CHINESE PROPOSE ID PROVE
 <. THAT MINISTER'S ARE L|V|NC|

is to protect our frontier and to steer into smooth waters the Chinese ship of state now buffeted by the waves of civil war"
 Two urgent dispatches were addressed yesterday by the Chinese Minister to the Pekin Government and to the director of telegraphs, strongly advocating the neces- sity of restoring telegraphic communica- tion with a view of enabling the powers to obtain proof of the safety of the foreign Ministers. Until such proofs are secured no one is inclined to altar the opinion that the Chinese are merely Juggling to gain time.
 The Indian troops are daily arriving at Hong Kong. Three transports reached there yesterday, and two others have left Hong Kong for Taku. Reports from Can ton say the city is outwardly quiet, but that there is strong undercurrent of un- rest among the Chinese. Only a few of the European ladies have left, many still remaining.
 St. Petersburg dispatches report the situ- ation in Manchuria as far more serious than has been supposed. It is asserted that the Chinese have occupied Hailar, where the Russian Railway is surrounded and in desperate straights.
 According to the St. Petersburg corre- spondent> of the Times General Kouropat- kin, the Russian Minister of War, will probably become commander-in-chief of the Russian forces in China, and will pre- sumably take command of the allied troops.

London, July 24.-4 a. m.-The Chinese minister, Sir Chih Shen Lo Feng Luh, has communicated to the press the following dispatch from Sheng, director-general of general Chinese telegraphs, and Tao Tai of Shanghai, dated Shanghai, July 23:
 "Information from Pekin dated July IS says that the Tsung- Yamen deputed Won Jul, an under secretary of the department, to see the foreign minister's and he found every one we'll without any missing, the German minister excepted. General Wung Lo is going to memorialize the throne to send them all under escort to Tien Tsin in the hope that the military operations will then be stopped.'
 The Shanghai correspondent of the Daily Mail, telegraphing July 23, says:
 "A letter from Chinese official in Shang Tung has been received by native mis- sionary here containing the following pas sages At the beginning of the month the foreign missionaries made several attempts to send messages out of Pekin, but, thanks to the strict watch kept on the city, the bearers were all caught and executed. On the 4th only four hundred foreigners, much exhausted, were left alive in Pekin, and one night when the big guns were inces- sanity fired 1t was known that all the lega- tions and foreigners were finished, although pretended telegrams contradict these facts |"
 Rumor circulated briskly around the per- sonality of Ii Hung Chang. He is credited with a mission to offer to cede to the allied powers two provinces as indemnity for the Pekin outrages and also to offer to restore order and give facilities for trade with the outside world on condition of the surrender of Kiao Chou, Wei-Hai-Wei and Manchu- ria by the powers and the withdrawal of all missionaries Little attention, how ever, need be paid to these rumors. In message from Shanghai it is asserted that u Hung Chang avows that the object of his journey is to place the regular Chinese army in line with the allied powers for the suppression of the Boxers.
 PIa, ing a old Game
 The Times editorially suggests that Lii Hung Chang is playing the old game of sublime porte by putting down proposals which will appear in different degrees and ways to different powers. It says:
 President Mckinley has been asked to mediate and the request is facilitated, which has been taken in Washington not to commit the United States to any very thorough going policy"
 The St. Petersburg correspondent of the Daily Mail asserts that there are differ ences of opinion in the Russian council of war; The Minister of War, General Krou- patkin, wishes to send 100000 men to clear the rebels out of Manchuria. On the other hand, according to this correspondent, Elm peror Nicholas wishes the number limited 10 the defense. Let the strong armies, one of the allies and the others of Rus sinas go to China," so the Czar is said to argue

By a VoIIey Fired by Deputy
 SheriffS.
THE SOLDIERS CAME TOO LATE
The Mob Finally Secured Their Man, and After Identification the As sault on Susie Priest, Fac
 tory Girl, Was Avenged

