LYNCHERs HOT AT HIS HEELS,
Arthur Warren Caught and Roughly Handled
but Rescued by the Police.
(By the Associated Press,)

Chicago, Oct 12.-Arthur Warren, a
young man living in the suburb of Ber-
wyn, twelve miles from Chicago, had a
narrow escape from lynching tonight, and
but for the efforts of two policemen it is
possible that he would have been hanged
to telegraph pole.
Warren was accused of assaulting an
eight-year- old girl. Acts of this kind
have occurred several times at Berwyn
within the last fortnight, and the crowd
that pursued Warren was highly exasper-
ated. He led them a chase of about
mile before he was caught and during the
run the excitement of the crowd had IN
creased.
When Warren was captured he was
handled very roughly and a proposition
to lynch him met with approval Two
policemen managed to get him away from
the crowd, dragged him into a grocery
store, where they barred the door until
assistance arrived from the police station.
Warren, who required surgical attendance.
was finally placed in cell. although the
crowd followed him all the way to the
station trying to get at him.

there is hope of diplomatic settlement
of the questions at issue.
The representatives of this government
in the capitals of Russia, Japan and
China have not advised the State De
partment regarding recent developments
and rumors of war over Manchuria. As
has been often pointed out the United
States has no cause of protest because
Russia has failed to keep her pledges
that she would evacuate Manchuria on
October Sth. The interest of the United
States in Manchuria is covered by TIE
recent treaty between China and this
country. If Manchuria becomes annexed
to Russia or continues under Russian
control the United States will insist that
the provisions of the treaty be carried
cut, especially as Russia assented to its
provisions previous to its being signed.
