HENJIY M. 1IOYT, Chairman
A. Wilson Nonius, (Secretary.
Among lmpersi submitted to Attor
ney General Devens by District At
torncy Howard, of Utah, ore the tin
published portions of Lee's confession.
They ore said to implicate Driglium
Young and other high members of
the Mormon Church in direct com
plicity villi the Mountain Meadows
massacre. Hitherto these ante-mor
tem statements have been made
known only to Devens and Marshal
Kelson, of Utah. The chief obstacle
to effecting a conviction upon Lee's
statement arises from the difficulty of
procuring witnesses, now widely
scattered.
It is otllcially announced that the
terms of the settlement of the suit
against l'eter 15. Sweeny for $7,000,00(1
are the payment to thecity by "weeny
of ? 100,(100. Mr. John J. Bradley,
Sweeny's brother-iu daw, and Mr.
J din McKean, of counsel by Sweeny,
called upon Mr. reckham in the
Drexel building and paid to him
$150,(100 in cash as the first in
stullment of this indemnity money
They are to pay $50,000 more in thirty
days, and $ai0,000 in five months.
Meantime they are to give as security
for these amounts notes signed and
endorsed so as to be negotiable in the
open market. Who the signers and
iiidorsers are to be lias not yet been
determined, Mr. Beckham says that
if all these details are complied with
and the money is paid the suits will
lie discontinued. If there is any fail
lire to do so they will lie reopened,
The Philadelphia A'orth Aim-rii-an,
referring to the National debt rcduc
tion says : "There in one shrewd idea
used by t lie advocates of permanent
debt that merits csmnient. It is that
if we had not spent so much money in
reducing the debt, we might have
enabled the government to foster the
industries of the county and every en-
terinise tending toward the general
advancement.' Have we not done
these very things to the utmost possi
ble extent, and could we have any use
for more railroads? Do we want more
manufactured while those we have
cannot lind adequate markets? Could
we conjure up something out of nolh
ing? Could specie payments induce
people to buy what they do not want
cannot pay for, and cannot use? No.
Stimulation of any kind simply
means u new inllation, and the end
must lie tliesuine in any case. If the
issue be put honestly before the public
the rcsut cannot lie doubtful."
Almost n Fatal Blunder.
From the JIcKenn Minor.
Considerable excitement was occa
tinned last week by the report that
Mrs. Lydia Boss, wife of John Boss,,
of Coudersport and daughter of W. J.
Colegrove, came near being fatally
poisoned through a blunder of a drug
clerk. There being so many varying
rumors and stories in circulation in
regard to the affair, wo deem it our
duty in justice to all parties and the
public to publish the bare facts of the
ease as given to us by Mr. Colegrove,
Last Thursday forenoon Dr. S. D.
Freeman gave Mr. Boss a prescrip
tion, which was filled by the young
man acting as prescription clerk as
V. T. Calle-'s drug store. The pre
scription called for sixty pills, eaeli
containing one grain of mix vomica.
One of the pin's was to be taken pre
vious to each meal. Mrs. Boss took
one of the pills (picking out one of the
smallest ones) just before sitting down
to dinner. Before finishing her meal
she complained of feeling strangely
und retired from the tablo to the sit
ting room. In a few minutes her
father went in to see licr and as toon
us he looked at her knew that tome-
thing unusual was the matter, lie
helped her upon tho sofa, when she
immediately began to show stupor
ami to suffer contraction of the
muscles of theneck and throat. Wiii'in
water was administered at once, lol
lowed with sweet oil, though with
difficulty on account of the setting of
tne jaws oi me rmuein. omiung
was thus produced and she began to
recover sensibilities. A messenger
was despatched for Dr. Freeman. lie
arrived ut about 5 P. M., and at once
discovered it a clear case of poisoning.
It was indeed a narrow escape for
Mrs. Boss, and bho has as yet not fully
recovered from the etiecis of the
poison. We understand that it is Mr.
Colcgrove's intention to have the pills
analyzed, and until this is done it can
not be fcettled upon whom the blunder
rests, although the clerk has been dis
charged by Mr. Callar.
We have thus stated the facts as
given to us wiih nopurposeof injuring
or casting any reflections upon any
one. It is one of those cases that fre
quently occur all over the country,
and is but another chapter of the lesson
that dealers in drugs cannot learn to
well.
A Llfo Sentence.
WnAT A FATtlRB WHO KXIRCISCD MB DRVlti
IN 1118 CHILD P.ECEIVKD.
Jefferson City, Mo., Juno 0. Tho S'l-
prcme Court bas affirmed tlio judgment of
the Circuit Court of Newton county in the
ense of Jesse W. Lynch, who is under sen
tence with a woman ho clnlms as his spirit
ual wife. Tlicy wore convicted of the mur
der of their child, threo years old, and
were sentenced, he to a term of six! v venrs
and she to thirty-lhree years. The nllirin
nnco covers his case alone. It is expected
that t lie woman s sentence will be light

