ROANOKE VA. TUESDAY MORNING. AUGUST Z, 1884,
KILLED BY a HORSE.
Frightful Death Of Senator
Daniels little Son.

LYNCHBURe. Aug. Civilian Patton
Daniel, the year-old son of United
States Senator John w. Daniel, met
with a fearful and fatal accident yes
terday afternoon.
The little boy-the baby OF the house
hold-was out playing in the yard OF
the Senator'S residence, near tie city,
and hSd horse saddled for ride
about the promises The groom placed
him in the saddle and for few minutes
the little fellow rode merrily around the
yard, his feetin the straps OF the stirrups.
1t was about l o'clock, and the sun
shining brightly at the time, the horse
sought the shade Of a tree, turned sud
denly and caused the saddle to swerve.
In second the little boy was hanging
head downward, with his foot in the
strap, his hand clutching the bride,
and his head on the ground.
The animal feeling tho weight on
his side, and the sudden jerk on the
reins, made dash and for about sixty
feet dragged the little follow over the
yard, and only stopped when a cruel
hoof had broken the boys arm and
loosened his grasp on the bride.
The Senator was at homo, and ran
into the yard and bore the fearfully
bruised little fellow into the house.
Physicians were summoned, and the
examination disclosed the sad fact that
he was fatally injured, his head being
80 badly bruised that conclusion of the
brain was caused, aid, although all that
medical skill could suggest was done,
he died at l1:lO last night.

THE SAVAGES AGAIN.
They Present Another Claim to the
Blythe Estate.

The seemingly intermlnable Blythe case
is struggling very hard to get back into
the Superior Court.
Yesterday morning Attorney r. j. Lyons
went before Judge Belcher, who is calling
the calendar in Probate Judge Coffey's
court during his Bonor's absence on his
annual vacation, and applied on behalf of
Mrs. Sarah Davis and seven others for
each one undivided eighth rart of Blythe's
estate. leaving not one cent of all those
millions for Florence Blythe OF anybody
else.
Judge Belcher looked immen sely graft
fed, and tried to look serious when lie
said that lie was accustomed to receive
such applications for millions of money
daily. However, he appointed day for
the hearing when Judge Coffey shall have
returned from his vacation. During his
absence no contested matters could be
taken up, and it was likely that Lyons
application might meet with some sort of
opposition.
The petition, fled at the time of Its pre-
sentatiOD, claims the estate on behalf of
Sarah Davis, Mary Ann Churchill, Fanny
Savage, Henry Savage. Thomas Savage,
David Savage, William Savage and Diana
Bennett, stated to be cousins-german of
the deceased. They are. in fact. the Eng
llsh Savages, whose claims were unsuc-
cessfully advanced in person by William
Savage. No reference TO the celebrate ed

TURN NOW
Suits Against Chinatown
Police.
Owners of Battered Heads and Broken
Furniture Appeal to the Courts
for Redress.

While Police Sergeant Esola and his
squad were smashing things right and left
in Chinatown, and thereby gaining much
fame and driving many gamblers and
lottery dealers from their lairs. the
afflicted Chinese were among them takin 2
notes and making preparations for a day
of retaliation. All the places that were
entered by EsOla and his men were not
gambling dens or lottery offices. and all
the men who were cuffed in the alleys
were not Satchmen employed by gamblers.
So when Esola had rested from his labors
the injured ones met and discussed their
wrongs. They were aware that the
police have no right to beat a man who is
not violating a law, even if he does wear a
queue, and they knew that while the off
GERS have authority to dismantle a gam
bers' resort they have no right to make
kindling wood of the furniture found in
rooms where they suspect that the laws
against gambling and lotteries have been
violated.
After many discussions the Chinese
poured their grievances into the sympa-
thetlc ears of Attorneys RlOrdan and
FerIal, who forthwith took to writing
complaints against the offending police
men. Five suits were filed against Esola
and his men in the United States Circuit
Court yesterday and there are more to
follow.
Fung Cow, an actor, claims $1,000 dam
ages from Esola and the squad for kicking
him and pulling his pigtail he was pass
ing through an alley late one night about
one month ago. He cOnvin ced his assail-
ants that be was not LOOKOUT and they
apOlogZed Fung Cow prefers coin to
ANYTHING so intangible as an excuse.
Lo 10y Sang has a big restaurant on
Jackson street in which the merchants of
Chinatown were making merry one night
about three weeks ago when the SQUAD
entered and proceeded to search the guests
for lottery tickets. They also tried to
seach LO 10y Sang himself. and when he
objected thew took him to the City Prison,
but as they had no charge to make against
their captive they were not allowed to
search him there, so they took him out
side and examined him, but found nothing
For 5000 LO 10y Sang will forgive this
outrage.
Pun Yu sues the squad for $4,000, be-
cause they entered his rooms in the Globe
Hotel, and finding 10 evidence against him
smashed his furniture. Hee Choy, a
widow who lives at $40 Washington street,
alleges that the police without warrant
smashed her door and locks and spilled
water in her room while she was at a
theater. Nothing less than $1,000 will
satisfy the widow. Ju Jong Of 829 Wash
ingtOn street complains because the SQUAD
smashed some valuable ebony chairs when
they paid him an unsolicited visit. He,
too. asks for $1,000 damages.
Attorney Riordan states that he would
have sued the Chief of Police had he not
been informed by that official that he had
positively forbidden Es0Ia to break fur
niture and doors when searching for
