While August Cellar. q glassmaker of 0

italian entered and began playing an accordion.
The music was not to Cellars. taste.
Chase him out" he said to the bartender,
after having expressed his opinion Of tho min
strel.
At this the soul of Luigi Satore Of 25 Pel

up in revolt. For many moons Luigi ground
an organ on the streets of New York, thus edu-
eating his ear to such music as the accordion
player was dispensing, SO he chided tho unap-
preoiatlve Cellar. Cellar told him to go to the
devil, but, instead, he went outside, and lay in
wait until Collar appeared. Then he shot him
and ran.
Cellar clapped his hands to his stomach. stag
gered back into the saloon, and fell upon tho
floor, assuring tho barkeeper that he was dead.
In the meantime two policemen, had heard the
shot and had gone in pursuit of Satore, whom
they saw running. They caught him and took
him to the saloon, where Cellar identified him.
Then an ambulance was called from the Hud-
son Street Hospital, and Surgeon Maloney eX-

They Will Try TO Lynch IN Alabama Frisenel
-Ho In Strongly Guarded.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Feb. 1.-Intense excite
ment exists tonight in Butler and Crenshaw.
adjoining counties south Of here. Democrats and
Populists are almost equally balanced in power
in these counties and rivalry runs high.
A few months ago a Populist named Gafferd
killed Francis d. Lloyd, a Democratic editor and
leader in Butler and candidate for Secretary of
State.
Gafferd was threatened with lynching, but
was smuggled out of the county until Lloyd's
friends could cool of. Yesterday he was taken
back to Butler and arraigned for tho murder at
Greenville. the county seat.
A Populist meeting was held yesterday at
Luverne. tho county town Of Crenshaw. Editor
Brooke Of the Luverne Journal, Democrat, has
been waginG relentless war on the Populists Of
his county.
Robert Laird, q Populist leader. made a muir
derous assault on him yesterday with q knife,
and cut him severely. Each side lined up for its
man, and excitement ran high.
Lloyd was exceedingly popular in Crenshaw.
He was the personal friend of every Democrat
Of prominence in the county. The assault on
Brooke appears to have reminded Lloyd's Cren-
shaw county friends that his murderer had been
returned to Butler.
A message from Crenshaw tonight brings
news that a large body of Lloyd's friends have
started across country from Greenville with the
purpose of storminR the Jail there.
In anticipation of mob violence the Groenville
military have been placed around the jail and
will protect the prisoner at any hazard.
