Ill-timed sense of Blutuie, or dreud of discovery,
deters hint from applying to those who, from
education and respectability, can alone befriend
him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms ol
this hurrid disease uiake their nppeuruuee, such
as ulcerated sore throat, diseased nose, noctural
pains lu the head and limbs, dlmnes of sight,
dwfness, nodes on tho slilu bouea and arms,
blotches on the head, faco and extremities, pro
gressing with frightful rapidity, till at last the
llate of the mourn or the iionce oi tne nose tail

a horrid object of commiseration, till death puts
a period te his dreadful suffering, by sending

DISCOVERY OF A MURDERER'S DUN CON
i TAININO EIGHT VICTIMS.
Tho Kftnsaa City (Mo.) ZYhim poii Lai n b
tho followiug account of a dreadful affair
already alluded to iu our telegraphic col
umns :
What follows in its facts may read like
the recital of somo horrible dream, where
in uighlmara mirrors upon the distemper
ed brain a couutlees number of monstrous
and uunaturul tilings, yet what is set dowu
in the narrative is as true as the sun.
From the information furnished to us
last night by a. gentleman just from the
seeno of the butchery, and from distintcliia
nud accounts already published, wa aro en
abled lo give a tolerably dotailed account
of the monstrous aeries of murdura un ti
date. . . ...
Tho becirminiz of the end cAmn nhnnl. In
this vriso : On tho Oth of March, Dr. Wil
liam JL York, tho brother of that other
York, famous bow for his Dcnetration of
the guilty secrets of Pomoroy, and his be
trayal iu Ilia supreme moment of tho Sen
atorial crisis ol tho trusts confided to his
keeping, left 1'ort Scott, on horsebnek, for

