Murderer Homer Has a Narrow Escape in
the Central City jail.

the Central City jail.
Denver, Aug. IA special dispatch
TO the Republican from Central City
says:
Shortly after . o'clock yesterday
morning residents in the vicinity of
the county jail We're awakened by n
fusilade of SLOTS, and those who could
see the Jail building saw it surrounded
by small army of men who seemed
to be on guard with winchesters. One
man living in n nearby house stepped
out on the porch and was ordered in
again. He hurricdly complied with
the order.
The cause of the large number of
men surrounding the Jail was an at
tempted lynching of Dominick Roner,
who on Monday morning last. at Rus
sell gulch. stabbed James a. Goddard.
from the effects of which the latter
died at st. Anthonys hospital in
Denver Oh the afternoon of the same
day.
Just about o'clock Marion Rogers,
who sleeps in n room adjoining the
court room, which is directly over the
jail, was awakened by the breaking
in Of Il door in an adjoining room.
lie Immediately opened the inner door
and asked what was the matter.
when he was mt once covered by sew
cral guns in the hands of masked men
and told to preserve silence, and was
ordered back 10 bed again. where n
guard was kept over him.
All the men wore masks and hand
kcrchicfs over their faces so as to
prevent recognition. Immediately
after quicting Rogers. the crowd pto-
ceedcd down stairs, and. on reaching
the big wooden door of the Jail at
once brought into play an ax and
crowbar. and, breaking the large Yale
lock, obtained admittancc into the in
ncr part.
The prisoner Domincli Roner, with
three others held as accessories. had
been locked up in the steel cages for
the night and an electric light was
left burning in the main portion,
which was, however, soon put out by
some of the crowd for fear of any of
them being identified. Before doing
anything else some of the would-be
lynchcrs shouted. BE careful; don't
touch anyone but Santa Claus; the
others are innocent Santa Claus
being Il nickname by which Roner. the
alleged murderer was known in Rus
sell gulch
The crowd then tried the door of
the steel cage, but seeing that it was
useless to try and force in the door,
changed their tactics and began shoot
ing off their revolvers into the steel
cage in which the prisoners We're con
fined. Some thirty shots must have
been fired, and all this time the pris-
oners had couched in the side of the
cells near the door. where it WAS diff
ci;lt for them to be hit by any bullet
as the openings in the steel bars are
only two inches wide. aud when re
volvcr is showed in il is hard TO point

number of shots one of the prisoners

Pttsburg, Pa, Aug. 13.-Injunctions
by the court have put stop to marches
by the striking miners against the New

ton of the injunctionS the sheriff and
his deputies narrowly escaped precipi

first blood of the strikers was shed.
Henry Stewart, one of the sheriif's dep
uties, struck Jacob Mott, drummer
of the Mcdonald band, with the edge
of n brass horn and cut n severe cash
above his eye. The sight of the blood
wrought up the 1000 idle miners to

was imminent. The deputies also We're

by his GOODNESS and good nature did

strikers finally retired and marched
back TO their camp. There We're several

The riots in India threaten to take
on the character of an insurrection.
The agitators are endeavoring to in
flame the native population by repre-
senting that the sanitary measures
taken by the British government to
prevent the spreading of the plague
are in effect desecration of Indian
temples and trampling upon tradi-
tions. The people of India have un-
doubtedly many causes for complaint
againt the British, but the vigor or
thoroughness Of measures to stop the
spread of contagious diseases cannot
be put in that catalogue. There al
ways has been opposition to drastic
sanitary measures among Asiatic peo-
pie. and every famine In India, every
year OF cholera or plague, has been
followed by irritation and resentment
on the part of the ignorant and preju-
diced natives.

Roner was killed and for the crowd
not to shoot any more. This seemingly
satisfied the attacking party, who then
lit IA candle and tried to stick 1t
through the bars to ascertain If Roner
was really killed. but rs soon as 1t
was put through the bars it was
grabbed by one of the prisoners and
extinguished.
The crowd then fired several more
shots, in order, as they supposed, TO
make sure of their man, and immedt-
ately began to leave the jail, evidently
feeling satisfied that they had attained
the desired purpose. After the crowd
had gone Rogers notified Sheriff Mich
