Washington-, Sept 5. Ex-Attorney-General
Garland will appear st the net
term of the Supreme Conrt of the United
States as counsel for the defendants in a
most remarkable criminal cause, tvhich
conies before that body on a writ of error.
3 1 is what is known in Xorthern Texas as
the "ilarlow rob Cases," in which a kins
man of Mr. Garland -is involved with the
defense. The Court will be called upon to
determine a most interesting point of
constitutional law relating to the rights of
citizens.
The official records in the case, now on
file in the Supreme Court, disclose an
etounding conspiracy 'which led by gradual
tteps a whole community into a scries of
criminal transactions. This conspiracy was
batched by peace officers and county offi
cials and included prominent citizens,
Indictments were found hy the wholesale
uTainst the conspirators and such of the
participants in the mobs as could be identi
iied. A trial in the United States District
Court followed, at which three men, all
jieace officers, were found guilty and sen
tenced to long terms in the penitentiary.
Xhe story of thee cases in all its strange
and tragic details is now told for the first

ACTORS I" TIIF. TRAGEDIES.
The four sons of a Texas doctor were the
chief actors in the tragedies. They were
Uoone, Georg. Alfred, Charles and Lew
elleyn, typical honet frontiersmen, dead
f hots and expert cattle men. Ijite in An
pjst, 1SS8, the first step was taken in the
Ferics which led to the sanguinary frar at
Jry Creek. Two deputy United States
Harshals, Ed "V. Johnson and Sam Cris
well, went into the Indian Territory and ar
rested lour 01 tne .Harlow brothers, the
Jather being dead, on a charge of stealing 33
liorscs from IJa-Sm-Da-Ba, a Caddc Indian.
Oliis stealing was alleged to have taken
jilacc in lb8j. George was temporarily an
ient on a trading expedition.
Johnson and Crisw ell had not been es
pecially fortunate in preventing the raids
of the rustlers or in arresting them after
ward They determined therefore to arrest'
somebody on a charge of horse stealing,
swear them into the penitentiary and make
themselves popular with the cattlemen.
They carried the four ilarlow bov, Alfred,
Charles, Boone and Eph, to the jail at Gra
ham. When George Marlow returned he,
too, was thrown into jaiL Johnson and
Crisw ell then industriously disseminated
the opinion that the Marlows were cut
tnroats, hore thiees and rustlers gener
ally. Thev succeeded, in fact, in making
the impression on the public mind that each
oi me -uariows was a "bad man." Their
idea was to get up a mob and kill the
brothers.
THE SIOB AT TH3 JAIL.
The Marlows were treated with everr ini
dignity. Finally they escaped, went back
to the Denson p'lace, were arrested again
and this time chained in pairs. The mob
came, Charley Marlow knocked one down
with his fist and he afterwards died, while
the other brothers, armed with pieces of
lead pipe, kept the whole mob at bay.
Finally the mob gave up defeated. Then
the leaders got together again and fixed up
the details of tha next attempt. This was
to have the brothers removed to Dallas and
to lie in wait at Dry Creek and deliberately
murder them from 'ambush as they were be
ing taken througli. Just before reach
ing Dry Creek the ehicle8, in charge
of men who were in with the
conspirators, were stopped, and the
guards made a show of friendliness. But
tne assertions or the guards did not
deceive Charlev Marlow. As their hack
eme-ged from the creek bed and climbed up
the acent lie saw the trees and bushes on
the south side of the lane, the moon, now
well up, shedding a bright light over the
none "B-ns," be said, "we'll all be
killed in 15 minutes. The mob is hiding
somewhere in that brush."
THE CONARDI.T ATTACK.
Hardlv were those words out of his
mouth when the leader of the mob rose
irom the bush and shouted:
"Halt" Hold up your hands!"
A sheet of flame leaped out from the
bushes, the reports Irom a tcore of rifles
rang out upon the still jir, a crowd of
armed men sprang through the open gate
and ran elling to the foremost hack. Mar
tin, the driver, scrambled hastily down and
to the h-ads olhis horses, cryingas he went:
"The scoundrels are in there. Kill 'em
oil."
At the first alarm Charier and Alf
Jumped over the side of the 'hack attar
irom the mob, hobbled as fast as their
shackles and chains would permit to the
hack where the cuards tiere. and eiu-h
smtched a Winchester from one of the
guards. George and Eph followed the
other two As they struct tho ground A
man with a rifle in "his hand passed them.
George Marlow sprang on big back, bore
lnm to the ground, and seized his rifle and
revolt cr Passing the pistol to Eph he
cocked the guu and, as the man arose and
started to run, George shot him in the back.
The mob, passiug to the front and rear of
the two hacks, fired a volley point blank
upon the Marlows, who were standing back
to back. The battle of Dry Creek had be

