AN IRRATIONAL STRIKE AND A MYS-
TERIOUS MOVE.
It has been intimated more than once
that Mr. Debs, the preposterous miis-
Jea:der of the railway employes recently
enga'ged in an Irrational strike, was
probably In tJhe Interest of some rival
eager to take the lucrative field held by
the Pullman company. It is now very
generally conceded that the Dabs boy-
cott was untimely and inexcusable. Th"
unfortunate men whom this professional
trouble-maker ha3 left Without employ-
ment now see clearly 'that they have
been duped and used In a most unmerci-
ful manner. Recently when the train
carrying Debs from Chicago 'to Terre
Haute halted at Danville a striker shook
hands with Deta, but then said to him,
"You ordered me out on strike and now
I have lost my job." Debs had the au-
dacity to declare that he did not order
the men to strike. The man happened
to know 'better and retorted not only
with words, but with a blow, which the
strike instigator managed to dodge. Had
not .bystanders interfered and enabled
Debs to escape from his assailant Debs
would have had to -take a dangerous
dose of the medicine he has 'been en-
deavoring to deal out to entire communi-
ties. As remarked by the Chicago Her-
ald, "the striker who assailed Debs ar-
gued on Debs' own 'logic. The striker
■had as much legal right to assault Debs
violently for costing him his employment
as Dabs had violently to assail railway
companies, whom he truthfully charged
with doing something or other which he
has never been able definitely to state."
This Is not the only unfortunate who
has had the scales to fall from his eyes.
Mr. Debs' denial of responsibility, his
-frantic effort to persuade the traveling
public to refuse to patronize the Pull-
man company, his failure to explain just
why the organization which he has de-
luded and destroyed should have plunged
Into the fight of others as it did, the
■utter absence of anything like a legiti-
mate motdve for what he did and what
he is now eager to deny—these things
coupled with his recen't return to his
home and his speech of self-justification
are mot all that go toward substantiating
the suspicion that Mr. Debs has been at
work especially In his own interest and
incidentally iin the interest of some rival
Bleeping car company. A highly corrob-
orative item of evidence in that direction
Is found in the following from the Chi-
cago Record, one of the most conserva-
tive and reliable journals in 'the country.
The Record says:
If negotiations now pending are carried
to a successful termination the striking; car
builders at Pullman will quilt the "model
town" in a Ibcdy and become the employes
of a powerful new corporation organized
for the manufacture of palace and freight
cars and day coaches. For more than a
■week secret communications 'naive been
passing 'between the agent of the corpora-
tion in Chicago and the strikers' central
committee. All of the offers to the men
are in writing, signed by a man of wealth
and prominence in the business circles of
the city. The names of a number o'f capi-
talists who are connected with the enter-
prise are also mentioned to give the com-
munications greater weight. Thus far the
deliberations of the central committee and
replies 'to advances made by the corpora-
tion have been kept wholly secret, but it
is known that every member is heartily In
favor of the change, if reasonable terms
can be agreed upon. As sooh as the nego-
tiations have reached a more definite basis
the matter will be laid before the body of
strikers for their action and approval.
"The corporation which is making these
offers means business," said a man who
has had a part in the negotiations, "and If
a definite arrangement can (be made all the
skilled mechanics at Puilman will be hired
in a body. They are thoroughly 'familiar
with the somewhat difficult task of making
cars, and they could go right at it without
a moment's delay, thus saving a new con-
cern thousands of dollars which it would
cost to get new men started." The names
cf those back of the offer to the strikers
will ibs made public within a week or two.
It is thought that the corporation conduct-
ing the negotiations is identical with the
one which filed articles with the Illinois
secretary of state early last week. It has
a capitalization <jf $5,000,000 and its 'works
will be located at St. Louis. Much of the
money back of the enterprise has been sub-
scribed by English and eastern capitalists.
