MOB BALKED FOR PRESENT Sheri® Decldes Not to Take Murderer Porter Back to Limon Until Feellug In Lean Tenne, DENVER, Nov. 16.—At 9 o'clock tonight it was announced that Sherift Freeman of Lincoln county had decided not to take John Porter, the confessed murderer of little Loulse Frost, to that county at pres ent. He declares that he wishes to-avold a lynching, It possible, and thinks that when the people have time to cool down they will be willing to allow the law ‘o take its course. Friends of the dead girl's family are deeply Incensed against the sheriff and threats of violence against him are freely made, The day has been an exciting one in Denver. Thousands of people have sur- rounded the city jall, where the negro was confined, and it kept the police depart. ment busy clearing the streets. There was Do Indication that any motive other than curlosity prompted the gatherings. Late this afternoon Porter was transferred to the custody of Sherift Jones of this (Arap- ahoe) county and taken to the county jall. Porter gpent the day reading the bible and praying. He expressed penitence for bis crime, but retains remarkable nerve. That John Porter fs the ravisher and murderer of 11-year-old Loulse Frost there remains no doubt. His con- tesslon has, been confirmed by the finding of the girl's pocketbook in the vault at the Limon rallroad depot, where Porter ad- mitted that he threw it. A dozen citizens of Limon, where the crime was committed, started for Denver on the morning train with the avowed purpose of acting as an escort for Sheriff Freeman and his prisoner on the journey to the jail at Hugo. Flve hundred determined men, most of them ranchmen, have assembled at Limon and Hugo and they make no secret of thelr intention to lynch the young murderer. Public feeling 1s at such a pitch that the return of the murderer's father and brother, who appear to have alded him In burning his bloodstained garments, may also be demanded and three lives may be sacrificed in atonement for the terrible crime. “There 18 nothing for me to do,” said Governor Thomas today, when asked If he would interfere to prevent the proposed lynching. “The civil authorities have the prisoner and it lies with them to protect him.” A special to the News from Limon, Colo., ye & mass meeting of citizens from all parts of Lincoln county was held there tonight and resolutions adopted requesting Shérift Freeman to bring John Porter, the negro murderer of Loulse Frost, to tho county at once. It was decided that the negro shall be hanged, but that no torture shall be permitted. An organization was perfected and 1t was positively asserted that Porter will be executed when brought to the county, no odds how long the de- lay. Much dissatistaction was expressed at the decision of Sheriff Freeman to hold the prisoner I Denver for the present. COLOWALU SPRINGS, ol morning to lssue an order for the removal of John Porter, the young negro who con- fessed that he murdered Loulse Frost at Limon, to Hugo, the county seat of Lincoln county, in which the crime was committed. McAllister based his refusal upen the ground that preparations were openlyl being made at Limon and Hugo to lynch Porter, DENVER, Colo., Nov. 15.—Young Porter sald today to Police Surgeon Miller, in re- ply to a question, that he confessed in order to save his father and brother sharing the fate that he believ waits him.

Among these features Is that of fleld guns, which is dis- missed with a paragraph stating that the facts can be found in an appendix. The Ordnance bureau was about to let the eon- tracts for 200 fleld guns when the recom- mendation of the Board of Ordnance and FortificAtions was approved, holding up action for some months. It fs in counec- tlon with fleld ordnance that an agent of the government bas obtained what it alleges Is the secret of the French fleld gun and Which 1t s proposed shall be tested by this government Another controversy 1s that relatiog to the disappearing gun carriage, whose further manufacture has been decided against by the Board of Ordnance and Fortifications. Gen- eral Bufington discusses the history of this carriage, showing that it was ordered by the Endicott bourd and the secretary of war. General Buffington says: 3 “There was at the time no disappearing carrlage known to the world which satiefied fully the requirements and it is Inferred that the highest mlilitary authority deemed that the disappearing principle was of such paramount importance and so desirable that it must be adopted and that a suitable :nrr.lnc would ultimately be forthcoming or it. “It was, therefore, presented to the Ordnanco department as a problem to be the best solution it has been able to find So far as experlence bas gone, It bas worked well, and, in fact, much more satis- factorily than was anticipated. It is pre- sumed, however, that the question ralsed involved the disappearing syster ftself and the severe requirements it imposcs upon the carriago bullder. It challenges the necessity for such protection to the gun, its carriage and men, and suggests an open rampart carriage simpler In function and there- fore simpler in design and perhaps capable of quicker action and more rapid fire. “The department is not by any means wedded to the