WOMEN Pull ROPE
ON WHICH NEGRO
IS LYNCHEO
Confessed He Was Murderer of
Miss PeIley
MOB OF 10000 AT SCENE
Body Dragged Through Streets for
Mile and Burned Where Crime
Was Committed

Cairo, Ill., Nov. 12.-Will James,
the negro suspected of being the muir
derer of Miss Annie Policy, was
killed last night by mob. James
was strung up to the public arch.
The rope broke and at least 500 shots
were fired into his body. He made a
partial confession and implicated an
other negro, Arthur Alexander, for
whom the mob is now searching.
Women present we're the first to
pull the rope. When it broke, the
frenzy of the mob was uncomfortable
and they fired volley after volley in
to james body, shooting him to
pieces. The mob then dragged the
body over the streets for more than
mile, to Twenty-sixth and Elm
streets, and burned it where the MUIR
der was committed
At least 10000 persons witnessed
the lynching. James was found with
Sheriff Davis by crowd which over
powered the officers and took the
negro from them. Sheriff Davis had
been fleeing from the mob for twenty
four hours with the prisoner Driven
from town to town by menacing
crowds, he had taken to the woods
with James, but the persistent search
OF the avengers proved effective at
last
When found by the mob the negro
was handcuffed between two officers,
and all three were lying on bank of
a creek The three we're so weak
from hunger, exposure and the futile
attempt to elude the mob that they
were not able to make much resist
ance.
Sheriff Davis said that after taking
James from Cairo he had to leave
the train to elude a mob that was
waiting for him at town ahead. The
news had spread over the country
and every one knowing the crime
that the negro committed, refused to
give assistance in eluding the pur-
suers. They even refused food in
many cases. After a long, exhaust
ing, foodless walk, the sheriff and
his deputy had lain down with the
prisoner to rest shortly before they
were found by the mob
Miss Pelley was an orphan, twenty
two years old, and was employed as
salesgirl. Monday evening she left
the store for her home as usual. 1t
is believed that the man thrust a
gag into her mouth and carried her
back half block to the alley Marks
on the ground show that she was
dragged seventy-five feet to the spot
where she was strangled to death.
Her fearfully bruised and lacerated
throat and face show that she fought
desperately.
Miss Pelley's clothing was almost
completely torn from her body. Be
side her was her hat and broken UNI
brella. Her hand bag was gone.

AL!Bl CLAIMED IN
MURDER TRIALOF
ROBERT EDDY
Attorney Asks for AquittaI on
insufficient Evidence
THE MOTION is 0yERRULED
Witnesses for Defence Testify That
Murdered Woman's Sisters
Died of Paralysis

Rutland, Nov. 12.-The story of the
defense in which he will attempt to
prove an alibi, was heard in the trial
in Rutland county court yesterday af-
ternoon of Robert Eddy for the muir
der of Mary Jane Johnson of Walling
ford October 9. The state rested it's
case at II o'clock and Attorney Frank
l.. Fish Immediately moved that the
court order a verdict for acquittal of
the respondent on the ground that the
prosecution had not proven in its evil
dence that there was any question to
go to the jury as to the guilt or in
nocence of the respondent. He be-
lieved that the testimony relative to
the bottle and paper bag which had
contained lunch, found near the John
son house and the evidence that Eddy
was seen near the house on the night
of October 9 were insufficient to con-
Wet him. The court overruled the
motion.
The defence in the afternoon pro-
duced two witnesses. First Selectman
H. j. Fales and Constable Robert Hop
kins of Wallingford. who, although
they had been on guard at the John
son house the day of the murder, had
not seen on the woodpile the lunch
bag found there a week later on
which the state laid so much stress.
Edward Toohey, a machinist testified
that he made a night test and while
| standing on a bridge he could not re-
| cognize men under an electric light
where one of the prosecutions wit
nesses testified to seeing Eddy while
standing on the same BRIDGE Two
other witnesses testified to being with
Robert Eddy up to l0:30 o'clock on
the night Of October 8. He left them
to go home. clerk for a West Rut-
land liquor store. where Eddy is sup
| posed 10 have bought his alcohol Dc
! tober 8, testified that there was an
! Inscription on the bottle found at
Wallingford not found on bottles sold
| by his store.
The defence, scored a point when
they drew out from Mrs. Lillian Smith
one of the states witnesses, on cross
examination, that all of Miss John
sons sisters and brothers died of par
alysis.
In support of the contention that
felonious assault was the purpose of
the murder Attorney General J. G.
Sargent this morning introduced a
board from the floor where the wom-
an lay which had contained certain
stains.

