Some of the most respected citizens
and their families, representing every
professional and mercantile pursuit,
may be seen in Central park on any
fine day during the outdoor season.
At the head Of the list rides Bishop
Potter. There is no more ardent devo-
tee of the saddle, nor more frequent
habitue of the bride path than this dis
tinguished gentleman. and trow he
has obtained many an inspiration for
the expression of profound and holy
truths as he rode through the nave Of

Many another member of the sacred

KANSAS CITY JAIL

AttaclCod by Mob, hut, Owing TO
Nervy Guard, Murderer Mccoy stll
Lives.
A crowd Of 500 negroes attacked the
county Jail at Kansas City Wednesday
night with the intention of lynching
VIM. Mccoy, who brutally murdered
his MISTRESS Nellie McGruder, last Sum
day by beating her head to a jelly with
stones. A previous attempt to lynch
Mccoy was made last Monday at the
time Of his preliminary trial, but the
prison was so well guarded that the
attempt was abandoned. The sher-
iff concluded that the excitement
among the negroes had subsidized suffi.
ciently to warrant the withdrawal of
the extra guards, and when the attack
Wednesday night was made it was
wholly unexpected The colored peo-
pie gathered quietly about the building,
and at 12:45 twenty of their number,
masked and otherwise disguised, broke
into the outer door and Immediately pro-
ceeded to that part of the building which
is partitioned off for a Jail. This is
separated from the rest of the building
by stout iron door. Only the guard
was on duty. He drew his re-
volver and threatened to shoot the first
man who approached the door. The
committee of twenty, after some parley-
ing withdrew and joined their comrades
outside. After a further parley the en-
tire mob dispered. The guards have
been doubled in anticipation of fur
ther attack.

Willis Howard, the notorious Ken
lucky outlaw, who gained a national
reputation through his connection with
the famous Howard Turner Bailey feud
in Kentucky, and who is credited with
having killed at least twenty-one men,

jail Friday night, where he had been
placed some two months ago for safe

had arranged for Howard's rescue
when the transfer was made. Hearing
of this, the jailer at the Four Courts an
nounced that Howard would not be
started for Maries until Saturday morn
ing, and then slipped his prisoner off on
the night train, ironed and chained to a
seat. Six desperate-loolsing men, wear

the same time, and it is feared an at
tempt will yet be made to rescue him

BLOODY RIOT.
Tho Fight Occurs at a Fire,
Through Obstructing Firemen.
Firemen, Police, Roughs and Merchants
In the Melee, and Twenty Persons
Are Badly Injured.

A serious riot occurred at Kingston,
Just across the river from Willkesbarre,
Pa, Thursday afternoon, while the
local fire brigade was engaged in ex-
tinguishing n fire. Mitchell Duffy,
from Edwardsville, forced his way in-
side the lines. Upon refusing to get
out, the firemen turned the hose on
him. A number of Edwardsville
men who were watching the fire be-
came angry at this, and jumping over the
ropes attacked the firemen fercely,
The latter stoutly defended themselves,
and in n short time no less than twenty
five men were engaged in a hand-to-
hand encounter. Stones, clubs,
wrenches and everything that could be
used as a weapon, were welded.
The fremen were soon outnumbered,
and were on the point of beating re-
treat, when the police appeared
and engaged at once with the
rioters. Meantime reinforcements
arrived from Edwardsville, and
the battle became general. The
business men along Main street, seeing
the police beaten back by the Edwards
vile people, took a hand in the affray.
The fight was long and bloody, and
when, at the end of an hour, the Ed
wardsville forces were put to fight,
there were no less than twenty men
badly injured on each side. Broken
heads, noses and limbs kept the doctors
of both towns busy for hours, and it is
feared that two or three may die from
their injuries. Duffy was arrested and
is now in Jail

bay, and sank soon afterward. There
are still sixty-four victims of the
disaster to be accounted for. All the
valuables and property recovered from
the wreck and the dead bodies have
been handed over to the Italian consul,
who publicly expressed his governments
deepest gratitude for the assistance
rendered by those on board the English

accident to the drowning passengers,
and for the bravery which they display

One of the most distressing accidents
in the history of the Washington, Pa.

small boys of Thomas Munce, well

ship, were playing along the pike,
and found n partly empty glycerine
can in fence corner, near their home.
The boys, not understanding the dan
gerous character of the stuff, stood the
can up in the road and began throwing
stones at it. One rock struck the can
and terrible explosion followed
which could be heard for miles. Two
of the boys were blown to atoms. The

MINERS WILL QUIT MAY |.
They Are Determined to Enforce the
Eight-Hour Day.


PITTsBURGH, Pa, April 10.-The joint
Interstate convention of coal operators
and miners split Thursday and the
fight for eight hours was declared by
the latter. The miners opened the ball
in the morning by having special
committee on hours appointed The
committee reported to the convention
that it could not come to any agree
ment, and President Rae of the miners
union submitted the following:
''First-That a reduction in the compensa-
ton of day labor relative to the reduction in
hours will be allowed.
'Second-That we proceed to make wage
scale with the understanding that eight hours
shall be days work after May without the
operators official Endorsement, and II it does
not generally prevail within reasonable time
the miners will not insist on its enforcement"
The operators refused to grant this,
and in wild confusion the operators ad-
journed the convention sine die.
Col. Rend, of Chicago, said after the
meeting: "a strike, and most serious
one, seems to be ahead of us. If the
miners of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and
Pennsylvania lay down their tools May
1 it will paralyze the business. An inn
mense number of manufactures will
close down. At least 100000 people
are directly interested in the matter" :"
The sensation of the convention was
disclosed Thursday night. 1t was
definitely stated by the miners that the
railroads of the country were back of
the operators in their fight against the
eight-hour movement; that the fight
80 1.
would extend to the railroads also and
the sooner it was throttled the
better. Also that the eight-hour move
might have some influence on the rates
paid for coal, and for this reason, too,
the railroads were opposed to it. The
operators conceded that some western
roads were concerned in supporting the
fight against eight hours, but they de-
MED that any concerted move had been
made Ivy the railroads of the country.
