One Man Killed, One Fatally and
One Seriously wounded.

WHEELING, w. Va. Nov. ia
terrible tragedy occurred this after
noon at Wileyville, in Wetzel county,
W. Va, twelve miles from New Mart
insville, the county seat. The result
is the death of one man, an officer of
the law, and the fatal wounding of
another, and serious injury to child,
and the escape of the perpetrator.
Last summer, John White was ar
rested and convicted for robbing
freight cars at Hundred, on the Balti-
more & Ohio road. In August he es-
capped from the county Jail at New
Martinsville. Since that time the Of
ficers have been looking for the man.
This afternoon County Constable Newt
Furbee learned that White had been
seen about Wileyville. He went after
his man, but soon found that he
had a tough customer. White had
been drinking and was in a temper to
commit any crime. When Furbse at
tempted to make the arrest, White
whipped out a revolver and brought
down the constable at the first shot;
he died almost instantly. The tragedy
occurred on the outskirts of the town
and was witnessed by several persons.
Among others were James Baird, and
Hibbs, who attempted with the others
TO oyerpower the murderer. Whlte,
who was now thoroughly aroused,
pumped cold lead into them without
hesitation, bringing down Hibbs with
a wound in the stomach, from which
he will likely not recover, and catching

spoils system as one by which ''favorit-
ism," injustice and dependence upon
political influence saturate the serv-
ice with mediocrity, Incidence and in
efficiency.
The report closes with discussion
of the question of the future of farms
and farming in the United States.
The average value of farms by the
census of 1890 was $500. The value of
implements, domestic animals and
sundries will make a total farm plant
of $4,000 for family averaging six
persons. These farms have fed the
farmers and their families and 4O.000,-
600 urban residents, besides supplying
over $500, ,0000 600 worth of products to
foreign consumers. In the presence of
these facts the secretary asks, How
can anyone dare to assert that farm
ing is generally unremunerative and
unsatisfactory to those who 1ntelli-
gently follow it. The mortgage on
farm values does not exceed 16 per
cent-a less encumbrance on capital
invested than on any other line of in
dustry. He foretells confidently a
steady increase in the value of farm
lands as the population of the coun-

ROBINSON NAMED AS HIS AIDE
The Present Acting President
Chosen to BE Vice President
of the Road.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-THE Tribune
says: Private advices received from
the East indicate the election of E. P.
Ripley, present third vice president of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul, as
president of the Atchison, Topeka and
San Francisco Railway company and
of D. B. Robinson, present acting pres
ident of the company, as first vice pres
ident. Mr.. Ripley's name has not here
tofore been mentioned in connection
with the Atchison presidency, and his
friends say he made no personal ef-
fort to secure the position. He is now
on a trip through the South with the
eX-world's fair directors, of which body
he was a member, and is expected to
return to the city tomorrow
Up to a few days ago, the principal
candidates were D. B. Robinson, the
present acting president of the Atchi-
son, and general agent for the re-
ceivers, and e. T. Jeffery, present
president of the Denver & Rio Grande.
The Boston and American interests
were strongly in favor of the election
of Robinson. The European bondhold-
ers favored Jeffery. A few days ago
Mr.. Coppell, chairman of the board of
directors, announced the withdrawal
of Mr. Jefferys name, it being the de-
sire of the owners of the Rio Grande
to retain his services as president of
the company. This, it was believed,
would leave the field clear for Mr.. Rob
inson. 1t appears, however, that the
American and foreign members of the
joint executive reorganiza ton COM
mittee were unable to reconcile their
differences. 1t dawned upon the Amer
lean members that unless they COM
promised their differences with the
Europeans, the latter would be able to
elect the new board of directors and a
president, regardless of the wishes of
the American bondholders. The Amer
lean bondholders are mostly Boston
people, and Mr.. Ripley came originally
from Boston. The European interests.
it is understood, were brought around
to MI Ripley's support by ]. Pierpont
Morgan, who knows Mr.. Ripley well,
on account of his connection with the
Milwaukee & st. Paul, in which prop
erty Mr. Morgan is said to hold con-
trolling interest.

point on his next journey westward.
At the same time Mr. Carter folds up
his frontier manners and lays them
aside to keep until they are needed
again.
His other hat is a sleek and glossy
example of the stovepipe variety, cut
after the pattern of that which the
Duke of Marlborough wore at his we'd
ding. This he only wears in the East,
when he puts on a bold face, white
shirt, and his manners are those of a
prosperous New York banker. While
he wears this hat he shaves and has
his boots polished every day, he abb
stains from chewing tobacco, smokes
expensive cigars, and his vocabulary
is gauged to the Boston standard.
But once in a while Senator Garter
gets tired of the frills and formalities
that go with his silk hat and takes a
night off. He releases himself entirely
from his eninently respectable obliga-
tions and relaxes all over. He gets
out his old dun-colored hat, puts on
a communicating overcoat, dulls the
polish upon his boots with wet towel,
shoves his necktie around under his
ear, muses. up his hair and whiskers
and his shirt, gets big plug of tobac-
co, and leaves the gilded halls of the
Holland, Waldorf, and Fifth avenue
hotels and goes to a cheap chop house
where you can buy a plain, but whole
some dinner for 40 cents, and most of
the patrons eat with their knives.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-The re-
port OF the secretary of agriculture
begins with a review of the work of
the bureau of animal industry. The
total number of animals inspected at
the slaughter houses was considerably
over 1S,o00.O00. an increase of more than
five and one-half million over the pre-
Yious year. During the year ante
mortem inspection was also made of
five million animals. The cost of in
spection was reduced to IL cents per
animal. In 1898 inspection cost 44
cents per animal, and in 1894 it cost
1a4 cents.
over 10000 animals, cattle and
sheep, were inspected for foreign mar
kets. of which $4,000 were shipped
abroad. Over 45,0O0,OOO pounds of pork
were inspected microscopically, and ex-
ported, as against $4,000, 600 in 1894, and
%. 900. coo pounds in 1898. OF the amount
exported last year nearly 23.000,0O0
pounds went TO Germany and over

