Chakltos, AY. V., October 13. Since the murder of Rev. Thomas P. Ilyan near Bpencer, Roane county, this State, it has beea learned that an organized band of regulators of over 1,000 citizens, farmers an! others of Jackson, Koane, Kanawha, CJay and G liner counties, has existed for aix months. The organization was formed lor the purpose ol self protection against tbeergsnized bands of robbers and marderers who have run riot in certain localities cf Jackson, Koane and Kanawha c junties in which stores have been rebbed and inoffensive people made to suffer. It was about 11 o'clock Thursday right last when the door cf Kev. Kvan's mountain Louie waa crushed in after a shot had been fired through the froDt door. Kyan immediately sprung from his bed. grabbed his sho:iic, cocked both barrels, and exclaimed What is wanted?" The reply was from the inner door. "Old man, we want your money and mean to have it." A second ehct was tired and Kyan exclaimed "Mother" speaking to his wife "I am killed. I am &bot through the bowels.'' Thereupon one barrel of his shoteun was discharged, taking effect in the side of the room, supposed to have been cau3edby his fall. This caused a halt and the wife and a con tcck Kyan to an upstairs room, after which the murderers, rive In number, ransacked the lower part of the bouse, Retting nothlne, and overlooking mosey near at hand. Stroce circumstantial evidence pointed to Charles Coon, George Darf, Jr., Ulbert If. L'uff and Perry Drake, for whom warrants were issued. Drake was qu'etly arrested at his home. Constab'e Gibson and a posse of about sixty went to the residence of George Duß, Sr., in Kaintuck, Jack pod County, where George Duff, Jr., hLd Coon were quartered They had prejartd for an assault, expecting trouble tome time. Coon saw the posse moving epen the house, and cooiy notified two 1-in ties present to leave astoere was om? to te a show. Upon the approach cf the ofEsers Coon warned tfcem away and immediately opened f re with a pistol. The lire was returned r v tbe ollicf r.i and for a fdW minutes bullet flew thick and fas, from eacl party. Tfce outlaws took rffase In an up stairs com where Dnff was bronght down by a bot from aritl. The otlloers then surrounded the house and were aoout to st it on f re when old man Duff, a respectaMe farmer prevailed upon Coon to surrender, which he did as his ammunttion was about nausted. Kxbert M. Duff was arrested the tame day, last Friday at his home near that of bis father. On Saturday noon tbe prisoners were tafren to the scene of their crime, and a Justice st yesterday for their preliminary trial. Meanwhile George Duff, Jr., died at home Sunday night. The rest of the prisoners were taken to neighbors' houses w);re they were kept under guard until Sunday night, when about J masked rx en took Coon from the officers, and, with a rope around his neck, hurried him to a convenient tree. Ga his way he prayed and made a confession, which is to be received with doubt. The substance is tnat he was guilty of participating in the murder: that Bon and George Duff were aloog; tLat George Dull fired the fatal shot from his (Coon's) revolver. Some say he implicated Drake. Others say he did not speak of him. Whatever the confession was he waa immediately hung, dyiDg game. After the hanging of Coon, tue regulators went after Coo Duff and hurriedly took him toward the scene of Coon's execution. It is both alleged and denied that he confessed. Shots were fired at the mob t ither by guards or friends of Daff. Tae nob scattered instantly. In the early nrornixg Tuesday the body of Bjb lcß wa-i found in the public road with his threat cut and frightfal stabs in Lis chest, almost in sight of the body of Cjon -rVh was &'i'.l harging to th tree. Neither was touched until late Sunday evening when a coroner's jury assembled and adjourned without discovering anytfcirr. Coon, who had no friends near, was buried by a farmer. Relatives of Daf took charee of his remains and buried them near his home yesterday. Drake was spared "sud yesterday taten to the P.van residence for examination. A large crowd of armed men who were present determined upon lyr.cb.ini him. He waved examination and was ordered to the jail in Charleston. After much trouble and danger he ri ached here to-night under tie guard of Captain Burnett, of tbe I.crtka Detective agency, and a stronsr poste. No warrants have been issaed tor Cunningham who it is alleged is one of the .gang. As the investigation of the affir progress interesting results are certain. Olilcers are after others who are siid to be members of the outlaw band. C'.)0u came here from Tayler. Texas, and called LirLielf Jesse James.

