intention of lynching William Mccoy,

Nellie McGruder, last Sunday night.
An attempt to lynch Mccoy was made

The Sheriff concluded the excitement
among the negroes had subsidized and

The attack tonight was totally unex-
pected.
About l o'clock a crowd of negroes
gathered in the vicinity of the Jail, and
quickly made a rush and broke in the
outer door. The portion of the building
partitioned for the jail is separated from
the other part by stout iron door. Only
one guard was on duty, but he threatened
to shoot the first man who approached
the door, and the lynching committee.

CHICAGO, April Sat midnight to-
night both Republicans and Democrats
were claiming to be the victors in the ex-
citing election for the Mayoralty.
Each side, however, had practically
minimized its claim to plurality of 200
or 800.
The official count to begin tomorrow
is awaited with Impotence. The Demo-
Gratis put forward assertions that many
votes for Elmer Washburn, the Citizens
candidate, were counted for Hampstead
Washburn. On the other hand, the Re-
publicans protest that in one precinct
alone at the stocllyards over hundred
votes were deposited for names that were
refused registration, and that some of the
names are those of persons who have
been dead for weeks and months. In
this particular precinct it is charged that
the affairs were so manipulated that
every Judge and clerk, without excep-
tion, were Democrats, and the plurality
for Cregier was something abnormal.
Not few people tonight were inclined
to believe the many alleged mistakes and
changes in the estimates were in the in
terest of the gambling fraternity, and
were designed to give certain big book
makers chance to hedge out on their
bets.

him if he could identify the Chinaman

ARTEMUs WARDS HEIRS.
His Alleged Widow and Children Afte
His Estate.


New YORK, April S.--The World spe-
cial says that J. A. Brown of Blooming
ton, ILL.,, has come to this city to prove
his venerable mothers claim as widow
to the estate of the late Charles F. Brown
(Artemus Ward).
So firmly convinced are the widow and
children-all grown men-that the great
humorist was the husband and father
who left them in Kentucky thirtv-six
years ago that they regard with disdain
even the biographical record of the birth
of Brown in Maine in 1884, only year
before the claimant was married.
The widows claim is supported by a
large number of affidavits, sworn to by
persons who knew Charles T. Brown in
Kentucky and Ohio at the time of his
marriage, and afterwards identified him
as Artemus Ward, lecturer and humorist.
The Charles L. Brown who married her,
the widow declares, afterward became
known as Artemus Ward, who left her to
go on lecturing tour in 1856, and whom
she never saw again.

ROME, April 8.-The will of the late
Prince Napoleon is remarkably precise in
its directions for the obsequies. The

ment refuses permission, in which case
