BIG PROTECTION" MONEY.

'sGreen Goods Men Paid New York
Police Captain $3.50 a Month.
NEW YoRR, Sept. 1.-THE Lexow
committee today elected testimony to
show the police had protected 'green
goods" men and had shared in the
profits. William Apologize, conf.
Dental man of Jimmy McNally, a
dealer in green goods" testified there
was no green goods" business in Har-
lem until Captain Meakin was trans
ferred to that precinct When
one of the places was to be
raided Meakin notified the proprietor
and ali evidence was removed. When
victim com planned to the police, the
latter would give the green goods
men the tip, and the complainant would
be run out of town for attempting to
pass counterfeit money. while the po-
lice and "green goods" men distributed
the spoils. Applegate said MeNally
paid Meakin as high as $3.50 month
for protection. Applegate identified
Patrolman McArdle as the man to
whom $50 week was paid for protec'
tion.
Other witnesses were Alexander }.
Howell, a member of the Fifth Avenue
Presby church, engaged in the
harbor transportation business, who
told a friend he once paid $500 blood
money to Captain Williams, and
admitted on the stand thai
4 he told a falsehood wher
lie made the claim. James Ii. Perkins
of Brooklyn, partner of Howell, gave
detailed statement of the $500 checl
offered to Captain Williams and of the
indignant protests of that officer. WHIT

Committee of EngIishmen TO In
vestIgate Southern Lynchings.
GOV. NORTHERN SCORES THEM
1--WE Have Already Endured More Out
Than VIII Be Tolerated in Future

SAVANNAH, Ca, Sept. lin reply
to telegram from the New York
World, asking his opinion about the
coming of the committee of English
men to investigate lynchings in the
south, Governor Northern wired as
follows:
"The people of this state are quite
able to administer their own affairs and
they are doing it in full justice TO the
negro, as our laws and our conduct al
test. We have already endured more
outside interference in our local mat
ters than we will submissively tolerate
in the future. Let these kindly dis
posed Englishmeu return To their own
country and prevent by law the lnhu-
man sale of virtuous girls to lustful
men in high places; hang all such de-
mons as Jack the Ripper; stop that
wholesale slaughter of the negro in
Africa by Englishmen, who go there
to steal their gold; supply necessities
to prevent bread and labor riots and
strikes, which are wholly unknown TO
the south; feed and give employment
TO the poor, as do the people of my
section; give 80 oppressed Irishmen the
rights that humanity demands; and
when they shall have pulled the beam
out of their own eyes, they may with
better grace appoint themselves com
mittee to hunt for mote that may be
in our eyes. While we have irregular
tiles at the south, and negroes are
sometimes lynched, they are never
slaughtered ny wholesale as English
men sometimes destroy them.
"Why come as as investigation COM
mittee 10 dehounce the south JUS prior
to congressional elections, when we
have just had negro lynched in Kan
sas, April 2, and another In Ohio,
April Is, and while the Poles and Hun
garians were recently butchered III
Pennsylvania and negroes run out Of
Franklin Park, n. j., in hordes. We
challenge investigation by all persons
who have the right to investigate these
charges, but any attempt upon the par
of the English. tainted by their owr
national crimes, to arrsign US for trla
must be considered as gross imperti

DoxIe,s strange Death,

BUTTE, Sept. 1O.-John Doyle,
young laborer, was almost instantly
killed in East Galena street shortly be-
fore o'clock yesterday morning in
decidedly unusual and rather sensa-
tional manner. At about $3.50 o'clock
he visited the house of Lille Woods,
and remained there some time. 1t is
said the actions of the woman and man
were of a criminal character and the
proceedings were witnessed by several
people through hole in the side of
the house. When the girl went to get
a bottle of beer few minutes after
wards Ofhcers Hogan and Rafferty, went
In and accused the man of wrong doing.
He denied at FIRST, but, it is said, he
afterwards admitted IL and was placed
under arrest.
According to the story told by the
officers, Doyle fell just outside the door
and Hogan stopped over to help him to
his feet. As he aid so Hogan's revolver
slipped out of his pocket, struck the
sidewalk and exploded.