but for ten years she has been en-

and in that capacity has served sew
eral well-known families on the South
side. For several years she was en-
ployed in the family of Perry Hill, and
lately has been engaged by S. J. Sher-
wood. owner of the Sherwood flats,
Thirty-seventh street and Ellis avenue.
The prospective groom, Peter M. Full
ford. lives at 1902 State street, and Is
Tribune building.
The wedding of the young couple is
scheduled to take place in Kansas City
during the present week. and for six
weeks Miss Sides has been busy with
a corps of dressmakers preparing for
the event.
Yesterday all the pretty things had
been given the finishing touches and
placed in a big trunk for transportation
to Kansas City. With the fine cloth
ing was packed beautiful wedding gifts
from Mrs. Perry Hull, Mrs. Sherwood
and other South side ladies who were
intimately acquainted with the bride
to be.
Miss Sides was to leave the city over
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy rail-
road at o'clock last evening, and an
hour before that time driver of one
of Logan Prices express wagons call
ed at 2939 Armour avenue, for Miss
Sides trunk. 1t was loaded on the
wagon and the driver started for the
union depot Canal and Adams streets,
leaving Miss Sides to follow on a cable
train.
The expressman reached the depot
short time before the train would de-
part and left the trunk in his wagon
while he went to look for Miss Sides.
He was absent but few minutes, but
when he returned his horse, wagon and
the trunk were missing.
A few minutes later Miss Sides ar
rived, and with the expressman, went
to the Harrison street station and re-
ported the matter to Lieutenant Joel
Smith. Detectives were detailed on
the case and messages were sent to all
police stations, giving a description OF
the horse. wagon and trunk, but up to
a late hour last night nothing OF the
stolen property had been heard. The
police are of the opinion that the theft
was committed by some one thor
oughly acquainted with the contents OF
the trunk and who had followed the
expressman for the purpose of steal
ing the outfit.
After reporting the matter to the po-
lice and consulting with her future hus-
band, Miss Sides decided to take later
train for Kansas City, and at 1O:SO
o'clock last night left for her former
home.
1t was said last night that the we'd
ding would take place on schedule
time. even if the bride was compelled
to gown herself in calico.

MOB WAS DETERMINED.
Quick Justice Melted Out to a
Negro Brute.

FREDERICK, Nd, Nov. Thames
Goings, who assailed Miss Lille Jones
at the home of Hamilton Geisbert,
near this city, last night, was taken
from the jail by a mob of 300 men
this morning and hanged to a tree in
field on the Jefferson Turnpike, one
mile from the city. A report reached
the city about midnight that the wo-
man had died from the cuts and beat
ing inflicted by the negro, and this
infuriated the men, who had been
gathering in the streets and discussing
the outrage. A mob was quickly
gotten together, and unmasked but
armed with revolvers the men marched
to the Jail. They had previously
broken into machine shop in the
neighborhood of the Jail and procured
sledges, crowbars and files. They
made at once for the door on the west
wing of the Jail, and began to batter
upon it. Fully twenty shots were
fired from the windows above by the
sheriff, A. II. Zimmerman, and his
deputies, but the mob paid no attention
to them and went on with their work.
The Jail bell was rung to summon as
sistance, but none came.
In twenty minutes the large door
panels gave way under the heavy
blows, and the mob burst into the
corridor They quickly overcame the
Slight resistance the officers on the in
side were able to offer and found the
cell in which Goings, covering and
crying, was confined. The lock was
opened, and the trembling wretch
siezed and dragged out in his night
clothes and stocking feet In the
meantime the friends of the lynchers
on the outside had lowered an electric
lamp near the Jail, and cut the rope
from it, eXtinguishing the light. Co.
ings was led out amid the howls of this
crowd, the rope placed around him
and he was hurried down the road to
his place of doom. He protested his in
nocence as they dragged him along,
and begged them not to kill him. He
was promptly recognized by a num-
ber of men who knew him, and the
mob did not hesitate IN it's work.
Arrived at a tree, the negro was
asked to confess, but this he would not
do. Two officers of the salvation army
asked to be allowed to pray with the
man, and their request was granted.
The Lords prayer was then repeated
and the negro and most of the crowd
joined in. Goings' feet and hands were
then tied and the rope was drawn
around his neck. A man SieZed the
other end of it, climbed the tree and
threw the cord over the limb. Let
him co." was shouted, and as quick as
flash he was jerked from his feet
and hung dangling in the air, six feet
from the ground. One shot was fired
into his body and in a few minutes he
was dead.
The mob during the process OF
lynching observed order; none were al
lowed to fire at him except the one.
A member of the mob made a brief
speech, in which he said that they were
there with the unfortunate wretch, not
in a spirit of malice, but to make an
example of him, and teach his race
that they must let the women OF
Frederick county alone.
