yesterday afternoon. The prisonors
were in a good humor during the trip
and Rceuied to enjoy the cushioned
scats of tho passenger coaches In
which they rode tho Hrst two days
and nights of their journiy "On to
Washln if ton" having been mado In coal
cars. The men wero packed In tho
coaches like sardines but that did not
worry them. They slept soundly all
night l)ii t were up with the sun how-
ever and sang commonweal songs to
the people who had githered at the
stations to scothe train go by.
At Ilolsington the train stopped n
few minutes and n barrel of hard
boiled eggs n barrel of biscuits and n
barrel of eolTeu were distributed
among thu prisoners. This made them
icjoice exceedingly. '1 hey sung songs
about Marshal- Neeiy calling him

li. C. Clemens tlie Topelca Socialist
ex-Adjutant General Art and other
agittitors wore present but they did
not have an opportunity tj talk with
tho prisoners us no one was allowed
ou tlie train. Clemens c.illed loudly
for (Jener.il banders but tho ex-commander
wab at the time engaged in
talking finance with Mr. Waggoner in
Superintendent Clark's private car and
did not tespond. Tho crowd soon lo-
cated him however and surged to the.
rear of tho train where tho car stood
and began to shout "bander-.! banders!-'
At Mr. Waggoner's suggestion
it ncral K.iudcrs st -ppjd out upon the
platform. The crowd cheered and the
general said:
"Ladles and gentlemen: I am a
prisoner of war in tho hands of my
captors L'nder tho circumstances it
is "hardly proper for mo to aldross
you. However l am graieiiu ior mis
ovation. It shows that tho common-
wealers as wo aro all have some
friends In Kansas."
Marslml Needy kept tho prisoners
locked in the cars for u while in hope
of receiving an answer to a telegram
sent early In the day to Attorney
General Olney asking for permission
to take the men to Tort Leavenworth
but no reply had come at 3 o'clock
and tho commonwcaler.i were ordered
into camp .lust before leaving the
cars thu men wero admonished by
General San lers not to pay any at-
tention to agitators who might enter
thccamp for the purpose of stirring
up trouble.
llio Wi-aler In Cum p.
Tho army was divided into seven
companies each designated by a largo
American Hag. The camp extended
over an area of about live ucres of
grassy bottom land owned by thu
railroad company. Tho camp was
surrounded by deputy marshals who
had Instructions to keep tho peoplo
out but they might as well hivo tried
to keep out the air. The pjoplo uroiso
into tho camp and alke I with the
prisoners in spite of tho guards.
Marshal Neely ordered a supply of
food for the men and a committee
hooded by Frank P. MacLonnon.cdltor
of the State Journal collected enough
food bv tl o'clock to feed two such
armies." Marshal Neely also secured
touts from the stitc for tho nso of tho
prisoners. The tents wero pitched
under tho direction of Adjutant Gen-
erul Divis mid tho men were soon In
comfortable quarters. A largo tank
on tho ground furnished an.abundanco
of water and a general bath was in-
dulged in a tout having been pitched
for that purpose. Tho men say It vv as
tho first good bath thoy had taken
since they had left Cripple Civek.
Most of tho prisoners ate miners
although there are several locomotive
engineers unit meciianics in mo imii-.
There uro also u few artists and musi-
cians and onu school teuclier was
fouud.
The train was so badly crowded nt
Scott City that fifty eoinmouwonlcrs
wero left with a deputy marshal.
They will come in later. A few of
tho men loft the train at Scott City
lint no effort was mado to tvoapturo
them. General Sanders says that 3s0

tho fifty now on tho road makes tha

plaints of firemen against Chief Sar-
gent tho lattor having refused to
sanction a strike on tho Chicago t ml
ICastern Illinois after the firemen had
voted almost unanimously in favor

A little diversion In the meeting
was the reading of the published state-
ments nbout a S100 000 shortage In the
Jtrotherhood funds and another
about a big row between chief S ir-
gcut and Secretary -Treasurer Arnold
when the latter demanded to know
what had become of the funds. The
olllcers believe tiie-e stories were in-
stigated by disgruntle I members of
tiio order who now pretend loyalty to
the American railway niron. Tho
fact is tho strike fun 1 never reached
but $(VJ000 and was in charge of
Chairman Hiues of the grand trustees.