did not come home. His friends watched
and waited for him bis family prayed and
prayed for him -the talk of tho town dealt
day after day with him cacncctatiou decn-
cnud into downright caruestuess, until on i
tno zsin ot juaren tho Lawruuce IriOune
gave a brief account of tho mysterious dis
apxaruuee. All at once thereafter all thu
pnpers iu tho State took ui tho tale of his
journey, of his nou-artival, of the fears of
foul play, and of all tho littlo details and
circumstances that might go to show that
ue uau oeen murdered. ,
The most thorough search known to
finite skill was at once commenced. His
neighbors turned out en masse. Ilis bro
ther, Colonel A. M. York, rested neither
oy nay nor night in his labors, but followed
What seemed to him a trull with tho tenaci
ty of an Indian, and the devotion of a saint.
Hirers wcro dragged, spots' lit for au am
bush wero probed foot by foot, lonesome
places wore quested as a keen hound scents
a trail that is cold, routes that ho was sup
posed to have folio wod had scouts upon it
from city to city, tho tracks of his horse ev
en were attempted to be idoutilled. but all
to uo purpose. Not a shadow of evidence
rested auywhoro to say that Dr. York had
been murdered not a sign auywhero told
bow he came to his death, if death indeed
had o vet-taken l.im unawares. Ho was
traced to Chcrryvale, but no further.
There the trail was no longer a trail, but a
myth, a mystery, nn enigma neither the
un wearied jmtieuce of friends uor the sac
rificing devotion of a brother could solve.
Cherryvalo is a small town ou the Jea
veuwortli, Lawrence and Galveston rail
road, aud is in Labette couuty, about fifty
miles from the south lino of tho State. To
the south of Cherry vale, some two miles or
less, stands a frame house, having iu front
a large room, where the meals were served,
and in rear a sleeping room, furnished with I
wwi. an,i noma scant additional furut-
WILLIAM AND THOMAS IIKNDKR
lived in this house with their wives. To
the right of the dwelling house was an out
house, nud iu the rear was an enclosed
gardeu of possibly two acres. K
The search seemed to end suddenly at
Cherry vale. Suspicion, if ever entertained,
fell upon no oue. There wero various sur
mises, conjectures and expressions ofopin-
K ; but for the life of any tnnu he could
not ay what had become of Dr. York.
Oue day, early in April, some men from
Cherryvale rodo over to the Uendor house
a tavern too, it was where entertain
ment was furnished to travellers, to inquire
concerning Dr. l ork, and to learn, it pos
sible, some tidings of his fate. They learn
ed nothing, however. Xoue of tbo I3undcrs
bud seen hi in, uor heard of him, nor his
mysterious disappearance, or anything
that pertained to him. Very well, the men
said, and they ode back again as fully in
formed as before.
Win. Bender, tho eldest of tho brothers,
had a wife who was a spiritunlist. The ba
lance of the licudcrs called her a medium
the neighbors a sbo devil. Sho was forty-two
with iron-gray hair, rnggod at tho
cuds, and tbiu over her temples. Her eyes
wero steel-gray and hard. AH t'uo house
hold feared ber, dreaded hero obeyed her,
aud, as tho .sequel proves, did the devil's
work for her beyouil all tho atrocious dev-
it's work ever done lu Kansas,
Time went slowly by, and u man riding
in one day from the prairio Baw no smoke
arising from Bender's chimney. The win
dows wero dowu, the doors were dosed,
there was no sigu of lifcanvwhcrc. Tlieso
evidences of emigration did uot even inter
est him. So absolute wus the stupor over the
disappearance of Dr. York that au awak
ening had to depend upou an absolute dis
covery. This man, however, iu riding by
a pen to the left of the house, saw a dead
calf in tho lot, aud upon further investiga
tion and with th practicul eyes of a prac
tical farmer, used loguessiui the weight of
live stock upou the iioof, be knew that the
calf had '
DIKO OF STARVATION.
Then tho truth came, as au overflow of
ten comes to n Kansas creek, all of a sud
den and overwhelming. Such a death sug
gested (light, flight niCHUt guilt, and tho
nature of the guilt was surely murder. He
galloped into Cherryvale, and related what
he had seen. Tho town aroused itself. A
party was organized instantly, and set out
for the Bender mansion. Then it was re
membered thatabout two weeks before this
say some where near the 24th of April
William Bender had sold to some persons
cither in or near Cherryvale. a watch, somo
clothing of One character, two mules, and
perhaps a shot gun or two, and some pis
tols. How did Ju come by theso Y If the
dead could speak, the qucsliou might be
readily answered.
Tho party from Cherryvale arrived at the
bouse directly npou the Osago Missien
road, having tho outhouse in the rear
and to the south of it. In the rear, as we
have said, was a cardeu. This at first was.
not examined. The first room in the house
wus carefully searched, evet-y crack and
crevice being minutely looked into, and
subjected to the application of rods aud le
ver to see if the llooi iug was either hollow j
or loose. JSoUiiug came ot It an. AO
blood spots appeared. Tho floor was so
lid tho walls were solid. If there wero
dead men about, they were not iu the front
room. Then came the back room. Tho
beds were removed. Iu bis (light the elder
Bender bad left everything untouched. Not
even the doors wore locked, though such
hail hnnn tha ranutation of the abe-devil
that the Dremisos stood as safe from intru
sion us if protected by it devil iu reality.

After the beds had boon removed one of
the party noticed a slight depression In the
floor, which upon closor eiamination, re-