Mr. Debs' desperate oertinacity In
hurling the -weight of his organization
against the Puilman company against
which that order had no grievance what-
ever is Irresistibly suggestive of some
mritlva or consideration that has not
been explained either to his dupes or to
the public. Ills union had no more rea-
son to boycott the Pullman company
than the unloni shoemakers otf Massa-
chusetts would have to do so. It would
bo just as reasonable tor the clgarmak-
ers of New York or the tailors of Phila-
delphia to boycott a New Orleans street
railway company because Its passengers
smoked non-union cigars or wore hand-
me-doiwn clothing as it was for the
American railway union to declare war
against and try to break down unoffend-
ing railroad companies because they
hauled cars made at Pullman. It was
not the American railway union's fight,
as members of this organization now see
onily too realizlngly. The contention was
between Mr. Pullman and his car car-
penters. Then wha't motive controlled
Mr. Debs and his lieutenants in their
desperate efforts to down Mr. Pullman?
Was It a consideration involving the
promotion of some great rival car manu-
facturing enterprise? Such a deal would
be directly In line with other circum-
stances of the case. The time will come
when even Mr. Debs' dupes will con-
clude that their leader and his confiden-
tial colleagues in business sold them out
and grabbed the only substantial bene-
fits, If there were such, resulting from
the disastrous dance of folly and mad-
ness into which he led them.
The politician has some newspaper men
whom he uses in his business, but he has
fewer dupes of this stripe to-day than he
ever owned before.
ANTI-MURDER LAW.
The French chamber of deputies was
far from unanimous in passing the anti-
anarchist bill. It passed by a reported
vote of only 280 to 230. There was some
wrong counting on M. Juarez' amend-
ment. Verification discovered a majori-
ty of six against tfhe amendment. Mr.
Juarez sough to preserve the freedom of
the press. It is not to be assumed that
the anarchists have gained any favor in
France for when 'the features of the bill
are4examined much of the opposition can
be accounted for by unwillingness to
risk the Innovations contained therein,
which can scarcely be reconciled with
constitutional liberty as generally un-
derstood. It seems as if the anarchists
were determined to force the people to
choose either their no-system of so-
called liberty—liberty to kill the minis-
ters of law and government—or to es-
tablish somewhat of an acknowledged
despotism as being the only method
ready and strong enough to cope with
the bomb-bearers' diabolism. It has been
felt for a considerable time past that
some authority must take the lead with
more vigorous measures. It was natural
enough that France should do so under
recent provocations. Other countries
may now profit by the example at least
to the extent of watching the opera-
tion of a law about as stringent as 1't
can well be made. Whether suppressing
reports of trials will accomplish the end
in view some will doubt on general prin-
ciples but more, it Ss thought, will agree
that such suppression will defeat one of
the great objects of the criminals of the
stripe referred to. On the other hand it
will not do to assume that suppression
of letters and papers of a given sort will
accomplish in reality what St seems to
do, for experience is very copious In Its
evidences of the flourishing of sup-
pressed publications. The French ex-
periment is one which will have to be
tried awhile before it can be known to
be as successful beneath as it probably
will be on the surface. It merits the ap-
probation of ail governments and their
earnest wishes that it may not transfer
the French jnarchistic miscreants to
other lands, which perhaps it will not
do. If they are not shams they should
stay and not run. After all Jaw is or
can be made equal to the protection of
every right only let the necessity be
fully understood. It is essentially just
that It should be made strong -and quick
enough for actual .needs.
Laboring people of all classes can never
effectively unite for either higher or lower
prices, because some of 'them are sellers
and others buyers; some producers of the
products which others consume. Under
such circumstances universal union would
necessarily result !n disappointment and
failure and would lead naturally to an
organized effort to secure from outsiders
the good things that the members with
antagonistic interests had sought in vain
to obtain from each other. This would lead
to the confiscation of the property or
money of others by exorbitant taxation or
by greedy and insatiable demands upon the
government. Of course this would be prac-
tical communism, which In due time always
consumes itself. It goes without saying that
the only way to avoid danger is to leave
competition free, to let supply and demand
do their legitimate and wholesome work
without restraint or hindrance. Here, and
here only, are justice and safety.
The czar's subjects call him exalted ruler
and then try to blow him to the skies.
An important order has been issued by
the war department informing officers
when troops of the United States may be
employed in domestic disturbances. It in-
structs commanding officers that troops
of the United States may be employed in
carrying out the provisions of the inter-
state commerce act, the acts concerning-
ithe Pacific railroads and in prohibiting,
preventing or removing obstructions of the
United States mails.
It comes over the wires that the social-
ists in Germany are 'boycotting the brew-
eries, but it reads like a joke.
