NEGRO IS BURNED AT STAKE

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.

Another great discovery has been made ,
nd that , too , by a , lady In this country.
DUease fastened Us clutches uoon her and
or eoven years she withstood Its severest

nd death seemed Imminent. For three
months she coughed Incessantly and could

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. "

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. The
season opens up this year more encourag
ingly than ever before , nnd the conditions of
prosperity prevailing everywhere are causes
for appreciation by all southern railroad
men , "
