DOUBLE RETRIBUTION
SCOTT JACKSON AND ALONZO MAILING WERE HANGED TOGETHER SATUR-
 DAY MORNING
Both Men Died Protesting Their
 Innocence.

NEWPORT, KY, March 20.-Seott Jackson and Alonzo Walling were hanged today for the murder of Pearl Bryan, January 31, 1896. Both men were cool and nervy to the last, and they died protesting their inno- cence and declaring their confessions
 were made for effect on the governor.
 The morning hours preceding the execution were, however, full of ex- citing scenes. A plan to gain time for Jackson and possibly respite for Walling worked from early
 morning up until the men started to
 the gallows. In the morning Jack son made another confession, in
 which he said Walling was not gull ty of murder, anu Gov. Bradley was telegraphed accordingly. Many false reports were soon circulated about respite being granted Wall ing and these reports caused much excitement among large crowds assembled in the vicinity of the iail. At times there were apprehensions of trouble, but the local police force and deputy sheriffs were assisted by a large force of military, and order was maintained throughout the forenoon.
 When it was announced that Gov. Bradley had ordered the execution of both men to proceed and that there would be no interference what ever, there were continued shouts of approval.
 The scafiold was in the courtyard where it could be seen by many of the thousand of people from sur rounding buildings. and there was q great demonstration when tie black flag was hoisted as the signal that the execution was over. These sig- nais were also hoisted in Covington and Cincinnati, where there was as much excitement as here over the false reports about Walling being respited for four days. Soon after the execution the crowds dispersed, and the bodies of the men were taken away hE their friends, but u large number of visitors remained in the 'ity and were to be found in groups, expressing their satisfaction over the result. Quite large party of friends of the Bryan family were present rom Greencastle, Ind, and they were gery much exercised over the sus- oense in the forenoon.