ranks of the mob. One mail tell,

The mob, disconcerted br finding the Mar
lows armed and fighting with unshaken
courage, retreated to the brush. In a few
minutes the mob made another rush, firin?

with a bullet in the brain. Eph Marlow
elso fell. George was shot through the right
hand. Charley was unhurt. One brother
in each chained pair had been shot down.
The other tw o were rendered onlv the more
desperate. Undismayed they fired shot after
shot into the ranks of their foes, George
resting his rifle on his wounded right arm
and working the lever of the magazine with
Ins left hand. Two of the mol) fell in the
road and lay where thev dropped. Others,
vounded, ran off shouting and cursing witli'
pain. Again the mob took to the brush.
George called to Charier, but there was
no answer. He called to Alf, bnt he was
dead George stood there alone, sorely
hurt, his pistol hand shot through and use
less, chained to his dead brother. In his
furv he dared the mob to return to the at
tack. "Come on again, ron cowardly assassins!
"tVe got plentv of" arms and ammunition
and nobody hurt! Come on, you cowards!"
One man of that panic-stricken mob
turned back. It was Trank Harrison, con

A DUEL TO THE DEATH.
Frank Harrison did not heed the warning.-
He walked quickly through the woods
and clumps of bushes, 'passed through the
fate and stepped out Into the road. George
larlow saw him coming. He dropped his
rifle, the magazine or which was empty,
stooped down and picked up the pistol
which he bad given Eph at the beginnine

for a moment in silence; Then raising
their pistols, they; fired simultaneously
then again and again. At each shot George
Marlow advanced a step, dragging after
him the dead body of the brother to whom
he was chained. At the fourth fire Frank
Harrison leaped into the air and fell life

