ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, Feb. ia special to the
Republic from Pine Bluff, Ark, says:
John Kelly, the negro who murdered ]. t.
McAdams, a prominent citizen of this city,
on the streets last Tuesday night, was cap
tured at Rison, two miles south,
and brought herel tonight. The news
of the capture spread rapidly, and
when it became known that Kelly would
reach here at MALT past nine O'Clock, crowd
of thousand congregated and it became
apparent summary justice would be speed
lily administered. AS soon as the train
arrived, they took the prisoner from
the officers and marching to the
courthouse procured a rope and
placed one end around the victims neck,
while the other was thrown over the cross
arm of a telegraph pole and Kelly was soon
hanging forty feet In the air, and his body
riddled with bullets. As the body of
Kelly swung from side to side, the air
resounded with cries of Lynch Culbeft
Harris, his accomplice." A rush was
made for the jail in the rear
of the courthouse. Access to the jail was
effected with axes, and Harris was rushed
out to the front, where another rope was
secured, and as the clock on the courthouse
tored the quarter before IL, the body was
jerl1ed into the air. simultaneously there
was the report of a hundred shots, and the
body was a corpse. Both men were hanged |
from the same telegraph pole, and the
bodies are now dangling in the air, few
feet apart.

an OHIO Man.

It seems that a congressman from Ohio,
one N. d. Harter, has had the gall to write
letters broadcast TO people in Texas. nota-
bly, in Mr., Bailey's district, saying that the
advocacy Of free silver coinage by the
Texas members is great mistake and in
the interest only of the silver kings
of the Western states. 1t should be known
in Texas that this Harter, though elected
as a Democrat is as much of goldbug
worshipper as any Republican. He UNDER
took to carry around petition urging the
expediency of delaying all silver legis-
lation but could get no signatures
and mad to abandon it. His great distress
about silver arises from the fact that he is
millionaire national banker who is inter
ested in maintaining the gold standard so
as to increase the strength of his capital
and keep interest rates high, however the
people may suffer. 1t is understood his
circulars were marked "private and conf
dential,r but some of them were sent here
by Texas recipients, and Mr.. Harter is
likely to hear something not very pleasant
from a certain Texas congressman about
his impudent action.

Hill in New York.

ALBANY, n. Y. Feb. 14-Almost a quar-
ter Of the 12S assembly districts of the
state have elected their delegates to the
WashiGgton's birthday Democratic con-
vention in Albany. The delegates have
been selected from counties all over the
state-sixty-nine delegates in ali, from
twenty-three assembly districts. Satur-
days conventions in Otsego, Lewis, Madi-
son and Westchester counties all instructed
for Hill for president. From these
conventions the feeling of the Demo-
cratic party throughout the state may
be ascertained. The delegates in many
cases have been instructed by the conven-
tions that elected them, and they stand
siXty-nine for Hill and three anti-Hill.
Without considering New York or Brook
Ign. Senator ELL will have a majority of
the convention. Mr.. Smith NJ. Weed, who
thought that Governor Hill promised the
senatorship to him, carried Essex county
against Hill. He will also carry Clinton
county, and possibly Franklin or Warren.
Robert A. Maxwell, formerly superin-
tendent of instruction, who was not re-
appointed by Governor HILL will control
the delegates from Eenesee county. d.
Cady Herrick or his deputized proxy will
control the Albany delegates. That leaves
only six counties against Hill He is get
ting the delegates from the other fifty
four. There has been change in the pro-
gramme for delegates at large. Edward
Murphy, chairman of the Democratic
state committee, has announced that he
would rather go as delegate from his
district than at large, and Lieutenant
Governor Sheehan has made q similar
statement Senator Hill wants Mr.. Nc
Laughlin of Brooklyn and Mr.. Croker of
New York to be among the delegates
preferably delegates at large Senator
Hill is at the Delayan house, where he has
several clerks busyin q suite of rooms look
ing after his big correspondence with the
Democrats of other states.

