The remedy for lynching must be the
elimination Of the crime of rape and this
he maintained could be done only by the
separation Of the two races in the United
States.
1.-The problem Of the hour" said he,
'is not to prevent lynching In the south,
but the larger question: How shall we
destroy the crime which always has and
always will provoke lynching? The mob
answers it with the rope, the bullet and
sometimes, God save us, with the torch.
And the mob is practical; its theory is
effective to a large degree; the mob is
to- day the sternest, the strongest and the
most effective restraint that the age holds
for the control of rape
The lyncher does not exterminate the
rapist Mr.. Graves contended, but he holds
him nightly in check. AS sheer, cold,
patent fact, he said, the mob stands to-
day as the most potential bulwark be-
tween the woman of the south and such q
carnival of crime as would infuriate the
world and precipitate the annihlation Of
the negro race. The masses OF the negro,
he held are not afraid of death coming in
regular way. They love display and the
spectacular elements of a trial and execu-
ton appeal to their imagination.

by commissioning conductors, baggage
masters or other trainnen, wherever de-
sired, as employees Of the United States
postal service and empowering them to
handle the desired class of mails.
Postmaster General Payne. and Second
Assistant Postmaster General Shallenber-
ger have had the matter under considera-
ton for months. The agitation, however,
which really led to the adoption Of the
new policy has been growing for several
years, and, like so many other important
steps adopted by the postoffice of late
years, Is a result of the tremendous
growth of the rural free delivery service.
The policy adopted by the government
is really an ampliication of system
which has been in use for some time by
the publishers of papers who serve sub
scribers on rural free delivery routes
reached by mail train facilities necessarily
| limited. It has been the system of these
publishers to entrust bundles of papers
to trainmen on trains which did not carry
| the United States mails, with instructions
| to throw them off at certain points, This
| system, however, has been very unsatis-
| factory.
| Now the government will make itself
| responsible for the proper carriage and
delivery of these newspapers and to this
end will commission and pay a salary to
| trainmen over and above the compensa-
ton received by them for their regular
| work.

and the reductions granted amounted to
only 500, 900. Last year there were III

New York Sun Special Service.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 1.-THE legislature
of Georgia has desided to investigate the
whipping of Marie Decrist. a white
woman at the state prison farm. In speak
ing of the resolution for an investigation,
several legislators said the whipping was
as bad as any cruelty which Russia Is
accused of intlcting on her prisoners.
The Investigation promises to result in
startling disclosures. Superintendent Fos-
ter. who tried to prevent the whipping,
has resigned stating that he would not
remain an officer of a system which Gre
ates a hell for unfortunates. Later dis
closures show that the prisoner was dis
robed and tied down just as negro male
convicts. are treated and then knouted.
She was then manicled to negro woman
and sent to the field, where she tainted

Rome, Aug. 11.-Just a week has
elapsed since the election Of Plus x, and
he has been already overcome by the
unaccustomed strain Of his pontiflcal
duties. This morning he tainted while

be due to heart weakness aggravated by
fatigue. 1t constitutes the first victory
of his encourage which insisted that he
should take the change from his previous
life less strenuously. Even tho he dis

to concede audiences to all Corners and
to render himself less accessible. DR..
Lapponi supported this view and rec

rest. The doctor has ordered all audi
ences postponed. The pope, however,
cannot understand the necessity Of spar
ing himself and said to Dr. Lapponi: Il

It was explained to him that Leo when
elected began by taking a fortnights
perfect rest and thereafter gradually
trained himself to his new duties. More

need exercise in the fresh air, which an
ordinary healthy man does.

At noon Pope Plus was reported to be
almost restored to his normal condition
but was keeping his room as he feels oc-
casionally a slight palpitation of the
heart.
The pope ardently wished to receive
to-day the Austrian ambassador, who was
to present his credentials, but he was
persuaded to renounce his intention not
only in this case but with regard to all
the audiences which were fixed for to-
