Fear Negroes May Rise.

With negro population of 1900 it
is regarded as possible that there may
be a negro uprising. 1t is said that
the friends of the wounded men will
certainly attempt vengeance on the
sheriff "When they do they'll mean
business" it is significantly added.
The strongest of the rumors, however,
is that heavily armed body of men
is going to march on the Jail from AL
van, about -four teen miles distant, the
home of Mrs. Carrie Burgess, whom
the negro James Wilson is said to have
attacked, ard Wrest Wilson from the
hands of the sheriff. But most per-
sons point in answer to the lines Of
soldiers and steel. Not while they
are here" is the answer. Wilson, who
was temporarily removed from jail to
get away from the mob, is back in Lis
old cell.

Court to Take q Hand.

AS a result Of conference between
Judge Thompson, Sheriff Whitlock and
States Attorney Kessler, it is likely
that the ''sore-finger brigade" who
got the volleys of buckshOt pOu.ed
down the length of rail used as bat
tering ram by the sherif's force will
be summoned and asked to show
cause why they should not be held
to the grand jury as members of the
lynching mob. Praise is showered on
the sheriff who adopted the idea Of
aiming the gun down the side-fiange
rail so as to disable as many hands as
possible without taking life.
While the troops, the county jail
with it's gaping windows, it's shattered
doors, tho siXty-foot railroad rail and
bottles used as missiles yet on the YER
andas, and above all the spot where
the Negroes body had been fired-dreW
the crowd Of sightseers they were not
the only attractions. There was the
wrecked city Jail, from which the
quivering wretch had been torn.

CASUALTIES OF THE RACE WAR
Praise Showered Upon Sheriff-NegrC
Uprising Is Feared by
Some People.

Danvilie, ILL.,, July 28.-With rour
companies of the Seventh Illinois infan-
try on guard the city is now quiet
after race war in which two men
were killed and seventeen wounded.
The trouble grew out Of an alleged at
tack on a white woman by negro
named James Wilson. 4 mob gathered
for the purpose Of lynching the ac-
cused man and in the attack on the
Jail John d. Mayfield, another cOlored
mal, shot and killed Henry Galter-
man. He was dragged to death ana
his body hacked to bits and burned.
The attack on the Jail to get Wilson
was then resumed and Sheriff Whit
lock fired upon the mob, wounding a
number and causing it to dispersc
about 2 o'clock in the morning.
Troops Arrive ON Scene.
A request was made to the state all
thOrities for troops and at 9 o'clock
in the morning four companies of the
Seventh regiment of Chicago arrived.
They marched at once to the market
house, directly opposite the county jail.
Here. under the command of Lieuten-
ant Colonel J. M. CLASSIFY, headquarters
Were established. Pickets were imme-
diately thrown out and strict guard
maintained over the jail. Threats had
been made to dynamite this because
of the bitterness felt by friends Of the
wounded men against Sheriff Whit
lock AS soon as the arrival Of the
troops became known the phrase was
heard generally throughout the city:
''This ends it: there will be no more

If the News were in need of spe-

its finger on sore spot in our jury

The drop of two cents in the price of
beef at the Kahikinui market is sup
posed to presage further fall. Man

that cattle were never more abundant

on the growth of agricultural interests.

is to diminish sec elton of the mucous,

CAPACITY OF THE LOCOMOTIVE
Comparisons of the Lifetime OF En-
uines Here and in England.

Comparisons of the Lifetime of En-
uines Here and in England.
An expert on railway affairs has re-
Gently said that on English railways
it had been found most economical
that locomotives should 90 through
the shops every two years and that
there engines were built with view
TO longer service than in America. 1t
has only been the las. two years IL Z
American roads generally have taxed
the capacity of the locomotive manu-
facturers to the utmost, replenlshing
their WORKOUT engines and providing
new ones to meet the demands of the
increasing volume of business The
economies of the '90s led many roads
to overtax their motive power, Com
parlng the average life of an engine,
this expert says that one English
company had stated the average life
time of a boiler, on a basis of 100000
miles. to be. passenger engines. nine
years: freight engines, fourteen years;
switching engines, seventeen years
and branch passenger engines, sixteen
years.
He did not agree with this. claim
ing that passenger express engines In
England last twenty five years, freight
twenty-six years, local passenger
twenty-five years, and freight engines
twenty seven years. The mileage Of
express engines from his data varied
from 100000 to 100000 miles, freight
engines from 100000 to 100000 miles.
Comparing this with American expert
ence, he claims that the aim of Amer
leans is to continue the life Of loco
motive fifteen years, getting the ut
most out of it during that time. and
then throwing it on the scrap heap,
if it could not be sold to some smaller
road. The average lifetime of engines
on six American roads, as stated in
this connection, has been demonstrate
ed to be: Express engines, eighteen
years; freight engines, sixteen years;
local passenger nineteen years. lie
finds under this claim that all classes
of American engines make a higher
mileage than the English. the range
being between one to two million
miles. The average lifetime of the
boiler varies slightly in the two coun-
tries. In America engines are taken
to the shops for overhauling on the
average from every years and a quar-
ter to a year and a half, as compared
with two years in England. New