How They view IT

Special to the Gazette
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14-The news of
George Clark's candidacy for the govern
ship of Texas was read here to-day with
keen interest by members of the Texas del
egatlcn. Your reporter talked with ma
jority of them and not one was Of the
opinion that Clark viii prove a formidable
opponent as against Governor Hogg. Said
one: George Clark has no idea of getting
the nomination himself, but thinks he can
control little over third of the votes in
the convention so as to keep Hogg from
being renominated. His prime object is to
down jim Hogg, but he will be badly
fooled individual, for Hogg is going to sue
coed himself without any great difficulty.
Some OF the delegates, however, expressed
the view that Clark had deluded himself
into thinking that he could really win the
nomination through the representations of
the anti-commission men and the radical
element of the Alliance people OF course
Clark's fine Italian hand is manifest like
wise in the senatorial struggle, and not only
as regarding the seat now held by Senator
Chiffon. but that of Senator Coke, too, for
the willy Warwick covets the credit of
bagging both of them for candidates of his
own choosing

coins at par. In England. Portugal and the
states of the scandinavian union there is
no stock of silver coin except subsidiary
coin required for change purposes, the
nominal value. OF which is far in excess of
the bullion value.
The majority then go on to show that
free coinage would put more money into
circulation besides doing what is of prime
importance, viz: raising the status OF silver
the world over. In conclusion the majority
sums up the report made at the
last session by Bartine of Nevada,
who as leader OF the free
coinage Republicans on the committee and
in the house made a comprehensive, ex-
haustive and judicial review of the silver
question in ali its parts. This document OF
Bartine's went into the cry that free coin
age would food the United States with
cheap silver, showing by consldera-
ton of the financial conditions in Europe
and India it was not TO be epprehended-
Quotations from Bartine's report also go
with more elaboration into most OF the
points outlined in the first part of the report
to be submitted tomorrow.

MRS. JEWELS ASSAULTER.
Brute-Posses in Hot Pursuit-He
Will he Lynched if Caught.
Special to the Gazette


TExARKANA, ARK, Feb. 1.-Two mulat-
toes answering the general description of
the negro who assaulted Mrs. Henry Jewell
yesterday were arrested last night, brought
here at midnight and lodged in Jail. One
of these had dried blood on his
coat sleeves and acted in a manner which
led the captors to strongly believe him to
be the guilty party. This morning, how
ever. when the prisoners were taken before
Mrs. Jewell she promptly pronounced both
OF them innocent and they were discharged.
Both darkeys were almost frightened out of
their wits, and pleaded all night with their
captors to not murder them, and when
turned loose lost no time in getting out of
sight.
d Il is now known absolutely that the negro
who perpetrated the outrage is I'd Coy. who
Irade crop last year on Red river, eight
miles north of here, where his wife now
lives. For the past two weeks Coy has
been cutting cord wood about half q mile
from the Jewell farm. Several persons
who know the negro well are out with va
rious posses of men who are still securing
the country for him. One of those posses,
which il is though will most probably sue
coed in the search, is the. one that has gone
TO the vicinity of Goy's wIfe's place.
They viii watch that quarter
in apprshending him viii rush
'hiIz ter11ii here at once. Public indigna-
ton is still running at the highest possible
pitch. and everybody, except the officers,
advises lynchipg. II the wretch is caught
1t is morally certain that no jail anywhere
in this section of the state will be strong
enough 10 hold him. Mrs. Jewell the vic
tim, is still in a most dangerous condition.
but Der recovery is hoped for.

Cross Roads Debate.

