ports and documents bearing on the abstrac-
tion of papers from the safe in the office OF
the assistant attorney general for the Post
office Department carefully collected. In
the morning he will transmit them, togeth-
er with the general summarization of all the
facts, to the Department of Justice. 1t

Knox to decide what. if any. action will
be taken against Mrs. Tyner Mrs. Barrett
and the safe expert, who are responsible
for the removal of the documents.
The presentation of the case to the De-
partment of Justice will undoubtedly in
clude the affidavits of Mr.. Christiancy. who
was in charge of the office when the safe
was rifed. and of all other government
employees who have any knowledge of the
facts.
Answering an inquiry from the attorney
general, Mr.. Payne will transmit a list of
the papers which Mrs. Tyner secured. with
the explanation that it was furnished by
the attorneys for the Tyners. He will
make no statement as to whether the list
includes all the papers taken, but in re-
lating the facts in connection with the
statement of the attorneys and Of the orig
inal refusal of Mrs. Tyner to deliver over
the contents of the safe Immediately after
her arrival at her home he will leave the
question open as to whether the statement
of the Tyner attorneys covers everything

day relative to the request of Mr.. Chris
tiancy, who has been in charge of the

relieved while an investigation of its af-
fairs was In force. Mr.. Payne told the
attorney general that 1t was his desire to
grant Mr.. Christiancys request. Together
the two Cabinet officers canvassed the list
of men in the employ of the Department OF
Justice and reached decision as to who
would be appointed to have charge OF the
Office during Mr.. Christiancy's leave of alb
sence. The name of the man selected will
be made public tomorrow after the offer
is made to him and he has accepted it.

TO the inability of his adversaries to cite
any example of the Mormon teachings
which have been subversive of the laws
of the state or of orderly citizenship. He
declares also that by the command Of the
supreme head of the church polyganiy Is

IS extended TO the Mormon missionaries by
Emperor William. and If the orders OF ex-
pulsion are enforced. all the missionaries

affair at Olsenbruek. Prussia, last January,
when two missionaries We're dragged
through the streets of the town and inn
prisoned for three days. They were de-
ported to Hanover, where they were again

been forwarded to Senators Kearns and

live mile north of this city, this morning

negro-Joe Shvey-who had been living
there several weeks. Shively was roughly
handled, taken to a grove Of trees near the
house, tied TO a sapling and severely
beaten.
A few minutes afterward the two white
women and Shively's sister. young coll
ored girl, were taken from the house.
stripped to the waist, and whipped until
the blood ran. The mob was led by a tall
man, whose orders were obeyed implicitly.
He allowed no talking and the punishment
given the four was administered i'm silence.

by terrified neighbors.
The Stevens house has borne a bad repu-
tation in this community. 1t was learned
by the members Of the mob that a negro
had been living at the house for some time
on terms of perfect equality with the
white women. His sister also was there.
Stories of more or less unprintable nature
the house would be severely dealt with had
been whispered around. So far as known no
warning of the proposed visit of the white

LIEUT.. GOV. LEE RESIGNS
MISSOURI OFFICIAL SENDS RESIGNA-
TION TO GOVERNOR DOCKERY.
Says Holding a Position of Trust Is a
Thankless Task-His Successor Is
nm Anti-Alum Man.

ST. LOUIS, April 26.-Lieutenant Cover
nor John A. Lee to-day rendered his resig-
nation to Governor Dockery. The resig-
nation was mailed to the Governor at JEFF
ferson City this afternoon. after Mr.. Lee
his advisers. The resignation will be deliv-
cred to Governor Dockery.
1t is not necessary that the resignation
be accepted by Governor Dockery. Under
the state Constitution a resignation is self
operative and becomes effective the mo-
ment it is filed with the Governor.
Senator Thomas T. Rubey, of Lebanon,
Mo-. president pro tenn. of the Senate.
who represents the Ninth senatorial dis
trict, succeeds to the office of Lieutenant
Governor.
Lieutenant Governor Lees resignation is
voluntary. Until Saturday he had not de-
cided what course he wodld pursue and
declined TO say whether he would resign.
After consultation with his advisers yester-
day and to-day he decided to withdraw
from office and tonight he announced to
his friends that he had again become a
private citizen.
In speaking of his action he expressed
qualification in laying aside the cares and
holding a position OF trust was a thankless
job at the best. Mr.. Lee seemed relieved as
a result of his action and expressed no re-
grets over relinquishing office. He declined
to talk of the possibilities of the grand jury
investigation now in progress, or of what
his future action would be in regard to the
inQuisitiOn.
Thomas T. Rubey, who succeeds to the
Office, is fOrty-one years old and is a grad
uate of the State University at Columbia,
Mo. He was formerly member of the fac
ulty of the School of Mines and Metal
lurgy, at Rolla, Mo-, and resigned this pos
itiOn to engage In the banking business at
Macon. Later he moved to Lebanon and
was elected to the Senate in 1900. He was a
holdover senator in the Forty-second Gen.
eral Assembly.
During his legislative career he voted and
worked against the interest of the baking
powder combination.
Mr.. Lee tonight gave out the following
public statement:
"A desire to retire from political life and
personal publicity has caused my resigna-
ton.
Now, that am just a private citizen,
hope that my enemies and critics will for
get some of my faults and mistakes and
try to remember, IL possible, some of the
things that / might be commended for.
If one has failed to fulfill the public re-
quirements anC has made an error Ii
seems to me that when he voluntarily re-
linquishes all claims to Office and honor
and sets out to make whatever reparation
he can, that he should, at least, be per-
mitted to continue to live.
legislative matters has brought on me
troubles that / could have avoided by a
policy of silence and concealment and that
determination to do right and refusal to be
deferred therefrom has brought about my
political downfall"
