BISHOP DEATH MYSTERY
Finding Of Body Of Nora Springs
Youth at Roundup, Mont, to Be In
vsstisated by ReIatives-Was Young
Man Of Excellent Character.

Special to Times Republican.
Mason City. Nov S.-Not until John
Bishop. the father. reaches Roundup,
and has an opportunity to look into
affairs, will it be known how Lloyd
Bishop. his son. aged % years. came to
his death. About midnight. Sunday
night, John Bishop. a prominent farmer
of Portland township. received de-
layed message from Roundup. to the
effect that the body of his son had
been found hanging to a tree. 1t had
been hanging there for several days.
Lloyd left here year ago last June
and was living on a ranch about ten
married and he and another man We're
baching it, The report is there had
been some trouble between Lloyd and
the man he was living with. Some two
weeks ago John Bishop sent his son Il
draft for $3.50. 1t is thought that this
may throw some light on the question.
When Bishops body was found hanging
from the tree there was no money to
be found. 1t may BE that he was killed
or that he might have committed sui
eide before he received the money, but
if he had received the money. and it
is now nowhere to be found. it will be
pretty clear evidence that he was muir
dered and his money stolen.
Lloyd was clean, honest young man
with no bad habits 1t is claimed that
the section of country in which he
lived is pretty wild. Jay Bishop &C
companied his father from here and
another son. Ed. who is a resident of
Washington. will meet his father at

Cedar Rapids, Nov. eff sudden
cold spell hits this part OF the country.
Cedar Rapids Will experience coal
famine such as 1t has never gone thru
before, is the opinion OF men who are
familiar with the coal situation and
know something about car shortage.
The vital proposition is not how to
avoid a scarcity OF coal during the win
ter months: on the contrary. it is how
to avert a sudden coal famine at this
time Of the year when winter weather
is Just beginning.
Shortage Of Cars.
The paramount cause of possible
coal famine is again u shortage of rail-
way cars. 1t is said by good author
ity that at the present time the rail-
roads have enough business TO tax the
utmost capacity of their rolling stock.
and that when the demand for more
cars and more business arrives the
railroads will be in trouble to which
last wears car shortage can not be
compared. Everybody will scowl when
thinking of the car shortage last win

NAMED en- route for three or four
months. Several merchants received
winter goods so late in the season that
they could not use them. and so great
was their wrath that this year winter
goods were ordered months ahead OF
time.
Swamped by Crop Yield.
The big coal business. caused by the
ending Of the Illinois strike and the
prosperity Of the country do much TO
help the car shortage The principal
cause, however. is said to be the great
grain business. The farmers did not eX-
pect a record breaking crop this year.
and consequently kept much of last
years grain. bumper crop puts 1910

Doctors Met Mon tay.

The Lexington County n sea So
ciety held it's annual meeting Il: Mon.
day. The meeting was the brst and
most largely attended eyer held.
Several very interesting papers were
read. DR.. Ward, of Columbia read a
paper on hookworm, and DR.. Boyd, of
Columbia, read very instructive paper
on "Rural sanitation" Immediately
after the business session, banquet
was held in the Masonic hall. This
was one of the most brilliant and en-
joyable affairs of the kind ever held
in Lexington, and mary besides the
members of the fraternity enjoyed the
hospitality OF the doctors. At the
afternoon session the following officers
were chosen: DR.. R. E. Matthias,
president; DR.. F. G. Roberts. vice.
president; DR.. J. J. Wingard, secre-
tary and treasurer. 1t will be of in
interest to state that DR.. Wingard has
been repeatedly elected secretary for
seven consecutive years, which is but
an index to the high esteem in which
he is held by the members of the So
ciety.
DR.. Wingard was prime mover in
the organization and it is due largely
to his efforts that the society has de-
veloped into one of the most helpful
organizations in the county.
The dinner, which consisted of bar
becue meats, principally, with fruits,
ices and cake for desert, was prepared
by Mr.. Eli L. Corley, who sustained
his reputation as a successful culinary
artist.

about 2.3O o'clock Sunday morning
while riding with his friend, j. O..

section of the train which carried the
Hagenbeck- Wallace circus to Augusta.
The body was discovered lying beside
the track, between Gilbert and Sum-
mit. by Conductor Thrift in charge OF
Southern freight train No. 176 Sunday
morning about 1920 o'clock. There
was a bullet wound in the right eye.
Coroner B. D. Clark, held an inquest
later in the day at Gilbert. The YER
dict of the jury was that Paul A. VIII
liams came to his death by a gunshot
wound at the hands of parties un'
known.
J.C. Weekly was the only material
witness and he told a dramatic story
of the shooting of his friend by three
white men, and how he escaped by hid
ing under piece of canvas.
POCKETS SEARCHED.
The pockets of young Williams were
found turned wrong side out. In them
was a blood-svained one dollar bill
which his murderers failed to find.
His watch and about S., which Weekly
says Williams had when he left Co.
lumbia, ~ere missing. One OF his
shoes had been taken off.
The body of the murdered man was
carried to Columbia. His parents, for
merly lived in Columbia, but moved
to Athens, Ca, a few months ago.
Young Williams was to have been
married in December to Miss Marie
Weaver, of Charleston.
On Tuesday morning the young man
was buried in Columbia. Several
hundred persons, friends and acquaint-
ances of the family, were present and
the floral offerings we're numerous.
Among the most beautiful floral con-
tributions was the one sent by the fel.
lowclerks of Williams in the freight
office Mingling their grief with the
broker-hearted father and mother,
Mr.. and Mrs. F. J. Williams, were MIR.
aid Mrs. Z. j. Weaver of Charleston,
parents OF Miss Marie Weaver, the
fancee of young Williams. Miss
Weaver was rendered very i'll by the
news of the untimely end other sweet
heart and was unable to undergo the
trip to Columbia. Their wedding day
would have been announced before
the end OF tie year.
Sheriff P. r.. Corley, and his broth
er, c.. E. Corley, Doth of whom went
to Augusta on Sunday night as soon
as the crime was made known, ac-
complained by H. T. B. Boye, inspec-
tor of special service Southern Rail
way, Washington, D. c.; S. G. LaFar,'
special agent Southern Railway, Char
lesion; =. FL. Bullock, special agent
Southern Railway, Columbia; j. D.
Ehney, special officer Southern Rail-
way, Columbia, and E. J. Armes, ar
rived on the late train from Augusta
last night, bringing 10 prisoners, 3 OF
whom are white A number of these
are witnesses, some of them being eye
witnesses to the shooting, it is said.
Sheriff Corley, as well as the officers
give all the credit for the capture of
the men to Chief Elliott, of the Au-
gusta police. and his entire force.
It is likely that a preliminary will
be held at an early date, although no
announcement to this effect has yet
been made.
