The band of outlaw Indians is said to number about 100. Humors of their depredations were rife 011 Saturday, when many ranchers lied to the towns for safety and reported a number of murders in the region southeast of Guayamas. It was not believed, however, that the. Yaijuis would dare to attack a railroad station. When the news of the extraordinary proceeding was made public It was at once divined that Griffith had a strong political pull. According to Attorney Marron, Griffith had no influence. Mr. Marron said: The total death list is probably twelve. The white mob has fled toward the Alabama" line, while the negroes have gathered at Scooba jfnd Wahalak to place themselves under the protection of troops. Mr. Mcpherson's auditors appeared rather incredulous, but he assured them that he was telling exactly what had been told him. "The stenographic testimony of the ease was laid before the pardon board and it is now on file in Harrisburg. It shows that, with the exception of one witness, ail the evidence favored Mr. Griffith. Even this one witness afterward admitted that he had been mistaken in the testimony he had given. After Griffith Was convicted an appeal was taken to the Superior court. This accounts for the fact that he was never imprisoned. Griffith was never guilty of the charge, and the pardon board did not hesitate to recognize that fact and granted him a pardon. It was given purely upon its merits." "I know another true story about Mr. Rockefeller, one of his early days," continued Mr. Mcpherson.
