Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-10-29

Intelligence from Lincoln county, West
Virginia, is to the effect that more trouble
will follow the double lynching OF the other
night. Friends of both parties are in arms
and blood is expected to flow at any time.
WHEELING, October 28.-Lincoln county,
or at least that part of it around the county
seat, is now in ferment of excitement con-
cerning the fearful tragedy enacted within
the borders Of the county Thursday night.
There is quite degree of interest mani
tested to get accurate details of
the double killing at Green Shoals
on the above night. Intelligence from that
section is meager, but enough is known to
satisfy the most credulous that Green,
Mccoy and Milt Haley were riddled with
bullets on the night in question by an or
ganized force numbering 60 determined
men.
The latest report direct, and from re-
liable man, is to the effect that Mccoy and
Haley implicated other prominent parties
in the Brumfeld tragedy, alleging
that they were hired to kill
Little Al Brumfeld, his wife and Paris
Brumfeld, aud that they received $500, or
were to when the job was completed. The
attempt on "Little AL" and his wife is well
known, and the reason thst the programme
was not fully carried out was because the
Brumfelds were too
HOT ON THE TRACKS
of the assassips. The report further saws
