 Edmondson Murder Mystery Cleared. MRS, CLEMENTS SAYS

Huntsville, Jan. 29--(Special) )--If 8 confession made at Woodland Mills. in Morgan County, today. by Mrs. Rob- ert Clements. Is true, the mysterious murder of the Edmondson family at that place swo months ago has been cleared. 9t
 Mrs. Clements says the Edmondson family was Killed by her husband Bob" Clements. who is in prison at valhermosa Springs tonight and will be taken to Decatur tomorrow morn ing.
 This news reached Huntsville to- night. It. was brought by reliable citizen who was in vaihermosa Springs today. vaihermosa Springs is four teen miles from Huntsville and across the river.
 Two months ago the residence and Darn pf Tom Edmondson. 6 prosperous farmer at Woodland Mills near Val hernosa Springs, was burned, and Edg mondson. his wife, his mother and ehree children perished In the flames. It was apparent that the houses had been set afire but the motive of the incendiary remained a mystery until today. Many persons who resided in that section believed that Edmondson fired the house. cremated his family and escaped.
 Clements was tenant on the farm i of Edmondson. Since the death of the Edmondson family he has been re- sarded with suspicion by his neigh bors.
 The man who brought the ,newA of the confession to Huntsville says Shat Clements today was arrested at ahe instance of one of his neighbors because of threats to do him bodily haem. Mrs. Clements, nearing that her husband was in prison, and believing that his arrest was due to the murder of the Edmondson family, was quick tc tell all she knew about 1t.
 According to the iriformatiou brought here, Mrs. Clements said that Edmondson went home and Ifound Clements ana Mrs Edmondson at the barn. A quarrel. ensued, during which the man and his wife were both killed. Clements then went to the house and killed the, mother of Edmondson and three children. On the following night. he returned to the place ;and burned the buildings in which the bodies had gemained all day.
 The story of the woman was con- Hrmed by the finding of. a portion of n pair of overalls worn By Edmondson, and shirt, soaked with bIodstains. These were found in a house vacated a short time ago by Clements and his wife.
 The confession of Mrs. Clements has created great sensation in that sec tion of Morgan County.

FEELING AGAINST NEGRO.
MOnrOevIlIe May He Scene of LyncA-
 lnR.

Selma, Jap. 9.-(special. )-Pas- sengers who arrived in Selma tonight on the Louisville and Nashville train from Pensacola and who have spent the past few days in Monroe County state that MonrOeville, the county seat of that county. Is likely to be the scene of a lynOhing within the next few days.
 Sentiment is strong, they say. for the lynching of a negro, Blue Mickey holds. who is an inmate of the county jail at Monroeville. He was the negro who is said to have caused the deadly duel between Fl. c. Walston and Ed mond English, near Beatrice late last Sunday afternoon, and who, it Is al- legged. killed English.
 These passengers stated that the sem timent in favor of lynchlng the negro was so great that it was reasonably certain that a mob would attempt to take him from the jail and lynchIng him if the three white men, Dr. Brad ford, Julius Parrish and O. B. Dea- son, who are being tried as accesso- ries to the killing of English and WaIston are exonerated.
 The trial of pr. Bradford, Parrish and Deason was resumed before Judge Slaughter at Monroeville this morn ing and the Case of the State and the

 AEORnIng--LawyeRs Are & Active,

Washington, D. C., Jan. 2s.-(Spe- eial,) )--The Senate judiciary committee being extremely busy with other mat ters there was no hearing today in the HundleY case.
 The Alabama lawyers fog and against Iconiirmation were, however, around the capitol pretty much all day. They will have a chance to be heard again tomorrow. The hour for the first meet ing having been fixed for 10 o'clock.
 Senator Knox. who is a member of the subcommittee to which this nom- ination was specially referred, has not vet been on hand to listen to any of the arguments that have been made this week. It is not yet known that he will be there tomorrow or at any sub sequent hearings if the matter is car ried over into next week.
 Mr. Knox is very busy winding up his affairs In the Senate. for, as Is well known. he Is to become the head of the Taft cabinet in March.
 The opponents of Hundley are still sangulne that they will be able to have him blocked and they are very well satisfied apparently with the situation. If is the general understanding here that the arguments they have present ed this week are much stronger and more convincing than those submitted by the champions of Hundley.
 The omnibus claims bills has at last passed the Senate. A complete list of the Alabama items In the bill was pub llshed by The Advertiser the day after the bill was taken up by the Senate. It will now go to conference and joubt- less the House members of the confer ence committee will hold out for time on account of the amendments added by the Senate but ultimately It is believed an agreement will be reached
 Last session the House managers threatened to hold up the bill if the Senate insisted upon increasing the ap- propriations. Alfred J. Stofer.

FOUR HELD AT MONROEVILLE White Men Said to Be Implicated. THE TRAGEDY AT BEATRICE Circumstances of English WalstOn
 Duel.
 ----e---- pr. Bradford, J. F. Parish, O. B. Dea- son and e Nssre Are suspset- ed--Preliminnry Trial
 Begins.
 

Monroeville. Jan. s.-(Special.) )--As aresu1t of the killing oA Edmond Eng fish and Henry walston near Beatrice sunday warrants were sworn out Mon day charging O. B. Deason. Julius F. Parish and pr. D. R. Bradford. white men, and Blue McReynoids. a negro. with murder. and they were all arrest ed and placed in JaiI here.
 The preliminary trial of Deacon was begun before the County Court We'd nesday afternoon and the trial Is stiil in progress
 pr. J. J Daley, who made an ex- animation of both bodies. testified that he found i've bullet wounds in the body of English all entering from different angles, the fatal wound being pro- duced by bullet of larger calibre than any of the others either in the body of English or walston.
 Walstons body was penetrated by four bullets. two in front and two in the rear.
 The defendants and three negroes were the only eye witnesses to the tragedy. The State contends that Wal ston knew Saturday that English would be on Walston's plantation Sun day for the purpose of moving some of walston's negroes and that there was a conspiracy on the part of Wal stop Deason. Parish and Bradford to kill English.
 Jesse Thompson. a negro, was the second witness called by the State. He testified that he was present when the dlfficulty occurred at Blue McReynolds house, and related in detail the contro- versy between the two men which led up to the shooting In which he de- clared Deason. Parish and Bradford. participated.
 Nose Horn and Alex Morton, negroes, testified to substantially the same cir cumstances as detailed by Thompson.
 pr. Bradford was the first witness called by the defense. So far as re- lates to the commencement of the dif- hculty his testimony varied but slight ly from that offered by the State, but from that point on there is a wide d. vergence.
 Dr. Bradford swore that instead of participating in the shooting, he and his companions were unarmed and dId what they could to prevent it; that af- ter the two men engaged in the difi- cutty and fired their \pistols, the ne- groes who accompanied English to the plantation drew their weapons and opened fire on the struggling men, af- rewards driving Bradford and his companions from the scene.
