BRYAN's WA RECORD.
He Resigned His Position After Being
Ordered to Cuba,

Des Moines, Oct. 25.-(Special cor
respondence)-The statement having
been made by Secretary of State Dob
son, in his speech at Newton, Iowa.
few nights ago, that Col. Bryan re-
signed his commission in the Spanish
war after the regiment was ordered
to Cuba, it was denied vehemently by
certain democrats who challenged the
truth of the assertion. There was no
question in the minds of those who
knew the history of the events con-
nected with the sudden departure of
the doughty colonel from Nebraska to
the front, as to the truth of Mr.. Dob
sons statement, but in order to abso-
lutely prove it and furnish evidence
that cannot be controverted, tele-
gram was sent to Adjt. General Corbin
at Washington, with request for In
formation on this point. The follow
| ing telegram in answer was received
at republican headquarters yesterday:

SULTAN Creates Enthusiasm

Altho the cane-noise had been very
encouraging all the time, the part of
Mr.. Wright's speech that treated with
the Sulu treaty brought out the best
efforts OF the cane men. He dwelt up
on the depravity of the administration
that recognized country in which
bigarny was fostered, and declared
that the treaty was The most disgrace
full document in American history. His
strong point, however, the one where
the canes were almost broken, was
when he made heroic efforts to pro-
nounce the names of certain Sulus.
Judging from the applause, this inabil-
ity to say what those foreign names
were, was one of the strongest argu-
ments Mr. Wright made in favor of
William Jennings Bryan.
For some reason the free silver
plank of the platform of the democ-
racy was passed up" last evening.
The peroration was an oratorical gem,
altho in the matter of truth in might
be said to be able to be contradicted.
1t was replete with enthusiastic gym.
nastic movements and the ever pres.
ent "cuss words" which formed a
goodly part of Mr.. Wright's arguments

and living with his third wife, was ar

on the charge of criminal assault upon
a little girl. Late Sunday evening Sher-
~ Evans received q message request
ing him to come to Lisbon for the pur-
pose of lodging Stalnecker in the coun-

He examined the bond, however, and
decided that it was not sufficient and
ordered Constable Albright to take
Stalnecker into custody and to -o44
him un the preliminary examination.
which wild be held this afternoon.
Stalnecker is alleged to nave dragged
his little victim into an outbuilding,
and the evidence against him is said

PENALTY FOR BAD SHOOTING.
Two Georgia Negroes Lynched Be-
cause They Missed a Rabbit.

Macon. Ga, Oct 25.-Bad marks
manship on the part of negroes, if it
occurs in the neighborhood Of a white
mans house, has been added to the list
of crimes for which the penalty is
death by lynching.
A double murder, for this reason, is
the latest disgraceful blot on Georgia.
Last Monday two negroes were hunt
ty. While near a farmhouse they
fired, SO they say, at rabbit Some
of the birdshot entered the building
and scared the farmers daughter,who
was alone at the time When the
farmer returned he found the girl in a
hysterical condition.
L was soon decided that the men,
James Guer and James Galloway, had
with malice aforethought used the
house as a target, hoping, SO it was al
legged, to kill the farmer,
a posse was speedily organized and,
in the language of the man who tells
the story, soon ran the miscreants to
earth.
The negroes pleaded for their lives,
declaring that they had no intention of
hurting any one; that they had aimed
at a rabbit when some OF the birdshot
hit the house.
But the white men knew better, and
resolved to give the negroes of Georgia
an object lesson in the value of good
craftsmanship So they took the two
covering wretches into the woods
placed them on horses, tied ropes
around their necks, and fastened the
other ends to limbs of trees. The
| horses were then driven away and the
rebuke to poor shooting was complete
