a BRAVE MAN LYNcHEp.


Refused - Dstrsy His Friend Even 70
saye His Own Lifs.
PRINcsroN, Ky, Nov. L. News has
reached hero Of the lynohing of Eddy
Martin in Crittenden county by q mob
variously estimated at from fifty to hum
dred men. The scene of the lynching Is in
remote part Of the country and the do
tails Of the crime are hard to get.
The best obtainable information Is that
Martin was called upon at his home after
midnight and asked to get up and help
put out fire that was raging in the
neighborhood. On opening the door he
was seized by q dozen or more men, who
asked for information of Bill Goode, the
lawless pauper commissioner Of Critten-
den county. He was also asked about the
latter's crimes. Tho mob told him they
had come to hang him, but II he would
turn states evidence upon Bill Goode he
would be spared.
If these are the only terms, gentlemen"
said he, 'let the hanging proceed. Bill
Goode has been my friend, and will
shield him."
The mob quickly did its work and left
the body swaying from limb upon q lone
country road.
The hanging Is the result of the lawless
acts of the Goode- Rich gang In Crittenden
county. Goode, the leader, has been WIS.,
tied three times by mob, but escaped
each time.
Berry Rich was hanged about two weeks
ago, and the mob made q raid again last
week, but failed to find their man.

NEW YORK, Nov. YESTERDAY proceed
ings before the senate police investigating
committee were marked by succession Of
exciting incidents. Police Commissioner
Sheehan was on the witness stand all
through the day, except for a brief time
while his successor In the city comptroller
ship of Buffalo was examined as to the
condition in which he found the accounts
OF the city when they were turned over to
him. Mr.. Sheehan appeared in the court
room with his bank book, but when Mr..
Golf asked that 1t be submitted to the COM
mittee for examination the commissioner
fatty refused, even in the face Of the threat
from Chairman Lexow that such refusal
would result In a presentment to the grand
Jury. He said he would submit this book
when a specific accusation was made
against him, but not till then. His bank
account, he claimed, was his own affair.
Mr.. Golf led off with an intimation that
the commissioner had accepted bride of
$500 for an appointment to a sergeant
ship Of police, which was hotly denied by
Mr.. Shsehan-so hotly that Chairman
Lexow thought 1t necessary to admonish
him that he was laying himself open to
proceedings for contempt. Senator Cantor
added to the interest Of the moment by
questioning the right Of the chairman to
insist upon question until the committee
had taken a vote on IL. In the closing
scene Mr.. Golf worked up q climax by de-
nouncing Mr. Sheehan as q bride taker,
grand larcenist and defaulter. you're q

sioner, and with that the curtain was rung
down for the day.

CHICAGO, Nov. IL have Just been
over the road from Moukden to Shan
Kwan and 1t is as perfect as ever. Not
only that, but the road affords every faci1-
ity for the passing Of troops in winter from
Corea to the great wall near Pekin. The

at the Windsor hotel.
Mr.. Walker has been stationed in north
China by the English government for the
last nine years, and passed through Chi
cago on his way to London to make his re-
port Rev. John x. Roobison, mission
airy from Tienken, accompanied him. They
left Pekin about month ago.
Speaking of the war, Mr., Walker said:
Japan was obliged to engage in foreign
warfare to prevent repetition of the revo-
luton in 1871 in her own domain. For
years she has been preparing herself, not
only for that but she has carefully laid
out her campaign in China. For over
year draughtsmen and photographers have
traversed every part of China, until the
topography Of the country is better known
in Toxic than in Peking. The Japanese
commanders know that the correspondents
make mistake when they say that winter
will close the campaign. have been over

POLITICS IN new YORK.
The Fight Against Senator Hill in
the Empire State.
BOTH SIDES ARE UNDIsMAYED.

The Supporters of the Regular Democratic
Candidate. However, Arc Angry Because
the National Administration withholds
an Indorsement-Crisp to Speak for Hill.
NEW YORK, Oct B1.-The declaration Of
William R. Grace that the state Demoo-
racy organization Is suppoIsing David B.
Hill, and is not responsible for any
Wheeler pastors, Is received with incredul-
ity by many who still insist that secretly,
II not openly, that faction Is in favor OF
Hills defeat, and of rolling up as large q
vote as possible for Wheeler The adher-
ents Of the latter candidate are confident
that the Democratic reform ticket will
make a good showing on election day.
Many anti-Hil Democrats will, 1t Is gen.
orally believed, vote straight for Morton,
taking the ground, as one Of them re-
marked today, that vote for Wheeler will
be only half a vote against Hill and the
Wheeler votes are intended to aid Morton,
anyway.
The Hill men are as confident as ever.
referring with special satisfaction to the
personal fight their candidate is making
and to the enthusiasm with which he is
being received by his supporters. Most of
them, however, do not seek to conceal
their disappointment or anger that his
candidacy has not received open and active
encouragement from the national admin
istration.
The Republicans abate none Of their
claims, and insist that, with the general
Republican tendency this year and the
Democratic detection from Hill, the latter
will be showed under.
There has been but little betting SO far
in the campaign, but the representatives
of wagers at the Stock Exchange and else
where show odds on Morton not unfre-
quently of two to one. Smaller odds are
given on Strong against Grant, the per-
lection Of the Tammany organization
throughout the city making the support
ers of the committee Of seventy rather eau
tious about risking their money, however
much they anticipate great anti Tam
many uprising.
The Hill Democrats are pleased by the
announcement that Speaker Crisp, of the
house of representatives, had cancelled en-
gagements in order to speak in this city or
Brooklyn. They are much pleased by a
letter for Hill from c.. F. Black, chairman
of the National League of Democratic
Clubs.
The fact that Colonel Strong made brief
speeches Mt number of meetings last
night in the down town east side district
is regarded with much favor by the prac-
teal politicians who are allied with the
committee of seventy, as they think it will
have good effect on a class of voters who
always wish to see their candidate and
know something of his personality

to hold up his hands, but instead of doing

As he did so he was shot in the heart and
instantly killed. The masked men then
