Driving The Negroes Out.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. ga
special to the Sentinel from Evan
sville. Ind, says:
"Cities and towns along the
Ohio river have begun q crusade
against the negroes. The entire
trouble dates back to the lynching
of the negroes in Rockport and
Boonevillt for the murder Of the
white barber. Simmons, at Rock
port, one night last month.
"The board of safety of this city
has ordered the police to arrest all
strange negroes and bring them
before the city police judge. II
they cannot give reason for being
here they will be sentenced to the
rock pile. The object Of this or
der is to rid the town of an obno>
xious class of negroes. It is esti-
mated there are 1900 colored men
in this city. who absolutely refuse
to work. They spend their time
lin the colored saloons and low
dives of the city and live the best
way they can. On election day
they are in the market, and the
man who bids the highest is the
man who lands them.
"The board of safety was led to
take this step by the action of the
Spencer county grand jury in in
dieting l39 negroes Of Rockport
for selling their vote on election
day. The citizens committee has
been actively at work for the past
month arranging the preliminary
evidence to be presented to the
grand jury. 1t is said an attempt
will be made to have the blacks
who are indicted arraigned in
court in one day, and it is desired
that they be sent to the state pri-
son at the same time. Such a pro-
ceeding would be novel thing in
the history of Indiana jurispru-
dence.
"Other towns in Indiana along
the river are taking step to drive
the worst element of negroes
away. In some towns no negroes
are permitted to live. Vigilance
committees have been appointed
at Grand View, Enterprise, Tell
City and Leavenworth. Since the
recent trouble at Newbury many
of the colored people have left
that town."

GOES
OVER A BLUFF
Fatal Accident on the Canadian
Pacific Railroad.
ENGINEER AND FIREMAN DEAD
RAN INTO A PILE OF ROCKS ON
THE TRACK.

Seattle, Wash, Dec. "a special to
the Times from Vancouver, B. c., says;
At 5:15 this morning, as a Canadian
Pacific freight train was proceeding
east at a slow rate around a dangerous
curve 400 feet above the Fraser river.
Engineer Randall suddenly came upon
a rockside scarcely fifty. yards ahead
of him. A signal was given TO the
brakemen and the engine was reversed,
but it was too late.
The train was scarcely going FIVE
miles an hour, but the heavy train be-
hind piled the engine on the rocks, and
before the engineer and fireman could
jump, the engine was jerked from the
track and rolled over and over 300 feet
down the sheer bluff toward the river.
Engineer A. Randall and Fireman Pot
ruff were thrown out and crushed to
death beneath the engine, Both were
killed instantly.
The dead men came from KamlOOps.
Randall leaves a wife and children.
POtruff was married only a couple of
months ago. Three cars Of the freight
were wrecked, going over the bank aft-
er the engine. As a result of the acci-
dent the WestbOund train will be de-
layed six hours.

SEVERAL KINDS. OF SENSATIONS
TURNED UP IN A DIVORCE CASE

Attorney D. n. Straup got uncom-
fortably close to the danger line in
Judge Halls court yesterday after
noon during the presentation Of a
motion for temporary alimony, counsel
fees, etc, in the divorce case Of Minnie
E. Shettle VS.. William H Shettle. Mrs.
Shettle filed her suit some days ago
and asked that she be granted suf-
ficient funds to enable her to prose-
cute the action. The ground alleged
was failure to support. The motion
for temporary alimony was set for yes
terday, but when the defendant showed
up he brought along a crosse complaint.
which embraced some very racy ale
cations against his wife. Among other
things, he charged that she committed
adultery with Charles E Shettle, a
brother of the defendant, at Saltair on
July -, 1900, and at other times and
places Shettle also charged that she
had committed adultery with other
men and had treated him with extreme
cruelty. On one occasion. he COM
plains, she struck him and spat in his
face, and at another time called him
vile name and threw a pan OF dish
water upon him.
When the motion came up yesterday
Mr.. Straup, as attorney for Mrs. Shet-
tie, examined her, and her testimony
was to the effect that she had no
means and that her husband was en-
plcyed at the Last Chance mine in
Bingham She also testified that she
separated from her husband about two
years ago.
At this point Judge Mcdowell, for
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1901-12-07