The counts of the country are authorized
to investigate the differences between con-
tracting parties and to correct under the
law any injustice that may be discovered.
The commissioners sent out by the dema-
gogues in congress to look after such mat-
ters are an insult to the judiciary and' to
the common sense of the people.
Boycott not that ye be not boycotted
yourselves.
Senator George of Mississippi is still toil-
ing under the dangerous notion that men
are sent to congress expressly to raise
party thunder for the next campaign.
The republicans of Hopkins county at
their recent county convention adopted the
following:
Resolved, that we, the republicans of
Hopkins county and state of Texas, do not
look forward to the coming of a bloody
revolution as uredicted by the 'Hon. John
H. Reagan, and we hereby resolve that the
stars and stripes shall b • upheld wherever
they are raised by President Cleveland or
any other president elected by the people,
and any assertion, of our honored governor
tbftt tfhey would be resisted wan nn Insult
to the Texas boys who stood before him at
Austin and also an Insult to the patriotic
citizens ot Texas.
SNAP SHOTS.
Every good man has his enemies whether
he needs them or not.
The man with a great pull—the dentist.
Man stumbles over his own motives.
The old street car mule knows every belle
on his own line.
The fool might stop to think If he was
Just able to think to stop.
A love lick is merely a light tap, but It
sometimes kills an unfortunate who hap-
pens to see It.
The lie made out of whole cloth is al-
ways entirely too big to win.
Man can not put sand Into his own giz-
zard like the game rooster can.
STATE PRESS.
What the Papers Throughout the State Are
Talking About.
Uvalde Herald:
The Herald has always been a great
admirer of Governor Hogg; has upheld
ihiim When others tried to down Mm; has
prailsed when others blamed; has defended
When others heaped calumny upon his
naked head. But now, since his is pee oh
to the Texas volunteer guard, the .idol
of our heart has fallen and he's grovelling
In the dust. It is with a feeling of sadmws
•that the above !p written. Having consid-
ered him tiie champion defender of the
people's rights, the lofty, high souled pa-
triot, now 'he stands out as one who
would counsel a generous, loyal and confid-
ing people to meet at the state lines fed-
eral troops -ihould they be sent to Texas
to uphold the majesty of the lav,*. He
declares that in Ills estimation the state
comes first, 'the union .second; that should
the first red dirofft that 'have already fa-l-en
swell Into the deluge -of war, should revo-
lution rock In the balance the destiny
of the proudest republic the world has
ever seen, 'he would advise going back
to the constitution of 18.10 and let Texas
go it alone. To Governor Hogg the Herald
would s i-y: For Grod'-s sake go back to
your old school boy books, learn again
the old speech that we have all declaimed
with so much pnide, the language of one
who stands entlhipo-ned tin history au the
brightest, best, nobleuc, bravest and great-
est man of his age: "Liberty and union,
now and forever, one and Inseparable."
Alvin Sun:
J. T. 'Booth, who lives on Clear Creak six
miles east o! town, says that he has cot-
ton growing on his farm that will make
from one and a half to two bales to the
acre. Wo 'have reports from a number of
farmers who say their cotton will go from
one to c-ne and a half bales per acre, with-
out another drop of rain.
'Nacogdoches Star-News:
To enforce the law and do it right and
to act at the right time, give us Grover
Cleveland. He can be safely trusted....
Cleveland is a courageous man, and he is
doing his hone3t best i.n all his duties as
chief executive of the nation.
Willis Index:
And now the famous query as to who
struck Billy Patterson is undergoing a pe-
riod of innocuous desuetude, and the prop-
er question is; What did Governor Hogg
say when he said what he says he don't
think he said?
The iBrenlvam Evening News ratioci-
nates as follows:
In the alchemy of a -set opinion the op-
posing rocks of incontestable -fact change
to the pleasing fabric of sustaining argu-
ments.... It would seem from the talk of
tome philosophers that we must go down
into that black hole of shrieking nn-archy
that we may cc-me out into the light of a
perpetual day of order and beauty — When
we become entirely taken up with a man
or woman everything they say and do
seems -right—'they are our embodied princi-
ples and we argue from the standpoint of
their works, as from the base of supreme
excellency.
