Kansas Crimes. THE BENDEB UBiTEUBD A SEQUEL- A FROM TUX EiBLT H1STOBT OT IJCAVENWOBTH CITY— S. M. in San Francisco Bulletin. On© warm, moonlight Friday evening in June, 1857, I sat, with Colonel Elias S. Den nis, on the doorstep of a certain law office in Leavenworth, Kansas. We were both United States Government officials, and, both com ing from Illinois, were therefore “clannish” toward each other. He was the United States Marshal of the Territory, and I was— well, no matter what As we were smoking and talking idly about this, that or anything else, a friend came trotting along, who hur riedly asked us if we had seen a man rush by. “Yes,” we told him, “and he turned round the next corner on the opposite side of the street’* “because,” said he, “he has killed a mau at the spring near the Planters 5 Iloase;” and he himself then started off on a run. We were but a block or two away from the Planters’ House. The hotel was situated al most close to the west bank of the Missouri, and very near the steamboat landing. Quite a short distance from it within & few rods of ■ river, was a spring. A icahJe servant of kptelhad, after di^fiiC* taken a tin pail »heard groans from the etion of the stream; then laid down her pail, and silently, without a Blight scream even, hastened to her kitchen with an alarm. In a few minntes a number of men gathered at the spot to see a poor creature endeavoring to crawl out of tho water to dry land. He was tenderly drawn out, but, attempting to point to a stab between his shoulders, gasped twice and died. When Colouel Dennis and myself arrived at the scene of the murder, a number of gen tlemen and others had seen some one ran, with extended foot-prints, away. Another fellow had been caught concealing gold coin underneath the contiguous rock. And still another had been captnred, who was found lurking suspiciously in the neighborhood. In the lapse of time since then, many interven ing events have excluded the names of the three parties referred to from my memory. The first wretch mentioned, however, carried, I am rather sure, the name of Daly. The ether two, for the purpose of convenience in this narrative. I will name respectively, Pen nyroyal and Bottle; bnt with no intent, even the most remote, to reflect upon any family who may possibly bear the cognomen of eith er, and equally as assuredly not to make mockery of the tragedy and the graveyard business concerning which I now write. The history of this immediate affair was this: A laboring man bad come up to Leaven worth from Kansas City, with $193 in his pocket He encountered, at bis landing, Daly, who took him to see Mrs. Daly to have a quiet drink with her. After remaining drugged for awhile in “ the place,” but where, however, be did not entirely lose his senses, he was invited by his host to accom pany him and two friends down to a spring near the water’s edge, where they could drink cold water, and bathe their heads aud become sober again. Reaching the spring, Daly stooped down and sucked in the fluid with Lis lips, then Pennyroyal, then Bottle, then the dazed stranger. As soon as bis lips touched tLe water, a blow with a loaded cane iu the hands of Daly knocked him senseless. A stab with a Urge dirk knife in the hands of Pennyroyal gave him, between the shoulders, his mortal wound. The three then tossed him into the Missouri. He was crawling ont, groaning, when the self-possessed servant girl hastened back silently to the hotel to bring him relief. The store rooms of the Planters' House, the Shaw nee House, and of the International were at that time piled up witn luggage unclaimed by guests from “everywhere,” who had unac countably disappeared, and, after leaving either hotel, who had never after been heard of. Free State men, and pro-slaveryites alike vent the mysterious way. Bodies of unknown men were quite frequently found in the yellow flow of the Missouri before they reached the Mississippi. Everybody was convinced that the murders were not the result of the feuds between the two great rival and vindictive parties of the territory. This Planters’ House spring assassination startled the city into a horrible suspicion. Daly was arrested imme diately. There was not much sleep in town th it short moonlight night. When morning caoie Bottle was taken by a selected number of inhabitants to an island midway in the stream, a rope, swung over a limb of a cotton w^od, w.is put around his neck. It was then demanded of him that he confess his other Crimes, and reveal the names of his confeder ates. Although in such an awful predica ment, he absolutely refused. Without more ado he was strung up some live or six feet from the ground and left dang ling for awhile. He managed, however, not being bound, to reach the rope above him with his bands, which gave him of course con siderable relief. Presently ho was lowered to the eaith again, and again the previous de mand was made of him. He still stubbornly refused to answer any questions. He was now bound and hauled np the second time. After writhing in agony a very short time he was let down once more. He had the nerve to endure the terriblo torture a third time. Then, lying exhausted on the ground, he gave way. He would reveal everything, he ►aid, on the condition that he should be al lowed to escape. The boon was granted, stimulants afforded him, and he commenced practically hi« horrible revelations. PLANTED WITH CORPSES—PI a>XJC VX OPERATION. ••Come this way,” said he faintly; and taking the party to a certain spot on the island, he continued: “Dig down here.” Just below the snrface of the earth a corpse was found. “Now, corne here!” anil a short distance uway he again said: “Dig down here.” And another decomposed body was found. “Now come around this bend! Dig here.” And the third dead human being was un- earthed. “That’s all I know of here,*' said be. “We used to chuck most of them we killed into the river. When a gentleman was uncommonly well known we buried him. We had a man at each of the principal hotels to investigate new arrivals. Bat go with me now over to the brickyard near Leavenworth, and I’ll show you some more; and then I’ll tell you the names of the gang. At tho brickyard, the number of graves found ran a considerable way into the teens. The gang of cut-throats counted up, first and last, twenty-three. Some well-known citi zens, who had been considered respectable, were implicated iu the atrocious deeds. One named Woods, who kept a wood-yard eight miles below, and who had a good bank ac count in Smoot, Russell &. Co.’s bank, was captnred. All the others escaped. I tended to leave for a distant town on Satur day morning, but Col. Dennis—and neither of us went over to the island to witness the torture of Bottle—induced me to remain in the city until Monday. Woods had paid me, for service* rendered to another party, a snm of money in bank notes a couple of days tefore. It is now ascertained that he was not only a murderer, but the head of a gang of counterfeiters also. These two cir cumstances aided my friend’s entreaty. My bank notes were, however, genuine. There was but* one man in Leavenworth that day who did not share in the fearful exasperation of the remainder of the population. That man was Judge Lecompte, after whom the town of Lecompton was named. The jaibwas besiged, the sheriff defending it merely for the pur pose of doing his duty. Judge Lecompte harangued Die crowd, entreating earnestly that the prisoners might be brought before him lor trial. “ What!” exclaimed the old man Skaggs, a prominent citizen, and as ultra a pro-slavery man as the Judge himself: “What! before you* When did you ever let a man guilty of crime be convicted? Oh, go ! go ! and don’t stand up there like an antiqua ted fool, and make a ridiculous ass of your self. We all know you. Stop your blab, and put that pocket handkerchief to your nose in stead of your eyes, you contemptible old hy- ^ite.” And as Skaggs went on, the entire of the city, except, of course, GovernffiOiV **d judicial officials, cheered him uproariously at the close of every odg of his many pointed sentences. lynching the murderers. saying that Daly promised in return for the favor, to betray more secrets. The request was granted, and, under a strong guard, the wretch was conducted back to the jail. Now came Pennyroyal’s turn. He uttered no word, bnt resisted his captors with vicioos determination. As his feet left the earth, he clutched frantically at the rope overhead, and clung to it, as he dangled in the air several minntes. At length some one seized his feet, and, jerking him down, broke his neck. Daly, when safe in the jail again, thought himself secure this time, and laughed derisively at his previous captors. Within an hoar he was lying on the ground under the cottonwood tree beside Peonyroyal. Woods was taken that evening; but until morning was given him to settle up his affairs in this world. He was kept a close prisoner in the upper story of an old wooden structure, which was entered by means of a flight of rickerty stairs from the outside. The build ing was near the edge of tho river. Sun day camo and with it a lull in the excite ment Woods sent for mo early in the morning to assist other gentlemen in the drawing op of his will aud otherwise set tling his affairs on earth. I was with him until late in the afternoon The crowd below was boisterously threatening all the while, but it was danger to life lor a large number of persons to ascend the rickety stairs at once. The following morning I was as much Astonished as any one to learn that the officers of the law had succeeded in reaching him, in getting him out into a boat from the rear of the building, and in conveying him away to a safe place several miles above, at a place called Kickapoo. So the reader now knows why I call the Bender graveyard a sequel. — Graveyard Wit.—An Irishman who had been employed at the cemetery some time since, went to Washington to draw his pay. After receiving the amount the paymaster, discovering a sabre cot on his tace, remarked: “You were in the army during the war?” “Yes,” said ho. “What command were you in?” “In General Fitz Hugh Lee’s com mand. sir.” “Did you have the audacity to apply to a Federal cemetery for work when you were in the rebel army?” “Yes,” re plied the Irishman; “I helped kill them, so I thought I had a right to help bury them.” SUMMER RESORTS. _ ty, Georgia, will open for the reception of com pany June 1, 1873.
