{. Leslie. who was shot dead in the
Kansas city Southern Railway yards
while endeaNoriug TO arrest several
negroes suspected OF theft. Officer
Leslie had ordered several negroes
who had taken refuge in box car TO
surrender. and when they failed to
do so he fired several shots at the car.
During the shooting a negro slipped
from the car and. coming up behind
the officer. shot him through the head.
The negro then fed, and within a
short time posses were after him. He
was soon arrested ana placed in Jail.
Every effort was made to prevent
the entrance of the mob. but without
avail. and within 10 minutes the men
mad gained entrance To the Jail and
secured the trembling negro. He was
dragged two blocks and a rope was
fastened around his neck and after
the rope had been thrown over the
cross bar OF telegraph pole a score
or men attempted To pull the negro
from the ground As many more
seized the negro and pulled TO prevent
him being hanged. For some minutes
II vas vcritable tug OF war. but re-
Inducements on the free end OF the
rope proved the stronger. and the ne.
gro despite his protestations OF limo
cence. was finally swung into the air
and strangled TO death. while shouts
Of satisfaction went up from the mob.
The lynching OF the negro served
only temporarily to satisfy the indig
nation of the mob and late last night
hundreds of men again assembled and
rioted through the negro section OF
the city. burning houses. stoning ne
groes and finally driving every negro
from the confines OF Joplin. When
the houses were fired by the mob the
hremen responded promptly. but ow
ing 10 interference many houses were
burned to the ground
All the officers OF the city. township
and county were called out. but the
mob swept them aside and proceeded
with the rioting.
Mayor Trigg ran from corner to cor
ner and. mounting boxes. made earn
est appeals to the mob TO cease but
beyond cheering the mayor vocifer
ously the mob swept on and the dep
relations continued.
