A TIMELY APPEAL
For Mercy Prevents Mob from Complet-
ing Its Horrible Vengeance.

ing Its Horrible Vengeance.
STEEEyILLE, Mo-, October 1.-Eyer
since B. F. Wallace was brought here un-
der arrest for the murder of the Logan
family, there have been threats of lynch
ing and rumors of plans on foot for carry
ing the threats into execution. At IL
o'clock last night it seemed as if Wallace
would never come before legal court and
that lynch law would dispose of his case.
At the above hour an organized body oi
masked men marched to the jail, where
Wallace is confined, and demand an en-
trance of the Sheriff The Sheriff refused
to admit them, and appealed to them to
disperse and let the law take its course.
His appeals and threats, however, amount
ed to naught with the determined men,
and with q shout they rushed at the jail
gate, which gave way under the strain.
A guard was placed at the entrance and a
few selected men proceeded to Wallace's
cell and dragged him forth, when they
were met by cries from the mob, Hang
him. "Stretch him upn Lynch himn'
More dead than alive, Wallace was led
under tree in the Court House yard and
rope was placed about his neck. He
was told that he had but few minutes to
live and that if he wanted to say anything
he had better hurry up. Wallace then
made statement stOutly protesting his
innocence, and claiming that Sam Vaughn,
colored, to whom reference was made in
these dispatches yesterday, was the muir
derer of the Logan family and had given
him (Wallace) $50 to keep the secret. At
this the mob hOoted and yelled, and at the
word the rope was thrown over limb and
Wallace was suspended in mid-air. He
was held there few minutes and then let
down again, the mob still hOoting that he
would confess.
1t was several minutes before the halt
dead man could regain strength enough to
talk, but when he did, his denial of the
crime and proteStation Of innocence was as
firmly made as before The crowd by this
time greatly increased, and many calls for
mercy was heard. Col. A. j. Zay, q man
greatly respected in the town, was called
upon to address them. He responded, and
advised the mob to dcSist and allow the
law to take its course. The Sheriff and
Others followed in the same vain, the mob
lost its vim, and the prisoner was deliver
ed to the Sheriff, who replaced him in his
cell, The crowd then dispersed.

is thought that the Court will allow the
motion.
Judge Johnson is still confined mt his
home in Irinton by sickness, and it is not
known when he will resume his place
upon the bench. AS the political com
plexion of the court, at present, is equally
