GRUES0ME DETAILS.
The Negroes Approve the Lynching at
Clarendon.

ST. Louis, Aug. 10.-A special to the
Post-Dispatch gives further details of
last nights lynching at Clarendon, Ark.
About midnight a mob Of 200 men took
from the Jail four negroes implicated in
the assassination of John It. Orr on July
30 and hanged them 10 a tramway of
the Hilpern sawmill in the rear of the
Jail. The persons hanged were: VIII
Sanders. who fired the shot that killed
Orr: Rilla Weaver. mother Of Sander
and a cook in the Orr household: Dem
mis- Record, a "hoodoo conjurer,' who
tried TO poison Orr with boiled snakes
heads, and Manse Castle. who volun-
teered to do the job snd transferred IL
to Sanders. Mrs. Rachel Morris. ac-
cused of being an accessory before the
fact. and Susie Jacobs, a negro wom-
an, accessory after the fact, made their
escape.
Mrs. Orr, wife of the murdered man.
was in the corridor of the jail when the
mob entered and she had taken some
thing with suicidal intent and the doe
tor says she will die. The mob EXAM
ined Mrs. Orr critically and passed her,
but many favored taking her with the
rest. Her death seems to be a matter
of but a few hours. If she RECEIVERS II
is stated the mob will hang her..
Last night only the jailor and two
deputies, r. F. Milire and II. Howard,
were at the jail, ii being felt the law
would be allowed to taxi its course.
Milire made an earnest effort to prevent
the mob taking the prisoners, going so
far as TO give out the statement he mad
% guards behind him and would order
them To fire should an attempt at fore
ing the door be made. The crowd hesi-
tated a mn then forced the outer
doors. MiAre. seeing further resistance
would be useless. turned over the keys
and unlocked the doors to the cells.
Great crowds viewed the gruesome
sight OF a woman and three men dan
Cling SIX feet from the ground with
their tongues ~protruding and the ropes
cutting deep into their necks. The ne
groes seem TO endorse the lynchlng and
many OF them are open in their express
sions of satifaction over the death OF
Dennis Record, whose arts of conjuring
and hoodoo made him an obJecto of dread
and fear.
II appears from letters received b.
Mrs. Orr in the name of her cook, Rila
Weaver. through whom all correspond

Rachel Morris were to remain here un-
til Orr's insurance money was collected
