Three Negro Brut~s Quietly Removed
to Fort scott.
Pleasantou, Kan, Nov S.-Yes
terday afternoon Dan Williamson,
William and Bert Austin, negro coal
miners, were arrested and taken to
the county Jail at Mound City,
charged with 6endish outrage on
Maggie Luce, a 16-year-old dement,
ed girl of good family. The girl
was horribly lascerated and is not
expected to recover.
Early this morning band of rs
incensed citizens gathered at the
edge Of town and rode to Mound
City with the avowed purpose of
dealing out summary justice to the
negro fiends, Their purpose was
discovered, however, and the tele
phone was called into use to warn
the sheriff.
As soon as word had been receiv-
cd at Mound City the deputy in
charge Of the Jail secured rig and
handcuffed the three negroes and
drove them to Fort Scott
About 2 o'clock the crowd from
Pleasanton appeared at the jail and
made a demand on the sheriff for
admittance to the Jail. This was
granted, but the negroes could not
be found. The crowd was quite in
dignant and trouble is looked for
tomorrow when the prisoners are
brought from Ft. Scott for their pre-
liminary examination.

CARD FROM DR.. CLARDY.

My attention has been called to a
statement going the rounds of the
press to the effect that | had said, in
an interview in Western Kentucky
paper, that | wanted to see Mr.. Brown
get the nomination, provided / could
not get it. What | said was that |
believed Western Kentucky was di-
vided between Mr.. Brown and myself
and that if L did not get the vote of
that section | thought Mr.. Brown
would. This was merely said in a
casual conversation on a street-car,
and was probably the basis of the
purported "interview."
Some of the State papers have
stated that / have made similar
statement in my public speeches,
which is untrue, as do not remember
ever to have mentioned Mr.. Browns
name in any of my speeches. 1 wish
my friends to know that / am making
this canvass in the interest of my own
candidacy, aud not in any sense in the
interest of any other candidate.

After a session of over seven months
and the construction of the most re-
markablc State Constitution ofmodern
times, Kentucky's Constitutional Con-
vention adjourned Saturday, the dele
gates having significantly decided not
to sign the document until vote shall
show that is approved by the people.
The man who refuses to embark on a
new craft until trial has demonsha-
ted whether it will sink or within
doubtless flatters himself that he is as
shrewd as the rat which deserts a sink
ing ship.

During the past week temperatures
were lower than usual in all agricult.
ural districts except in the extreme
Northwest, where the range was from
three to six degrees above the normal.
In Florida the lowest temperature
ever recorded for April was observed,
attended by killing frost as far
South as Jupiter Inlet. The spring
wheat regions were visited by excess
sive rains, with local showers though
out the Southern States. Crop con-
ditions in the Northwest West and
States are reported excellent,
aud fruit escaped the recent frost with
small damage. In Louisiana and the
east portion of the cotton region nearly
all crops were damaged by frost.

The offerings for hurley tobacco
were quite free this week and we are
able to report a decided improvement
in the price of the medium grades; we
also have good market for low
grades with bright color. Good to
fine sorts are eagerly sought after and
are taken at remarkably good prices
when they appear, though they are
very scarce, the bulk of the offerings
being of very poor quality. There
seems to be disposition on the part
of holders to keep back their good to
fine grades for summer order. The
following quotations fairly represent
our market for new hurley tobacco:
Trash dark or damaged tobacco,
50 to $500; colory trash, So to 81 I;

The Constitutional Convention has,
according to the Couricr-JOurnal, cost
the State, approximately, $l30,754,
not including printing, mileage, sta
tionary, coal and gas. The expense is
for the following items: Per diems,
$lO5,93O; Presidents salary $2,140;
three clerks, $6,42O; Scrgeant-at-

$500; preachers, 5000; copying, $500
rents, $500; cloakroom-keeper, 1868,
and incidentals, $3.50. The cost ofprint-

total up to 100000.

Union, April 1lth, 1891, the following
resolutions and platform were adopted :
Whereas, 1t seeming that our in
tentions and purposes are not fully
understood and knowing we should be
in perfect accord and a unit on all es-
sential issues,we herein state what we
are for and to what we are opposed.
We are opposed to corporations for
the purpose of governing prices; to
subsidy on all vessels; to whisky in
bond for three years for the benefit OF
whisky corporations; to the demonita-
cation of silver; to National Banks 10
the government contributing public
lands to railroads or any other corpor-

credit to build railroads for the bcne-
fit Of corporations; or money or its
equivalent for the benefit of any cor.
poration; to custom or warehouses in
the interior for the benefit Of any class
to the exclusion of any other class; to
dealing in futures to the Lodge Bill
commonly called the Force Bill, or the
Government interfering with the fran
chise or elections ofany state exclusive
privileges to any.
We are for the Free Coinage of Silver ;
for custom or ware houses on sea coast
necessary for the export and import
and all producers to have equal
privileges and beneftfOr theirproducts

revenue only as alone prescribed by
the Constitution and economically adj
ministercd; for the restoring to the

cancelled and as much more as the
growth of business demands,not to ex-
coed fifty dollars per capita; for equal
privileges to all, therefore

their antagonism to ia and G3onId he
