A NEGRO LYNCHED.
Taken From the Officers and Hang
ed to a Tree.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 3O.-A special to the
"Post-Dispatch" from Fayette. Mo-.
says: Toy Hayden, a negro aged "A,
was taken from the officers who had
him under arrest for the murder of
Andrew Woods, a young white man,
and hanged to a tree eight miles
west Of here. The killing took place
just previous to the lynching and was
the result of a fight over a game of
craps in progress at a negro festival at
the place Of Al White
Twelve negroes and six whites were
engaged in the game, when Woods
slapped Ben Hayden in the face. Ben
did not retaliate, but his brother, Tom,
took up the fight and shot Woods to
death. Tom Hayden was arrested by
the Sheriff, and was being taken to
Fayette, when a mob overhauled them
and overpowered the officers Hayden
had a bad reputation.

ST. LOUIS, Oct 30.-:Robert B. Jen-
nings, Secretary and Treasurer OF the
Boardway Gable Line. was robbed Of
ST DAB in cash and $4S,750 in checks
while standing on the rear platform OF
a Boardway car at Broadway and
Washington avenue at noon to-day. The
police attempted to suppress the facts,
and as "a consequence the news was not
known generally until three or four
hours later in the day.
The robbery, committed in board day
light on one of the busiest corners or
st. Louis. is regarded as one Of the
most daring crimes in the history Of the
local police annals.
Mr. Jennings had just withdrawn the
money from the bank, intending to take
it to the companys office on North
Broadway to pay off the hands. The
robbers evidently knew he had drawn
the money from the bank.
Just as Mr. Jennings was getting on
the car two men approached, and one
of them jostled UP against him, giving
him what is termed in police parlance
the strong arm" This was done to at
tract his attention away from the
other man, who picked his pockets
While the street railway official turned
to see who jostled him.
Mr.. Jennings discovered he had been
robbed shortly after it occurred but
the men had made their escape. When
he learned of his loss he reported it 20
the police, and five detectives We're inn
mediately dispatched to the scene TO
work on the case. The robbers, how
ever, had secured a good lead and the
police could find no trace of them.
Payment on the checks, which We're
drawn on the Boatmen's Bank. has
been stopped by the railroad company.
Mr.. Jennings was robbed of a large
amount several years ago under some
what similar circumstances Two men
boarded a Broadway car and snatched
a satchel he had at his feet containing
$1,000. The robbers We're captured and
sent to the penitentiary.

The brooklyn Dynamite Outrage.

The striking street railway men in
Brooklyn, for whom a great deal of public
sympathy was felt and expressed as long
forfeited it by the perpetration of an in
tolerable outrage upon the peace and good
order of the community. Ii is always easy
TO ascribe the mobbing of cars and disor-
ders in the streets to vicious persons not
connected with the strike, but no such
theory will apply to the deliberate destruc-
ton of section of elevated railway with
dynamite bombs.
The time has evidently arrived when the
authorities will feel compelled to resort to
extreme and severe measures of repression.
When any class of citizens, no matter what
its grievances, SO far ignores the rights OF
all other people, and resorts to the torch
and bomb of anarchy to accomplish its
ends, the merits of the struggle, intrin-
sically considered. at once disappear be-
fore the right and duty Of society to pro-
tect itself. Probably, before this can be
done adequately in the present instance,
there will be further trouble and possibly
loss OF life, as happened in the case of the
street railway strike in the borough of
Brooklyn a few years ago. 1t is to be
feared that the municipal government has

SHOT BY HIS CORPORAL.
A Marine on Duty in Samoa Killed
by His COmrade.

San Francisco, July 19.-According to a
statement made by member of the ma
rine guard that was stationed at the Unit
ed States Consulate at Apia during the
recent hostilities in Samoa, Private Hollo-
way. of the marines. was not killed by a
Samoan. but was the victim of an Ameri
can bullet sent from gun in the hands OF
one of his own comrades.
Holloway's life, it is asserted, never
would have been sacrificed had it not
been for the actions of the commander
OF the guard, Lieut. c. Morrast Perkins,
who without justification, constantly in
formed the men that they were in Immi-
nent danger of annihilation-
He caused them repeatedly to fire in
the dead of night at an imaginary foe,
and had them worked up to such a ten
sion that their guns were continually Fop-
ping, and at nothing, as the hostile Sa-
means kept at a safe distance. OF the
death of Holloway the marine said:
"On a dark, rainy night Holloway was
on guard leaning against the front steps,
with his waterproof coat wrapped around
him. At 1890 O'Clock one of the corpoFals
obtained permission to go under the house
with light to search for the enemy, who,
he declared, were hiding there. After a
very exhaustive search. with revolver at
full cock in one hand and lantern in the
other. he returned to the yeranda, re-
ported that he could find no one, and re-
sumed his station. Suddenly. after a Short
time he jumped up, calling out: There
tney are,' and began 10 fire out across the
front veranda. Several others near him
heard Holloway cry, oh, my God. and saw
him fall
1t is said that the marines were not we'll
handled and they and the officer in COM
mand were censured when they returned
to the ship.

MORE WAGES FOR SHELTERS.
Owners and Strikers in Colorado
Nearing an Agreement.

Owners and Strikers in Colorado
Nearing an Agreement.
Colorado Springs, Col, July 19.-While
the effect of the supreme court decision
declaring the eight -hour-day law unconsti-
tutional has been to remove all grounds OF
dispute between smclicr owners and strik-
ing employees, the latter will probably Sc
cure advanced wages and shorter hours.
The strike was for ten hours pay for eight
hours work Now that the eight-hour law
is declared invalid, it would seem that
nothing remains but to resume work as
formerly.
Pending the decision, however, smelter
owners and the strikers were occupied with
overtures that will result to the advantage
of the latter. The Colorado Philadelphia
Reduction Works. at Colorado City, en-
ploying 120 men will continue at prices en-
suring Is per cent advance. At Leadville
eight, ten, and twelve-hour shifts are as
sured. AT Florence $50 men are employed
and an eight-hour day will prevail. A new
scale at Pueblo is assured by which the
employees will gain. At Denver, according
to President Grant, 10 per cent advance
is probable. The strike thus far has cost
$4,000, 900 in shortage in mineral output,
and $5,000,000 in wages direct and indirect
A general resumption about August /, is
likely.
