sermon. OF ROchambeau he said, in
part:
Without detracting from the merits
of his brothers-in-arms, I can affirm
that Rochambeau was the flower Of the
French allied army. Mature in years,
experienced in military campaigns, a
veteran of the seven years war calm,
deliberate, self-poised, he was a man
according to Washington's own heart
the general on whose counsel and
prudence he could rely more than on
that of any other commander.
May the friendship existing between
France and America friendship
cOeval with our history as a nation
friendship TO which we owe our ex-
istence as an independent and sover-
eign power-may this historic friend
ship be perpetuated. May it be
strengthened and consolidated by the
iron bonds of commerce and by the gol-
den links Of brotherly love May the
two great republics Of the world 20
hand in hand in the march of liberty,
progress and civilization. And may the
monument erected to ROchambeau in
the capital of the nation ever remind
the American citizen who Will contem-
plate it of the everlasting debt of graf
itude which the United States owes to
France"

LYNCHING FATE
OF A WHITE MAN
Mob Waivers Twice, But Finally
Secures Prey.
PLEA FOR LAW IS IGNORED
VICTIMS FATHER AND BROTH
Err ADJUST THE ROPE.

n ARTS, Mo, May 25.-Abe Witherop,
the white murderer of William
Grow, who was killed last month,
was taken from the Paris jail at ?
O'Clock this morning, marched to the
bridge on the north edge Of the town
and hanged by a mob of more than 100
men, who rode quietly into town at
midnight.
The mob went at once to the jail. but
was held back for more than an hour
by Sheriff James W. Clark and Depu-
ties Martin Clark and Polk Masterson,
who stood before the entrance to the
jail stockade with drawn revOIvers and
threatened to shoot the first man who
attempted to force an entrance.
The mob remained in front Of the
jail for nearly two hours, parleying
with the officers, finally marching
away. The officers remained on guard,
but believed that the mob had dis
banded.
About 2 o'clock several men ap-
preached and engaged the sheriff and
his deputies IN conversation. Then
suddenly, before the officers could de-
fend themselves, they were seized, dis
armed and carried away. The mob
then quickly reappeared, surrounded
/ the Jail again and with sledge hammers
battered down the big iron doors. This
was the work Of but a few minutes.
James H. Whitecotton, state repre-
sentative, rushed into the Jail as soon
as the doors gave way, and made a
stirring appeal to the mob to desist
and allow the law to take its course.
The leaders WaVered for a minute and
became quiet and would probably have
spared the prisoners life. but for the
frenzied cries for vengeance set up by
those in the rear. Mr.. Whitecotton
was swept aside and in a few minutes
WitherOp was secured.
The man made no resistance, and in
reply to questions confessed his guilt
The father and brother Of the victim
were in the mob and assisted in escort
ing the man to the bridge, a quarter
of mile away. At the bridge With
crops feet were tied by the brother Of
the murdered man and the senior Grow
adjusted the rope about his neck and
pushed him off the structure.
WitherOp's neck was broken by the
! fall. His death was almost instantane-
Gus.
Their work done. the mob left the
body hanging and dispersed quickly
and quietly.
Coroner Johnson cut the body down
/ this morning.
Witherop, before his death, made a
/ full confession. He said the killing,
which took place about four weeks
[ ago, was the result of a quarral over
I a piece of land the two men were
| farming together. Witherop attacked
/ Grow one night as he lay in bed, split
l ting his head open with a hatcher. He

and dumped it in. Witherup was IS

MEAT FAMINE MAY
RESULT FROM STRIKE

Chicago, May 25.-Five hundred
union teamsters, employed in the de-
livery of meat by the packers. went
on strike at midnight for a substan-
tiaI increase in wages and for shorter
hours. AS a result of the strike the
men say no meat will be delivered
to retail dealers tomorrow or at rail-
road stations for shipment out of the
city.
The strikers claim that they have
received assurances of support from
the other labor organizations whose
members are employed at the stock
yards, and that any attempt by the
packers to fill their places with nom
union teamsters will result in a gen
eral tie-up Of the packing houses.
The strikers assert that committees
from them have been denied confer
ences by the managers of the different
packing houses.
