Dexve, Col., January 19, —A dispatch from Ouray says that Michael Cuddigan and wife, who v nruelly murdered littlo May Rose Mathews, theiradopted daugh- ter, wero last night taken fromfa room in Delronico's Hotel, in which they were temporarily confined, and lynched. The | " work was done by an armed body of vig- ilantes, whoso plan of operations had been so well laid out that the sheriff’ and his men, who were guarding the prison- ers, were powerless to prevent the con- summation of the crime. Third street was well filled with pedestrians at the time the vigilantes forced their way into the hotel, but the lynchers had evaded notice by stealthily creeping up the alley, which runs parallel with the main street, until the hotel was reached. Then they boldly entered the hotel. Their sudden appearance in the street in front of Delmonico’'s did not cre- ato any oxcitemhnt, and it was not until after they had entered the building that, by the discharge of a pistol, the pedestrians in the street knew that any- thing unusual was going on. The shot was fired by Sherifl Rowles, who, upon the appearance of the mob, and its de- mand that Cuddigan and his wife be given up, ordered the vigilantes to leave the room. They refused to go, but quietly, but firmly, gave the sheriff to understand that they were determined to take the prisoners from him, and advised him not to interfere with them, THE SHERIFF OVERPOWERED, Sheriff Rowles defied them, and, with revolver in hand, bade them advance at their peril. The vigilantes then made a bold rush. They closed in upon him on all gides. The sheriff fought desperately and fired one shot. but with no apparent effect. Before he had an opportunity to shoot again the vigilantes, who had crept. in behind him, grasped him tightly, pinioned his arms and took his revolver away from him., He was then thrown upon the floor and held there by four powerful men while the remain- ing vigilantes secured the prisoners and prepared to take them from the room. Uuddi%:n and his wife knew well enough what the tramp of feet in the hallway of the hotel meant. Before the vigilantes had fully filled the room they began to cry with fear and to beg piteously for their lives. The mob paid no attention to themJuntil it had disposed of the sheriff. Then it bade them stop their whining as nothing. After Rowles had been secured, one of the vigilantes went to the door of the hotel to reconnoiter. Quite a number of persons had collected in Third street, but they did not seem to show any disposition to interfere. For that matter most of them were too dazed by the overwhalming boldness of the lynchers to realize the full horror of the scene which was about to be enacted. Deputy Sheriffs Vandever and Woodcock who were with Sheriffi Rowles, would have rendered assistanve, though it would have done mno good, they not henvshoed under the muzzle of a brace of Winchester rifles, and concluded doubtless that it would be folly for them to remain where they were. ~ They got away from the scene umg"dly as they could. No one blames them for it. They could have accomplished nothingb; remaining, The mob was determi and had they remained they would prob. ably have been killed. Rowles did not give in until he was completely exhaust- ed. It is believed that the vigilantes would have killed any other man who, made so desperate a fight to thwart them. Their respect for Rowles,coupled with their desire to shed no more blood :llpn was necessary, was all that saved im. IN THE HANDS OF THE MOB, It is surprising that there was not a terrible battle at the hotel at the time of the attack by the vigilantes. Two Broth. ers and a brother-in-law of Mrs. Cuddi- gan were in the hotel, and armed with self-acting Smith & Wesson's, The fact that they were armed would indicate that they feared an attempt would be made to tear Cuddigan and his wife from the officers and hang them, It therefore, somewhat remarkable th have i skill of Al they should have disappearkd on the en- R "”&fi;‘:fi?, trance of the vigilantes. Carrol, brother of Mrs. Cuddigan, was in the room with his sister and brother-i The vigi- lantes did not seem anxious to secure him, though they kept a sharp eye on him to prevent his escape. Cuddigan and his wife were the victims whom the lynchers sought. Finding that there was but little to be feared from the few peo- ple in the street without, the vigilantes | Ty, roceeded to carry out their programme, Km. Cuddigan was the first to be taken out. She was led into the street scorsely able to walk because of her awful fright, ::{nlng hysterically for lulg for the te to defend her. But her captors Were unmoy. ) 5 me; I am inno. oeat, God knows I am,” she screamed, but the masked men who held her fast answered not a word.