Jacksonville [Cherokee Co-unity] Banner:
Good crops in this section are now as-
sure!. A line corn crop is already made,
while the prospects' for cotton are excel-
lent, and the yield will probably be the
largest for years. The third party might
as well take to the woods.
The 'Nacogdoches Chronicle expresses a
prevailing opinion:
Let nobody suppose that because Debs
made a national nuisance of himself and
his strikers .wantonly Inflicted va,-;t in-
jury upon -the country, that anybody re-
gards Pullman In the light of a. martyr.
He is merely a selfish, hoggish millionaire
and a good deal of a humbug In tola pre-
tensions of philanthropy. Too many 'Pull-
mans would be hardly less calamitous than
too many Debs.
Corpus Christ! Caller:
Organized labor Is all right when It stays
out Cf politics. The success of the printers'
union is proof positive of this assertion —
The anarchists are opposed to Uncle Sam
maintaining a standing army and it is nat-
ural that they should be. lint what this
country needs -is a better standing army
than it now has.
The San Antonio Globe, colored man's
paper, says, no doubt, with reference to the
republican nomination:
The .colored man should have representa-
tion on the state ticket.
The Globe say3:
The utterances of that great churchman
and commoner, Archbishop Ireland of St.
Paul on the present labor troubles, are
most patriotic and have received 'from the
entire secular press unqualified approval.
Velasco Times:
Thomas T.I. Jack, one of the brightest
young lawyers of Galveston, in -company
with his cousin, W. .Jack Bryan, made the
Times a pleasant call this week. Mr. Jack
and G. 'M. Bryan, son -of 'Hon. Guy M.
Bryan, made the trip 'from Gaiveston to
Qulntana on their wheels one day last
weak, and barring a slight accident to the
wheel on which Mr. Jack was riding, had
quite a pleasant trip. .Mr. Bryan was some
distance ahead; when the tire was punc-
ture! and Mr. Jack had to walk about
nine miles and propel his .wheel by' hand
and arrived in Quintana one hour and fif-
teen minutes later than Mr. Bryan, but In
igood spirits and not much the worse for
wear.
The .Bellville Times says:
The Times is Indebted to Tax Assessor
Otto Wangemann for the totals of assess-
ment of property in Austin county for the

The Aransas Pass Beacon sheds light on
a -point of danger:
The ana-r-ehiists of this country are ithe
refuse of Europe, who left their native
countries for their countries' good. iDo not
associate with such haters of laiw and
order, nor train in the ranks of the party,
which courts their influence, for it is n-oit
to be trusted by a free people. The politi-
cian who would cater for the support of
the lawless .rabble who have Invaded this
once happy land will not d'o to trort. 'No
sane naitive American nor -honest natural-
ized citizen is or can be an anarchist.
The Austin Illuminator, colored man's
paper, stays:
Brer Pemberton of the Advocate is rather
too niadlical upon the teachers for not pick-
ing up hats and wraps and leaving the
banquet) given in their honor at GaiveSton
by chlvairic citizens. The truth Is, noth-
ing but shot and shell could have induced
them to leave the hall—they hail worked
hard a whole year, and the delicacies of
that occasion must be sampled with a
will 'before they would go anywhere.
The young Inebriate who said before go-
ing to sleep "Wake me when I am dry"
was asked -how the fact oouid be known
■and said: Ml'm always dry." As much
may be thought of 'the rain predictions
of the Clarkesviile Times:
You can always guess -when it's going
to -rain in north' Texas—it always rains
when It's needed.

Victoria Advocate:
In regard to the cotton crop in this coun-
ty we learn that a large per cent of boils
and squares have fallen, which will shorten
the yield and -that Cottw is opening very
rapidly. Pickers are in ;:ooj supply at 50

CAPTAIN RANDOLPH DEAD.
Dr. Holt Charged With Murder—How the
Fatal Encounter Occurred.
Baton Kouge, La., Jaly 31.—[Special.]—
Captain Randolph died at 4.30 this morn-
ing. Dr. Holt's wound is only slight. Cap-
tain Randolph was greatly beloved and his
loss is severely felt. There were no new
particulars.
The death of Parish Treasurer W. G.
