An Outraged Public Demands sntisfsc-
ton for Years of Abuse.
Shortly after eight o'clock Monday
morning the type and material in the
Office of the Mitchell Mail was taken into
the street, saturated with oil and q
match applied to the heap which in 20
minutes was reduced to ashes. Such
was the situation which met the sight
of the people who came down town at
an early hour this morning. The rea-
son for such an outburst of public senti-
ment is based on the following facts:
Saturday afternoon the issue of the
Mail, edited by E. H. Mcbride, came
out with an ungentlemanly and un-
called for attack on the late John D.
Lawler. Along toward evening, after
the article had been read, feeling OF
resentment arose in the minds of lead
| luS ClblLcuS a. dluSg lOE SlN-
ing publicity to such utterings. Satur-
day evening meeting was held by the
business men OF Mitchell to formulate
some plan for resenting the past acts
of Mcbride. There seemed to be a
spontaneous feeling in regard to the
matter and out of that feeling grew the
meeting. Every man in the room ex-
pressed the sentiment that some action
should be taken and at once.
A committee Of seven gentlemen was
instructed to call upon Mcbride that
same evening and lay before him the
proposition endorsed by the meeting.
In substance the committee agreed to
purchase the Mail outfit and that Nc
Bride should leave the city. His pres
ence was a menace to the city. and
they very much desired for him to go.
Mcbride would not give an answer
which the committee rather insisted
upon. But he finally agreed to arrange
terms Monday morning and invited the
committee to call at that time, make
an invoice and complete the transfer
At eight O'Clock this morning the
| committee went to McBride's Office

group OF men, to transact their bust

weight Of this great bereavement,
dazed bv its suddenness, and shocked
by its magnitude, as the least
that we wish to do, and, perhaps, the
most that we can do, at present, do
adopt the following resolutions:
Resolved, That while we cannot
understand the mystery Of this atflic-
tlon or trace beneath its shadow the
lines OF beneficent Providence, yet
we will believe that our Heavenly
Father in his own perfect way ever
leads his trusting children, even though
| it be through deep sorrow, into a closer
union with Himself.
Resolved, That we recognize in the
| life and character of the late John d.

type Of noble manhood and useful citi-
zenship, as exemplifed in his honorable
business career: his transformations
deeds of public and private benevol'
ence anu charity: his kindly considera
tion of the rights of others: his exalted
virtue and unyielding defense OF his
convictions of truth and justice: his
love of home and family and devotion
to his adored Creator, and,

dolence to the grief stricken widow

New YORK, Dec. ia dispatch to

A letter written by Jose Miro, chief OF
staff, describing General Maceo's death,
has been shown me. Miro planned
many of Maceo's operations. The letter
is dated Managua, December 9, two
days after Maceo's death, and confirms
fully the first reports by the correspond
ents of the World and of the Associated
Press.
Miro writes that Maceo was encamped
near a small house and was expecting to
be Joined by the forces of Castillo and
Sanchez. He saw the advance of the
Spanish irregular cavalry (guerillas), be-
longing to Major Cirujeda's Spanish
believing them to be friends. A volley
was discharged at him and his group

There are $4,000 sick soldiers in hos

buildings are now used for the purpose.

A dispatch from the World cores

heroic defense, but could not prevent
the Spaniards from breaking in. They
killed all of the sick, 20 in number, and
burned the house. The Cuban guard
had fought until every man was killed
