A SEVEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL ESCAPED.
The Father, Mother and Two Other Chil
dren, However, Were Tlrutally Slain to
rrevent Evidence in a Criminal Case,
While the Survivor Waa Left for Dead.
Milan, Mo., May 12. A most atrocious
crime was committed Thursday nlfght
near Drowning. Gua Meeks, his write and
two children were murdered outright and
another of the Meeks' children, a girl 7
years old, was so badly injured that sha
may not recover, Tho circumstances lead
ing up to the crime are about as follows:
There axe a number ot criminal cases
pending in Lynn and Sullivan county
against William P. Taylor and George
Taylor, brothers, the former being a
banker of Browning and the latter a
farmer. The charges against them are
forgery, arson and larceny. William P.
Taylor, Gua Meeka and others are Jointly
indicted, and Meeks pleaded guilty at the
last term and wns sent to the peniten
tiary. About a month ngo he was par
doned by Governor Stone in order to use
him as a witness against the Taylors, who
were In consequence anxious to be rid of
him.
it Is said the Taylors had arranged with
Meeks to give the latter a wagon and
team to get out of the county, so that he
might not be present when the case
against the Taylors was called for trial.
From Meeks' mother it is learned that on
Thursday her son received a letter from
the Taylors at Urownlng telling him to
be ready at 10 o'clock Thursday night to
go away; Hint Gus Meeks and children
waited for Taylor until midnight, when
two men whom Meeks said were George
and Bill Taylor, came to their home in a
wagon. Meeks and his family got Into
the wagon and started for Browning. Tho
details of the crime, as near as can be ob
tained, were told by the little 7-year-old
girl, who was sulferlng greatly as she re
cited the story.
It appears that when the Meeks family
and tho persons accompanying them
reached a point near the school house, in
Lynn county, n short distance east of
Urownlng, they were mot by two other
men who were lying in wait. Gus Meeks
was first shot, and Mrs. Meeks was also
killed. The murderers then took stones
and beat the brains out of the two of the
children, and left tho other for dead. The
murderers then, it is supposed, loaded the
whole family Into the wagon and hauled
them nearly two miles to the Taylor farm,
where they were burled under u straw-
stack.
Yesterday morning the eldest child came
to her senses and made her way to tho
residence of a Mr. Carter near by. The
Carter family then sent a boy to the Tay
lor farm, where he found the murdered
family as stated by the Meeks girl. The
Carter boy then saw Ueorge Taylor and
innocently told him of the murder, as de
scribed by the almost dying child. George
Taylor immediately started for Browning
on horseback, got his, brother William
and both departed on horseback. Their
departure from Urownlng was before the
knowledge of the murder had reached
there.
The little girl recovered sufficiently to
describe some of the parties, and upon her
evidence one Sharon McCullough, of
Gould, and George Hewlett, ot Lime
county, have been arrested as participants
In the crime. A party of citizens from
Milan anu urowning zouna at tne place
of the .murder the revolver anil . a stone
with Which the murderers had shot and
killed the father and mother and beat out
tho.bralns of the two children and left the
other for dead,

QUAY'S FILIBUSTERING MEASURE.
The r.nn.vlvanla S.nater Admits Ills De-
aire to Itetard the Tariff Hill A Repub
lican Caneus Called for Monday Even
Inff The lletnoerata Standing Together.
Washington, May 13. The Hepubll-
cans of the senate, under the leadership
of Mr. Quay, yesterday attempted a flank
movement, which, while unsuccessful, Is
nevertheless fraught with great possibil
ities for time killing, Senator Quay In
troduced a bill of 125 pages and asked for
Us rending In full. Hours could have
been consumed In this way. This was
formerly a favorite method of filibuster
ing In the house. An objection carried
the bill over, but no parliamentary
method can be employed to prevent Its
reading If Mr. Quay Insists. In the course
of the colloquy on tho subject Mr. Quay
boldly avowed his filibustering motive,
declaring defiantly that he thought time
would bu better employed that way than
in considering the tariff bill. Three
amendments to the first threeltems of the
chemical schedule were adopted. This
represented six hours' work. The senate
Is now on about the fifth paragraph. There
nre about 700 paragraphs In tho bill.
Hie Kepublican senators by their votes
yesterdny.and also In prlvnte conversation,
indicated the purpose of voting for the
amendments proposed by the Democratic
compromise committee wherever they in
crease duties and change from the ad val
orem to the specific system. This ques
tion of policy will be discuhsed at the Ke
publican caucus which Is to be held on
Monday night. Among other matters
which probably will also receive atteu.
tion at the hands of the caucus Is that of
the policy to be pursued in debating the
tariff bill. There are somo Itepubllcan
senators who hold that If the Republicans
nre to pursue the policy bf aiding tho Dem
ocrats In perfecting the bill by voting for
the amendments it Is useless to prolong
the debate and extend the session merely
to have the bill pnss In the end In the
shape the Democrats desire It, as ex
pressed In their cauctis.
The proceedings of the scnaU yesterday
have served to emphasize the Intention of
the Republicans to exploit every phase of
all the questions presented In every pnra
graph, and of the Democrats to permit
the Republicans to consume the greater
part of the time that is to be devoted to
talking. The speeches on the Republican
side were calculated to assure the Demo
cratic manngerB of the bill, nnd were in
some Instances as tantalizing as speeches
could well bo under the rules of the sen
ate, but they were only partly successful
in provoking Democrats to a response. It
was noticeable that the Democrats, with
the exception of Senator Mills, stood by
the committee recommendations on all
votes. Senators Hill and Irby, concern
ing whose position there has been specif
latlon, were absent, but Senator Murphy,
whose position has been considered some
what doubtful, stood with his party.
This practically solid vote on tho Demo
cratic side has given the Republicans no
little ooncern, as they have been hopeful
of creating division among the Democrats.
Some of them predict that the cohetsm so
far displayed will not continue, but the
Information obtainable at this time inui
cate that, however unsatisfactory the bill
Is to a number of the Democrats, tt will
continue for the present at least to receive
the voting support of all Democratic sen
ators, with possibly one or two exceptions,
The naval appropriation bill again occu
pied the attention of the house yosterday
without being finally disposed of. Gen
eral debate on the bill was closed, how
ever, after a heated controversy between
Messrs. Reed, lloutells and Uummlngs.
The bringing up of old scandals against
ex-Secretary of tho ISavy Robeson and al
legations of Republican mismanagement
of the navy department In general and the
"colonization of voters nt the navy yards
at election times in particular were re
sponsible for the turbulent closing of the
day's session. At 5 o'clock a recess was
taken until 8, the evening session being
devoted to private bills on the calendar.
Closed by the Coat Strike.
Bem-EFOXTi:, I'a.,May 10. The Valen
tine Iron works nt this place banked its
furnace on account of the scarcity of coke,
caused by the strike in the bituminous
coal regions. The closinp; down of the
furnace will throw a large number of men
out of employment until the strike Is
over.
