WHITECAPS ARRESTED
Three of the Order Give the
 Gang Away.
PROMINENT PERSONS INCLUDED.

They Have Whipped Fifty Persons En
 the Last Two Years, Two-Thirds of
 whom Wore Aged and Helpless wo-
 men-some of Their Victims Died From
 She Punishment.
 KNOXVILLE, Nov. 5.-Much excite ment prevails in Sevier county over the arrest of several prominent persons charged with being whitecaps. Ten days ago whitecaps were waylaid while on midnight whipping expedition and several of them killed. Since then it is said that Isaac Brown and his two sons have told the sheriff everything, includ- ing the names of over 100 citizens who belong to the organization. \ Those now under arrest are William Brown, Jesse Brown, T. D. Davis, B. Davis, Horace Davis, 0. l.. Montgom- cry, Lon Carnes, John Norton, Arthur Seaton, John Seaton, William Tram mell, Henry McMillan and William Ware. The three Browns, it is said, will turn state's evidence at the trial. The others under arrest have given bond. They will appear before the SeVier county grand jury in two weeks. AS fast as sufficient evidence accumu- lates the others of the 100, whose names have been secured, will be arrested.
 About two years ago the Sevier county whitecaps first appeared Ten masked men called about midnight at a house in the Second district, where four wo- men lived alone, dragged the women from their beds and whipped them on their naked bodies with hickory switches
 The women were nearly killed. The whitecappers had given them notice , that unless they left that section in 10 days they would be whipped, and the threat was carried into execution. Since this first whipping and up to the pres ent time there have been about 90 peo- pie whipped in Seyier by this masked gang of midnight marauders.
 On one occasion they whipped an aged man and wife, because 1t is alleged that some member of the family had done something they did not like. The three Browns say that this was the only reason. The old man shows signs of the beating.
 Out of 50 who have been whipped by the gang in two years two-thirds were women, many of them aged and help less. Seven or eight deaths have been caused by the brutalihes of the gang, two of these being their own members, 80 that the arrested men will answer to the crime of murder as we'll as assault and battery and whitecapping.
 According to the statement of the three Browns the gang called itself the Graveyard Host" Every member took an ironclad oath, the substance of which was that before they would re- veal anything of the workings of the gang they would suffer their throats to be cut or be burned at the stake. An sother provision of the oath was that if any brother was arrested tho others would release him at all hazards.

VICTOR DE LACOVA.
He Is Under Arrest For Illegally Send
 ing Cartridges to Cuba.

ing Cartridges to Cuba,
 NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-Victory de La cova was arrested Saturday by Dep uty United States Marshal Bostwick on complaint of w. H. T. Hughes, secre- tary of the New York and Cuba Mail Steamship company, who charges De Lacoya with unlawfully sending cart ridges on the steamer Hulri for Ha- vana.
 United States Commissioner Shields admitted him to bail in the sum of $25O0.
 It is thought that the arrest of De La cova may lead to an explanation of the cause of the mysterious burning of the Ward line steamship some time ago. The complaint of Secretary Hughes shows that on Aug. 91, 1893, nine bar rels of tallow were shipped on board the Hulri and a great number of cartridges were concealed in the tallow for use in the Cuban revolution

PraisinG Czar Nicolas.

LONDON, Nov. 5.-In a leader this morning The Daily News says that Czar Nicolas could not begin better. If he follows in his fathers footsteps it will be well for Russia and Europe. It cost America a rnerciless war to get rid of her slavery system. It was. Russia's good fortune to get rid of her serfdom without spilling blood. This is one of the casual advantages by which despot- ism sometimes excuses it's existence to mankind. It will be easy for Russia if she is left to outgrow despotism of any kind.
