Mnrpbysboro, III,, tor an Old Mnrdsr.
Murphysboro, 111., June 1.—Douglas
Henderson and Frank Jeffrey were
hanged here at 8:17 o’clock this morn
ing for the murder of ,Tames Towle at
Cartervtlie last winter. Henderson
mounted the gallows moklng a cigar,
puffing it as coolly as a campaign ora
tor. Before the black cap was drawn
over his face he made this little speech:
“Gentlemen: I am here to tell you good
bye. I hope I shall meet you In heaven.
I want to warn you all to keep out of
bad company.”
His voice was very strong and clear.
Jeffrey was not so cool and showed
signs of nervousness, but both mounted
the scaffold without effort. Jeffrey also
spoke, saying: "I am going to die for a
crime I never committed. 1 never done
It.”
The preparations for the execution
were then quickly completed, the trap
sprung and In twelve minutes the con
demned men were pronounced dead.
Jeffrey's neck was broken, but Hender
son died of strangulation. The bodies
were sent to Cartervllie, the home of
the men, where they were burled.

GOV. MORTON’S ILLNESS.
Chauncey Depew Says It May Take
Rim Oat of the Presidential Field.
New York, Juse 1.—Chauncey M. De
pew was much affected when he heard
of Gov. Morton being overcome by the
heat. He was aBked whether It would
have any effect upon Gov. Morton's
presidential aspirations.
"It may have,” said Mr. Depew. "In
deed. It probably will. The case is very
analogous to that of Mr. Blaine, who
had a sunstroke, If you will remember,
In 1876 on Pennsylvania avenue, Wash
ington, and that sunstroke was the be
ginning of all his physical troubles. Be
fore that he had been a strong and vig
orous man. I hope that this will prove
to have been nothing but a slight weak
ness brought on by the heat, but at the
governor’s age It may prove serious.”

