ATTEMPTED LYNCHING.
Motorman's Life Threatened Because
His Car Ran Over a Boy.

CHICAGO Dec 25.-George Z. Denmrk,
seven years old, was killed by trolley
car at Throop and Eighteenth streets this
afternoon. Fred Bernien, motorman. was
threatened with lynching for killing the
boy and was with great difficulty rescued
from a mob of Bohemians who, incensed
at the terrible accident, surrounded the
car and dragged Bernier from the plat
form, determined to hang him. Patrick
Hanley, the conductor, managed to save
Bernier from the mob, and then riot
call was sent to the Maxwell-street sta
ton. The police took charge Of the mo-
torman and conductor and locked them up.
After the boy had been killed Moterman
Bernier took refuge in the car, which stood
within Il few feet of where the boy was
killed and in an instant it was besieged
by angry men. He attempted 10 keep them
out by latching the doors on the inside. but
they broke the door in, knocked him down
and kicked and beat him for a few mo-
ments in a shocking manner He man.

ran to the door of a drug store. where he
was handed pistol and admitted inside
by the proprietor before any further harm
befell him.
The crowd surged around the door yelling:
Break il in.'' kill him. 1t looked for a
minute as if the store would be raided.
but the proprietor. Mr.. Kviteck. brought
out a winchester rifle, and. pointing il at
the door. threatened that the first man
who entered would drop dead. The crowd
believed what he said and fell back In the
meantime Mr.. Kviteck had piled his tele-
phone He called on the Maxwell station
first for an ambulance. but by that time
matters had got so warm that he requested
a patrol wagon. In a few moments the
wagon brought Policemen Brunsfield, Muir

When some degree of quiet had been re-
stored the police arrested the endangered
men and took them to the station. There
the men seemed unconcerned and declined

formed people living in the neighborhood

TALK WITH THURSTON.
Nebraska's Senator on Tariff and Pa
cific Railway Legislation.

OMAHA Dec Ex-senator John VI.
Thurston spent Christmas day with his
family i'm this city. Il think there will be
no tariff or financial legislation at this
session of Congress- said the senator Il
am satisfied, however. that there will be
an extra session of Congress called to con-
slider these matters soon after the advent
of the Republican administration. proba-
bly, about March Is. 1t is pretty certain
there will be a new tariff bill by the first
of July
DO you think the government will fore
close its lien on the Union Pacific at an
early date?"
1t is altogether probable that the at
torney general will appear early in jan
uary for the government i'm the
pending suits and ask for a
foreclosure of the governments lien.
The President will not wait for Con-
gress to act in this matter. Congress may
or may not pass the funding bill. OF
course if il should that would end the
foreclosure proceedings. If il does not
the foreclosure will go on. The truth is
that l have not taken great interest in
this matter and may not be fully posted.
l know an opposite opinion prevails. but
what I've SAID is a fact nevertheless.
do you think the passage of the fund
ing bill by the present Congress prob
able?''
Il should say that it is likely to pass
the House. In the Senate probably a ma
