SOUTHERN MOB
STORMS A JAIL
TAKE NEGRO FROM CUSTODY
OF SHERIFF.
THEIR VICTIM is LYNcHED
Hanged to Bridge and Body Riddled
with Bullets-Had Attacked
White Woman Near
Newbern, N. C.

Newbern, N. c., Aug. 28.-John Moore,
a negro, 20 years old, was taken from
Craven county Jail, in this city, early
Sunday morning and lynched by mob
Of 100 masked men armed with rifles
and revolvers With his hands tied
behind him, the negro was led out about
a third of mile from the jail to the
draw of Neuse river bridge, hanged to
one of it's braces and his body riddled
with bullets. The mob attacked the
Jail between one and two o'clock Sun
day morning. Entrance to the Jail was
affected by forcing the jailor to sur
render the keys. AS soon as the attack
was discovered the naval reserves were
called out to attempt to prevent the
lynching. Crowds rushed to the bridge
Sheriff J. w. Biddle was quickly on the
scene, pleading that Moore be left to the
law, but his efforts were unavailing
and the mob carried out it's plans.
Moore entered the country store of
George Eubanks. at Clarks, seven miles
from Newbern, last Friday, when the
proprietors wife was the only one in
The negro attempted robbery, and
struck Mrs Eubanks on the head with
a meat ak, fracturing bones and infict-
ing injuries which, if they do not
prove fatal, will at least cause not only
Disagreement but lifelong suffering
Mrs. Eubank screamed, and people came
to her rescue. The negro fled, but was
captured in a swamp after chase of a
few miles, and was placed in jail

ECHO OF THE DEBS STRIKE
CHICAGO MUST SUFFER FOR
TROUBLE OF 1894.
Jury Says City Must Pay Panhandle
Railway 100000 for
Burned Cars.

Chicago, Aug. 2S.-Chicago has reaped
the harvest of the whirlwind of the
Debs A. r. U. strike of 1894. A jury in
Judge Frost's court in Wheaton brought
in verdict of 100000 against the city
in favor of the Panhandle railroad.
The amount represents, in the opinion
of the jurymen, the damage done the
road by the burning of its freight cars
in the strike riots. The railroad sued
$4,000 was represented by merchandise
in transit and the city should not be held
responsible for this. But they held that
the city could not escape financial liza
bility for the failure of the authorities
to curb the mobs and prevent the burn
ing of the cars.
The Panhandle was not the only
railroad to lose by fires in the Debs'
strike. After the struggle, started at
Pullman by Debs' newly organized
American Railway union, was few
days old, it began to grow too unwieldy
for it's leader His only policy, as he
saw the railroads resisting successfully,
and his own followers falling away. was
to extend the strike. AS the strike ex-
tended it became more vicious. When
the railroads had succeeded in moving
trains, rioting began in the freight
yards. This bred new disorder and the
torch came into use. Some one set fire
to few freight cars, and they were de-
stroyed. Whole freight yards were SCI
ablaZe within week.

JEWS MASSACRED.
Which Cossacks Kill
Thirty Eight.

London, Aug. 2S.-Details of the
massacre of Jews at Bialistok on Au-
gust II have just reached London in
mail advices. Thirty-eight were killed
and 1877 wounded by soldiers, who raid
ed the Jewish quarters to take revenge
for bomb outrage in which three SOL
diers were killed. The massacre was
as appalling as the one at Klsheneff
two years ago, although at Bialistok
the populace stood by and watched the
soldiers do the killing, while at Kishe-
neff the soldiers were the spectators.
The soldiers raised the cry of Death
to the Jews" and a general move was
made for the Jewish quarter of the
city. Several vodka shops were raid
ed and the soldiers, infamed with
liquor, marched through the streets,
shooting at Jewish men, women and
children Unfortunately. In nearly
every case the dead we're slashed with
hayonets as they lay in the streets. 1t
is admitted that the soldiers were
drunk; but so far no steps have been
taken to punish them

Money for Schools.

