KILLED rHREE PERSONS.
Deadly Work of Tom Flanagan-Two
Victims Over Seventy Years of Age.


Victims Over Seventy Years of Age.
Atlanta, Ca, Dec. 31.-Tom Flana-
gan, a carpenter, killed three persons
tonight near Decatur in three seconds.
Flanagan boarded with G. w. Allen
and wife, who We're both over seventy
in all. Tonight the Aliens and four of
their boarders sat down to supper.
Flanagan was in an adjoining room.
He had been drinking. He was called
two or three times and finally he ap-
peared at the door and without word
began firing pistol at the people seat
ed at the table. His first shot struck
old Mrs. Allen and she fell over from
the wound. The next shot hit the
aged husband and he dropped to the
floor. The boarders were now spring.
ing from their seats to escape. Just
as Miss Ruth Slack rose a bullet struck
her in the head and she fell deal The
others ran out, followed by the remain
ing bullets in Flanagan's pistol.
The old man and his wife died in
few minutes. A posse soon rushed into
the house and took Flanagan pris-
oner He was too drunk to realize
what he had done
The marshal of Decatur brought
Flanagan into the city, as there was
talk of hanging him before morning.
The marshal placed him in the county
Jail here.
Flanagan when he began to sober up
sent for Judge Hillyer. The attorney
had an interview with him. Judge
Hillyer refused to make any statement

BOB COOK ON r4nn,s POSITION.
Says She Has Made No Unfair Demand
on Harvard.


New York, Dec. 31.--The rumor that
Yale had made a "preposterous de-
mand" that Harvard-Yale varsity boat
race be held at New London the day
following the Harvard Cornell race at
Poughkeepsie, was denied to-day by
Bob Cook. He also denied other ru-
mors rejecting on Yale's sporting rep
utation.
This story about Yale trying to die
tate to Harvard is absurd" said Mr..
Cook yale men are not unreason-
able, and such an attitude is contrary
to anything Yale has ever done.
"Dr Brook of Harvard has had one
conference with Walter Camp, acting
for Yale, and they were to have had a
second meeting, but their private bus
mess prevented it. In lieu of the per-
sonal meeting. however, Harvard sub
mitted a list of conditions for a race
and Yale agreed to every one except
that which would require Yale to vio-
late rule of the faculty in that the
crew would be obliged to enter the
contest during term time or so near
to the close of examinations that it
would be impossible to put a crew into
fit condition.
THAT is the only point upon which
hinges any objection, and Yale has an
swered Harvard that she will row at
any date and at any place convenient
to Harvard after the Cornell race"
Asked where he thought the race
would be held, he named Poughkeepsie.

DEBS In HIS TRUE C0L0RS
HE PROCL1IlIS HIMSELF IN OUT
4ND OUT SOCIALIST

Voted for Bryan Because Silver Furnished
a Rallying Cry Against tTrusts-Unorgan-
lied Wage Farmers Gave the Victory to
McKinley-The Ballot Has Been Beaten
to Earth by Doodle.
Terre Haute, Ind, Dec. 91.-Eugene
V. Debs has left the peoples party and
become an out and out socialist. In a
letter to be printed tomorrow in the
Railway Times he states that he sup
ported Bryan and free silver, not be-
cause he regarded the free coinage of
silver as a panacea for national ills,
but because it furnished a rallying cry
and common ground against the trusts,
syndicates and corporations, and, once
united, they could press forward
against industrial slavery.
He says that eighty per cent. of or
ganized wage-earners voted for Bryan
and the result of the election was due
to the fact that unorganized workers
overwhelmingly outnumbered those
who were organized. The ballot, how
ever, much as it has been eulogized
has been beaten to earth by Doodle, and
cannot be relied upon to execute the
will of the people While they are in in
dustrial bondage. ...... ...
The leaders of the socialist army, he
says, have thrown open the door of
hope to the toling masses. Speaking
for himself, he says he is socialist be-
cause he has become convinced that
the competitive system is utterly can
nibalistic. The issue is socialism Ver-
sus capitalism He confesses to no
hope for the toling masses, except by
the pathway mapped out by the social

BODY RIDDLED NTH BULLETS.
A Negro With Bad Reputation Murdered
in North Carolina.

Raleigh, N. c., Dec. 31.--News reach
ed here to-day of a lynching a mile
from Gibson's Station Richmond coun-
ty, Christmas night The man lynched
was Jim Green, (colored), a new conner
in the neighborhood. Nothing was
known of him except that he was of
bad reputation and has served time in
the penitentiary. Late Christmas
night a number of white men, on horse
back, surrounded Green's house and
made him go with them a half mile
down the road, when they strung him
up and riddled him with bullets. The
Iynchers were umasked and were
strangers. 1t is supposed they came
from South Carolina and lynched Green
for some crime committed in that
state.

DEMAND WEYLER,s RETURN.
Leading Madrid Papers Condemn Him as
incompetent.

