TORTURED THEIR VICTIM.
Inhuman Brutality of q Crowd of Roughs in
Tallapoosa County, Alabama.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. Oct. "a special
from Lafayette records crime in Taila-
poosa county that has rarely been sur
passed in its horrible details. 1t seems
that while Mr.. Albert Smith and three old
est children had gone some miles to church,
five negroes approached the house and
asked Mrs. Smith to give them something
to eat. On being refused they went into the
house, and, learning there was no one home
but Mrs. Smith, they forced her into the
yard and began ransacking the house.
After appropriating all they could find
in the way Of money and valuables, they
set fire to the house and added horror to
the terrible scene by forcing the distracted
woman to witness the most brutal of deeds,
which was the tossing of her little baby in
the air and letting it fall back almost on
the point of sharp knives which they held
under 1T. The brutes finally needed tho
frantic woman's entreaties and went away,
leaving her with nothing to greet the re-
turn of her husband and children but her
half dead baby and smouldering heap of
Goals. People for miles around have been
searching for the villains. and at last ac-
counts three Of the negroes had been capt
ured.

A STATESMAN'S WOOING.
Romantic Clandestme Marriage of Congress
man Abner Taylor, of Illinois.

CHICAGO. Oct. 22.-The friends, generally.
of Congressman Abner Taylor. of the First
district. are surprised somewhat at the in
telligence now made public that the states
man had taken unto himself wife. and
furthermore, that there is an interesting
story thereunto belonging. In fact. Mr..
Taylor's wedding has all the elements of the
Clarissa Harlowe romance. love. unrelent-
ing opposition by the stern. heartless male
parent. clandestine meetings, hazardous
experiments, roughened pathways, flight,
secret vows plighted before an unknown
and cloaked priest. and final success at

of Col. A. T.. Babcock. well known politi-
cally, and at present prominent candidate
for the United States marshalship for the
district of Northern Illinois.
Mr.. Taylor has for long time been as
siduous in his suit for the hand of Miss
Babc0ck, but his attentions were unhappily
frowned down by the Colonel But Cupid's

A MOB OF PIOUs INCLINATIuNS.
Prayers and Religious Services at the Lynch
ing Of Berrier in North Carolina.

COLUMBIA. s. c., Oct. 22.-Some very
curious facts in connection with the recent
lynching of young Robert Berrier. for the
murder of his mOther-in-law, near Lexing-
ton, N. c.. have just come to light. A
party who witnessed the hanging says
Berrier was taken from the Jail at 7:30 and
Immediately carried to the outskirts of
the town under large oak tree. Here the
mob stopped, and asked the prisoner
if he was ready to die. Ber
rier said he would be if he knew he
would meet his wife and babe in heaven.
The mob then informed him that he would
be allowed time to prepare for death.
About this time q drummer who was in
town came upon the scene and asked to be
allowed to pray with the condemned man.
His request was granted and he knelt
down by the side of Barrier and prayed
very fervently that God would save his soul
During the prayer many hearty "amens'
and such responses as Lord grant it, ETC..
went up from the mob. For more than
three hours praying and regular religious
services were conducted. A few minutes
before midnight Berrier expressed his
willingness to die. He was then placed
upon horse with rope about his neck,
and. asan appropriate hymn was raised,
the horse was led from under him and the
body left dangling in the air.

Boldness of the Trade In Zanxibar--Backed
by q Powerful English Firm.
LONDON, Oct. 22.-Letters from Zanzibar
received at the Office of the Anti-Slavery
Society here, report that the buying and
selling of human chattels in the streets of
that city are being carried on with scarcely
an attempt at concealment. Weekly mar
kets are held, at which the slaves are
boldly exposed to the gaze of intending
buyers, and. in many cases. each slave car
ries placard suspended from his neck.
upon which is written the price at which
he can be bought. The women are not
usually ticketed in this. way, but are sold
for what they will fetch, the ordinary
price being from f6 to 91O each, if they are
young. The merchants who carry on the
traffic are all Arabs. but it appears to be
well understood in Zanzibar that "a rich
firm of traders, every member of which
halls from England, furnish all the capital
to conduct the business. and thai by far
profits is derived from this traffic. All the
local officials in Zanzibar are said to be in
the pay OF this firm. who purchase i'm
munity by bribing the authorities. from
the highest to the lowest, and so complete
Is their influence that no complaint re-
ceives the slightest attention. To illustrate
the openness with which the traffic is car
ried on. it is pointed ont that the receipts
of slaves every week are publicly an
nounced by placards upon the walls OF the
houses The letters complain that the rep
resentatives in Zanzibar of the different
European governments appear to take no
interest whatever in these matters.

SENATE PATRONAGE.

The Old Order of Things Likely to Re Much
Disturbed by the New Members.
Special TO the Indianapolis journal
WAsHINToN, Oct. 22.-The Senate viii be
reorganized just before time for it to con-
vene in December. The only question
about its result is as to whether the present
Sergeant-at-arms and some other high off,
GERS will be superseded by new men. The
introduction of eight new Senators, from
the four new States. will make the reorgan-
ization quite interesting, and will bring
about an almost complete rearrangement
of ofice-holders. Many of the old men.
who have been held in inferior positions.
will undoubtedly be asked TO give way
to new men, that the new Sem
ators may be given their share of
the patronage. 1t is understood that the
present Sergeant-at-arms is calculating 10
give TO each of the new Republican Sena-
tors one position worth from 81 200 TO 81, 300
year. This the new Senators will not
consent to, as there are many of the old
Senators who ere given patronage under
the Sergeant-aG-arms and under the Seere-
tary of the Senate aggregating away up IN
the thousands, some of them having twice
as much patronage as their own salaries
aggregate. The demands of the new Sena-
tors will undoubtedly cause great deal OF
chagrin. and very rightly will dispose of a
number of barnacles who have been bob
bing along on the old ship of state for
good many years. The general impression
is that a new Sergeant-at-arms will be
elected, although Colonel Canady. the
present officer. has many friends, and quite
number of them will demand his reten-
tion.
The mere fact that Senator has served
long term of years does not license him
to demand the lions share of the patronage.
All should be treated alike they say. The
new Senators will demand that the fact
that nearly all of the old Senator'S have
chairmanships shall be considered in con-
nection with the distribution OF the patron
age.
The difficulty that Sergeant-at-arms Can
ady will have on his hands will. In large
degree. be experienced by Secretary Nc
Cook. This officer seems TO have divided
the patronage to suit his personal wishes,
and there are Senators who have no repre-
sentation under him. The organization of
the Senate and the incoming of eight new
Senator'S will make quite change in the
operations of that body.

His Dream of Bliss Ended.

CLEVELAND. o., Oct. 22.-Early in Sep
tember Albert b. Crenshaw and Alice Grace
Wilson ran away from Tawas City, Mich,
and on arriving in Detroit were married.
After the ceremony they came to Cleve-
land and put up at the Hollenden. where
they have since remained. at a cost of S10
per day. Mrs. Crenshaw is an heiress, q
beautiful woman and but nineteen years
old. In June. 1888. Crenshaw was married
to Miss Jennie Evans. at Chattanooga
Tenn. Miss Evanss home was in Oberlin
o.. a few miles west of Cleveland, and she
had some property, which Crenshaw de-
manded as soon as he married her. Not
getting it, he deserted her. She applied
for divorce, and three weeks before it was
granted her he married Miss Wilson. Mrs
Crenshaw heard all this to-day. She was
quite equal to the occasion, for she imme-
diately hired an attorney. swore out war
rant for Crenshaw's arrest, and tonight he
is snug and tight in the county Jail. She
declares that she will prosecute him to the
end, and see that he goes to the peniten-
tiary.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-The meeting here
tomorrow of the delegates from the various
States and Territories, and the commercial
bodies in the large cities throughout the
country, to the convention of the National
Board of Promotion of the Three Americas
Exposition, promises to be a great success.

ors of many cities will be here, and some of
them have already arrived. The business
of the meeting will consist. principally. in
devising the most efficient methods of action
on Congress at its coming session. They.
the work already done. and will
learn how widespread is the feeling all
over the country that the only proper home
for national exposition is the national
capital.
In the evening there will be banquet,
at which there will be q number of toasts
and terse. pithy responses. An entirely
new reason was given to-day, In addition
exposition should be held in Washington.
One feature of this exposition. which is to
commemorate the four-hundredth anni-
versary of the. discovery of America by
Christopher Columbus. will be the unveil-
ing of statue of Columbus. To witness
this event Congress will undoubtedly in
vite the Presidents of the fifteen South
American republics and the Emperor Of
Brazil, all of whose nations naturally
feel as deep an interest in
the event as we. Then. too. tho
King and Queen of Italy will be invited.
for Columbus was an Italian by birth. and
Italy isvery proud of him now. The Queen
of Spain, too. will be invited. Indeed, the
Spanish government has intimated its viii
ingness to be invited, for when DIR. Curry
was minister to Spain he was informed That
the Spanish government proposed to prop
erly celebrate the discovery of America.
and that the government would be very
glad to cooperate with the United Ststes
in the proper celebration of the event
Now. suppose these people should come
here, where would be the proper place for
the President and Congress to meet them.

Facts Learned by the Court OF Inquiry ~
Jefferson Barracks. ~ rrgqH
WASHINGTON, Oct. 22.-The report of the
army court of inquiry, which investigated
the charges made with regard to the treat
ment of recruits at Jefferson Barracks, No..
has been laid before Secretary Proctor by
Captain Ebstein, member of the court,
who came on here for the purpose. The re-
port consists of a voluminous mass of testi-
mony and a summary of the eyi-
dence. No recommendations or opin-
ions are contained in the report.
The testimony taken showed that
the charges made were exaggerated, but that
there were some foundation for part Of
them. The charges of extreme cruelty to-
wards the enlisted men were not proved.
It was found that the food given the men
was badly cooked and poorly served The
rations were ample and the supply of vege-
shown, however. that too much coffee and
sugar had been saved and turned over to
the commissary for its equivalent In money,
and that the messes had not been conducted
judiciously. There was no misappropria-
tion Of this money and it was all placed to
the credit of the different messes.
The charges that non-commissioned off,
GERS were taking advantage of the recruits.
and were running games of chance. such as
stud-poker and chnckaluck. and thereby
getting part of the monthly wages of the
men, were sustained. Only one case Of
which il might be termed harsh treatment
by the n-commissioned officers was dis
covered. and this part of the allegations
practically fell to the ground. The asser-
tion that men were strung mp by the thumbs
in the guard-hou was disproved. although
il had basis. Drunken and refractory
prisoners were placed in a large cage and
their wrists handcuifed on the outside Of
the bars. The statemsnts of Mr.. Wood
ward, the reporter who enlisted and wrote
up the story of the treatment of the men.
were found to be reliable so far as they con-
ceTnsd matters within his knowledge. but
the stories told him by other enlisted men
could not be substantiated.
