NSw YoRE, May "a Columbia, s.
U, special to tho Herald says: Tho in.
quest over the body OF Willie Leaphar,,
who was shot to death in his cell ID Lex
lngton by a mob Of men, was held in
Lexington yesterday. During the pro-
gress Of the inquest seven OF the men in
the mob were identified as having as
sisted and taken part in the assassinh.
tion. Tho jury remained out ten min
utes and returned with tho remarkable
verdict that William Leahart came to
his death by gun shot wounds at tho
hands Of persons unknown.
The Governor will probably offer n
large reward for the conviction OF tho
nurderers. The Solisitor will present the
names OF tho seven men he has to the
grand jury.
Among the evidence In the hands of
the Governor, which caused tho Judge
to recommend a respite for Lsaphart
and Governor Richardson to grant the
same, was to the effect that the girl hc
was supposed to have raped had been
ruined recently. that exposure would
come in time and that tho scheme OF
charging the negro with tho assault was
arranged and planned by those most in
terested IN the matter, so that they
would gain more time and perhaps ulti-
nateiy prevent exposure. Leaphart wss
convicted solely upon Rosa Cannon's
testimony. 49,

noyed at the notice which foreigners in
Cnlna are taking of their domestic
chickering's. A Chinese newspaper would
not dare to hint at such matters, but
many Cinnamon can read English and
find much entertainment in tho foreign
newspapers at present. 1if
The foreign, press was officially assured
that the Emperor and his mother were
the best Of friends, but this assurance
carried little weight. For the present
the Empress has little authority, and tho
railway boards, her old enemies, have
come to the front. In the Emperor.
however, is vested the only valid power
in the State. He is supposed to WELD
despotlc power, but is really "strony
man in cliai g." The reactionary party
guides him at present, but many people
think that he will soon shake of all con-
troll. - :. : - oO
For decency's sake formal truce has
been patched up between the Emperor
and the Dowager Empress, and it is m.
nounced that he will visit her in her
palace as often as possible.
