Pieces Cut From the Victims Body and
Sent to His Friends, as Hints That the
Ransom Must he Paid--A Story of
Atrocity and Crime That Reads Like IL
Romance.
SAN FRANCISCO, Call, Aug. 27.-Ad-
vices from Shanghai state that a gang of
BOO armed pirates are creating havoc in
the provinces of Wenchow.
Their progress through the country
has been marked by the most cruel and
-blooded crimes. Villages have been
burned right and left by them when re-
fused hospitality, and the inhabitants,
men, women and children, slaughtered
by the miscreants.
The object of tho pirates seems to be
to capture influential people and hold
them for ransom. They have already
seized the grandson and only living
relatives of wealthy old man living
near Wenchow, and they have sent re-
peated demands for large amount of
money to the afflicted grandfather,
accompanied on each occasion by piece
OF the unfortunate boys flesh. One day
o slice of his ear, another day q strip of
skin taken from his back, and so on.
Recently the gang has been travelling
southwark looting, burning and murder
ing as they proceeded.
When the consul at Wenchow first
became convinced of the alarming state
OF affairs, he took such measures as were
in his power for the protection of the
residents. He has been trying to ar
range matters with local officials. The
number of the pirates is variously esti-
mated but the general opinion is that
there must be 500 armed and desperate
men.

CHICAGO, Aug. 31.-A dispatch from
Martinsville, Ind, says: A similar
lynching to the one enacted in Shelby
vile u week ago was narrowly ayerted
in this city last night The causes that
would have led to the same were strik-
ingly similar Dillon Core, young IN
married farmer, was drinking and very
quarrelsome. During the afternoon
officer Cox was attempting his arrest,
when Core plunged the blade of knife
into him, then coolly walked up crowded
street with the knife open in his hand.
The officer called out: "Catch him, he
stabbed me, but the crowd stepped back
TO allow him to pass.
Two hours later he was arrested near
the city limits and brought back through
the crowded streets and it was thought
for time he would suffer death at the
hands of fast organizing mob. Some
one threw half brick at him during
the excitement and it struck j. Fl.
Hart, o prominent business man who
was attempting to dispel the mob,
squarely in the forehead. Half an hour
of the hardest work was necessary TO
lodge him in Jail, two squares away.
He was disarmed of revolver, pair OF
brass knuckles and knife. Mr.. Cox
was stabbed below the left arm pit, the
blade entering the lung. He Is about 10
years OF age, and his recovery Is doubt
full.

ing both arms in several places and cut
ting two deep gashes in her back. The
child was mass Of bruises. 1t is prob
able that both will die. The negress

Perils of Ariel Navigation.

PEORIA, ILL.,, Aug. 31.-George A.
Sherber, an aeronant, had a trying ex-
perience last night. Balloon ascensions
and parachute leaps are an almost every
day occurrence here, where aeronants
are trained, but no sort of accident has
ever occurred. Sherber made an ascen-
sion from Central Park and rose 1000
feet. Before cutting his parachute loose
he aimed to land on the Tazewell county
side, but fell in the lake instead He
had desperate time in keeping his head
above water until rescuing party rowed
out. Julius Curle, who assembled from
Selhy Park, fell into net of wires and
live electric wire shocked him terribly.
His screams attracted a big crowd, and
a telephone lineman went up and cut
the wire.

james Anderson's Love for His Family
Led to His Arrest.

LEU 10 Ills hffests
CINCINNATI, Aug. 31.-Detectives ar.
rived from Cleveland this morning with
James Anderson, the prisoner whose
Sensational arrest and still more sensa-
tional escape from Hamilton county jail
has given him prominence. Anderson
was suspected of being burglar. His
house on Price Hill was watched, and
one night an attempt was made to capture
him and confederate. Anderson
and the policemen both used revolvers.
The confederate escaped. Anderson was
shot in the leg and sent to jail to await
trial. Six weeks ago he escaped. Every
effort was made to show that he had
broken Jail, but it was discovered that
he had been liberated by money and
fonr jail officials have been discharged
Chief of Police Dietsch knowing that
Anderson was passionately fond of his
wife and babies has kept close watch
on them. When they went to Cleve-
land, Saturday night, he caused de-
tective to follow, and when Anderson
met his family he was arrested.
Anderson declares he will not betray
his liberators in the Jail, though he does
not deny that he bought his freedom.
He says the proposition was made and
he accepted 1t. He will return to Jail.
It is probable that he may again buy his
liberty, not with money but with infor-
nation leading TO the conviction of the
men who were bribed to allow him to
escape.

Refused Permission to Take His Wife
and sister From Their steamer--A Gus
tom But Twice Broken.
NEW York, Aug. 31.-There is an
unwrltten law of the custom house
against transferring women from steam
ships to small craft down the bay. 1t
has only been done twice since the
foundation of the government. Nellie
Grant Sartoris was taken off an incom-
ing steamer, because her father, the
general, was dying at Mount McGregor,
and Miss Folsom, Cleveland's bride,
when she arrived from Europe to be
married to the President, was taken
from the Noordland after dark, and,
being transferred to cutter, was
brought quickly to the city several hours
before the steamer reached her own
pier. Mrs Russell Harrison and
Mrs. Mckee, daughter-in-law and
daughter of President Harrison, will
arrive from Europe Wednesday on
the steamer Majestic, Of the White Star
Line. They have been travelling in
Europe, and have been recipients of
marked social attention in London and
Paris. Russell Harrison last week APP
piled to Collector Fassett for permission
to transfer his wife and sister from the
Majestic on her arrival down the bay
to the United States revenue cutter
Grant, the use of which for this pur-
pose being included in his request. The
cutters Washington and Chandler are
the boats used for the purpose, but Mr.
Harrison wanted the Grant. Collector
Fassett did not want to take the respon-
sibility Of granting the request, and so
referred the matter to President Harri-
sons Secretary of the Treasury. Mr.
Harrison was at the custom house this
afternoon, and was informed of Secre-
tary Fosters answer. 1t was mega
tive. Mr.. Harrison is said to have been
very much chagrined, and it is not
known what he will do now. Mrs.
President Harrison and several friends
were to have been of the party on the
Grant.
