CARRoLLToN, Miss, Aug. q
The murder of Mr.. and Mrs. Tai
iaferro on the night ofJuly 30 led
last evening at 5 o'clock to the
lynching of Betsie McCray, her
son. Belfield McCray, and daugh-
ter, Ida McCray, all negroes.
The mob was composed of 500
white citizens of Carroll county,
who marched to the jail, got the
keys from jailer Duke, went to
the cells of the negroes, bound
them by the neck and hands, and
carried them to the corporate
limits of the town, where they
hanged them to a tree by the
public roadside and riddled their
bodies with bullets.
The mob disregarded the earn
est advice of Judge w. F. Steph-
ems and w. S. Hill, who stood on
the steps of the Jail and appealed
to the mob in the name of law
and order. The two men even
followed the mob to the cell
doors with their arms around the
necks of the leaders, pleading
with them to let the law take its
course, but without effect.
Ida McCray confessed to knowl-
edge ~of the murders and stated
that her mother, Betsie, and her
brother Belfield, helped commit
the crimes. She implicated
others, who will probably meet
like fate. Betsie McCray re-
fused TO make any statement.
Governor A. H. Longino ar
rived on the scene by special
train from Jackson a few minutes
after the lynching. He address
ed a large and attentive audience
at the court house, impressing
upon his hearers the duty Of
their citizenship and obedience
to law and order.
The best citizens of the county,
among whom were w. F. Steph-
ems, w. S.. Hill. district attorney;
Senator A. B. George, and L. w.
Southworth, labored with the
mob all day to induce it to allow
the law to take its course, but
without avail.

To insure the stopping of the
train, three or four bags of sand
and two short rails were placed
across the track. The red light
seen by the engineer was waved
about 800 feet from this obstruc-
ton.
Engineer Collins said last
night that he had no suspicion
of train robbers when he saw
the light.

that time than on the first trip,

were more than three men en-
gagged in the robbery. for l saw
two other men standing beside
the track just at the time the en-
gineer pulled out with the two
cars. They cyl 'ertly saw that
their companions had made a
mistake and judged that delays
were dangerous, for after shout
ing to the men who were with
the engineer and fireman, they
ran into the bushes.
F. A. Apologize, of Newark.
Ohio, was the express messenger
and was alone in his car. He
had no idea that a robbery was
being attempted until he heard
the shooting on the outside. He
then seized a rife an dclimbing
on the top of the safe, awaited
developments, determined to
make the best fight in his power.
He was not molested in any way,
however. He said there was
considerable gold and silver in
the car and that the robbers
might have secured a rich booty
if they had come to the right
place. Il had no idea of what |

press officers refused to say how
much money there was in the
car.

flesh that ever wore iron, and the
great all-conquering hero did not
disappoint them, for gamer ex
hibition against the watch was
never made, as the time, 2:024,
would at least have been one
second faster only for the head
on wind he had to face coming
up the home stretch.
The game horses now equally
famous owner. driver, and train
er, George Ketcham, appeared
on the track with Cresceus a
little before 3 o'clock. The horse
and driver were royalty received,
and met with a trependous ova-
ton as he passed the stand. The
champion logged three miles
slower than three minutes, and
one in 2:22. An hour later he
came out again, and after scor
ing several times, stepped a mile
in 2:25. At half past four he
worked out for the last time in
2:15t. He evidently had great
power in reserve, and the vast
throng waited patiently for the
great test.
1t was evident that the wind
would not decrease before dark,
and consequently at $40 the
stallion was brought out for the
final test.
? Tim Murnan was ready to &C.
company him with a runner, and
Dan Laho waited at the half-mile
pole to take him on from there
with another galloper.
On the fifth score Ketcham
nodded for the word, but Cres-
ceus was not going to suit him,
and he pulled up at the first turn
to try it again. Down to the
wire he rushed, the runner two
lengths behind, and this time it
was a go. Gamely facing the
breeze, the champion started on
his journey. The runner caught
him at the quarter, and a sup
pressed cheer went up, quarter
of a second less than thirty.
Now the wind was at his back,
and realizing the advantage,
Ketcham kept him at his great
clip.
The half mile pole was passed
in 500 seconds, a record never
before attained by a trotter in a
public trial, and here the second
runner caught him up.
The three-quarter pole was
reached and passed in the won
derful time of 1904.
Then came the great trial, for
as Cresceus turned into the
stretch, the bitter wind beat him
in the face, and held him back
by force. For the fraction of a
second he seemed to falter, but
his drivers voice was in his ears
and on he came. With that in
domitable courage which makes
him what he is, he plunged in
toward the finish with unweak-
ened stride, and in spite of wear
mess, and the buffeting of the
breeze, flashed under the wire a
winner against man and horses

