GENERAL GORDON INQUIRIES.
In reply to Senator Gordon's query,
why the friends of silver halted between
unconditional and conditional repeal

we united the Democratic party, or at

Washington, Sept. Senator Vance
made a great speech to-day. Abiding to
Cen. Gordon, he said this was the first
time that battle-scarred veteran had ever
turned his back on a cause he espoused.
Gen. Gordon replied that he was rs much
friend of silver as ever, but saw no rea-
son why the purposes of the silver men
might not be accomplished after repeal as
well as before.
Ex-Gov j. Proctor Knott is here,

ter 10 Hawaii. He asserted that this po-
sition was offered him before, but
he had declined, as he could not
give up his practice for a
temporary position. The Presidents
offer now will be coupled with another,
that after the Hawaiian business is set
tied he will be sent abroad.

WOULD HAVE BLOWN UP THE JAN.
THREE HANGED AT LAURnNs.

Laurens, S. c., Sept. John Fergu-
son, Wade Cannon and George Bowers,
all colored, were hanged at one o'clock to-
day in the ont building of the county Jail
yard. Ferguson was convicted of wife
murder at the last court, and Cannon and
Bowers of Arson.
Ferguson was neatly dressed and walked
with a springy step TO the scaffold. He
acknowledged his guilt and said he was
prepared to die. Cannon and Bowers pro
tested their innocence to the last, stating
that their former confession was made
through fear. A colored minister held
deYOtions at the gallows. Precisely at
l O'Clock they fell, and after the men had
been hanging for twenty minutes DR.
Aiken pronounced them dead from stra Il
gulation.
HISTORY OF FERaUsoN's CRIME.
Ferguson was 20 years of age. He and
his vic lived unhappily and at
times separated. On Sunday, March
/, last, he came into Laurens
from the country and called upon
his wife. After a few idle words with
her he walked up behind her back, and
catching her be the hair, jerked her head
back and severed her neck with razor.
Efforts have been made to show that
Ferguson was an epileptic, and that he
killed his wife from jealousy while in u
fit Of insanity. This was alleged in PEI
tition to the governor. 1t was not con-
Cured in by either judge or solicitor.
To a reporter he stated that he did not
mind dying, that he had nothing to live
for, and that it was immaterial to him
whether he hanged or not
CANNON AND BOWERS CRIME.
Wade Cannon and George Bowers, who
burned the barn of l. d. Harriston last
July, had another companion in the
crime, Charles Green, but he made an ap-
peal and his sentence is suspended.
The men were convicted through their
own confessions. They afterwards
claimed that they were Innocent, and
that they wer6induced TO intake confess
sion under threats which they could not
resist. Neither Judge nor jury expresses
any doubt as to their guilt.
