STRIKE IN KNOXVILLE.
Public Sympathy Seems toaBe With
 the Unionists.

Knoxville. Tenn, Aug. 2.-The sec- ond day of the street car strike finds the situation unchanged save that the fact that public sympathy has greatly increased favor of the striking mo- tormen and conductors.
 At one time during the day as many as thirteen cars were operated, but no attempt was made to run them af- ter o'clock tonight. The last one in had a narrow escape. Near the South ern Railway depot a mob of men took 1t in charge and demanded that the new men abandon it. Conductor Hale compiled but the new motorman, man named Rawlston from Nashville, had to be pulled out Superintendent Howard and other officials of the trac- ton company went to the scene and in thirty minutes had succeeded in get ting the car to the barn. amid the jeers of hundreds.
 The traction company, early in the day took a step whereby it was hoped the strike declared would end. The company proposed to reinstate all men who quit work because other men had been discharged presumably because they belonged to the union. However, to be reinstated they must 80 to work today or never. Not d single striker accepted the condition. Five experi- enced street car men arrived here this morning from Nashville. but there were no other importations.
 To offset this. five employees of the traction company joined the union and the outlook for operating more than six cars tomorrow is slim. Thou sands of people are wearinw little tags

VIRGINIA CONVENTION.
Debate on Preamble to the Proposed
 Constitution.

Richmond, Va, Aug. 2.-The Consti- tutional Convention proved strong att traction today, the attendance being the largest yet noted.
 The audience was attracted by the prospect of hearing the debate on the preamble to the proposed new Con stitution, and included many of the most prominent men and women of the State. Delegate Wysor was the first speaker recognized, and he spoke at some length in support of his amend ment.
 Before the debate began, the ques- ton of an adjournment for few weeks was privately discussed by indi- vidual members. and MT. O'Flaherty introduced a resolution for a recess until the s.22nd. No vote was taken, however. s@ssaas.--4
 A resolution was presented by MT. Bristow declaring the policy that no H. cense should be charged for the sale of manufactured products of farm, gar den, dairy or the waters of the State, and no railroad doing business in the State should be allowed to discriminate against the farm products of Virginia by granting lower freight rates to those products from other States.
 MT. Portlock presented a suffrage resolution, but it was not unlike many others presented.
 The Convention by a vote of 42 to 5, adopted a resolution to take a recess from tomorrow until August g on half pay, and to meet tomorrow at Il o'clock instead of noon. The Suffrage Committee was authorized to sit in va- cation.

CAPTAIN ROBSON SPEAKS
flakes Vigorous and Eloquent Ap- peal for Larger and Strong
 CT Navy

Madison. Wis. Aug. 2.-Richmond P. Hobson delivered an address at the Monona Lake Assembly before 5000 persons today. taking for his topic "The American Navy" The address was a vigorous and eloquent appeal for stronger navy.
 Every Congress. he declared, should appropriate at least s25.0o0, 900 for new warships. The United States was des- tined to become great world-power, and it was fitting that it should have a navy strong enough to maintain 1t in every portion of the globe. This na- ton was the natural protector of weak CT nations, and the principle of the Monroe doctrine and the. blessings of free institutions skeald be extended throughout the worlds-Fp accomplish this great task. the Bmited States should keep strong fleet in the Orient and retain one at home. both of which should be capable of holding their own against any European fleet or combi- nation of European fleets.

fir and two deputies who went out there late in the morning have just re- turned and report that so far as they could learn the mob had not killed any one today. They have been chasing Sallie Sutton. a sister of Belfield Mc- Gray. all day. but had been unable to come up with her. This is the womtn whom the committee turned loose yes-
 terday, being satisfied that she was en- tireIy innocent. She went immediately home and spent the night. It seems, however. that she heard the mob this morning before they got to her home and managed to get out of the way. Many rumors are afioat as to the doing of this mob but they are not reliable.

CHARLEY DAVIS HANGED.
Was Strung Up by DeKalb County
 (Tenn.) Mob.

