EVADING JUDGE LYNCH.
AN EXCITING TIME AT VIRGINI A
CITY.
Murderer Crowley Sequestered by the
Authorities to Prevent His Being
Lynched-The People Fooled.

VIRGINIA, Nev.,' July 21.-Pat Crow
ley, who killed William Nichols in the
Savage mine last night, was taken at
Carson tonight at 10 O'Clock. Excite
ment ON account of the murder made
the officers deem it prudent to remove
him from the possibility of an attack by
a mob. A team was made ready at a
stable and the prisoner was taken there
without attracting notice, placed in a
carriage, ,ironed and placed under strong
guard and driven off. Five minutes
after starting the alarm bell was rung at
the cou rt house, and an immense crowd
rushed to the Jail, expecting that the
60l were making an attempt to take the
prisoner out. 1t is said that the au-
thorities ordered the bell to sound, to
draw the crowd away from the road to
Carson, but nobody will admit any
knowledge of the affair. Immediately
after the ringing rockaway dashed to the
Emmitt guard armory, and taking in a
supply OF arms, followed the carriage
containing the prisoner, before the peo-
pie knew he was gone. 1t is reported
that number of the Emmitt guards, Of
which Crowley was a member went
along for protection in case OF attack.

DULUTH, Mimi, July 21.-Thousands
of spectators were present at this the
first day of the great regatta, and the
weather and water were in perfect con-
dition.
In the juuior singles the contestants
were Nettleton of Minnesota, Henderson
of the Chicago Catlin Club, and Thomp-
son of the Winnipegs. Nettleton won
by two lengths, in 10 :49; Thompson
second, Henderson third.
The junior four-oared race resulted
Winnipegs first, Duluth second, Mime
sofa third Lurlines fourth, st. Paul
fifth. The judges boat unfortunately
ran too close and st. Paul had to back
water. This delayed them several Sec
onds just after the turn, and this, added
to the fact that the Lurlines and Duluths
fouled, caused the judges to decide that
the race must be rowed again.
The junior double was very unsatis-
factory. 1t was won by six boat-lengths
by the Catlin Club of Chicago; Mime
sofas second. During the last half the
Catlins had lead of ten lengths, and
were taking it extremely easy, while the
Minnesotas appeared exhausted. The
Lurlines stopped rowing three-eighths
of a mile from the finish. The Catlins'
time was II :011a.
The great professional double was a
magnificent race. 1t was a two-mile
struggle, the winning crew to get 81 900
second, $3.50 third, $3.50. Gaudaur and
Mckay were nearest the shore. Teemer
and Hosmer next, Hallon and Wise
next, and Hamm and Teneyck next.
There was some delay in giving the sig
nal, but when the shot was finally fired
every man dipped his oars with
wonderful unanimity. The stroke OF
Gaudaur and Mckay soon told, and
they forged ahead of Teemer and Hos
mer first quarter, then a half. then a
full length. The crews followed one an
other quite closely in their order from
the shore, Gaudaur and Mckay
pulling forty-two strokes minute, the
others thirty-six. Gaudaur and Mckay
were the first to make the turn, but
were quickly followed by Hosmer and
Teemer, then Hamm and Teneyck, finally
Hanlon and Wise. Half way to the
finish Gaudaur and Mckay led Hosmer
and Teemer by three lengths. The lat
ter kept three-fourths OF a length ahead
of Hamm and Teneyck, who kept the
same distance ahead of the Toronto
crew. Gaudaur's crew shot across the
line amid the screeching of whistles and
about four lengths ahead. The efforts
of the last two crews to pass Hosmer
were unavailing, although there was
but a quarter length between Teemer
and Hamm, and also between Hamm
and Hanlon at the finish. Hanlon
would have done better had he not lost
the use of both of his oars a hundred
yards from the finish. The time was
Gaudaur and Mckay, 1928; Teemel
and Hosmer, 1892; Hamm and Ten
eyck, 12:331s, and Hanlon and Wise
12:34. Hamm and Teneyck, according
to Teemer and Hosmer, turned the
former crews buoy, and Teemer has
entered protest.

BRUSSELS, July 21.-The sixtieth an
niversary Of Belgian independence, and
the twenty-ffth year of the reign Of
King Leopold, was observed today with
Ie Deum service in the cathedral in
the presence OF the members of the
royal family, cabinet ministers, foreign
diplomatic representatives and mem
bers of the senate and chamber of rep
resentatives. Afterward reception was
held at the palace. In responding to an
address from the senate, King Leopold
referred to the work of Belgium in
Africa as receiving an impetus through
the decision of the anti-slavery
conference. Belgium had taken a
great part in the vast enter
prise, and he hoped she would take a
still greater part in the future. The OBJ
ject of his life was to render the country
beautiful, strong and happy. In res
ponding to an address from the chamber
of representatives, the king said he
deemed the time opportune to assure to
Belgium his African possessions after
the expiration of ten years, which period
was necessary to consolidate the Congo
state. In the event of his death, Bel
GUM, his heir, would surely never wish
to diminish the extent or Importance of
her new possessions.

directors of the Keys Mining Company,
and that they, in conjunction with the
other defendants, circulated damaging
reports of the mine, made fictitious
sales, levied needless assessments, and
thereby froze out the plaintiffs, injurlng

