lice circles as a rendezvous for thiev3.

able characters. This morning Mrs. Bone

Der has written letter to the prosecuting
attorney Of Johnston county. wherein the
recent cattle trouble occurred. The governor
states that the men who surrendered to the

reasonable and sufficient time to prepare
and commence in the district court OF his
county criminal proceedings against any Of

deem justified and warranted by the evi-
dence which the investigation may dis
close to him. He urges the
district attorney TO make such
Investigations as he may deem proper with
all due diligence and institute in the district
q court of appropriate criminal prosecu-
tioas, so that those against whom there are
no criminal accusations may be released and
the others prosecuted for their crimes or for
violations OF the law committed by them.
In conclusion he says the prisoners will be
delivered TO the civil authorities whenever
the status OF the prosecutions in the judg-
ment Of the court require it, and order ia so

HANGEDAFTERAM MURDER
THE KILLING OF A PLANTER
QUICKLY AVENGED.

The Fatal Shot Fired Without the
Slightest Provocation or Justlfcs-
tion-The Murderer Quickly Taken
Into Custody by the Lyuchers-He
Dies With Curses on His Lips.
New ORLEANS, April 26.-The Tines
Democrats Vicksburg Miss special says:
"Details have just been received here OF a
murder and lynching at a plantation
store In Pointe COupee parish, Louisiana,
owned by a wealthy planter named Cotton.
The latter was in his store alone when a
tramp entered and asked for a pistol aud
cartridges. Being told that there was none
in stock he said that he would buy the car
tridges in the proprietor's pistol. to which
Cotton replied that he never went armed.
The tramp then asked for dice, and
being handed some threw them and
claimed S25 from Cotton. This being
refused him he drew his pistol and with
many threats ordered Cotton to give him
Sl00- The plantation manager and several
negroes came in at this juncture, but being
unarmed could do nothing and the manager
left the store to get assistance. The negroes
fled end as they did so the robber emptled
his pistol, mortally wounding Cotton, who
lived only few minutes. The tramp then
robbed the till OF 500 and was about to
leave when the manager returned with
help and overpowered him. Cotton had
expired in tho meantime. Swift vengeance
was meted out to the murderer. The as
sembled crowd, white and blacks, escorted
him to the nearest tree and strung him up.
He died with curses on his lips and declar-
ing that his brothers, living In Franklin,
Miss. would avenge his death. Some of
the lynchers pulled his foot and cut short
his malediotions by breaking his neck"

THE PLEA FOR cHAUMARTIN.

NJ. Robert clevsrly defended Chaumartin,
presenting him TO the jury as a harmless
political theorist, who was not q man of
action like Ravachol. He said that the jury
would prove the real strength Of the class to
which they belonged by generous verdict.
Chaumartin's wife, who was present in
court during trial, created quite a
scene during the proceedings by
angrily protesting against M.
Robert for falling to proclaim her hus.
bands innocence OF the charges which had
been made against her.
NJ. Fourcsde spoke In defense of Beala and
endeavored to convince the jury that the
prisoner was guiltless of the crimes with
which he was charged.
The advocate Cremieux pleaded for
Rosalie Soubere. He said she was the vic
tim OF her accomplices and mott free agent,
and that she should therefore be aQuitted.
Ravachol was then permitted to address
the court. He declared himself full OF con-
tidence that his actions would bear fruit,
adding: May my unintentional victims
understand and pardon my acts"
The judge summed up briefly.
Havachol has strong, clear voice, OF q
hard though not grating quality, and has a
good command of language. The jury ap-
peared greatly wearied, and it was evident
when they retired that they would reach a
decision quickly.
Ravachol and Simon were found guilty
and were sentenced to penal servitude for
life. The other prisoners were acquitted.
A CARTRIDGE IN A SEWER.
A dynamite cartridge was discovered in a
sewer at st. Ettiene to-day. 1t was re-
ported late this afternoon that the house of
NJ. Dresch, the police commissary who ar-
rested Ravachol, had been blown up by
anarchists. The report added to the pan
icky feeling that is now general but it was
without foundation.
LoUBET VISITS THE INJURED.
Premier Loubet to-day visited the per-
sons injured by last nights explosion and
assured them Of the sollcitude of the gov
ernment for their welfare. Traffic near
Very's restaurant is still greatly inter-
rupted.
Two men, who shouted "Vive anarchie, ~
were arrested near the palace of justice this
afternoon.
The Temps, expecting that the enemies of
the republic will use the anarchist attempts
as weapons against the government, calls
upon all republicans to rally around the
ministry. La France says: 1.-THE people
of Paris demand that martial law be pro-
claimed, that every suspected person be ar
rested and the centers Of agitation be uu-
remittingly watched by the police" La
France adds that 100 English visitors left
Paris to-day on account of the anarchist
agitation.
