PLEADED FOR LIFE.

Pleading for his life, Holt was taken
out of jail, and through the court
house yard to the east side, facing the
Rudd House. He was given ample
time to pray, when a rope was placed
about his neck, and in ten inmates he
had been strangled to death.
The mob was SO quiet that not over
ten outsiders knew anything of the
lynching. Holt had been brought here
only a few days ago from Louisville.
where he was taken for bookkeeping.

Very few Senators and Representa-
tives are now in Washington, but the
state of business in both House and
Senate makes it likely that most of
them will be on hand when Congress
reassembles. The Loud bill, shutting
out books and-samples copies of news
papers from pound rates in the mail
will be the first business in the House
and will be voted on Jan. 9Th. Then
comes four days for the Pacific Rail-

Cameron Cuban resolution will be at
once taken up in the Senate, but it is
not certain.

THE RAILROAS OUT OF

LATTER FINALLY FOUND OUT,
AND PRESENTED A BILL FOR TIE
AMOUNT THEY HAD NOT RE-
CEIVED.
1T is EXPECTED THEY Will PAY
Rather Thnn Take Chances on a
Prosecution Under the Inter-
state Commerce Law.

A story is now going the rounds
among those engaged in the coal trade
which explains how it was possible for
number of coal firms to cut prices
on anthracite coal last winter, and
those engaged in the business who
were trying to solve the problem are
now congratulating themselves that
they did not get in on the deal. Some
days ago attorneys for two of the
roads which do an extensive business
in the way of hauling coal from Du-
luth and West Superior presented bills
to a couple of firms engaged in the
coal business in the Twin Cities. The
bill handed to the manager of one firm
was for the neat sum of $2S.000, while
the manager of the other firm escaped
with a bill for only $1,000
According to the story, which is
vouched for by a gentleman engaged
in the business in this city, the rail-
road companies have been labOring un-
der the impression for months that
they were getting the worst of the
freight charges, but they were at a
loss to know just how the thing was
done. An employe of one Of the roads,
however, secured employment with one
of the firms and after several months
Of hard work in the office and strict
attention to the work for which he was
selected, secured evidence which re-
suited in the bills mentioned being
presented to the firms. 1t appears that
the freight on bituminous coal from
Lake Superior to ST. Paul is 81 per ton
while the freight of anthracite coal
with the exception of the class known
as pea coal, is so per ton. The young
man sent by the railroad company to
secure an inkling of why there was
so much soft and so little hard coal
shipped made the astounding discovery
that coal which was billed as soft or
pea coal was as a matter of fact hard
coal, and instead of the charge being
81 per ton the freight should have been
$3.50 per ton. 1t took considerable
time to get the facts and the details
in shape to prove the thing, but When
the young man had compiled his figures
bills We're promptly made out by the
railroad companies and presented to
the managers of the coal companies. 1t
is also stated that the work was done
by the employees of the firms at the
lake and the railroad companies gave
the men at Duluth and West Superior
a chance to square themselves by tell
ing all they knew of the transactions.
This chance was taken advantage of
by the persons who fixed up the lake
end Of the deals and in order to avoid
trouble they told how the thing was
worked. 1t is intimated that if there
is any disposition on the part of the
coal firms to fight the bills, or if prompt
payment is not made the matter will
be laid before the courts and those
interested or familiar with the tram
sactions will be proceeded against un-
der the interstate commerce law, which
makes the person or persons found
guilty of offenses of this kind subject
to a fine of $4,000 in addition to impris-
Onment.

The other two men then closed in on
him and a short struggle followed The
men overcame Nichols and searched
his pockets, but were forced to be
content with the scarf pin as, he had
no other Valuables about him. Several
kicks were administered to Nichols as

GETCHELL,s LITTLE KNOCK.
Didn't Take Much to- Satisfy the PO-
lice Committee.

The committee on police from the
board of aldermen met yesterday aft
ernOOn and listened to testimony in
the case of George Quincy, a policeman
at the Ducas street station, who was
removed by Mayor Doran June 8,
for the good of the service" Quincy
claimed that his discharge was due to
the arrest of a prominent young man
some weeks before on a charge of dis
orderly conduct. The hearing before
the mayor developed that Quincy was
told by Sergeant Ryan to ascertain
the identity of a man who was leading
a horse on Wabasha street the morn
ing of June 8. He failed to do as he
was ordered, and as a few hours later
a horse was reported stolen, he was
let out. At the hearing yesterday
Capt. GetcheIl and Sergeant Ryan
stated that Quincy was not a good Off
Ger and had been given to the use of
Intoxicating liquors. Quincy de-
MED this part of the charge, but the
committee after an executive session
decided to stand by the mayor and
report favorably on the discharge