TRAIN ROBBERS

CHICAGO, ILL.,. Aug, -Four
masked men held up the New

on the Bait more and Ohio rail
road at Calumet Heights at 8
O'Clock last night. They secured
no cash. They blew open one
of the baggage cars, thinking it

scrub oak to the west. going to-
ward Tracy, Ind.
A special train bearing police
MN under command of Captain
Shippy left South Chicago at l
O'Clock this morning for the
scene of the robbery.
The attempt at train robbery
is one of the boldest on record.
There is little doubt it would
have been successful had there
been a safe in the baggage car,
as the robbers expected. The
train was brought to stop by
the swinging of a red light
across the tracks. It was a
lonely place with open prairie
studded here and there with
scrub oak. None of the train
men made any resistance to the
robbers, the shooting kept up by
the bandits effectually prevent
ing them from making fight or
following the men.
AS soon as the train came to
standstill two of the robbers
mounted the engine, and, placing
revolvers at Engineer j w. Col
Inns and Fireman F. S. Deveny's
heads, told them to get down,
and waste no time. The robbeI
followed, and while one stood
guard over the engineer the
other walked the fireman to the
rear OF the baggage car, which
was the second car back of the
engine, and compelled him to
uncouple the two cars from the
train. Then they returned to
the engine, and the engineer
was ordered to go ahead about
200 feet.
AS soon as this was done one
of the robbers produced bunch
of dynamite sticks, and, placing
one at the door of the baggage
car, lighted the fuse and told the
engineer and fireman to stand
back. The explosion did not
blow open the door, but loosened
it, and the man with the dyna-
mite then lighted another stick
and threw it into the car through
a wide crack that mad been made
This explosion blew a big hole
in the side of the car and in the
floor. The robbers then COM
PEELED the engineer and fireman
to get up into the car with them,
and quick search was made for
the safe.
All the time the bandits were
operating with the baggage car,
they kept up constant firing to
keep tie crew in subsection, and
to compel the passengers to re-
main inside the coaches. The
passengers were not otherwise
disturbed.
Not finding what they sought,
one of the robbers said:
What will we do now?"
The other said: "Let's get out
of this"
Both leaping to the ground,
they ran to the side of the track,
climbed the fence and were lost
in the darkness.
While this was going on in the
front part of the train the other
masked bandits were keeping
watch over the train standing on
the track. They fired frequent
ly, but no one was hurt, the pas
sengers remaining Il. the coaches
and the crew making no sign.

were with the engineer quit TIE

Died at HOughtOn.

Benjamin Ferguson, who made
L'Anse his home for several years,
died in st. Joseph's hospital at
Houghton Monday afternoon at 5
o'clock. He had been sick only
three or four days, his illness being
characterized as typhoid fever,
death coming very suddenly.
Deceased had numerous relatives
residing in this village, some of
them going to Houghton to attend
the funeral. He was about 40
years of age and a single man.
During his residence in L'Anse he
generally followed the occupation
of teamster. He left this village
about two years ago. The funeral
was held at Houghton, Wednesday
morning at 9 o'clock, interment
taking place in that city.
