ADAMS SEATED
BY LEGISLATURE
General Assembly of Color
ado Declares Democrat
Elected Governor
OTHER OFFICERS REPUBLICAN,

-,s------sT, Colo, Jan. 9.-Aiva Adams
was declared by the legislature TO De
the duly elected governor of Colorado.
The returns showed 123,O7S votes for
Adams; Peabody, 113,SO4; plurality for
Adams. 9774.
A cheer greeted the announcement
of the result of the election when made
by Lieutenant Governor Haggott.
The Republican candidates to all the
other state Offices were declared elect
ed. Under the terms of the agree
ment reached by the various factions
in the legislature no notice of contest
can be filed by Governor Peabody until
after the Inauguration of Mr.. Adams,
which is set for 10 O'Clock tomorrow.
II has not yet been definitely decided
by Governor Peabody whether or not
he will make a contest
Throughout the entire struggle for
the governorship the chief aim of both
Democrats and Republicans has been
to secure the appointment Of two new
Judges TO the supreme court. The ques-
ton OF whether Peabody or Adams sat

matter. The Wolcott Republicans were
insistent in their demand that they
be recognized in the appointment Of
the judges, and 1t was finally agreed
that the appointees should be George
w. Bailey, Of Fort Collins, and L. M.
Goddard OF Denver. When the Repub-
lican leaders called on Governor Pea
body to inform him of the conclusions
they had reached and TO tell him that
his only hope of a second term lay
through a contest in the Republican
legislature, they were met by a wrath
full and indignant man. He refused to
accede to their wishes, and for four
hours his friends labored with him. 1t
was only the personal pleadings Of
some of his closest friends that finally
induced him TO agree TO the plan pro-
posed and to send the names of Bailey
and Goddard to the senate for confr-
nation.

Wilmington TO HAVE
INDEPENDENT BALL
President Stirlith Says the
Club Will Withdraw
From Tri-State

Alexander stirlith, president OF the VIII
nineton Baseball Club. announced last
night that Wilmington viii withdraw
from the Tri-state League and play In
dependent ball during the coming season.
owners OF the local club have been con-
sidering this move for some time and the
decision was based on the fact that every
team in the league lost money last sea-
son.
II IS the opinion Of the owners that they
can give the fans better article of sport
by playing independent BAH and at the
same time make out better financially.
Under the conditions Of the league the
local team would have 10 be absent from
home just one-half the time being home
but two weeks in each month.
This arrangement does not suit the fans,
as was demonstrated last year.
The financial conditions are such that It
would be wen nigh impossible for the
local team 20 make any money as when
playing az home it would be compelled
10 give the visiting team one-half OF the
receipts while It would get similar
amount when playing away In addition
II would have 20 give s per cent Of the
gross receipts toward running the league.
BY playing Independent ball they not
only can get the pick of players In this
part Of the country which would be linz
possible Il they remained in the league,
but they will be able 20 book the big
league teams as attractions.
II Is believed this action win meet with
the approval Of the baseball public as
President stirlith says they will have a
strong team.
Tho following dispatch sent out from
York. Pa, is significant at this time;
It is stated authoritatively that the ma
jority OF Penn Parks baseball stars have
sigDed contracts to play outside Of York
noxt year. II Is said that with the ex-
ception of Joe Smith, the popular catcher
and Bill Clay. right fielder every mem

It is probable that he will be tried this time on the grave rob- bery charge in connection with the Lightle insurance conspiracy case at Searcy, which resulted in his conviction at Judsonia last summer. He appealed from that conviction and the case went to Marianna on change of venue.

MOB SEEKS PRISONER.
Negro Who Slashed Little Rock Woman
 Is Surrounded by Mob.

Little Rock, Sept. 30. This afternoon shortly before , o'clock Mrs. Lehman Loeb, while pass ing through her residence on West Third street, heard a noise in the dire ction of the bathroom. She at once repaired to the scene of the noise, and immediately upon opening the door of the bathroom was seized by a burly negro and horribly slashed about the neck and arms with a razor The negro, whose name is Joe Mays, escaped from the house and ran down an alley, where he was intercepted by Deputy Constable Sam Spight, who happened in the neighbor- hood. Spight grabbed the flee ing negro, when Mays again pulled his razor and cut the officer several times on the head and neck, inficting very serious wounds. Mays continued down the alley, and was finally cap- tured by Deputy Constable Geo. Lewis and others.
 Mrs. Loeb was cut twice on the neck, one of the wounds nar- rowly escaping the jugular vein. Physicians say her escape from instant death was mi aculous. Mrs. Loeb is the wife of Lehman Loeb, one of the best known travelling men in this state, and mother of Joseph and Noel Loeb, two well known young attorneys of Little Rock.
 Mays was placed in jail, and Sheriff Kavanaugh has taken every precaution to prevent a lynching tonight. The entire city is aroused over the dastardly crime.
 Mays says another negro was with him, but no trace of his companion could be found. He says robbery was his motive.
 At least one thousand men congregated in and around the county jail at 9 o'clock tonight and demanded that Mays be turned over to them, but Sheriff Kavanaugh assured the crowd that the negro was not in the jail. He declined to say where he was. Up to a late hour the crowd was still surrounding the jail. Sheriff Kavanaugh says he removed Mays from the jail shortly after dark.