Huntsville, July 23-tSpecial.)-After be- ing repulsed by volley from rifles in the hands of deputy sheriffs a mob of one thousand determined men resorted to a unique plan today and smoked Sheriff Full ghum out of the Madison County jail, took Elijah Clark from his cell and hanged him to tree near the Dallas mills and avenged the fiendish assault on Susie Priest poor factory girl.
 The negro was carried to the girl and identified then taken to Moore Grove and swung to a limb, his body being riddled with bullets and shot.
 The body is at late hour tonight swing ing to a limb in a deserted grove and stands as a warning to other negroes who may have an idea of committing this crime.
 Clark was guilty of one of the most das- tardly cases of assault ever committed in North Alabama. He caught Susie Priest and her sister, Nellie Priest, out in lone- Iy field and grabbed the former by the throat, threatening to cut her heart out if she did not submit to him. Nellie Priest escaped and gave the alarm in Dallas. Within few minutes the entire male pop ulation of the village was in pursuit of the negro, who fled into the mountain.
 Searcttd All Night
 The search for the negro continued all night Denuties were also after him and he was captured by Deputies Phillips and lamar at the home of relatives near Meridianville, eight miles from the scene of the crime.
 Clark was in bed with two cousins, and they made an attempt to conceal him by sleeping on him. He was hustled out and brought to the city at an early hour this morning. Clark confessed to the deputies that he was the negro that assaulted the girl, and said that knowing that she was a poor factory girl he thought nothing would be done with him.
 When the news spread over town that the negro was in jail, the male population of Dallas suspended work, causing nearly the entire Dallas mill to shut down, came to town and surrounded the jail. The men brought rifles, shot guns and pistols with them and were ready for any kind of trouble. Sheriff Fulghum was requested to hand over the keys. He refused, saying that the mob would have to kill him to get them

THE UNITED STATES
 WILLING TO MEDIATE
Has Listened to an Appeal from the Chinese Gov
 ernment and Transmitted Reply.

and to the restoration of order. The Chinese appeal came to Secretary Hay yes- terday through Minister Wu. The Secre- tary promptly telegraphed it to the Presi- eent at Canton, and after taking a full day for it's consideration, the Presidents ans- wer came today to the State Department It was put in the proper diplomatic form and a copy delivered to Minister Wu, who is to forward it to his own government. Appeal and answer will be made public here tomorrow.
 Has Taken the First St D
 The imperial edct made public today at the State Department shows that the im- perial government has already taken the first step toward doing what the United States requires as the principal condition for the exercise of it's good offices in en- joining the Viceroys, magistrates and lead- ing men to stop the disorders and protect foreigners. Our government will await the result of this before proceeding further.
 It is expected that adverse criticism upon the action of the State Department in this matter will be heard from Europe where the governments are acting upon the belief that all the foreign Ministers in Pekin have per1shed, but our government nevertheless regards its course as the correct one. All or the European governments have taken the stand above indicated.
 The last of the answers to Secretary Hays note reciting the Conger message have come, and all of them in terms polite and diplomatic, express utter incredulity in the authenticity of the Conger dispatch Consul Goodnow, himself a man of good judgment also cabed a warning to Sec retary Hay against the acceptance of the message without confirmation. But the State Department feels it to be matter of prime duty to act upon the theory that 1t is genuine
 Admiral Remey's notification to the de- partment that he had gone in person upon the Pei Ho from Taku to Tien Tsin is at tributed to the receipt by him of Secretary Longs urgent message to hasten the eff forts to get to Pekin, and important news from him Is expected soon. The War De- partment, it appears, underestimated the time that would be required for the Grant to arrive at Nagasaki. She sailed on the first instant, so that she is not yet quite due at that port with General Chaffee.
 The Goodnow cablegram reciting the message from Prince Yuan as vouching for the safety of the foreign Ministers on July IS caused a ripple of excitement for time at the State Department, but the officials soon concluded from the context and other circumstances surrounding the message that Yuan was meant for Yuan, so that the message lost the value it would have had if it had come from the redoubtable Boxer leader.

CHAFFEE TO HAVE
 SOME GOOD HELP

Washington, July 23.-Although the or ders have not been issued, it is pretty gen. orally understood in military circles that Brigadier General F. D. Grant, U. S. ", and Brisadier General Thomas P. Barry have been selected for assignment to ser vice with the military division in China Their assignment together with that of Brigadier General James H. Wilson, U. s. ", already announced, will give Major General A. R. Chaffee, commanders n-chief, three general officers of recognized ability to assist him in the management of the military operations in China.
 General Grant is now on duty with the troops in the Philippines, being stationed near Manila. General Barry is a passenger on the transport Sumner, which left San Francisco on the 18th for Nagasaki. Gen. eral J. II. Wilson, the senior brigadier commander now at Matanzas, Cuba is ex- pected to start on his long jurney to the Orient immediately.
 The transport Grant is expected to arrive at Nagasaki early this week, possibly to- morrow or next day She left San Fran cisco on the first, with Major General Chaf- fee, two troops of the Sixth and battalion of marines. It>was originally intended to trans-ship these troops at Nagasaki to other transports, by which they were to be taken direct to Taku, and the Grant was to have continued on to Manila. The urgent need of these endorsements in China has necessitated a change in the plans, and orders have gone forward for the Grant to proceed direct from Nagaski to Taku, stopping only long enough to take coal.

