TWO NEGR0S HANGED
They Robbed and Murdered a Man
and His Wife In MARYLAND.

ROCKVILLE, Nd, Aug. IS, 1s9a.-
Armistead Taylor and John Alfred Brown
were hanged this morning for the murder
Of Louis Rosenstein and his wife. The
drop fell at 1920 O'Clock.
Taylor and Brown robbed and murdered
Louis Rosenstein and his wife, Dora, on
the morning of May 15, 1889, at the little
town of Slidell, Montgomery county
Maryland. They entered the house early
in the morning. while the couple were
preparing breakfast beat them terribly
with an iron bar, ransacked the house,
and left their victims dying on the floor
securing about 500 in money before they
fled.
Suspicion was at once directed toward
Taylor who had been seen on the portico
of the Rosenstein house shortly before
the discovery of the murder, and a vigor-
ou search was begun. Brown was ar
rested, together with a woman with
whom he lived, mainly because Taylor
boarded with them and because it was
thought the couple might be able to give
some testimony as to the movements of
Taylor.
The latter was captured in house III
the District of Columbia about a week
after the murder, but in effecting his ar
rest fierce fight ensued resulting in Tay
lor shooting and killing one Of the officers
who We're attempting to capture him.
1t was discovered that a conviction for
murder in the first degree for the killing
of the officer could not be had, because
the latter had no warrant for Taylors
rest when he entered the murders house,
and the prisoner was taken TO Rockville
to be tried for the Rosenstein murders
On the way thither he made a confess
sion. duplicating Brown and both were
indicted. A change of venue was demand
ed and the men were tried in Cumberland
Allegheny county.
Taylor was convicted on July of the
murder Of Louis Rosenstein and sentenc-
ed to be hanged. On the following day
he appeared on the witness stand and
swore that Brown killed the woman and
got half the money Brown $ conviction
speedily followed, although he stoutly pro-
tested his innocence and there was little
other evidence against him.
Taylor who was about thirty years old.
had very bad record, having spent
more than half his life in prison. Brown,
on the other hand bore fairly good rep
utation, and was about forty years old.

went on strike in the salmon fishing
business. A corps of Salvation Army
arrived shortly afterwards and com.

were very popular for ON time. and