"So intently was George Marlow watching
Tank Harrison's advance that he failed to
see a tall man step from the shadows of the
trees hardly ten paces away, and raise his
pistol to shoot him. Charley had regained
consciousness. He fired quickly upon the
tall man, hitting him in the leg. Then be
gan a duel between these two, Charley Mar
low and Eugene Logan, the former lying on
the ground, the latter standing. They
emptied their six-shooters at each other
without fatal effect. Charley was struck
twiee, the bullets ploughing ugly furrows
in his scalp. Logan "was hit three times,
and was badlv hurt. The last time Logan
was hit he fell, but he had strength enough
left to crawl into the center of the brush.
The battle of Dry Creejv was ended.
George looked inquiringly at Charley,
who directed him to hunt for a knite.
Searchinir the dead body of one of the mob
ie found a big claspknifs. This he gave to
Charley, who bad tbe use ot both bands.
Charley then unjointed the shackled ankles
of h's dead brothers and treed himself and
George. They gathered up all the arms
and ammunition they could find, loaded one
of the hacks with them and drove off. They
went to the Denson farm, arriving shortly
before day, and barricaded their home.
COOLER HEADS SAW THROUGH IT.
0er 100 men were soon at the cabin,
under the leadership of the relentless con
spirator. All sorts of counsel was offered,
until at last Marion Lasaternnci some of the
cooler heads saw the animus of Collier and
his fellow conspirators. Ko attack was
made, and finally tbe brothers surrendered
to Captain Morton and were taken to Dallas.
"When the March term of the court came
on George and Charley Marlow, who had
recovered from theft wounds, wers put on
trial on the original indictments charging
thcmviti stealing 33 horse J from Ba-Sin-Da-Ba.
the Caddo India i. As there was no
evidence against them they were acquittel.
onorwy alter tne oattie tnree desperadoes
arrived in Graham from the Indian Terri
tory. They drove up to the Court House
and there took a big bundle ont of their
wagon and carried it in. "When the wrap
pings were removed the bloated body of a
man was discovered.
"There's Boone Marlow's dead body. "We
killed him in the Indian Territory, and
n e'vo brung him here to git that reward,".
said tne spokesman.
PATE OF BOONE MARLOW.
It required a Coroner's inquest to decide
whether it wasBooneMarlow s body or not..
Finally it was decided that it was, and the
reward of $1,600 offered by the conspirators
atthetimeofthekillinr of Sheriff "Wal
lace was turned over to ths three despera
does. Beaver, Derrickson and Harbolt.
These three men have since beeu Indicted
in the United States Court for ths murder
of Boone Marlow.
At the time when the dead body was ex
posed to view it was botieed by physician 1
did not look as do gunshot wounds inflicted
on a live body An investigation was after
ward set on foot by the United States
authorities, and testimony was obtained
which indicates that Boone Marlow was
murdered under peculiarly horrible circum
stances. According to this testimony,
Boone Harlow, had a sweetheart In one of
the white families in the Indian territory.
"When he escaped after killing "Wallace he
went up to the part of the country where his
sweetheart lived. He made his presence
known to her. He kept in hiding, only
venturing out to see her and to get food that
She would leave for him. The girl had a
reckless and vicious brother. He learned
that Boone was in the neighborh6od and
that his sister was . feeding him. He
made known his discovery to his fellow
desperadoes. They procured poison, and
the brother of Boone's sweetheart mingled
the poison with the food that his sister con
veyed to her lover. He ate it and died.
Tbe three wretches then shot the dead body,
so as to mate it appear that Boone had been
killed in a fair fight, as they claimed at
Urabam.
IT WAS A FAMOUS TRIAL.
The trial of the conspirators and mob
leaders was an eventful one. It was held
at Graham, In the United States Court of
the Northern District of Texas, 60 miles
from a railroad, and lasted 30 days. Judge
A. P. McCormlck presided. People flocked
In from all the surrounding counties. Every
body entering the little court house was
searched for deadly weapons. An anteroom
next to the door was filled with six-shooters
and bowie knives and "Winchester rifles.
The lawyers on each side were among the
leaders of the Texas bar. The case
is now before the Supreme Court on
a Writ of error, and the points involved will
be determined for the first time. The de
fendants were indicted under two sections
of the civil righto act, popularly known as
thethe"KuKluxact." The first of these
sections provides that if two or more per
sons conspire to deprive a citizen of the
United States of the enjoyment of a right
secured to him by the" Constitution aDd
laws of the United States, they shall be
liable to Imprisonment not to exceed ten
years and to a fine not to exceed ?5 000. The
second of these sections proiides that if, in
the pursuance of any such conspiracy, any
uiucr gnme is cummmea, ine person com
mitting it shall be liable to such punish
ment, in the United States Courts, as the
laws of tbe State in which such crime is
committed prescribed for such an offense.

SOME OP THE LEADING EXHIBITORS
. The first Saturday nieht of the Exposition
arrived in a shower of rain, or, rather, in a
severe' thunderstorm. It was rather dis
couraging to the- managemeat, but the
bravery with which the people found their
way down to Duquesneway, by cars, cabs
and other vehicles, and on foot when it was
not convenient to ride, Was flattering to the
attractions offered in the great Bhow. There
was n fair attendance last-night, in spite of
the awful weather. Pittsburgers, or a large
number of them, have become accustomed
to consider Saturday night as the great
holiday time of the week, and they flock to
the Exposition as naturally as ducks take
to water.
Prof. Cappa and his band were tbe main
attraction last night It may be that the
mud and misery outside emphasized the
light and comfort within. At all events,
the music of the beautiful Seventh Eegl
ment Band never sounded so sweet since the
Exposition opened as it did last night. The
gaily-dressed crowds, moving slowly up and
down the hall in rhythm to tbe strains of
reed and brass and strings, and the soft hum
of voices through the softer passages of the
music, had a delightful effect. Everybody
seemed to be there for pleasure, and they
were getting it The wet weather had
affected the theaters, but it was hardly felt
at the Exposition. And this, too, in spite
of the building being further from the cen
ter ot the city than most ot tbe playnouses.
But the people wont the Exposition, wher
ever it may be.
In Mechanical hall the girls at the cigar
factory were making up- their little bundles
of cigars, and, decorating them with gaily
colored ribbons, were handing them to tne
bashful swains who blushed in the faces of
the pretty girls who bestowed the gifts
upn them. The busy hqm of machinery,
the whirling of wheels, and the flapping of
great belts, added to the fires Irom tbe
flass houses, made it a beautiful as Well as
ewildering scene.

