Francis, We're hurried before the mob
to the place indicated by Davenport.
The negro led them to a. coal bank sew

and long but to no avail and only gave
up when relieved at daybreak by hum
dreds of other armed men, who took up
the hunt where the night shift had left
off.
The three negroes were finally sent to
Warrensburg and placed in jail for
safe keeping, and surrounding towns
We're wired for bloodhounds. Until these
arrive this afternoon it is not believed
that any progress viii be made by the
mob. The spot where Francis is be
ieVed to be hiding is in a negro set
tiement The surroundings are favor
able for him both because he has many
friends there and because the mine and
the thick brush afford hiding places.
Every white man in the neighborhood
is on the alert, however. and as every
avenue of escape is we'll guarded,
Francis viii surely be captured in time.

burg says:
