The Missouri delegation, composed of
S. G. Rogan, E. F. Rogers and W. G.
Bronaugh, who are interested in secur-
ing pardon for Bob Younger, spent
Sunday in the city, and on Yesterday
went to meet an appointment at Min
neapolis. They will again return to
Saltwater in few days, expecting soon
to start for their homes, in the mean
time making their headquarters at the
Merchants hotel, st. Paul. These gen.
tlemen, during their visit to Mime
sofa, have supplemented the tremend-
Gus Missouri petition by the personal
Endorsements and letters secured from
many prominent people of Faribault
county and other parts of the state,
whom they have visited for the purpose.
So far as the number and prominence
of the people whose influence has thus
been secured here are concerned, the
documents are of an exceedingly form
liable character. In casual converse
ton Sunday, Col. Rogers said that at
one time he, in common with many
other Missouri people. had no particle
of consideration for the Youngers, but
have been convinced by actual demon
stration that they have been accused of
crimes of which they were wholly inno-
cent. and with which they had not even
remote connection.
