MORE LYNCH LAW IN HUNTINGTON.
A Wife Bcater's Narrow Escnpe from Hang
ing by Long Island Mob.

John Butler, n Huntington IL. H. carpen-
ter. who has the reputation Of being dissipated,
went home drunk on Saturday night. and began
to abuse his wife because she would give him
no money. She ran from the house In terror,
and her husband, following her, knocked her
down and kicked her until she was nearly un-
conscious. Several women who saw the assault
raised an alarm, and in a few moments a throng
Of excited villagers surrounded the house, to
which Butler fed for safety. Butler, procuring
shotgun, tried to fire its contents at the men (;
but the weapon missed FIRE, aud Butler was
secured after a desperate resistance, and tied
with rope to the door. The wife was taken
unconscious into another house. and for two
hours IL was hard to predict whether she could
ever speak again. Meantime exaggerated rumors
Of the assault were spread. incluuing one that
she was dead. and the excited tnrUnR decided
to hang Butler to tree. Men ran for a rope,
and the limb Of the tree from which to suspend
the man was decided on. and had II not been for
the influence of a few cool headed residents the
threat must have been carried out. The thrOng
was persuaded, however, to wait until Mrs. But
lers condition was positively known, but before
this was done officers took Butler In charge, and

this Illegal sale, and notified the State Depart

that she may behbelled against her former own

No Call Made for Assistance from the Federal

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Telegrams have
been received by the Attorney q eneral from the
United States District Attorney and the United
States Marshal at Jackson, Miss, In reference to
the recent disturbances there between white
and colored citizens. The Information these
kilograms convey Ia substantially to the effect
that at a political meeting held In Clinton, Miss,
on Saturday last, arrow occurred In which three
whites and four coored persons we're killed and
many were wounded. There does not seem to
be any attack or violation OF the laws so far as
the United States authorities are concerned,
and up To "A late hour this afternoon there have
been no sugRestions In any way fromthe Federal
officials which should lead to the interference CO
OF the general Government, though Jackson
was represented as being IN a very high stato OF
excitement, and the oficers sending the tele-
grams were OF opinion that the State authorities
were powerless to prevent the continuation of
the disorders. The Attorney- Generai has tele.
graphed to the District Attorney and the United
states Marshal at Jackson to 10 all 10 their
power to preserve order, but as there mad been
no call from the United States authorities for
assistance, no further directions have been
given Should application be made from officers
OF the general Government stationed In the dis
turbed places for aid In preserving the laws or
supporting their ofhcial authority, IL Is probable
that the Attorney General would AJAX for the
sstance Of the military, but up to this time there
have been no such demands or suggestions.