HOOSICK MAN WHO
DISAPPEARED IS
LEGALLY DEAD
Settling Estate Of 20. A. Nose
ley Recalls Mystery
WENT TO FAR WEST IN 1886
Has Never Since Been Heard From
and Court Orders His Estate of
$685. Distributed

Troy, Nov. k.-The judicial settle
ment of the estate of John Quincy
Adams Moseley and that of his faith
er, Stillman |. Moseley, in surrogate's
court yesterday recalls a mysterious
disappearance which caused much
gossip in the town of Hoosick more
than twenty years ago. The Nose
ley's, father and son, were among the
most prominent and respected in the
town of Hoosick They were heavy
investors in mortgages. especially in
western farm mortgages which were
plentifully on the market a score of
years ago.
The son, for the avowed purpose of
investigating some of his investments
and some of his fathers, started for
the far west in 1886, and, from the
day be left his home in Eagle Bridge
to the present he has not been seen
by relatives or friends and has never
been heard from. He was a anan of
very steady and upright life and not
at all likely TO have fallen into
trouble through carelessness. He was
unmarried and about 35 years of age.
1t is believed that he was the victim
either of accident or foul play, the lat
ter being regarded as the most prob
able, for, if he had met with an ac-
cident of fatal nature or died of i'll.
ness in a regular way, ii is said his
identity would have been established
and his relatives communicated with
through papers he carried. He had
considerable money when he started
west.
Nothing being heard from him or
about, him in ten years. mis- brother
Charles l. Moseley. applied for let
ters of administration on the estate
In 1897, and they were granted, the
surrogate's court then declaring the
missing man iudicially dead The es
tate he left was valued at SS5,9S9
and that has been distributed among
those entitled TO II, with the excep
ton of s1,l57.63, a balance to be dis
tributed under an order OF settlement
made yesterday.
The son, Charles l.. Moseley was
also administrator of the estate OF
his father, Stillman l. Moseley, who
died in 1897 leaving an estate valued
at s73.560 This has been distribute
ed with the exception of SlS62.59,
which like the balance OF the estate
OF the mysteriously lost man is to be
divided among heirs by an order OF
the court made yesterday.

WHITE MURDERER, TOO
After Killing Negro, Mob Lynehes a
Wife SLAYER

Carlo, H., Nov. 12.-Henry Salzner,
white. photographer, who killed his
wife last July with an AK, was taken
from Jail at 11:40 o'clock by the mob
and hanged to a telegraph pole and
his body riddled with bullets. This
lynching followed closely on the
lynching OF viii James, a negro, who
earlier in the evening had been hang
ed for the murder of Miss Annie
Pelley.
The mob gave Salzner a chance to
confess after the rope was around
his neck, but he was so frightened
that he could only humble that his
sisters had killed his wife. The mob
became furious at this, and it was
hard work to keep them off Salzner
long enough to give him chance to
pray. The mob finally subsidized, and
short religious service was held, af-
ter which he was strung up, the rope
being placed over a telegraph pole.
Eleven companies of the National
Guard have been ordered to Cairo by
Gov. Deneen.

ACCIDENT AT DORSET
Particulars of Serious Injury to Eli
jah Soule of Manchester

The accident which occurred at the
new church building yesterday was
one of the shocking, enigmatical oc-
currences that sometimes disturb the
even tenor of so peaceful town as
Dorset.
Elijah Souie of Manchester, most
capable and experienced employee of
the Norcross-West company, was at
the top of a derrick arranging some
guy lines. To secure himself from
falling while thus occupied he had
dashed himself to the mast Without
warning the big beam toppled and
FELL the new wall of the church lay
in it's way, and 1t struck that, rebound,
ing with terrible force, then dropping
again still carrying the unfortunate
victim.
Everything possible was done to al
leviate his sufferings and he was la
ken to his home in Manchester by
auto. He lies in a very critical con-
dition, an arm broken and hand
crushed, and a leg broken and crush
ed so badly that il is reported ampu-
tation at the hip will be necessary If
he survives Mr.. Soule and wife and
little son have resided at Manchester
Depot, being employed at the marble
mill. having been sent to Dorset on
the church job owing to lack of help
here.
The entire community deeply SYM
pathize with this family in their APP
