CLEVELAND. O.. April l5.-Seymour
Newlin. a negro with a bad reputation,
committed a criminal assault last night
upon an aged woman. named Mrs.
Knowles, living at Rushsylvauia. Logan
county, Ohio He was captured this
morning. but when the sheriff arrived
from Bellefontaine To take charge Of the
prisoner a mob which had collected re-
fused 10 give him up. The sheriff sum
moned a posse but still the mob would
not yield. A call was then made upon
the militia, and a company left Belle
fontaine late this afternoon for the scene
Of trouble.
The crowd of infuriated citizens at
Rushsylvaria was appraised Of the de-
parture of the military and long before
their arrival, We're armed and massed
around the calab0ose TO receive them,
and when the company arrived at the
building a hundred voices warned them
that the citizens We're determined that
blood would flow before the prisoner
would be surrendered, and that any effort
at force would be useless, as dynamite
bombs were under the building and that
the prisoner would be blown 10 atoms il
a gun was fired.
Sheriff Sullivan then held a long parIey
with the leaders Of the mob, and it was
finally decided that if Sheriff Sullivan
would order the militia back to Belle
fOntaine the citizens would guard the
prisoner until morning and give him
a hearing in Rushsylvania. and that
SherlH sullivan would make no fur
ther attempt 10 get the man until after
the trial. The militia arrived here at
$50 p. IN.
The dynamite talk was supposed 10
'e a bluff but after the departure Of
the soldiers no less than six bombs were
hauled from under the calabOose. It
develops that NeWlin has been in the
develops that NeWlin has been in the
of one.
When the militia arrived at Rush
Sylvania they were met by a large body
of citizens who declared that the
prisoner must not be removed from the
lookup. Sheriff Sullivan, who was in
command of the soldiers, was informed
that there We're six dynamite cartridges
under the caIaboose, and If any attempt
was made to fire a gun or fix bayonet,
the building aid the prisoner would be
blown into eternity. After parleying for
a time the sheriff decided that he could
do nothing and the troops were ordered
to return 10 BelIefOntaine on a promise
from the citizens that they would care
for the prisoner and see that no harm
came to him. The troops left at
o'clock.
At $50 the mob made a raid on the
calaboose. The building was overturned
and the struggling negro quickly taken
from It. a rope had been provided.
moose was put about the neck OF the
trembling wretch and he was dragged 70
a cottonwood tree about one hundred
wards distant Very little was said and
no opportunity was given To the prisoner
10 make 4 confession or statement.
a dozen willing hands grasped the
rope and the negro was swung into the
air. As his body rose above the mob
the air was rent with the shouts Of the
men and women who had assembled TO
witness the lynching. As soon as the
work was finished the mob dispersed and
quiet was restored.

VICTORY FOR GOV WAITE.
Decision OF the Supreme Court Settles
the Controversy.

DENVER. April 1s.1The supreme court
has just granted the writ of custer in The
fire and police board controversy, and or
dered the old board to turn over the offices
at noon tomorrow. This is complete vic
tory for Governor Waite. Since the su-
preme court has rendered it's decision the
members of the old board have decided to
keep their agreement to abide by the de-
cisiOu OF the supreme court, and are al
ready making preparations 10 leave and
turn over the offices as required. There
VIII be no further contention in the courts
or by force. and the question is absolutely
and peacably settled As the police force
has been active in support Of the old board
no doubt exists that there will be an en-
tirely reorganized police force, the officers
being supplanted by pOpulist men. 1t is
the general opinion here that Governor
Waite acted within the provisions Of the
law, and that the opposition on the part
OF the old board TO complying with his
demand for its resignation existed purely
because the personal and political advan-
tages the position offered. There have
been no demonstrations, and the city is
absolutely peaceful.

che Buffalo Fire.

BUFFALO. y. y, April 15.-The work OF
searching the ruins of the works of the
American glucose company for bodies was
begun today and when the workmen were
compelled TO quit by darkness the remains
Of four bodies had been found. The re-
mains are simply chunks OF charred flesh
and bones. no one OF which is more than
,wo feet in length. The largest piece was
"a portion OF a mans trunk which was
found outside the walls. The man had evi-
IDENTIFY iumped from a window and been
caught by a falling wall anc roasted out
side the building.
The morgue was crowded all day with
weeping Polish women. wives and relatives
of the men burned. They made a great
Outcry when the charred remains were
brought in, and some OF the more cemOn-
strative threw themselves on the blackened
pieces of flesh and caressed them. The
morguc officials had 10 use force TO get
them away from the remains. Work viii
be begun on the ruins at daylight tomor-
row morning and il is thought that a num-
Der of other bodies viii be found by night
The exact number Of men who were ere
mated can not yet be definitely stated. To-
Cay the glucose company VIII pay of all
hands and make final effort TO check its
payroll 1t il absolutely certain that
Twelve men were burned, but there is
grave reason 10 fear that there a
number Of others and IL is not improbable
that there were tWent ty-twO victims.

TO the Proposed Rule.
Fhe struggle over the adoption Of the
new quOrum-cOunting rule decided upOn
by the democratic caucus last Friday
viii be the feature of the coming week
iD the house. The details of the rule
have not vet been formulated by the
democratic members Of the committee on
rules composed Of Speaker Crisp and
Nessrs.. Catchings and Outwaite. but it
will probably be ready to submit to the
fun committee when it meets tomorrow
morning
Inasmuch as about one-third Of the
democrats are opposed to any quorum
counting rule. as indicated by the vote
IN the caucus. it viii be impossible for
the democrats alone, should the repub-
lcans decline 10 vote and the democratic
opposition sustain their opinions to the
extent Of declining TO vote. to make a
quorum to adopt such a rule. In other
words. unless the rule framed by
the democratic triumvirate Of the
committee on rules is satisfactory
70 the republicans the latter
could, if they choose. prevent its adop-
Jion. The republicans will. however.
shortly acquiesce in the adoption Of any
rule that contains the essential prin-
ciple Of recording as present but not
voting those members who decline to
respond to their names. This is the
parliamentary principle which Mr. Reed
has been cOntesting ever since the end
Of the Fifty-first congress. 1t must be
embodied In any new rule submitted 10
the house or il cannot be adopted. IT
s. expected that when the rule is pre-
sented Mr. Reed will make one of the
greatest speeches of his life
Owing to the death Of Senator Vance
the house viii probably adjourn inn
mediately tomorrow and the fight over
the new rule viii be postponed until
Tuesday. 1t is probable that but little
time will he allowed for debate and the
chance is that when the house adjourns
Tuesday evening the auorum-countine
rule will have been adopted and hli-
clustering Of the kind which has char
acterized the proceedings of the house

OF the past. The resolution adopted bg
