which they finally consented by loos-

came from him but denial in a gen.
ersl way. Uries for Ed Lewis, hus-
band Of the murdered woman, went
up and he stepped forward and ap
piled the match. As the flames began
to circle the body the NEGRO uttered
most agonizing cries and yelled:
III You will give me chance I'll
tell you something"
The flaming fuel was scattered and
the suffering man unbound. In clear
tone he said: Henry Armstrong Is
the guilty man and / can prove IL"
The mob dispatched three Of their
number to go after Armstrong. eight
miles away.
Many questions were put and in an
swering he made q fatal statement
which contradicted his statement i'm
plicating Armstrong. The crowd ao-
cepted no further explanation aud for
the second time he was made fast to
the tree Of torture.
The fire was quickly rekindled and
as wild and powerful efforts to rid
himself Of the horrible torture caused
the bands to slaoken and his body
swayed backward Immediately over
the hottest portion of the fire, when
suffocation assisted in making life ex-

ADMIRAL SCHLEY.
PRESENTED BY THE CITY OF
DALLAS WITH LOVING CUP.

Dallas, Tex. Oct. 2l-Admiral
Sohley spent busy day in Dallas.
The admiral was the central figure of
a splendid parade and was afterward
presented with loving cup, donated
by the city of Dallas. The general
public was given an opportunity to
meet the naval hero at reception
held in the Dallas club rooms and last
night a reception was given him by
the SwiEs and German Societies.
Also a grand banquet in honor of Ad-
miral Schley was given at the orien-
tai hotel. In responding to the adj
dress of General NJ. NJ. Crane, who
presented the loving cup, Admiral
schley spoke feelingly. He said that
IL he could share the honors with
Cook, Clarke and Phillip, who did so
much to help him in the battle of San
tisgo, his measure Of happiness would
be complete. Mrs. Sohley's condition
has improved but she is still confined
to her room.

They Will Try to Come to Some
Agreement Today.
Desire . Uniform Law Fixing the
Closing Hours-11:S0 p. m.
Acceptable.
PRELIMINARY MEETING TODAY

A movement is on foot among the
liquor dealers of the city to decide on
an hour for closing their places Of
business at night, and to ask the mu-
nicipal legislative boards to adopt an
ordinance embodying their agreement
into regulation. There will be
meeting held this afternoon Of the
wholesale men, brewery agents and
saloon proprietors, and it is believed
that a generally satisfactory hour will
be agreed on by them
This will be quite a surprise to the
other side, who doubtless thought that
the liquor people intended to make q
fight.
There is no intention, however, on
their part to DO contentious
1: is probable that the hours agreed
on for closing every saloon in the city
will be 80 p. m. Saloon men will
not agree to 10 p. m, claiming it is
too early.
A prominent saloon man said today,
in explaining their position; "We
have no desire to violate the law, or
impose on the public. No one is
forced to come into our places. No
one is 'lured' as / have seen it put,
into any of our places that know Of.
We do a legitimate business, and want
to follow strictly the letter of the
law. We do not desire to impose on
the public, and 80 faras / am con-
oerned, think most all Of us would
welcome law closing every saloon at
reasonable hour Of the night, soy
1870 p. m. Ten O'Clock is too early,
but there would be little objection to
II 80.
About the Sunday law, all that
can be said is that if the law were en-
forced the saloons would be closed.
There is no use in agitatiDg that mat
ter at all, as the reason the saloons are
open on Sunday is that the law is not
enforced, not because there is no law.
at is fact that good many sa-
loon keepers keep open because the
other fellow does, an d no one would
rather have a uniform closing law
than a great many of us. But we do
not want it to be unreasonably early"
After an agreement is reached, the
council will be petitioned to enact
an ordinance prescribing the things
sought by the liquor dealers. They
say that they are just as anxious to
obey the law and be good citizens as
any one and will prove it. They do
not desire to keep open day and night
and Sunday, but want law that will
protect each by requiring one and all
treated alike.