VAIN APFEALS TO THE VIGILANTES, A moment later Cuddigan and Carroll were brought out, than the woman, They ed and begged all in ene bu n{l in vain, They were told to cease their noise, and From the movement the vigilantes after leaving the hotel at once started toward themn.hnrnlm{;ol of it is clear that they had mnpfod the city, But a few frightened trians who were stand around the hotel followed. m, g their victims after them, ful l‘:‘u They for time, on moved in their inexorable .

Cuddigan and his wifowere taken to tue northern boundary of the city. ‘When Uncle Tommy Andrews’ cabin was reached the vigilantes, without order or spoken word, came to a halt. In fact, there were no orders given, All the men in tho great body of masked men seemed to act by preconcerted arrangement. The trembling Cuddigan and his wife realized that their end had come. The woman's wails and cries for meroy were louder and more pitiful than ever. The scene was a )u»rnh‘n one, Thedark- ness was lit up here and there by the firefly-like glare of a lantern, and the ris- ing moon cast a weird light over the awful scene. CuUpDIG There was no time lost. Ropes, which had before been carefully concealed, were suddenly brought to view. The very sight of them increased the terror of the victims, and their supplications for mercy were almost unearthly. ‘‘Say your prayers,” said one of the vigilantes, as in company with two of his comrades he *approached the trembling Cuddigan. re me, spare me! GGod save me!” Cuddigan, falling on his knees. “Did you spare littlo Mary Matthews?” asked one of the vigilantes. “T'm innocent. Save me. Don’t hang me,” wailed the miserable man, *‘Make your peace with God. time has come,” = 'hat was the only answer the vigilantes made. and poor Cuddigan began praying. It was a short shrift these relentless aven- gers gave him. The ropo was made fast around his neck, and with the air echoing and re-echoing with the cries of the vic- tim, they hanged him from the ridge pole of Uncle Tommy’s cabin., He struggled violently. His awful contortions were hidden by the darkness, and though had it;bee nbroad daylight tho vigilantes wovll not have been affected by his sufferings. HER BODY SWUNG FROM THE LIME OF A TREE, They were then busy placing the noose around the neck of Mrs. Cuddigan, Words cannot describe the scene, Imag- ine a woman in the hands of a mob of men who are actuated only by a desire to avenge the wrongs of a little child whom they honestly believed had met its death ab hor hands. They knew no mercy. Pity was notin them. Her face was ghastly in the breaking light of themorn, and under the yellow glare of the lan- tern’s flamo sho begged, sho prayed, she rovelled at their feet and seemed tohave ost all reason. Fear possessed her soul to the uttermost, but her awful agony did not affect her executioners, They stand by unmoved, those who were not engaged in preparing the rope turn- ing their heads from her white face and wild despair. The noose is now around her neck. She is to weak to walk. They carry her to a tall tree which looms up somberly against the heavens. It takes but a moment for strong hands to adjust the rope, and then the body of the poor woman swings convulsively in the air, Their work done, the vigilantes disap- peared, No one knew who organized or led the dreadful band of avengers, nor who composed it. CARROLL IN THE HANDS OF MASKED MEN., But to Carroll. When Cuddigan and his wife were led off toward Uncle Tommy's cabin Carroll was taken down Seventh avenue to Second street, and at a point opposite the Pacific house was placed in a buggy and driven off by masked men. It is impossible to learn whether or not he met a fate similar to that of his sister and her husband. If clemency has been shown him, it is be- cause there is some doubt as to the part he played in the murder of little Mary Mathews. It is claimed by him and his friends that he was absent at the time, and had been for some days previous to thegirl'sdeath, From the manner in which N MANGED PROM A RIDGE POLE, Your the vigilantes took Carroll off in a_dif- terent direction from that in which Cud- digan and his wife were taken, it is be- lieved by some that they had prepared a horrible punishment for him. It will not be long before the truth is known. The town and surroundiug country is in a ferment of excitement. CARROLL'S FATE, Carroll, the brother of the hanged wo- man, and who was accused of being a party to the murder, was taken in & bug- gy by two men who belonged to the vigi- lantes and driven several miles out from Ouray. They then stopped, and were soon joined by several more maskedmen. Prng:nfionl were made to hang Carroll. He begged piteously and explained tothe the the men that he was not with Cuadigans on the night of murder, and therefore he could not be guilty of the murder. He said he could only be held as an acces- sory to the crime, but he did that simply to protect his sister from her crime, gie They were but little was made hideous by the fear- of the woman and cries for 'y mhh were made every now and men, bofi.d y for hour, their b’ e "viglanie asked who of the men present wouldn't doall in his power to save a sister! The rope was thrown over the limb of a tree, and Carroll was drawn up. Before life waa extinct he was let down again. A consultation was then held, and then the men decided that Carroll did not de- serve to be hanged. They would give him time to leave the country, with the understanding that should he ever return he would meet his fate at the end of a rope Young Carroll was only too thankful to uce&c the proffer, Hestart- ed alone on the train, The lynchers watched him until out of sight and then roturned to town, It is hardly probable he will ever show up in these diggings again, A more orderly band of vigilantes never put & mau to death, Their cool deliberation is shown in Carroll's case. lere was some doubt as to his guilt,and the mob, after hanging the man and wife, took Carroll off to a more conven. ient place, where they would go through some sort of a trial, and thus determine his guilt or innocence. THE MOB'S VICTIMS, Tho trustees of the cemetery here to- day refused to permit the bodies of Cud- digan and wife to be buried there, Father Servent, of whose church Cuddi- gan and his wife were members, refused to ofticiate at the funeral, The remains were kugt in a stable all dayand were visited by hundreds of people. The man and wife lay side hio.id" their features terribly distorted, showing that they had both died & horrible death from strangu- lation. Cuddigan was over six feet high, com| xb t, had light hair, blue oyes and sandy beard. His counte- nance was not frank and open, but there was nothing repulsive about Mrs. Cuddigan was almost as large as her hus- band. She had thick, sensual lips, a brazen look and a sharp tongue, but pedes- | would have been called beautiful by ad- helplessly A On they went, moving swiftly through the dark- mirers of Amazonian beauty. She was about 38 years of age, her husband 40 years old. The two brothers of Cuddi- gan refused to receive the bodies, and as & last resort Coroner Hazzard took the remains of Ou and wifo this evening to ir late ranch, south of the city, mdfluum burial, Cuddigan & decent several hundred dollars on his when I; taken in charge by the sheriff, who will soll all availatle property and put the money in trust for the infant child of Cuddigan and wife, who was left home- less by the lynchers. The child has been taken in charge by the authorities. There is no clue to the identity of any of the lynchers. PRESS COMMENTS, Denver Tribune, The facts in the Ouray lynching are simple enough, There was a pretty little girl who had a vagabond for a father, and who was put_in a convent school to be brought up. Two poople—a man and a woman—took the poor holpless waif from the school under a promise to take care of it, and tortured it to death by the most appalling cruelty, Tn due course of time the murderers were arrested and lodged in jail. In due courso of time, had thero been no lynch.- ing, they would have been tried and probably escaped with a light sentence, According to Colorado precedent, neither of thom would have been hung—cortain- ly not the woman. The Ouray people had before them the prospect of a leng- thy and costly trial, which would hardly result in the punishment deserved, and they prevented the expense and disposed of the case in their own effective way. The objection to the lynching of the woman is purely sentimental, A woman s0dead toall the feelings of her sex as to torture a poor, little, unfriended child into eternity was worse than the man, Something of softness might have been expected from her. In serving her as her accomplice was served the Ouray mob displayed o strict sense of justice, Both the murderers deserved the death hey met.
