CASE.

Floyd Allen and his son
: Claude were electrocuted at
the State Penitentlary in
: Richmond this afternoon. Floyd
was the first to die at 1872
: and Claude followed him to
death five minutes later.
The death of the men came
: only after weeks of strenu-
Gus effort on the part of their
friends to save their lives.
Governor Mann had, put off
their executions several times
and had definitely refused to
commute their sentences, petit
ton after petition was pre-
sented to him, but the Cover
not could not be induced to
change his mind.
He left Richmond yaster7
day afternoon to fill an engage
ment in Trenton, N. J. No
sooner was he out of the state
than lawyers and friends of
the Aliens met in Richmond
and endeavorcd to have Lieut.
enant Governor Taylor Ellyson
commute the sentence of the
two men, who were to die at
day break this morning.
After an all night confer
ence the execution of the men
was postponed until a later
hour so that Attorney General
Williams could furnish Mr..
Ellyson with an opinion as to
his authority to act while the
Governor was out of the
State.
In the meanwhile Governor
Mann was advised of the pro-
ceedings in Richmond and left
Trenton at $3.50 this morning.
He was unable to get a sleeper
and rode in the day coach. He
reached Alexandria shortly
after T o'clock and sent the fol-
lowing message fror' +he union
station in this city:
"I am the Governor of Vir-
ginia and I am on Virginia
soil"
The Governor reached Rich
mond at 1880 and his arrival
put an end to all effort to save

against the Aliens, with "alleged per-
Jury" and further states that the
State of Virginia expended between
100000 and $4,000 with private detec-

down the fugitives; that the governor

the trials of the condemned men, and

these cases came up for trial, you
would have been obliged, in fairness to
yourself and to the defendants, 10 GER

has come to you almost as the voice
of one man, and we, believing that
great wrong will be done, not only to

people of this Commonwealth, by the
execution of thes men, make this
final appeal for the commission to IN

Governor Who Returns Home.

Richmond. Va, March 2S.-Gov.
Mann reached the city at II 30
from Philadelphia, having been ap-
prised of happenings here last night.
He got the news at 3 o'clock, donned
his clothing and caught the first train
for the South. His return was to
forestall and prevent sany execution
of the movement by the friends of the
Aliens to have the Lieutenant Gov
ernor act in his absence from the
State. Reaching Alexandria at S
o'clock this morning he sent a tele
gram to Colonel B. D. James, Sec
retary of the Commonwealth, say
ing: 81 am the Governor of Yir-
ginia, and | am on Virginia SOIL"

Lieutenant Governor, the hasty re-
turn of Governor Mann was practi-
cal declaration that the Aliens should
