------------------- ---------------------- SHERIFF HELD RESPONSIBLE
Missouri's Governor Flames Him for
 Lynching of Three Negroes.


 Lynching of Three Negroes. Jefferson City, Mo, Aug, 29.-Adju- tant General Dameron, in a report to Governor Cookery on the recent Pierce City race war, holds Sheriff Manlove of Lawrence county responsible for the lynching of the three negroes. Adju- tant Dameron says:
 will Cooley and Gene Carter had been suspected and the sheriff and his posse went out to arrest them, but for some cause did not see fit to do so. Monday afternoon the excitement at Pierce City was intense and the threats of lynching certain negroes thought to be implicated in the murder of Miss Wild were made. Under the excite ment the sheriff saw fit to leave for his home at Mount Vernon. It is generally believed that had Sheriff Manlove re- mained there when excitement ran high and threats of lynching were openly made and asked the aid of militia the trouble and loss of life would have been aVerted."

ert of the states attorneys direct
evitetce, that in the playing Of staid
game Of cards with said jurors, the
attorney thereby had no purpose to in
any wise infiucace tne said jurors
actions, in tie performance of their
