TROUBLE IN FLORIDA.
Riot Threatened at the Town of Key
West

WASHINGTON. June 25.-This after
noon the Governor of Florida ,tele-
graphed President Mckinley that riot
is threatened at Key West, and asked
him, in view of the distance of Key
West from the mainland, and the diff
Guilty in getting State troops to the
scene of the trouble in time to be of any
avail, to instruct the commander of the
Federal troops there to act.
The President replied to the Governor
citing the law and asking for particu-
lars.
Secretary Alger telegraphed the COM
mandant of the post at Key West for
teIegraphic advices giving the exact sit
uation. The action to be taken will de-
pend upon the response to those in
quiries.
The trouble has arisen from an at
tempt to lynch a negro accused of as
sault upon a white woman. The negro
was given a preliminary hearing before
Justice and during the proceedings a
man named Pendleton arose in the court
and asked if there was not white men
enough present to lynch the prisoner.
Intense excitement ensued, but the
authorities succeeded in landing their
prisoner in jail. Knots of men gathered
in the streets and threats of lynchlng
were freely made.
Later in the afternoon, while Pendle-
ton was passing down the street he was
attacked by a mob of negroes, but was
rescued unharmed. This intensified the
feeling, which ran high on both sides,
and fears of a race riot caused the local
company to assemble at their armory.
While they were not ordered into serV-
ice, they voluntarily slept at the armory.
The request of the Governor for the
assistance of the Federal trops was DIS
cussed at a conference at the White
House tonight. There were present,
besides the President Secretary Alger,
Attorney General McKenna and Cen
eral Breck of the army. The CONFER
ence lasted until after II o'clock.
Secretary Alger stated there had been
nothing further received from key'We est
bearing on the situation, and that, III
the absence of further information, no
action had yet been taken on the Gov
ernor's request. There are now TWO
companies of artillery and one or more
of infantry stationed at that point.

A Poet All Through.

A Chicago poet, who, if not we'll
known, has printed several volumes of
very creditable verse, reached Chicago
the other day without a cent, after a
disastrous provincial tour, delivering
authors readings"
He was glad to get back, of course.
Said he had had a glorious time. No
money in it; but that wasn't the main
thing to be considered, anyway, in lit
erary endeavor
We'll, what are you going to do
now?" inquired.
II don't know yet he said slowly.
"One of the boys told me this morning
that there was to be a vacancy on the
staff of the Daily Blank to-day and
said that he thought 1 could get the
place if I'd go after it"
Have you been over to see about it
yet?'
'Nope-not yet" he said. 81 guess
I'll call around there tomorrow
''Why not to-day?" 1 insisted. "Why
not do it right away?"
well, you see, I'm going to be busy
this afternoon"
"All the afternoon"
'Yep. They tell me the buds out in
Lincoln Park are just beginning to
start nicely, and I'm going out there to
see 'em start"
And he did.-Chicago Times Herald.

1t Cannot
Be Done.

Speaking of the defeat of the
Anti-Department Store Bill in the
Illinois Legislature the Chicago
"Chronicle" says editorial1y:
among the advocates of the
bill from the start there was
hardly a denial of the PROPOSE
ton that it had no features of
constitutional legislation. It
provided for fragrant interfer-
ence with general trade and with
the right of private contract in
ways that the Supreme Court has
asserted over and over again
cannot be authorized by the Leg
is1ature.
"The people will have better
laws and all kinds Of business
Legitimate protection which comes
from free competition and un-
hampered enterprise-when it
shall come to be fully under
stood that neither Congress nor
the Legislature can create pros
perity nor insure profits in trade
by forcing it into unnatural
channels and by attempting to
compel the public to buy goods in
the dearest market instead of in
the cheapest"

A MURDERER EXECUTED.
Sent Twice Through the Drop Before
Life Was Extinct.

HOUSTON (Texas), June 25.-Jim
Williamson, a young man, was hanged
to-day at Wharton for his completely in
the murder of the Crocker family last
May. Williamson's nerve failed him at
the last moment, and it was necessary
to twice inject strychnine into him to
enable him to mount the scaffold He
declared his father, also indicted for
the crime, was innocent.
Williamson was pronounced dead by
the attending physicians three minutes
after the drop fell, but upon being cut
down was found to be alive. The body
was hauled up and again sent through
the drop, and was allowed to hang twen-
ty-two minutes The first drop was
very hurried, as the condemned man
nearly tainted when the moose was ad-
justed
The massacre of Crocker, his wife and
thirteen year old son grew out of feud
over land. Crocker had previously been
indicted for killing a member OF the
Williamson faction but had not been
tried. On the evening of the murder
Crocker and his family were surrounded
by six men in a neighbors house. Seeing
escape for himself was hopeless, he sent
his wife out on the prairie, and put the
boy between mattresses. The murderers
finally shot him many times, found the
boy and killed him as he lay, then pur-
sued the woman. A Winchester rifle
was placed to her head, and her brains
blown out.
Another member of the gang is serv-
ing a life term.
