HANNIBAL, Mo-, April 1.-THE
Prosecuting Attorney of Rails
county, Geo. W. Whitecotton, was
interviewed by a Republic cor
respondent this afternoon in refer
ence to the Mansfield King matter,
and says that he will take steps at
once to have King brought to Rails
county for trial. The papers will
be forwarded to the st. Louis off.
cials in the morning, and if they
express a willingness for Kings
removal to the county in which he
admits that he killed Carter, the
Sheriff of Rails county will be sent
down right away to bring him up.
Mr.. Whitecotton thinks that KING
has told the truth in his confession
and that he undoubtedly killed
Carter. He also thinks that Kings
mind has become somewhat de-
ranged through. the remorse conse-
quent upon the terrible deeds he
has committed. Interest in Rails
and adjoining counties in this mat
ter is unabated, and the Carter
murder and Kings confession are
now the all absorbing topics OF
conversation. A near relative OF
King, who positively refused to
allow his name to be publishd, was
discovered here by Republic
reporter to-day, and says that
Kings name is John instead Of
Mansfield, and that he probably
changed names in order to deceive
the officers whom he supposed were
on his track.
PLAYING A sHREwD GAME.
| The st. Louis Republic says
nothing new has developed at Clay
ton in the case of Mansfield King
the confessed murderer and horse
thief. He repeats the same story
|he has told to everyone who con
verses with him. Some think hin
crazy, while the great majority
think he is playing shrewd gam
to enable him to escape the sewers
punishment which any st. Louil
county jury will mete out to him
The impression seems to prevail
that he is maneuverlng removal t.
Rails county, where, if the body o
Carter cannot be found, there viii
be no danger of a conviction o
murder, and the statue of limita
! ton bars prosecution for tn
crimes of robbery which he ha
confessed. They fail to realize tn
fact that after he is tried in Rail
county for the murder of Carter
and if acquitted, he may be brough
back to Clayton and made t
answer for the stealing of Pipkin'
horse. 81

A QUESTIONABLE DODGE,

regale the public with such very in
teresting stories about one or another
"curicus Incident,n which stories al
ways end in some humbug advertise

knows whether he can spend time in
reading any newspaper statement
whatever. The unlicensed extent to
which such practices are being carried
would seem TO call for law to sup
press the use of the public prints for
purposes of deception, for what bet

time under false pretences than to
take his money? Let everybody es-

-NeW York Sun. dem. Unfortunately
for the Democracy the Hon. John B.
Gordon, of Georgia, who faced the
fanaticism of the Alliance with the
same patriotic firmness that has char
acterized Senator ingalls,, lives in a
country where the sentiment of his
party is too deep and intense to be
transformed into a passing craze of
socialism. Mr.. ingalls,, although a
Republican of the most extreme type,
when the same great test of patriotism
was applied to him, proved himself as
sound Democrat as Gov. Gordon.
The Republication of Kansas, how
ever, is fiimsy compared to the DEM
ocracy of Georgia. 1t contains no
similar sustaining force of political
craftsmanship. Its representative in
the United States Senate may be
turned out to make room for a man
who waves with the peculiar senti-
mental undulation that has swept
over the Kansas prairies. But, if
beaten under such circumstances, the
Hon. John J. Ingalls, will retire from
public Office like a man and patriot
to whom every Democrat and every
American may well give a word of
honor.n