Special 70 the Gazette
Cross ROADS, TEX, Feb IA joint dis
cussion was had at this place last night on
the sub-treasufy question between Mr..
Perryman OF the Peoples party and o. w.
Gillespie of Fort Worth on the part of
Democracy,
The details were arranged and the discus
sion was opened by Mr.. Perry1nan in a
speech of two hours, followed by MIR. Gil
lespie, who occupied one hour and ten min
utes and rejoinder of thirty minutes by
Mr.. Perryman.
The entire two hours occupied by Mr.
PerTyman in his opening speech was de-
voted to criticising the political records
of the two old parties, and
was of the usual stereotyped style
claiming that both were corrupt and
run in the interest of ''Wall street, and
cited instances in which the votes of GER
tain members of congress were not in ac-
cord with the platform of principles adopted
by the parties of which they were members.
But he took special care to avoid as far as
he could the ''sub-treasury'' questions. de-
voting but very few minutes to that issue.
Mr.. PerryInan did not condemn the plat
form of the Democratic party, but claimed
their principles were not carried out by the
public officials to whom it was entrusted.
Mr.. Gillespie made a clear, logical argu-
ment and demonstrated with great force
the fallacy and impracticability of the sub
treasury scheme, and showed that the
Democratic party was the party of the peo-
pie and had always championed the cause
of the people in the interest of good govern
ment He said if Democratic representa-
tives had proved recreant to the trust COM
mitted to them and mad lent their aid and
cast their votes for measures which were
not to the best interests of the masses,
then it became a personal matter with
them and their personal act, and
not the act of the Democratic party. And
the remedy is not to form a new party, but
to purge the old, and to that end come TO
the ballot-box and assist in decapitatiug the
unfaithful servants and place in their stead
men who would carry out the principles of
the party He said the Baptist church
had its 'aruicles of faith,'' and when
member violated them they did not organ
iZe new church, but put the erring brother
out. So with other churches; when a min
lister or brother goes astray they do not
undertake to remedy the matter by organ
ling new church, but by purging
the old of it's lawless element. There was
a large crowd present, and during the
whole of Mr.. Gillespie's speech he had their
undivided attention and all seemed in
tensely interested. Mr.. Perryman, in his
rejoinder, made no attempt at answering
Mr.. Gillespie'S argument, except by ridi-
CUE, and asserted that his argument in
favor of the sub-treasury was unanswer-
able. Another assertion was that he
had met Dave Culberson and dis
cussed the sub-treasury with him, and
that Dave said his argument on
the sub-treasury was unauswerable (of
course no one doubts that assertion). Upon
the whole the discussion resulted q victory
to Democracy, and many good citizens who
were IN doubt went away with their faith
well grounded in Democracy

HmLeads In Florida.

JACKSONVILLE. FLA, Feb 1.-THE Sec
ond district Democratic executive commit
tee has just closed their meeting here,
which was held for the purpose of arranging
the time and place for calling the district
convention. 1t adjourned to meet again
next Tuesday, at which time it will confer
with the state committee, and botn conven-
tons will probably be held in this city
during the first week in June. Reports
from all parts of the state show
a rapid decrease in the CIeve-
land sentiment. A year ago the state was
solid for the ex-president's denomination
in 1892 His most ardent admirers now
admit that the Cleveland men in Florida
are in decided minority. OF the seven
members of the district committee present
here today three were for Hill, three for
Cleveland and one for German. The re-
manning two, who are ABSENT are both Hill
men. There is a majority for Hill in the
present composition of the state committee,
and it is confidently predicted that F'lorida's
eight delegates to the national convention,
if not pledged to Hill, will surely be ia
structed against Cleveland.

HURON, S. D., Feb. 14-When inter
viewed relative to the National cordage
company and National Union company's
scheme, Alonzo Waddell, president of the
Alliance association and defunct Fidelity
insurance company, declared he had no
personal connection with it. The new
scheme has no connection with the
Farmers Alliance, nor has the
National Alliance Endorsed it. Should the
st. Louis labor conference have its attention
directed to it, the national convention of
political parties win have it sprung on
them. Waddeu regards the scheme us one
for which the Alliance was originally or
ganized and for which it has always la
bored, viz, the cooperative system and
combining of Alliance purchases and sales,
thereby doing away with middlemen.

never expect through the old parties.
This is an independent party that
advocate measures and principles, not

are fighting Governor Hogg, not for any
neglect of official duty, for he is trying to
enforce the laws as made by Democrats in
Democratic council.
He has very high regard for Hon.
George Clark's ability. but thinks he, while
a very shrewd politician. will not be elected
governor at the next election. The captain
says he favors Hon George Clark for sena-

sanguine of the success of his party.

Readers of THE GAZETTE will remember
the details of the awful crime. the murder
being a,particularly atrocious one, and cold
blooded in the extreme. Mr.. McAdams
was murdered at the corner of his own
yard; his head being crushed on the left
side by a blow or blows from railway
coupling pin, which was found on the blood
saturated sidewalk clothed with the blood
and brains of the murdered man. This
action shows that the feeling was intense
among all classes, and the delay that oc-
CURED since the capture of portion of
the murderers, while tending to lull the
suspicious of the officers, causing relaxa-
ton of vigilance, the sequel shows the
populace was only holding the desire for
vengeance in check until all the negroes
should have been captured. People freely
stated on the streets of Pine Bluff that the
murder should be avenged, and they kept
their word. Mr.. McAdams' message is
brief, but it tells volumes in those few
words From all that can be learned here
of the details of the crime, the actiop.Of the
mob was only an act of retributive justice.
