.HOWLED FOR NEGROES LIFE.

 lapsed and Begged to Be Protected.
 Chicago, Sept 9.-Under a fire of bricks and stones policemen last night rescued a negro murderer from a-lnob of Would-be lynchers. Ten minutes be- fore, John Brinkley, a colored watch man, had shot and killed Charles Nc Carthy, a plasterer, almost in the pres ence of the latter's wife, who stood i'll the doorway holding her baby. Then the negro, backing into the doorway of his aavn quarters, held the crowd Of 600 men and boys at bay until Patrol man Robert Mooney walked up to him and took away his weapon. Then came the second and exciting attempt of the mob to wreak vengeance on the mur- derer. Mooney opened the door and took his prisoner into the office of the tile factory, in which Brinkley was en- ployed, to await the patrol wagon. But as he did so the crowd surged forward once more with cries of 'ELynch him. Lynch him. Get a rope" The police man tried in vain to close the door on the crowd and keep it closed, but even with the assistance of the now terrified murderer it was useless. While Noon ey was thus struggling Brinkley turned and fled from the office by the res" door.
 The mob saw the escape and, headed by Mooney, streamed down an alley in pursuit. The negro ran several blocks before he was finally overtaken. The policeman having been brushed aside Brinkley was now at the mercy of the crowd A teamster jumped down from his wagon and began lash ing the negro across the face with his whip, the victim being held the while by dozen men and boys. It was just when the cries were growing more fu- rious and an attempt was being made to drag the murderer away that a pa- trol wagon arrived with three police men. who. together with Mooney, drew their clubs and fought their way through the struggling mass of men. while bricks and stones rained on them from every side.
 It was only by desperate rush that the four policemen seized the negro and succeeded in dragging him to the pa trol wagon. Then followed by a few parting missiles, the horses were whipped up and the rescued prisoner whiried to the police station None of the rioters were arrested. At the police station Brinkley tainted from terror and when revived begged to be put in .a cell where no mob could get at him. s,.s
