One Negro Burned and Another DOOM
ed to Galiows in Louisiana.
A mob of 500 men shot to death
Wiltz Page, a negro, aged 80 years,
and afterwards burned the body near
the town Of Bienville, In BienviIe
parish, Louisiana, Saturday AFTERNOON.
The negro was captured during Fri
day night, suspected Of being the one
who attempted a criminal assault on
Sarah Cant, the 11year-old school
girl, Friday afternoon.
Page was identified by the girl, and
when a deputy sheriff started to jail
with him, a mob overpowered the Off
Ger and took the negro. He was takea
to the scene of his crime, where hs
made a full confession. The mob then
stood him up against tree and shot
him to death, riddling his body with
bullets. More than 500 shots were
fred. After the shooting, fire was
kindled around the body Of the negro,
md the mob remained until it had
been cremated.
A military company ordered by Gov
ernor Blanchard from Homer, La,
reached the scene Of the lynehing.
When they arrived, the mob had dis
persed, and quiet was restored.
Charles Coleman, the negro charged
with having assaulted and murdered
Miss Margaret Lear, was convicteS IN
court at Shreveport Saturday, after a
trial lasting three hours. Governor
Blanchard, who attended the trisl,
signed the death sentence. Thursday
between the hours Of a. m. aad 2
D. m. was fixed as the time Of eZeeu-
ton.
A Jury wes secured In the ease With.
In comparatively short time.
The evidence introduced was concla-
sive, and a verdict was returned three
minutes after the case was given to
the jury, and Judge T. ]. Bell, who
presided, Immediately passed the
death sentence on the negro.
-Four military companies were on
guard about the court house during
the trial, and every person who at
tended was searched as he approach
ed the building. There was no DEM
onstration, and, while feeling is still
intense, 1t is believed the law win
be allowed to take it's course.
The military will remain until az
ter the execution.

DAGOES MOB VANDERBILT
millionaire American Ran Over Boy
=. While cpeedirg Auto in Italian.
Town ard is Attacked Ficrce!y.

4 dispatch from Florence, Italy,
saws. ". K. Vanderbilt is detained 1T
Point Edera, on the road to Pisa,
having had an automobile accident
in the street by which boy was
injured. The boy was not seriously
hurt. The incident involved the de-
tention both of Mr.. and Mrs. W. K.
vanderbilt, Jr., and their chauffeur,
and turns cut to have been much more
serious than at first reported.
Nj. Vanderbilt and his chauffeur
were mobbed; and the former drew
a revolver and both Mr.. Vanderbilt
and the chauffeur were arrested and
taken to the police station. Mrs. Van
derbilt was escorted to hotel.
In the midst Of the excitement it
was reported that the child was dead
and the townspecple became so en-
ragged that they attacked the chauf-
feur.. .
In fact, matters reached very crit
ical stage, and Mr.. Vanderbilt, be-
nevfng that the lives Of the party
were in danger, drew revolver.
Before he could. use the. weapon,
however, several men Jumped iato
the automobile, disarmed Mr.. Wander
Dilt and kicked and cuffed him.
Eventually an officer Of gendarmes
With reirforcements arrived on the
scene and after the townspeople hal
somewhat Gained down, succeeded IN
rescuing the autoists, who were taken
to the police station, followed by

was time to put stop to such incl
dents, involving the loss of life, which

bers.

HOUSE SNUBS GEORGE.
Motion to Adjourn Ia Honor Of the
Birthday Of Father of His C:un-
try is Voted Down.

