WOMEN SAID "BURN"
Colorado Won't Punish the
ExeCutioners of Porter.
Capital Punishment viii Doubtless be ReinS ated
in the State and Criminal Assault Made
Capital Crime.
(By the Associated Press.)

Lmon, Colo, Nov. lit is unlikely an
inquest will be held over the remains of
Preston Porter. Jr.. the self confessed
murderer Of Louise Frost, who was burn
ed at the stake by a mob at Lake station
last night. In fact the coroner can find
no remains upon which TO hold an inquest
A few men remained late last night at
the spot out on the prairie. where the
murder was committed and avenged, and
renewed the fire again and again, until
every vestige OF the negro was consumed
The ircn rail to which Porter was bound
will be left standing.
About 700 people witnessed the lynch
ing. No women were there, but many OF
them went to the scene before the fire
was lighted and remained while the negro
was led from carriage to carriage for
inspection. Their vote was a unit for
burning.
THE OTHER NEGROES RELEASED.
Denver, Colo, Nov. 17.-No measures
have been considered with a view of
prosecuting any members of the mob that
burned Porter. and it is unlikely that
any will be taken. Governor Thomas re-
fuses to express an opinion in regard to
the affair
District Attorney McAllister, of the
judicial district in which Lincoln county
is a part, said that prosecution of the
leaders would be utterly futile, owing to
public sentiment He condemned the re-
moval OF Porter to Lincoln.
Clergymen Of this city unanimously
deprecate the method pursued in the
lynchng. but scme of them say the ne
gro should have been hanged or shot.
A movement to reinstate capital pun
ishment in the statutes of Colorado has
received an impetus from the murder Of
Louise Frost, and the lynching. A bill
with this object in view is now being
drawn and it's advocates. it is said, will
make an aggressive fight for its enact
ment at the coming session of the Legis-
lature. Criminal assault probably will be
made a capital crime.
Preston Porter and Arthur Porter,
father and brother, respectively of the
murderer, were released from Jail today.
They intend to return to their home at
