URGES DEATH FOR ROBBERS.
Share DIR. Roberts Capital Pun
fShment Views.

Chicago. Nov. 29.-In his sermon before
the Jefferson Park Presbyterian church
congregation yesterday morning Rev. Mr..
Frank Dewitt Talmage, commenting on the
open and concealed wickedness of cities,
said:
And the difference between some of our
that either do not sin, but that the one is
ashamed of its sins and the other is not.
The one covers them up and the other does
not. And that is the reason why the con-
dition of Chicago to-day Is in such q des-
picable state-so despicable that in broad
church honest men and women can be
robbed at the point of a pistol as easily as
q traveller can be knocked down by the club
of a Bedouin robber.
There are two causes for this. First,
because Chicago Is the dumping ground Of
and all the thugs and the thieves and the
loafers and the raScals and the anarchists
and the 'cranks' and the general dead
beats at large make this city their rendez-
V0us and this camp their winter quarters,
and what they cannot beg they try to steal;
about time that these outrages stopped. If
ten or twelve of these scoundrelS were shot
down in cold blood it would bring the rest
of these murderers to their senses: and 1
call upon our courts and our legislature
to raise the penalty of punishment higher
sary. be the gallows. so that an honest man
can walk along the boulevardS of this great
city without carrying a pistol in his pocket
to save his own life. For l stand here to
assert one of these two awful facts: Either

RESULT OF A LYNcHING.
Two Indian Murderers Escape
U~npunished.

Bismarck, N. D.. Nov. ga report has
reached here from the Standing Rock res
ervation that the mother of Phillip Ireland.
one of the young Indians recently lynched
at Williamsport, has committed suicide be-
cause of the disgraceful death of her son.
There is a belief among the Indians that
any person who may be hanged will never
reach the happy hunting grounds, the heav-
en- of the Indians. This is the reason that
the Indians at Standing Rock wanter the
Indians shot and not hanged.
Although the motion has been made by
States Attorney Armstrong. of Emmons
county. for their dismissal. Frank Black
county Jail here and will not be released
until tomorrow morning, when General
Crimsie. of the Standing Rock reservation,
will be here to take the men back to the
reservation. The feeling against black
hawk especially is SO bitter in Emmons
unit that the authorities are averse to
releasing them until they have some means
of returning to the reservation, lest they
be gathered in by a mob and share the
same fate that was meted to their three
companions.
Another lynching is freely predicted If
they fall into the hands of m county
by States Attorney Armstrong to-day for
the principal reason that the witnesses of
the state had passed beyond the Jurisdiction
of the court. and the state felt satisfied
they would never return or become at any
future time amenable to the jurisdiction of
the court. In other words, they had been
lynched.

every effort to quench the flames, but a
brisk wind was blowing and spread the
fire with great rapidity. From the steam

The lumber was soon a mass of flames and

Able to Show Pop Gains
i'm Nebraska.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 29.-To-day Mr.. W. j.
Bryan gave for the first time his analysis
of the vote in his own state. 1t shows.
SO he asserts. that the fusion candidate for
judge polled a larger plurality than Mr..
Bryan himself did last year. although the
vote was smaller. Mr.. Bryan explains the
progress made since the presidential contest
by pointing out that the anti-Republican
majority is greater in Nebraska this year
than ever before. Mr.. Bryan says:
In 1896 the fusion electors, representing
the Democrats. Populists and silver Repub-
licans of Nebraska. received an average
plurality of 1900 over the Republican elect
ors. and a majority of s.143 over all. This
year the fusion candidates for supreme
judge received a plurality of 1853 over the
Republican candidate. and a majority of
1876 over all. This gain of $50 in plurality
of u decrease of about $4,000 of the total
vote polled. The gold Democrats polled less
than half as many votes this year as last