Randolph, who was shot yesterday even-
ing 'by Dr. Kling Holt, parish physician,
has caused general regret. Both men were
prominent In social aad political circles
and the lamentable ouicome of the affair
is very much deplore!. Now that the
smoke of battle is over and the witnesses
have collected their thoughts the atory
of the tragedy can be ciearly told. Though
opposed to each other politically, the gen-
tlemen were good friends until a couple
of weeks ago, when they had a falling
out over some matter which can not be
learned with sufficient reliability to war-
rant a statement. The men were separ-
ated and peace wa-s restored at the time,
though thcue that krew them felt they
would cotne together the first opportunity.
Yesterday evening was the first time
they met face to face. Dr. Holt had
finished his dinner at he Grouchy restaur,
ant and was passing through the isaloon
to the street when he raet Randolph. The
old difficulty was renewed and both men
began shooting. Eight shots In all were
fired, Randolph receiving his fatal wound
in the left side of the abdomen, and Dr.
Holt a minor fietsh wound In the calf of
the right legv
In his ante-mortem statement Captain
Randolph declared that Dr. Holt fired first
and wounded him in the shoulder.
Captain Randolph was aged 50 years and
had been parish treasurer fiince 1S92.
Dr. Holt has been a leading -phyulcian for
a number of years. Both men have fam-
ilies.
Dr. Holt has been charged with murder.
FRENCH ANTI-ANA'R:CHIST LIAW.
The bill, which in spite of vehement so-
cialist and radical opposition, has now
passed the French chamber of deputies, is,
according to the Paris correspondent of
the London- Daily News, a. moat drastic
piece of social legislation. I't is so drastic
that a private 'letter -merely 'reflecting an-
archist views, opened at the postoffice, is
enough to send the writer to prison for
a period of three months or more. Offenses
under the bill will no longer be under the
cognizance of a jury, because with this
body there is always a risk of an acquit-
tal, but will be brought before the cor-
rectional tribunal. Persons convicted will
serve their terms of imprisonment in soli-
tary confinement, without, however, having
the privilege of reduced time, Which is
given to ordinary prisoners electing to go
to a Cellular prison.
(Section 2 of the b.ll enacts that any per-
son who, without becoming amenable to
existing legislation againr-t conspiracy, re-
bellion, etc., has committed an act of an-
archist propaganda shall be liable to a
sentence of imprisonment for from three
months to two years and a fine of from
100 to 2000 francs. The term- "anarchist
propaganda" i.s construed to mean either
the advocacy or 'the approbation after the
fact of murder, pillage, arson or theft,
whether uttered publicly or in private. This
includes private correspondence and t'he
distribution of anarchist literature, even
when not advocating -crime. Persons sen-
tenced to terms upward of a year's im-
prisonment may be sentenced at the dis-
cretion -of the .court to compulsory residence
for life in a penal colony, such as Cayenne.
The courts will be empowered, in any an-
archist case, to prohibit newspapers from
publishing -the whole or part of the trial,
under penalty of six days' to a month's
imprisonment and a fine of from 1000 to
10,000 francs.
This last portion of the new law is due
to the extraordinary impression produced
on the public mind by the miis-chlevous
•ability with wWch Emile Henry defended
his views on the dock. In commenting up-
on Henry's condemnation, M. Paul de Cas-
s.t.gna4 said: "The trial, by Its publicity
alone, will do mot's, evil than all the revo-
lutionary journals and all the anarchical
preaching could do -in several years."

WOUND ONILY THEMSELVES.
Brenham 'Evening Press.
The senseless, short-sighted and preju-
diced tirades which have been aimed at
The Galveston News by state papers for
the claimed inaocuracy of Hogg's speech
reported in The News, proves to us, if we
had never read the report, that The News
is right and the reiport correct. 'Hogg's
supporters have no respectable facts ion
their side, so, like disiputants since time

Hempstead News: The Galveston and
Houston people "have gone wlid over 'Mayor
Piy's action in quelling the disturbance
at the Santa Fe yards In Galveston during
the late strike, and want to run him in

a pity to spoil a good mayor by making a
governor out of iiim. Let us not rob Gal-

ORPHANS' HOME CASE.
Both Sides Close the Argument.
Judge Harris Has It Under
Advisement.
Mrs, Burchill Makes a Clean-Cut Statement,
Which Shows Weak Spots in the
Respondent's Testimony.
