Mrs. Owens was dead when police

Mrs. Owens hed been married before

William Mergnn, the latter n snlier de
tailed nt the New Yerk Navy Yard.

Fredericksburg, Va., Oct. ii. Reger
D. Eastlake, chief petty officer In the
United States navy, nnd MUs Sarah
Knox, a trained nurse, In Jail here
accused of murdering Eastlakc's wife,
Mill declare strongly thnt they arc In
nocent, nnd have hired an attorney te
represent them.
They were brought here from
Mentress, Vn., in Westmoreland Coun
ty, after nn unsuccessful ntteir.nt made
by a mob early yesterday morning te
tnlfe them from the Mentress Jail anil
Ijneh them.
The suspects nre In cells in the
Fredericksburg police station, instead
of in the ancient Fredericksburg jail
giving them better protection agninst a
possible renewal of mob violence. Armed
men nre stnndlng gunrd day and night
in front of their cell doers, nnd the
relice force Is ready for trouble at anj
moment.
Will Re Preietted at Any Cost
Fredericksburg authorities say they
will protect the prisoners at nny cost
If nccessnry, they will be removed from
Fredericksburg, which . is fifty miles
from Colonial Beach, Vn., where Mrs.
Enstlake was murdered, te Richmond,
Va., and held there until their trial.
The men and woman yesterday were
visited by W. W. Rutzner, of Frcder
iekrburg, the attorney they have en
gaged te handle their case. He was
with them for several hours, but re
fused te reveal what took plare in the
privacy of their cells, except te t-ny
that they claim they are innocent and
that the murder was committed by n
mnn whom Miss Knox saw fleeing from
the house.
The prisoners have been examined,
but net put through the "third degree."
Ner have any arrangements been made
for their hearing. They were held by
the Corener's jury, nnd under the forms
of Virginia law will new be taken be
fore a magistrate. It has net been de
termined who will hear the case. It
will be necessary, however, te take them
from Spetsylvnnin County, ff which
FredericKsburg Is located, back Inte
Westmoreland County, where the crime
wus committed.
District Attorney Maye may visit
the prisoners in their cells today, and
endeavor te get from them morn com
plete facts concerning the crime than
have yet been rcvenled.
It was net until Saturday afternoon
thnt people who had known Mrs. Kast
lake during the brief time she nnd her
family were at Colonial Reach learned
the full details of the crime.
Feeling Runs High
leeling ran high nil the day, and fnr
into the night llttle groups discussed
the gruewome detnils of the murder.
Many saw the body Saturday afternoon,
and the sight of the frail, thin woman,
her face scarred with the marks of n
l.ntchet, worked the feelings of the mob
te frenzy.
It was near midnight when the mob
winch threatened the two suspects with
Ijnehing began te form. They gathered
nt Colonial Reach and took no pains te
hide their identity. The suspects were
in jail at Mentress. twenty niln"- n m
Several automobiles and motertruck
were pressed into sen Ice te enrrv the
threatening men te thep rlsen.
Most of these hi the mob were mined.
Ceils of rope were tnken nleng.
Seme of the crowd even mode bets
en the time it would take te dis
pose of the prisoners, nnd which
would be lynched first. There was no
seciccy nneut the mob s purpose. The
itinier spread round the town, nnd n
group of newspaper men, in nn nuto nute nuto
mehiie, stnrted In advance of the party
te see what might take place, waiting
off the read half way between Colonial
Reach nnd Mentress.
County Attorney Tabes Precaution
Watt Maye, of Colonial Reach, the
county attorney, beard of the proposed
lynching, nnd set out in IiIh automobile
ahead of the mob te take meusiires for
the protection of the suspei ts. The
lynching party alreadj were forming
and getting aboard their automobiles
when Maye whizzed past in his own
machine. He was recognized, but no
greeting wns exchanged between him
and the mob. He went nt n rapid rate
in the direction of Montrese, passing
the newspaper car en the wnv.
The mob started about " nYlnnb ht

becnuse one of the lending cars went into
a ditch, and the ethers stepped te haul
it out. It was about 3 o'clock when
they came close te the Inil. even- hrrlit
