LYNCHED IN A court
The Wretch Swung to Stair
railing by a Mob.

Lynchers Urged on by a Woman,
Who Supplied the Rope-A Com
mittee From the Mob Visits the
Jail Later to Make Sure That
Their Victim Was Dead.
OrTUMwA, Ia, Nov. 22.-An excited
and angry mob hung Fred Gustaveson on
the stair railing of Justice Truths court
room yesterday afternoon
Gustaveson assaulted the little 4-year-
old girl of Jonas Sax about tn o'clock
Monday night.
The brute was promptly arrested short
ly after committing the crime and lodged
in jail Yesterday morning he was t,ken
to the Sax house and positively Identified
by the little girl and a compani n, wno
was enticed to room with the little Sax
girl, but was permitted to leave after get
ting inside the room. After assaultng
the child Gustaveson turned her out, AMI
with difficulty she succeeded in reachn :
home in terrible condition and related
her horrible experience to her parents.
Her father went to police headq uarters
and soon after Capt. Harmon had Gus
taveson behind the bars of the county
Jail.
At o'clock yesterday afternoon Gus
taveson was taken quietly to Justice
TRUTHS Office for arraignment.
The news that the man was in Trultt's
court spread with wonderful rapidity, and
in less than 20 minutes crowd Of per-
haps thousand was surging around the
stairway leading to the court room, trying
to get at the prisoner.
The mother of the little girl succeeded
in getting to the top of the stairs and from
the platform in front of the court room
swung rope, and, together with her aged
father, appealed to the crowd below to
hang Gustaveson.
Sheriff Mcintyre and Mayor Force ap-
pealed to the crowd for peace and silence
but all in vain.
A number of men after great effort
succeeded in gaining admission to the
court room. No sooner were they ON the
inside than they attempted to open the
doors to admit their friends.
This precipitated fight with the court

THE oHAReK WAS FALSE.

The Jurymen who Were with Mr..
O,Connor I'm a Recent Suit I'm the
Court of Common Pleas Deny That
He Was Intoxicated.
Several days ago in the court Of common
pleas the suit of J. @. Hofer against F. ].
jackson to recover $50 was tried and re-
suited in the jury rendering verdict for
the plaintiff Afterwsrd 1t was asserted
that one of the jurymen, James O'Connor
of Branford, was either asleep or inted-
Gated during portion of the trial. At
torney W. A. Wright, counsel for Jssk-
son, gave notice of an appeal and this ap-
peal was to be argued at the superior court
yesterday afternoon. Attorney Chase,
counsel for Hofer, was present but At
torney Wright failed to appear and the
inference is that the case has been
| dropped.
The following received unsolicited by
Mr.. O'Connor, who is an honorable and
reputable citizen of Branford, from ths
ether members of the jury tells its OWL
story:
| We, the undersigned who composed the jury
/ that tried the case OF O. Hofer against r. j
jackson In the court OF common pleas for New
Haven unity having heard that story was be
ing circulated to the effect that one Of our mum
Der, James O'Connor OF Brantord, was inten

: was acting as juror, hereby brand said storJ
as false, we affirm that he was not intoxicated.

YALE LAW SCHOOL VS.. n. Z. A. Q.

YALE LAW SCHOOL VS.. N. Y. A. @.
The Law school Team Has Arranged
n Game TO be Played Next Week at
the Yale Fteld-A Large Crowd
Expected.
When Yale voted to have nothing but
an undergraduate ball team this year, and
then the Yale law school team was formed,
an impression somehow was gained that
the future legal lights had formed q ball
nine that was as strong, indeed If not
stronger, than their college brethren. Since
teams began playing this season their work
has been watched critically by the support
ers of both mines with view of determin-
ing which Is the stronger. So far the un-
dergraduate team has done very little that
would make the breasts of Its hackers
swell with pride, while the law school nine
has beaten the best semi professional team
| In the state and administered to Wesleyan
| Its first defeat. All of the students want
| to see the two teams play each other, but
| whether they will or not Is still matter
| of guesswork.
This week the college team was beaten
by the New York Athletic clab in New
| York and now the cranks will have q
chance to Judge the strength of the two
teams as Manager Durant of the law school
team has booked the New York Athletic
club team to play the embryo lawyers at
the Yale field on Wednesday afternoon OF
next week. Doubtless the game will draw
| out a big crowd as q majority of the
| students will attend, and 1t can be truth.
fully said that many hundred townspeople
will also go as the law school team has
many staunch supporters among them. L
would not be surprising If the N. Y. A. O.
should win as the law school players are
not in the best of condition yet. How
ever, Bowers will pitch and he will make
| the New Yorkers hustle to win.

VISITS THE STATE PRISON,

EASAAS 1hE . TATE PRISON.
Governor Morris Gives His Opinion
of Wethersfield as He Saw 1t Yester-
day.
Governor Morris visited the state prison
at Wethersield yesterday afternoon in
company with Senator Jones, chairman of
the investigating committee, and said last
night to reporter on his return here, that
the prison at the present time was in ex-
cellent condition. I went through the
entire prison, said he, and found both the
cells and dungeons clean and neat. The
dungeons are so constructed, that under
the jurisdiction of an austere and cruel
official culprit could be made to suffer
greatly. The state Of Connecticut has
reason to be well satisfied with its state
prison in it's appearance at the present
time

PRomPr ACTION TAKEN.

