Keviewof the Case and Trial. Caishollto.v, Mo., April 3. The case of tho state against William and George Taylor, charged with the tnur der of Gus Meeks, was given to the jury last night at the conclusion of the arguments by the attorneys. After hearing the instructions the jury was informed that they would be excused from considering the cose until 7 'clock this morning. THE C1UMK. Early in the morning of May 11, 1894, little Nellie Meeks, covered with blood, made her way to the farmhouse of the Carter family, near Krowning, Linn county, and reported that her father, Gus Meeks, and mother, with two of their children, had been murdered the night before mil buried iu a near-by haystack. She said that two men had come to their house with a wagon and team to move the family, and on the road they had shot her father and mother to death and beat ouUthe brains of her little sister and baby brother with stones. They had also beat her into a semi-conscious condition and left her for dead, but she had revived anil got away. A search revealed the four dead bodies in the haystack as she described. The Taylor brothers, William P., a banker at Browning, and George E., a farmer, disappeared that day, and for weeks hundreds of citizens scoured the country for miles around in pursuit of them. Several months later they were captured in Arkansas, and when brought here a mob started to meet and lynch them. The orlicers in charge ltiried the mob and got their prisoners safely to St Joseph, where they wer Kept until brought here for trial. Aside from their tlight suspicion pointed to the Taylors because there were a number of criminal eases pending iu Linn and Sullivan counties against them. The charges against them are forgery, arson and larceny. Wm. IV Taylor, Gus Meeks, and others were jointly indicted and Meeks pleaded guilty and was sent to the penitentiary. He was pardoned by Gov. Stone, that he might be used as a witness against the Taylors.who were, in consequence, anxious to be rid of him, it was supposed. the statk's rnoor. The state proved that George Taylor had driven in a u agon from his farm to Urowning on the night of May in, ind joined William P. Taylor, his i brother, and that they were seen in ! the wagon on the road to Milan, 12 miles north of llrowning, and that they went to the house of Gus Meeks in Milan. There Gus Meeks and his family were already wrapped in their cloaks, ready to leave promptly between 11 and IU o'clock at night, and that they did ?o with the Taylors, despite the protestations of the aged mother of Meeks, who feared some harm would come to them. It was also shown by the mother that the Taylors had offered Meeks S300 to leave the state, but that her son demanded 81,000, they wanting him out of the way so he could not testify against them. Hill Taylor finally conscutcd to Gus' terms and wrote Meeks a letter the day of the murder, telling him to get ready to leave at 10 o'clock. Taylor on the stand admitted writing this letter. He, however, swore that he was to meet Gus at 10 a. m.. but the postmarks on the letter showed that it was not mailed until 2 p. m., proving that Bill was to meet Gus at 10 o'clock that night And Mrs. Martha Meeks' testimony was that the Taylors were at her son's house shortly after 10 o'clock. Next morning, May 11, 1894, little Nellie Meeks, covered with blood and itraw and dirt, walked up to the Carter farm and told the first news of the horrible murder of her father and mother and little sister and brother. A nephew of Mr. Carter went to the hays tuck described, which was on George Taylor's farm. He informed Taylor, who was at work in the field of the 'little girl's story, but instead of searching for the bodies he saddled a iior.se, rode to Urownlng and then he and his brother, Hill, took their Uight. When the boy saw George Taylor the latter was driving a harrow just where it would obliterate the wagon track running from the strawstack (where the dead bodies were found) to the barn lot on his own farm. And this ras the only track that entered George Taylor's barnyard, and It came from Ihn strawstack. It was also testified by two witnesses that blood staius were on the bed of Taylor's wagon, and on the running gear on the morning of the 11th, and that he was no earlv washing the ve

hicle. Next day the places where the blood stains had been were burned ami

