But They Are Seemingly Un-
able To Make Arrests
OfAlI the Guilty
Ones.

PANA, ILL.,, Nov, William
Lynch, employed by the Palace Coal
company up to the time OF the strike
was shot at by negroes last night.
They ran him home, shooting through
his house several times and firing
about ten shots.
They also shot through the house OF
Mrs. Ada Mcintyre a widow who was
taking care of q sick daughter. She
begged for mercy, but the negroes
paid no attention to her. Fortunately
she was not hit by any of the bullets.
The negroes in the vicinity known as
the "Flat Sam" district came running
out ane began shooting in all diree-
tions. They kept this up until the SOL
diers arrived on the scene.
Things are in such a state that it is
dangerous for any one to go out in the
mining district at night and citizens
are very much excited. They say If
something is not done before long there
will be an outbreak and every negro
aud operator will be killed.
The soldiers did everything in their
power but it was Impossible to arrest
any negroes.

GREAT RIOT
In Progress Between Whites and
Blacks.

WILMINGTON, N. c., Nov. 1O.-At y
o'clock this morning 200 armed white
men burned the building occupied by
the negro newspaper, the Record,
whose articles during the campaign in
cited the wrath of the whites.
WILMINGTON. N. c., Nov. 1O.-A
terrible riot is in progress here. Eight
negroes and one white man are report
ed to have been killed. Over a score
are wounded, and the mayor and city
officials, colored republicans, have fed
A mob led by Congressman Waddell
burned out the negro newspaper, the
Record.
The building with all the outfit OF
the newspaper is destroyed. This
summary action was taken because the
negroes failed to heed the warning of
the whites to remove the plant. The
Record building is situated in a dense
ly populated negro locality. From the
first the negroes abandoned their
homes and fed.
Reports of riot and bloodshed reach
ed q hundred more laborers employed
at one of the cotton congresses, who
quit work and started for the scene of
the trouble. They were stopped by
white men and compelled to return to
work.
The negro editor, Manly, is now
here to be found and the leaders have
advised the whites to shoot him Oh
sight.
Business has practically been aban-
doned throughout the city and the
whites are parading the streets armed
to the teeth.
Thus far three negroes have certain
ly been killed and one white man
wounded. More fatalities are proba-

THE SPANIARDS HOPE
That We May Yet come To See How
Bad We Are.

LONDON, Nov. 1O.-The Spanish
peace commissioners are now directing
their hopes toward some international
turn in the peace negotiations which
will result in Spain retaining at least
nominal sovereignty over the Philip
pines.
The Spaniards affect to discover q
new prop to this somewhat decayed ex-
pectation.in Emperor Willism's pro-
posed visit to Cadiz. They also live in
hopes of concerted action among the
powers to check the American preten-
sions.
The various ambassadors have al.
ready reported upon the situation and
they see confirmation of
those hopes in the tone of
the Russian and German newspapers.
which refer wrathfully to the "imper-
ial madness" and the progressive in
toxication" of Americans. and their
vain imaginings that Europe will per-
NIT the Pacific ocean to become an
American lake.
This excited press points out that
Japan and Crete are precedents for
Europe's concerted interfer ence. Eng
land rises as STUN bling
block to such proposed con-
certed action, more persstently
after Lord Salisbury's dark hint at the
lord mayors dinner last night, when
he said that the United States may
have already approached an entrance
into the worlds politics, and that
while that entrance might not be con-
ducive to peace, it would conduce to
the interests of Great Britain.

ANGLO SAXON UNION
The First Official UtterdnCe In Re-

LONDON, Nov Premin Sas
lisbury's strong speech at the lord ma
yor's banquet last night caused some-.
thing of q sensation, especially his re-
ference regarding the possible entry of
the United States into the field of
European politics.
His statement that such advent
would be to the interest of Great Brit
ian causes satisfaction, but it is only
the echo of public opinion as reflected
in the press for many days. Its import
ance comes from the fact that it is the
first official utterance to the effect that
