MEN HOLDING BACK.
Response to Skaters Request to
Strike Is Disappointing.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 13.-The strug-
gle for mastery between manufacture
ers and men in the steel industry is
now fairly launched, and on the first
show of strength advantage is with
the former. The general strike order
issued by President Shatfer, of the
Amalgamated association, has so far
been. obeyed by only about $4,000 men,
according to the best figures obtain
able here. The first two preliminary
calls were answered BY about $4,000
men, so that the total number now
outside is. in the neighborhood of co.
900. The strikers made gains here
Monday over the showing of Sunday,
and their prospects for further ac-
cessions at both McKeesport and
Wheeling during the week are very
favorable. The action of the Amalga-
mated men at Chicago, Joliet and Bay
View in refusing to come out, and
their failure to ecu any recruits in
1.-THE Carnegie group throughout the
Kiskiminetas valley and the big
plants at Youngstown and Columbus,
o., have been markedly disappoint-
Ing to them. They are keeping up
the fight, however, in a spirited man
ner, and claim that they have
strength in reserve which will sur
prise their opponents. They assert
that they have gained a foothold in
the Carnegie mills in this city, and at
the time desired the men will come
out. They are pressing their advan-
tages at McKeesport and Wheeling,
and their organizers are still at work
in those two cities.
President Shaffer has decided to
personally visit Wheeling, and will go
there Wednesday to address a mass
meeting of his followers. He plans
to spend to-day here directing the
fight and comforting with his assist
ants as to plans for the future. An
appeal for financial aid has been
made to organized labor, and the
general pubic, and it is expected
that the responses to it will be liber-
al. The .Amalgamated leaders were
not disposed to do much talking.
They would not discuss the desertion
of their western fellows, although
Mr.. Shaffer made what was evident
" intended for a brief reference to
them in a short statement he gave
out at noon. Another declaration in
the same interview was regarded as
highly significant here. 1t vas to the
effect that no effort would be made
to call out members of the American
Federation of Labor, and that any
on their part must be volun-

Georgians Capture Negro Assailant
of White Woman.

Savannah, Ga, Aug. 12.-The negro
assailant of Mrs. j. j.. Clark was cap
tured at Liberty City Friday by R. l..
Young, a section master of the Sea-
board air line. Friday night he was
taken to Ways Station and identified
by Mrs. Clark positively. While be-
ing removed from Ways to Bryan
county Jail the prisoner was taken
away from his captors by a mob, and,
it is reported, was burned at the
stake. Positive news of the lynch
ing is lacking and could not be Sc
cured. Advices come from the man
! who captured the assailant of Mrs,
Clark, who says that he was ordered
to leave the vicinity by the men who
took the negro from his custody.
With his prisoner Mr.. Young reached
Ways Station at $3.50 o'clock, but
found no one in authority waiting to
receive him and take charge of the
negro. The negro up to this time had
stolidly denied all knowledge of the
! assault upon Mrs. Clark. He was car
ried before his victim, and she posi-
lively identified him as the man who
had assaulted her. She said there
could be no doubt that the negro I'M
der arrest was the guilty man, and
with this positive assurance Mr..
Young started with his prisoner for
Bryan county Jail. He was not per-
mitted to reach his destination. Five
hundred yards from the place where
the crime was committed a mob of
400 or 500 men was collected. Its
leader demanded the surrender of the
pris oner, and Mr.. Young had no al
tentative but obedience to their de-
mand. He was ordered then to leave
the vicinity, and he obeyed this com
mand. A short time afterward he
saw a fire, the flames from which
assembled above the tops of the sur
rounding trees. He telegraphed that
he had no doubt that the negro was
burned at the STAKE.
In the HAMS of the Mob.
Later the story of the burning of
the negro was confirmed. His positive
Identification by his victim sealed his
fate. A mob of 400 men clamored for
his life, but the leaders of the mob,
numbering less than a dozen, carries
into execution the plans of vengeance
they had formed. The rest of the
mob was kept at a distance and was
not permitted to come within 100 yards
of the pace where Washington met
his death. This was at a spot a few
feet from the railway track and not
500 yards from the house in which the
ravisher committed the crime for
which he paid so dreadful a penalty.
He walked to his death without a trem-
or and met it without a prayer or an
appeal for mercy. He admitted his
guilt of crimes incident to the princi-
pal one, which proved his guilt of that.
But to the end he stubbornIy refused
to acknowledge that he had assaulted
Mrs. Clark. Along the side of the rail
way track a crowbar was driven into
the earth. To this Washington was
forced, and bound in a sitting posi-
ton. His legs extended straight in
front of him on either side of the bar.
A chain held him fastaround the waist,
while a heavy rope encireled the bar
and his neck.

Doughty was seen by reporter,
and he stated he was here to see
our commercial men, soliciting
their business over his line, but
when asked about the Frisco build
ing to Ardmore said he did not
know when that would be done,
but in his judgment, it would be a
very wise thing for the Frisco peo-
pie to do; that it would cost but
comparatively little for them to do
so at the present, and that he con
sidered Ardmore one Of the busiest
places in the Indian Territory. He
said if it was left to him the road
would be started here at once.

and put spurs to the animal The

suit, Frazier leading about $50
yards.
