G BOYS LYNCHED.
They Had Murdered an Itinerant
Printer I'm SheIbyviIIe, ny.

SHELBYVILLE, KY, Oct. limbo
Fields, aged sixteen, and Clarence Garnett,
aged eighteen. both colored. were lynched
here at 2 o'clock this morning for the al
legged murder of Will C. Hart. a printer,
who was stoned to death on the night of
Saturday, Sept. q last. The boys were TAX
en- from the Jail and swung from the
Chesapeake & Ohio ~trestle. just beyond the
depot. and within 500 yards of the Jail. The
mob's work was done so quietly that no
citizens save the jailer and two or three
others knew of II for several hours.
The mob went to the Jail about 1870
o'clock this morning and demanded the
keys Of the jailer, but he refused to sur
render them. The doors of the Jail were
then battered down. The prisoners were re-
moved almost before they had time to re-
alize what was happening. The mob quick
ly dispersed without the identity or the
members becoming known.
Hart came to Shelbyville from Lebanon,
o., and at the time of his death was en-
plOyed as a printer on the Shelby Sentinel.
The details of his death are not accurately
known, but IL is conceded TO be a fact that
Fields and Garrett were his murderers.
Harris body was found at Z o'clock Satur-
day night, Sept. q, in a path leading from
the house of Annie Fields, the mother of
limbo Fields, in a negro settlement at Shell
byVille, called BucktOWn.

A VALUABLE PROPERTY
THE G., H.. Il ID. A ROAD WHICH OCCU-
PIES A UNIQUE POSITION.
The Resignation of President Hays
Much Commented On-General and
Personal Railway News.

There are not a half-dozen roads in the
country which occupy as unique a position
as does the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Day
ton. geographically and financially, it being
able TO act free Of all cliques. The majority
of the stock is held by a few persons who
are able to hold it. and it is a good invest
ment for them. improving with each year,
and so well are it's lines located that each
year shows increasing earnings. While 1t
is a c~lose-mouthed corporation. enough
leaks ouC TO show that the owners of the
property have no. occasion for anxiety as
TO its earning capacity and need have no
fear as to it's future. With extensions of
the Indiana. Decatur & Western, owned by
the same parties, additional business will
come to the road. In the year ending June
30, 1900, the earnings were the largest in the
company's history the passenger earnings
being over 81, 600. and it's freight earnings
the most satisfactory in years. Despite the
phenomenal business of that year, in the
year ended with June 90. 1901, there was not
q month in which the earnings, both pas
senger and freight, were not handsomely
in excess Of the preceding year. The In
dianapolis division did its share and its
connection with the Monon was the most
satisfactory In revenue derived since the
close traffic relations were formed. This in
crease in revenue was derived largely
through new business originating on its
own lines. and came with the prosperity of
the country generally. While the c., H. &
ID. is not directly interested in the Cincin-
natti. Richmond & Muncie, an interchange
of traffic is springing up which is a surprise
to the officials of the company, and as the
line extends ~northward will be a more valu-
able connection. Through its extension to
Springfield, ILL.,, which will be opened for
business in sixty days. excellent results are
looked for. OF late years the power of the
road, its passenger and freight equipment
have been increased until no road of its
mileage is better equipped or has as many
freight cars per mile. Since ID. G. Edwards
was appointed passenger traffic manager
Oct. l, 1896. he has brought the road into
more prominence as a line between the
North and South. and with its highly salts
factory local travel. despite trolley lines,
results have been a gratifying surprise. A.
G.. Mcleod, freight traffic manager of the
road and a veteran in freight service in this
territory, having been connected with the
freight service of the c., II. & ID. since Oct.
l. 1875, has, as in the case of MIR. Edwards
made a very creditable record.

why Hays Resigned.

So long was Charles NJ. Hays connected
with the Wabash and other lines in this
territory that his resignation as president
of the Southern Pacific is much talked of.
The New York Evening Post says: "When
Mr.. Hays took up the work of the South
ern Pacific presidency, just a year ago. a
career peculiarly enviable seemed open
of the roads of widest extent in this
country, practically free TO develop his
own policy, on a property strong In
strategic position, but admittedly not In
the best of condition to make the best
possible showing of revenue-earning ca
pacity. MIR. Hays's experience as general
manager of the Wabash and the Grand
down properties, had been the best posi-
BILE schooling for an officer taking up the
Southern Pacific presidency. a COM
pany's problem was not SO much a traffic
one-that department having long been In
able hands, with j. c.. Stubbs as traffic
necessary to build up the physical condi-
ton, and credit had to be created TO Sc
cure funds.
Those problems he was ready to meet,
but they delayed effective work, and
practically he had just been settled when
sold their interest in the Southern Pa
cifc stock. the holdings of Speyer * CO.
also being secured, to complete control,
which, therefore, passed to entirely diff
ferent interests than those upon which
Mr.. Hays had relied. Mr.. Hays found his
and different plans formulated, while his
expected free action in developing the
railroads problem was changed into a
policy of constant checks

GREAT POWER PLANT.
Part of the st. Lawrence River d.
verted at WATERFOWL. y. Y.

WATERFOWL. n. Y. Oct. 1.-The
water has been turned on to the wheels
of the plant of the st. Lawrence Com
pany at Massena. in the northern part of
st. Lawrence county, and started the larg-
est power-producing plant in this country.
Even the Niagara Falls power plant is
surpassed by this one. both in the amount
OF power produced and as an engineering
achievement. While at Niagara the fall is
greater the volume is not so great.
The two plants are constructed on en-
tirely different lines. At Niagara the
water is dropped down a we'll $50 feet
deep on the wheels below. At Massena the
wheels work horizontally, there being a
right and a left. so that the thrust Is mem
tralized. and the main shaft is but half the
length Of the Niagara shaft.
The cost OF this enterprise has been i'm
mense. The company was capitalized at
100000 and already $4,000 has been ex-
PENDED In the construction OF its plant
Thousands of acres of land have been pur-
chased. a canal has been built which will
defect from the st. Lawrence river a
stream of water 20 feet wide and twenty
FIVE feet deep and carry II a distance of
three miles to the De Grasse river. into
which IL will fall and mingle again with
the waters OF the 81. Lawrence a few miles
lower down.