above. Thev groped about over tlieso
splotches aud held up a handful to tho
light. The ooze Btneared Itself over thoir
palms, and dribbled through their fingers
it was blood.
The party had provided thomsolves with
a long -sharp rod of Iron which they drove
into the ground in every direction at Uio
bottom of the pit, but nothing further re
warded tho search, and they camo away to
examine the carden in the roitr nftliH 1uia
After boring or prodding, as it were, for
nearly an hour, the rod was driven down
into a spot, and when it was withdrawn
oinntbitifr that, looked liko matter adhered
to the point. Shovels were at once set to
work, and in a few moments a corpse was
uncovered. It had been buriod upon its
face. The flesh had dropped from tho logs.
Thero was no coffin, no wiudiuff sheet, no
preparation for tho grave, nothiug upou
thb body but an old shirt, torn lo places,
aud thick with damp nnd decay. Tho
corpse was tenderly disinterred, and laid
upon its back in the full light of tho soft
April sun. Ono look of horror Into tbo
ghastly; face, festering and swolleu, aud a
dozen voices cried out in terror
"IT IS DR. YORK ',"
And it was. lie had been buried In a
snauow Hole, with scarcely two foctof dirt
over him. Had ho been murdered and
now I nicy examined him closely. Upou
the back of li is head, aud lo tbo left, and
obliquely from his right ear, a terriblo blow
had been given with a hammer. The skull
had becu driven into tho brain. Strong
uon turned away from the sickening sight
witli a shudder. Others went. Snn in pvrni
hud to leave tho garden, and remain away
from tho shambles of tho butchers.
It seemed as if tho winds carried Uio tid
ings to Chercyvale. In au hour all tho
towu was at the sceuo of tho discovery. A
coffin was procured for Dr. York's body,
and his brother, utterly overwhelmed, sat
by the ghastly remains as ouc upou whom
the hand of death had been laid. He could
not bo comforted.
But tho horrible work was not yot com
pleted. The iron rod was again put iu re
quisition, until six more graves wcro dis
covered, five of which contained each a
corpse, and the sixth containing two, an
old man und a littio girl. Somo wero in
tho last stages of decomposition, and oth
ers, not so far gone, might have been iden
tified if any among the crowd had known
them in life.
The sceuo was horrible beyond descrip
tion. The daylight llod from tho prairies,
but the search went on with unabated vi
gor. A fascination impossible to define,
held the spectators to tho spot. Tho spirit
of murder was there, and it kept them in
spite of the night cJUA.l:.U'SJL
of diiIB":Irao the search reuewod. It
was past miduight when our informant left,
but three more graves had boeu discovered,
each supposed to coubtiu a corpse, al
though they had not been opened. Tho
whole country is aroused. Couriers aud
telegrams have been sent in every direction
with descriptions of tho Benders, aud it is
not thought possible that they can cscapo.
With the crowd at the grave was a man
named Brockmun who was supposed to
kuow something about the murders. Fu
rious men laid hold upon him at once, nnd
strung him up to a heum in the house. His
contortions wero fearful. His eyes started
from their sockets, and a livid hue camo to
las face that wus appalling. Death was
yitliiu reach of him when lie was cut down.
"CONFESS I CONFESS 1"
they yelled, but ho said nothing. Again
ho was jerked from his feet, and again was
tho strong body convulsed with tho death
throes. Again resuscitated, ho onco more
refused to open his mouth. Ho did not
appear to anderstaud what was wanted of
him. I he yelling crowu, the mutilated and
butchered dead, the flickering aud swirling
torches sputtering iu the night wiud, tho
stern, set faces of bis executioners, all pass
ed before him as a dreadful phantasmago
ria, which daxed him Bud struck him
speechless. For the third lime they swung
him up, and then his heart could not be
felt to beat, and there was no pulso at his
wrisls. . "He is dead, they said. But he
was not dead. Tho night air revived him
at Inst, and ho was permitted lo stagger
away in the darkness as one who was
drunken or deranged. '
Six butchered human beings were
brought forth from thoir bloody graves.and
three others ore yet lo be uncovered. It is
thought that more graves will yet bo dis
covered. Tho pit under the trapdoor was
made to receive tho body when first struck
down by the murderer's hammer. All the
skulls were crushed in, nud alt at nearly
the santu 'pltice. One of the corpses was so
horribly mutilated as to make tho Bex even
a matter of doubt. The little girl was pro
bably eight years of age, aud hud long,
sunny hair, aud some truces of beauty ou a
counteuauco that was uot entirely disfigur
ed by decay. Nothing like this sickening
series of crimes has ever been recorded in
the whole history of the country.
People for hundreds of miles are flocking
into Cherryvale, and enormous rewards
are to be ollured for the arrest of tho mur
derers. It is supposed '.hut they huvo been
followiug their horribles work for years.
Plunder is the accepted cause. Dr. York,
it is said, had a large sum of money ou bis
person, and Ihut he etoptscd at tho houso
either to feed his horse or get a drink of
water. W lulu halting for either ho was
dealt the blow which killed bim iu an in
tlaut. Every oue who knew him liked