of which ho claimed to bo tho founder, and
traveled around tho country In company
with this woman, to whom he claimed to be
married, at least aomrdirg to the rites of

the couple, accompanied by tho child,
stopped all night at the houso of one Cun

father declared it to be possessed of a devil,
nud in order to e o cise the foul fiend he
took his stand on one side of the room and
tho wife placing herself nt tho other Bide,
they pitched Ihc poor little one kackway and
forward to each other, during which per
formance the child fell repeatedly and
struck the floor, the bed and other obstacles.
Finally it struck a joist which crushed Its
skull and killed it. They were at once ar

strongly argued a verdict wng rendered
against them. The woman la of rather

HOW THG CARKliB OF A VICIOUS WIIAUF
HAT EXIlliU TUB STOI1Y CP HIS COW
AHDLY cr.IME COLIl-IILOODED HOMICIDE
Philadelphia, June 11. George W
Fletcher, the murderer of James Jianlcy
was hanged ut 10:18 o'cloek this morning
at .Moyuniensing prison. Fletcher was
born in the old district of Southwark about
the year 1S4, His victim James Eanley,
was a member of the Paid Fire Depart.
......... ci..iuuc-i ul i-ug.iic uuuse io j, ana
uolli were companions from boyhood, aud
about the same age. They were members
together of the old Marion Hose Company
of the oluntcer Fire Department. During
his boyhood Fletcher was known along the
wharves as a vicious, idle fellow, quarrel
some and unruly. Despite the most tender
parental care he became a "wharf rat
and before he was twenty-one years of age
he was a hnuger-on ot the Marion Hose
house. Ilia family nre known nnd res
pective ns good citizens, nnd one of hi
brothers is a local preacher of the Medio
dist Church. Had companions aud vicious
habits led the unfortunate man astray
an early ago, and nt last culminated in the
atrocious crime of which he was convicted
nnd answered for with h'13 life upon ihe
scaffold. The circumstances surrounding
the enmo arc of a peculiar nature. In the
latter part of 1S73 Fletcher, it was alleged,
committed a grievous assault upon a young
girl, Lizzie McCuen, who figured prom
inently in the trial. It was in consequence
or Fletcher having been charged with com
mitting an outrage upon this girl that, he
lost his position in the Fire Department
He charged llanley with having manufac.
tured the charge against him, and this i t
was that created the enmity. Lizzie Mc
Cuen, during the trial of Fletcher for mur
der, testified that the batter's charge
ugainst llanley of having instigated the
prosecution for rape had no foundation in
fa.it. Recently she found herself dying,
and (hen, it is saia, she made a confession
aamitting that Hauley had induced her to
swear that Fletcher hid committed an out
rageous assault udou her in order thai
Fletcher might be discharged from Ihe
Fire Department. Fletcher always attri
buted his arrest and the trouble that fol
lowed, part of which was his discharge
from the department, to information given
against him by Hanley. The two had
frequent disputes about the mailer, and it
was believed Chat it had been settled amica
bly between them on the afternoon pre
vious to ihe murder. On the evening of
November 3, 1S75, Fletcher went to the en.
giae-house and asked for Hunley, He was
told that llanley was iu the house, but that
ho had belter not have a meeting with him,
ns they were always quarreling. To this
Fletcher repined that the quarrel had been
settled. llanley shortly afterward came to
the front door of tho engine house, aud the
two men joined in a quiet couvcrsat ion.
during which Fletcher put his left aim
around Hunley s neck, aud, drawing the
pistol that ho had kept couceulediii his
other hand, placed it ugainst his victim's
breast, and fired, killing him almost in
stantly. Ho was arrested on the same day,
and admitted tho deed, declaring that he
had no f Hon da who cared for him, and that,,
he was ready to suffer the consequences of
liia crime. On the trial which followed the
jury brought in a verdict of murder in the
iirst degree, and he wan sentenced to be
hanged. Hi counsel labored hara to se
cure a commutation of bin sentence, both
before the State Supreme Court and the
Board of Pardons, but without avail. 1
Crimes of a Brutal Father.
Newport, It, I. June 0. John Clenry. a
blacksmith, residing on Bannister's wharf,
last night unmercifully whipped his Ron
George, nged 10 years, with a knotted
clothes line until the boy was cut and
bruiftrd all over. After committing this
brutal act he began upon Ins wife, who
was enceinte, beating her and then throw
ing her down stairs head first, lie then
took his other son, Thomas, aged 8 years,
and whipped him until he was black and
blue and hardly able to stand. Tho oldest
son was taken lo tho hospital, where he
lies unconscious. The rather was arrested
and lodged in jail, Clenry is a desperate
man nnd has always nbused his family.
There is no cause for his brutal treatment.
