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.

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.

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.

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.
