The lynching party used Senior

Indicate that most of the mon connect
cd with the affair were Annapolitans
and did not come from IGlchart'S sta
ton. where Mrs. Reid lives. As early as
II o'clock it appears. the mob began ia

cccdings. but did not interfere or give
any alarm.
The college authorities strongly de-
nie,i today that any of the students
were implicated in the lynching. Most
of them are at their homes for the hol-
idays.
On its way to the Jail the mob
stopped at the Annapolis gas plant and
tried n enter, but failed to gain admit

Atty Gen. Only Seeks to Annul Such
Contracts and Prevent COndi=
tons Again Recurring.

New York. Dee. 21.-Wcsley NJ Olcr,
president Of the American Ice Co. said
today that the proceedings begun in
the New York state supreme court, do
not demand the dissolution of the Am
erican Ice Co. or the forfeit of its
rights to do business in New York
state. Mr.. Oler said that Attorney
General Mayors proceedings were a
demand that any illegal contracts be
cancelled and that the American Ice
Co. be cnjoincd from curtailing the
production of ice. He declared that
there are no Illegal contracts and that
his company had never curtailcd pro-
duction.
As, he said, the proceedings had been
construed into an effort to dissolve the
American Ice Co, Mr.. Olcr quoted the
following portion of Attorney General
Mayors complaint:
Wherefore. this plaintiff demands
judgment that each and every of the
aforesaid agreements also entered into
by this defendant, as alleged herein
and any other agreements Of similar
nature which may be private or eS-
tablished upon the trial thereof be cam
ccllnd and annulled. as Illegal and