disappearing system. It accepted it from higher authority as a con- dition to which it was required to conform, but s ready to take up from the proper authority any other system and devote its energles to making it successful. It has already provided the balanced pillar mounts for five-inch guns and is making similar ones for six-inch guns and is prepared to tal into consideratior forms of pedestal or pillar mounts for still larger calibres, or carriages of uon-disappearing barbette type, @s may seem best. There has. been a great deal of discussion over the so-catled ‘“‘pom pom™ guns, one- pounders. They have been used {n the South Africag’ war, but no oficial opinion has been 1 1ve regarding them. Two batteries of! nch guns each have been ordered and soon as completed will be sent to the Philirpines, Progress om Defenwes. Many rapid-fire seacoast guns are mount- ing. These consist of five and six-inch and fifteen-pounders. The Driggs-Seabury company has delivered fifty-seven 15- pounders and twenty 6-pounders, but Gen- eral BufMngton says that the fallure of the company to deliver fifteen-pounders and carrlages under their contracts with the government has caused serious delay. A similar complaint {8 made about the Brown segmental wire gun, and attention is pointed to an appendix on this subject. The report says that heretofore there bas been little use for the mountain guns, but upon requisitions trom the Philippines all the mountain guns on hand, together with two six-gun batteries, were purchased and sent to Manila. There was also a de- mand for small calibre machine guns and quite & number have been purchased and sent to the Philippines. Contracts have been made for 1,151,000 pounds of smokeless powder, of which 800,- 000 pounds were for the use of seaconst guns and mortars. It is belleved that the dif- flculties encountered it year have been overcome and that the new powder will prove satisfactory. During the last year there were completed the following heavy guns: Ten 10-inch rifles, twenty-four 12-inch rifles, thirty- eight 12-inch mortars, making a total of such heavy guns now ready for our de- fonses of 658. Work on the sixteen-inch rifle was delayed because a larger furnace was needed. There bave been accepted during the year 5,600 armor and deck-plercing projectiles, Concerning tests at Sandy Hook, General Buffinston that experiments have been made for shells with wet gun cotton, thorlte, Jovite No. 2, corberite and with explosives of the lyddite and amonitrate classes. It is necessary to have an explosive which will be safe In the gun and in storage, s compound which s still an object of pursult. Experiments to detect flashes of smokeless powder proved ineftectual. Five patterns of fleld carrlage with controlled recoil h. been tried and none found wholly eatis- factory.

EXECUTORS ARE RESTRAINED ecares I NEW YORK, Nov. 15.—Judge Lacombe of the United States circuit court today, on the application of Eliza T. Griswold of Philadelphia, granted a temporary injunc- tion against Maw U. Strong, P. Bradlee Streng and Albert R. Shattuck, individually and as executors and trustees of the will of the late Willlam L. Strong, which re- strains them from parting with or dispos- ing of certaln mortgages, bonds, stocks and other securities claimed by the complain- ants, The bill of complaint states that prior to November 2, 1900, the complainant en- trusted to the late Willlam L. Strong cer- tain moneys, approximately amounting to $162,000, for the sole purpose of Investing the same for her benefit and account; that Mr. Strong advised her from time to time that such investments were made in good and sufficlent mortgages, bonds and stocks and other securities. ‘The papers also assert that on the death of Mr. Strong the defendants took posses- sion of his estate, Including the property owued by the complainant, which, on the 12th of November they refused to deliver to the petitioner, and she therefore asks that hree defendants or their agents be ned from selling, delivering or part- ing with the property mentioned. The cornection of Mr. Strong with the Gris: wolds has extended over a long period. He was one of the most intimate friends of the elder Mr, Griswold, now deceased. The suit Is brought by the heirs s Individuals and pot by the Griswold Worsted company. It is thought that this claim will be amica. djusted and will not come to trial. Major Putnam B. Strong sald today that his mother owns the house, 12 Wost Fifty- seven(h street, which may be worth $175,000, and that she also has a small income from property left here by her grandfather, Israel Shelton, a southern planter. “I kmow nothing about the report that comes from Philadelphia, fixing the lia- bilities at $6,000,000. My opinion fs that the Hablilities are not so large,” he said. “It {s untrue that my father worrled over his affairs and that this worry hastened his death.” The dcors of the firm did not open this morning. Arthur H. VanBrunt, one of the attor- neys for the recelver, : “I have given out everything except the figures. Those 1 do not know about. It will take some time to find out the amount of the labilities and to balance them with the assets. Then It will be & week or two before the books can be gone over.
