CRIME IN PARIS.


Paris, Dec. H. The close Of the ex.
position throwing thousands out OF
employment, has created abnormal
criminal conditions in Paris. The
sensation caused by the murder OF
the man whose body was found IN
two praceIs in the streets here De-
cember 4 and which is still wrapped
in mystery, has directed attention TO
the fact that the outlying quarters
of Paris are infested by bands of foot
pads and hoodlums who terrorzc the
residents. The papers are filed with
accounts of their nightly exploits.
Two respectable workmen were at
tackled few nights ago by four
providers wig, after picking II quar-

workmen and stabbed the other in

ers has yet been traced. A feature OF
these nocturnal attacks ~ that they

emily by bloodthirsty criminals, fire.
quently boys in their teens.
In fairness IL must be said that the
present condition Of crime is largely
due to the number of wOrkmen, street

Paris attracted by the exposition and
who are now walking the streets out
Of work. T. is estimated by the sta
tistician of the central labor bureau
that in % trades 2l2,000 out of 10000

lands, who waylaid, brutally MUIR
dered and robbed Hollie Simons, a
white barber, early yesterday morn
ing, were lynched in the Jail yard by
a mob of 1000 frenzied citizens last
night. The negroes were arrested
early and, although Rowlands' cloth
ing had blood stains on it,. the men
claimed they were innocent of the
crime. In the meantime Sheriff
Clements, of Union county, Ky, ar
lNed with a trained bloodhound in
response to Geographic summons.
When the dog was placed on the trail
he followed it until he reached the
house where Rowlands lived, six
blocks from the scene of the murder,
and went baying to the bed the me-
gro had occupied. This was enough
for the excited citizens. Within .
few minutes mob Of 1000 bowling,
blood-thirsty citizens, with sledge
hammers, ropes and guns were run,
ming to the Jail.
Failing to get the keys from tho
sheriff, the mob secured a telegraph
pole, used it as a battering ram and
caved in the side wall of the Jail.
The door of Rowlands' cell was then
quickly broken in with sledges and he
was dragged from the Jail to the east
side of the court yard, where moose
was placed about his neck. He was
given time to make statement, in
which he implicated jim Henderson.
Rowlands then begged piteously for
mercy, but the mob swiftly swung the
confessed murderer to a tree and rid
died his body with bullets.
Leaving the body of Rowlands
dangling from the limb of the tree,
the mob rushed back to the Jail and
broke into Hendersons cell. The ne
gro, more dead than alive, was
dragged at ropes end to the court
house yard and, swung on the tree
beside the body of Rowlands.

ANOTHER LYNCHING.
John Rolla Is Implicated in Hollie
Simons' Murder at Bonneville.
IS The THIRD VICTIM OF The mob.
Body Of 100 Men from Rockport Marched
to the jail and BATTERED In the
Walls The Militia Ordered
Out Too Late.

Bonneville, Ind, Dec. 1S.-John Rol-
Ia, the third of the colored men M
plicated in the murder Of Hollie Sim
ons, was hung to tree in the court
house yard by mob of about 100
men from Rockport at $3.50 O'Clock
yesterday evening. Not a shot was
fred and everything was conducted
as quietly as if the execution had
been one under the sanction of the
law. Rolla was brought to this place
in the afternoon in charge Of Sheriff
Anderson, of Rockport. Upon his ar
rival he was placed in cell on the
second floor of the Jail and his pres
ence was known only to a few citi.
zens. A few minutes after five o'clock
body Of 100 men marched through
the principal street of the town tn
the Jail and demanded that the pris-
oner be turned over to it. On being
refused the mob at once began to bat
ter in the wall of the Jail with tele-
graph pole, which was handled by a
dozen or more men. As soon as a
hole large enough to admit the body
of a man was battered through .ie
wall six members of the mob crawled
through with sledge hammers and
broke down the door of Rolla's cell
When the men reached his cell he pro-
tested his innocence in loud tones,
begging piteously to be spared.
A few minutes time was consumed
in the march TO the Jail yard, where
the rope was thrown over the limb IF
q tree and 100 willing hands pulled the
rope and sent The negro's body flying
into the air.
Rolla confessed his share in the
crime, admitting that he struck the
first blow, and that the two other ne.
groes helped him to kill Simons.
Gov. Mount was advised by the
sheriff that a mob had started from
Rockport to Bonneville with the in
tention Of lynching Rolla, and the
governor instructed Capt. Blum, Of
company E, located at Evansville, to
get his men under arms as expedi.
tously as possible and proceed to
Bonneville on special train. After
being informed Of the lynching Gov.
Mount countermanded the order for
the militia to proceed to Bonneville.

WILL NOT RE-ENLIS7
Volunteers Not Likely to Serve Be-
yond Their Present Term.
ROOT WANTS CAyTEEy RESTORED,


Washington, Dec. l5.--The opinion
is expressed at the war department
that there is no prospect OF a general
re-enlistment on the part of the vol
unteers in the Philippines. The rec
ords of the department all tend to
show that only small percentage
Of the state troops are likely to serve
beyond their present term of enlist
ment. Officers serving with volunteer
regiments in the Philippines have
been sounded on tina! point and have
reported a general Discrimination on
the part of the volunteers to prolong
their foreign service. 1t is recalled
that a similar state of affairs existed
among the state volunteers recruited
during the Spanish war. There were
about 10000 of these volunteers in
the Philippines when the volunteer
regiments were mustered out at the
close of the Spanish war, and of that
number only 1850 re-enlisted for serv-
ice in the Philippines in the present
volunteer army, notwithstanding the
liberal inducements offered by the
government to that end, including
travel pay allowance to the amount
OF $500 to each man who re-enlsted.
Root Wants tho Cnnteen Restored.
Washington, Dec. l5.-Secretary
Root was before the senate commit
tee on military affairs for two hours
yesterday going over the army reor-
ganization bill. He urged that the
anti-canteen provision inserted by the
house be stricken out, saying that
the canteen or post exchange is an
important factor in army life from
a social point of view. He feared it
might be difficult to secure recruits
with the canteen abolished. The Sec
rotary again dwelt upon the impor-
lance of speedy action upon the bill,
saying that transports for Manila
would begin to leave San Francisco
to-day and that all transports leaving
after this time would bring volunteer
soldiers back. He called attention to
the fact that civil government had
been established among some of the
Filipinos and said that it would not
do to leave them unprotected even
for short time.
Wants a Provision Restored to Army Bill.
Washington. Dec. 15.-Secretary
Root sent letter to Senator llawley,
chairman of the senate committee on
military affairs, asking him to restore
the provision in the army bill that
any officer Of the army, now on the
active list below the grade of briga-
der general, who served during the
civil war, when retired be retired
with the rank and pay of the next
higher grade. The provision was
stricken out of the measure by the
house. Adjt Gen. Corbin wrote to
the war secretary showing that the
omission of the provision would be
IN just 20 many old officers, now
about 10 be retired.
