REFUSES TO PROSECUTE.
sherIn of Lincoln County Declares II
Would BE Impossible to Punish
the Lynchers.

Denver, Col, Nov. 27.-The Rocky
Mountain News Monday prints the re-
ply of Sheriff Freeman, of Lincoln
county, to the letter of District Attor-
ney McAllister, of Colorado Springs,
Col, concerning the prosecution of
the persons who burned the negro
rapist and murderer, Preston Porter,
at the stake at Limon, Col, recently.
After telling of how he was influenced
into taking Porter from Denver to
Limon upon the assurance of leading
citizens of Lincoln county that he
would be allowed to pass through
Limon unmolested to Hugo, where he
would be permitted to place Porter in
the county Jail, Sheriff Freeman de-
clares that it would be impossible to
get jury in Lincoln or any adjoining
county that would convict anyone
charged with participation in the
burning of Preston Porter. He con-
cludes as follows:
IT do not justify the cremation. but I
do object to having you and Gov. Thomas
saddle the blame Of this burning on me
and l will not involve Lincoln county
in a needless and fruitless litigation
against its own citizens or give addition
al advertisement to the state of Colorado
for the sole purpose of making, as 1t
seems to me- political capital for some
body. l want to add that politics cut
no ice in this affair. While Lincoln
county is republican county, the men
who participated in this lynchng were
representatives of all political parties.
When 1t comes to administering death
to brute who first rapes a child and
then stabs and kicks her to death, take
1t that true Americans lose sight of mere
politics and remember only that they are
fathers and brothers. 1t seems to me
that we had better let this episode rest
where II now is"

Corn Up to so Cents.

Chicago, Nov. 27.--Standing in the
middle of the corn pit, watching close
ly every movement of the bewildered
and desperate shorts, George H. Phil
lips Monday sent the price of the yell
low grain to so cents, making good
his promises of last week. The baf-
fed bears fought the quotation with
the enthusiasm Of Kilkenny cats, but
to little avail. The price held firm
above last weeks mark. The grain was
sold all the. forenoon at AZ cents or
higher. The consignment sold at so
cents was purchased of Phillips by H,
H. Carr and consisted Of 5000 bushels.

New Form of phonograph.

Among the exhibits at the Paris
exposition was photograph, invent
ed by Naldemar Poulsen, Danish en-
gineer, which uses wire-wound in
stead of wax-covered cylinder. The
wire is of steel, and over it, in place
of the usual stylus, passes a small
electro-magnet connected with a tel
ephone transmitter and battery. The
sound waves cause a variation in the
intensity of the electromagnetic, ana
the magnet, acting upon the wire
passing beneath it, leaves a perma-
nent impression upon the latter.
Upon reversing the action the wire
reacts on the magnet and correspond
ing sounds are transmitted by the tel
ephone. In order to obliterate the
magnetic trace on the cylinder IL is
only necessary to revolve ii under the
magnet while this is subjected to a
continuous current.
