fendant. Mckenzie seems to take
the proceedings in a humorous way. is
continually smiling at the testimony
introduced against him, and for man

is actually smiling. John Ehlert was

met Mckenzie on the 31st day of De-
cember he had a shotgun on his
shoulder.

morning of Dec. 81 he had on a black
square cut coat, a black vest, a pair of
blue overalls, low overshoes and a
light cap with the flap turned town.
He hesitated sometime when asked
whether the overalls were dark or
light blue, but finally replied that they
We're dark blue.
Gertrude Jayelin testified that on
Dec. 81 she saw two men pass her
house, one was an old man who was
walking slow (answers to the descrip-
ton Of deceased) and that the other
was a tall straight man with a black
coat. who was walking terribly fast.
They We're about forty rods apart
when they passed her house They
We're both going in the same direction.
She had mentioned this fact to Peter
Ecklund when he was at her house on
that date, and her reason for remem-
berfng It was because that l thought
he travelled so terrible"
AT this point the defendant was
seen to smile as though he consider
ed it huge joke, while the witness
was almost in tears. She did not
want to testify. Peter Ecklund was
then called and corroborated Mrs.
Javelin's testimony He also stated
that he was driving a colt along the
highway that day, and that at about
IL o'clock he heard two reports of.

minute apart, maybe less. That the
reports scared his colt. That short
ly after that he passed near where
the deceased body was found and saw
in the road large spot of blood
There was snow on the ground and
some had soaked into 1t. He also
saw marks in the snow OF human feet
and place where something had been
dragged into the brush Or, as he
expressed it, he thought somebody had
killed deer out in the woods and
had dragged same to the road and
put Ii on a sled, the sled marks OF

the testimony Of John

Bank Failure-5ad Tanele.
Chicago, Aug. S.-Theodore stems
land, vice president of the Milwaukee
Avenue State bank was arrested late
yesterday afternoon on a charge of
violating the banking laws of Illinois
1t developed that the finances of the
institution are in deplorable condi-
tion and have been for several years
Besides the discovery of many irregu-
larities in the management of the bank
it was also found that even the safety
deposit boxes had been tampered with
and in some cases lrifled of their con-
tents
The specific charge on which Theo-
dore Stensland was arrested was that
of having accepted deposits at the
bank when he knew the institution to
be insolvent. The arrest was made
in the office of Chief Of Police Collins,
where Stensland had gone to confer
with the head of the police depart
ment
The warrant for the arrest was
sworn out by j. p. Straub, a liquor
dealer who declared that last Satur-
day he deposited $3.50 in the bank and
that Theodore Stensland as one of the
officers of the institution, had knowl-
edge then that the bank was insei-,
vent. Straub contends that the Nice
president should have notified the act
ing officers of the bank not to re-
ceive any deposits but alleges that this
had not been done and that his money
was taken in violation of the banking
laws.
Jacob j. Kern, a former states at
torney, signed bonds for $4,000 for the
release of Theodore StensIand

Montgomery county, who is supposed
to have led the mob which lynched the

which caused Governor Glenn to hurry
troops to Salisbury has not material
lied The surviving negroes, Henry
Lee, George Erwin, and two women,
are in Jail here and there is danger of
violence to them. The special term
of court which convened to try the
victims of the mob's vengeance, acting
under orders from the governor, will
not adjourn until every effort to con-
vict the leaders of the mob has been
exhausted.
Long before the sun rose curious
persons went to the scene of the
lynching and cut off the toes, fingers
and ears of the negroes who were
hanged to the limb of big tree.