The hoard OF Education VIII Instruct
Attorney Watrous to Commence
Condemnatory Proceedings ON the
Land Desired for tho Manual Train
ing School-Several Changes Among

From present indications 1t would seem
that the proposed manual training and

ties. At the meeting Of the board of edu-
cation last evening decisive steps were
taken in this direction and the matter will
be pushed forward as rapidly as possible.
Every member of the board was in his
seat except Mr.. Strong and Eli Whitney,
j., who Is still Ill.
President Graves brought up the ques-
ton of the erection of the manual training
school, saying that prompt action should
be taken in the case of commencing the
eondemnatory proceedings. This opinion
was shared by the board and the president
was empowered to secure the services of
Attorney George D. Watrous and instruct
him to institute the proceedings at once.
An architect will also commence on the
the plans at once.
In consequence of the absence of two
members of the board the election of q su-
perintendent of schools for the ensuing
year, which should have taken place last
evening, was postponed until the second
meeting in May.
Upon the recommendation of the COM
mittee of the board to which the matter
was referred the date of the close of the
| school year was changed to June 80, the
| change of date to take effect in 1894.
The designations of Miss Northrup, Miss
Sara B. Wilkinson Of Washington school,
Miss Hortense A. Darling of Woolsey
| school and Miss Edwina B. Martin of
Weloh school were accepted, and leave of
| absence granted to Miss Eleanor N. How'd
| of Winchester school and Miss F. T. Nun
| son of Dixwell avenue school.
In the Halleck school-Miss Margaret e..
| Duggan was advanced from 81 to 5, M.
| Grace Beecher transferred from 81 Carlisle,
aud Miss Ada B. Ksrr of the Oswego train
| ing school appointed to at salary of
$3.50 per annum.
Miss Lottie N. Hall was assigned as as
sistant in the kindergarten at Edward
street school and Miss Rebecca Fleetwood

LAID AT REST.

Impressive Funeral Sermon The
Burial of H. Webster Stow.
The funeral services of H. Webster Stow
were conducted from his late residence,
1241 Chapel street yesterday afternoon at
$3.50 O'Clock. There was very large at
tendance of Borrowing friends, included
among whom were many representative
men in the business community, friends
and associates of the deceased, the manu-
featuring, mercantile and banking fra
ternities being numerously represented.
The house was filed to overlooking. Rev.
Mr.. Poteat of Calvary Baptist church,
where the deceased had 80 long been one
of the leading active members, and the
Rev. Mr.. Mason, pastor of the First Bap-
fist church, where the father of deceased has
been an hoaored and beloved deacon for
fifty years, oficisted at the sad occasion. It
was an hour of sad parting to many
hearts to whom the death of the deceased
comes as the severing of ties of friendship
and esteem of long duration. Both pastors
made remarks BETTING the sad occasion,
Rev. Mr.. Poteat in speaking of deceased,
said the first letter he ever received from
New Haven came from the deceased: the
first man he ever met in New Haven was
the deceased, and the friendship thus be-
gun had grown and became q tender bond
of union and fellowship. It was dischsro-
ing personal obligation of loving regard
to speak of the deceased. He spoke of the
high Christian character of the sleeper, his
noble standards of thought and action,
and his useful career and devotion to the
interests of the church and religion. Both
pastors made beautifully appropriate re.
marks.
A quartette sang very finely selections
appropriate to the hour of bereavement
and separation.
The oasket bore Q massive, lovely burden
of choice lilies, and at Its foot was vase
filed with lilies and large palm leaves.
From the employees of the deceased there
was q splendid, very large scroll which
stood three or four feet In height, com
posed of ivy leaves and beautiful roses.
and appropriately inscribed.
The honorary bearers were President
Pierce N. Wsleh of tho First National
bank, e. r. Mersick, of English & Mer-
sick, ex-Msyor George r. Holcomb, Charles
E. Alling, president of the George Alling
Sons company, F. r. Bliss, George &.
Burton, of Cannon & Burton, W. A. Spal-
ding, the druggist, and A. J. Harmount,
Of Halsted, Harmount d Co. Mr.. George
T. Bradley, of Benedict & Co., Church
street, was master Of ceremonies. After
last look ct the face of the sleeper had
been taken by the people present. the fu-
neral procession proceeded to the new
cemetery, where the tnterment took place.

A SLIGHT FIRE

At the State ArmOry-The Bullet Hit
the Gas Pipe.
An alarm from box "a called out the fire
department last night on fruitless errand.
While practicing in the shooting gallery
one Of the guns became loaded, Janitor
Walker put an extra cartridge in the gun
to eject the bullet, which, in firing, struck
the gas pipe. Mr.. Walker smelling the
gas went down stairs with light to ascer-
tain the cause. The escaping gas took fire
with slight explosion, but the blaze was
soon subdued. Janitor Walker was about
to give a still alarm from the residence of
DR.. Mailhouse, when someone sounded tho
alarm. The damage did not amount to
over a couple of dollars.
