New York, April 1.-Workmen were

this body, including a white handker-
chief marked Drake" Park of re-
ceipted bill made out to H. W. Loree

CHARGED WITH LYNCHING.
Prominent South Carolina Citizens to be
Tried by the Federal Court.

Prominent south Carolina Citizens to be
Tried by the Federal Court.
Charleston, S. c.. April Fifteen
prominent citizens Of Lake City, S. c.,
will be put on trial here in the United
States Circuit Court next week to an
swer the charge of having lynched
Postmaster Fraser B. Baker, more than
a year ago. Beside killing the post
master, who was negro, the alleged
lynchers will have to answer for killing
Bakers infant child and for burning
the Lake City postoffice, with all its eff
fects. 1t is said that other arrests will
be made before the case is taken up.
The indictment will go to the grand
jury and the hearing will begin at once.
Eighty witnesses for the government
have been summoned and there is a
great array of witnesses for the de-
Tense.
This is the first time on record that
the Federal Government has come into
the South to take up a lynching trial
The murder Of Baker was probably the
most brutal crime known in the history
of the State. Baker was appointed post
master at Lake City, and before he
took charge OF the office he was warn
ed to keep away. He refused, and an
attempt was made to kill him soon
after his commission was received. This
failed and then regular band was or
ganized to put him out of the way.
The defendants in this case are Ezra
Mcknight, w. A. Webster, M. V. Ward,
Moultrie Epps, H. C. Goodwin, C. j..
Joiner, Oscar Kelly, Edwin Rogers, Al
ONO Rodgers, Henry Stokes, Allen
Belk, Van Somerford, Early P. Lee, j..
P. Newman and Marion Clark. They
are representative business men from
the Lake City section.
According to the testimony given at
the preliminary hearing by NEWMAN
and Lee, who turned States evidence,
the Lake City band of lyinchers was
organized for the special purpose of
killing Baker. The negro had refused
to leave town and give up the office,
and the white people rebelled at the
idea of a cOlored postmaster.