WASHINGTON DOBS HONOR TO
THE DEAD SECRETARY.
Eanwat bnlm Bald at the VbHi

oa ThaU Way to Chicago.
Washington, May SO.—Before I o'clock
this morning the floral tributes to the
distinguished dead began to arrive at
the old Pomeroy hQusn overlooking La*
(ayette square, now aa annex to the Ar
lington, in which the remains of the
secretary of state lay. Only a few
pieces, however, v*re received there.
Most of them were sent to the White
House, where the services were to be
•eld. The casket lay In the drawing-room
looking out upon the public square.
Secretary and Mrs. Latnont, First As
sistant Postmaster-General Jones, ex
Secretary of the Treasury Bristow and
Mrs. Bristow and a few other Intimate
friends were with the sorrowing and
stricken family. Mrs. Gresham, broken
In spirit, exhausted by her long vigils
and overcome with grief, was In such a
nervous state that her daughter and
ion prevailed upon her not to under
take the trying ordeal of attending the
services at the White House. At 8:80
b’clock, therefore, the doors were all
closed, and the stricken family was left
alone with their dead. For almost thir
ty minutes they remained, taking their
last leave. Then the bugle commands
floated across the square as the horses
k tne yeliow-tasseled cavalry, the lum
bering caissons of the red artillery and
the blue-coated foot soldiers, the mili
tary escort, were drawn up Into lines
alone Pennsylvania avenue.
At 9 o’clock the doors to the room
where the remains lay were opened,
and the family retired to the rear
apartments. Mrs. Oresham, In an agony
bf grief, was almost carried from the
room by her stalwart son, Otto, and was
followed by her daughter, Mrs. An
drews, leaning on the arm of Mr. An
drews, and Mrs. McGraln and Capt.
Fuller. Mrs. Carlisle and other ladles
of the cabinet arrived and offered such
words of condolence as they could.
Soon after the carriages, containing
the members of the cabinet, began ar
riving. Secretary Carlisle, Acting Sec
retary Uhl, Attorney-General Olney and
Secretary Herbert drove up In the order
oamed. At 9:15 President Cleveland ar
rived In the White House carriage, ac
companied by Col. Wilson. The Pres
ident looked far from well and ascended
the brown-stone steps with some diffi
culty. A moment later Secretary Mor
ton and Postmaster General Wilson ar
rived In their carriages, followed by
Secretary Smith on foot. The casket
had been closed and the President and
members of his cabinet were given no
opportunity to view the remains.
At exactly 9:30 o'clock five red-ooated
trumpeters marched up Lafayette place
and Btationed themselves outside the
line of mounted police to give the sig
nal when the cortege departed. Thirty
eeconds later the hearse, drawn by two
coal black horses, drew up at the door.
' The president, followed by members of
the cabinet In the order of their rank,
ictlng as honorary pallbearers, descend
ed the steps and stood with uncovered
heads while the eight artillerymen car
ried the casket with slow and solemn
tread between them. The casket was
shrouded completely In the folds of the
American flag. The stars and stripes
could hardly be discerned for the flow
ers banked upon the casket. The artil
lerymen walked beside the hearse as It
drew away, halting at the corner until
the president and members of his offi
cial family In their carriages had tak
en their positions ahead. Acting Secre
tary Uhl was with Mr. Cleveland, Sec
retary Carlisle was alone and Secre
taries Herbert and Lamont, Attorney
General Olney and Postmaster-General
Wilson, Secretaries Smith and Morton,
»nd First Assistant Postmaster-General
tones and ex-Secretary Bristow fol
lowed In the order named. Bishop
Hurst, who arrived at this moment In
bis carriage, followed the hearse; Mr.
and Mrs. Andrews, Otto Gresham and
Captaln^Fuller followed. Mrs. Carlisle,
Mrs. Lamont, Mrs. Bristow, the wife of
“.he ex-secretary; Mrs. McGraln. Mrs.
Gresham’s sister, and several other close
friends remained behind with Mrs.
Gresham.
The fvneral procession, preceded by
i squad of mounted police, moved slow
ly to the entrance of the white house
grounds.
The casket, preceded by the president
and cabinet, was borne by the artillery
men to the east room, where the serv
ice took place. Seats were reserved for
the immediate kinsfolk and relatives of
the dead man, for the president and
Mrs. Cleveland and for the members of
the cabinet and their wives. Within
this solemn, black-robed circle, stood
the standards for the catafalque, rest
ing on a large blac! seal rug. By 10:45
the vast east root,, was nearly filled.
The seating arrangements were
perfect. The remainder of the diplo
matic corps came along very rapidly.
Sir Julian Pauncefote. the British am
bassador, with his wife and daughter,
oreceded Ambassador Patenotre, who
was accompanied by his wife. Then
followed the Italian ambassador and
Baron von Kettler, who is acting as the
German ambassador, with full suites.
All of the members of the diplomatic
body were apparently in attendance,
with the exception of Minister Wecker
<in of the Netherlands, who Is absent
from Washington. The members of the
supreme court came In singly and were
seated on the left of th'e catafalque.
Mr. Thurber, the president's private sec
retary, gave the assistance of his arm
to Justice Field, who was very feeble.
Tust In the rear of the diplomatic body
In the center of the chamber were seat
ed general officers of the army and navy
with their ladies.
The funeral cqmmonles were brief
and formal, consisting merely of read
ing the service of the Methodist Epis
:opa! church by Bishop Hurst, the sing
ing of a hymn and the uttering of a
orayer. Not a syllable was said beyond
that.
Pennsylvania avenue, from the war,
navy and state department west of the
White House, clear down to the Peace
monument, under the shadow of the
iome of the capttol, was densely crowd
ed with people on foot and In carriages
»nd through this multitude the cortege
slowly moved from the White House to
the railroad station. Ten thousand peo
ple assembled at the Baltimore * Ohio
station, and aa the train tearing the
funeral party pulled out of the depot
many a tear waa ahed. President Cleve
land made the imperative stipulation
that no newspaper men should go on
the special funeral train. Outalde of
the President, cabinet officers and im
mediate relatives there was nobody In
the party excepting John \V. Doane of
Chicago, and First Assistant Postmas
ter General Jones.

He was chairman of the republican
committee six years ago.
The convention was called to order
at 3 o'clock by Colonel Joseph C. Bon
ner, chairman of the state committee.
Senator Sherman was given a rous
ing ovation when he was escorted Into
the hall at 3:60 by Congressman Van
Voorhls and Judge Grander. He was
Introduced as temporary presiding offi
cer of the convention and on taking the
chair made a stirring speech In favor
of a gold coinage and the polley of pro
tection.
At the conclusion of the senator's
speech a committee on resolutions was
appointed and afterward organised,
with ex-Secretary Charles Foster as
chairman. The convention then ad
journed to 8 p. m. On reassembling the

tective tariff, fair elections, honest
money, consisting of gold, silver, and
paper, every dollar as good as any other
dollar, and all backed by the national
faith and honor. On the money ques
tion It says:
"We favor bimetallism and demand
the use of both gold and silver as stan
dard money, either In accordance with
a ratio to be fixed by an International
agreement, if that can be obtained, or
under such restrictions and such pro
visions, to be determined by legislation,
as will secure the maintenance of the
parity of values of the two metals, so
that the purchasing and debt-paying
power of the dollar, whether of silver,
gold, or paper, shall be at all times
equal.” ,

vacillating course has brought us dis
tress at home and humiliation abroad.”

sent William McKinley to the Repub
licans of the nation as a candidate for
the nomination for president In 1896, and
we,pledge him the absolute and un j
swerving support of Ohio at the next na
tional convention.
"We have heard with great sorrow of
the sudden and untimely death of Hon.
Walter Q. Gresham, late secretary of
state, and we extend to his bereaved
family our sympathy and condolence."
