INTERVIEW WITH CLET E.
LAND.
THE PRESIDENT EXPRESSES HIS
VIEWS on THE EIGHT HOUR
LAW,

WAsHINGrov, January 23.M recent meeting
of the committee ON labor, of the house, statements
were made that the spirit of the eight hour law was
being openly violated, ignored or evaded in certain
of the government departments, and Chairman
O'Neill was empowered to present to the house a
resolution of inquiry, directed to various secreta
rics asking in direct terms whether the law was
bpiag enforced by than. Pending the introduction
of the resolution, Mr.. O'Neill sought an audience
with the president, which was granted this after
noon, and lasted over an hour. On
the matter of the eight hour law
the president said: II believe that the law
is Il sound one and good one, and that it should
be enforced to the letter. have no information
regarding instances of its violation or evasion, but
that the abuse il remedied and the full spirit of the
law enforced, which | understand to be to pay
workmen in the governments employ for eight
hours work daily what is paid outside the govern
ment's employ for full days work. The govern
meut cannot afford to set an example of nonen-
fortemeut and nonobservance of its own enact
ments.'
The president further said: 81 appreciate the
effect upon the mechanics of the country of the
constantly increasing Use of labor saving ma
chinery, and | can think of no more prac-
teal relief for unemployed surplus labor than
occupation by 1t of public lands | don't hesitate
tn say | am heartily in favor of any feasible plan
for the encouragement and assistance of prospect
i've American settlers upon the public domain by
the general government.
In this connection the president expressed some
very radical views upon the subject of occupation
of tracts of public land by foreign capitalists
The president seemed DESTROYS of impressing upon
Mr.. ONeill his willingness to heartily cooperate
with congress in any efforts il may make to elevate
the working classes and improve the social condi-
ton of bread winners

special Telegram 10 Inc Sthtesnhn'
GALVESTON January g3-Mr. Henry Il. Brown,
secretary of the International Committee OF the
Young Mems Christian association, arrived In the
city yesterday from New Orleans where he ar
ranged dates for the coming Of Moody and san key
the eyangelists. II has finally been determined
that the Sc famous reviyallsts VIII make southern
tour Immediately ON concluding their present Sc
res Of meetings In Chicago. Their route a. thus
far arranged ia AZ follows: Knoxville, Tenn,
January u; Chattanooga, January % to III; Nash
Vile, February to 4; New Orleans, February 0
10 TO- and Te xas, February - to March
I. Mr.. Brown IL now arranging their
Texas route. lie held a conference today with
ministers OF the city, who afterwards met and or
gnniEed for the purpose of aiding Mr. Moody in his
work. Rev. DR.. Spaulding, Baptist, was chosen
chairman OF the meeting by his brother ministers
Every Protestant church in the city was repre-
aehted and the ministers have agreed to work in
perfect harmony In the matter Of conducting the
reviyals TWAS decided that each minister appoint
one layman from nis congregation who, together
with the minister's would constitute the committee
having general charge and conduct of the Moody
meetings. The ministers propose to hold frequent
conferences ana special church meetings prior to
the arrival OF the great preacher and thus prepare
the field for his harvesting lab0rs. With this view
the Young Mems Christian association will hold II
special meeting tomorrow at their rooms
II is thought from present indications
that Mr.. Moodys meetings here will
attract immense audiences, and the committee are
casting about for a hall large enough TO accommo-
date the attendance. Special trains will be run
from Houston IL will be observed from the
above dates that Mr. Moody's time in Texas is
limited to only fourteen days and II il uncertain
yet how many cities they can visit within that
time. Their route through the state has, there
fore, not yet been decided upon, nor the dates
fixed II Is probable that the famous evangelist
will open at Galveston on Sunday night, February
n, thence to Houston, To Dallas, and either to
Fort Worth or san Antonio. II IL not thought
that they can cover more than four points in
Texas, so that one of the above cities will be
passed. The dates In Texas will be arranged
about Monday next.

NEGRO LYNCHED.
Special Telegram to the Statesman.


RocKpALE. January 2l.-At an early hour this
morning the peace officers were informed that Mr..
sam Ford had been robbed and left tor dead last
night about two miles west OF the city, on the l. q
g. y road Il was also learned that negro man
did the deed and afterwards came back to town,
stayed all night and started OF early this morning,
walking down the railroad towards Milano Con
stable j. II. Cone aud one or two other gentlemen
started In purauit about nine o'clock and easily
tracked him TO within short distance Of MianO,
where he turned of and made for the Santa fe,
where he caught, after going about two miles
up the road. =,
The negro had in his possession several bundles
of goods which Mr. Ford had bought of +. ;:
Black, merchant here, the evening before, and
several other smaller articles taken from FORD
person including about ten dollars in money.
The attack was made about dark the negro strik
ing Ford with some iron weight and shooting at
him three times. SuppOsing MS victim dead the
culpIt dragged the body the railroad track,
covered up the body in the sand, and left expecting
train to come by and mangle the corpse 80 az 70
cover up the I.urder. Ford came TO consciousness
soon after being left and managed 10 get on the
track aud spent the remainder of the night trying
to ret home, distance of two miles, which lie
reached about daylight, being terribly bruised and
lacerated and having one eye entirely knocked out
After being arrested and placed in Jail the negro
made full confession, saving he took Ford clothes
and things because he made him mad. MT. BLOCK
identified the goods In the negroes possession as
those sold Ford. The negro says he Is from AUS
tin and Il Is though by some that he may possibly
know something of the terrible crimes at that
place lie il brown skim about % years old, clean
face, thick lips, and has very bad cOuntenance;
He Is about five feet seven inches high and viii
weigh about one hundred and fifty pounds. Al
this hour II il reported the streets that Ford Is
dead, and II ia confidently expected that the negro
| will he given his just dues tonight.
| LATERAL 9:20 a. III. an infnriated mob attacked
| the calabOOse and demanded the negro who SO bru-
| tally beat and left for dead the man Sam Fora:
| Notwithstanding the constable, j. H. Cone, and
| those whom he had summoned, the mob forced
their way into the calabOOse and took the negro a
distance Of about one mile from town, where they
| HANGED him to a hickory tree. The negro acknowl-
edged all and tried TO make peace with his God.