The house Of representatives re-
fused to adjourn in celebration or
Washingtors birthday and its mem
bers participated in a general field
day of debate on the army appropri-
alton bill.
The speeches took a wide range.
First, the system Of promoting and
retiring army officers was attacked
by MIR. Prince of Illinois, who ehcted
many interjected comments from
members in disapproval OF the meth
ods for which he said the president
and senate were responsible, =, and
which, he pointed out, has resulted
in retired list, costing yearly s2,700,-
600, consisting OF officers who, he said,
were holding the flag with one hand
while the other was in the treasury
for money that had never been earned.
An exhaustive discussion Of ship
subsidy was made by Mr.. Gilbert Of
Kentucky, who declared the American
merchant marine is now the finest Of
any nation, and included the 136 Nor
gan ships under the British and Ger
man flags. In case Of war, he said,
their only protection would be the
United States, wherein belonged theE
owners and the capital invested.
Mr.. Clark Of Florida made
speech against the house organization
and was replied to by MI. Grosve-S
nor of Ohio. Mr.. Clark dwelt at length
on the merits of his bill, which pro-
nibits internal revenue officers from
receiving special taxes and granting
iauor licenses in prohibition or lo-
cal option sections.
Illustrating the necessity OF the
measure, he said that in prohibition
Maine in 1904, $40 federal liquor d
censes were issued, in 1905, 3,024
were issued in Kansas, also a prohi-..
hition state, and that in Connecticut,
not prohibition, in 1865, 3,2ss federal
uCS1SSS "SIe lSSoSo, "AtAAS Wv SsrHseS~
licenses numbered 2,191.
Mr.. Clack's criticism Of the rules
was the subject Of reply by Grosvenor.
who cited the record to show that
there had been moro debate so FAR this
session of congress than ever besora,
and contrasted it with session OK
congress controlled by the democrats,
when, he POINTED out, a bill repeal
ing the resumption act and making
paper money equal to gold; BILL foe
the free coinage OF silver and an ap,s
propriation act carrying $1S,009000s
were all passed without single word
of debate.
Mr.. Clark interrupted to state that
ten days Of debate at the present seS-
sion was on a bill unanimously re-.
porte5 and favored by both poiticaa
parties, and OF which no debate WaS
necessary.

DEMAND REFORMS.
Armstrong Insurance Com
mittee Makes Its Report.
S A LENGTHY DOCUMENT
Most Important Recommendation is
Actual Control of Companies by
Policy HoIders-Department
Censured.

The comnitsee appointed at the
last session Of the New York legis-
lature to Investigate life insurance
made it's report Thursday. The re-
port is extremely voluminous, being
in the form of printed pamphlet. It
embraces a long review OF the testi-
mony taken by the committee and
its recommendations and conclusions
as to remedial legislation.
In addition there is chapter de-
voted to the state insurance depart
ment, in which the committee declares
that it would seem that the superin-
tendent of the department has had am
pie power to ascertain the transactions
of insurance companies, but that the
supervision by the department has not
proved a sufficient protection against
extravaganza and NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
Instances are given of reports made
on the affairs of the Mutual Life In
surance Company, the New York Life
Insurance Company and the Equitable
Life Assurance Society, in which it
was brought out to show the condi-
tions developed in the testimony given
before the committee.
No substantial amplification Of the
powers OF the department seems nee
essary according, to the committee,
which holds that most of the evils
which have been disclosed by the in-
yestigation would have been impossi-
BILE had there been vigorous perform
ance Of the duties already laid upon
the insurance department.
The remedial legislation commend
ed by the committee proves for the
safeguarding of rights of policy hold
ers in mutual companies in the elec-
ton of directors; recommends that
stock companies be given authority
to retire their stock and become mu-
tual companies, but that such mutual
ization shall not be compulsory; va
rious regulations are urged to pre-
vent unwise investments and improp-
.er syndicate operations; the sale Of
prohibited securities within five years
is advocated; a recommendation for
the limiting of new business to $3.50,
100000 year is made. The commit
tee favors the prohibition Of contri-
buttons by insurance companies for
political purposes; lobbying is con-
demned and the wisdom Of economical
management is urged, but the COM
mittee does not deem it advisable
that the legislature should attempt to
prescribe the expenditures Of insur-
ance companies.
Further recommendation are made
on the valuation of politics, surren-
der values, surplus, forms Of policies
and publicity Of all facts pertaining to
to the penal code is recommended to
provide that the person receiving a
rebate should be equally guilty With
the one who gives it. In its detailed
report of the investigation of the COM
panies, the committee says that the
acts of the mutual insurance compa-
nies should be thoroughly examined
in order that the extent to which
moneys have been misapplied and the
responsibility for any misappropria-
ton which may be shown may be de-
far,,,ipod
