are, as a matter of fact, at loss to
locate that avis rara, to whom our
contemporaries at all times refer

1t seems to us and to all fair
minded people, that the Advertiser
man should hesitate in taking the

Was it fair play when the men
who had gained every bean Of their

In 1895 the "fair play" business
came to the front again. A few fool

call rebellion. The "Anglo-Saxons"
we're ordered to the front, and a
nightly scared lot were they and
they succeeded in killing a couple
Of kauskas who bad thrown their

But it was fair play of course. Then

The "Anglo-Saxons" could not

BY o'clock they came pouring in from

the aisles until the police and fire de-
partments cried enough and barred the
doors to further arrivals.
The song service was first on the
programme. The vast throng joined in
the stirring Endeavor hymns with de-

New York, July 12.-Bradstreets says:
There is only a moderate volume Of

The prospects Of an early settlement
Of the tariff has strengthened the wide

LYNcHlNG IN MISSOURI.
Negro Rapist Strung Up by a Mob at Union
Appeals for His Life Unavailing.

Union, No, July 12.--Erastus Brown,
the negro who assaulted Annie Foer-
bing near Union, Mo-, last week, was
taken from the Jail at Union early Sat
urday morning and hanged to a willow
tree, one mile southeast. Forty or fifty
mounted men rode into town at 2 o'clock.
They galloped four abreast until they
were within one block Of the JAIL when
they divided into two squads. one squad
dispersed to the north and the other to
the south, completely surrounding the
houses Of the sheriff and jailer. At each
house they placed a strong guard. The
Il q airder went to the Jail and attacked
.ae iron doors with slegde hammers and
cold chisels. Many Of the villagers hur-
ried to the Jail with the avowed purpose
Of preventing a lynching.
Judge Colman was appointed spokes-
man and made an impassioned speech
to the mob in which he implored them
to disperse and not bring disgrace upon
their homes and families by overruling
law and order In less than ten minutes
the mob had forced an entrance, and,
rushing to the cell in which the fright
ened wretch was confined, they placed
a rope around his neck. He begged pit
eously for mercy, but the mob was mex
orable, and he was dragged out to the
yard. where a hollow square was formed
by the determined horsemen. The start
was made toward the southern portion
Of the village, with guns Of the mob
resting i'm the hollows Of their arms
Several residents Of Union made a final
appeal that the negro be spared until
his case could be passed upon according

a last resort railroad employees will he
brought into the fight, if possible. The
heads of the various railroad organiza-

that p. NJ. Arthur, chief of the Brother

not TO haul coal until the miners diner

was asked as to the truth Of the report
he said:

Of the strike from the newspapers for
several days. / will say, however, that
we have communicated with the heads
of all the railway organizations In the
Country. and I believe we will have their
support in this struggle. AS to asking
them to call on the railway employees to
refuse to haul coal until this trouble Is

after we have exhausted all other

until we had used every effort TO close

week in wall Street.

Somewhat unsettled conditions have
prevailed in speculation during the last
week, the fluctuations being narrow and
the activity of the market depending
altogether on the professional element.
The foreign professional speculative in
teregts which bought our stocks to some
extent during May and June have APP
pRrently liquieated their holdings and
are now credited with having sold
Americans % a considerable amount for
the short account. Realizing sales have
apparently been exhausted and there is
no disposition to liquidate. Apart
from the purchasing by the shorts
whenever the market has shown weak
ness. there also would seem TO be a de-
mand for stocks at concessions in prices.
The overshadowing influsnce in the
market has been the tariff bill. A gen.
orally firmer tone appeared when II
became positively known that the meas
ure would pass the serate. but the real
ization of this expectation last Wednes-
