LYNCHING OF ZEIGLER
SEVERAL PERSONS ARRESTED
 FOR THE CRIME.
Now Claimed That the Mobbing of the Negro Was Result of His Testimony in Defama-
 tion Case.

Troy. April 11.-tSpccial. )-Considerab bic excitement has been created by the ar rest of a number of pHi in the neigh borhood of Tarentum, charged with lynching Bill zeigler. heretofore mem ticned in the columns of The Advertiser.
 Today Sheriff J. NJ. Reeves accom- panied by Sheriff s. D. May of Crenshaw County and Deputies Carroll Nichols.

Green Ganus, Beve PnlSard. Yves Norton and Joe Cay Tor and his wife, Mary Jane Caylor, and returned with them to the county jail t! l.; evening,
 In an interview with Sheriff Reeves. he stated to your correspondent that when ne arrived in the neighborhood of the lynching this morning, MT. Maulin, whose daughter was said to have been assaulted by Bill Zeiglcr. came to him and told him that the little girl was not so much a. touched by the negro He said that the negro had worked with him two or three years and had always been per fectly humble and truthful. The sheriff further stated in substance that the bet ter element of the people rejoiced that st p' were being taken to bring the lynch- CTS to justice, the community was almost terrorized.
 The woman. Mary Jan, Caylor. had been prosecuted for the defamation of the daughter of Alex Bragg. and the testi- mony of tho negro was damaging to her She had said that it was the last time the negro would swear against her or anybody else on earth.
 It Is reported that she gave Mir Maul- dia's little girl some candy to charge the negro with assault which resulted in the lynching.

Negro Hanged in St. Louis for Mur- der-Governor Dockery's Stay of Proceedings Was in Vain.
 F1utcher's Speech.

St Louis. April 11.-Henry Flutcher. a negro, was hanged at sunrise today for the murder of Louis Roth. 16 years old. August 2. 1900.
 At 6:45 a. m.. just 35 minutes after the fatal drop fell, the following tele- gram was received by the Sheriff from fifteen days:

Mir Folke not being there Sheriff Dickmann received office at Jefferson City. and stated that the Folke message had been delivered to the Governors Mansion. It read

Messenger 'eports Governor would not come to door, Stuck his head out of second story window. asked: What is wanted?' Messenger told him nature of messa ge He told him to put it under door; made no reply"
 Sheriff Dickman concluded that this meant no interference and went on with his preparations for the execution.
 Flutcher was told of the circumstance but evinced no surprise at the outcome. He lost all hope at midnight.
 About 300 persons were present at the hanging.
 The boy walked to the gallows with steady step. and when asked by the Sheriff if he wished to say anything. be- gan a speech that occupied three min utes He declared that he fired the fatal shot. but disavowed any intention of murder. His object he said, was merely to disarm his assailant
 Flutcher concluded as follows.

say that not only have been prosecuted
 but relentlessy persecuted as well. This
 shameful end to my life, a boys life.
 marks the final. triumph of money over justice.
 The time Is past when anything can
 be done. Death Is. very near to me but before it lays its hands on me let me say a parting word: "Shun evil companions, advice that Is just as good for the old as for the young. Had done so there would have been no fight. no shooting. no hangman's noose" With wide sweep of his right hand he bade the crowd goodbye and turned to the Sheriff.
 Final prayer was said. and twenty
 seconds later Sheriff Dickmann sprung the trap. Butchers neck was broken in the drop.
 After a formal inquest the body was turned over to the family. 'I did my duty" said Sheriff Dick
 mann. after the hanging. and I'm glad it's over.
 The death warrant called on me to ex- l~ecute Flutcher between the hours of 6 i in the morning and in the afternoon. Ii was nearly twenty-five minutes after
 in the morning when the drop fell. The answer to MT. Folks telegram to the Governor came to Four Courts at 2:30 In the morning in the form of a dispatch from the Western Union office at Jeffer- son City.
 MT Folk had gone home, and I open ed the telegram thinking it might con tam repr1eNe. Instead it said that the Governor had come to window and been
 told the nature of the message. and had directed it to be placed under the door, and had shut the window down without sending an answer. "I supposed that ended the matter and left no hope. Mir. Folk. whom one of the newspaper men called over the telephone
 thought the same and so did the prison
 CT. He had given up hope early Thurs
 day and did not express any expectation
 of respite.
 "Anv way don't hold myself to blame
 The Governor is the one who had tho
 authority and he is responsible for the
 whole incident
 Deputy Sheriff Charles Bilhartz. who received and opened tho telegram con- taining the reprieve from the Governor. says that the message was received twen- ty minutes after 1t had been filed in Jef-
 ferson City. It came to the Western Unions office at Eighth Street and was delivered bv messenger who had run the entire distance to the Four Courts.

ROOSEVELT At CHATTANOOGA
Visited the BattIefeIdS Which Made the
City Famous

Chattanooga, Tenn, Sept. 8.--Presi-
dent Roosevelt was the guest yester-
day Of the citizens of Chattanooga
and right royalty then entertained
him. He came to Chattanooga prim.
arily to attend the national convention
OF the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Firemen. and today he was the guest
of the railroad men, but yesterday
Chattanooga entertained him. From
early morsing until late last evening
he was ta-rn from one historic place
to another. and the details of the bat
ties that have made this city famous
were explained to hin by mon who
were participants in the struggles.
The battlefelds of Chickamauga,
Missionary Ridge, Orchard Knob and
Lookout Mountain were driven over.
He attended services at the First Bap-
tist Church, of which Rev. j. w.
Brougher is the pastor last night.
A very pleasing incident occurred
during the presidents inspection of the
battlehelds. A delegation of citizens
of Georgia, headed by II, r. Harper, OF
Rome. presented to him a cane cut
from the Chickamauga battlefield. II is
of hickory, with a silver head and band
suitably inscribed. On the head is the
| following:
Presented to President Roosevelt by
citizens of the Seventh congressional
district of Georgia, September Z, 1902.
On the band are the names of six o.
the generals who participated in the
battle OF Chickamauga-Lon
Wheeler Hood, Rosecrans, Thomas anC
Boynton. The Seventh Georgia dis
trict was the home OF President Roose
velt's mother and he alluded to thiI
fact in accepting the gift.

KILLED and INJURED IN
MAGAZINE EXPLOSION

Boston, Sept S.-One of the govern
ment powder magazines at Old Fort
Winthrop, on Governors Island, upper
Boston harbor. blew up last evening
with a dctonation that was heard at
points 20 miles away. The explosion
Is supposed to have been caused by
boys setting fires on the island. One
dead man and five injured were brought
to the city by the police boat, and while
it is believed that this is the extent
Of the casualties, it Is possible that
others may be found suffering from the
force of the concussion.
The dead mans name is Albert H.
Cotton. of Somerville. The injured
are: James A. Crowley, aged 21; Chris
tian Knudson, aged S9 Charles Flan-
nagan, aged %; Dennis ]. Swanson,
aged "a. and Paul Barry, 26 years old,
all having flesh wounds, besides suf-
fering from shock
There are several old ramshackle
wooden buildings at the southerly end
Of the island, but the fort itself only
little of which is visible above the
ground, is of stone, some of the granite
blocks being Of immense size. The
force of yesterdays explosion is shown
by the fact that some OF these great
blocks were hurled several hundred
yards. while one of the largest was sent
into the air and came down through
the citadel in the centre of the fort,
making a hole large enough to drive
team Of horses through. All over the
island effects of the explosion are visi-
bic. while in East Boston, South Bos-
ton and in the city proper the concus-
sion was severe enough to break win
dows and shake buildings to theil
foundations.
