T. L. Lewis, international president OF

that he has fixed ideas and that after

There are many who believe that the

forebodes a strike. lie will not sign

say they will not treat with Lewis and
his officers except as representatives Of

LANG HANGED;
LAST 70 DIE By
ROPE IN JERSEY
Slayer of Niece Had Been Sen
fenced Before Adoption of
Electrical Chair.

New Jersey had its last official hang
ing to-day when Frederick Lang, who
murdered his niece. Katie Gordon. was
swung from moose In the Jail at New
Brunswick at 94o A. NJ. Lang did not
collapse, as had been feared
Hangman James Van Hise, Of New
ark, and his son "of'iciated,' and
among the witnesses was Henry Cor
don, the father Of the murderer's VIC
tim.
Lang's last night was a sleepless one.
He tossed about on his cot, and once
during the early morning hours asked
for some whiskey, and drank it at
gulp. He had complained OF feeling cold
and the drink, he said, warmed him.
Two Catholic priests visited his cell
shortly after ! o'clock at his request,
and heard his last confession. They
were with him--all kneeling In prayer
when, q few minutes before 0 o'clock,
Warden Rogers and keeper visited the
cell and told Lang TO prepare himself, as
everything was ready"
"All right Warden said Lang.
The black cap, which the keeper held,
was placed on Lang's head but not
drawn down. The moose was also
placed around his neck and the pro-
cession moved to the scaffold. The
priests, Mons. O'Grady, OF st. Peters,
and Father Schnezecsy, of St. Stanis-
laus. walked on either side of the con-
demned man.
Lang made no statement except that
he would rather die than remain longer
in prison.
The trap was sprung at 9i2 and eight
minutes later the body was lowered suf-
ficlently to allow Dr. j. l., Suydam, the
county physician, and DR.. Charles Bur-
nett, of South River, to examine the
pulse. There was still a trace OF life
and the body was allowed TO remain
hanging until s's5, when 1t was taken
down.
The sheriff will attend to the burial.
The Gordon family refused to provide
for Interment.
Lang was twentysix years old. He
killed his niece at Binhamton, hamlet
near New Brunswick on April 70. 1906
He wanted TO marry her and she re-
fused his attentions.
on the day OF the murder he followed
Kate and her sister from their home
and shot her. He escaped, but soon re
turned OF his own volition to the scene
OF the crime. where the police picked
him up. Langs conviction was carried
to the United States Supreme Court but
was not reversed, He was sentenced
TO death three times, the last being on
Feb 20, 1909, by Supreme Court Justice
Bergen. He was hanged because the
crime was committed prior to the
change in the law providing for the in

understood that Edward H. Hartman
was no mere perfunctory director
Whatever he touched he controlled
either that or something broke. He
was not IA dummy. Nor could he
have controlled all these properties,
only fraction of which he could
have owned personally, unless his
business associates reposed the great
est confidence in his integrity and
ability. 1t was his power of organ
ization. of construction, his intimate
knowledge OF the whole country as it
related to railroading, his daring
methods and his success that won
him their allegiance. He became fan
and away the greatest railroad pow
er of his day and perhaps of any day
that the country has yet known.
There may be railroad kings IN fu-
ture that will control more mileage,
but none up to his own time.
His latest dream of making the
New York Central a part of his gi-
gantic system was coming to fruition
only when death snatched him away
from il. Even as it was, the greatest
of our railroads was listed as Har-
riman property, and its stocks moved
in sympathy with his group. To COM
bine that old and rich system with
his Pacific roads into one gigantic
whole was the work of a financial
titan. 1t was not thing that a small
man would even have dared to plan.

more intimate nature was on the eve
of accomplishment, but was never to

Great Constructive Genius.

The best two things about Mr..
Hartman were that he was construe-
tive and had a national view of
things. He was not alone a stock
manipulation, but a builder. History
must give him this credit. II is
questionable if We have had any
greater railroad builders than he.
The manner in which he took the
rundown and bankrupt Union Pa
cific went over the ground and saw
the business there was for the line.
coupled with the subsequent cour-
age and energy he displayed in pour
ing hundreds of millions into
Strengthening and improving the
road, showed constructive genius of
the first order. Ruthless he might
have been, vet the fact that he did
things. and big things at that. must
be told to his praise. The story of
bridging Great Salt lake and draining
the Salton sea is not one that could
be told of every man., not even of
every railroad king He touched
most of the properties that came un-
der his control only TO build them
up. OvercapitaliZe he probably did.
although he called it capitalizing the
future. Used Wall street methods,
some of them of doubtful kind
with this his enemies charged him.
And Hartman had enemies, bitter
and big ones, with Theodore Roose-
welt eX-president of the United
States, at their head. 1t is perfectly
true that in the world of men he had
more foes that hated him than friends
that loved him. Yet when this is
said we cannot forget those east side
boys in New York nor those shouting
children at Arden A man that loves
a child and is loved by it in return
cannot be all bad.
Harriman's national vision was
shown in manifold ways. Though
born near New York City and living
in or about ii all his life. he did not
have the New York viewpoint. He
saw America from the angle of the
Pacific coast and of the central west,
as well as of the east. He had enough
Imagination to forecast the future of
the country. to count on it as a most
important factor in all his business
enterprises. He could see the desir-
ability of buying steamship lines
across the Pacific. of planning a rail-
road in Mexico. Few men realized
the possibilities of the great empire
building on the shores of the Pacific
ocean with more clearness than Har-
riman. Though small in body and
even in brain he was not small in
his grasp of things. He thought in
terms of the continent, planned in
millions, built with systems.

Dog Mystery Is Solved.

A mystery" that for the last twelve
years had puzzled Mrs. E. Hope Sla-
ter. of Newport and Washington, and
which conferred at Hopedene, her
beautiful villa at Newport. has been
cleared up in the last few days. The
mystery was embodied in the disap
pearance of Mrs. Slater's valuable
dogs, one twelve years ago, another
six years later. The solution followed
the loss of third dog.
Mrs. Slater was walking about her
grounds twelve years ago with a fine
dachshund, a great pet, when the dog
disappeared as if he had been swal-
lowed up by the earth. Mrs. Slater
offered a large reward for her pets
return and advertised extensively in
the newspapers, but with no result
Six years ago a sister of Mrs. Slater
was playing on the lawn with another
dachshund. She CHANGED to turn her
head and in a trice the dog was gone.
Searching and advertising were of no
avail.
The man who looks after Hopedene
allowed a little bull terrier belonging
to Mrs. Slater to run out on the lawn
the other day. He, too, disappeared.
The caretaker was able to track the
dog to the side of the stable, where,
to his surprise, he found a small hole
in the side of the building, just large
enough for a dog to squeeze through.
He had the planks removed from the
stable floor and found that under
meath was a cistern. In the latter was

States Lawyers Ask for Death PEN
atty In Night Rider Cases.

Waverly, Tenn, May 12.-Judge
Cook today fired a bombsheu into the
night riders camp of Humphrey coun-
~. The court stated that he intended
to put a stop to the depredations if
he had to secure a regiment of sol
diers to patrol the district. He said
that if he had accepted the first YER
dict of the jury yesterday he would
have been compelled to impose the
sentence of death on all the defendants
on trial as there were no grades or
punishment under the Ku Klux act.
He was steadfast in the opinion that
he did not have any right to release
the defendants, but his present inten-
ton was to release all the men but
two upon their own recognizance, and
make them responsible for all law
1essness committed in the night rider
district.
The state lawyers today demanded
that the death penalty be inflicted up
on the IA defendants under trial.
