Sp,cial TELEGRAM to ths Rooster.
CHARLESTON, w. VA, August 22.-
w. NJ. o. Dawson, chairman Of the Re
publican State Committee, Edgar
Rucker, Republican candidate for Con-
gress in the Third district and Joseph
Beaurey, of Fayette, have been here for
two days comforting with prominent
local Republican leaders about matters
pertaining TO the interests OF the Re
publican canvass in this dlstSlct.
Beaurey Is a coal operator in Fayette
counto rnd is very wealthy. lie Is
Fuckers hacker and is willing to spend
large amount OF money to secure
Rucker's election. The leading topic
discussed at the conference yesterday
ond to-day is the matter OF establishing
a Republican Gailp paper in this
place, The gentlemen who are at the
head OF this scheme besides Mr. Beuary
are j. 81. Huling, FREQ CJlburn and >.
Z. Dana, Of Charleston. These gentle
men not only have no faith In the
ability and loyalty of the Star Tribune
publishers TO conduct an effective organ
in the coming canvass, but nearly all
these men cherish a cordial dislike for
the gentlemen at the head of the paper.
1t will be remembered that at the time
the Tribune fopped over and came TO
the support of Johnson Camden In
1877 for the United States Senatoship,
there was general row among the
stockholders and partners Of that
journal the (Tribme), and a private
suggine match in the Tribune Office
with closed doors, in which Reber, one
OF the publishers, on one side, and Col.
Dana, Purcell and others on the other,
engaged in a knock down, and in which
several OF them emerged pretty well
battered up. Since that time the rela-
tions between the publishers OF the
Tribune has been somewhat strained, 70
say the least, and they deem 10 eXpedi-
ent now 70 have a new deal. The prop
oSition is 70 establish a first-class daily
paper, which is % secure regular tele-
graphic press service and employ a
strong editorial writer. To-day they
have benn negotiating with the pub
fishers OF the West 'IginiG Republican,
the weekly Republican paper here, %
buy out the plant, aud have also been
figuring on the cost OF some large
presses and the printing material. The
probabilities are that within a fort-
night new daily Republican paper
will make its appearance in this city.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, August ga
sensational episode occurred last night
at Coal Creek. The leader Of the most
daring, most lawlesS and most trouble
soma body OF miners was Bud Lindsay.
To his macbinationS mas been due much
of the turbulence on the creek. lie
has made himself 50 obnoxious 70 the
more conservative miners and TO the
citizens not i'm sympathy with the riot
ing. that he has been a marked hgure,
and only his keeping within safe dis
tance OF the military since his capture,
and generally between four walls, has
prevented his being killed. For sew
er9l plphts he was confined in an old
mine. and the mouth guarded by a
large SQUAD of soldiers. Affairs during
the day have been so quiet, the sub
mission OF the miners so general, that
the watch was somewhat relaxed and
Lindsay had lost some Of his fear, and
wandered more widely within the Ell
closure.
Last night, in some way that no one
seems to understand, four citizens man
AGED 10 sieze and silence him, and In
the dusk slipped him between the pick
cts. lie was hurried up the valley tow
ard Brlceville, and the mob, @hich
gained force at almost every step, hur-
ried him forward, fearing alarm and
pursuit by soldiers. The journey was
not ended until Briceyille, the scene OF
the labor trouble last year, and the
home OF the more conservative class or
miners, was reached.
Once there a rope was secured and
placed around his neck. His true char
acter was soon seen. Though cons.d-
cred a desperate man, and although De
hasa dozen murders 90 his account. De-
broke down aud pleaded Tor his liie

was taken from his neck and be was

IL is now believed that with his testi-
mony twenty or thirty leaders can be
successfully tried for murder and con-
yicted.

Scheme for President Harrison 10 MAKO

New YORK, August 23.-The Herald
says: Close friends Of Mr.. Harrison having
said that he could carry the State OF New
York alone and unaided, the Republican
State Committee has decided 70 give him u
fair and square chance 20 do II.
II has been decided by Chairman Brook
field and Executive Chairman Hackett 10
ask the President, when he has completed
his stay at Loon Lake, 10 undertake
a speech making tour OF this State.
The subject was originally men
toned by Senator Hiscock, who has be-
come convinced that something Of most
extraordinary character must be done TO
carry the State. Mr.. Hiscock urged II so
strong that IL finally found favor with tho
State Committee, and the only thing now
necessary 70 make il an assured fact IS the
consent OF Mr.. Harrison.
The State Committee has laid the plan
before the President, but no reply has yet
been received from him. If he answers in
the affirmative a special train will be char
tered the first week in September and a
schedule will be made out for as much OF
the State as can be covered in a week.

He said, regarding the convict labor
troubles I'm Tennessee;
"The Tennessee Coal and Iron Com
pany will renew its offer TO surrender

ture will then have 10 determine

anti-convict voters by looking about for
another company that IS willing 10 pay

One thing is certain, that when the
Tennessee Coal and Iron Company once
gives up It's lease it will never again em-
ploy Convict labor.
