Horrible Accident.

Yesterday afternoon q new engine,

michael, de <tined to be used on the Salt
Lake Division of the G. P. Railroad.

Doom of Brooks, alias Maxwell
Sealed by the Governor of
Missouri.

ST. LOUIS, July IA special from
Topeka, Kansas, says that all persons
concerned in the Moore habeas corpus
case appeared in court this morning, and
after some talk the matter was postponed
until o-morrow to give Moore's attorneys
time TO examine requisition papers and
the warrant issued upon them by Cover
nor Martin, of Kansas. Mrs. Norton
says that she shall not go back to st.
Louis with Moore, and that she can never
return to that city. intend to go,she said,
to some quiet place and remain there for
year at least, or until my means give
out. After that 1 shall go back to the
stage. l can easily support myself by
acting, but 1 shall not do that until l am
obliged to. l have not decided yet where
shall go, but it will be some retired,
quiet place. She appears to be honestly
fearful of going where her husband will
be likely to meet her, as she has a mortal
dread that he will kill her.
About noon warrant was served on
Mrs. Norton by Constable Davis, charging
her with violating the laws of Kansas in
the relation of marriage, by living with a
man not her husband, at the Copeland
hotel. She was then separated from
Moore and assigned to another room.
The warrant was issued against Moore as
we'll as Mrs. Norton, but the former
being already in the custody of the Off
GERS, it was not served on him. 1t is
thought Mrs. Norton will plead guilty to
the charge and receive a medium fine of
| $500.

CONFESSION.
Kelly and McGllvray, Hoge's
Clerks, Gave Him Away.
Sensational Statements.
The Mystery of the Man Sewers,
Solved-Rascality of Hoge.
Negro Lynched.

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE most sensational
development in the Burlington conspiracy
case is the confession of John j. Kelly
and John Il. McGilvray, clerks respect
lively to Chairman Hoge, of the striking
engineers grievance committee, and
Chairman Murphy, of the fremen's COM
mittee.
"Kelly and McGilvray were arrested
last evening"" said Inspector Bonfield late
last night. "When arrested they sent for
me. went to see them at the armory,
where they had been taken, first sending
word to Mr.. Stone that l presumed they
wanted to talk. He came, bringing At
torney Collier with him. We consulted
with them. They appeared to be
very nice young men; intelligent and
honest. They told us fully pof their
connection with the circular. Then, as a
result of confidence, they wrote out all
they knew, and 1 can say that their state
ments were perfectly satisfactory to Mr..
Stone and Mr.. Collier. 1 had to leave
before the statements were fully COM
pleted, but understand that they settled
satisfactorily and beyond possibility of
a doubt the authorship of the Sal-soda
and Emery circular. 1t also settles who
John Sewers is, the man none of the re-
porters could find. According to this
statement" continued the inspector,
"Sowers is Hoge. When the circular was
sent to the different divisions inquiries
as to its authenticity we're received in
members from chief engineers who doubt
whether such a radical circular could be
sent out by Hoge, and asking if 1T was
genuine. Both these young men answered
a number of these inquiries invariably,
saying by direction of Hoge, that the cir
cular was all right. Letters addressed to
John Sewers and left at the National hotel,
were taken by Hoge into the committee
rooms in the Grand Pacific, and there
answered by these men under Hoge's in
structions."
"Where are those men now?"
"They are not in Jail, but have gone
into voluntary retirement" answered the
inspector.
"rheir statements were clear and sue
cine ,"said Attorney Collier, ,and gave an &C.
count of their connection with the circular
in the hands of private individuals max
ing statements which were sworn to before
a notary public. All we have to say is
that they are entirely satisfactory to Mr.

Second-That affusion, or sprinkling, is
scripturel baptism.
Third-That Christ will never have q

Ditzler affirms and DIR. Teas, in behalf OF

DR.. Ditzler has not as yet accepted,
hence the result cannot be given.