charred. Jerrv South, who urrosteil th Tuv lorsat HutTaloCity, Ark., testified that they were going under assumed names . 1 , . . . . . ) . mure uiiu uiaue an aiieinpt to re.MM, he having to bring a shotgun to bear on mem. A strange feature of the state's case was that little Nellie Meeks was not placed on the staud. There has been no satisfactory explanation why she was not, and it is supposed that she was probably unable to identify th xuyiors as tue munterers. Hill Tnvlor testified that In wrtrkixi at the bank the night of the murder until 10 o'clock und then went home. He also said that George was in town thut day to see him, but left for home after talcing supper with him. George Claimed tnat lie went home direct from his brother's house andsuent the nirbt at home. Their wives corroborated their stories. Witnesses also elaimml to have seen William Taylor working in his bank at 10 o'clock that night. The father of the Taylors stated that the charred snots in the watron bod where it was alleged there had been oioou stains were the result of fire caused by the kettle while they were Killing nogs. The Taylors explained their flight alter tne crime by stating that thej knew that they had bitter encniiei who would try to fix the crime ot them, and that in the excitement which would be worked up they fearec mob violence. Nearly all the strong est evidence in their behalf was irivpr by relatives. They also produced wit nesses to show the bad refutation o: some of the state's witnesses. There was nothing marked ahnnl the proceedings yesterday. The crowc was. perhans. a little larcrer than nn al. I). M. Fields, who first spoke foi ine state, occupied his time with th state's view of the two wagon tracks in George Taylor's barn yard, and the wonderful coincidence of his harrou track so nearly covering those of the wagon. He spoke for about an hour. V. M. Conklinir. one of the inosi active of the nttornevs for the deffinsn spoke for nearly two hours, working upon tne sympathies of the jury in behalf of his clients, and dealintr"iarwlt with the personnel of the witnesses, assuring the jurv that, contrarv tn the statement of the state, it took nerve tc acquit rather than to conviet, and call ing attention to tne fact that eight oi the twelve jurymen had sworn to lmv. ing an opinion which they could lay aside to render a verdict according tc the 'evidence, and nnnealitiL'- to.thotr. that they- do it. Maj. Mullins followed for the stnt. characterizing this as "a case of remarkable character.uor was tln n irii one more startling in character oi more cruel in its nature that, ever tont place within the bounds of this coun try oi ours, it is not the outcome of Christian teachinc. but it coms nlnnn down the annals of time, an exhibition of barbarism, cruelty that will lingei in an tue History ot the past." The maior snoke for noarlv throe liour.-., the noon recess dividinir hit time. Ex-Conjrrcssman J. H. Hale made the closing speech for the defense, using about three hours summing up the evidence for the defense, and culling that for the state, throwing aside which he characterized us unnatnr.il and contrary to human nature, dis carding tnat oi impeached witnesses, and asking a verdict of acquittal on the grounds that the state's case had lost many links to complete the chain of circumstantial evidence necessary to convict, not failing to appeal for an acquittal on account of the wives of tne ueienuams ami their children. At the niirht session Prosecuting At torney Hrcsnehan closed the case for the state, coinir over the instructions for the state, explaining the duties of tne jury, ami appealing for justice, which the counties of Linn. Sullivan and Carroll and the state of Missouri demands at the hands of the jury. He touched principally on circumstantial evidence, its character and prevalence, showing that the murderer sought not the light of day, but the darkness of night, and well surrounded by none. He men impressed the jury that a verdict of cuiltv was not all there was in thi case, and that no more responsibility rested upon them for a verdict of this kind than on the grand jury in finding the indictment, or on the prosecuting attorney for drawing the papers. The instructions were then rrlvnn tn the jury, and Deputy Sheriff Cummings tooK the oath to take charge of them and allow no communication with them until they should he 'discharged. They were informed by the court that they were in the hands of the deputy sheriff, whereupon they retired. A NOBLE RESCUE Of the Crew of the lirltlsh Strip Arse In Mid-Ocean. Southami'tox, April The arrival of the Normania at this port yesterday morning supplied the details of the rescue of the llritish ship Arno in mid-ocean on March 24. The Arno, which sailed from New York March 21 for Liverpool, was sighted on March 24 with a heavy list and signalling for assistance. The Normania lowered a ifcbaat which was cansized in the liead sea, but no lives were lost. A second boat was lowered and wn successful in getting within llftv varus of the Arno, which was as near as it was safe to approach, owing to the tremendous sea. There were on board the Arno twenty-nine men and women and a baby. A life buoy line was got out and all on board were rescued, though it was a perilous undertaking. The rescue occupied eight hours, during which thcru was great excitement on board the Normania. The lifeboat was compelled to make four trips in order to get all of the shipwrecked ones on hoard the steamer. Tim passengers on board the Normania took up a collection of S500 for tho crew of the lifeboat

