SNEED TO FACE ACCUSERS
Actual Trial on Charge of Murdering Captain
Boyce Will Begin Today.
Hjuslon Post Sfecitl.)
FORT WORTH. Texas February 4. All
Iesral technicalities having been swept
aside and a Jury of his peers bawins been
selected the sctuai trial of John Beau
Sxeed for ths murder of A. O. Boyce Br.
will begin at :30 o'clock Monday morn-
lnsx In the Seventeenth district court.
After a day part of which was spent In
reseat and a portion In consultation attor-
neys for both the accused and the State
ready for the great legal battle whloh
with the convening of court.
S. M. Cherry who Is a salesman for
tive Swift Packing oompany. will be ths
ria-srt Bute's witness and will tell In de-
tail of the shooting down of Captain
Boyce in ths lobby of the Metropolitan
hotel January 13 of Sneed's consequential
actions; of his (Cherry's) pursuit of the
stlayer and of Sneed's subsequent arrest
after Cherry had .told an officer that
"ha Just sbot a man."
About twenty-five more witnesses will
twa placed on the stand by the State In
direct testimony and It was said today
that the direct examination or witnesses
by the prosecution will probably con-
srurne Monday and Tuesday. All of tbe
eyewitnesses to the tragedy and those
who know of the actions of Captain Boyce
and Sneed prior to the firing of tbe
Kiots by the latter. Tbe defense it was
staid has about thirty witnesses who will
offer direct testimony. After they nave
tn examined tbe Stats will offer In re-
buttal and It Is expected that this will
consume another two days
WIU Testify.
Sneed In an probability will take the
id In his own defense and will tell bow
he fired ths shots that cost the aged
stockman bis life and why. Mrs. Sneed.
it Is reported will not testify and It la
poaelble that she may not even be pres-
cnt at the trial of her husband.
Aged Mrs. Boyce will be one of the chief
witnesses for the State and It la her evi-
dence upon which the prosecution depends
to a large extent to offset the plea of
Justifiable homicide upon which his at-
torneys are endeavoring to free Sneed.
Other Important State witnesses are to be
o tiier members of the Boyce family but It
Is not likely that any of them will reach
the witness chair before Tuesday.
Oontrary to expectation and announce-
rxietit Kneed did not spend the day In
Piano. He remained tn the city. In tbe
afternoon taking a "constitutional" and
in tbe morning conferring with his counsel-Henry
Will and ten Boyce were all
present at a conference of State counsel.
Mrs. Boyce sad Miss Hamilton spent the
day quietly at their hotel resting and
fortifying themselves against the ordeal
which they will be called upon to face
during the next two weeks. In tbe after-
noon all three of Mrs. Boyce's sons were
with her as were Mrs. Lsn Boyce and
Mrs. Henry Boyce and children.
Told Life of Boyce.
They talked over the Ufa of Captain
Boyce and each told of some incident
with which they liavs vivid recollection.
The conversation was a sad one for all
spoke In endearing terms of tbe man who
had been husband to one of them and
father father-in-law and grandfather ts
tbe others.
County Attorney Baskln said today
that ths State Is still undecided aa to
whether alienists will be placed on ths
stasl to controvert the evidence of spe-
cialists whom the defense will have tes-
tify. This evidence Is expected to sbow
the condition of tbs slayer's mind Imme-
diately before he fired the deadly shots
and at the time he obtained the letter
which Captain Boyce it alleged to have
written to Mrs. Sneed.

Psstof laPreaxratw. '
The Rev. Dr. Kotria Is prostrated
Ms home at alt West fifth street and
was confined to his bed all day Sunday
where he was Interviewed by Detective
Tom 8 now and A. B. Speight and Firs
Marshal Pentnger. Dr. Norrls told the
circumstances of the discovery of ths tire
in the rear of bis home and how he was
first apprised -of the destruction of tbs
church through a telephone message.