IliiooKnrct.n Mo. May 12. i'hls
county was in a fever of excitement
yesterday caused b ono of the most
diabolical crimes over committed in
this portion of the slate. Gus Mecks
his wife and two children little gills
were murdered iu cold blood Thursday
night and their holies thrown iu a
straw stack for cone 'alment.
William P. Taylor of Ilrownlng a
town lu tho Korthe1 n po-tion of this
Linn county. Is n lawyer and banker
nnd up to the daj of tho murder
was cashier. He lint for the past four
or live years been arrested several
times on different charges. Last fall
he and Meeks the murdered man
were arrested on a rhurgo of stealing
a herd of cattle from n farmer's pas-
ture and driving them to Purdin
where It Is claini"d. it was their in-
tention to ship to Chicago In the
night. Mecks lidd his trial and was
sentenced to tho penitentiary. Tay-
lor gave bond and h.s trial was put
off and was to come up iu Milan next
week at the Sullivan county circuit
court. While in the penitentiary
Meeks turned state's evidence was
pardoned and came home nnd has
slneo lived at Milan with his mother
and family. Ho would of course have
been a dangerous wltucss against
Taylor.
Thursday night William Taylor nnd
his brother George a farmer living
near llrowuing drove to Milan a dis-
tance of twelve miles iu a two-seated
buggy. It seems that tho Taylor
In others wont to the home of Meeks
and culled him outside tho house.
Meeks went back Intitlu house after
awhile and told his family he was
going away to leave the country and
that tho Taylors were going to assist
him and then the wife said "1 mid the
children will go with mi Gus." They
all trot reaily nnd left with the
Taylois so the child said yesterday
George Taylor is a prosperous farm-
er living throe miles from Ilrownlng.
Yesterday morning a little 7-year-old
girl crawled out of a straw stack on
the Taylor farm mid went across tho
road to the farm house of Mr. Goooh.
bhe plttifully told her ttory of how
she was awakened tho niglit before
while riding along In her father's
arms of how she heard revolvers go
off mid her patents scream. Then
something hit her on tho head and
she said she went to sleep she gucsed
and when sho invoke she was in tho
hay-stack. There was blood ou her
clothing and a bruise ou her head.
Iteforo sho had finished telling her
sorrowful story George Taylor at 0
o'cloek In the morning was seeu ap-
proaching the straw stack with a team
and harrow and begin harrowing
around the stack. Tlie susplclca of
the Goooh family was aroused and
they went out mid told Taylor tho
story of tho little girl. Taylor nt
once unhitched the team and 'mount-
ing one horse rode off on the run
toward Ilrownlng. He went to Hanker
Taylor's houiu in llrowuing.und about
7 o'clock the Taylor brothers wero
seen riding out of town ou horseback
going eastward.
The bodies of Gus Sleeks his wlfo
and two children wero found iu the
Btraw stack and upon an Inquest bo-
ing held It was found that the father
and mother had both been shot and
then beaten with some weapon or
club.
Although tho Taylors left about 7
o'clock yesterday morning nobody
went In pursuit of them until after-
noon. About that t'.me Prosecuting
Attorney ltrcsuahan and Marshal
Crithfleld of this city were Informed
and a posse was fo 'uied iu this city
going northeast wl h a view to head
ing ou tho fugitivis. Mictiicr tliey
will be captured remains to be scon.
At this hour nothing has been heard
from tho pursuers and pursued. If
they rench tho Macon county line they
w ill bo In rough timber country and
stand a good show of getting aw a v.
If they are caught short work will
certainly be made of them.
Tho fanners from the entire north-
ern portion of the country have gono
out in pursuit and largo rewards will
be offered If they aro not caught soon.
Kxcltoment is at a high pitch us It is
the most diabolical crime over com-
mitted In this part of Missouri.
Ilrownlng is h live little town of
about 1000 people. For home time
past there has been a sort of feud
there between tho two banks ono of
which wan Tujlor's originally belong-
ing to Morgan Lconnrd capitalist mid
farmer highly respected who illcu
tho past year.'loaving the bank in tho
bauds of Taylor his son-in-law. Tho
first erimo Taylor was arrested for
some threo years ago was on a charge
of raising a check that passed through
his bank mid a bank at Kirksville.
Kver since that tlmo Taylor although
acquitted of that charge has been
mure or less under a cloud.

that tho alleged claim of the Clio taws
