CHOPPED VICTIM IN
HEAD WITH AN AXE
Slayer Placed Foot on Chest and
Hewed Fallen Man.
ED. SIBLEY UNDER ARREST
Killing of Ross Yongue, of Chester
County, One of Most Brutal
HOmicides on Record.

Chester Special to Charleston News
and Courier, Nov. "Details of one
OF the most cold-blooded homicides
in the memory of any living man in
rChester county were brought to light
early this morning, when Deputy
Sheriff S. w. w. Bindeman and ]. G.
Howse returned from the Slower
neighborhood with Ed Sibley, who is
charged with the killing of ]. Ross
Tongue with an axe Friday evening
about 1880 o'clock, near the home of
Sibley's son. After the affair DR.. c.
G. Crosby was summoned, and seeing
the frightful condition of Yongues
cuts hurried him to the Magdelene
Hospital. Everything possible was
done for him, but he passed away
last night about IL o'clock.
1t is said that Yongue had gone to
Great Falls Friday and secured some
whiskey, which he imbibed quite
freely. He returned and stopped at
the home Of his brother. Ned Yongue,
where he lived. 1t is thought that he
was on his way to ]. w. Banksheads s
store, little distance from Sibley's
house, when he met Sibley. The
quarrel, it is alleged, had it's inception
in an old feud between the deceased
and Sibley. The feud, it is claimed,
stared over a fight between the two
when Yongue got the better of Sib-
ley.
When not very far from Sibleys
house, II is said, that Yongue, being
intoxicated, fell to the ground, and
that Sibley grabbed up an axe, and,
placing his foot upon his chest, gave
him one severe cut with the sharp
edge OF the weapon in the head,
reaching his brain.
1t is stated that Yongue begged
pitifully to be permitted to get up.
but his requests were met by three
other blows, one across the left eye,
one across the right forehead and
the other across the righ cheek. All
OF the cuts were deep and ugly ones
and the hospital authorities here
were surprised that Yongue lived as
long as he did
When Deputies Bindeman and
Howse got to Sibley's home Mrs. Sib-
ley came to the door, and upon being
asked the whereabouts of her hus-
band stated that he was somewhere
in the fields Deputy Bindeman
noticed some tracks leading to a cot
ton house in the yard, which he fol-
lowed and discovered Sibley in the
house talking to some other men.
He made no effort to get away and
came on to the city with the deputy.
where he was placed in Jail. Sibley

preciative audience showed its en-
thusiasm by encoring her again and
again. The audience was especially
delighted with her rendering of "a
valentine" written especially for and
dedicated to her by Malcolm Nc
MILAN, and "The Lawn SWING" also
written for her by our director of
music, Carl Jean Tolman.
Another interesting number of the
program was the piano solo, eau

man a few days before school opened
this fall and dedicated by him to
Major James Lide Coker.
We regret very much that Miss
Miller will not be with us again next
spring. She was here last May and
is favorite with Coker College girls.
The crowded conditions of our old
dormitories were relieved last week
when about forty girls moved in to
the new dormitory, which is about
completed.

REVIVAL MEETING CLOSES
Rev. II. S. Truesdale breaches Last
Sermon Sunday Night.

Rev. r. S. Truesdale closed the
series of meetings he has been hold
ing in the First Methodist church
sunday night, preaching sermon of
much spirituality and power to n
packed audience composed of all the
congregations of the town. His sub
Iect was eleventh hour repentence
In the afternoon he addressed the
united Sunday schools of the town
Mr.. Truesdale is a profound think
er and an earnest, eloquent preacher
OF the Gospel. He made a deep i'm
preston upon our people. The chill
dren and young people who heard
him gave the closest attention and
they as we'll as the older people, feel
better for having had the GospeI
preached to them by this man of God
whom Lancaster county is proud TO
claim as native son.
An interesting service was held
last Friday morning at the Central
graded school when DR. Truesdale
conducted the chapel exercises and
spoke to the children. He is very
happy in his illustrations and i'm his
simple, direct and unaffected stvle
and we believe that lasting good will
result from his preaching in our
midst.
Mrs. Sara Shuler of Batesburg
sang at the series of meetings lust
closed and her sweet, appealing voice
added greatly to the enjoyment of
the services. All the music was
good, as usual, and the choir was
faithful in their attendance and their
interest in the success Of the meet
ing was very evident.

NOT TO RECOGNIZE
MEXICAN CONGRESS
Bryan Outlines to Foreign Dip
lots Every Step Taken.
ULTIMATE BREAK LIKELY.
Desire OF United States That Powers
Acquiesce in Its Policy-May
Raise Embargo.

Washington, Nov. 1O.-Deyelop-
ments in the Mexican situation here
today tended to emphasize a purpose
on the part of the Washington gov
ernment to refuse to recognize any of
the acts of the new Mexican Congress
and brought to light the fact that
serious consideration was being
given by p sident Wilson to the
question of permitting expectation of
arms to all factions in the Southern
republic.
Secretary Bryan had a long con-
ference with Senior Algara, Charge
d'Affaires of the Mexican embassy.
during which it is understood he said
the United States considered the
election of congressman equally as
invalid as the voting for President
and Vice President.
TALK WITH DIPLOMATS.
The secretary summoned the min
listers from five Central American
countries and outlined to them in
general what had been done by the
United States in it's diplomatic par
leys with the Huerta government.
Later he announced that he also had
been in communication with the din
lomatic representatives of the Euro
pean powers and had informed them
in general terms of the steps taken
by the United States thus far.
It was reported that some Of these
diplomats transmitted long dispatch
es TO their home governments today,
describing the situation as approach
ing closer to a complete break in re-
lations between the United States and
MpNlpO a
Mexican problem became trouble
some.
The state department made pub
lie Huerta's note to the diplomatic
corps in Mexico City at midnight last
Saturday the burden OF which was
that the presidential election would
be null and void, but that the newly
elected members of Congress soon
would be installed, that the national
legislature would soon resume the
Legislative powers which General
Huerta had seen tit to assume during
the interim between the arrest of the
deputies for sedition and the induc-
tion OF the new members of Congress.
AN OBVIOUS REPLY.
In view Of the fact that the note re-
cited in detail HueTta's ueTense of his
assumption of legislative authority
and his arrest of the deputies and
gave also his program for the future.
ii was taken by many diplomats as an
obvious reply to the American sug-
gestion that he eliminate himself.
The Mexican embassy here, which re-
ccived a copy of the note, declared
in an official statement that lit may
be assumed that the dispatches re-
ceiVed represent the attitude of Pres
ident Huerta and indicate the nature
of his reply to the inquiry of the gov
ernment of the United States regard
ing his purposes in view OF the re
cent presidential elections"
White House officials called atten-
tion to what seemed to them as an
Inconsistency i'm the Huerta note
wherein it assumed as valid the cleo
tion of Congress which were held
sim mdltaneously with the voting for
President and Vice President, to be
declared by Huerta null and void
