Dssec these questions may forced back again and
again to the same conclusion:
RELIGIOUS TRAINING IN THE FAMILY is Es-

CREASE.

indely in the the insurance crimes and the group

MEMPHIS, Nov. 29.-Fighting desperately
for their honor and their lives, Mrs. John
Simms Of Hot Springs, Ark, and her friend,

but not 80 seriously as Mrs. Simms.
The entrance Of Mr.. Simms, who came in
very late, frightened the brutes away, but
the husband was so long restoring the young
woman 20 consciousness that not until early
this morning was he able TO inform the
authorities of the assault. At once every
police and county officer available was put
on the trail, and the capture Of one negro is
reported early tonight.
Beyond the fac hat the man was traced
by b~loodhounds and filed q very accurate

of citizens who followed the officers having
resolved themeelves into jury, judges and
executioners. The other will also be lynched

sPENCER'S WORK FOR THE CITY.
He Served with Zeal on the Rapid Transit
Commission for Two Years.


Commission for Two Years.
Samuel Spencer was a member Of the old
Rapid Transit Commission and he served
the city from 1891 to 1893. The problem
then was not so much an underground
system Of transportation but the extension
Of the elevated railway system. Among
Mr.. Spenoer's colleagues at the time was
John II. Starin, who still has a seat in the
Rapid Transit Board.
The matter OF making terms with the
Manhattan Railway Company was one that
called forth much discussion in the board,
and Mr.. Spencer took an opposite VIE
from that held by Mr.. Starin. An agree
ment as to terms was finally reached. and
none Of the officials and others interested
In the subject was afterward warmer IN
bis praise of the services rendered by Mr..
Spencer than Mr.. Starin.
When Mr.. Spencer first resigned in 1893
Mayor Gilroy ~reappointed him, and he
agreed to serve until the elevated railroad
extension question was decided. His pri-
vate bushes rs was pressing him closely and
he realized that he could not do justice to
II n give all the time nece ssary to his
duties as a public official.
On June %, 1893, Mr.. Spencer sent a
second letter OF resignation to Mayor Gil
roy, in which be said:
while l have been pleased to devote
the Necessary labor and time to assist in
this result the Elevated railroad extension
agreement private affairs now demand
my attention to sue a degree that it will
be impossible for me to continue to dis
charge the duties OF a public Office which
consume 40 much time and attention"
The Mayor then had no other course
than to accept the resignation. He sent
Mr.. Spencer a letter in which he said:
Il take pleasure in assuring you Of my
appreciation OF the courtesy, capacity and
energy with which you nave discharged
the duties Of a member OF the commission y

grandson and a great-great-grandson Of
Gen. Philip Schuyler Of Revolutionary days.
His father was George Lee Schuyler, one
OF the owners of the yacht America, which
won. the famous cup. George Lee Schuyler
married in turn two sisters, g~randdaughters
Of Alexander Hamilton, whose wife was
herself a daughter of the Gen. Philip Schuy-
Ter Of the Revolution.
Philip Schuyler was born in this city
In 1880 and was educated at the Harvard
Scientific School and at the University Of
Berlin. He entered the United States
Regular Army on May IA, 1851, as a First
Lieutenant in the Fourteenth Infantry;
he served throughout the war and resigned
on June 30, 1855, having been brevetted a
Brigadier-G General. He was not in active
business, living largely the life of a country
gentleman. He was long identified, how
ever, with the New York Life Insurance
and Trust Company of which he was a
trustee at the time of his death.
Gen. Schuyler was greatly interested in
Yachting and one of the best known and
Oldest members Of the New York Yacht

Gen. Schuyler's stepmother, who was Mary
NJ. Hamilton, placed in two groups OF
prominent women of the country.
Mrs. Schuyler had taken a prominent
part in founding many women's societies.
Gen. Schuyler objected to having the statue
made and carried on a legal battle, which he
finally won By a decision of the Court Of
Appeals it was decided that over his OBJ
lection the women Of the memorial fund
had not the right TO include a statue Of Mrs.
Schuyler in the group.
Gen. Schuyler married Mrs. Harriet Lang
don, who was n of the beautiful Lowndes
sisters of Maryland. Gen. and Mrs. Schuy-
Ter returned two months ago from Europe,
where they had spent the spring and sum
mer.

board Of governors OF the Union Club, sent
out a call yesterday for a meeting Of the
board this afternoon to take action on the

down stairs and into the street. She saw
the man running toward Franklin avenue.

yesterday afternoon that Mr.. Spencer's
body was expected to reach Washington
last evening and be brought on here to-day.
General Eastern Passenger Agent
Thweatt Of the Southern, whose Offices

Offices. The earlier reports he got had it
that President Spenoer's body had been
completely burned, but Mr.. Thweatt was
relieved later, after talking with Washington
over the telephone, to hear that this was
not so.
Mr.. Spencer was so democratic in his
ways and 40 popular that the employees
here seemed 10 take IL almost as a personal
loss. our advicss indicate" said Mr..
Thweatt, that the accident was entirely
due to an operator who let the second train
into his block before il was cleared. This
part Of our road is as safe as any on the
line. The block stations are nea together
and everything has been done to insure
the safety Of passengers. But you can't
run a railroad without having to depend
upon human beings. 1t is another case
of a man apparently failing in his duty"
