WOUND, HANG, SHOOT
 AND BURN NEGRO AS
 HE ADMITS CRIME
Mississippians Make Short Work of Assaulter- Take His Life on Spot Where Deed Committed
[Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

ELLISVILLE, Miss June 26.- Trailed for ten days through southern Mississippi by posses which included several hundred members of his own rase, John Hartfield, negro, confessed assailant of an Ellisville young woman, was captured, desperately wounded in canebrake this morning, rushed by automobile to the scene of his crime, hanged to d gum tree and burned to ashes. His victim identified him and witnessed his execution.
 Governor Bilbo, petitioned during the day to intervene, in a statement issued at Jackson, shortly before the lynching, declared himself utterly powerless and said that interference would only lead to the deaths of hundreds Of per- sons and that nobody can keep the in- evitable from happening"
 Lynching Is "Orderly"
 The lynching was conducted in a manner which the authorities charac- terized as orderly" Guarded by a committee of citizens of Ellisville, Hartfield was taken first to the office of Dr. A. J. Carter who, after eXamina- tion of gunshot wounds received when the fugitive made his fight against cap ture, declared the negro could not live more than A hours. In the meantime, a group of silent men were piling cross ties and brush in q depression in the ground near the railroad trestle. There was no shouting. Arrangements ap- parently had been made days ago.
 After Hartfield had been identified upon being brought here. There was quiet conferences. Members of the committee circulated in the crowd. Re ports that there would be a burning at o'clock gave way to statements that there would be a hanging at the big gum tree" Hartfield was told what the crowd intended doing with him. but only repeated, You have the right man."
 Admits Hi Guilt
 From the doctors office, Hartfield was taken to the street and faced the crowd. You have the right man." he reiterated Then a moose found its way around his neck and the trip to the big gum tree was started. the crowd still ominously silent.
 Under the big gum tree Hartfield 1 forcibly detained his victim all of the night of Sunday, June 15. It was under a limb of the same tree that Hartfieid was hanged as soon as the rope could be pulled up by hundreds of hands Then occurred the first demonstration { While the body was in it's death strug- gle, pistols were produced by men in the crowd and fired point blank at the swinging form. Before the rope had been cut by the bullets, burning 1aSots were thrown under the body and an hour later there was only a pile of ashes.
 No arrests were made after the lynching and tonight the little town was quiet. Most of the visitors from the surrounding country had left for ! their homes.
