vestigation of the assassination of ].
L. Marcum, the last victim of the Har-

divided as to the probability of In

assassin as result of the work of the
special grand jury. which will be I'm
panelled today. Curtis Jett, who is
under arrest at Winchester. charged
with the crime. will not ask for
change of venue il indicted and re-
turned to Jackson. Doubt is ex-
pressed by many of the possibility of
witnesses mastering up courage to tell
the jury all they know. Common be-
lief is that fear of assassination after
the troops are withdrawn may seal
the lips of those who may know about
the killing of Marcum.

Philadelphia Has s1,ooo,ooo Fire.

Philadelphia, May 25.-A fire that is
estimated TO have caused loss OF
upwards OF sl.o00,000 occurred last
evening in the building of the Front
Street Warehousing company. The
building was three stories high on
Front street and five in the rear and
had two sub-cellars. Merchandise of
a general character was stored in the
place. There were in the building,
among other things. 1900 rolls of car
pet, 500 barrels of molasses, light and
heavy machinery of various descrip-
tions, carload of,wines and other liq-
uors and carload of matches. The
character of the goods in the building
made 1t an easy prey to the flames
and the whole structure was soon
ablaze. Everything in the building
was destroyed either by fire or water.
The contents of tho building were
owned by many firms and individuals.
Three firemen were injured. two OF
them sustaining fractured shoulder
blades.

GoRkl on JEWISH MASSACRE.
Russian Writer Declares Educated
People Instiqated Mob.


Berlin, May 23.-Maxim Cork, the
Russian novelist, recently wrote an ar
ticle on the Kishineff massacre for q
Mini NovSorod newspaper, but the
censor refused to allow its publication.
Cork then sent the article to the st.
petersburg correspondent of the
Frankfort Kleine Presse, which prints
it today. The article, in part, is as
follows:
Cultivated society is not less guilty
of the disgrace and horrible deed corn-
mitted at Kishineff than the horrible
murderers and rayishers. Its guilt
consisted not merely that they did not
protect the victims, but they rejoioed
over the murders. 1t consists chiefly
IN permitting themselves for long
years to be corrupted by man-haters
and persons who have long enjoyed
the disgusting glory of being the
lackeys of power. 1t is now the duty
of Russian society that is not wholly
ruined by these bandits to prove that
1t is not identified with these instigst.
ors of pillage and murder. Russian
society must clear its conscience CT
part of the shame and disgrace by
helping the orphaned and desolated
Jews"

Women and Children Are Caught.
Lawrenceburg, Ind, May 25.-There
is intense agitation in this city over
the murder OF Rosa Kaiser and the
murderous assault on her father last
Friday night. The farmers gathered
here, at Guilford, at Manchester and
other towns in this county and openly
threatened lynching II the guilty per-
son could be Identified Sheriff Abbey
has strong guard of deputies at the
Jail, where Louis Everson, known as
"Black Ponto," is held on suspicion.
There is no doubt that this negro
would have been lynched but for the
announcement that Albert Darling.
who came here from Manchester, did
not identify him as the negro who
had called at the home of Mrs. Mary
Griffin shortly after the assault of the
Kaisers.
While the crowds were coming to
town dispatch was received that
another crime had been committed in
the county and this diverted attention
from the Jail Sheriff Abbey was
called to Weisburg, where an unknown
negro, supposed to belong to the same
railroad construction gang, had as
saulted two little daughters of George
Smith, a farmer. The sheriff was
joined by many farmers in this county
with bloodhounds. After hard chase
it was found that the negro had
boarded a freight train at Sulman
station. and when kilograms were sent
after the train. the negro could not
be found. 1t is supposed he jumped
off the train possibly before it reached
the next station, but he was on the
cars long enough for the hounds to
lose the trail