The minister said: "I am unwilling ts
attribute crimes to what you might call
personal enemies but beyond ail doubt
the fires were started by the some forces
that have bean operating for some time.
The first time we were willing to glvs the
community the benefit of ths doubt and
submitted to any theory rather than cast
any reflection oa the community but with
the subsequent and the attempt to take
my Ufa I am convince that the same
force or forces lit responsible for all four
happenings."
Dr. Norrls was m bed asleep when ha
was arousM by the crackling of flames.
He looked oat tbe back window and saw
a black column of smoke mixed with
lurid tongue of flame climbing the rear
porch. Hastily throwing on a bathrobe
he aroused Mrs Norrls and the two hur-
ried downstairs to the porch. Here they
found a huge pile of rags a laprobe and
piece of carpet placed In a corner of the
porch against the kitchen door fiercely
burning. Mrs. N orris at once telephoned
to the firs department while Dr. N'orris
threw bucket after bucket of water on
the blaxe until the Barnes were quenched.
The fire department In the meantime had
responded to the church fire believing
that both alarms were from the same
place.
Coal Oil Aided Blase.
An Investigation by tbe fire marshal
and detectives disclosed that the laprobe
ravs and carpet bad been saturated wltb
cotu oil and placed against tbe kitchen
door where they were ignited. Had tbe
kitchen door been opened the flames
ould have swept the house and de-
stroyed the two-story frame residence.
The framework about the door the
weatherboards and the door panel were
badly charred and but for the prompt
action of ths minister the house would
have been destroyed.
No traces were left by the Incendiary
and the detectives say that they are ab-
solutely at sea thus far. If a can was
used to convey the oil to the scene it has
been carried away or hidden.
The church fire was one of the worst
biases the department has had to con-
tend with In many months. When Chief
Bldeker and Assistant Chief Ferguson
who were among the first to reach the
scene arrived the heavy slate roof was
already crumbling and falling Into the
seething furnace beneath. 8uch a great
headway had already been gained by tie
flames that It was Impossible to deter-
mine exactlv In what portion of the edi-
fice the fire originated The t lire fire
brands hurled upward by the intense heat
swept over residences two blocks to the
windward and for a time endangered
surrounding property.
Estimates of the loss vary The value
of the building is estimated at about
165.000. A pipe organ w.iitl about 1J000.
and other fixtures swell the total loss
to near 18000. The dtrectoas carried In-
surance of between $25000 and 530000.'
Payments were recently secured for the
damage done in the fire of last month.

Powell a negro who sssanlted and
robbed a young white woman hero last
night was taken from offVers and
lynched by a mob early today.
The lynching took place in the yards
of the Georgia Southern and Florida rail-
road four miles from Macon where the
officers hoping to outwit the mob had
gone with their prisoner to take a train
for Atlanta. Powell waa tied to a tele-
graph pole and hundreds of bullets fired
Into Ills body.
The crime with which ths negro was
charged was committed about 11 o'clock
last night while the young woman was
on her way home from work In ths down-
town district. She was seized by Powell
dragged down an embankment and as-
saulted. Two policeman summoned by
two young men who had heard the young
woman's cries arrived on ths scene Just
as the negro made his way up the em-
bankment with his victim's purse in bis
hand.
Ths officers landed their man u Jail
but when news of the gathering of a mob
was received the negro was secretly taken
out of a back door with the Intention of
hurrying him to Atlanta for safe keeping.
The two officers guarding him had
stopped In the railroad yard waiting for
a train when they were found by the mob.
Today at noon a crowd of between SO
and 400 men gathered near an under-
taking establishment where ths body of
Powell bad been placed took the body
and put It in a wagon carried It to ths
heart of the negro section of the city and
burned IL Oil was poured over crossties
and the negro's body and his pyre wss
of no small dimensions. It was all dons
so quietly that the authorities knew noth-
ing of It until the torch was applied.
The coroner held an inquest The ver-
dict placed the blame oat "parties un-
known." Tonight ail was quiet and officers
stated no further trouble was feared.
