SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 3i.-The close
of the arguments for the defense in the
trial Of Theodore DuTrant Tuesday was
marked by the greatest crowd that ever
fought for admission to a murder trial
in this city. Judge, jurors, court Off
GERS and attorneys struggled for nearly
an hour in a suTgiRg throng Of men and
women who crowded the corridors lead
ing TO the courtroom. The sheriff and
his deputies were not able to control the
mob and a TeqUisition was made on the
chief of police for a squad Of 20 men.
General Dickinson resumed his argu-
ment for the defense, aud concluded
his remarks at noon. When Attorney
Deuprey appeared at the afternoon ses-

the defense he was accompanied By his

TIFFIN, O., Oct. 2S,-The city has
been shocked from center to cirCUnfer-
ence over the attempt to lynch Marshal
Schultz slayer. It is in a veTitable up
roar, the streets having been thTOnged
with men, some filled with morbid cur
iosity, but many with trouble written
plainiy on their faces. The mob that
attacked the Jail early Sunday morning
was composed Of the worst specimens Of
law defiers that any community could
produce. Whisky had been INDUCED in
until they were more ike bloOdthiTsty
wolves than human beings.
The mob went direct to the side en-
trance and commenced the onslaught on
the door with their sledges. They were
without any reason whatever and made
no demand for the keys. Michael
Schmidutz, apowerful teanster, welded
the sledge. He was one of the drunken
agitators who appeared early in the
morning. The doors were broken into
splinters in a short time With each
blow the fury of the crowd increased.
When the entrance was gained there
was a wild rush and the hallway was
filed with excited men. Sheriff Van
Nest and three men stood in the OppO-
site end. He appealed to them most
bravely and strongly several times, ask
ing them for Gods sake to disperse. 1t
did no good, for the men only grew
fercer. The entrance to the corridor is
first protected by a heavy sheet iron
door. The lock was broken off with a
few blows and then there remained the

Then it was that the guards, who
were in that portion, began to fire. At
first they shot over the rioters heads.
A guard, in an interview, said the men
sWore to kill every person inside, and to
show their purpose, they began to fire
at them. The guards said no shot was
fired by them until the attacking party
had fred through the grating first.
Henry Muchsthler, the first man killed,
was the man who carried the rope. He
was shot through the left temple, the
ball coming ont on the left side, and he
died instantly. Then Chris Matz re-
ceived a bullet through the heart. He
was picked up dead. This awful work
and the determination Of the guards
awed the wouldbe lyRchers and they
left the place, cursing and wilder than
ever. Vic Vindonne, a young Italian
laborer, left with the intention Of
getting dynamite to blow up the build
ing, but he never put in an appearance
afterwards. While in the midst of the
attack, Vindonne rushed upon the
daughter Of the sheriff and threatened
70 kill her.

SUITS FOR $1,25O,00O.
The c., b. & @. Asked to Pay Damages
for Loss by Fire

CHICAGO. Jan. 2O.-Suits aggregating ST.
$50. 900 will be fled against the Chicago. Bur-,
lington & Quincy railroad within the next
few days. They are to recover for the
damage caused by the big fire in the lumber
district the evening of Aug. 1, 1894, which
started in the lumber yards of the S. K.
Martin Lumber Company, and which, be-
fore the flames were under control, swept
the entire plants of several lumber COM
panies, besides the electrical plant of the
Siemens & Halske Company and the car
building shops of the Wells e. French Com
pany. The suit is being brought to make
the railroad responsible for the loss on the
theory that the fire was started by a spark
Quincy engine. 1t is to be brought in the
name of the owners of the property, though
in reality it is mainly for the benefit of the
insurance companies which lost in the fire.

A MISSIONARIES OPINION.
Views of DIR. Blodgett ON the War Be-
tween China and Japan.


BOSTON, Jan. 20.-The American Board
of Foreign Missions, representing the Con-
gregationaI churches. asked an expression
of the opinions OF Rev. Henry Blodgett. d.
D., of Peking on the war between China
and Japan. DR.. Blodgett has spent forty
years in the service of the board and thirty
years in Peking He is now in this coun-
try. DIR. Blodgett has responded to the re-
quest of the board, as follows:
Among the common people of China
very little is known regarding either the
causes of the war or the facts occurring in
it's progress, and the, widest and most ab-
surd rumors are afloat. In Japan. on the
contrary. everything Is published. and per-
haps some things which do not occur. in
their numerous newspapers. and their cities
and towns are Illuminated at every victory
over the Chinese. In consequence, partly of
this, the most intense enthusiasm for the
war prevails, even the boys and girls In
their schools practicing military drill. +on
to Peking' was the cry everywhere as We
passed through that country"
viii the Japs reach Peking? They have
fought well and are brave. They have
gained many victories: they have still
great work before them. In early January
they had mot not taken taken Yingatu @ which is the
three hundred miles by land northeast
from Peking. During the winter the army
toward Peking must be cut off from COM
munication with the sea- Coolies from
Japan must carry its munitions of war and
supplies for its commissaries. The weather
is cold, the mercury falling as low as to
zero, even lower than this. Fierce winds
sweep down from the north and the ground
occasionally is covered by fall of snow.
Already we hear of the Japanese army
suffering from the cold 1t would not be
strange If the Chinese soldiers, who are
accustomed to this climate, should recover
a little courage and offer serious resistance
to the progress of the Japanese. The boast
OF the Japanese that they would
reach Peking In November. As things now
stand, 1t seems improbable that they can
accomplish this during the winter.
What has been written is on the sup
position that the war is TO be continued.
But in the meantime negotiations for peace
are going forward. What will be the result
Of these? We believe they will be sue
cessful. The treaty powers desire peace.

MOMENCE BANK SAVED.
Fight with Robbers Who Had Planned
to Steal S16O.OOO.


MOMENCE, ILL.,, Jan. 20.-An attempt to
rob the Exchange Bank of this town this
morning would have been successful had it
not been for detectives from Chicago, aided
by the town marshal and assistants, who,
after fight with the robbers, succeeded in
capturing Weed Love, of Momence, who
became separated from the remainder of
the gang in the confusion of the fight.
There were two and possibly three others
in the gang, and they got away in the
darkness. Later one of the burglars, named
Schaff, was captured, and the detectives
are in pursuit of the others. Robberies in
Momence lave been numerous during
the past few months that the Chicago de-
tectives had been employed recently to
ferret out the perpetrators. The detective
sent here gained the confidence of the
gang and learned of the plan to rob the
bank last night. Had the robbers suc-
ceeded they would have secured about
$50 900 in cash. None of the men arrested
has been previously imprisoned on "a Sc
rious charge. They have not, however, al
any time been known as sober and indus
trious citizens
VIII Schofield and Mulligan O'Brien, the
other two members of the gang, were
placed under arrest tonight Schoff has
confessed and told the full story of how
the plOt was gotten up.