the defendant, read the answer and
Judge Hall remarked that he was not
inclined to order the husband to pay
any money to the wife at present it
appearing that the husband had sup
ported the children and it not appear
ing that she was justified in leaving
him
Mr.. Straup later asked for a contin-
uance of the motion in order that he
might secure additional witnesses to
show that the wife was in the right
in leaving her husband. A suggestion
was then made to the court that the
case might as well be tried, and right
here is where Mr.. Straup got up
against it.
We'll, if your honor please, I got
caught in one case once because I was
unable to secure sufficient witnesses,
anG don't want to get caught again "
What case was that?" the court
asked, with considerable interest.
The Vail case" Mr.. Straup an
sWered. with some hesitation.
Didn't you get justice in that case?''
asked the court.
''Oh. I didn't mean to criticise your
honor" Mr.. StraUp FASTENED to add.
al meant was that I could not get
the witnesses / wanted"
4 did what I could to shield the
woman in the case" the court contin-
ued.
Certainly" replied Mr.. StTaup, and
there the matter was allowed to drop.
Mr.. Straup then dismissed his mo-
ton for alimony and may renew it at
q later date The court assured him.
however, that Mrs. Shettle would be
protected in the matter of witnesses
when they were needed.

ers' Union.

Officers were elected at a meeting
Of the Cigar Makers union last even
ing and a campaign was instituted to
agitate home patronage for home in
dustry. Speeches were made protesting
that almost everything required by
the citizens of Salt Lake could be man
ufactured here and that it is the duty
Of Salt LakeTs to patronize home in
dustries.
While it is the desire and intention
of the cigar makers to urge the con-
sumption of local union made cigars to
the exclusion of outside non union
goods and cigars of Chinese manufac-
ture it was decided to make the home
patronage movement general and in
vite other unions to cooperate in
spreading the propaganda During the
last few months the union cigar MAX
ers have spent 500 a month in Salt
Lake City to advertise local union
made goods. 1t was decided to con-
tinue the movement on a larger. scale
and TO boycott several brands of cigars
made under conditions considered detri-
mental to public health.

FIRE CHIEFS SALARY
Robertson Blocked Discussion
of the Subject by the Coun.
Gil Committee.

Chairman Whittemore of the com
mittee on fire department was denied
the opportunity last evening of bring
ing up for discussion the question Of
an increase Of salaries for Chief De-
vine and the men in the department.
It was about a year ago that Mayor
Thompson recommended that the SAL
aries Of all the policemen and firemen.
from the chiefs down, be restored to
where they were before the hard
times reduction was made operative.
but Councilman Whittemore did not
see mt until last evening to call the
matter up for consideration by the
committee Of which he is the head.
The mayors suggestion was referred to
the committee on fire department, with
the finance committee associated, in so
far as it related to the firemen's sal
aries, and that part relating TO the
salaries of the police was referred to
the committee of that department
There is just one thing more" said
Chairman Whittemore. at last evenings
meeting of the fire department com
mittee, at the close of a desultory dis
eussion of routine matters relating to
the department. Lets see if we can't
do something about raising the sal
aries of the chief and his men. as the
mayor recommended long ago"
I object to considering this ma tier, -
inteTjected Councilman Robertson,
because the chairman has not seen
fit to notify the finance committee of
this meeting"
We'll, the chief has something to
say" Whittemore volunteered.
NO, I haven't" answered Chief De-
vine.
After some further discussion the
meeting adjourned over the protest of
Chairman Whittemore.
While the meeting was in session
several matters were brought up, in
GLIDING the proposition to purchase a
new fire engine at q cost of $1,000, and
the propriety of investing the fire
mems relief fund, which now amounts
to about $1,000, but all matters were
laid over to be considered by the new
councils committee. The only matter
disposed of was the agreement to rec
Ommend to the council the expenditure
of not to exceed $500 in equipping a
new library and reception room at
headquarters.
