Robber Becounized

ATLANTA, Ga, July 17.-Startling de-
velopments came to light to-day in the case
of THO attempted robbery of the Richmond
and Danville pay car. Paymaster Grosser
he's made public statement that he saw
and recognized in one of the robbers
Charles Rose, formerly yard-master In the
Richmond and Danyille Railroads employ
here. His statement creates great sem
sation. Rose murdered his wife
under horrible circumstances about
a year ago, and was the cause
of the death of Clara Scruggs at Gaines
}e1ile, Ga, a month since. Rose has been
hiding, and is thought to have organized a
regular band of outlaws who have been
committing depredations in this city late
ly. 1t is learned Tonight that one of the
men now in custody is brother-in-law of
Rose The police have a clue to Roses
whereabouts, and an attempt will be made
to arrest him tonight. 1t is believed he
will resist arrest and will sell his life
dearly.

Joseph Palmer, the Murderer OF william
Kirk. Executed at Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI, July 16.-The execution OF
Joseph Palmer, colored, yesterday morning,
is the last that can take place in this county
under the present law, which designates the
Ohio penitentiary as the place for all future
executions.
Palmers crime was the murder of Will
lam Kirk in his stable in the afternoon Of
December "a, 1888. The object of the crime
was robbery. William Bener and Palmer,
both of whom had been employed by Kirk,
were almost Immediately arrested and both
confessed. each charging the other with
having struck the fatal blow. It was the
verdict in Berners case, manslaughter, that
was the chief melting cause of the riot in
which the court house was burned March,
1884 Berner is now in the Ohio peniten-
tiary serving out his sentence of twenty
years.
Palmer has been unusually stoical though
he has recently permitted the ministrations
of Catholic priests. The execution was pri-
vate in the Jail yard, the scaffold being
shielded from view by the stone wall and a
large awning. A large number OF people
were in the adjacent streets which were
guarded by the police. Promptly at ten
o'clock, the condemned was led on the
scaffold where short prayer was said by 9
priest. Palmer said nothing. The deputy
sheriffs were so excited that they could
scarcely adjust the rope. At two minutes
after ten the drop fell, but Palmer was suct
powerful young fellow that his neck wa:
not broken. He writhed fearfully and a
the end of twenty-six minutes the sheriff
announced that the execution was over, bu
the body was not cut down until some tint
later.

SIX CHILDREN BURNED.
a Terrible Calamity In Western
Pennsylvania.
5he Parents Look Helplessly on While
Their Dariings Suffer q Horrible Death.

! PITTSBURGH, Pa, July 17.-Last night,
about IL O'Clock, the residence of Josiah M.
Evans, a small two-story log hut, three
miles from Grahampton, Clearfield County,
was destroyed by fire, and six of his child
rem, ranging in age from six to fifteen
years, cremated. Evans was awakened by
strange noises, and under the impression
thza burglars were about, took his gun and
went outside to investigate. To his hor-
Tor he discovered his humble dwelling
in flames, He quickly gave the alarm, but
before be could reach his six children, who
were sleeping on the second floor, the roof
fell In, and in q few minutes the building
was all ablaze. His wife and three younger
children, sleeping on the lower floor, were
taken out safely, but the parents were
forced to see the others perish in the
flames. This morning intelligenceof the
fearful calamity spread rapidly through
out the county, and hundreds of people were
soon drawn to the scene. The mangled
remains of four of the children, charred
and unrecognizable, were gathered up and
buried in one coffin. The other two were
apparently burned to ashes, as no trace of
their remains could be found. The parents
are crazed with grief, and the whole COM
munity is excited over horror which has
no precedent in Clearfield County. The
father insists that the fire was undoubtedly
the work of an incendiary, and in this
opinion others share.
