colored men, charged with having
committed an assault upon Mesdames

grand jury that convenes next week.
At night mob of 500 men and boys
gathered about the Jail where they
were confined AMI demanded that they
be turned over by the officers. The
demand was refused. Until midnight
the mob increased in numbers, until
there were at least 1000 men yelling
and battering at the Jail doors with
clubs. Several times the police charg-
ed the mob, but they were unable to
break it up. Just after midnight. arm.
ed with a BAR of railroad iron, a dozen
men commenced battering at the jail
door. A dozen blows shattered it, and
a yell went up from the crowd.
Congressman Smith, who arrived
just at this time, managed to secure
the attention Of George Sanders, hus-
band of one of the women assaulted,
and urged him to go home and let the
law take its course. Sanders listened,
and then started for home. Congress
man Smith mounted the courthouse
steps and urged the members of the
mob to dispense, telling them that San.
ders had already gone home. This had
the desired effect, and inside of half
an hour the courthouse grounds were
deserted.
The militia had been called out, but
the crowd dispersed before they ap.

All of the corpses at this point were
women and children. The fight for
life which must have taken place at
these two points is something that is
simply beyond ability to adequately
describe. A faint idea of it's horror
could be derived from the aspect of
the bodies as tney lay. Women on
top OF these masses of dead had been
overtaken by death as they were
crawling on their hands and knees
over the bodies of those who had died
before. Others lay with arms stretch
ed out in the direction toward which
lay life and safety, holding in their
hands fragments of garments not their
own. They were evidently torn from
the clothing of others whom they had
endeayored to pull down and trample
under foot as they fought for their
own lives.

Owner Talks.
Chicago, Jan. Twill ]. Davis. one
of the owners of the Iroquois theater,
the scene of the horror, was indie
fatigable in his efforts to alleviate suf.
fering and to assist in caring for the
dead. He said:
There was no need, as far as |
know, of single life being lost. There
were over 40 exits to the theater. The
building is fireproof, and if somebody
had not screamed Fire | think that
all, as far as those Killed in the panic
are concerned, could have reached the
streets in safety. And of those who
were suffocated by the gas nearly all
would have been taken out by the time
the explosion occurred if order had
been preserved in making the exit. AS
far as we have learned, everybody on
the first floor except three, escaped,
although some sustained bruises and
other minor injuries. The great loss
of life was in the first and second bal
comics. These combined will seat

WASHINGTON, D. c.. April 25.-The
Virginia members Of Congress generally
expect that adjournment will leave them
ready to depart for home Thursday
night, though not all Of them will get
away from the national capital SO quick
in. It IS thought that adjournment for
the session will be taken Thursday
night. 1t could come much more quickly.
as there are few matters pending re-
quiring any great length OF time to COM
pete. But several senators want to
make political speeches, including sena-
tor Bailey, who is expected to make
notable addition to Democratic cam
paign literature There will also be Sow
eral speeches in the house Of a purely
political nature and they will add to the
length OF the session.
But Senator Martin said tonight that
he expected to be able to leave Washing
ton for his home In Albemarlea on Thurs
day night, which means that he expects
the session to come to an end on that
day. He Will go to his farm for few
days, and will then Join Mrs. Martin at
the home Of her father, Colonel Fcntonl
Day, at Smithfeld. Senator Daniel VIII
go TO Lynchburg as soon as possible at
ter adjournment in order to look after
some important business. The majority
of the members OF the House from Vir-
ginia will get back home u short time
after adjournment, but Messrs. Jones.
Rixey and Hay will be here for several
weeks. as they all have children in the
public schools OF this city, and these
school sessions will not terminate for
some time
ssIt Is said here to-day that It Is the
intention of the management OF tho
Southern Railway to put General Pas
senger Agent Hardwick MT the head Of
the passenger department of the road
as general passenger traffic manager to
succeed the late Colonel w. a. Turk'lt
is understood that the management has
arranged slate including all the
changes which will result from the
death Of Mr.. Turk, and that this Will
be submitted at an carly day to tho
board OF directors. 1t Is saidthat Divi-
sion Passenger Agent Tayloe. of Atlanta,
will succeed Mr.. Hardwlck as general
agent, hut this is not authoritative.
There is hardly doubt, however. that
Mr., Hardwick will become the general
passenger traffic manager.

CHE FOO. April 25.-The report that
the vladivostok squadron is out again and
has bonbarded Gensan on the east coast
OF Korea, sinking Japanese merchant
ship and doing other damage. caused no
little surprise here to-day, and the lne-
dction Is freely made that sea fight,
In which the Russian cruisers are prac-
tically certain to be sunk, will 20 re-
ported very soon.
It is stated here on what seems good
authority that Admiral uriu. who COM
manded the squadron which sank the
Yariag and Korietz at Chemulpo. Is in
command OF a squadron detached from
the Port Arthur blockade to intercept
tho yladvostokers.
Men familiar with the movements Of
the{ Japanese ships express the opinion
that the squadron of Admiral Kanliniula, ,
which bombarded VladiYostok In March,
is still at Hakodate or in that neigh
borhood.
If this Is true, and the best opinion
here Is that 1t is, then the Vladivostok
squadron is In a trap. from which ,lt can
not possibly escape except by fighting
and pesting a much superior force, OF
Japanese, as Admiral Kamimura will, 1t
is expected, get between the Russians and
their base at Vladivostok, thus compell-
Ing them6to fight either his squadron
or that OF uriu. 5E4{
