WMA.T A MOB IS UKELY TIME TO DO. ANV A SUNDAY PICNIC. Connection of The Negro Miller Willi The Murder or The Ray Slaters Mot Katabllatiea: Tbere Wats Mo Blood on His Clothing-. Cairo, Ills., July 10. It is now pretty generally conceded that C. J. Miller, the Springfield, Ills., mulatto who wns hanged, shot and cremated at Bard well, Ky., Friday afternoon, was executed upon the filmiest of circumstantial evi dence, or probably no evidence at all. There was not one tangible thing that connected him with the asaanlt and mur der of the Kay sisters last Wednesday morning. Information from a trustworthy source at Wycliffe is that a t-lcgram has been received tjicre confirming Miller's state ment as to where be was July 4 and 5. Miller's story was that he was at Bis marck, Mo., the morning of July 5. No one has brought forward any evidence to the contrarv. Careful inrinirv has failed to disclose a single person who will say positively that he saw Miller in Bardwell or even Carlisle county that day. Miller's first examination was held at Wickliffe, Ky., Friday morning. It bad been generally understood up to that time that there was blood on the clothing of the negro, and that a razor and large pocket knife which be car ried were also covered with blood. It turns out that not one of those who were present at the examination was convinced in his own mind that there were blood stains on the knife and rnzor or his chilling. The aid of a microscope was called into requisition to facilitate the examination, but even it failed to reveal a blood stain. Wickliffe's people inuiKing mat the proofs wereinsumctcnt retrained trom lynching Miller and pre- icrrea to wail developments. At Mi rJ well after the man was dead there wasnojulliation manifested. On the contrary, a sort of mental wet blanket seemed to settle down over the crowd. Two out of every three men cautiously expressed doubts as to the oronrietv of their action, and said they feared Mil ler's connection with the murder was not fully established. Miller never lived in Cairo, as was stated in the Sprinpficld dispatches, and was not known here. OUTLET AMD LGVEE. One Person Killed and Another Seriously Injured. Chattanooga, July 10. About a dozen members of the Tammany political or ganization, headed by Chief of Police Mitchell and Police Commissioner Ileifey, took one of thecity's patrol wagons yes terday morning, and drove to Cbicka maugua, where they intended to spend the day fishing and boating. About 12:30 a severe storm came up. Part of the crowd took refuge under tbe wngon and J. D. Crimmins and Mitchell, with an umbrella raised, not under a large oak tree. They had hardly become located when the wind tore the top of the huge tree from the trunk, and it came spinning to the ground with fright ful velocity. It struck Crimmins on tbc top of the head and the limbs caught Mitchell. The former's head was fright fully mangled and the latter had two ribs and one wrist broken, his foot was badly mashed and be-received severe cuts over the bod v. The injured men were removed to Chickamaugiia Park Hotel, a mile dis tant, where Cimmins died in half an hour. Mitchell is verv danirerouslv in jured, but it is thought he will recover. AMO rHEH BLACK EVE. how hi; got the Louisiana VOTE. All I lie courts Mlttluur Tlllmau's Stale Bar Scheme! Baltimore, Md., July 10. Gov. Till man s li(ttor law received another black eye today when JuJjjc Bond, of the United States Circuit court signed an order restraining the South Carolina State railroad commission from iuforc ing the latest issued schedules of rates on liquor. Hugh L. Bond, jr., representing the receivers of the Richmond and Danville railroad and liquor dealers who are testing the constitutionality of the obnoxious law, in his petition says that the uct of December, 1892, as allowing tbe railway commission of Sonth Caro lina to make arbitrary rates without permitting the railroads a hearing thereon, is in violation of the constitu tion of the United States. Argument on the question of a perma nent injunction will lie heard at Green ville, S. C, August 1. Ei Gov. Chamberlain Uhesgome Inside Hlstorv or a very inter esting Period Time For Others To Talk. Charleston, S. C, June 10. At the recent Congress of Charities in Chicago, Frederick II. Wines delivered n memorial address in honor of ex-President Hayes, in which he sought to defend Hayes from the charge that he was made President in pursuance of a bargain to remove tbe troops from Louisiana and South Caro- ina. The News and Courier today has a letter from ex-Gov. Chamberlain denying the truth of Wines' statement and assert ing that there was a bargain of which Hayes was cognizant. He concludes his paper as follows : '1 have the evidence of no less than five of those who took part in the Worm ley Conference, who have told me in -detail the terms of an agreement or unaer standing reached between Hayes and Hayes friends, one or both, and the shrewd, long headed men of the South, lor removaf of the troons. I have seen and read two written memoranda of this agreement or understanding, and I know that those memoranda and other memoranda to the same effect are now in existence which will some day set at rest all doubts of the tact that Haves was either by himself or by his friends. or by both, a party in every sense of the word to an agreement whereby the sup port of his claims to the Presidency was to be rewarded or paid for by the re moval of the troops, ns it wus. in fact. rewarded or paid for." ON TO THE NOH'lHWIiHT. Hlops ... bon marcue ... POWELL S SNIDER'S. Convention to he Called on Julv is. Nbw Orleans, July 10. Gov. Foster will today issue a proclamation through the press calling a meeting of the mem bers of all the levee boards of the state, the levee boards of Arkansas and Mis sissippi and the United States engineers having in charge the levees in the Missis sippi valley. The meeting will be held July 12 at tbe State capitol, Baton Kouge. Tbe announcement of the governor s action caused considerable comment. The purposed meeting is to discuss a plan lor the protection ol the alluvial lands of the valley. Governor Foster is in favor of a general levee system, and it is believed be has determined to call a convention in order to forestall the meet ing of the planters favoring the outlet theory for protection against overflow disasters. I be outlet tberoists convene in August. Hecrelary Hoke Smith Awtille in cblcaico. Chicago, June 10.