Smithville, Tenn, Aug. 2.-The first lynching in the annals of Dekaib County took place this morning when Charley Davis, the man who was charged with rape on the person of Miss Kate Hues last Sunday evening, was taken from the Court House by a mob of twenty-five friends and rela- tives of the young lady and strung up about a quarter of a mile from town.
 The assault on Miss Hues was com mitted last Sunday evening, and Mon day morning Davis was taken before the magistrate. He submitted his case and the trial was set for today.
 Court had met and the trial begun, when the defendant introduced wit nesses to defame the girls character. The father had said that he would not join or allow any violent measures unless this action was taken by the defendant. When the witness began to give his testimony the friends and rela tives of the girl arose and made for the prisoner.
 For a time there were wild scenes, and the people were very much eX- cited. The prisoner made an effort to escape by jumping from he second story window of the Court House. Sew eral pistol shots were fired in the con- fusion and Davis was captured before he could escape.
 The Sheriff, one of his deputies. and a. constable who were trying to pre- vent the lynching. together with the father of the defendant. were severely injured in clash with the mob. The wounded officers are Sheriff J. T. Odu. Deputy Bob Odum and Constable Ma ney Pass.
 Milton Hues, the father of the vic tim, Is a prominent grocer in Smith vile, and the mob was composed al- most entirely of his friends and rela- tives There were about twenty five men in the mob-
 After the execution of Davis the mob dispersed, and while excitement is high there is no danger of further trou- hle

PHILLIPS IS OPTIMISTIC
Will Be Able to Resume Business on Corn Exchange in a
 Few Days.

Chicago, Aug. 2.-George H. Phillips will issue a circular tomorrow address, ed to the customers of his firm, an- ,nouncing. that he will be able to re- sume active operations on the Board of Trade by next Tuesday or Wednes- day at the latest, possibly by Monday.
 Phillips asserts that the experts ex- animation of the firms books makes 1t certain that the worst has been told, and that the firm is not tt loser to a larger extent than $300.000.
 His faith in the loyalty of his clients is unshaken and even carries him to the point where he believes that s0 per cent of those who are found by examination of the books to have been overpaid as a result of the May deal, will gladly refund the balance due to him. The total amount of this over- payment is estimated to be a little un- der $25Q,000. The deposed Corn King" says that there Is no legal process by which these people can be made to re- fund the money, but he is confident that nearly all of them will do so as soon as they understand the circum- stances. For his own part, he promises to pay every cent of customers credits the moment he ascertains what they are.

THE ORGAN OF GoMPERs.
Sympathy is Expressed for Striking
 Steel Workers.

Washington Aug. 2.-The American Federationjst. the official monthly mag azine of the American Federation of Labor, in it's issue for August. just made public. speaking of the steel strike. says:
 "The point upon which negotiations finally broke off was that the trust tried to make 1t condition of employ ment that the men in the non-union mills should refrain from joining any union. The Amalgamated Association insisted upon their right to endeavor to organize these non union men into the union and finally to secure for them the wage scale paid in union mills op- erated by the trust" ".
 Cordial sympathy is then expressed for the members of the Amalgamated Association.
 President Gompers of the Fedora ton of Labor left here tonight it IS said, for either Philadelphia or New York.

TOWN BUILT IN A NIGHT
In Lawton Every Form of Gambling Known is Being Run Wide
 linen

Fort Sill. o. T., Aug. "A town of 10.s00 people, to be known as Lawton, has grown up just outside of the Fort Sill limits within a night.
 Following the close of the land lot tery yesterday at Fl Reno, thousands of home seekers who drew blanks started for the three points picked out by the Federal government for town sites in the new country namely An ardko, Hobart and Lawton. ma jority of the people favored Lawton, which is twenty-five miles inland, and tonight thousands are camped In and about the proposed town site awaiting the sale of lots August 6.
 Already Lawton has forty tempo rary business houses, including d gro- cery firm and a newspaper, and three streets have been laid out. A national bank has been projected. Every form of gambling known on the frontier is being run wide open side by side with fake shows of various descriptions. and to add to the picturesque scene, a thousand Comanche Indians have pitched their tents nearby.

THE OUTLOOK DIscoURAaINa.
Complications May Arise in Vene-
 zuela's Troubles.