Fort Worth, Tex., July 31.—The taking
of testimony in the orphans' home case
was resumed to-day.
Mr. Salzberger testified: That he was a
barber and had without charge done the
work at the home and had noticed no evi-
dence of cruelty.
Mrs. Belle M. Burchill testified: "I know
Laura Harris; she was 4 years old when
she was taken to Mrs, Harris by a man
whose identity was never established; her
character is that of a highly estimable pure
girl; she was brought to the home by
Jonathan Leach, to whom for some reason
she had appealed; Mr. Leach and his wife
think a great deal of the girl, in fact they
are much interested in her and do all they
can to make life pleasant for her; they
often visit her at the home; a few weeks
since they asked that she be permitted to
spend Sunday with them; I gave my con-
sent to this and Mr. Leach called for' her
in his buggy; he is an elderly gentleman
with a white -beard, not less than 65 years
of age, I should say; he came for her
about 3 p. m. and returned her near dark
to the home; she Is ver'/ much devoted to
Mr. and Mrs. Leach.
"Hattie, Beulah and Daisy Davidson and
Mamie and Jessie Winters ran away from
the home early,one Sunday morning; they
were recovered at Arlington and returned
to the home that ni'gnt; the Davidson
girls 'were brought to me In January, 1890,
and the Winters gtrls in Ju'.y in the same
year; Hattie Dav.dson was a difilcult girl
to control, and I often requested her
mother to take -her out of the home, as her
ex-am-ple was anything but good before the
Inmates; Mr3. Davidson severely repri-
manded her; I told Hattie I was going to
punish her myself if she did not con-
form to the rules of the home; after she
ran away and was returned 1 told her I
was going to punish her; that 1 was go-
ing to tie her so that she couid be ad-
vertised as a tied girl ithe next time she
ran away; I used a very small brass chain
which I fastened about her ankle and to
the bedpost; it was the next morning that
I whipped her; I used a switch in doing
this; none of her clotlilnig was removed; I
did not punish her severely; I did not
chastise the two younger girls; Hattie
gave me much trouble at the -home; be-
fore she ran aiway she would meet the
man who subsequently became her hus-
band, under the trestlework near the home;
I often upbraided her for this; she de-
clared she loved Bob Hail and proposed to
marry him; I then sent ifor Ba.l; he came
to the home; 1 requested and almost plead-
ed with him to stay away from the home
until such time as she would be free to
receive his attentions; I told him my rea-
sons for asking this of him; he said that
I waa in the r.gh-t and said he would stay
aiway; he did hot keep his promise; the
clandestine meetings continued; Hattie
would slide cJown the awning post to meet
Hall; finally they eloped to the Indian ter-
ritory and were married. FinJing Mamie
Winters beyond control, 1 turned her over
to her mother; I told Hattie Davidson's
mother of all that had transpired and she
made no complaint.
"On one occasion Henry IHi-il knocked a
girl from a swung, hurting her eye badly.
For thi3 he was spanked with a piece of
shingle by Mr. M,cCa-rt. He told me he de-
served all he received; I know nothing of a
•boy toeing knocked off a gallery insensible;
I may have punished Amanda Lawdor
for neglect of work, but 1 know I never
knocked her over any ironing board or
otherwise -'harshly treated her; it was in
December, 1SX9. that the Foster children
were indentured to the home; they were
in the home before this, but not being In-
dentured I intended to 1st them go; tihtiir
mother then complied with the rules of the
home and they were continued; 1 heard of
liddile rbe.ng whipped and asked him about
it; he told me that he had not been pun-
ished severely and further that he deserved
all he received; we secured him a position
•w.th H. \V. Williams & Co. at iS per
month; the children's clothing Is changed
twice weekly, and all are bathed at leas't
once a week; the older oivl'ldren are
aroused at 5 a. -m., the younger ones at (i
a. m.; Mr. Burchlil ulso furnishes the
home amd wagon, for which no charge is
made; laat February Mr. Siemers kidnaped
his little son from the home; the boV was
brought into court and, on the witness
xt'and, Seimers swore that the boy had
been forced to drink the stuff from the
bottle; this was a revelation to us all; even
the boy dented it to Judge Green and so
did the other children there; the boy was
returned to the home by J-uuse Green; I
never heard of co,whides and biackanake
■wiiiiips being used at the tome until this
trial; if siuch were used there I did not and
do not l:now it; there is some cooking
done at the home on Sunday; I never
heard or knew of any scrubbing .being done
at the home on Sunday until this trial
'II do r ot remember Marie Slemers being
struck by any one; she wais chastised, but
moderately; I roever until thSs trial -heard
of a chi.'d b- tig 'struck wi-tlh a piece of

being chiaafee-J -about her Sunday school

on her -person; if -any marks were on her
-person at all they iwere put there 'for the
purpose of making evidence."
