A Bushel of Whisky Bottles Left Behind
by the Soldiers.
COLUMBUS, o., Nov. 23.-At the Col
onel Colt court Of inquiry this morning
Lieutenant w. f. Baker of Company
K, Fourteenth regiment, testified that
he was close to Colonel Colt when til Q
mob rushed upon the prisoner Dolby
as he was being taken from the jnil to
the court house. He saw q man in the
mob draw a revolver and place it at
Colonel Colts back. He struck
the mans arm down and present.
ing his own revolver at his head
compelled him to run away. N. b.
Hirshey thought most of the mob were
boys and thought Il small squad of mi
litia ought to have held them In check.
Captain Thomas Bowles of Hillsboro
saw the crowd bring the battcring ram
and use it. There were about eighty
men on the steps, when the doors We're
rammed, and about 300 to 500 in the
grounds below. AS for himself, he ex-
pected the troops to fire and for that
reason got away from in front of the
doors.
Witnesses for the citizens of Wash
ington Court House We're then called.
The first was Rev. r. r. McNair, who
was vehement in his declaration that
the troops ought never to have fred
until they were fred upon. He be-
loved that it the troops had shown
more courage they could have taken
the prisoner to the train without much
trouble.
L. NJ. Kennedy said he saw Colonel
Colt go into Casey Bros saloon four
times the day during the rioting. He
saw soldiers drinking from bottles and
saw six soldiers drunk.
Jacob Thorne, employed at Casey's
saloon, testified that Colonel Colt drank
whisky in that saloon. Two children
brought a bushel of bottles to the sa-
loon to sell the day after the rioting
that they picked up inside the court
house where the soldiers had been.

Great Excitement In shanghai.

Z
LONDON, Nov. 24.-The Central News
correspondent at Shanghai says the
fall of Port Arthur has created great
excitement in the native quarters of
Shanghai. The news Of the capture o;
Port Arthur by the Japanese was
brought from Che Foo yesterday by a
British steamer. No details of the
fight have yet beeu received, but all
accounts agree that the Chinese fought
CALAMITY and desperately. Some of the
officers and menin the forts refused to
surrender and were all cut down by the
Japanese.
The Star publishes a dispatch saying
that the Japanese torpedo boats en-
gagged the attention of the forts while
the troops closed around the forts 1t
the rear. The torpedo boats made q
signal and concerted dash and sue
ceeded in getting inside the harbor.
The Japanese artillery in the rear kept
up Il continuous fire upon the
Chinese forts and the infantry
mndc a succession of attacks upon
the outer d%efenses, which they carried.
After the first onslaught by the Japan-
ese the resistance of the Chinese is said
to have been feeble, and finally the
Chinese troops became pnnic stricken
and fled. A dispatch to the Central
News says that the real fighting at Port
Arthur began on November 30 in the
third pass, the village of Shuts Ying-
Ting being captured on November 10.
LONDON, Nov. 24.-Another dispatch
says the British warship Porpoise
brought the news of the battle and the
fall of Port Arthur to Che Foo. The
Shanghai correspondent of the Central
News says that 1t is estimated that
$4,000 to 10000 Chinese troops defended
Port Arthur. 1t is supposed that two
Chinese warships were also captured,
ut Port Arthur. The foreign office has
received n dispatch from the British
minister at Toxic confirming the report
of the capture of Port Arthur. The
Globes Shanghai dispatch says that
China has sent a special agent to japan
with instructions to accept any forms
OF peace except the cession of China
proper to japan.

LONDON, Nov. 24.-The mails to the
United States today take out a strong
appeal from the officers Of the Miners
Federation OF Great Britain addressed
to the mining and other trade organ
ization in the United States, in behalf
of the striking Scotch miners. Tho
appeal says that the restitution of the

description, and is aggravated by tho
general belief that the strike has been
lost by the INSCRIPTIONS actions of
