BURNED The

MOB OBJECT TO EDITORIAL
AND HEADLINES.
CONTAINED IN PAPER
Tore Down Sign and Threatened to
Wreck Office and Lynch
Editor.

Cleveland, O., Sept. 14.-Clarence
M. Jones, proprietor of the Press
Post, was rescued from a mob of
several thousand people this evening
by the police, and a squad of patrol
men is now guarding the building in
which the printing plant is located.
Today's edition of the paper con-
tanned both an editorial and head
lines referring to the dead president
in a regarded as offensive by
the people, and popular Indignation
was soon manifested by the gather
ing of an excited crowd in front of
the Office on East Broad street.
Threats were made but no overt act
was committed until carriers began
to start out with their bundles of
papers for delivery to subscribers.
The crowd made a rush fcr the first
boy who appeared, seized his papers
and made a bonfire Of them in the
street. This was kept up until there
were no more papers to burn, and
then the crowd, which had grown to
large proportions, became demonstra-
tive, threatening to wreck the plant
and mob the proprietor. The en-
| ployes. had all quit their places but
Mr.. Jones remained in the building
and fearing to leave alone, telephon-
ed for the police. Chief Tyler soon
arrived with a squad of men. He ad-
dressed the crowd, counseling mod
Grafton and appealing to them to dis
perse. His speech he'd a quieting
effect, and a few minutes later Mr..
Jones, surrounded by half a dozen Of.
fcers emerged from the building, en-
amid jeers of the crowd.
The crowd dwindled somewhat but
did not dispense and again became
demonstrative. The police were pow.
erless and stood looking on while the
crowd procured a ladder and took
down the large sign from the front OF
the building and carried it out into
the street. The sign was quickly re
duced to kindling wood and another
bonfire was started. More police
were summoned and ropes were
stretched around the building tc
keep back the crowd. Later a
drenching rain fell and most of the
crowd sought shelter.

King Edward Would Like to Have
Him Do So.

London, Sept. Alt is learned by
the Associated Press that King Ed
ward is considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of the Duke of Cornwall and York at
tending the funeral of President Nc
Kinley. The uncertainty which ex'
lists here as to the date of the cere-
mony and lack Of knowledge of atti-
tude of President Roosevelt and
others towards suQh visit have pre-.
vented anything definite being decid-
ed upon. The foreign Office heartily
endorses the suggestion, subject to
approval of the United States cabi,
net and consent of King Edward,
who, under the circumstances, is OBJ
viously most concerned. 1t is said
that if it is decided to be advisable
for Duke of York to attend the fun
Grad, Canadians will doubtless glad
ly put up with disarrangement OF
their programme consequent upon
such momentous diversion of the
royal tour. AS regards this sugges
ton and other official details, con
nected with Great Britain's efforts
to honor the dead president, great
uncertainty prevails, owing to Mar

Judge Goss' Hunting steed Afraid Of

DlICneS. t
From Sundays Daily Gazette.
Among those who have sailed out
into the country during the past few
days to put violent end to the mi
grations of some of the duck tribe,
which have begun their annual tour
to the south, was Judge Goss. The
judge left two or three days ago and
was inclined to be somewhat myster-
ious as to the destination he had in
view, Yesterday word reached town
that he had chosen the country about
the High Line ditch as the field of
his operations. 1t was also report
ed that he was unusually successful
in bagging game, but his success in
that direction was slightly marred
by a decidedly unpleasant personal
experience which befell him Friday
morning.
In order to get about the country
nor quickly and to save himself
the fatigue incident to the ordinary
mode of hunting, he provided him
self with a horse, which he was rid
ing while seeking the retreats Of his
feathered enemies. Although the
horse was shot proof and manifested
the same Indifference to the judges
bombardment that a we'll trained
artillery horse does to the popping
of a firecracker, he was short on
nerve in the matter of water. In
consequence of which the judge re-
ceived an immersion in the ditch
that would have filled the heart Of a
Baptist with joy. 1t all came about
by the horses refusal to cross the
ditch. Instead of quietly wading
across, the animal insisted on turn
ing a somersault, a performance for
which the rider was not prepared and
he landed head first in the cold
water, but heroicially retained his
hold on the game he was carrying
and safely reached the opposite bank

such other ceremonies as may be held

building was closed today out of re-
spect to the memory of President Nc
Kirley, and preparations we're begun
for receiving the body of the pres
ident, which will lie in state in the
rotunda as did the bodies Of Presi-
den Lincoln and Garfield. The cap
itol on both sides of the rotunda is

lieved that this circumstance will in
terfere in any way with the public
ceremony of mourning.
When President Garfield's ) body
lay in the capitol the public assam
bled on the east front of the building
and going in at the main door in dou-

the people separating into two lines

order will be preserved at the forth

will be in the custody of a guard of

ate and house of representatives, as

les. The historical state catafalque,

NO FINANCIAL FURRY.
Clearing House Committee Say
There Will Be None.

New York, Sept. 13-Despite un-
favorable reports in Wall street, from
Buffalo, concerning the presidents
condition, the clearing house commit
tee did not meet today or tonight.
Members Of the committee say that a
meeting is entirely unnecessary. At
the last meeting several days ago, it
is claimed, steps were taken against
every possible contingency. The
claim is also made that the situation
has been largely discounted owing to
the length of time that has elapsed
since the attacks upon the life of the
president and the additional fact that
the worst was repeatedly feared to-
day while the stock markets were
open, and yet, though l~iquidations
we're extensive, nothing in the nature
of a panic developed.
Manager Sherer of the Clearing
House association said:
"The conditions financially are very
satisfactory. The preparations made
by the clearing house last Saturday
and Monday are all that we're neces-
sary. The banks r in a position to
lend all the money needed at usual
rates. No formal call has been is
sued for a meeting and it is not like.
