WILLIAMSON w. Va, Sept. 25.-I
Prying open the doors Of the city jail
here Sunday morning, an armed mob
of whitecaps, known as the White Rib
boners, took Moses Lovern. a negro
prisoner. and beat and whipped him un.
& til they inflicted injuries which will re-.
suit in his death. 1t was not generally
known that the outrage had been com.
mitted;until the city awoke yesterday
morning. The regular policeman for
the public square was sick, and no sub
.stitute had been provided. 7--is s7;7--, =.
The public square in which the jail
is located is some distance from the
residence section, and this fact also en-
abled the crowd to perform its work
without detection. Loyern was serving
a 60 days sentence for having assault

ing on street corner four days ago
unconscious from wound in the head.
When he recovered he accused Lovern
of being his assailant. The negro was
arrested, tried before Mayor Pinson
and sentenced.
Mob Breaks Into Jail.
On Thursday night the mob attack
ed the jail, but their victim. hearing
them approach, raised such an outcry
that he frightened the gang. away.
About one o'clock yesterday morning.
while Loyern and Thomas Blackburn.
the only other prisoner in the Jail,
were lying on their cots masked
man appeared at Blackburn's window
and, presenting a Winchester rifle
through the barred window, command
Ted Blackburn to keep silence on pain
sof death.
The mob then pried open the jail
doors with crowbars. Rushing down
Z the corridor to Lovern's cell, they tore
open the door and dragged him. out.
Blackburn was bound and gagged and
with the negro in the same condition,
both men were taken forth and rowed
across the river in flatboat. The
mob then took them up the opposite
bank OF Pond creek about 200 yards,
where the negro's clothing was strip
ped from his back and the torture be-
gan. Blackburn was not molested.
