Brutality of a Louisiana Mob.
Lafayette, La., September 11.—A
brutal murder was committed six miles
from this place on the Abbeville road
Monday night. Near the roadside stood
a small cabin and in this lay the muti-lated
bodies of Rosemond Cormier, col-ored,
and his daughter, Rosalie, aged 15.
The following particulars were elicited at
the coroner’s inquest: Rosemond, who
was over 60 years of age, was w hipped
and ordered to leave home months ago
by a band of regulators and failing to
obey, met an untimely end Monday
night. It appears that about 10 o’clock
a party of masked men rode up to his
house and demanded addmittance, and
on being refused broke down the door.
The old man fired both barrels of a shot-gun
into the crowd, killing a white man
named John Justice. Rosemond then
fled, pursued by the now enraged party,
who fired repeatedly at the fugitive.
They overtook him about 200 yards from
the house and blew’ the back part of his
head off and then crushed in the frontal
bone by blow’s with their guns. The
body of Rosalie lay stretched in front of
the cabin this morning with her throat
cut from ear to ear. The little cabin was
riddled with bullets from Winchester
rifles and smaller arms, about 200 balls
having been fired into it. As the cabin
was an isolated one, the coroner’s jury
could find no evidence in criminating
any one. The body of masked men who
murdered Rosemond and his daughter
numbered about thirty. The regulators
before reaching Cormier’s house severely
wdiipped two negroes, Lueien Mont-gomery
and Joseph, alias Toby Cobb.
The Mississippi Race Troubles.
St. Louis, September 11.—A dispatch
from Coffeyville, Miss., says the trouble
in LeFlore and Tallahatchie counties,
wdiich was supposed to have been set-tied,
is yet menacing. The latest reports
from those counties estimates the total
number of dead negro insurrectionists at
seventy-five. At a reunion of Mississ-ippi
soldiers held at Winona, speeches
were made by Senators Walthall and
George, in which they w’arned the peo-pie
of the South about being hasty in
dealing with the negroes, and anticipat-ing
further serious trouble with that race
in the delta.
Sunset Cox’s Funeral.
New’ York, September 11.—The fune-ral
of the late S. S. Cox will take place
at 10 o’clock next Friday morning. It
has not yet been decided in what church
the services will be held, neither have
the pall-bearers been selected. The clerk
of the house of representatives has ap-pointed
the following named representa-tives
as a committee to take charge of
the funeral arrangements of the late
member of that body : Carlisle, Randall,
Holmann, Felix, Campbell, Zenv,Heard,
Muchler, Kelly, McKinley, Cannon,
Reed, Burrows and O’Neil, of Pennsyl-vania.
The Gettysburg Dedication.
Gettysburg, Pa., September 11.—This
is a day devoted to the special dedica-tion
of Pennsylvania monuments by the
respective regiments. During the day

line and headed by a band or drum corps
marched to their monument where ex-ercises
were held. The dedication was
