FOR STEALING RIDES.
SEVERAL HUNDRED MEN AND
BOYS ARRESTED,
And Fined SIS, by the Police Au-
thorlties in Chicago.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept. 1.-THE
Lake Shore and Rock Islands
roads have begun crusade
against men and boys who make
daily custom Of stealing rides on
their trains within the city limits.
AS a result of one raid 224 of the
offenders were gathered in. Thirty
three offenders were sent to Bride
we'll in default of fines of So and
cost. A few were released and the
others were held to appear this
morning in the South Police court.
The raid was managed by special
agents of the railroads, assisted by
the city police. The plan adopted
covered the territory from Polk
street to Englewood. Beginning
with the early morning trains,
which are peculiarly subject to the
annoyance of ride stealers, the
special agents drove the offending
passengers from the trains into the
arms of deputies, who were sta
toned along the right-of-way at
convenient points. Gathering their
prisoners in squads the officers
took them to patrol wagons held in
waiting near by and hurried them
to the nearest station.
The arrests were made under
the authority Of the city Ordi-
nance forbidding such offense I'M
der penalty of fine of not more
than $50 nor less than So. The list
of the arrest included number
of workingmen who had boarded
the trains to escape the payment
of fares and most cases Of this
kind were let go.
A number of chronic nuisances
were discovered in the crowd and
they were singled out for prompt
action. The railroad authorities
explaining their wholesale arrests
said they were constantly subject
ed to claim for damages from peo-
pie who were injured while steal
ing rides and had concluded to
stop the nuisance as much as pos
sible by making examples of those
caught. If the raids thus far made,
do not discourage those who are in
the habit of stealing rides the rail-
roads will repeat the raids till sat
isfactory results are reached.

THANKS TO IDA WELLS.
Colored Baptists Resolve Against
Rape and Mob Law.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Sept. IT,
The National Colored Baptist con-
vention here unanimously passed
the following resolutions:
Whereas, the negroes OF the south
are charged by their white neigh
bors as being possessed OF such
strong and unbridled lust as con-
stantly exposes the white women
of the south to the attacks and
abuses Of rapists, and
Whereas, the negroes, supposed
guilt has caused the white people
of certain sections of the country
to pour upon such forms of mob
violence as is seldom seen in any
country, and
Whereas. we realize that no crime
which can be committed against
the virtuous female can impose
upon her a severer personal loss
than the crime of rape and that n o
crime which may be committed
against a state can do more to blot
out the sentiment of love and JUS
tice from the hearts OF its people
and do more to undermine the sta
bility and prosperity OF the gov
eminent than the reign Of mobs
Therefore be it.
Resolved: First that we hate
with all the strength Of our God
fearing hearts the diabolical crime
of rape whether in white or black,
and vow to use all the legal and
moral means at our command to
put down this curse Of the brutal
disposition which would thus fear.
fully and wantonly trample upon
female virtue.
Second, that the taking Of hu-
man life for rape or other crimes
without adequate proof of guilt,
established by due process of law
is itself a crime and a species of
barbarism and lawlessness which
we pray the people of the country
no longer to tolerate.
The resolution thanked Ida B.
Wells and others interested in the
work for their course.

TORS.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. Sept. 17.-Chalk
Nickel. aged lg, is living at his home in
this city under the influence Of opiates to
overcome the spasms of an attack of hy-
drophobia. He has never been bitten by
a rabid dog or other animal, and what
makes the case remarkable in the annals
of medical science, is that his trouble is
supposed to come from sympathetic eX-
element on account Of his younger broth
er, who was one OF the nine persons bitten
nv a supposed rabid dog a couple of weeks
since. The boy has not suffered from the
effects of his wounds, which were severe.
Chalk went TO Joliet, Illinois, recently to
visit an uncle ard while there stumbled
and fell, making large bruise over the
the heart. Contusions followed with all

GAME AS EVER.
Breckenridge Will Contest Owens
Election and Has Power With
the Returning Board.

LEXINGTON, KY, Sept. IT,
Breckenridge will contest Owens
election. He has already sent
letters to committeeman in eight
counties, notifying them OF his pur-
pose.
Breckenridge men have a ma
iority Of the district committees,
which Is the returning board, and
declares officially who Is the nomi.
nee on the primary returns.
1t is claimed by the Breckenridge
men that enough illegal votes were
cast Saturday to overcome the
small plurality Of Owens.
Col. Barney Tracy, president Of
the Owens club, claims his man
has a clear lead of 400, and he is no
way afraid that Owens will lose
the race. The Breckenridge people
say the Owens lead is barely 100,
and that the committee will give
them the nomination sure.
Breckenridge forces are hurry
ing messages to all parts Of Ash
land district today, to secure evil
dence upon which to base a con-
test,
Stress is laid on the fact that
Owens county, (ScottO gave him
l,2OO plurality, showing an increase
of Gil over the Democratic vote in
1892; and Franklin county, which
Owens carried by 52l, shows an in
crease of SOL, almost 33B per cent
in each county.
The other six counties showed
from five to twenty per cent. in
crease.
Breckenridge men refuse to give
out their figures, but say their adj
vices from every precinct give
Owens only 1863 on the face OF the
returns.
Desha Breckenridge, j. G. Rogers
and Judge Bullock have gone to
Scott county to get affidavits and
investigate the report that two
precinct polls were kept open after
legal closing hour.
