the jailor realized that resistance was
useless. With the keys in their pos.
session the mob opened all the cells,
ordered out the inmates and then
lined them up, in single file, tying
them with ropes.
The prisoners were marched to a
corner lot within two hundred yards
of the Jail and in the heart of the
town, where they were bound to a
fence with their hands tied behind
them. The work had been so quietly
done that the sleeping residents of
the town had not been aroused.
At command by the leader the
mob stepped back a few PAGES, took
deliberate aim and fired volley from
rifles, shotguns and pistols into the
line of prisoners. Every man in front
of the mob fell at the first volley.
Believing it's work had been made
complete the mob quickly dispersed.

EARTH FROM ARLINGTON.
Report on Protest Against Its Use for
Highway Bridge.

Secretary Taft has received a report from
General Mackenzie, chief of engineers, in
regard to the protests made by Thomas II.
Wallace, Joseph Little and others against
the removal of earth from the Arlington
reservation for use in constructing an en-
bankment for the Virginia approach to the
Highway bridge across the Potomac. The
earth in question is being taken from that
section of the reservation used by the
Agricultural Department as an expert
mental station. 1t is explained that this is
done with the full approval of the Secre-
tary of Agriculture and the authorities of
the Arlington reservation.
General Mackenzie calls attention to the
report of Lieut. Col. Smith S. Leach, Corps
of Engineers. on the subject, in which he
states that the earth to be moved will be
taken from one piece of land owned by the
government and deposited upon another
piece of land, also owned by the govern
ment; that the money value of the earth is
not gift to the contractor, and any infor-
nation which the petitioners may have to
that effect is incorrect. and that in the
specifca lions originally published upon
which bids were made for the work, it was
plainly stated that the earth for making
the embankment might be obtained from a
position to be designated by the engineers
in the Arlington military reservation. On
the recommendation of the chief of engi-
neers the Secretary of War will send a
copy OF Colonel Leachs report and of the
specifications TO the petitioners.

BOXER INDEMNITY.
Settlement Delayed by Action of Rus
so-Chinese Bank.

ITEM TSIN, May 23.-The settlement OF
the Boxer indemnity question has been de-
layed by the action of the Russo-Chinese
Bank Russia has chosen to receive her
portion of the indemnity in silver and the
sso-Chinese Bank is endeavoring to OBJ
tain payment in Shanghai at the London
price of silver instead Of the price at
Shanghai, thus avoiding extra charges
If China consents the bank will secure
an advantage amounting to 1 per centum.
The powers have lodged a protest
against the proposition and it is consid-
cred probable that the Russo-Chinese
Bank will not be successful in its nego-
tiations. Na-Tung, the governor of Pc
king, representing the board of revenue,
did, in fact, consent, but his consent was
not ratified.
If China weakly assents the settlement
of the indemnity question will be pro-
longed indefinitely owing to the fact that
similar advantages will be demanded in
other quarters.
