WRONG MAN HANGED.

Tramp Strung Up for the Assault on Miss
AtkinsOn-She Says He is Not the Man
Special to the Gazette.
GREENWOOD, Mo-, March 16.-Word
was brought in here this morning that
tramp was captured in the northern part
of Cass county by some farmers, and as
he answered the description of the man
who assaulted Miss Atkinson, he was
hung without ceremony. An investiga-
ton proved that the report was only
partly true. The man was caught, and
from the description that was given by
the young lady it is believed that the
right party has at last been captured.
The farmers who caught him were bring
ing him to this place for Identification,
when they were met by party Of young
men, who were told that the out
RACER of Miss Atkinson had been
captured. They at once insisted upon
stringing him up to make him confess
the crime and save the trouble of taking
him to the Atkinson farm. After much
heated argument on the subject this plan
was agreed upon and preparations were
ulAu6 u udUS I'll l6ilOH. n EOpS Was
placed around his neck and he was told
that he had only few minutes to live;
that if he had any confession to
make he would better do it at once
for that was his only chance. The tramp
strenuously enied having done anything
that meritted death, and begged to be
told what he was accused of. His pray
ers were unavaiIing. He was strung up
to limb of q tree, and he was almost
dead when he was cut down. When he
was revived he was told that the next
time meant death, but he still
persisted that he did not know
what it was they were accusing him of
and then wiser counsel prevailed, and he
was not subjected to further torture. He
was brought to this place this evening
and taken to the Atkinson farm, but the
young lady failed to identify him, and
he was released. 1t is the general i'm
preston that the girl will not identify
the man If he is brought before her, as
she is bitterly opposed to having him
hanged, although he came near causing
her death and treated her so brutally.

The Order for Trnnns.

FORT LEAvENwORTH, KAN. March 16.
Gen. Merritt has ordered SIX troops of
cavalry to proceed to the Cherokee Strip
and Dust the boomers there. Two troops
of cavalry have been ordered from each
of the three towns of Oklahoma City =,
Fort Reno and Fort Supply to proceed at
once to Guthrie. at that point the
forces will be united under
senior captain and con-
centrated movement on the settlers will
be made. The forces started from the
towns mentioned this morning and will
probably not ali arrive at Guthrie before
Monday night or Tuesday morning.
Lieut.. Dodge, staff officer of Gen. Mer-
rift, was dispatched yesterday from Fort
LeavenwOrth to the Strip to at once make
report by telegraph of the state OF affairs.
The troops at Fort Leavenworth will be
put in readiness to move should the re-
port from Lieut.. Dodge make such action
necessary. 1t was learned this morning
that Gen. Merritt has given instructions
for the troops to give the settlers ample
time to Tacate before resortiDg to forcible
measures. Under no circumstances will
such measurs be taken unless the boomers
being given full opportunity TO yacate,
refuse to leave. In any case the move
ment of the boomers will not be hasty.
A day or two will probably elapse after
the arrival OF the troops at Guthrie be-
fore the march to the Strip Is taken up.

Igo, manager of western cattle ranch,
while walking down Main street last
night. was shot through and through
with q 45-Colt's pistol by one E. F.

to G. NJ. Best, constable, and was jailed.
FURTHER PARTICULARS.
Special to the Gazette.
ALvARADo, Tex, March I6.-About
$3.50 last night G. c. Igo of Crosby
county was shot and dangerously
wounded by Ewen Cross. The wound
was made by 45-caliber Colts pistol,
and is an ugly one. From all we can
learn, 1t seems there was business rela-
tions between the two men and that i'll
feeling had been engendered. IgO came
in from Fort Worth Saturday morning
and started out to George Crump's
Gross father-in-law) residence, but
meeting Crump on the road be came
back to town with him. The two men,
lgo and Crump, were together off and on
during the day, and seemed TO be on
Rmicable terms, Igo finally giving Crump
q power of attorney to sell a lot OF horses
he Igo) it seems, had in Crump's pas
ture. Cross came into town about
shutdown, dusk, or perhaps later, and
tried to borrow pistol ''to kill man -
A bout train time Igo started tC walk
over to the Missouri, Kansas and Texas
depot and was shot from behind by Cross.
Cross says that he (Cross) didn t say q
word, but that as soon as he recognized
Igo he drew his pistol and fired. He
says that Igo attempted to criminally as
sault his wife on December 26, 1889, aud
is now under bond in Crosby county for
that Offense.
Igo says Cross forced his wife TO swear
that; that she is a perfect lady and a
virtuOus woman, and that the charge
was a matchmaking scheme upon the part
of Cross He says Cross wanted 10 get him
out of the way to prevent his appearing
against hin for certain Crookedness; that
the horses in Crump's pasture are his
Ogo's) property, and that Cross had
sold them to Crump (his extraordinarily
to pay for horses he, Cross, had bought
from Crump.
Both men are strangers here
Igo Is resting well and strong hope Is
expressed of his recovery.
Cross Is in custody OF the officers and
seems perfectly unconcerned.