Mr Bache Ciinard liaa C harte U. FranckI J" Arrested for St rati nc. New Yor.K, October 21. Charles G. Framkljn, who was locked up late last night in Ludlow street jail is still in custody, having been unable to procure the bail' of $000,000 required. The suit in which his arrest was made was brought by Sir Bache Cunard. The complaint alleges that on September -, 1S72, that he encaged Prancklyn as his agent, and entrusted to him the management of an estate consisting of about $ 1,000,000 worth of bonds and other eecurities. Octobers, 1SS.J, he gave him $100,000 more. In July lSSö.Sir Dache demanded the retnrn of his property and on September '25, Prancklyn gave him f :;23 Sir Bashe claims that Prancklyn is stillindebted to him to the amount of $::,oo0,oo0 the balance and accumulations of interest tlx. Whitelock, attorney for the plaintiß, swears that on October 0, lS-vJ, he gave the defendant as the business agent of the plaintilT$luO.KX) in cash, the plaintiff's portion of the personal estate of his brother, Edward Cunard. The plaintiff having need of a large sum of money, cabled the defendant early in 18G3 to sell eecurities and transmit the money. Defendant failed to comply with this request and Sir Bache Cunard came to this country in June and raade a demand in person for the return of his property. At that time the defendant admitted that be had converted to his own use securities to the amount of i'xKj.OOO, and was unable to deliver them to plaintiff. Defendant requested plaintiff not to proceed against him, saying that he would be able in time to repay the full amount. Keljing upon this and not wishing to disgrace Prancklyn. who was his cousin, Sir Bache trusted him further. The matter had been allowed to run along until now it is claimed Prancklyn is in arrears to the amount of $;,000,000. Mr. Stillman, of Mr. Pr.ncklyn's counsel.sbid the defense claimed tbat Sir Bache Cunard and Mr. Prancklyn were jointly interested in business enterprises in this country; that the latter had fall anthority from the former for all his acts, that were now complained of, and that Sir Bache was now trying to r. ake good his share of losses incurred by demanding that Mr. Francklyn thoald pay them. Mr. Pranckljn positively refuses to see anyone but his cour.-el. The affidavit upon which the arrest was made says tbat according to tbe expert's examination of the bookj of Prancklyn, there is found to be due Sir Bache, il,o:;') A2i, exclusive of interest which tbe defendant bas retained and converted to his own ue. And Criminal frocet-tlinga Too. Wa'HIM.ton, October l t. The Agricultural Convection met again in session this morning. A permanent organizition was eCected by the adoption of a constitution providing for and prescribing the duties of a Iresident, five Vice-presidents, a Secretary and Treasurer, and an Executive Committee. The name adopted was "The American Association of State Agricultural Colleges and Experiment Stations," to the annual conventions of which each college and station will be entitled to send one delegate. At the morning session Prof. W. ). Atwater, of the Wesleyan University, Middletown, Conn., read a paper on the subject of "Co-ordination of Work in -Agriculturcl Experimenting." The speaker di-casaed means for so systematizing work of the experiment stations as ccntemplated in the Hatch bill as to secure the least wate of energy and most successful results. The speaker said that while farms in connection with the stations would undoubtedly be of service, especially In the begining, jet the bulk of the best worfr, that which is most useful and serviceable to farmers, must be done in the laboratory and in the green house. He said that the farms of the most important stations in Europe, and especially In Germany, had bftn ultimately abandoned and the staticcs removed to the cities, and the work cor, tinned in connection with prominent universities, where their facilities were greatly increased.

AMER GREEN LYNCHED.

