A Startling Disclosure

Chicago. June 20.-M. #. Ward, an ex-
police officer, was arrested this morning
ON charges of conspiracy to defraud the
city in the Patrik Liddy case Liddy
was detected yesterday evening attempt
ing to draw another mans pay and was
falsely identified, it is said by Ward.
Ward identified Liddy as man on
Contractor Weirs payroll with full
knowledge, it is said that he was Liddy
and not the man he represented him
self to be. Accountant Harper who is
given the credit for the detection of
Liddy, says that Ward has identified
more than fifty men, and that probably
his arrest may develop into the dis
closure of an organized gang to defeat
the ends of the affidavit scheme as a
protective measure against fraud. Liddy
this morning confessed the names of the
men who had made ii possible for him
to attempt to get another persons money.
The authorities refuse to disclose the
names of the men. They are now being
searched for by the detectives.

INTO A BRIDGE
Which Had Sagged Plunged a Passenger
Train-Remarkabe Escape of
Passengers and Crew.

Houston, Tex, June 20-The Missouri,
Kansas and Texas passenger train
which left here at $3.50 last night ran into
a lloating bridge across a ravine about
seven miles north Of this city. The train
reached the bridge at 1912 o'clock. When
within 20 feet Engineer Henry Garrett
saw "swag' in the bridge and immedi-
ately applied the brakes, but not in time
to stop the train, and as the
locomotive went upon the float
ing bridge he felt it was 60
ing down. He stuck to his post and
was moi injured The fireman was show
cling coal, and after crossing the bridge
when the tender fell to the left he fell to
the right down an embarKment, but was
only slightly bruised.
The engine and baggage car were
showed across the ravine by the momen-
tun of the train and We're piled in a
wreck on the opposite bank. The smoker
was jammed across the track with both
ends torn out. The second class coach
spanned the ravine, taking the place of
the bridge. Two chair cars and the
sleeper kept the track this side of the
washout. There were passengers in both
the smoker and second class coach. and
now they escaped death and more serious
injuries is a mystery
Conductor w. j. johnson walked back
to the city and Immediately took out
physicians and a relief corps. No lives
were lost, but Baggage Agent #. D. Rem
IroW, Engineer Garrett. Fireman j. w.
Siocum, section Foreman j. Graham and
TWO colored passengers were slightly in
1ured and brought to the hospital here.
The track will be cleared tonight and

Sensational Rather.

Philadelphia, June 20-Sensational r,-
mors have come to light that there will
be change in the defense in the trial
of James b. Gentry for the murder Of
the actress. Madge Yorl1e. 1t is hinted
that the defense will now endeavor to
show that Gentry killed the girl because
he believed that her love for Miss Ida
Clarke, her actress friend and compan-
ion, was of a morbid and unnatural
character, similar to that said to have
existed in the Freda Ward and Alice
Mitchell case. These rumors have
reached the ears of Miss Clark, who is
now in this city, and she today sent
note to an afternoon paper declaring
that she has been informed that her
character and that of her dead friend
is to be besmeared by Gentry's lawyers.
She denounces the rumors as outrageous
slander and asserts that her relations
with Madge York were those of pure
and disintereSted affection.

WILL PURVIS RESENTENCED
And the Date of His Execution Set for
JuIy 81.
EFFORTS OF HIS ATTORNEYS FUTILE.
The FARGO of Year Ago, When the
Sheriff Failed to Do His Duty,
Reviewed-An Hope of
Aid Gone.

Jackson Miss, June 20.-Will Pur-
Wis, the Marion county White Capper,
has been resentenced to hang and that
ends an interesting chapter of .Missis-
sippi history. Two years ago the life of
the average negro farm laborer in south
Mississippi was made miserable, if not
uncertain, by outrages of murderous
White Cap organizations in the county
pike. These midnight riders vented
their spite on Jews, who owned farms,
by whipping and driving off the negroes
and in many instances burning their
cabins and corn cribs.
In Lincoln county they became SO bold
that when a score of their associates
were Jailed they rode into Brookhaven
200 strong and demanded their release
while Judge Chrisman was holding
court, and the national guard was called
out to disperse them. The men under
arrest were sent to the state prison.
In Marion county numerous crimes
had been charged to the White Caps, and
young man who had become offended
at one of their acts of villainy severed
his connection with the band and turned
states evidence. On his way home from
the court house he was shot and killed
from ambush. Circumstantial evidence
WAS very SlTOHS lHdl VIII 1uTNlS was
the murderer. He was tried and con-
victed and sentenced to hang. The day
for the execution came and thousands
assembled at Purvis to witness the sight,
but the sheriff was either not qualified
for the emergency or he had been bribed
to let Purvis live. The rope was tied so
that when the drop fell the moose slipped
and Purvis went to the ground like
chunk of lead instead of dangling in
mid air. The sheriff made as if he would
try it again, but the crowd surged
around him and prevented it, so that tho
condemned man was taken back to jail
where he has since remained
He still protests his innocence, and his
lawyer got the case before the supreme
court again and argued that Purvis had
been hung once and the law indicated
The court held otherwise and ordered
him resentenced, which was done veg
terday by Judge Terrell, July 81 being
fixed as the date.
Meanwhile White Gaping is one of
the lost arts in Mississippi. The courts
have been so prompt in bringing Of
tenders to justice that what was two
years ago a frightful menace to the
peace and dignity of the state is now
extinct or will be when Purvis shall
have paid the penalty

New York, June 20.-The syndicate
that has underwritten the Georgia Cen
tral reorganization plan includes the
strongest and most influential banking
houses and capitalists in the state. It's
underwriting contract calls for possible
payments aggregating close to S15,000,-
900, and confidence in the success of the
plan is so strong that the offers to un-
derwIite it were largely in excess of the
amount required. The success of the
plan is now practically assured.
