A THIRD PARTY FAVORED.
Unequivocal Action Taken by the St Loui
ConventiOn.

Unequivocal Action Taken by the St Louis
| Convention.
"f tt ID crime to be . democrat, then you
can take me out and hang me now" Thus
with quivering frame, distsnded eyes, uplifted
arm and clenched fist Congressman Chas. r.
Moses OF the fourth Georgia district hurled de-
6ancs last evening At the delegates to the in
dustrial conference in st. Louis A perfect
| cyclone of groans and hisses, starting on the
floor and following its track up to the top gal
lery Of Exposition Hal, followed in the wake
of tho challenge.
"hang me now" repeated Moses In Q voice
that penetrated the din. and again there was
an avalanche OF unnatural sounds, in the midst
OF which, with apparently every nerve and
fiber shaking with passion and excitement,
the Georgia Congressman sank back into his
seat.
In this exciting episode was made manifest
the nnai discrimination Of the delegates to the
convention to declare in favor of third party
and an independent party ticket.
Moses reached st. Louis Monday at the head
OF Tour delegates from the Farmers Alliance Of
his state, who had been designated 10 act bv
the state executive committee of the party.

third partyite.
The committee on credentials gave q night

In the course OF the debate W. Z. Branch of
Georgia charged that while Moses was for

harmony that would not deliver over tine
farmers, bound hand and foot, to the demo-
cratic party. 1t was this attack that led to the
outbreak.
Later in the day Congressman Livingston.
who had been charged with being in sympathy
with Moses, rekindled the flame. He said it

FOR FREDA WARDS DEATH.
The Part Taken by Lille johnson Discusse<
In Court

The Part Taken by Lille johnson Discussed
In Court
The criminal court room in Memphis. al.
though enlarged to three times its forme,
capacity, was crowded to suffocation yesterday
morning and hundreds were turned away a,
the door. At o'clock Alice Mitchell, accom-.
panied by her father and brothers, and Lille
johnson, leaning upon the arm Of her father,
entered the court room from the left-hand
entrance. Judge Dulce, upon the opening of the
court, read q short opinion everything the
motion of the counsel Of Alice Mitchell to be
permitted to inspect the letters in the hands OF
the attorney general
Miss Mitchell was returned to Jail accom-
panied by her relatives. The motion Of Lille
johnson for bail was then taken up.
Miss 10 Ward, sister of the deceased, was
first put upon the stand. After a rehearsal of
the facts connected with the killing of Freda
Ward upon the custom house stoop the
counsel of Miss Johnson again asked the court
to allow them to have the benefit of the letters
held by the attorney general. as the burden was
upon the defendant on motion for bail to in
troduce all the states proofs.
This being objected to by the attorney gen.
eral the court-overruled defendants motion,
holding the letters could not be inspected.
Upon cross-examination a letter was read
from Miss johnson to Miss Ward asking why
she had ceased to speak to her; that she wanted
to know, so she might inform her friends when
asked why they were unfriendly.
On re-cross-examinaton witness admitted
that her sister Freda and Alice Mitchell were
engaged to marry and had made ARRANGEMENTS
to elope and go to St. Louis and get married
last summer; that her married sister, finding
out what was going on, refused Freda any fur
ther communication with Miss Mitchell and
prohibited her from associating with her.
Ihey also prohibited Freda and witness from

Dynamite Stored by French Anarchists
Some excitement was caused few days

subsequent storage and disposition. It was

GENERAL BUFFERS PLEA.

Argunents In Behalf of fie,den and
schwab Before the Supreme Court.
WASHINGTON, Jan. s7.-Again Tues
day the United States supreme court
room was crowded to its utmost ca
pacisy BY those eager to hear the argu-
ments in the anarchists cases" and
more particularly TO hear the argu-
ment of Den. benjamin +. Butler.
Tho general dwelt upon the effect
treaties had upon the rights Of the men
TO have the whole case reviewed
by the United States supreme
court. Gen. Butler admitted that
his clients, because they were for
eign subjects, had no greater rights
than Americans except that that fact
under the treaties gave them a right
to have the case passed upon by the
United States courts, and in this way
there was created federal jurisdiction
over ell the doings OF the state
courts, including the right to go
behind the records Of the state supreme
court which showed that the me N
were present when its judgment was
pronounced, when. in fact. they were
not bodily present He argued that in
this way the question was presented
for review here whether or not the alb
senee OF the men constitutes violation
OF that process OF law guaranteed by
the constitution.