A Yulii Kcb Hug tie Abinctcr of Luella Kittitt Walnut Grove, Dtlpbi, the Scene of the Violence Tb Helles Victim Main tains ilia Iiincceiue, (Delphi Journal lixtra.) Yesterday morning a number of men from the eastern part of Carroll and Cass county, in the vicinity of Young America, came to Delphi, and all day they were on the streets, but no one suspected the motive of their visi'. About ten o'clock last night however they were joined by about one hundred and seventy-five others from the same locality and then their b usinets became known. They had come for Amer Green, and they got him. They quietly surrounded the jail and after placing a line in the middle of the street, about twenty of the bravest and most determined started for the jail. They made no demand on the sheriff before beginning operations, but sent a sledge hammer crashing through the wooden door leading into the residence part of the building, on the east side. Buching in with revolvers in thair hands and handkerchiefs over their faces, tbey demanded the keys to the doors leading to Amor Green's cell. This was refused by the sheriff, and Mrs. Van Gundy, who was next approached, was unable to comply with the demand, even if she had be?n so inclined. But tbe mob did not stand on ceremony. A man with a sledge hammer began his work, and one lock after another succumbed to his powerful blows. When tbe sledge was not snllicient, he aided it with a cold-chisel. The last lock, opened by an automatic arrangement, also unlocked the door of Amer's cell, so that when the mob reached the cell they had only to swing open the door and take their man. Green, who has always, ever since bis capture, ihowed the most defiant and nonchalant mien, had begun to weep and cry es soon as he found the mob was coming. When they reached his cell they found him in tears. In his desperation he had wrenched loose a section of the water pipe in his cell with which to defend himself. But four men made a bold and simultaneous rush for bim, grappling his hands and throat at the same time. He was bound and hurried out into a double-seated covered carriage held in waiting, and the whip was then applied to the horses. The carriage containing the prisoner went at a break-neck speed until it crossed the Deer Creek bridge end reached the top of the hill, when it was joined by about sixty other carriages, buggies, wagons and horseback riders and the procetsion moved toward "Walnut Grove, eight miles and a half south-east. A halt was called at Walnut Grove, where two large tires had been built, and which illumined the woods. IN THE FATAL GROVE. Those who gathered around the blazing fires in Walnut Grove will never forget the basty examination ot the doomed man, bis words, his actions, his cool and calm demeanor. He towered above his captors, a helpless victim. In a few minutes after tbe fatal spot was reached, after he had been placed near the fire and those in charge bad warmed their benumbed hand?, Green lifted his head and calmly said: "I hope you are not goiDg to burn m. You have come out here to murder me, and are going to do it, but do it like civilized men." Give him the stake," "burn him," "torture a confession out f him," "make him talk," and a score of other suggestions came from the crowd. In response to all these threatening exclamations the captive said not a word, but calmly looked over he crowd looked fate squarely in the face. In a few minutes tbe leader of the crowd called tor silence, and, stepping forward, facing Green, said: "Amer, you have not long to live. You are now in the hands of men who are determined. If you have anything to say, bow's the time to eay It. You are charged with murderins Lnella MahhitL Onl one thing can save your life. If you can ) produce her you can live, if not, you must die. Have you any explanation to make?" '"i es 1 have." 'Will you tell us all about it?" "What good will it do? You would not believe me. You have come out here to murder me, and it would not make any diL'erence what I might say." "You are mistaken. Satisfy us Luella Mabbitt is alive and yon can go free." "Is Mr. Mabbitt here?" asked Green. "Yes," came from the score of throats. "Let him step forward," said the leader of the mob. Tne old gray haired father of the missing girl moved to the front, and in the glare of the nickering light stcou. FACE TO FACE WITH AMER UEEF.X. "Well Amer, you must now tell the truth. You must tell me wha: you did with my dear girl. You took her away from her home and have kept her away. What did you do with her ?" "Would you believe me if I told you?" "If you satisfy this crowd they will let you go free. You must tell the'trnth, you must satisfy this crowd. When I saw joa in the Logansport jail and asked where Luella was you put me off and said yoa would tell me when the proper time came, that you would explain all. I have waited a long time. The proper time has come. Is Luella alive?" "Yes, she is alive." "Where is she?" "She is in Forth Worth, Texas." "Who is she with?" "She is with Btmnel Fane, an old friend of mine, and bas been there ever since she left home." "Why have jou not had her brought here before this?" "If I had consulted my own head Instead of my attorneys this would all have lj?en settled long ago. I would have been a free man," "Yon have known thatyonr life was in danger. You have known that a mob was likely to take you at any time. Why did you let your attorneys influence you? Why did you not produce my girl?" "Probably I was stubborn. 1 held out because of the way you and yonr friends bad treated my mother. This made me mad and then my attorneys told me that you chafed me with murdering the girl and advistd me to let you prove it. If I had CONSULTED MY OWN HEAD instead of my attorneys I would not be here." "Tell me about it." "Let him tell about it," came from the crowd. "Will you tell us about it?" said Mr. Mabbitt. "Yes, but it wont make any differeno. You bave come out here to murder me." "We want to atlsfied that you are telling the truth. Tell hov you took her away. Tell me all about It, Amer," said the father of the missing girl. "Well, Mr. Mabbitt, Luella went with me of her own free will. We planned it several days before. I LOVED HER better than my own life, and that is the reaton I went away with her. I loved her better than you did, and all the time she baa been away I have cared for her." "How do you account for the bloody dress found near Forest?" "I know nothing of any blood." "What about the drees?" "6he took the dress off she wore from home and exchanged it for one I gave br. She stood up in the buggy and made tbe change, and I got out of the buggy and held the horn while she did iL I had two new dressei made for her, and I can

