ALYNCHING IN THOMAS.
1ARKIN NIX RIDDLHD WITH BUL-
LETS IN THE WOODS

The Mayor of Meigs Had Turned Him
over to Four Men For Safe Keeping.
They Took Him Into the Woods to
Give Lynchers the Slip-The Latter
Up to Snuff
THoMAsvILLE, Ca, Nov. The worst
tsars about Larkin Nix, murderer Of George
W.e. have been realized. He was taken
Yesterday morning BY the band that had
captured him to Meigs. in this county, and
turned over to the mayor for safe keeping.
The latter put him in charge Of four men,
whom he told he would hold personally
responsible for the prisoners safety.
After awaiting all day. while there
was ample time and opportunity to
reach the Townsville jail, at O'Clock last
night Sheriff, Ross was notified in this
city that Nix was in custody In Meigs and
asked TO come after him. The sheriff, with
small armed posse, Immediately set out
BY private conveyance, aud at | o'clock
this morning reached Meigs, where he was
informed that the guards, anticipating
trouble, had taken Nix into the woods for
safe keeping.
RIDDLED WITH BULLETS.
He started in search Of them but did not
find the party until o'clock this morning,
when their proximity was made known by
the firing of guns. The sheriff pushed on
and soon came upon the dead body of Nix
riddled with bullets, a mob having done
the work. The lynching occurred across
the line in Mitchell county.
The apparent cause for the
delay seems TO have been because
certain members Of the original party had
been recognized by Thomas Larkiu. The
yncbers were all masked. The guards
state that they were forced to deliver tho
prisoner. Colluson on the part of some of
the guards is openly hintsd at The lynch
ing is condemned by most of the people.

MAETINsvILLE, IND, Nov. 1.-Considsr,
able excitement has been oausei in the ad-
joining county Of Hendricks by the arrest OF
the three sons Of Abraham Peacock, charged
with Decorating the grave OF Abigail
BrazletoH, in the Sugar Grove cemetery
near the Morgan county line. The circum.
stances Surrounding the case are Of q sensa-
tional character.
At the beginning Of the war Miss Brazls-
ton came from Tennessee and made her
home with her brother, Obadiah Morgan.
Early 10 the year 1854 she died. but prior
to that time she had requested her nephew,
John Morgan. then mere lad. to whom she
had given valuable presents, to see that her
grave was we'll kept. III keeping his prom
ise, in the spring Of the same year he planted
a plCe lot of flowers and G Ner way spruce
tree. It grew rapidly. and Ia tae spring Of
1890 was fine specimen, IA inches in dame
ter and 40 feet tell. Some time during the
month of May, 1890, the tree was grdled
with chisel up in the branches, but ID did
not die. This coming to the knowledge Of
Mr.. Morgan he set TO work to ferret out the
guilty party, but failed.
A short time ago Mr. Morgan had occa-
sion to visit the grave Of his old friend, end
was surprised to hnd the beautiful tree lit
orally burned up. with nothing but a small
stump and few limbs remaining. Pri-
vnte detsctives we're put to work. aud in a
few days it was learned that the Peacock
boys had carried straw from q neighboriug
sack, piled it around the tree to hight OF
ten or twelve feet aud applied the torch
Mr.. Morgan put the matter before the
grand Jury, and the result was the indict-
ment Of the Peacocks for desecratiag the
grave OF Abigail Brazleton.
The lowest fine under the Indictment for
a crime of this character is $500, to which
may bs added imprisonment for six months

The Maverick National OF Boston

BosroN, Nov. 1.-The Maverick National
Bank will suspend payment tomorrow
morning. The decision to close its doors
was reached after prOtracted conference
Of the clearing house committee
Of the Boston NasiOnal Bank at
O'CLOCK this morning It is
stated positively that the failure will not
entail auy widespread financial evils. The
official announcement Of the suspension
was made by the clearing house committee
this evening III q call for q meeting
Of the members VI the clearing house
tomorrow morning to take action upon
proposition recommended by the commits
sioners that all the banks composing the
association unite in making advances in
cash to the depositors ia the Maverick bank.
The call states that the object of making
these advances is to relieve the temporary
embarrassment Of depositors, aud that the
bank - closed by the national hank ex-
auiner, acting under the instructions of the
controller OF the currency. The immediate
cause of the banks suspension was the
suicide of Irving Bvans aud the talk which
followed it. The loss to the bank by its
dealings with Evans was not large enough
to seriously inJure 1t, being net more than
500 600, but the talk of che strest made
the banks loss far greater.
The deposits in the bank ten days ago
amounted to more than 10000. 00O
During last week more than
81, 700, 600 was Withdrawn. State
Treasurer Marden withdrew some $780,
600 of the c0nnonwealths funds, which
were on deposit there. Other trust moneys
were also taken out. The situation was
fully realized by Mr. Potter and his asso-
ciates. They met il nanfully with all
the resources at their command, but the
pressure became too great.