An Attempt to Make Another Hayti In
An Arkansas County.
MEMPHIS, July 12.-It was reported here
yesterday that serious trouble is brewing
between the whites and blacks in Critten-
den county, Ark, which lies opposite
Memphis on the Mississippi river. The
negroes in Crittenden county outnumber
the whites five to one. AS consequence,
large majority of blacks control the
legal affairs. Marion and every other
town within the boundary lines of the
county is presided over by negro official.
Out of the twenSy magistrates there are
only two whites. The chairman, clerk
and judge of the county court are all
negroes, and even the representatives are
colored men.
For several years here has been much
bad feeling between the two races, the
whites charging the majority of the black
officeholders with outrages upon law.
Last year Judge W. d. Lewis, colored,
county court judge, and David Ferguson,
his clerk, were indicted for habitual
drunkenness. Their trial will take place
in few days. and threatened trouble is
the outgrowth of this fact. The present
grand jury is composed of white men, and
fuel is added to the flame by the report
that that they intend to investigate the
official career of a number of oOlored men
besides those mentioned. 1t is claimed
that five days ago half dozen prominent
planters were notified, through their
colored servants, that their lives
were in danger, as the negroes
were determined to drive the white people
out of the country or kill them. Warn
ings we're sent to various white men
through the postoffice at Marion, giving
them five days in which to leave under
penalty of death.
Ooe of these missives was received by
the sheriff of the county, white repub-
lican. The white people have therefore
been prepared. Governor Hughes has
been notified of the state of affairs, and
seventy five Winchester rifles were sent
over from this city. conflict is likely
to occur at any time. Should one occur
it is feared that many lives will be taken.

Communication Refused

ST. LOUIS, July l2.-The governor this
morning rendered a decision declining to
grant Communication of the sentence against
Hugh M. Brooks, alias Maxwell, but
granted respite for four weeks.
The first news that young Brooks re-
ceived this morning was that the governor
had simply granted him respite for
twenty one days. This was construed To
meau that the governor intended to take
time fully to examine the case Later
Brooks received telegram from his at
torneys announcing the respite of four
weeks, and stating that the governor re-
fused to commute the sentence or inter-
fere in the matter. This was sad blow
to Brooks, and he said he could
not understand it. He had felt
confident that the governor Would sec his
way clear to grant the oOmmutation, but

inquire into his condition, while pages
were sent to and fro by other members

When the occasion seemed to require it,
Mrs. Lancaster, the eldest daughter of Mr.

the necessary Information to callers. She
appeared to be more cheerful than
yesterday and showed a confident belief
that her father would recover from the
attack. He has rested quietly during the
morning and has taken and apparently
assimilated liquid nourishment. At NO
time has he been unconscious, and that he
maintains his interest in outward events
is shown by the fact that he has asked for
newspapers-a request which could not
of course, be complied with, owing to the
rather warning reports of his illness
which appear in the leading columns OF

THE Law OF CONSPIRACY.
Practical Application of the Ruling in
the Anarchist Cases.

CHICAGO July 1.-The rulings OF Law
in the anarchist case by Judge Gary that
sent Spies and his comrades to the gal
lows, were tried to-day by another Chicago
judge, Kirk House, against the agents, at.
:crneys and chief officials of one of the
wealthiest corporations in the country.
The offense in this case was attempted
jury bribing, and the main offender, Sum-
ner @. Welch, claim agent of the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy railway, is
sentenced to term behind the prison
bars, while G. B. Holmes, president of the
company, and @. M. Hardy, the company's
attorney, are recommended to be dealt
with by the grand jury.
Judge House holds that the conspiracy
rulings in the anarchist case applied as
well to any other conspiracy. In render
ing his decision this morning he sent
Welch TO Jail for six months, and held
that it was not necessary Holmes or Hardy
should have done any positive or affirma-
tive act, or be present when it was done,

COTTON BAGGING.
Manufacturers and Dealers Getting Up a
Corner to Raise Prices.

New YORK, July 11.-Tns Times says:
Manufactures and dealers in cotton bag
giug have formed combination for the
purpose of controlling the market and
putting up prices. AL hough the associa-
ton is not exactly in the nature of a trust,
it will in all probability have much the
same effect that the sugar combine has
among refiuers. There are 10 the United
States about thirteen large establishments
where bagging is made for supplying
planters and packers with coverings for
baled cotton. At the offices of the Now
England and Brooklyn manufacturers in
this city, it was stated that manufacturers
and dealers were refusing to sell large
amounts of bs2ging until they can regu.
late the prices to suit themselves. The
attitude of the combine has caused a
great deal of unessiness among cotton
men in the south, and the latter are en-
deavoring to devise some practical method
to arrest the advance in prices and break
up the corner in the market. Consumers
who wish to put in supply before the
approaching busy season may be com
PEELED to wait until late in August before
they can get their orders filed.