brirejbe people who made the clothes." "What did you do with, the clotnes she took cfl?" "Bundled It up and threw it over the fence. If there was any hair or btcodon the clothing I knew nothing ol It." "Where did yon go then."' 'I took Luella to Franklort, and I then drove to Kokomo to get money to go away with. She took the train at Franktort and I went from Kokomo. We met at Indianapolis and went away together. She is now a'ive." "Il'a a lie. Choke the t.utb. out of him," came from the crowd. "I can't satisfy von. There is no uss talking to yoa. You have decided to murder me. The most absurd stories have been told, and now about that hair Üit wai found in my trunk in Tascoosa. It was silly to think that was the hair of Luella Mabbitt Buck Stanley told that and said it was her hair. It was not. I'd have ex plained this all at Fort Worth, if Buck Stanley would have permitted me. I sent for my attorney then, but Stanley hustled me away before he came to see me. I had no chance, or I'd have produced her there. Buck Stanley will tell yon that. I sent for an attorney. The way I was treated made me mad and this, with the advice of my attorney, made me hold out. I would have 1 r.GDfcEP LUELLA MAI BIT on the day of my trial." 'Yon have put It off too long." "Hang him." "Put him to the stake." "Make him tell the truth," came from the crowd. "Amer, weie you not drunk the night you and Luella went away?" "I was I ot." "Were you not in the habit of drinking ?" "I oc:asionally drank, and sometimes to excess, but I was not drunk that night." "When yr.n left those clothes near Forest, why did you go tbe branch and wash j our bands?" "I did not. I did not wash my hands." "Did yon not go to the bank of the stream and wash yonr hands in gravel and water?" "I did not." "Why does not Luella come hom? Dees she not know that you are in danger?" "She would come if I had time to Bend for her." "Why dia she not come back and relieve her distressed father and mother? ' "She was scared, and at the same time angry. She said she would not come back. She said she would starve or IIE IN THE TOOK HOUSE rather than come back. We had arranged o go away for a long time before we went. Once when we went to Kokomo she wanttd to run away, but I had no money and we could not go. The night we went, Luella had arranged for it; she had taken some of her clothing down to the barn and she got It when we went away." questions were now asked by the crowd at rsndom. "What did Walker know about the disarpfarance of the girl?"' "He knew nothing of it." "Didn't he know that you were going to Msbbitt's that night?" "Yes, but he didn't know of our ar raDgement to leave." "Yon were at Young America together?' ' Yes, and we left there together, hut Walker knew nothirg cf our plans. He is ioEocentof any connection with our disappearance." "Give him the rope. Give him the stake," came from the crowd. There was a short consultation among the leaders, when one of them said: "Shall we han; niM or nuns him?" "Hang him," "Burn Lim," was the retcnse, but the sentiment appeared in lavor of the rope. "All who are ia favor of the rope say,

