NEGRO IS BURNED AT STAKE Citizen * Mi-tc Out 1'roiupt Jimtlcc to Lnilfiro , AVIio CnnfcnncN to the 31urdur ut u 1'niiill } . MEMPHIS , Tcnn. , Get 20. A special to the Scimitar Irom Canton , Mlsa , says : The llttlo town of St. Anne , In Leake county , was last night the scene of < i horrible tragedy , a sequel to the burning of the Oambrell family tno night before. Joe La- flore , a negro who was captured by a posse , confessed that he. In company ttlth other negroes , had tied Mrs. Gambrell and her four children to the floor of the house , sat urated the aurroundlugs with kerosene and burned the unfortunate people alive. The negro , after the confession of the awful crime , nas promptly roped to a stake and burned to a crlep , while the citizens looked on In grim alienee. Another negro , Bob Anderson , ivas saved Just In the nick of tlmo , as some doubt ex isted as to his guilt. The Gambrell tragedy occurred early Thursday morning and It wa first thought that the flro was the result of accident. A casual Investigation revealed circumstances so suspicious that a more searching Investi gation ! \aa made and it was noon estab lished beyond doubt that the family had been murdered and the house flrcdvlth the torch of an Incendiary. Posses V.ITO Immediately formed to scour the country and followed every possible clue Dcforo the posse left St. Anne It was dis covered that Joe Laflore , a negro \\ho lived In the neighborhood and who had hereto fore borne a good reputation , had disap peared. Early last evening Laflore was cap tured several miles from the scene of the murder. At first the negro vigorously de nied any knowledge of the crime1 , but he finally broke down completely and confessed that ho and Bob Smith and Andrew Smith , two other negroes , had done the dastardly -work. Ho hoped for no mercy and told \\lth n brutal frankness all the details of the crlmo. His captors were stupefied at the revelation. In the yard where the Gambrell residence had stood Lafloro was tlod to a stake am burned alive. No one sent a merciful btillel Into his body to kill him. Andrew Smith es caped from the mob while. Laflore was being burned and hoa not yet been captured. Hob Smith "nas tied to another stake and n flro started , though he was finally released , as there wan a possibility of his proving his Innocence. Andruw Smith -will bo recaptured and If It IB proved that ho and his brother Bob are guilty It Is thought that no power can save them from a similar fate to that meted ou to Laflore.

HOW THE TEXAS SCHEDULE WAS LOWERED Cornell nft H on 11 It of Moutlicnutcru Con- tropr j jcnllincitt for Arbi tration Ine-rciiHliiK Iti Knii- nnn Ult ) nitil Oninhii. The tumbling of rates on packlng-houso products to Texas points has acted as a quickening force to the fervency of local railroad offlclals , especially of the freight departments In hoping for an arbitration of the differential squabble. Telegraphic ad vices from Kansas City to The Bco brought the announcement that the Kansas City , Plttsburg & Gulf had taken the Initiative by cutting the rate to Beaumont , Houston and Galvraton from 55 cents to 42 cents. Had this been the cnsc , the Gulf line would re ceive credit for taking up the light for Kan sas City , now being waged by the Memphis line Such , honeAer , wna not actually the condition. The cut came ns a natural result t the reductions In the rates to Memphis , ansag City shippers to Texas points found iat they could bill their products , through Icmphls and New Orleans , and thence to exas points , for 42 cents , by taking ad antnge of the reductions to Memphis and ddlng the combination of locals from there o points of deatlnatton. The same condition xlsts in Omaha , and shippers to Houston nd Oalve ton , by hilling their shipments la New Orleans , get a rate of 45 cents , This being the case , the railroads merely doptcd the rate made by this combination f locals for through business and dlrec tiling. The Gulf llnev however , has slnco taken nothcr step and announced that cffectlv ) ctober 22 Us rate from Kan js City to louston and Galvcston will bo 39 cents This will make a differential of C cents be ween Kansas City and Omaha , unless thi Missouri Pacific , Uock Island and o he oads operating in Texas territory maki a reduction of 3 cents , In order to prescrv a 3-ccnt differential ns between Kansas City and Omaha. Traffic men generally deplore the spreai of this controversy ajid they are looking orward anxiously to an early adjustment o ho dldlculty along sonic lines satisfactory o the contending factions. Local official nalntaln that If the war continues mucli onger It will eventually lead to a revision of the entire packing house rate to south eastern and southwestern territory , Tor thl reason they will hall with Joy the announce inent of a truce. Arbitration SccmitcccnNurj. . Arbitration seams to be the only solution of the matter. The Burlington Insists that t cannot bo whipped Into line to reverse tselt on a stand which it took because t considered the action an equitable , right and honorable one. Nevertheless , a continu ance of the fight seems unavailing and con servative opinion holds that no railroad is ustifled in antagonizing its patronizing nterests when there seems to be no possi- ) illty of a successful outcome Kansas Cltj , oo , is tiring of the fight. To conservative business imi > n the term "boycott" Is re- lugnant. The commercial interests are not olnlng as heartily In the opposition against ho Burlington as one might be led to ba- love , but there is a sufficient array to in dicate that the fight -will bo of long stand- ng unless some speedy action is taken. The act that the rate war la spreading also gives rise to a strong sentiment in favor of a ceeaatlon of hostilities. In Kansas City the conservative opinion Is > est reflected by the Kansas City Journal , n its issue of Thursday the following slgnl- Icant paragraph appears , which shows that < ansas City business and railroad Interests nro not unlike Omaha in the desire for ar- jitratlon : "The commercial Interests of Kansas City and the Burlington road have both gone t > o far in the matter that It Is out of the ques tion to expect either to recede ; In fact , Kan sas City cannot recede from Its position without Icelng caste , and the same can be said of the Burlington , and for that reason : he desire to submit the matter to arbitra tion Is growing , the suggestion being en dorsed by many of the leading commercial men of Kansas City. H is the only way to settle it anil that It will be eventually adopted there is little doubt. All It needs is for some disinterested party to step Into the breach and bring the opposing factions together. " KOAIJS raosi-nuous. l"relKht and 1'nMweiiKrr tlv en SiietiU Ed Keano of St. Louis , assistant general freight agent of the Baltimore & Ohio South western railway , Is in the city visiting a number of frlende and looking after busi ness. "In St. Louis and throughout the cn- tlro southwestern region , " said Mr. Kcane , "we are enjoying an unprecedented busi ness. But then that is not a matter of news , as the fiamo conditions prevail over the entire - tire country. Freight shipments are enor mous , nnd wo are experiencing the same famine of cars in our region as the railroads in this section. Railroad men of course are eorry to bo unable to handle their patronage as rapidly on the conditions demand , but we would rather have n famine than a fcaet when It comes to the freight car situation. " It. C. Cowardln , western passenger agent at St. Louts of the Nashville , Chattanooga & St. Louis railway , who is in the city , Is distinctly n railroad product of the south. His homo for years has been in Tennpsaeo , where ho was born , and hie railroad experi ence dates from the early 'CDs , when he was running a train on the Louisville & Nash ville , Tor the last thirty-one years he has been connected with the Nashville , Chatta- ncoga & St. Louis , "Our road , " ald Mr. Cowardln , "does tha bulk of Its business In the winter time , when northern people are seeking the sunny clime of the south.
