BERNER AT LOvELAND.
/
How He Made His Escape Through the
Utter FoOlashness of the HAD Mob.
COLUMBUS, o., March 29.-The train
men and passengers who arrived here
after midnight give the following &C.
count of the mob at Loveland and Nor
row, and the effort TO get Berner, the
murderer, to Columbus. The two depu4
ties with Berner drove from Cincinnati
over 70 Linwood and there took the &C.
commodation for Loveland. This part
of the Journey was made without an &C
cident. Joe Moses was then TO go to
the Little Miami depot. where he quietly
boarded the train for Columbus and TO
Join the two deputies and
Berner at LoYeland. When
the Little Miami train pulled into Love-
land BeIner was placed on the ear next
to the sleeper. The two deputies sat
near him, but did not have him fastened
/ TO them. Joe Moses sat in the next car
in advance. As the train came to stop
bowling mob of nearly 800 men made
q dash for the cars, yelling, "There
he is; catch himi" Some of
the men were masked, but most
of them were not. They climbed in all
| the cars, but most of them broke for the
one in which Moses was seated. One OF
/ the deputies who had been detached to
watch Berner sprang from his seat and
started for the front end OF the car. Tue
crowd thought IT was Berner trying to
escape, aud bouncing on him
threw him to the ground
| snd beat and almost killed
him, before the mistake was discovered.
Berner had sprsng from his seat but in
a tempting TO jump from the platform
be fell headlong TO the ground. 1t was
doubtless this accident that prevented
the crowd from recognizing him. The
train boy who was standing on the
platform at the time says Berner walked
/ around the car and entered again
from the rear end. Meantime
| the wild mob had discovered their mis-
take and were even more Infatuated than
before. Berner walked two-thirds of the
way through the car, when one of the
deputies who had seen him jump from
| the train, cried There he goes; now
catch him" Immediately Berner started
on the run, and sgain jumped from
the train, which, by this time
had started to pull out from
the station. One of the deputies ran
| after him, while the one who had been
mistaken for Berner was still held by
| the crowd. Joe Moses aud third dep
uty remained on the train The train
men do not think Berner was captured,
but that he escaped to the fields. When
the first section of train No. that had
been attached at Loveland pulled into
| Morrow another mob was waiting to cap
ture the prisoner. This mob was com
posed of $50 or 200 men, only part of
whom were masked. Before the train
stopped the mob jumped upon the
engine, into the cars and on
the steps, eager to get a
position to see the murderer. Some
of the men attempted to fierce the engi-
neer 10 stop the train before it got into
town in order that they could swing
Berner from the bridge near by. They
hunted through the passenger, baggage
and sleeping cars, completing
their search just as the train
pulled away from the town. Morrow IS
few miles northeast of LoVeland.
Moses and his deputy got off here,
and were SO excited they could hardly
speak. The second section of the train,
which starts from Cincinnati about fif-
teen minutes after the first, witnessed
almost the same scene that had
been enacted before at LdVeland.
The wild crowd was still yelling and
searching for Berner. Many men rush
ed upon the train thinking perhaps an
attempt would be made to smuggle him
through.
AS the train pulled out cries were
heard saying the search would be con,
tinued. until day light, when the fugi-
tive would easily be recognized. at
Morrow the mob was again at the
depot waiting for the second
section and when 1t arrived the same
frenZied effort was made to discove I
the object of their search.
Passengers and train men on the Sec
ond section gave the same thrilling &C
counts that were given before and stated
the excitement was increasing.
Colonel Hunt telegraphed the
and his excelleney will remain
!
troops if necessary.
Col. Hunt made reQuisItion on the
adjutant general for 500 rounds OF ball
cartridges, and they we're sent to Ciucln
Rati on the first train.
Passengers on the morning and
noon trains from Cincinnati state
that the most intense excitement
exists all along the way, large crowds
being gathered at the stations and
threats are made against the deputy
sheriffs that they would suffer If the J
did not succeed IN their scouting about
| the country to produce Berner or show
> that he had been put out of the way.
IT LOOKS VERY SERIOUS.
