tective in Tyrone Making Attempt to
Locate Guilty Party.

Tyrone, Sept. PA dastardly,
though abortive attempt was made to
ditch train No. 5, west bound, on the
Burlington at 2:30 Sunday morning In
the yards at this place. The parties
used stick of elm cord wood, which
was placed upon the rails in such
manner as to catch in the pilot of the
approaching train. Fortunately the
stick proved very brittle and when it
ran into the ground was broken off by
the impact. Should the attempt have
proven successful, the loss Of life must
have been great, as this is one of the
Burlington's fast night service trains
and passes this place at very high
rate Of speed. Detective Jas. Harrison
of the company's secret service force
was in the village Sunday looking the
matter up.
An attempt will be made to locate
the guilty parties and 1t will doubtless
go hard with them if they are found.

OF SITUATION
ALL SALOONS CLOSED
Body Of coIored Man Found Hanging
in Woods Near suburb-Was serv-
ing Sentence In Jail-Taken Out
Shortly After Midnight.

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 24.-The city is
quiet. Seventeen companies Of the
state militia are in complete control Of
the situation. All saloons are closed
and business has assumed normal con-
ditions. No further outbreaks are an
ticipated.
The body Of Zeb Long, a negro, was
found hanging in the woods early to-
day, near East Point, suburb of At
lanta. Long was locked in the East
Point Jail, charged with disorderly con-
duct. The jail was broken into short
ly after midnight, and Long taken to
his doom.
While one more negro was killed
and another fatally beaten yesterday
afternoon, Atlanta passed fairly quiet
Sunday after the slaughter of the night
in which not less than dozen negroes
and one white man were slain and
more than hundred negroes wound
ed.
1t probably will not be known for
days how many negroes were killed
by the mobs that scattered death dur
ing the night. The corpses left in the
streets we're carried away by relatives
of the victims and Sunday were snug
gled out of the city and buried.
The negro killed Yesterday was
lynched by a mob on Marietta street.
He was one Of two men arrested on
suspicion of being concerned in one of
Saturdays assaults. The other man,
who had been partly identified by the
victim of the assault, escaped from
the officers on the way to the jail. The
officers continued with their remain
ing prisoner.

the cry that the officers had the WON

crowd surrounded the officers, took the
negro, and riddled him. AS the negro
was shot it is claimed that he asserted
his innocence. The tragedy was wit
messed by many people, among them
some children who were playing in
the street.
This was the second outbreak in
Marietta street. Early in the day 9
negro appeared there carrying rifle
In five minutes the negro was sur
! rounded by crowd of white men, who
seized the gun and used 1t to club the
negro so that he was sent to the nos
pital Fifty yards away was grouped
patrol of twenty state guardsmen
who looked on without attempting te
interfere.
Negroes Stone Street Cars.
At 10 o'clock conductors and motor
men on the Magnolia street car line
refused to take their cars out again
One car, which came in about $3.50
M. had several broken windows, where
negroes in the outskirts of town stoned
it. This line runs through section
thickly populated by negroes.
Fear of retaliation by the negroes
however, is not considered probable
The entire colored population Of the
city is in terror A black face was
rarity in the streets today. Through
out the day hundreds of negroes have
been fleeing the city. BY train ane
wagon and on foot they have hurried
from the city, fearing the possibility o
trouble in the immediate future.
