COOPER LYNCHED
South Carolina officers Overpowered by
Determined Mob

SUMTER, S. c., Jan. S.-Simon Coo
per, the negro outlaw, who yesterday
murdered three members of the Wilson
family and colored servant, was
lynched near here to day. Cooper was
captured by the sheriffs posse and was
being taken to Sumter when the mob
decided to hang him. The deputy sher-
iff, aided by two men, resisted the lynch
ers, but they were overpowered. A
rope was thrown over the limb of tree
and as the man swung upward the body
was pierced by more than $50 bullets
One bullet cut the rope and the corpse
fell to the ground. where the coroner
found it some hours later.
Cooper was captured about noon in a
cabin five miles from this place. He was
well armed with Winchesters and kept
up a continuous fire. The house was
small and on a hilr in the open so that
the posse could not at once come within
range with any degree of safety. Soon.
however, an advance was made and
the posse closed in. After a parley
Cooper agreed to come out. AS he
stepped out he was seized by the arms.
AS he stood facing the crowd shot was
fired and Cooper dropped, with a rifle
ball through his cheeks. He was not
badly wounded, however, and as he
rolled over made an attempt to get his
hand to his trousers. In his shirt a
razor was found, while beneath his
trousers band was a loaded revolver
Cooper was drunk, and after the shot
became almost unmanageable.
A search of the cabin revealed Win
chester rifle, two revolvers, a valise filled
with cartridges and a number of TASKS,
some empty and others filled with whis-
ky. On a page torn from a blank
book was written: Remember that l
killed myself. There never was a man
who could take me-" which was signed
Simon Cooper"
Cooper was placed in a wagon with
two men and the party started for town.
The crowd of nearly 100 men followed
There were mutterings of lynching about
two miles from Sumter Then the Off
GERS were overpowered and the negro
was lynched.

antne station. The schooner burned to
the waters edge.

BUSINESS DONE.
Consists in Passing Resolutions Ask
ing for More Protection.

SACRAMENTO, January S.-(By
the Associated Press.)-In the SEN
ate this morning a resolution was pre-
sented embodyng a memorial to con-
gress of the California state fruit grow
ers' convention fixing the tariff on all
imported fruit and petitioning congress
to act on the same The resolution pro-
voked considerable debate Morehouse
wanted action deferred till Monday on
the ground that senators had no time
to look over the provisions of the me-
mortal. but his motion to that effect
was lost.
Langford's motion on the adoption of
the resolution was then taken up and
passed by a mixed party vote.
Sewall explained his vote by saying
that he had not had time to examine
the matter. He wanted to look over the
rates on different articles of fruit, and
the refore would vote no.
Aram presented a petition from
Southern California asking the legisla-
ture to nlemorialize congress to amend
the present tariff laws and increase the
import duty on foreign grown citrus
fruits. 1t was ordered spread on the
minutes and printed in the journal.
Dickinson moved to adjourn to Monday
at 10 o'clock.
Adjourned.

SACRAMENTO Jan. S-Very little
business was done in the assembly this
morning. A resolution of respect to the
memory of the late Cyrus Coleman was
adopted and it was decided to adjourn
in his honor.

STANDING COMMITTEES.
Speaker Coombs of the assembly says
tonight that he will be ready to an
nounce his selection of standing commit
tees at the opening of the session at
noon on Monday.
The majority of the membership of
both houses hes left the city and the
talk of a senatorial contest has quieted

has gained currency that when the first
ballot Is taken on Monday Irving M.
