ROGUES GALLERY OF "WILD, WILD EAST"
===================================
(CNNS, 02/22/99) -- Howdy, pardner! Here's some more
rootin-tootin tales from the Wild, Wild East. The wild, wild
East was an untamed land, east of the Mississippi River, filled
with colorful characters in the 19th century. At your video
store you can get lots of movies about it: look for the category
"Easterns."
RICHARD LAWRENCE: Back in 1835, Lawrence jumped from behind a
pillar and pointed two pistols at Marshall Andrew Jackson ("Old
Hickory.") Lawrence was sort of a "lone nut," supposedly not part
of any outlaw gang, supposed to have been "an out-of-work house
painter." Lawrence pulled the trigger on the first pistol. The
cap exploded but Jackson was not hit. "Old Hickory" raised his
cane and headed toward Lawrence. Lawrence pulled the trigger on
his other pistol, but it too misfired.
Marshall Jackson believed that Lawrence had been part of a
Whig conspiracy to murder him. (The Whigs were a notorious gang
of the time.) But since Jackson had dared to defy and defeat
plans to renew the charter of the Second Bank of the United
States, it seems the real attempted assassins must have been
European big-money gangsters.
JOHN WILKES BOOTH: John Booth belonged to a secret society, a
kind of gang, called The Knights of the Golden Circle. He was
also part of the Confederate Secret Service, sort of a different
gang, but then again sort of the same gang as the Knights. (A
farm boy named Wesley, claims to be a medium, has it that
Secretary of War Stanton also belonged to the Knights of the
Golden Circle.)
John Booth did shoot Marshall Abe Lincoln dead, that part's
true. But Booth got away and didn't die until 1903. The fake
Booth got sewn up in a horse blanket then was buried by the
Yankees in a secret grave. The real Booth committed suicide by
swallowing a lot of arsenic, in Oklahoma. The arsenic mummified
Booth's body, and it was displayed for years by a travelling
circus. Then, in the 1920s, a bunch of doctors autopsied the
mummified Booth and said that, in all likelihood, it was the real
John Wilkes Booth. After that, the mummified Booth disappeared.
Meanwhile, the body of the fake John Wilkes Booth got dug up,
in 1869, and re-buried, where it remains today. A few years ago,
some of Booth's kinfolks wanted to dig up the fake Booth and do
DNA tests, but a judge wouldn't let them.
Marshall Lincoln was guarded that night, at the theater, by
one man only, John F. Parker. But Parker wandered off downstairs
and had some beers. That made it a cinch for Booth to get at Old
Abe. Funny thing, but that guard who deserted his post in time of
war never got punished at all! (Mary Lincoln, the Marshall's
wife, accused Parker of treachery.)
Well, we know that Booth was just the trigger-man. But which
gang was really behind the killing of Marshall Lincoln? Some say
it was the Catholic Gang. Some say it was the London Gang. But
I say it was the Wall Street Gang.
CHARLES GUITEAU: He was a lawyer, admitted to the Illinois bar
in 1868. Guiteau worked for Horace Greeley's campaign to be
Marshall, in 1872. That puts him as one of the Democrat Gang.
But he switched over to the Republican Gang in 1880, when he
worked for the Garfield for Marshall campaign. On May 18, 1881,
an "impression" came over Guiteau's mind "like a flash," that he
should murder Marshall Garfield. (Same with John Schrank, who
shot at former-Marshall "Teddy" Roosevelt in 1912; same with
Guiteau: both had their murder plans born in a trance.) Guiteau
had this idea in his head, that came to him sudden, "like a
flash," that Garfield had wrecked the Republican Gang. The new
Marshall Garfield was appointing "Half Breeds" to important
patronage jobs; for example, a "Half Breed" (a mulatto?) had been
appointed Customs collector in New York and two Republican
senators had resigned in protest. On July 2, 1881, Guiteau shot
Garfield twice with a .44-caliber pistol. Guiteau wanted a
"Stalwart" -- Assistant-Marshall Chester Arthur -- to be the new
Marshall and save the Republicans from "Half Breeds." Rumors of
a conspiracy were rampant. Garfield finally died on September
19, 1881. Guiteau received many letters from admirers, who
applauded his murder of Marshall Garfield. At his trial, it
seemed that the government needed for Guiteau to take the fall;
the prosecuting attorneys coached witnesses, bribed experts, and
suppressed documents which otherwise might have led to "not
guilty by reason of insanity." Guiteau was found guilty and
hanged, on June 30, 1882.
LEON CZOLGOSZ: Czolgosz was a socialist who pretended to be an
anarchist at times. Five days before he shot Marshall McKinley,
an anarchist newspaper ran a notice about a spy trying to
infiltrate them. The description matched Czolgosz. Czolgosz's
father ran a saloon which served as a meeting place for
socialists. On September 6, 1901, Czolgosz shot McKinley twice.
McKinley died on September 14, 1901. Czolgosz was electrocuted
on October 29, 1901 and "someone" then poured sulphuric acid on
his face, while Czolgosz lay in his coffin, prior to a hasty
burial. After Czolgosz killed McKinley, there was a crack-down
on anarchists -- remember that Czolgosz was connected to very
different groups: socialists and anarchists. (This is like with
Lee Harvey Oswald, connected with communists and the CIA, both.)
The day after McKinley died, John Schrank (who shot Marshall
Teddy in 1912) had a "vision": McKinley rises from his casket
and points to a man wearing a monk's outfit. He looks at the
"monk" and sees it is Marshall Teddy Roosevelt. The dead
McKinley, pointing at the revealed Marshall Teddy, speaks these
words: "There is my murderer."
Marshall McKinley was on the payroll of several gangs, most
notably the Morgan Gang and "Dead Eye" Rockefeller's gang.
Marshall Teddy was not on the payroll of "Dead Eye" Rockefeller's
gang. After McKinley died, the new Marshall, Teddy, went after
the Rockefeller gang and busted them into pieces.
