Three Italians Taken from Jail by q
Louisiana Mob.
New Orleans, Aug. 10. = Wednesday
night last in St. Charles parish Jules
Gueymaud, a storekeeper, was assas.
sinated while standing on his front
porch. A Sicilian named Lorenzo Sala-
dino was known to have a grudge
against Gueymaud and he was sus-
pected. Circumstantial evidence caused
his arrest on Friday. The sheriff had
great difficulty in preventing the people
from lynching Saladino then and there,
and secretly conveyed the prisoner tn
Hahnville, the county seat, and placed
him in Jail. Two other Italians named
Decino and Angelo Marcuso We're con-
fined in the Jail for the murder of an
aged Spaniard on one of the planta,
tions.
About midnight Sunday a mob of
about 50 persons, well armed, surprised
the guard, battered down the doors of
the Jail and took out the three Italians.
The prisoners cried and begged for
mercy, but the crowd took them to
stable a short; distance away, gave
them two minutes in which to pray
and then strung all three of.them up
by the necks to the rafters..
The crowd stood around few min
utes until the bodies ceased to struggle,
and then opened fire from their Win
chester rifles on the dangling forms,'
literally riddling them with bullets.

slane.e Humor.


 The Siamese certainly do not lack for imagination, whether or not they possess @ sense of humor. According to Harold Frederic, in the absence ot dramatic novelties at home, London is smiling over the accounts to hand of a play being produced at the principal theater at Bangkok. If it shows some biological confusion in the Siamese mind, it also exhibits flights of fine fancy much more daring than Ibsen, Pinero or even Sudermann attains It makes Ceylon the capital of England, and the drama starts with the assump- that the king of Siam has promised to marry Queen Victoria and has found it inconvenient to keep his contract. The British queen, accordingly, in- vades Siam in quest of breach of prom ise damages, and there is a magnificent scene in which the duke of Cambridge, whose youth is miraculously restored, has terrific battle-ax comba with three Siamese war fairies. The Eng fish are defeated with tremendous car mage, but then the king of Siam re- Tents, explanations are exchanged and he leads the blushing Queen Victoria to the altar, after all-Troy Times.

Delegates Present from All Over tho World
 The Woman Question Creatss a Stir.
 CLEVELAND, O., May 2.-When the gavel of the venerable Bishop Bow man fell this morning. calling to order the general quadrennial conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, 5000 people were in the hall, and on the floor were white men and black men. delegates from Norway and Sweden and from India and Japan, and nearly every other country on tho globe. Bishop Vincent read hymn. after which prayer was offered by Bishop Foster that personal ambition might be stifed and that harmony should rule. Rev. William Burt, of Rome, Italy, followed in reading of the Scriptures, after which Bishop Taylor, of Africa, read the hymn.
 When the devotional exercises were over, Secretary Monroe began to call the roll. When the name of Lydia A. Trimble was announced, delegate was immediately on his feet with a motion that her name be omitted until committee should determine whether her election was legal. Bishop Bow. man refused to entertain the motion. as he declared the convention was not organized. As the other names of the women delegates were called no excep- tion was taken. The conference decided to fill the vacancies from the reserves, and to adopt the rules of the last conference.
 District conferences were held and members of the committee of 3l were appointed. Of the 14 district confer ences seven declare internationally for seating the women delegates and two others gave one delegate each to the same cause. This makes a vote of r to II in the committee in favor of seating the women.

A SECOND HOLOCAUST.

Cripple Creek Wiped Almost out of Fxist- ence-Several Killed and Thousands Mada Homeless.
 CRIPPLE CREEK, Col, April 31-Last
 Saturdays horrors were repeated
 three-fold in the destruction of sec
 ond fire yesterday afternoon. To an
 increase in the amount of property de-
 stroyed on Saturday the fire of yester.
 day adds the loss of life and leaves
 from 5000 to 1000 people homeless in
 a city of desolation with no homes to
 offer and no food to supply the daily
 wants. Now, indeed, is Cripple Creek
 in ashes. When m alarm of fire sound-
 ed from the Portland hotel at 1:30
 o'clock in the afternoon it was quickly
 responded to, notwithstanding that
 the firemen and the people, one and
 all, were thoroughly exhausted by the
 work of Saturday, and the tension un-
 der which they had lived since. In IS
 minutes from the time the alarm
 sounded flames were showing from the
 corner of the Booth establishment.
 The fire had spread to the west on Meyers avenue, taking the Chicago
 Cafe restaurant adjoining the Port land. Cartridges in the Wright hard. ware store in the Portland block were firing fusillade and Meyers avenue
 was furnace. To fight the fire from that point was beyond human power. To the west of the Booth building the
 immense lumber stock in the Fl Paso yards was catching, and the firemen had the block bounded by First and Second, Bennett and Meyers for field.
 Buildings in advance of the fire were blown up in n futile attempt to check its speed. All about the burning blocks streets were jammed. Charges of 50 pounds and more of powder were put in. The explosions threw debris high in the air, and it's falling felled men right and left When the smoke cleared away the streets were covered with men unable to rise. Others rushed to their assistance. Before the unfortunates could be dragged back the second charge went off. and half a dozen other men were added to the list The crowd surged forward and all were taken away as the flames be- gan to consume the building. Dr. Liz. gett and Dr. Crane, of Pike's Peak hos. pital, took charge of the injured. George Griffith's head was blown near. ly of and he died in half an hour. Two others and one named Fassett were also killed.
 One million dollars seems a large to ascribe to loss in hur- riedly and cheaply built mining camp, but there can be no question but that yesterdays losses will reach more than these figures. The insurance loss of sl56, 900 on Saturday must be fully s45O, 900 yesterday. Every insurance office in town is burned and figures cannot be obtained.
 T. J. Moynahan, owner of the Port. land hotel in which the fire at Cripple Creek started, at the office of Superin- tendent Walpole of the state insurance in Denver has made a which, in the light of | events, is regarded as tending to show that the fire was of incendiary origin. MT. Moynahan stated that SC, 900 in- ,urance was carried on one-half of the furniture, and that the furniture had | cost but $500. The lease of the hotel .o Ken iamin Rre yver eynires May1

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Business Less Than Was Expected-Farm
 commodities Low.

NEW YORK, May 2.-R. c. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
 As the season advances there is more busi- ness, but advices indicate that on the whole the present feeling is that the gain is less than there was reason to expect While retail trade has been active enough to lessen stocks and obligations, and thus to prevent great many embarrassments it has not yet brought new business to the mills or factories to pre-. vent decrease of thrilled orders and the clos. ing of some works. Substantially the same state of things existed in all the great indus. tries, notwithstanding the strong combinations in some, and the evidence of inadequate con. sumption appears in the fact that the general range of prices for commodities, farm and mine, US we'll as manufactured products. is nearly one per cent. lower than it was April 1, and the lowest ever known, the decline since October, 1892. being l67 per cent

The Murderer's Plans of Escape DisclOset
 by Intercepted Letters.
 CARRoLLToN, Mo-, May 2.-The com plete story of Bill Taylor's cipher code has now been disclosed. Letters writ ten in this cipher between Bill and his wife were means of communication between Bill, locked up in Jackson county jail, and George, at large.

 The officers discovered twice, by reading the cipher letters, the where. abouts of George Taylor, but failed tc capture him, although posses of men went out, only to find the bird had flown. Furthermore, they learned oi plan to rescue Bill from the Jackson county jail on Tuesday night, April 2l, and frustrated the plan.
