The police allowed two of the men to
enter the bakery to ask for bread.
These men demanded food from the

A Rate War Would BE Disastrous

CHICAGO, May 6.-The Western roads
are anxiously awaiting the action of the
California lines, among whom there is
a growing sentiment in favor of putting
back the rates from California points.
A move of this kind would be received
with wild applause by all roads in
terested. both for the sake of increased
revenue and because of the effect it
would have on the Denver Il Rio
Grande and Colorado Midland fight,
which is the only thing which now
keeps kown the rates. A strong effort
will be made to settle matters before
May 20. the day on which the Atchison

if this road once begins general
slaughter of rates it will make the
chance for profits during the duration

Tower, Mimi, May 6.-John Do
meauW, the rascal who assaulted two
little girls in the woods near Mountain
Iron yesterday afternoon, is making his
eternal sleep in pine box. The wretch
was lynched shortly before 2 o'clock
this afternoon by a determined band Of
infurlated miners. Last night, as soon
as it was learned that the deed had been
committed, the word was passed around
the mining camps, and work was at
once suspended. A party of dozen
which first started in the search for the
miscreant was in half an hour aug
mented by a hundred others, and
throughout the night the search was
kept up without obtaining even a clue
of where the man had secreted himself.
AS soon as daylight appeared this morn
ing over 200 men joined in securing the
hills and woods in the vicinity of the
Scene of the Crime,
and every place of possible concealment
was gone over again and again. At
noon today the SearcherS were rewarded
for their efforts by the discovery of the
brute, hidden behind pile Of rubbish
in the rear of saloon. The man had
not left the mining village, and when he
learned last night of the fact that large
parties were out in search of him, made
his way to the saloon, where he was
found, not emerging throughout the
long hours Of the night or during the
forenoon. Immediately upon his dis
cOvery at noon, the news spread among
the searchers, and by l o'clock a ma
jority of them were assembled In the
village and preparations for lynching
were Immediately proceeded with. AT
1:90 o'clock the arrangements we're all
completed, and in the midst of band
of resolute miners, the man was
HaIf-Dragged, Half Carried
to an opening in the woods on the out
skirts of the place. The cries of ''kill
him" "shoot him" " "burn him" "hang
him." were heard on every side, and
when the clearing was reached rope
had already been thrown over pro-
jecting limb. The frightened villain
was notified that he would be allowed
only ten minutes to live, and asked if he
had anything to say. He was too badly
frightened to articulate sound, and
when the few moments of respite had
expired hundred hands hauled upon
the rope, the other end of which was
tied about the neck of their victim. In
a moment the body was dangling in the
air ten feet above the ground, and as
the last expiring tWinges of his limbs
told them that the moment of death was
at hand a score of revolver bullets were
fired into his body. There was no at
tempt at concealment on the part of
those taking part in the lynching, and
there will be no attempt made to arrest
them. One of the children outraged is
likely to die.