FOR STAGE ROBBERY,
A Young Farm Laborer Arrested on Sus-

piciOn.
STOCKTON, Cal, July 21.-A young
farm laborer named Charles Brown,
about "a years OF age, was brought to
this city Sunday night by Constable
Dial, of Lockford, and Sheriff Cunning
ham, and locked up on suspicion of be-
ing the man who robbed the Mokelumne
Hill and Valley Spring stage last week.
Brown has been working off and
on in the vicinity of Clements,
this county, for several months, claim
ing to have lately arrived in California
from Arkansas. He was away several
days last week when the robbery was
committed, and returned to the ranch a
day or two before being arrested. He
says he was in Stockton at the time of
the robbery, but the officers believe they
have enough against him to warrant
holding him for full investigation of
the case. Sheriff Thorne, of Calaveras,
arrived today and found that the
prisoner answers the description of a
man he tracked several miles from the
scene of the robbery. AS the United
States mail was robbed, the reward for
the man who held up the stage is

WORLDS FAIR SITE.
THE AGRICULTURALIST HAVE l.
WORD TO SAY.
They Do Not Want to See It Located on
the Lake Front-The Place Too Small
for Agricultural Exhibits.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, July 21.-One of the
features of the special session of the
Illinois legislature will be the aggressive
part to be played by the Illinois state
board of agriculture. Acommitteefrom
that board will present to the general
assembly the views of the agriculturists
on the worlds fair site. 1t has been
known all along that the state board
was bitterly opposed to the lake front,
holding that no matter how that site
may be improved, it will be,
entirely inadequate for the ac-
commodation of the agricultural ex-
hibits such an occasion willcall forth.
Secretary Girrard said tonight to
representative "We insist, and every
state board of agriculture in the union
will insist with us, that the agricultural
exhibits must not be embarrassed in
such manner as to impair such an ex-
position. We do not desire to dictate to
the directors where they shall holdtheir
fair, or select the site, but we have q
right to insist that the site shall be
one that will supply every demand
for space. Four hundred acres would
not be an excess for agricultural ex-
hibits at the worlds fair; two hundred
acres will be the minimum which will
accommodate the states of this union
California alone asks forty acres for it's
agricultural, fruit and vintage exhibit,
and will probably not be satisfied with
less than fifteen or twenty. The state
of Illinois will want forty, if the de-
mands of the state board are to be OBJ
served. The other states will want
five, ten or fifteen acres each. All told
the states cannot get along with less
than POO acres, and it is absolutely i'm
possible to give us this if the lake front
is selected as the site. We
will positively not be satis-
fed with site which places
the agricultural exhibit mile
away from the other principal
features. In my opinion, in case the
lake front is selected as the site, the
Illinois board of agriculture will drop
the subject entirely, and not make any
exhibit. OF course, however, if the
next regular session of the legislature
makes an appropriation and instructs us
to make an exhibit, we will carry
out the provisions of the law.
But it is our opinion that if the lake
front is selected, the agricultural boards
OF the country will regard the worlds
fair in advance as failure, and abstain
from any attempt at successful exhibit
of the agricultural products of the coun-
trV.

Raiding the POOl-Sellers.

CHICAGO, July 2l.-Following the close
OF the Washington park races, four big
booksellers attempted today to reopen
lheir city establishments. The rooms
were promptly raided by the police, and
it is understood that orders have been
given for daily raids if necessary. Pool
selling is allowed by the Illinois law at
race tracks only, and it is reported that
the owners of the West Side track, if the
police fail in preventing downtown pool
selling, will enlist the services of detect
ives and inaugurate system OF raids.
If the booksellers are confined to the
race course the revenue of the track
owners, of course, will be increased.

A Boom: in Dried. Fruits. i.

VACAvILLE, CAL, July 2l.-There is a
boom in the dried-fruit market here.
Last Saturday the price jumped from IL
cents to Is cents. J. and 1. Blum, 3
local firm, and buyers for Chicago
house, are taking everything. in sight.
This price exceeds any ever paid. in the
state this early in the season. Winters,
twelve miles north of here, is the center
of an equally good fruit region, but the
absence of buyers there makes the ruling
price about 80 per cent. lower than here.
At the prices now ruling small fortunes
await the holders of crops.

Glass Blowers REQUEST.

WASHINGTON, July 21.-This afternoon
delegates to the annual convention of
the National Glass Blowers Association,
which has been in session in Baltimore,
presented to the senate committee on
finance request that the duties laid by
the house bill on glass bottles be re-
tanned. Their president said, within
the past two years there had sprung up
a competition with foreign importers
which the home manufacturer could not
meet. The delegation, he said, con-
tained no manufacturers, none but
laborers, and they asked the legislation
in their interest alone.

A Strange Accident.

PORTLAND, Ore, July 21.-Today a
man named Frank Kinney, while blast
ing out stumps in the suburbs of East
Portland, met with fearful accident.
He placed heavy charge of giant
powder under a large stump, ignited
the fuse and went nearly two blocks
away, deeming himself perfectly safe at
that distance. When the blast exploded
the stump was hurled high in the air
and fell on top of Kinney, cutting a
shocking cash on his head and badly in
juring him internally. 1t is thought he
cannot possibly recover.