Hurt, who is also mayor of uisper, vu-diiesiluy evening shot and killed W illiam Milue. a sheeiiherder. who had been .Mr. Hurt's eiunluve for many years. Thu alYulr created it proloiuid sensation. Seuator Hurt is one of the largest sheen owners in the täte and is well known throughout the west. It is alleged that about a year ago Jturt s 10-year-olil son came home one evening unexpectedly and found Milne sitting on his mother's hip. Mr. Hurt was away from home at tho time, but the boy wrote his father of the occur re nee. Since the mayor's return from Hot springs, Arle, where he lias been seriously ill for some time, he has been stopping ut a hotel refusing to see his wue, aunoiigii he hau frequent inter views with the son. Meetinc Milne Wednesday evening he began shooting. He shot in all live times, and every shot took effect Milne was unarmed. People intimate with the family believe that Mrs. Hurt is entirely blameless and has been wrongfully accused. Senator Hurt was prominently mentioned as a caudidnt for governor on the democratic ticket lour years ago. lie is reputed to be one ot the wealthiest men tn Central yoming. THE VENEZUELAN QUESTION As Viewed by a Oentlenian Who IU Lived Many Years In South Amvrlra. Washington-, April f. "Venezuela." said a gentleman to-day, who has lived many years in Soutli America, "would rather be reduced to ashej than permit Great Itritain to occupy perma nently the country in dispute between her and llritish Guinea." This declara tion seems certainly to express the sentiment of the Venezuelan people with reference to this mooted question. What action Venezuela may ultimately take in the matter is not known, but it is doubtful if the Crespo administration is considering the probability of war with Great Hritain as a result of the latter's refusal to abandon this territory. 1 he Venezuelans believe that their interests will be protected bv the United States, ami they are hopeful that the dispute between themselves and Great Itritain may yet be referred to arbitration. They insist strenu ously that the territory belongs to thoni and that Great Britain has been encroaching upon it for years because of Venezuela's inability to prevent her. Great Hritain, on the other hand. ins long maintained that while she will arbitrate some of the points in dispute between tho two countries, she will not for a moment arbitrato her control of the country now held by ner, winch embraces about 40.000 miles in a tract ISO miles by thirty-five wide, stretching from the coast eastward and embracing a part of tho mouth of the Orinoco river. Then. is nothing new in the position taken by Great Hritain. In the correspondence between Mr. llayard and the Salisbury government as far back as 1S3S, when Mr. llay ard filled the office of secretary of state, Great Britain then asserted that this territory was as much a part of ler country as any of her colonial pos sessions and that she could not. for that reason, permit her right to oc cupy it to be arbitrated. More recently still the llritish representatives have claimed that their ownership of this land could be no more the subject of arbitration than Great Britain's right to Surrey or Essex or any other of the counties in England. JAPANESE FLAG OF TRUCE riretl Upon by the Chinese Soldier at Hal Chens. London, April 5. A dispatch to the Central News from Tokio says: Gen. Nodzu reports from Hal Cheng that on April 1 he sent a Chinese messenger to the Chinese military front notifying the commander of the armistice and requesting a meeting to arrange details. On April 3 he sent a Japanese messenger and a trumpeter requesting an answer from the Chinese com mander within twenty-four hours. On April 3, the messenger and trumpeter not having returned, Col. Aoki, fearing foul play, started him self with a white flag and a trumpeter toward the outposts. The Chinese outposts began firing, when Col. Aoki halted and signalled with his flag of truce. When he attempted to advance the Chinese renewed their firing, wounding the Japanese flag bearer, and Col. Aoki was compelled to return. Gen. Nodzu asks whether th3CI1ine.se envoy has informed the government at .'ckiu of the armistice. Quern Victoria at Nice. London, April 5. The latest official report in regard to the queen received from Nice last evening says: "The queen, accompanied by Princess lleatrice, drove to Leaulieu alonrr the mountain road leading to La llastide. She paid a visit to Lord and Lady Salisbury aid returned to Cimicz by the way of Villcfranche. In the evening her majesty entertained Sir Edward Malet and others at dinner.