Madison.-State Superintendent G. p.
Cary has completed the work of appor-
tioning the annual state aid to the
graded schools of the state The appor-
tionment for this aid is now $4,000 a
year, having been increased $40, 900 by
the last legislature. The schools are
divided into two classes, those having
three or more departments being in the
first class and those having two de-
partments in the second. The schools
in the first class receive $500 and those
in the second class 500. In the first
class there are 144 and in the second
203 schools, a considerable increase
since the original law was passed in
1901. The schools are not only re-
quired to have a certain number of de-
partments, but are also required to
have teachers of certain prescribed
qualifications. Six schools applying for
aid were turned down TINS year because
they did not meet the requirements of
the law. There is a balance of over
$4,000 remaining from the $4,000 ap-
priated for these schools.

HEALTH OFFICERS
ARE UNDER FIRE
SENSATIONAL CHARGES MADE
AT NEW ORLEANS.
MAY BE GRAND JURY CASE
It Is Declared They Suppressed Tor
Two Months knowledge of
Presence of Fever
in City.

New Orleans, Aug. 2S.-The biggest
sensation OF the yellow fever epidemic
here was sprung Saturday when all
the prominent people of the state re-
ceived a circular letter from an un-
known source, which is expected TO
bring on Immediately an investigation
by the grand jury as to how the fever
was allowed to exist in New Orleans
for two months before any steps were
taken to check it or any public an
nouncement made of its presence. In
an address last night, DR.. Joseph Holt,
known all over the world as the yell
low fever expert and as the man who
drafted and enforced the quarantine
regulations which kept the pest out OF
New Orleans for 20 years, practically
charged that the city and state health
officers were cognizant of the presence
of the fever here and did everything
possible to suppress the fact.
The yellow fever record up to six p.
m. Sunday is as follows: New cases,
81; total, LAB; deaths on Sunday, 10;
total deaths, 255; cases under treat
ment, 119.
Guarantees Modified.
New Orleans, Aug. 28.-The state
board of health is receiving advices
from some points in the state of modi
fed guarantees, resulting from it's
own campaign of education and the
fact that centers of infection outside
Of New Orleans are here and there dis
appearing. The fact that none except
the first imported cases have appeared
at Shreveport or Bunkie and that the
Bon Ami infection in Calcasieu is
likely to be wiped out is making an
impression on skeptics who at the be-
ginning placed little faith in the mos
quito theory. At all three of these
points the fever was scientifically
treated, and apparently successfully.
The result is shown in the fact that
Natchitoches and other points are
raising their guarantees or modify
ing them.
Ban on Holy Water.
For some weeks to come there will
be no more holy water in the Roman
Catholic churches of the city. DR..
Juan Guiteras paid visit to the ia
nous old st. Louis cathedral and found
that the marble bowls which hold the
holy water were veritable breeding
places for the stegomyia fasciata. The
result of Dr. Guiteras' Investigations
was at once reported to DR.. White and
as a result the holy water will either
be renewed daily or there will be none
in the churches of the city.
Jackson Guarantees Memphis.
Jackson, Miss, Aug. 28.-The city
of Jackson has declared a quarantine
against Memphis, Tenn, basing the
action on a marine hospital report of
a woman developing case of yellow
fever in New Orleans on the second
day after reaching that city from
Memphis.
Not Likely to Spread.
Pensacola, Fla. Aug. 28.-Dr. ]. Y.
Porter, state health officer and assist
ant surgeon of the marine hospital
service, who was here Sunday, expressed
the opinion that yellow fever is not like
ly to spread in New Orleans as it has in
the past but he does not believe the
disease will be entirely stamped out be-
fore cold weather

st. Petersburg, Aug. 28.-The refusal
of the peasants in the village of In

sky the proportion of the crop to

Cossacks. The Cossacks fired on the
peasants, killing and wounding, ac-
cording to an official account, 70. Peas
ants from the mountains came to the
assistance of the villagers, resulting in
fresh conflicts, in which one Cossack

ENGLISH Villages.

This indictment of the English vii
lage as it exists to-day appeared in a
prominent London newspaper: The
English village is remarkable for its
imperfect drainage, contaminated
wells and bad lighting, the impractical
teaching of its children, the vice con-
nected with its public houses and the
more or less entire absence OF cottage
hospital, reading rooms, clubs, both
or washhouse, flower show, telephone,
oftentimes telegraph, and all that
makes life enjoyable and healthy"