Relator here closed aind respondent intro-
duced addition ail testimony.
iR. I.. -H-aiil: "I married Hattie Davidson;
1 -never -met her under any trestOework
lalbout the home before X -married her; I
saw her at other points, however, about
the heme; I married her at 'Ardm-oire, I. T.;
a -month or -six weeks before I married her
I -saw black marks on her arm."
Cross-examined: "Mrs. Burchill did send
for me and gave me a talking; she told
me Hattie Davidson was not a proper
girl for me to marry; she said further that
I was not acting the gentleman in meeting
her clandestinely about the home; Mr.s.
Burchill's great god, Mrs. French, was
present; I call Mrs. French Mrs. Burchill's
great god because she was all powerful
with her."
Mrs. M. H. Bird: "I examined Eva Wil-
son at the orphans' home with Miss Fisher
and some girls of the home; there were
marks on her back and limbs resembling
pin pricks; I was shown the garments said
to have been worn by Eva <at the time and
they had blood upon them."
L. B. Newell: "I have been to the
orphans' home; I saw a child there once
with its face and mouth tied with a towel;
the -towel extended around the head both
ways; I saw froth or foam oozing from
under the rag about the mouth; the child
had difficulty In breathing; I was told the
punishment had been inflicted because the
boy had been halloaing to passers.
Cross-examined: "It was four years ago
that I witnessed this; I took my boy from
the home by force after the law refused to
give him to me."
Henry Hill: "I was In -the orphans home
three years; I got several whippings at
the home; a cowhide was used twice and
a barrel stave at another time; it was
a flour barrel stave; I was struck over the
back with it; I was hit on the hand w,ith
a barrel stave by Mr. McCart when he
whipped me; I was whipped for letting a
■girl fall from a swing; iMrs. Irench
whipped me with a cowhide; I never saw a
blacksnake whip at the home; 1 saw buggy
whips there; children were whipped with
them at times; Mrs. French did the whip-
ping tha.t I saw; Mrs. French would wh.p
with anything that she could get her hands
on; if Mrs. French ever knocked any one
insensible at the home I never knew it;
when I ieift the home I was taken to Mrs.
Burchill's residence and lived with her
eighteen months; she sent me to school;
X never told Mm; Burtfhill about my be-
ing whipped with a barrel stave, cowWIde
lor buggy whip; I deserved most of the
whipping I got ut the home."
Henry Hill, recalled, Corroborated other
(witnesses as to Mrs. French compelling
the boys to drink closet stale. Me said:
"She gavi* it to the tioys who dampened
or wet their bed clothing at night; I saw
her give George Nace, Joe Wixnn, George
Wlxon, Ed Wilson and lien Newell two
or t'hrfe d'osea each of It; I aieo, acting
under Mrs. French's Instructions, killed
her a rat; she made soup of it and also
made th<> boys drink it; she made the
boys drink rat soup where the closet stale
failed to stop them from dampening or
'Welting their beds at night; I knew Mrs.
French to keep boys locked up In the
closet two or three days and nights on
bread and water."
Both sides closed argument and Judge
Harris took the case under advisement.
FOREIGN NEWS NOTES.
KHS OF GOLD MISSING.
Paris, July 31.—The -police of France are
investigating what Is pMbalbly one of the
most remarkable thefts on record, and it Is
believed that the police authorities of the
United States will be asked, If they have
not already ibeen so requested, to take a
hand In the Investigation. In some unac-
countalb'.e manner a cask of gold from New
York, valued at $50,000 has been stolen while
in transit from Havre to Paris.