aye. ' Tbere was a loud chorus of ayes, and quicker tban it takes to tell it a hemp rope was produced and a hangman's noose made and placed about the doomed man's neck. His arms were closely pinioned to his body. As this was completed the victim said : "After this is all over. Mr. Mabbitt; after I am gone do not forget me, do not "Do not worry, he will not forget you," shouted some one in the crowd, and Green said no more. Tbe order was then given to move to a small butternut tree a few feet away. A limb extended out and anorded A NATURAL fK AFFOLf. "Who will climb the tree?" was asked by a dozen members of the mob. A young man grabbed the end of the rope, and with the agility o' a squirrel, pulled himself up to the limb selected about twenty ieet from the ground. Quickly the rope was thrown over the limb and the end grasped by a score of hands. "A wagon," "A wagon," was called. A three-seated, red wagon, drawn by a bay and dun borEe was drawn under the tree and tbe fated man assisted In. He stood up on the seat, AS ERECT AS A STATUT, Lis hands pinioned and the rope eo tightly drawn that he was almost cboked. The crowd was as orderly as a sheriff's posse could have been had Amer Green been going to his death in accordance with the mandates of the law. No one wbo ever witnessed that sight can ever efface it from memory. A giant was in chains, had been tried, convicted and was about to be executed. The fire in the grove nickered and cast weird shadows on the ground, while the stars, so calm and beautiful, 'coked down fr jtu a cloudless sky. The fearful tragedy tbat was about to be enacted presented an awfal contrast with untere, for nature as at rest. Motionless, helplets in the hands of his captors, half stood, half huog Amer Green, who had been condemned to die. "Give him a chance to speak," came from tbe crowd, and the rope was slacked. "Are yoa an innocent man?" aed tbe Journal reporter, who had stood a mute spectator of the mob's dread work. "I am an innocent man." "What is your last request?" continued the newspaper man. "Tbat yoa inform my mother, send her my body, and tell ber X desire to be buried by the side of mv sister In Ohio." "At Hebron, Ohio?" "Yes, and " Here the horses gave a lurch forward and Amer Green was suspended between earth and sky. When the body fell tbe rope seemed to stretch four feet, and it looked as if the victim would touch the ground. The rope was st rone, however, and there was at least three feet between the soles of his boots and the gronnd. He never moved a mmcle after he fell. It was thought his neck was broken. As his body swung in space all was quiet, and in a few minutes the original crowd quietly dispersed. As we go to press the body is still hanging, and it will probably not be disturbed until the coroner takes charge ot it. Those who witnessed the execution and started home met scores of vehicles making for the grove. Thewordjhad gone out and the whole country is aroused. Thousan ds of people will visit the spot to-day. The Choice of Hamilton Democrats, NouLinviLLE, October 20. Special. On a general canvass of our city Democracy we find that the first choice on the National Democratic ticket for 1SSS is for Cleveland and Black. Tbe general opinion is that President Cleveland has made the best President we ever had, and that General Black is an old soldier and a soldiers' friend, and that he would among the Grand Aimy boys poll numbers of votes for tbe Democratic cause that could not be polled by any other man. So we will say: "Let Her Go Gallagher," and we will be ready for the affray. The only thing we need in our county is a live Democratic paper, one that will defend oar cause fearlessly.

HIP WIPE WAS TRUE.

But He Killed tbe 11 ire. I Girl'a Lover by Mistake. Special Disrtch to the Globe-Democrat. Millpale, Ky., October 14. A new-made grave in the little cemetery of this place to-day received all that waa mortal of Claudas K. Golden, a man whose life was made a wreck through a fatal mistake which preyed on his memory for more than a decade, drove him to drink, and finally to almost a pauper's grave. Fifteen years ago Clandas Golden, a young man whose Erospects were the brightest, returned to U home here from Norfolk, Va., where he had graduated in the law department of the university with tbe highest boners, Jle was wealthy and surrounded with all the t oniroris of life, and around him gathered the friends of his, early boyhood. Six months after his return from college he was wedded to Miss Cyrilla T. Henderson, a highly accomplished young lady of this town. She was just nineteen years of age, of fair complexion and light hair, tbe lovely daughter of Z. N. Henderson, a wealthy and aristocratic gentleman, who loved his daughter better tlan life. Golden and his beautiful bride settled down to pass their honeymoon. Nature smiled on them. The young husband rapidly built up a law practice and promised to shine at the bar of the state. But a change dark and forbidding came.' One morning, just before leaving town for two or three days, while passing through his wife's apartments, he picked up a piece of paper from the H jor. He carelessly glanced at it and fell back horror stricken. It was a note coached i loving words beginning -DjarC," arid endiDg "Lovingly, Felix." What did U mean, could his dear wife be false? His manhood rebelled at such a thought, but there waa the note found in tbe wife's bed-room. His jealousy was aonsed. He put the note in his pocket and keDt tbe secret. He ran over a list of hitfrieads in his mind and tried to think of a "Felix." At laEt it flashed on him. Felix Braim, a former sweetheart of Cyrila's, now a "dare-devil" young man who cared for nothing, who else could it be? The note made an appointment forthat night, and afcked that tbe way of egres9 bs left open. Claudas resolved to see for himself, and if his suspicions were correct he would wreak a terrible revenge. Bidding his wife goodby be started on his supposed trip. Instead of leaving, however, he loitered about town, and after dark stole quietly to his home. He watched the house, and was finally rewarded. He saw Felix Braim enter his yard, steal quietly to the back of tbe boose and raue a window. Then tbere was a Hash and a report. Felix Braim was a dead man, and Claudas Golden a murderer. Golden gave himself np. When the trial came he made no defense and said he wanted to die. The prosecution stated its case and sentence wa3 about to be passed.