NoRTH ADAMS, Mass, Sept. 9.-The
most horrible disaster ever known in
this vicinity took place on the Freburg
road last evening at the Hossac tunnel.
The accident was caused by a rear-end
collision between east-bound freight
trains.
A freight train stopped to repair its
engine, which had broken down, and at
about the same time the west bound
express train passed through the tunnel
filling it with smoke. The second east
bound freight was allowed to enter the
tunnel and the engineer, being unable
on account of the dense smoke left by
the passenger train to distinguish the
train lights from those on the walls of
the tunnel, went into it with a crash.
A horrible disaster was the result.
The tunnel was blockaded and two men
were killed outright and three seriously
injured.

but 1t appears these orders were never
carried out. Peremptory orders have
now been given for three powerful ves-
sells of the southern squadron to join
Admiral Ting's fleet in the north with
out delay. When these achievements
arrive, it is asserted the Chinese fleet
will commence operations in earnest
against the japanese. No confidence,
however, is felt in Admiral Ting's
ability 10 hold even the gulf against
the Japanese fleet. Consequently,
many steamers belonging TO Chinese
firms are being transferred to the
British flag.
Raising money for war purposes pro-
ceeds, and mandarins commanding
provinces and districts are reported to
be squeezing the unfortunate Chinese
without mercy.

EXPELLED FROM THE TURF.


Monroe Salisbury, a California Turf
man, Punished for Violation OF Rules.
NEW YORK, Sept. 1o.-The Califor-
MIA turfmaD. Monroe Salisbury, was to-
day exnelled from the trotting turf by
John ID. Barry, Henry Hughes and
Thomas X. Egbert. judges of the post
poned 2:16 race, which brought the
grand circuit trotting meeting in New
York to close. The ofiense for
which this severe measure was melted
out as punishment was Salisbury's
alleged removal of the trotting mare
Expressive from the Fleetwood track
without permission of the judges. Ex-
pressive started in the 2:l6 class race,
which was begun on Friday last, two
heats being trotted before darkness
came on, causing postponment. The
mare was heavily backed as the favor
lie, and her chances to win were re-
garded as extremely good, although
Strontia won the first heat, and Judge
Austin beat her in the second. When
she was taken away from the track on
Saturday night her hackers were left
in the lurch, as bets stood inst the
same as if the mare was on hand 10 trOt
it out. Thousands of dollars were
thus lost without giving the bettors a
show for their money.

Rail Loosened on the Owyhee
Bridge on the Short Line.
ROBBERY THE SUPPOSED CAUSE
The Bridge Is as Feet High and IL the
Train Had Gone OF There Would
Have Been Bad Wreck.

BOISE Idaho, Sept. ia dastardiy
attempt was made today to wreck the
west-bound Short Line express at
Owyhee bridge, 20 miles east of Nam
pa, the object being, 1t is supposed, to
rob the train. The section foreman,
passing along, found the fishplates re-
moved from a rail on the Owyhee
bridge and the rail loosened. He
called up his men and SET TO work 10
fasten the rail- down. He then noticed
u man on horseback near by with
rifle over his shoulder. The man was
mounted on fine bay horse and his
actions were suspicious. The foreman
became alarmed, and as the train was
already within hearing he concluded
to flag it and have an examination of
the bridge made.
Superintendent Morris was aboard.
He went forward with the foreman TO
the bridge. AS they went up the track
they saw another man on a knoll, at
some distance, making signals, appar-
emily to someone in hiding. Morris
left an armed man with the foreman
and came on into Boise. Afterward,
when the section men had fixed the
rail securely and had started bick to
the station, the horseman appeared
again aad deliberately fired two shots
at the party. Superintendent Morris
swore out warrants for the man, and
Deputy United States Marshal RUDE
Robbins with a posse of five men has
gone in search of him.
The Owyhee bridge is 40 feet high,
and if the train had gone off there
would have been terrible wreck. 1t
IS not known that there was any un.
usual treasure shipment on board. II
is thought the intention may have
been 10 catch the east-bound train in
the afternoon, which, it is said. carried
a large shipment of bullion from thS
mines at De Lamar and Silver City.
