HORRIBLE REVELATION.
Inhuman Treatment BY Father of His
Children.


ST. LOUIS, December 1Sth-A horrible tale of
alleged barbarous cruelty by George A. Guen-
ther, the old man who was slain by his l6-year-
old son yesterday, was related today by Chas.
Guenther, the elder brother of the murderer.
The sons story brands the dead man as q Eend
incarnate, who delighted in acts of inhumanity
toward his children. Among other barbarises
alleged was ehaining up the children in dis
NAL apartment nude, and while in that condi-
tion tortdring them with all cruelty imaginable.
Il have not lived at home for five years" said
Charles Guenther. Il left home after one
period of slow torture that made me desperate
had done something that my fsther did not
like. It was small offense. The way my
father tortured me would make one believe he
was either crazy orl had committed some terrible
crime. My father made me go upstairs with
him to a room in the back part of the house
Here he brought out some chains and when
caught sight of them set up an Outcry; but no
one heard me. My father shouted to me to stop
that Internal noise. and when he found he could
not frighten me he jumped at me and we
had regular fight. Finally he got the better
of me, and by threatening TO do me even greater
violence, compelled me to keep quiet. 4hen he
began to bind me with those chains. When /
thought he had done, he took up another one
and fastened it around my neck and fixed it so
| could hardly move my head. Then he left me
several hours, during which suffered horribly.
After few hours he came upstairs with a
bottle of whisky. He released me from the
chains and compelled me to strip from head to
foot, until stood nude before him. Then he
chained me up and took good sized pin and
commenced pricking me with it from head to
foot, until was bleeding all over. My father
then wet his finger from the bottle and
rubbed over what seemed to me every
sore he had made on my body. He did not rub
over my whole body at once. but would rub over
a small space until all the stuff had been rubbed
in, when he would wet his fingers again and
begin on another place The pain was terrible
and excruciating. I must have tainted, for
remained Ill that room all night, chained up
and did not know anything until next morning
when was released. After thst l ran away"
The boy Emile, who is held for beating his
father to death, acts like an imbecile and is
belived to have been driven insane by the cru
city of the father and the tragedy Yesterday
To day he failed to rec gnize his own brother
and when appealed to, almost supplicatingly
for recognition, only silly smile played about
the murderer's mouth.

THE STATE CITRUS FAIR.
The People of Sacramento Ought to At
tend and Contribute.
From the Sacramento Themis ]

From the Sacramento Themis
The State Citrus Fair, to be held at Oro-
vile, beginning on January 7th, deserves
immediate attention at the hands of our
county and city authorities. TO the end that
this county make proper arrangements for
a creditable exposition of the citrus and
other products of Sacramento county.
With US il is matter of obligation as well
as duty, for the reason that on every recur-
ring State Fair we call to our assistance the
energy and resources of our neighboring
counties, and from none comes a more
willing and liberal response than from the
county of Butte. Now that the appeal
comes from the other side, let us prove our
selves as ready to give as to receive. Oro-
vile was Justly entitled to the honor of
having held within her walls, so to speak,
the first Northern State Citrus Fair. Hav.
ing at her own expense held for two sue
cessive years citrus fairs that attracted the
| attention of the whole Union, and being
herself in the midst of one of the grandest
citrus sections in the world, the selection
was indeed happy one. At that place
preparations for the coming exhibit are be-
| ing pushed rapidly. The frame for the
| immense pavilion extends the full length
of the Courthouse yard, and incloses many
growing trees loaded with luscious golden
| fruit. 1t will be covered with canvas, and
that protection will be more than ample.
The premium list includes awards for first,
second, third, fourth and fifth best county
exhibits, with prizes from $500 down, and
| proportionally liberal prizes for individual
| exhibitors, several thousands Of dollars be-
| ing subject to distribution. The railroad
| company has manifested its disposition TO
| farther the citris fair interests by announe-
ing its intention to carry all articles for ex-
position there at half rates, and no. 2oabi
| liberal excursion rates will be made for
passenger travel. Ouc citizens should also
contribute to the success of the fair by per-
sonal attendance and in addition, to the
exposition in itself, the extent OF the growth
of orange culture, Is exempli6ea by the
| extensive groves of Thermalito and
| Palermo, will prove beneficial surprise
even to those who have in measure en-
| dsavored to keep themselves posted regard
! ing the growth of citrus fruits IN Northern
/ California.

TROUBLE AHEAD.
The Western States Railway Association
Dissolved.

CHICAGO, December lsth.-The Western States
Railway Passenger Association was dissolved at
a meeting of the General Managers this after
noon. Ten days ago the matter of continuance
was put in the hands of the General Managers
because of the withdrawal of the membership
of the Burlington and Northern, Minneapolis
and st. Louis. These roads absolutely refused
to remain members unless the Wisconsin Cen
trail showed up its secret contracts on passenger
business, in accordance with their agreement
This the Wisconsin Central refused to do, and
to cap the climax, to-day absolutely refused to
remain a member of the Association unless it
was allowed differental fares, and unless the
fast trains on the direct Chicago and st. Paul
lines were withdrawn.
resolution was almost Immediately passed
dissolving the Association and throwing the
whole blame ION the preposterous demands of
one of the members" 1t was also voted impos-
sible TO form any new association unless the
Wisconsin Central moderated its demands.
The Western States Association has been the
largest and most important, in a rste-preserving
sense, of any passenger association in the
country. 1t is deemed almost impossible to
maintain rates without the influence of the
Association, and Western ard Southwestern
lines will undoubtedly form a new association,
leaving the northwestern lines to fight out their
own salvation.

Crnnin Jurors Trying to straighten Out
Their Records.

CHICAGO, December 1Sth.-A lively scene is re-
ported to have taken place at the stare Attor-
ney's Office this morning. Ex-Juror Culver
called on the States Attorney to have an am
icable talk over the criticisms that have been
poured on him since the return of the verdict in
the Cropin case. There was plenty talk but it
was not amicable. Judge Longenecker roasted"
Culver until he was done to turn, and then
turned him out. Longenecker refuses to say
exactly what language passed between them.
Juror Bryan followed upon the heels of Culver,
and was closeted with the States Attorney for a
long iime and it was whispered by some of the
assistants that he was going over the entire case
from the day he was selected until the finding
of the verdict. He says that Juror Culver was
not assaulted. He said the first ballot on the
guilt or innocence of the defendants stood about
half for conviction and half for acquittsl. The
second ballot leaving Beggs out, was eleven TO
one, and then ballots were taken on the other
defendants until it was seen that one man was
asking for the acquittai of all The verdict was
not reached until the Ihirty-frst ballot. Bryan
could not be coaxed iuto saying who was the
man who hung the jury.