AN EX-CONVICT'S LETTER. lie Addresses tbe Governor, Earnestly Thanking II im for Ilia Pardon. Governor Gray has received the following letter from Chauncey S. Barnes, who, after serving over sixteen yeara in the Michigan City prison, was pardoned by the Governor last week. The case of Barnes was rather out of the usual order and bordered on the romantic.

He then tried to kill himself. Those who are familiar with the case applaud the action of the Governor In releasing him and express the opinion that Barnes will give bim no cause tor regretting his action. The letter is es follows: Mattawan Mill, October lO.lST. To His Excellency. J. V. Gray.

Upon the arrival of the Mailory steamship Comal, from New York, yesterday, Capt. Jobn Bisk reported tbat a coal handler, John U. Graham, of New York, had died of overheat and cramps and was buried at sea. Nothing more was thought of the matter, and no thought of foul play existed at tbe custom house. It was, therefore, a great surprise when a coal handler named Kiley vmtfd tbe ollice ol the Lotted States Com rnlssioner and made affidavit charging William 11. McCullougb, chief engineer. with the murder of Graham. He swears tbat he was in tbe same watch with Gra ham, when four davs out from !ew York Graham complained of being sick. Shortly after this Cniet iogineer McCallougn found Graham ljing down, apparently sleeping, whereupon he remarked. "I'll wake yon np," and deliberately took a large shovel of red-hot coals and poured them over the prostrate form, also beating and abnsmer O ran am, writhing under the coals. Within fifteen minutes Graham was a con. Illley says the body was kept on ice until within twelve hours of Galveston, and then buried at sea. A warrant charging McCullougb with mur der on the high sea was issued, and he was arrested and committed to jail. Five witnesses were als arrested. Engineer McCullongh is about forty-tbree years old, and is a resident of New York City. The Green Brtliei- Trial, ic. LooAKsro et, October 20. Special. Judge Greenfield issued an order yesterday to f-beriö Stanley, who was already enroute with "Joe" Wise for Michigan City, to bring Amer Green on his return, and take him immediately to Delphi, and there place him in custody of the sheriff, after which Cass connty will have no further responsibility for the safe keeping of Green, the abductor and indicted murderer, of Miss Luella Mabbitt The trial of the prisoner will be called perhaps soon. The delay of turning over the prisoner Green to Carroll county immediately after nis capture, by deputy J. B. Stanley, of Cass county, was because Carrol county might contribute apart of the expense incurred in tbe capture of the notorious brothers "Bill" and Amer Green: ' "Bill"" Green' trial is set for Monday the 21th, at Peru for the murder of Brumbaugh at a picnic near Young America several years ago. A Strnnge Stdeide at Michigan City, Michigan City, October 19. The remains cf a refined appearing woman were seen floating in the harbor near the railroad bridge, by several workmen, who notified the coroner. It was found that a tbiee-y ear-old child was securely fastened to the woman by a shawl tied around the

body. The corpses were taken to an undertaking eetabiitbment and a closer examination made. About the time this discovery v made Jobn 8torms, a molder at the car facory, put in an appearance, and claimed tbe bodies aa those of his wife and child, who had been missing since the night before. From Storms it was learned that his wife with the young girl left home at dusk to go to a neiehbor's ostensibly, but events prove tbat Mrs. Storms went direct to the harbor, where, after removing her hat and shoes besides those of the child, and after tjingthe child to her person, ehe leaped into the water below. Temporary insanity is eaul to have been the cause of her deed.
