BRANSCOMBE ExONERATED.

The Kansas Prohibition Committee Acquit
Him of Certain Serious Charges.
LAWRENCE, Kan, Oct 2.-Prohibitionists
are now making strenuous efforts to acquit
BranscOmbe of the charges that have been
made against him. Thursday evening the
State Central Committee of the Prohibition
party held a meeting and after listening to
Mr.. BranScombe's story, and considering
his excuses for the damaging charges, made
the following report:
LAWRENCE. KAN, Sept 30, 1885.
The State Central Comm ittee % the Prohi-
bition party having been called together TO
consider certain allegations in an equity
proceeding, on file in the district court OF
Douglas County, KAN, against {. H. BranS-
cOmbe, candidate for Governor on the Pro-
hibition ticket, meet in due form. After
careful Investigation we find that the COM
paint, as published, which on it's face ap-
pears 10 reflect on the Christian character
and integrity of our candidate, is purely per-
sonal and confined wholly TO his family
statute of limitation he was actuated by an
honest desire to do justice to his family as
whole. We also find that Mr.. BranscOmbe
had, several years ago, placed his property
in his wife's hands for this same pur-
pose. Altogether, the committee, efter
due elaboration and inquiry, are uuan.
imous in the belief that Mr. Brans-
cOmbe is innocent of any act of injustice
We believe he will pass through this ordeal
without stain, and is rather to be commend
ed for unselhshneSs than condemned for
wrongdong. BY order of the committee

STEELvIILE, Mo-, Oct. Am attempt
was made to lynch Il. p. Wallace who
was arrested in st. Louis, on sus-
piciOn, for the horrible murder
Of the Logan family. He was in
dicted for murder and arson, and at mid
night on Wednesday mob of masked men
coming from the direction of Cuba sur
rounded the Jail in the court house yard.

refused to give him up. The doors were then
broken down and Wallace led out to a
tree and a rope placed around his neck.
The crowd called on him to confess,
and he told a story fastening the
crime on another man, Sam Vaughan.
The crowd denounced it as 8 lie
and shouted, ''String him up" He was
suspended for a minute and then let down
upon the earnest appeal of Judge Leayy
and the sheriff. Wallace was hustled back
to the Jail in fainting condition.