THE BOOMERS.
Trying to Get Out OF the Strip as
Fast as They Went in.

They Feel Like.
Special to the Gazette.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. March 16.-Reports
from all along the line of the Cherokee
Strip now indicate that the boomers have
got over their first panic and have been
stricken with another. They were at
first afraid some one would keep them
out of the new territory, but now they
are afraid they can't get out quick
enough. Two nights sleeping out in the
Oren air with a scarcity of food and shell
ter has weakened their ardOr to re-
markable degree, and they are on the
back track by the thousand. The news
that the soldiers have been ordered out
to eject them has also had q marvellous
effect, when their
RECENT THREATS ARE CONSIDERED.
Specials from Hunuewell. Cald-
well and Kiowa show that
the tide has turned the other
way. The wagons and horsemen are
streaming back across the line into Kan
sas as rapidly as they went in for the
two previous days. They all deny that
they have come out for fear of the
troops, but say that they have staked off
their claims and are going for supplies or
for their folks. General Merritt has sent
orders for six troops of cavalry to rem
devious at Guthrie, and will be there to-
morrow morning and then proceed to the
Strip and eject every man, woman aud
child. The orders are to use everyone
kindly, but insist on their going at once.
Those who resist will be placed under ar
rest and
ESCORTED TO THE BORDER.
After the Strip is cleared the country
will be patrolled by troops to prevent
repetition of the invasion. Two troops
of cavalry from Fort Reno, two from
Fort Supply and two from Oklahoma,
have been ordered out and will probably
be under the command of Capt. CavR-
naugh, who is now in command at Okla
homa. The Oklahoma colonization or
CARNATIONS are laughing at the boomers
who rushed in against their advice,
and say that they now have pre-
served their secrets as far as their
locations are concerned and will stand
better show than the impatient ones who
rushed madly in spite of their warnings
Gen. Merritt has sent Lieut.. Dodge OF
his staff to the Strip to make personal
investigation and report. On this report
be based.
HAVEN g THE MEANS TO RETURN.
GUTHRIE, 1. T. March 10.-The presi-
dents proclamation ordering all settlers
on the Cherokee Strip to vacate is al
ready having the desired effect. This,
together with the orders received by
Gen. Merritt at Fort Leavenworth to use
troops if necessary to eject the boomers,
has already caused considerable of an
exodus from the forbidden territory. hu
day long trains were loaded down with
boomers leaving the Strip. A large
number of them went to Arkansas City,
and about 1000 came to this point. Many
poor people, who f1Ocked to the Cherokee
Strip under a wrong impression that it
was open to settlement. have not means
to return and will remain there until the
troops escort them out.

PARIS, TEX, March l5.-Yesterday
afternoon Hen. Ben Terrell of Alabama,
travelling representative of the National
Farmers Alliance, addressed d fair
sized audience at the county courthouse.
He is good speaker, and his hearers
were we'll peased with his remarks.
There was little new in what he said yet
he gave his brethren of the Alliance soms
practical and wholesome advice. He
said that the order was in no wise q
political one, and when an Alliance man
voted for another simply because he
belonged to It, he would prostitute and
ruin it. Mr.. Terrell declared that be
was Democrat, and that corporations
and mouopolies had been created and
fostered by the Republican party. He
declared railroads to be q public necessi-
ty, but held that, on account Of their
mOnopolistio tendencies, the government
should exercise a supervision over them
through commission.
little three-year-old daughter OF
Mr.. J. o. Sirson, living seven miles east
of this city, met with a painful accident
yesterday afternoon. She and her little
fve-year-old brother were playing Ia the
yard, at a style block, when the little
boy picked up an ak and struck blow
that cut one of her thumbs and three
fingers. The mother, in her excitement,
put ashes on the cuts to stop the flow OF
blood, which added greatly to the pain.
A physician was called in, who found it
necessary to amputate all the injured
members.