 A NORFOLK HOTEL
George A. Brown Killed Himself With Morphine Woman
 in the Case.

Norfolk, Va, July 23.-A tragic death, surrounded by strange circumstances, oc- cured at the Monticello Hotel last night. The dead man is George Allison Brown of Baltimore, about 45 years of age, and well connected in that city.

 Saturday afternoon Dr. Starley H. Graves was called to the hotel to attend Mrs Gray, who was found to be in critical condition from morphine and cocaine pois- oning. Brown, who was found in her room, said the woman had poisoned herself.
 After heroic measures the patient be- gan to revive. Upon Dr. Graves leaving the woman to go to the telephone Brown was allowed in the room with her. Upon the doctors return the patients condition was found to be worse, but she was again brought out of danger
 Yesterday the woman left for Baltimore Late last night Brown was found dead in his bed as the result of morphine and CO., caine.
 The coroner reached a verdict today that Brown came to his death from morphine and cocaine poisoning administered by him. self.

She is a sister of Rev John w. Paxton, a Presbyterian mission ary now in China. She married Dr. George Lennon of Lynchburg and After his death welded Mardin D. Massie a prominent Danville attorney. Mrs. Massie came to Norfolk with the intention of marrying Brown. When she learned that Brown was a victim of the morphine habit she refused to marry him and left for Baltimore.

THROUGH MINISTER WU The Exact Terms Prepared Are
 Not Stated. THIS MAY BE GIVEN OUT TODAY It is Stated on Good Authority That the United States Has Made Certain
 Conditions Regarding Min isters and Missionaries
THIS MAY BE GIVEN OUT TODAY

Washington July 23.-The President has ernment as transmitted through Minister Wu, and has signiied his willingness to mediate between the Imperial Government and the Powers, but only upon conditions which must first be met by the Chinest Government.
 The exact terms proposed by the United States cannot be stated until tomorrow, when it is expected that publication will be made of the text of the Chinese appeal and of the Presidents message. It is not known, however that this is entirely con- sistent with the statement of principle laid down by Secretary Hay in his identical note to the Powers, and moreover it &C., cepts as truthful the Chinese statements relative to the safety of the foreign Minis ters at Pekin.
 It would not, of course, be possible to take even the initial steps toward media tion were either party to the negotiations to entertain openly any distrust of the accuracy of the statements of the others. There must be confidence between them. The United States answer does not go to the length of the French answer to sim liar appeal in laying down conditions which the Chinese Government could not meet, even If so disposed, if 1t is actually struggling for existence
 It does, however, look to the immediate relief of the foreign missionaries in Pekin, and moreover to the protection of all for eigners, missionaries and traders in China

mile distant. The negro was taken to the home of Susie Priest and the girl was asked If this was the negro.
 .sThat Is the Man"
 She said: That is the man; I can prove 1t by Nelie" The girls sister also said this was the man. The trembling wretch lost control of his legs and members of the mob were compelled to carry him to the Moore Grove. A rope was tied around his neck and he was dragged part of the way.
 In the old grove, which is now used as park for the mill operatives, Will Priest, brother of the outraged girl, threw the rope over the limb of an oak tree and tied it securely.
 The negro was mounted on horse and asked if he had anything to say. The ne- gro replied that he did not, and the horse was whipped from under him. In ten min utes the negro rapist was dead and then his body was filled with bullets from half hundred guns.
 No member of the mob made any attempt to conceal his identity, and every one en- gagged in the events of the day Is satisfied that justice has been done.

Gov. Johnston Makes Statement

Governor Johnston who is at his home in this city, stated last night that he would exert every effort to punish the men who were in the mob that lynched Clark at Huntsville yesterday. He did all in his power to prevent the lynching of the negro and had directed that court should be con- vened at once to try him. Had the negro not been lynched he would, in all probabili- ty, have been given a trial this week.
