Murdered and Burned.

The charred body of white woman
was found in the ashes Of a cabin that
was burned near Hodges last Saturday.
Investigation developed that the re-
mains were those of Narcissa Bagwell,
who, when last seen alive, was on her
way to take the train for Atlanta, with
two Negroes carrying her baggage.
The Negroes were arrested and one
of them told that the other had rob-
bed and murdered the woman. Both
were taken to Abbeville Jail just ahead
of an angry mob that was gathering to
lynch them.

Another Day OF Disorder.
BEooKLYN. n. Y, Jan. "a. Another
day of disorder has marked the strike
on the trolley lines, and has demon
stratcd that the police force aided by
an army Of militiamen is unable 20
fully suppress lawlessness. On Fulton
street, between Ralph and Patehen
avenues, very serious trouble was
threatened during the day. A mob
OF nearly 1000 strikers and their
sympathizers held that neighborhood
in terror Tor several hours and only
the timely arrival of a detachment OF
police and cavalry prevented blood
shed. At one time small riot was in
progress, and the police were com
compelled 20 draw their revolvers. AZ
the sight OF the weapons the crowd
scattered. rushing into the side streets,
Abut quickly returned at different
points.
Numerically Beaten.
The trouble eliminated at 1880 p. m,
when car No. li5 came along. Near
Patchen avenue IL had 10 stop, owing To
Instructions on the track. The strikers
crowded about the car and asked
the conductor and motorman 10 join
them. They refused Strikers then
jumped upon the platform, seized both
men by the necks, yanlSed them off
and threw them into the bowling mob.
Once there, they were kicked and
punched numerically. Then a dozen
strikers picked both men up bodily and
ran down side street with them.
Police Use Their Clubs.
About dozen ears had in the mean
time come up, and the police on the
platforms drew their sticks and fell
upon the crowd. They smashed right
and left, generally landing on some un-
fortunate strikers head. The crowd
retaliated with stones. and for few
minutes the fight was hot. The police
grabbed two leaders OF the mob and
placed them under arrest. The strikers
tried TO rescue their brethren and
were only prevented from so doing by
the police drawing their revolvers and
driving the mob back The temper OF
