I'll give you a pointer which don n't forget. my son. Never holler murder as most people do when the midnight assassin steals upon you. Worst thing in the world you can do Nobody'll come.

 CLEVELAND, April l6.-Seymour Newlin, a negro with bad reputation, committed a criminal assault upon an aged woman named Mrs. Knowles, living at Rushsyl- vania, Logan county, o. Hewas captured, but when the sheriff arrived from Belle fontaine to take charge of the prisoner a mob which had collected refused to give him up.
 The sheriff summoned posse but still the mob would not yield. A call was then made upon the militia, and company left Bellefontaine for the scene of the trou- ble. The crowd of infuriated citizens were appraised of the coming of the military, and long before their arrival they were armed and massed around the calaboose to receive them.
 When the company arrived at the build ing, hundred voices warned them that the citizens were determined that blood would flow before the prisoner would be surrendered; that any effort at force would be useless, as dynamite bombs were under the building, and that the prisoner would be blown to atoms if gun was fired.
 Sheriff Sullivan then held a long barley with the leaders of the mob, and it was finally decided that if Sheriff Sullivan would order the militia back to Bellefon. taine the citizens would guard the prisoner until morning and give him q hearing in Rushsylvania, and that Sheriff Sullivan would make no further attempt to get the man until after the trial The dynamite talk was supposed to be a bluff, but after the departure of the soldiers no less than six bombs were hauled from under the cala boose. It was generally believed that Newlin would be lynched.
 After the troops and sheriff left the mob made a raid on the calabooSe. The build ing was overturned and the struggling ne gro quickly taken from it. A rope had been provided. A moose was put about the neck of the trembling wretch and he was dragged to a cottonwood tree about l0G yards distant
 Very little was said. and no opportunity was given to the prisoner to make a con feSSion or statement. \ dozen willing hands grasped the rope, and the negro was swung into the air. As his body rose above the mob the air was rent with the shouts of the men and women who had assembled to witness the lynching. As soon as the work was finished the mob dispersed, and quiet was restored.

THE srATE OF TRADE.

New York May 25.-Bradstreets Trade
Review tomorrow will say: The unfavor-
able. condition prevailing in commercial
and industrial circles throughout the
country, together with the prospect for
no material Improvement during the
summer, marks the present season as
probably the dullest relatively for twenty
years. At no time since the panic and
business depression manifested them
selves last year have reports as to the
volume of sales OF merchandise, the man
ufacture of staple goods and the dispo-
cept for immediate wants has been so
pronounced and so general throughout
the country as during the past week.
Superficial examinations of business
conditions leading to unwarranted opti-
Jnistic conclusions as to the near by fu-
ture of trade have not been wanting; as
a matter of fact, based on comprehensive
and careful examination the next few
months will show continuance, if not
an intensifying, of existing conditions of
extreme dizziness and depression.
Quite unfavcTable advices come from
PittsburS where there are numerous shut
downs. evolving large numbers of men.

Then followed a clash between Hoar

Hoar said it was the universal senti-
ment of the country that there be no
interference by the United States with
the domestic affairs of Hawaii.
Mr.. Morgan, chairman of the foreign
relations committee, fully endorsed
what Hoar said. The latter was pro-
ceeding to say he hoped Morgan's in
dorsement of his statement would echo
clared that the tariff bill was before
the Senate and further discussion was
out of order.
Mr.. Hoar protested vigorously against
the angry and discourteous lectures. -
Mr.. Harris retorted that he owed less
courtesy to the Senator from Massa-
chusettS than any other.

any one courtesy" retorted Hoar, che
