AIosELEY's ASSASSINATION.
Relieved That the Accused Negroes
Were Hired TO XIII Him.

Columbia, S. c., oct. 14-Later advices
from Greenwood are to the effect that
two white men are concerned in the as
sassination of Constable Moseley. There
is little doubt but that the killing was
premeditated, and was done according to
set purpose. by three or four negroes
who were hired for the purpose. No
names are given, but ConSSa BILE Moseley
is said to have told friends several
weeks ago that he believed that there
was a conspiracy on the part of two
white men, who were running blind tigers
near Greenwood, to kill him at the first
opportunity. He has been one of the
most active constables, but never made
himself more obnoxious than he could
possibly help. He was well connected
in Abbeville county, and various rela-
tives had tried to induce him to give up
his dangerous calling.
1t looked for a time as If there would
be a lynching bee over the four negroes
who werc arrested, accused of the MUIR
der, and the governor ordered the local
military company to hold itself in readi-
ness to aid the town authorities If help
was needed to guard the prisoners.
The town is thoroughly excited and
ever effort made to hunt down all con-
cerned in the killing.

ST. LOUIS OPEN SUNDAY.
Police Commissioners to Follow
ROoseveIfs Example.


st. Louis, Oct. H-Police Commission
er Lee has sent a letter to the different
religious denominations in st. Louis
which has created excitement and crit
icism. He asks II they will uphold him
in a heroic effort to enforce the Sunday
law in st. Louis on the lines pursued by
Commissioner Roosevelt in New York
The Sunday law has been a dead letter
in st. Louis since 1857. Not long ago the
chief of police testified before a legisla-
tive committee that he does not make
the slightest effort to prevent the sale of
liquor on Sunday. Il request the saloon
keepers to keep their front doors locked
wherever ingress and egreeS is possible
In his letter to the preachers Commits
identify himself with the law loving ele-
ment and to enforce "a decent and Or
derby observance of the first day of the
week"
He continues: II believe it should be
enforced fully without evasion as to side
door, back door, or front door, l am
not a prohibitionist or crank, but / have
studied the subject carefully in a prac-
teal way, and believe that all churches
and religious organizations will reap ad-
vantages from such enforcement of the
law, and / write to know what moral
supportaI can rely upon in the effort
may fail, but if / undertake the task
will not fail for lack Of courage or per-
sistency."
Nearly all the ministers have promised
the commissioner their jealous support,
and a hard and bitter fight is looked for.
