A BRUTAL FATHER.
DIUVKN BY TOUTUItE TO 1ULL HIS
OWN FATUEK.
A Story of Barbarous anil Vlamll.li
Cruelty as Practiced by nn Inhuman
Father.
St. Louis, Dee. 20. A horrible
ta'Io of tho nlleged barbarous cruelty
of George A. Gucnlhui, tho defense
less old man, who was slain by his
slxteeu-year old son yestcreay, was
related to-day by Charles Guenther,
elder brother of tho murderor. Tho
son's story brands tho dead man as
a savage fiend who delighted lu
acts of inhumanity toward his
children. Among other barbarities
alleged was chaining up tho children
in a dismal apartment, nudo, and
wnilo in that condition torturing
tnem with all tub pruritics practiced
in tho inquisition.
"I have not lived at homo for livo
years," said Charles Guenther. "I
left home alter ono period of slow
torture that mado mo desperate I
had done somothing that my father
did not Hko. It was a small offense,
but tho way my father tortured me
would make ono belicvo either that
ho was crazy or I had committed
somo terriblo crime. My father
mado mo go up-stalrs with him to a
room in tho back part of tho house
Hero he brought ou(; somo chains,
and when I caught sight of them I
set up an outcry, but no one heard
me. My father shouted to mo to
stop that infernal noise, and when
bo found ho could not frighten me
hojnmpedntmennd wo had a reg
ular light.
"Finally he got tho b&tter of me,
and by threatening to do mo oven
greater violence, compelled mo to
Keep quiet. io ucgan to bind me
with those chains. When I thought
he had done ho took up another one
and fastened it around my neck,
and fixed it so that I could hardly
move my ueau. xnen ue left mo
for several hours, during which I
suffered fiendish torture.
"After a lapse of a few hours ho
came up stairs with a bottlo of
whisky. Ho released me from tho
chains and compelled mo to strip
from head to foot until I stood nudo
bcioro mm. xnen no chained mo
up and took a good-sized pin and
began pricking mo with it from
head to foot, until J v.'as Weeding
all over. My father then wet his
finger from tho bottle and
rubbed over what seemed
to mo ovory soro ho had
mado on my body. Ho did not rub
over my wholo body nt once, but
would rub over a small spaco until
all the stuff had been rubbed in,
when ho would wet his flupers
ngain and begin on another place
The pain was excrutlatinir. I must
havo fainted, for I remained in that
room all night, chained up,, and did
not know anything until tho next
morning, when I was released. Af
ter that I ran away."
Tho boy Emlle, who has boon
held for beating his father to death,
acts like an Imbecile and it is be
lieved that ho has been driven in
sano by the cruelty of his father and
tho tragedy of yesterday. To-day he
fulled to recognize his own brother,
and when uppcaled to almost sup
plicjitiugly for recognition, a silly
Hiniio was his only response.
