SENSATION OF HANGING

PULASKI, VA, Feb. S. Special.-Thc
three negroes who were suspected Of
being implicated In an attempt at train
vreckirg, and who came 30 near paying
the death penalty without the verdict
OF jury OF their peers or the Judgment

been released from jail because Of fail-
ure OF proof TO connect them with II.
Dcinan, who first told on them. was
brought from Roanoke and into their
immediate presence when his statements
became so confused and contradictory
that no reliance could be placed on
them.
After their release your correspondent
undertook 10 get from them some ac-
count OF their hanging experience but
owing to general stupidity, or TO the fact
OF not having recovered sufficiently from
the excitement incident u the novel
occasion, the interview was .unsatistac-
tory. They all were evidently fully con-
WINGED that they were 10 die, ana spent

to make them desist.

They agree, too, that death by hanging
can not be very painful. There was
choking sensation followed quick py
state OF utter Inconsistencies, ana that
Is about all Of It. They do not give any
account of past life passing before them
in quick review, nor do they speak IN
any cIearness of future prospects just
before becoming unconscious.
The wonder Is that Lewis Austin who

Wednesday Mr. Hunton, of Fauquier.
stated that the only objection which he
had heard urged 10 the bill which seemed
10 him 10 have any merit, was that uhder

He said he did not think the road should
