TYLER, Tex, Oct. S1.-The negro
Rho so brutally murdered Mrs. Bel
was captured Tuesday morning about 4
o'clock three miles from Kilgore. Soon
after the officers had him handcuffed a
mob Of some 200 men, heavily armed,
arrived on the scene and demanded the
immediate surrender Of the prisoner,
which was reluctantly given. The mob
started for the scene Of the murder,
where they arrived III the afternoon.
He begged for mercy and it was
melted out to him just as he was merci-
full to the woman whose soul he had
sent to her maker. It was determined
70 burn him at once, and as fast as the
wood thrown around him was con-
sumed it was quickly Teplenished. From
the time the match was applied until he
was incinerated was exactly 80 minutes
The International and Great Northern
train was crowded with people from
towns north. Hundreds of negroes Wit
messed the execution and representative
negroes expressed their Endorsement Of
the punishment. The officers were
pOWerless and the sheriff wired the gov
erRor, but his messages wers too late.
All business houses closed and the big
Cotton Belt shops were deserted.

Preparing on the Quiet.
LErILE Rock, Oct. 29.-MatteTs pugi-
listic took a sensational turn Monday
when Attorney General Kingsworthy
fled information in the second division
Of the Pulaski county circuit court ask
ing for a warrant for the arrest OF
Robert Fitzzimmons and Marlin Julian.
1t developed that while arrangements
have been proceeding quietly at Hot
Springs for a fight to a finish between
Corbett and Fitzsimm0ns to take place
despite the supreme courts decision,
Governor Clarke has not been idle, but
has himself been doing a little prepaF-
ing ION the quiet" It develops that
the governor has had detective or con-
fidential agent at Hot Springs all the
time and has been kept thoroughly
posted on every move made by the pro-
motors Of the fight.
The detective advised the governor
that arrangements had been completed
to bring the fight off and as result Of
this information Attorney General
Trustworthy, acting under instructions
from Governor Clarke, applied to Judge
Martin for the warrants for the arrest
Of Fitzsimmons and Julian, which were
issued and placed in the hands Of
Sheriff Booker. Deputy Sheriff Heard
was given charge Of the matter and at
once started for Texarkana, where
Fitzsimmons and Julian are expected to
enter the state. Instead Of going to
Hot Springs, the deputy viii bring

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-CCmmissiOnel
William L. L0chren Of the pension
Office in his annual report makes several
pointed suggestions. Under the head
patriotism and Pensions" he says
"Those men who enlisted early and
fought the battles Of the war were not
moved by mercenary considerations and
unless actually disabled did not show
the haste in applying for pensions mani
tested by those who enlisted nearer the
close Of the war for large bOunties. and
did little actual service, and who are
now the nOisest in clamOring for more
pensions. As compared with this latter
class, the real soldiers Of the war have
been modest in prefeFring claims foi
pensions.
The commissioner says that many dis.
reputable and incompetent men are
engaged as pension attorneys and sug.
gests that none but reputable men be
allowed to practice in pension cases.
Dishonest attorneys have given much
trouble by systematic criminal and
fraudulent practices. Pension pay
ments, the commissioner says, bring
large amounts into communities and
the fear that the conviction of these at
torneys would lessen the influx Of
money has shaped itself in popular
rancor against the special examiners,
whose investigations have secured the
conviction of criminals. The special ex.
aminatiOns division will not require as
much money as in the past for the rea-
son that vigorous prosecution of frauds
and crimes has discouraged and measur.
ably stopped crimes.
Difficult to Obtain Proofs.
The death of many witnesses and the
age Of claimants has made it quite diff
cult i'll many cases lately to obtain proof
sufficient for the granting Of pensions.
The commissioner recommends that
some provision be made for the main
tenance Of deserving clerks in his bureau
who have been long in the service and
have become practically disabled.
The report shows that the number Of
pensioners June 30, 1894, was 500, 544;
new pensioners added during the year,
39,1S5; dropped pensioners restored,
1905; deaths during the year, 29,816;
dropped for causes, IA, $40, making net
increase Of pensioners during the year
of $50. Pension claims allowed during
the year, 80, 1856; denied, 1O8, S55, cases
pending, k52,21O. The appropriation
for the year was $3.50, OOO, 900 and there
was paid during the year, $198, 8O7, 1897.
The estimate for pensions for 1897 are
s140,0 900 for pension payments; $780,
600 for surgeons fees, and $4,000 for
clerk hire at pension agencies and about
100000 for other expenses. The COM
missioner commends the vigor of the
department Of Justice and of pension ex-
amineTs in prosecuting dishonest at
t0rneys and others who were engaged
in pension frauds. There were 294 per-
sons convicted during the year for
frauds.