Madrid, Dec 31.-The Impartial and
the Heraldo to-day publish articles
condemning the military administra-
ton in Cuba and pointing out that de-
spite his oft-repeated promises Cap
tain General Weyler has practically ac-
complished very little in the direction
of suppressing the rebellion. Both pa
pers demand that General Weyler be
recalled and that General Azcarraga,
minister Of war, be appointed in his
place.
The articles caused a great sensation
in the city, and the government, fear
ing trouble would follow, ordered that
both issues of the paper be seized.
The Gazette, official, will tomorrow
publish a number of DEGREES regarding
the administration and other reforms
to be put into effect in Porto Rico.
A preamble written by Prime Minis
ter Canovas del Castillo, dealing with
the colonial policy of Spain, will ac-
company the DEGREES.

heV. y. IN. MUM OF NoCkN Hill Atleged 10
Have Been Apocryphal in His Teachings.
Rocky Hill, Conn, Dec. 3t.-A sensa-
tion has been caused here over the
charges of heresy that have been pre-
ferred against the Rev. Mr. G. H.
Mum, the pastor of the Congregation
al church in this place, by several
members of the congregation through
the members of the church committee
Mr.. Mum was on trial this afternoon,
conference of the Congregational
ministers having been called for the
special purpose. There were among
the clergymen present Rev. DR.. Parker
of the South Congregational church of
Hartford Rev. Asher Anderson of Mer-
iden and F. B. Rouse Of Plantsville,
who acted as scribe at the trial.
There has been trouble in the church
for several months back because Mr.
Mum desired to preach a doctrine that
many of the members of the congrega-
tion claim is against the belief of the
Congregationalists. The hearing this
afternoon was held in executive ses-
sion. What the evidence was that was
given before the conference was not
made known, but the pastor was ad-
vised to resign which he will do in a
few days. The church committee has
paid Mr. Mum his salary, and a new
pastor will be called to succeed him.

LIBERTY or THE PRESS.
Canadian Papers Aroused at the Action of
the Catholic Clergy.

the Catholic Clergy.
Toronto, Dec. 31.-Referring to the re-
port from Montreal that the bishops
will shortly issue mandate denounc-
ing the Manitoba school settlement and
threatening dire disaster to any Cath
olic member of parliament who does
not protest against it, the Globe, liber-
al, says:
THE authors of the mandaments
may as we'll understand that much
more serious consequences are involved
1t is one thing to destroy French
Canadian journal by terrorizing its
readers, and quite another thing to
challenge the liberal party of Canada
to a conflict in which the issue will be
the preservation of the freedom of the
press, the freedom of election and the
supremacy of the state of affairs.
I'm that conflict the bishops will have
to reckon with not only Quebec, but
with Ontario and the west. Nor need
they cherish the delusion that the liber-
will be a fight in which the French
Canadian will regard the liberals of
Ontario not as his enemies, but as his
allies
The Mail conservative, referring to
the bishops mandament suppressing
l. Electeur, says: "An appeal should
be made to the civil tribunals. 1t is a
matter of public interest that the sub
ject should be dealt with. To neglect
or refuse to take it up is to agree to the
exercising of the banning power"
The World, conservative, says: There
is no reason why the papers which have
ben prosecuted by the bishops should
not appeal to the courts for protection.
Further, it is the duty of those who
claim that intimidation was used by
the bishops in the recent election to use
their best endeavors to have the con-
tested seats reopened where the bish-
ops have been guilty of such practices.
1t is also the duty of parliament at
the forthcoming session to see that
such legislation is passed as will here
after effectively prevent the bishops
from intin1idating newspapers. electors
or representatives of the people"

ON TRI1L FOR BRIBERY.
Il. A. Van Valkenburg Said to Have Given
$1,25O for n Vote for Wanamaker


Pottsville, Pa, Dec. BE A Van
Valkenburg, who was arrested at Har-
risburg last evening on charge of at
tempting to bribe Representative Weiss
of Northampton county to vote for
John Wanamaker for United States
senator, was given hearing before
Squire kuebler here to-day.
j. N. Tillard a detective in the en-
ploy of the Interstate Detective agen-
cy of Scranton testified that he was
sent to the Wanamaker people early
in the summer to hire out to them and
then disclosed all information he could
get to his superiors. He described in
terviews between himself and Van VAL
kenburg wherein, he said, it was agreed
that he was to help Van Valkenburg
secure votes against Quays candidate
fer senator. He said that Van Valken-
burg had given money to brlbe repre-
sentatives in various part of the state,
notably in Luzerne. He showed pho
tographic receipt from DR., Mackey Of
Luzerne for 1850 and pledging himself
to vote for Wanamaker.
The defendants counsel later waived
a hearing and entered bail in S1500.
After the bail was entered the prose-
cuton, which had opposed the waving
of the hearing, resumed the eXamina-
tion of Tillard, and he narrated the
story of the alleged conspiracy The
defendant and his counsel had left the
magistrates office. Tillard swore that
Van Valkenburg had paid in Philadel-
phia five one hundred dollar notes.
The money had never been paid over
to Weiss.
During the trial of this case another
warrant was served on Van Valken-
burg in which he is charged with con-
spiracy to bribe DR.. N c. Mackey of
LackaWanna county.
