Since the An archists went t,o their death in Chicago, there has been considerable inquiry regard ng the man who cut the ropa Rumor has connected tho work with the natnos of sev eral parties residing in various parts of the dountry, but the individual who wai appar ently the most prominently identiuod by the publio in relation to the casa is Mr. C. L Pendleton, who livei near Lo1Ia, MIclt. The resklonti of the town have lxwn sui pcctlng him for aorui tim? of balm: the man who cut the ropo, and they believe tli.it ha is omployoit1 In varioui citie3 to ha-ir critn inal. "For this re tson hi neighbor! an I former associates shunlilm as they would a leper. That they nro wrontr in tboir suspi cion has been proved, but the faoc remains that Mr. Pendleton built the BoaiTold on which the men were" hung. A reporter called on him at his home, three miles north--west of Leslio, pleasantly loo ito 1 on ono of tho most productivo farms in central Michi gan. When the object of the visit was stated he entered froely, into a conversation rela tive to the matter. For two years previous to '85 Mr. Pendleton resided in Culoaao. Five years immediately proceeding; his re moval to this state ho was in the employ of the city as chief of the Are department, ami s's, bad entire supervision of the public building and repairing. It was while serv ing in tho latter capacity that he came into promtnonct) in the criminal record of Chi cago. "When Sherry and Coaler wro exe cuted in 'TO for the murder of O'Connell, Pendleton erected the soadold. When Tracey was throttled several years later for the killing of an ofllcer, Pendleton again built tho gallows. In 'S3 another execution was added to the list. Jacobson, an easily angered character, in an unguarded mo ment twrmitted his tomner to get the bast of him and slew an unfortunate wre'eh who owed lilin a dollar. Pendleton again built the gallows. Succeeding this event the government of the city passed out of the Republican con trol, and in the administration that fol lowed Pendleton wai anno. ; th flrst who ceased to draw revenue from the city cof fers. It was' then he move I here. Vhen he departed from Cook county Mr. Pendle ton thought he had abaudonad his former occupation, but his skill trai again in do mniid in tho .sprinar of the present yoar when the throe sons of I'nly wore hanged for murdoring a comrade, when Mr. Pen dloton built the gallows. Tills scaffold was takeu apart and pla-ed in the jail basement for future use. No vember 11 it was again placed in position, but by other hands than Mr. Pendleton's, and the four AnarchUts drew their last breath on it. Tlta assertion that ho cut the rode in tho last great National hanging some, is positively denied by Pendleton, end that he was at home, and not out of Leslie during the week of the execution is provod. However, the gentleman venture the re mark that he knows who did cut the Cord which held four men in the brink of the gravo, but positively refuses to divulge the noma, merely volunteering the information that he is not a resident of Michigan.