New York, Aug 2.--Venezuela ?. is again on the eve of revolution and not only Is that unfortunate republic approaching state of civil war. but serious complications will. in all proba- bility, arise between the governments of Venezuela and Colombia. says The Port of Spain. Trinidad. correspondent of The Herald.
 President Castro. while facing the up- rising against his own authority. is also accused of furthering secretly the. .revo- lution against the Colombian governs ment.
 Arms. ammunition and the other ac@ eessories of war have been quietly smuggled into Venezuela through the waterways of the republic and the first engagement is expected to be the signal for uprisings in several widely separated districts
 General Castro is expected to again assert his power by placing a strict censorship on all telegraphic dispatches from that country.
 To add to the situation in Venezuela itself. it Is well known in the adjoining republic of Colombia a very strong feeling of resentment against the Cas- tro government exists on account of what Is considered serious breach of IHteTHdllonai law on the part or Vene- zuela for Its alleged recognition of. if not actual assistance to, the leaders of the revolutionary party of Colombia.
 It is even said that not only has the Venezuelan government permitted the ports to be used by the Colombian rev- olutionists as base for the collection of supplies, but 1t has winked at. if not actually assisted the Colombian revo- lutionists with certain articles of war.
 A report has been current here that General Rafael Uribe- Uribe. from Ans tioquia, republic of Colombia arrived in Caracas several days ago and under the name of Senor Victor Tore and had an interview of about three hours with General Castro. He went to Laguara soon after and proceeded on board the Venezeulan gunboat Augusta. the name of which has been changed to Zumba- dor. He found it well supplied with munitions of war and started inAmedi- ately for Maracaibo. where he met about three trousand troops on the frontier between Venezuela and Co., lombia ready to act at once in the in vasion of Colombia territory.
 Within A hours another dispatch was received here that the Colombian gov ernment had discovered the plan laid down by General UribeLUribe after his consultation with General Castro. and that six thousand Colombian soldiers had been sent out to meet the invad- CTS.

REBELLIoNs ARE NOW ON
The Two Republics Suspicious
 of Each Other.
United States May Send a warship to See That Traffic Across the Isthmus is Not Inter-
 rupted.

Washington. Aug. 2.-The political situation in the neighboring republics of Venezuela and Colombia in South America. and the possibility of war ba- tween these two states, is attracting considerable attention in diploulatic circles. Should war actually result. the authorities in each country would nor only have to deal with their foreign enemies. but also with their domestic foes. as each of the countries now haS what practically amounts to a civil war on it's hands. The officials at the Colombian legation are at . loss to an. derstand the report of President Cas- tros declaration of martial law on the ground that his country is being in- vaded by Colombia The revolution, headed by. Dr. Galviras who crossed the Venezuelan border from Colombia, where he had taken refuge is said to, he in no sense an invasion by Colofn> bians. Dr. Gaiviras belongs to the par ty of Andrade, who was overthrown by Castro and It is stated in diplomatic circles that he is simply heading re. bellion of Venezuelans against the lat ter's authorities. No definite informa- ton has been received here regarding the whereabouts of General Uribe- Uribe, who, in his turn. is heading q movement against the present g0vern- ment in Colombia, from the venezue- Ian side. The last news of his where- abouts was that he was at Maraeaibc and had not yet crossed into Colom- bia. where it was supposed he would attempt to effect juncture with Ma rin. a noted guerilla, who is still car- rying on a vestige of the last revolu- ton in the mountains of the central rapge of the Andes.
 At the Colombian legation here. the movement headed by Urine is not con- sidered at all serious thus far. A re- port received here on July 26 last gave news or projected simultaneous in- vasion of Colombia from venezns1a- Ecuador and Nicaragua. Nothing has been heard of the movement Eince then. -
 A cablegram has been received at the State Department from the United States consul at Colon stating that if the present revolutionary troubles in that section become more aggressive the traffic across the isthmus will sure ly become interrupted.
 The United States government IS bound by a treaty to keep this trafiic open to the world
 No request for a warship to be sent to the scene of the trouble has been sent.