The French line steamship La Touraine,
Captain Santelll, left -New York on July
31 for Havre wit!) forty casks o.f American
gold on board, valued at $2,000,01)0, and con-
signed to various concerns. She arrived
here July 29. The forty casks of gold are
believed to have been saifely landed at
Havre, and they are also said to 'have
been placed complete on board the train
running between Havre and thl3 city. But
when the precious casks wore counted upon
arrival here there were only thirty-nine
of them. One cask containing $50,000 in
American gold had by some means disap-
peared.
The disappearance of the cask of gold
has given ris? to a number of police theo-
ries. the strongest being that the gold
was followed from New York by expert
thieves, who patiently awaited their
chance to abstract one of the casks.
The police, pending the termination of
their investigation, wiill not give any par-
ticulars concerning the roMbery, but it is
believed that several persons were con-
cerned in the theft, for the cask of gold
must have weighed nearly 200 pounds, and
a very .strong man could not have carried
such a load alone for any groat distance.
Among the theories being investigated
is one which may turn out to be correct.
It is that the thiaf or thieves hid himself
or themselves in the car In which the
gold was subsequently placed, and that
while on their way to Paris one cask of
gold was thrown out of the train and the
robber or robbers jumped after It.
T'he fact that only one cask of gold, was
stolen would seem to Indicate, according
to another theory, that only one person
was concerned in the abstraction of the
cask from the train. But the theories are
many and the facts made public are very
few.
Although it Is positively asserted that the
cask of precious metaii was stolen while
on Its way to this c.ty yesterday, there
are people who ask if a mistake may not
have been made in the counting of the
casks at Havre and whether the gold was
not abstracted on board the steamer La
Touraine.
To this the steamship company's officers
reply that it Is Impossible for thieves to
get at the gold on board ship, so closely
is it guarded, in addition to the fact that
the small hold in which it is sealed up
is situated in the most secure compartment
of the ship.
In any case a most remarkable robbery
has been committed, and the police of
France are busily engaged in an attempt
to solve the mystery of the disappearance
of the $50,000 cask of gold.
T'he consignees of the cask of gold are
Lazard Freres & Co. of Paris and New
York.
New York, July 31.—The report of the
robbery of the cask of gold shipped from
this -city by the French steamer La Tou-
raine has caused considerable excitement
amju-g gold shippers here. There were
three consignments of gold by the La Tou-
raine on her last trip. Two consignments
of twenty casks each, the value of which
was $2,000,000, were shipped by Lazard
Freres of this City and were consigned to
Lazard Freres of Paris. One additional
shipment of ten casks was made by Messrs.
Heidei'bachr Ikejheimer & Co. to the Credit
Lyonaise and was valued at $500,000.
No theory as to how the robbery was
committed Is believed by the agents of the
steamer. The specie, they say, is invaria-
bly placed in the strong room, which Is
re-oily an enormous safe situated on the
ma.n deck amidships and is considered ab-
solutely -burgiar proof.
As to the theory that It may have been
thrown from the train while en route from
Havre to Paris, -nothing can be said in the
absence of information -from the home
office.
Neither of the shippers have received
any ne,vs of the robbery. Lazard Freres
thought if the stolen cask of gold was
one of the forty shipped by them they
would certainly have received word from
the consignees, and therefore felt pretty
certain that it was not part of their ship-
ment. They couid express no opinion as
to how such a robbery could have been
committed.
It was said at the office of Heidelbach,
Ikelhelmer & Co. that in case the cask had
been taken from the steamer the shippers
vvou.d look to the steamship company for
reimbursement, but If taken from the raCl-
road, they presumed the latter would be
held responsible.

Canton, Miss., July 31.—'William and
Frank Scott, colored, wore hanged here to-
day at D.30 a. m., after receiving the last
rites of the Catholic church from Father
Montie. The brothers met death firmly.
They were pronounced dead in thirteen
minutes after the drop fell.
The crime for which they paid the ex-
treme penalty of the law was the murder
of Norman Hopson, who was a witness
agiainst them on a charge of burglary.
Last fall the body of Hopson was found
floating In a lake near Big BlackMver with
a heavy stone tied to lit. An investigation
resulted in the arrest of the Scotts, who,
when confronted with the testimony

In the first, degree and were sentenced to
be hanged. Their attorneys made an effort

crime, but the supreme court refused to
grant a supersedeas and the governor de-
clined to Interfere.
