SHOT DEAD ON HISTRAIN.
LEESBURG WILD OVER TIE KILL
ING OF a CONDUCTOR.

A Thousand Men Hunting for the Black
Murderer - Thousand Negroes
Threaten to save Rim From Lynch
ing a Isloody Race Clash Feared.
An Order to GO Into the Negro Oar
the Cause of the Crime.
LEEsBURG, FLA. Dec. 27.-Nearly 1000
armed men in Lake county are securing the
woods between the Florida Central and
Peninsular railroad tracks and the shores of
Lake Hahn in search of fugitive negro
murderer and about as many negroes armed
with Winchesters, are scattered about the
city and suburbs, proclaiming that they will
protect him from lynching il brought in
here. just before daylight this morning J..
E. Parramore, a well-known conductor on
the Florida Central and Peninsular rail-
road, was shot and instantly killed
while on his train, not far
from here, by Thomas E. Mike, a negro
who keeps colored barber shop in this
city. lt was one OF the most unprovoked,
brutal and cowardly murders ever COM
mitted in this state.
CAUSE OF THE CRIME.
Mike got on the train here with a ticket
for Orlando and took a seat in
the coach for white passengers.
When Conductor Perramore came through
the car to take up tickets and collect fares
he approached Mike, asked him for his
ticket. took it up aud then politely requested
him 60 go into the car for colored peo-
pie. Mike was surly and refused growing
out some insulting language half under his
breath. Then the conductor ordered him
out of the car peremptorily and the negro
obeyed.
THE MURDER.
Five minutes later Conductor Parramore
entered the colored coach and when he was
about five feet in front Of the negro's seat
Mike suddenly jumped TO his feet, pulled a
revolver from his pocket. rushed into the
aisle, took step or two toward Conductor
Parramore, took deliberate aim and fired at
him. He could nos have been more than
three feet behind his victim and his aim was
good. The ball entered Conductor PARA
more's head just behind the right ear and
he fell forward In the aisle dead.
ESCAPE OF THE MURDERER.
Mike rushed to the platform, jumped
from the train and disappeared in the
woods. The train was run back to the
station with the bsdy of the murdered
man. An inquest was held, and then Sheriff
Galloway organized posse to search for
the fugitive. They have six bloodhounds
with them, and it is the general opinion
here that Mike cannot escape.
IN TRAP.
He ran south from the railroad to Lake
Hahn. In almost any other direction he
could perhaps have eluded his pursuer, but
he Is penned in between the railroad and
the shores Of the lake, aud has only q small
three-cornered piece OF country to conceal
himself in. The people still Ia town feel
sure that the murderer will be caught and
be lypched before midnight, unless the
negroes succeed in taking him from the
sheriff, when bloody race conflict would
be sure to follow. The Leesburg Rifles,
about sixty In number. have been ordered
out to preserve the peace in town, as the
negroes threaten IL.

Thurman within the last nine days. The

$50 o'clock. The night was very dark, and
the would-be assassin fired on him from In
front as be was going toward the railway
station. He fired two shots in return, but
the darkness prevented him from seeing

Does the United States.
PARIS, Dec 27.-M. Tierard, formerly
French minister of finance, in an in,
terview on the subject OF the negotiations
for a commercial treaty between France
and the United States said: "Treaties Of
this kind as useful are a modus vfvendi be-
tween Countries where the tariffs are so
high that they paralyzeItrade. A treaty
with the United States will be extremely
opportune and will go long way TO secure
our enthusiastic participation IN the Chicago
iair. The Mckinley law has so much
harmed our trade that would
favor going to the United States for
staples only when IL Is impossible
60 obtain what we need elsewhere. The
Mckinley administrative bill is a barbarous
piece of legislation and has caused great ILL
feeling in France. The whole Mckinley
law Is due to an error in Judgment. Ameri-
cans argued that as their exports we're
natural products that other nations must
nave, they would be sure 70 find buyers and
80 they could shut their ports to foreign
manufactures. This reason is fallacions
The population of the United States
might easily increase TO four times the
present figures IN twenty years. In that
case America would become a still greater
exporting country.
BENEFITS OF FREE TRADE.
Look how England has developed since
she adopted free trade. If the United
States were to adopt like policy America
would soon govern the market of the
whole world. By following the policy of
prohibitory protection she restricts her
future to the limits of home consumption.
In France where it is impossible to develop
our resources any further there may be
some excuse for protection, but not so in
America, where the possibilities for de-
velopment are unbounded.n