Hopper Bros. A Co.,
In their disrdav of clecant. luxurious fur

place in the estimation of the delighted
public Let your eye rest here and there
upon some of the handsome objects. Host
impressive is a sideboard of antique oak, in
which the actual boldnesB of the apparent
simplicity of form is astonishing; the rich
ness of the carving, the massive beveled
mirror, the intelligent arrangement of the
drawers, closets and cabinets to hold largo
and small silver well, tbe ladies who
have seen it all wish it belonged
to them. A parlor cabinet of mahoganlzed
cherry is as tasteful and handsome as pos
sible; in fact, it would only be appropriate
in a room of surpassing richness.' The
library is not forgotten, as may be seen in
the inviting leather-covered lounge and the
restiul-lookJnjr great square arm chair; and
for a part of the drawing room there is the
exquisitely dainty suit of four pieces
Covered with the new furnitnrs material,
satin damask, and all the fancy knick
knacks and small objects which are neces
sary to give just -the proper tone to the
whole affair, are all to be fonnd in their
places, just as if they were meant to stay
there permanently, but already people are
trying to secure different articles for their
homes at close of the Exposition, for they
know how very desirable those goods ar.
A NOVEL DISPLAY MADE BT
Bosenbaam
Co., of 10 to C18 Market
Street
This beautiful display commands instant
attention from the visitors to the Exposi
tion, for it is the only one of the kind in
the building: the articles are of the hand
somest and the arrangement above criticism.
It is amusing to watch the iaces Of people
when they realize that the figures are wax,
and not living beings that sit in chairs or
wave fans about to distract -the unwary.
Bosenbaum 8s Co. propose to keep up
this interest in their exhibit dur
ing the continuance of the season by
bringing new delights from week to week
from the mammoth establishment on Market
street to charm still further those who
know and appreciate handsome, tasteful and
tasnionabie tancies tor tbe autumn. There
is such a multitude of fine goods at the
Ebsenbaitm stores that they will not be
missed from tbe stock, yet it is just snch
things which show how immense the trade
of that house is. It is a stock of propor
tions like this which can stand such a drain
upon it as would be an impossibility to the
majority.
OHi WELL SUPPLY CO.
These sections are respectively No. 5,508
and Ko. 5,509 of the Revised Statutes of
the United States. Judge McCormick, in
his charge to the jury, set forth the theory
on which the case rests, as follows;
"When a citizen is committed to the cus
tody of the United States Marshal, or to a
State jail by process issued from one of the
courts of the United States, to be held In de
fault of bail to await his trial on a criminal
charge within the exclusive jurisdiction of
the national courts, such citizen has a right,
under the Constitution and laws of the
United States, to a speedy and publio trial
by an impartial jury, and until trial, or
aiscnargeu by uue process ot law, lias the
right under said Constitution and laws to be
treated with humanity and be nroteetpd
against all unlawful violence while he is de
prived of the ordinary means of defending
and protectine himself."
This case is tbe pioneer of this view, and
the decision of the Supreme Conrt will be
awaited with great interest by layman as
well as by lawyers. Recently the three
cont icted men and all the others indicted
have been admitted to bail. How this was
accomplished is a most interesting phase of
the story. Behind it is also a long and
curious history.
Complete Outfits for Oil, Gas or Artesian
Wells.
This extensive organization, whose dis
play is located in upper end of Exposition
grounds, is capable within itself to furnish
Irom its own manufactories and shops every
thing necessary to drill oil, gas or artesian
wells of any kind, tind fit them up to pro
duce and to supply the pipes and connec
tions for taking away the products found.
They manufacture engines, boilers, tubing,
casing and pipe, drilling tools and fittings
of all kinds. All the major and minor
accessories, of their craft are fully illus
trated in implements employed in carrying
on such business. Practical minds, inter
ested in modern appliances devoted to an
industry 8o important as drilling for oil, gas
or water, win appreciate tbis display. The
