AN INNOCENT MAN AND WOMAN CKUKIAY
TOHTUHEI1 IN KANSAS.
A despatch to tho Kansas City
Times from Kltlortulo, Kan,, says tint
tho (Mails of tho mob trial under
lynch law ol Atonzo Kl wards and his
wifo Mary at Hosalia, Kan., aro of tho
most revolting character and reveal a
story of inhuman treatment seldom
mot with oven in tho administration
of border justice.
Mr. and Mrs. Edwards and Henry
Bloomer and wifo wcro engaged at
farm-hands on tho farm of Goorgo
Dudley, ten miles lrom Hosalia. On
Tuesday Mrs. Edwards was left, in
charge of the house, whllo tlv) farm
hands wcro sent to tho field1, to work.
To her was intnutsd tho ear of thu
threo-year-old child of Mr. and Mrs.
Bloomer. Whon tho party returned
to tho houso for supper in tho ovoning
tho child was missing. Search was in
stituted and no traco of tho child
could bo found. Tho nearest neigh
bors wcro summoned to loin in the
search, and all night they trampod
ovor tho Holds. Mrs. JJlooraer took an
totlvo part, and whon morning came
ard no traco of tho child had boon
found she fell exhausted in tho field
and had to bo carried to the house.
All day Wednesday and Thursday
tho search was kept up. By this timo
fully ono thouand men, woman and
children had joined tho party. On
Tl nre'lay uignt the crowd was organ
ized in definite manner and placed
four feet apart. Tho wholo country
was then tramped over for tally two
miles In every direction. During nil
this time Mr. nnd Mrs. Edwards dis-
nlaved an indiffcrcnoo to the child's
late that aroused suspicion, nnd they
wuro questioned closely, and their an
swers seemed to bo indefmito to the
axr.itWl nnnnlo and thov wero taken in
charge by the mob and arrested nnder

Edwards and tho other was civon tho

Mrs. Edwards is a larco woman of
emotional character, and whon com
manded to confess tho crime under
penalty of bow banned, she finally

had thrown a stick of firewood, she
said, at a rat in tho kitchen, and bad
hit tho child by mistake, killing it in
stantly, and had thrown the oody in.
to the creek. Sho was told to lead the
party to tho placo where tho body had
been thrown. Tho creok was dragged,
but Mrs. Edward's statement could not
be verified.
Sho was taken to tho nearest troa
and a ropo placed around her neck,
She was told tho fate that awaited her
it she did not tell whero tho body was,
but sho repeated her former assertion
Then she was given an opportunity to
oner prayer, and was then drawn up
from the ground. Sho was allowed to
remfdn suspended in the air for a min
ute until her face bcoamo black from
impending strangulation. Sho was
then lowered to tho ground in an un
conscious condition. Whon she re
vived sufliciontly to speak she was
asked if Bhe was ready to toll tho truth.
"If you are not," tho loader said,
"you will be hanged tho next timo un
til you are dead, and your husband will
be burned at tho Btake.'' Tho poor
woman was actually too badly frighten
ed to speak, and assuming her silence,
to bo voluntary the mob again fasten
ed tho ropo about her neck and she
was again suspended in tho air. This
timo sho was permitted to remain
longer, and when cut down sho was
moro dead than alive. The mob was
about to hang her tho third time, whoa
Bloomer, tho father of tho missing
child, persuaded the mob to desist,
only, however, because if Mrs. Ed
ward's life was taken tbo body of the
child could never bo found. Mrs. Ed
wards was then taken to the house
and placed in charge of a guard.
In the meantime that part of tho
mob which had Edwards in charge at
tempted to extort a confession from
him. Ho protested his innocence and
he too was hanged from a tree and cut
down. Still lie maintained that ho
was innocent. Again ho was strung
np and again cut down. He could
not be mado to confess.
Oa Friday night the prisoners wero
placed in tbo jail. 1-rom that timo un
til next morning a mob varying
in numbers from 5U0 to l,5UU con
tinually surrounded tho jail, clamoring
for the lives of tho accused. Tho
Sheriff barricaded tho doors, and arm
ing himself and the jailers, kept them
at bay.
Early next morniog the missing
child was found alivo and well, sit
ting on tho door step of a farmer near

