meantime the chief had ordered all the
electric lights in the city TO be turned
out and in the darkness Moray was
hurriedly taken to the county jail. In
a short tin>e the mon discovered that
it had been Cutwitted and formed in
front of the county Jail The entire
police force of the city was called out
in order TO guard the Jail.
At this time Q1:30 p M, the jail is
surrounded and there are rumOrs from
the lower end of the city where the
dead officer resided. that another mob is
gathering with the intention of lynch
ing the negro. The situation is critical.
Shortly before I O'Clock this morning
the mob surrounding the county Jail
began to dispense. awed by the deter
mined attitude of Sheriff Potter, who
stationed a dozen deputies and police
in front Of the jail, armed with revOlv-
ers and rifles. They were instructed
to fire upon the mob should any at
tempt TO enter the jail be made. In
side the building twenty police were
stationed While at the present time
the mob still cIamors for the negro it is
evident that they lack a leader and the
authorities are confident that they will
be able to prevent a lynching.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1903-06-24

It would be hard to secure the cOnvic-
ton Of a lyncher, even If arrests are
made which is doubtful.
During the day thousands Of persons
went in the drilling rain to the scene
of the lynching, many Of them intent
upon securing CHASTITY relics. In this,
however, they met with little success.
as the burning had been so effectual as
to destroy every veStige Of the VIC
TINS body. The only remains were
pieces Of his bones
Delay Explained.
Judge Grub Of the county court to-
day made a public statement, in which
he deplOres the lynching of White and
its consequent reflection upon the good
name Of Delaware. Judge Grub also
explained the action of the court in
refusing to call a special session Of the
grand jury for the Indictment Of Miss
Bishops murderer. He says the trial
would have been attended by such
public clamOr and prejudice that a fair
trial would have been impossible and
the court would have been compelled
to grant the motion Of the prisoner
counsel for a change of venue.

Madden is TO be investigated. 1t is
alleged that I drew the specifications
of a contract for supplying the depar--
ment with carbon paper, and that they
were so framed as to allow of no COM
petition. The article makes Mr.. Wynne
say that he merely approved as a Tou-
tine matter. 1t gives the impression
that the contract is one over which
the third assistant postmaster general
has control and there is a broad infer
ence that you consider the transaction
corrupt.
Absolutely False.

attempts to involve me is absolutely
false. 1 had nothing to do with the
details of the contract; drew no
specifications: I did not initiate; 1 dIu

tract, If there is one. Ny sole interest
and connection with the subject is lin
tied to an expression Of approval OF the
particular carbon paper in question, be
cause it is Ia bor-saving, and in other
ways a great Improvement over the

service, and this approval was nor
