state Fair in Detroit in 1894.

Arrangements have been completed
whereby the next state fair will be
held at the Detroit exposition grounds
in the early part OF September. A
special committee of the Detroit Expo
sition association, went to Lansing and
had a conference with committee Of
the state board, and later with the
state board, on the subject of holding
the next state fair in Detroit. A joint
committee afterwards held a meeting
when final arrangements were made,
very liberal terms having been offered
by the Detroit Exposition association.
An effort will be made to have the
forthcoming fair a greater success in
every way than it has ever been in the
past. II will be open to the world,
and it is believed that the opportunity
afforded exhibitors will be very gener-
ally availed Of The exhibits will
cover n wide and varied field, and no
question is entertained as to its being
a success financially, or otherwise.

Wayne County's CIerkshlp.

After being out over 30 hours, the
Oakland county jury at Pontiac in the
Reynolds-May, case returned a verdict
favorable to Henry M. Reynolds who,
according TO their finding, is entitled
to the Office of the county clerk of
Wayne county. Mr.. Reynolds, it is
held, is entitled to the office by a ma
jority of / ,926, or only few votes less
than was claimed by his counsel
The answer of the jury covered
every one of the 40 questions submitted
by the supreme court. The verdict in
the main is of three parts. These are:
The defense was sustained as to the
legality of the vote in Ecorse and
Wyandotte. The defense was defeated
AS to the claim of illegality of voting
in the republican precincts. The prose-
cution was sustained in the claim of
wholesale illegality of voting in AL
Deimel's precinct and the most of the
other Polish precincts.
May will again take the case to the
supreme court for final action.

A FRIGHTFUL WRECK.
ELEVEN PASSENGERS KILLED
ON THE LACKAWANNA.
One Train Crashes Into Another Upon n
Bridge Over the J-aelseusack River
Near Jersey City-s5 Injured.

A frightful accident occurred on the
west side of the Hackensack bridge,
near Jersey City, n. j., on the Della
ware, Lackawanna a. Western rail-
road. Eleven passengers in these two
ears are known to have been killed,
and at least 25 are terribly injured.
The Dover express passed through
Rosevllle without stopping. The train
which ran into the express is the reg
ular Communication train. 1t pulled
out of Roseville four minutes after the
express had disappeared in the fog in
the direction of New York. On APP
preaching the bridge over the Hacken-
sack river the express slowed up. For
what reason is unknown, but it is
thought the engineer could not see the
signals because of the dense fog and
that he slowed his train to
avoid danger. The Communication
train following did not halt at the
bridge, but came along at its usual
rate of speed. The engineer saw the
express when less than 200 feet from
it. The ponderous locomotive crashed
into the rear car telescoping IL and
driving il into the car ahead, also tel
escaping that, dealing death on all
sides.

Judge Longs Pension Uphold.

Washington special: Judge Bradley
decided the Long pension case in favor

much as Mr.. Lochren now answers

once the payment of pension to the re-
lator, it will not be Necessary to direct
the writ to issue, but upon filing such

A Triple LYNCHlNo.
Kansas Mob Quietly Break Open jan
and ThcS Hang Three Men.

and ThoD Hang Three Men.
A mob Of about 90 men entered the
Jail at Russell, Kan, took out j. q.
burton, William Gay and his son, John
Cav, and hung the trio TO small rail
road bridge a short distance east Ct
the depot in that city.
No officers were aroused or even
was aware of what was going on until
early morning, so quiet were the
actions of the mob. Orders were given
by signals and obeyed without word
being spoken.
The Jail is small wooden building
surrounded by an s-foot board fence.
In the Jail were two steel cells in
which the prisoners were confined.
The masked mob broke the locks off
the Jail with sledge hammers. The
three were taken to bridge near by.
Nooses were placed about their necKs,
and they were given time TO speak and
pray, then the leader clapped his
hands and the three we're pushed off
the bridge. Several shots were fired
into each body and then the mob dis
persed.
The crime for which the men were
lynched was the killing of Fred Dim
ming in July last. Inquiries regard
ing a draft payable TO Dining and his
mysterious disappearance led to an in
vestigation and the arrest of Burton,
who implicated the other two men.
Each made a confession which led to
the finding of Dinning's body buried
in a field near the scene of the murder.

Now that the State Agricultural So
ciety has decided to hold the state fair
in Detroit this year the Central Michi-
gan Agricultural society will doubtless
regain possession of the valuable
grounds in Lansing. In the deed
given the state society several years
ago there was provision that the
property should revert to the Central
society in case it was not used any one
year for state fair purposes. Last year
the Central stockholders waived this
provision, but they are not likely to do
so this year.