Jossoph Bttwier, who was appointed by
tho otato b nil (Jommissionors to clean
out tho illegal fish contrivances in the
Snsquehanna River, attended to his
work in a proper manner. Mr. Berrier
arrived home to-day niter an ovouiiui
week of iu Ho started in at Sunbury,
and toro out fifty nets and sixty out
lines and arrested seven men, fivo of
whom aro under bail at Sanbury and
two at Millcrsburg. Mr. Berrier was
sent to New Bloomfield to-day to see
the Perry County sheriff about tearing
out the dams in the Juniata. The
sheriff of Northumberland County,
with a posse of nun, yesterday began
at Georgetown to work up the rivor to
Sunbury, tearing out fish dams, a kind
of work that requires considerable skill
and strength. Sherili Sbcesloy will
pretty soon turn his attention to the
lull dams in Uaupbin uoanty.
In this weok's issue of the Journal
of United Labor, tho offiolal order of
tho Kmghts of Labor, thero will ap
pear a leading editorial denying the
report relative to tho alleged disrup
tion of tho order and ot the Daourupi
condition of its treasury. Tho article
says that tho reason tho goneral lec
turers wero called in was on account
of the special fund of $20,000 having
become exhauned. The executive
boatd has no authority to draw on the
general fund for any other pnrposo
than to meet general expenses. The
statement that tho general executivo
board was working without salary is
branded as a lie, as are other state
ments concerning Mr. Powderly.
In tho case of tho commonwealth

Jndgo Simonton has granted an order

Mr. and Mrs. Edwards wero then re
loasod. Tiiey are still suffering from
the effects of their harsh treatment.
Tho marks of tho ropo whero it had

made to prosecute tbo leaders of tho

Tho coal trade shows greater activity,
but tho policy of restriction is still en
lorceu.
Tho circular prices nro now main
tained except in a fow cases. So
marked has been tho restriction that
sudden inoreaso in tho demand is like
ly to como at any timo. Tho stock on
hand Septombor 1 was 795,7-10 tons.
It is behoved that tho output for tho
year will not oxcoed 30,000,000
tons. Tho output at tho close of last
week amounted to 21,603,219 tons
compared with 20,095,784 tons in tho
sarao period of 1888, a doorcase of 2,
092,505 tons. Thero was a decrease
in the Decembor output of ovor a mil
lion tons, as compared with tho pro
ceeding month. Tho approach of cold
weathor has stimulated tbo trado, an
a short but active season is expected.
Tho liussian iraporial family have
very indifferent health and two or thro
members aro always moro or los
Boriously ill. The condition of tho
Grand Duchess Maria I'aulovna has
been pronounced hopeless. Tho Czar'
two uncles, the Grand Dukes Conetan

invalids. It is said that when his sister
the Grand Duohess Mario of Leuohten

It is estimated that $80,000 and a num

Mr. A. Speer, of Now Jersey, whose

to import i ort w ino urape vines

Portugal, where the driest old ports
were made, and to plant vineyards of
them in New Jersey. His Port, Bur

Gas Companies Have No Control Oyer the
Surface of lands They Leave.
A dispntcb from Findlav, Ohio, says:
Judge Pendleton, of tho Hancock
county coutt of common pleas, yester
day delivered bis decitnon in tho in
junction suit of the Standard Oil comp
any against tho Toledo, Findlay and
Springfield railroad, to restrain that
corporation from constructing Us road
be 1 over the lands on wind, tho
Standard held lease on tho ground that
uj un ur gus leusu uarriuu wim it ausui
ute control of the premises for all purp
oses save alone agricultural. Tho Judtio
dirolved the injunction, and in doing
so rendered a leugthy opinion dnying
tho position taken by the Standard
that its leases of lands imlurlel tbo
ricbt to control the eurfaco to such an
extent as to prevent tbo owners from
giving or selling tho right of way
across it for a railway or other high
way. Jndgo rend o'on ih o iled that
lie leases made to the standard by tno
owners of the laud did not cover the
coutrol of tho surface of tho lands, but
only gave tho lessees tho right to uso
inch of the snrfacc as was necessary to
lhe prosecution of their work in devel
oping and utilizing tho gas and oil in
the interior.
A decision in favor of tho company
would havo given, thein and other
companies absolute control over hund
reds of thousands of acres ot land in
Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania. Tho
Standard attorneys gavo notico of ap
peal.
