RUSTLERS | YHCHED A WOMAN.
Mrs. HOiton Meets an Awful Fats IN
Hsya Psha County. Neb.
EVIDENCE OF A TERRIBLE FIGHT.
Her Body Discovered Ia Her Cabin With
s Rope Tied About the Neek-She
Gave Away Secrets.

BUTTE, Neb.. March l9.-Mrs. ". g.
Holton o i va Plha county was found
dead II her hOms last night BY neigh.
boEs. She had been lynched. Her
body was lying on the floor with 8 piece
Of rope, about 10 feet long, and a hatchet
and hammer beside her. The coroner
was summoned and an autopsy showed
that she had died of strangulation, and
had also been assaulted. The woman
was living alone, as her husband had
been sent to an insane asylum. It is
supposed the motive Of the lynching
was to prevent the woman from giving
testimony against the Tustlers, as she
had been summoned as q witness against
gang OF thieves in the county. She
had borne good reputation. It was
evident that she had fought hard fight
for her life and her honor, as the bed
ding and clothing were torn and scat
tered around the room.
No warrants have yet been made, but
q meeting Of the best citizens Of the
neighborhOOd was held yesterday, and
1t was decided prompt measures should
be taken, and it is expected that an.
other and possibly several hangings viii
take place before leng.
Several Under Suspicion.
Several persons are under suspicion,
and these parties viii be taken and COM
PEELED to confess.
The body of Mrs. HoltOn was inferred
ct Oakdale cemetery at DOty, this cOun-
~, yesterday.
The latest report comes that a man
named Hunt is implicated in some way
with the lynchers, and it is thought he
can be forced to a confession. A num-
Der Of the alleged rustlers were recently
arrested and taken to Springview, where
they broke Jail and escaped to the reSer-
walton, where they were afterward re-
captured and convicted.
The country where the lynching oc-
Cured is in the heart of the cattle
rustllng district.
Money Found on the Body.
The cOrOner's jury after viewing the
body delivered a verdict in accordance
with the circumstances, that the de-
ceased came to her death by hanging,
and that the deed was committed by a
person or persons unknown to the jury.
A large sum Of money was found on the
body which had escaped the observation
Of the lynching party. The house was
thoroughly ransacked and several arti-
Giles Of value, including new Colts re-
VOlver, were missing.

asserts that in Los Villas the insurgents
are rapidly gaining bosh strength and
confidence.
Organized hands are beginning to rise
in different sections OF this district, and
especially near Santo Syrite. For two
days uncertain and uutraceable reports
have reached here regarding an Ameri-
can steamship being fired on by a
Spanish gunbOat on the south coast of
Florida. Tuesdays steamer brought
news from Key West, which is said to
be authentic, claiming that the steamer
Irene Of Key West had been fired upon
and dismasted by the Infanta Isabella
near Charlotte harbor, after which the
steamer went ashore where she now lies
above south harbor. 1t is generally be-
ieved that the authorities at Washing

and can under no circumstances be toll