IIiin.nksskv, Okla., April 5. Rock Island train No. 1, fast mail, tine hern at 11::U) p. 111., was held up and robbed Wednesday uight ut Dover, a smal station nine miles south of here. Thu train left on time, und proceeded a usual until it readied thu Dover tank where a stop is uhvays made for wa ter. While standing at the tank two masked men came out from between tho tank and the coal shed, where they had been concealed, and, covering tho engineer and fireman, commanded them to proceed down the track about twenty rods to where a small ravine erosses it. The engineer complied, but either could not or would not stop at the ex uct spot designated, pulling by it a few rods. He and his fireman were then commanded to come down from the engine, which they lost no time in doing. About this time the conductor came forward to see what was the cause of the unusual stop, but he had no sooner come in sight than he was greeted with the stern command: "Hands up!" lhe robbers then proceeded to unbur den him of his money, valuables, etc, and the porter, who put in his appear ance about the same time, was treated in a like manner, the robbers securing comparatively nothing, however, from him. Tho outlaws, with three or four more of their number who had put in their appearance as soon as the train slacked speed, together with the four train ineu now proceeded to the ex press car, where the order was given to "open up! " Messenger Jones was alone in his car, the guards who had accompanied mm since the Texas robbery havini: been recently taken off. He was plucky, however, and refused to open the door, then the robbers, evidently more witn the object of frightening him than with any murderous intent. began firing into the car. Fifteen or twenty shots were fired, one of which took effect in the fore arm of the brave messenger, making a paiuful though not dangerous wound. Ihey then ceased firing and de manded again that he open the door, but he still refused, in spite of his wound. They got the coal hammer from the engine and, putting it into the hands of the fireman, compelled him to batter down the door. The safe, which was tho object of their attack, was what is termed the through safe, and is a large affair, al most burglar-proof. They tried to compel Jones to open it for them, but he declared he did not have the com bination for thesafe, which was opened only at the end of the route. They then, assisted by the engineer and fireman, together with the porter. all of whom were compelled to take a hand, tried to drill a hole in which to insert a charge of dynamite. They succeeded in drilling a hole to a depth of half an inch after some little time and labor had been expended. They finally decidtul it was too slow work, however, and withdrew. In the meantime members of the gang had entered the coaches, and sev eral of the passengers were relieved of their valuables. The whole band now mounted their horses and rode rapidly westward toward the hills of the Cheyenne country. It is believed that their haul did not aggregate over $300. The train was detained about one hour, reaching Kingfisher, the next stop, 1:50 min utes late. Messenger Jones was left here, as he could not take his train through on account of his wound.

The door of the vault In the county treasurer's office here was plugged with nitroglycerine Wednesday night by robbers, who then attached a fuse. The floor was found covered with half a dozen horse blankets. The outer door and window had been forced, and a complete kit of tools was found near tho vault, which contained 817,000. Tho fuse appeared to have been lighted. The sheriff telegraphed for an expert to open the vault, being afraid that the nitro-glyccrinc would explode if tampered with. There Is no clew to the men who made such a careful attempt to blow up the vault, but it was the work of orofessionals. CONFESSED HIS QUILT. Arreit of a Trimtril Cle-rk Who Itobbeil Ilia Kmilojrn.
