Cincinnati, O., Feb 1S.-Owing TO the
| incendiary advertisement calling for l.
/ 600 men TO be in the vicinity of the jail
at $50 this morning ready for work,
/ there was we'll founded apprehension
that mob was to be gthered 10 lynch
the prisoners, Jackson and Walling
when on their way from the Jail to the
police court. A crowd did assemble, but
( a heavy relay of police was found there
and no concentration was permitted
The prisoners had been quickly removed
to the city hall two hours before the
time when it was supposed they would
leave the Jail.
The third appearance of Jackson and
Walling at the police court today serv-
ed to crowd the corridors leading 20 the
court room with a jostling curious as
sehbly of men and women. Ample
guards were placed, however, so that no
one got into the court room, who did
not have a right to be there The pris-
oners agreed to continue the hearing
until Fubruary q. AS soon as the order
was announced by the judge, they were
safely returned to the Jail, the wagon
being followed at run by the curious
crowd.
Sheriff julie Plummer of Campbell
county, Kentucky, reached here tonight
with the requisitiOn approved by Cover
nor Bushnell for the extradation Of the
accused prisoners Jackson and Walling
The proceedings agreed upon are that
the prisoners shall be brought into the
police court on February 81, where the
requistion will be presented by Sheriff
Archibald, of Hamilton county, who
viii take the prisoners to a court of
competent jurisdiction, either the COM
mon pleas, the circuit court or the su-
preme court. 1t is most likely that it
will be brought to the circuit court. At
ter that here can be no delay excep
by habeas corpus. 1t is not likely that
this will be resorted to in the present
state of public feeling. Such a proceed
ing would make a delay possible by
means of appeals all the way from the
common pleas to the supreme court.
The prisoners will be taken to the
Covington Jail, one of the strongest jails
in the state og Kentucky.
Chief of Detectives Larry Hazen made
a thorough examination of the story Of
the negro, George H. Jackson, today
The questions and answer We're taken
down by strenOgrapher. The remark
able thing about it is its correspondence
with Tic SUITES he mas previously tOlQ.
The theory is now that the girl was
knocked in the head and killed and
that the intention was to kill the negro
and leave him with a pistol in his hand.
The fact that the carriage was recog-
nized going TO the scene of the murder
over the Newport bridge, and that it
did not return by that bridge, though
return ticket had been purchased, is
taken as an indication that the MUIR
derers thought the negro would rush
back and report the fact of the muir
der. Bridge tickets found in Jackson's
pocket indicate that the country there
had been explored by him before the
murder

A NOISELESS HOME.
Built at Bar Harbor for the Great
 Journalist.

NEW YORK, July 22.-Joseph Pull itzer has arrived at Bar Harbor for the season from his European trip. He is now ensconced in perhaps the most comfortable, sound, light and noise proof living apartments in the country. At Chatwood, his summer home, last year, he built stone tower which cost him $100,000. It did not suit him. Noise penetrated his walls, and he or dered it torn apart, and science and skill have been at work the last winter to make it so that one couldn't hear a cannon go off outside the battle ments.
 Away up in the top of this five-story tower now sleeps in peace the editor undisturbed by the murmuring of the Atlantic at the walls of his castle or by glint of the morning sun that steals up from the hills across French mans Bay. The walls have been filled with mineral wool, warranted to kill the strains of Gabriels horn or deaden the crack of doom A noiseless pas senger elevator runs from the swim ming pool in the basement and other appliances to keep the noises of the outside world from his ears have beer put in.
