POLICE FRAME UP
TO CENSORIZE NEWS
It is expected that the board of po-
lico commissioners, at Its regular
meeting next Tuesday night, will con
sider some feasible plan for the cen
soring of news issuing from the police
department to the local.newspapers.
Chief cf Police Jennings is very much
in favor of such a plan, and, it is un
derstood, will bring It to the attention
of the commissioners.
There has been considerable discus
sion of lute concerning the giving out
of news at the police station, and Chief
Jennings is anxious to systematize tho
problem. It is said that news has been
furnished the press at times In regard
“to oases being worked by the officers
that has proved injurious to the* cases.
The matter reached a climax Sunday,
when a story was published concern
ing the solution of the mystery veiling
the murder of Policeman Albert nine
years ago. This case was being work
ed by the detective department and be
fore it was completed the story was
published. This publication Ih said to
have interfered with the case.

About-9 o’clock Mayor Boyden called

blank cartridges, having no orders to
shoot to kill.

move—the mob lacking a leader. While
thev were appealing to the mob, two
men /dipped through the crowd and
were entering the Jail, when discovered
and arrested.
Mob Reinforced.
At 10 o'clock there was a stir In tho
mob—It was augmented by fully five
hundred men, who came, It is said,
from Whitney. It was but a few min
utes after their arrival when n crowd
of fifty, forming a sort of flying wedge,
mndo o break for the Jail doors, over
powered the officers, nnd effected an
entrance. The crowd outside surged In
behind the leaders, and In a few min
utes more merged from the door with
thclr victims, who were quietly march
ed to Henderson’s ball ground in the
edge of town. There the negroes wen?
given time to confess the crime.
Did Not Confess.
They refused to either deny or con
fess and were so thoroughly frightened
as almost to havef lost the power of
speech. John GUIesple wept piteously
and begged for his life. Tiring of its
efforts to secure statements from the
negroes, at midnight the ropes were
oulrkly brought forward and adjusted
and the three were strung up to the
limbs of one tree, and with howls and
ureas the crowd riddled the dangling
bodies with bullets.
George Ervin was taken from the
Jail with his associates and closely
questioned. Then the mob led him
back to his cell. Neese Gillespie main
tained his Innocence to the end. The
other two would neither confess nor
deny the crime.
Governor Glenn Notified.
Governor Glenn w as at 11:10 o’clock
told of the mob by Judge Long over
the telephone. He at once wired orders
to the military companies at Charlotte.

Judge Long called to order the second

throe prisoners placed on trVal yes

The excitement wns intense/ and al
though the court was convened over
an hour later than usual, many sat

court Judge Long first ordered every

minutes in carrying out the order of
the’judge, while a strange silence per
vaded the room. The* judge next or
dered tho sheriff to call the grand
Jury Into court. Sheriff Julian waa so
under the Influence of some powerful
emotion that he appeared to speak
with difficulty. In fact, the aged sher
iff seemed almost overcome. Solicitor
Hnmmon then announced that he
would ask for a continuance of tho
case against Henry Gillespie. Della
Dinllngham and George Erwin. Next
the solicitor asked that the case be
continued from day to day, as the
prisoners were In the Charlotte jail

The Judge said In his new charge to
the grand Jury that he believed there
were still good people In Rowan and
that he would like for them to be in
attendance upon the court from day
to day. He said, however, that if there
were citizens present as was the case
last night. It would be better thnt
they keep away from the court. He
told the grand Jury that he would
want them to remain with him longer
than usual nnd that he would talk to
them later on an Important matter.
"God Almighty still reigns,” said the
Judge, "and this court will not adjourn
until this affair of last night Is inves
tigated.”
