TWO NEGROES ARE CREMATED Taken from Jail by
 Missouri Mob. ACCUSED OF CRIMINAL ASSAULT T, 900 Men Storm Residence of the
 County Sheriff. Secure Keys to Jail, Get Prisoners Who Arc Hanged to Statue of the
 Goddess of Liberty and
 Then Roasted.

Springfield. Mo, April 14.--A mob Of 5000 men tonight took two negroes. Horace Duncan and Jim Copeland from the county Jail, hanged them to the Goddess of Liberty on the court house and built fire under them and they were roasted to death. The men were charged with assaulting Mabel Ed wards.
 Mabel Edwards came here recently from Monett, Mo, and obtained em- ployment as a domestic. Last night while Miss Edwards and a young man were riding in a buggy they were stop ped by two negroes who beat the young man. named Cooper. into unconscious ness and dragged Miss Edwards into the woods by the roadside. Duncan and Copeland were arrested on suspi- cion but there was little evidence against them. A mob of 1000 men gathered at the city jail at 8 o'clock tonight and upon learning that the ne- groes were not here hastened to the county jail where the prisoners were confined.
 Instead of attacking the jail at first the mob stormed the residence of the county sheriff. breaking down doors. smashing windows, destroying practi- cally all the furniture in the lower part of the house and rendering the sher- ifrs wife unconscious from fright, Overcoming the resistance of the-sher- if and a posse of deputies the mob secured the key to the jail and gained entrance. It had no difficulty in To- eating the cells of Duncan and Cope land.
 When the committee who entered the jail came out with the two negroes the mob began to clamor for summary execution, shouting Hang them,' Burn them The men were taken to the public square and hanged to statue of the Goddess of Liberty. A fire was then kindled under them in which they were l roasted to death. a crowd of 5000 watching their agonfes.
 After the negrSes- were dead the bod les were left burning. Both the ne- groes were under twenty-one years of age.

 Up Courage.
 New York. April 1.-The Tribune today says:
 Maxim Gorky's fourth day in Amer lea was signalized by the sending of telegram of sympathy to w. D. Hay wood and Charles Mover. of the West ern Federation of Miners, in jail at Caldwell Idaho. on the charge of con splracy to murder exGovernor Steuen- enburg Gorky's action. 1t is feared by some of his friends. blights the pros poets of his work here at the outset.
 The telegram was as follows: "W. II. Haywood and Charles Mover.

 Greetings to you my brother so- cialists. Courage. The day of justice and deliverance for the oppressed of all the world is at hand. Ever fra ternally yours,
 Maxim Gorky" Gaylord Wiltshire. whose apartments at the hotel Belleclaire are occupied by Gorky was seen last night and said: T am responsible for the Initiative n the telegram mater. It was not matter of deliberatton, but 1t occurred to me when 1 saw Gorky at the recep- ton at the eBlleclaire. I asked him if he would approve message of sympa- thy to Haywood and Mover and he said yes l then phrased 1t and had IL typtWrltIens hdiif anu SpHt 1t. I subsequently, submitted copy of the message to Young Nikola Pieschoff. Gorkys step-son, and he approved It as expressing Gorkys sentiments.
 'I certainly believed when l secured Gorky's approval that he was thor oughly familiar with the circumstances under which Haywood and Mover are restrained of their liberty. On more mature reflection I would not feel war ranted that he appreciated in all of it's aspects the effect of such a telegram" Gorky made an appointment to meet John Mitchell at 2 o'clock this after noon. The Russian Social Democratic League gave a dinner last night at which sympathy with Russian revolO- tionary movement received enthusi- astic approval Gorky appeared and was greeted with an ovation.

Kansas City, April 14.--Represent- ative Charles A. Towne of New York. responding to toast here last night at the Jefferson day banquet, went outside his set speech to eulogize Will liam ]. Bryan and to bitterly attack President Roosevelt. Both sentiments aroused the most intense enthusiasm. reference to the Nebraskan endinsl In demonstration that amounted to an uproar. Mir. Towne did not refer to MT. Bryan by name.
 Your toastmaster has put on me the duty of referring to our great standard bearer of 1Sg6," said he. T feel almost that he himself in far away India must be catching the enthusiasm of your homage tonight"
 MT. Towne then read from an edi- torial in which sympathy was offered to the Democratic editor who was wont to write columns of imperialism and free silver. sa
 q am as thankful as any one that the money question has worked itself out so satisfactorily" resumed Mir. Towne. But I cannot accept In sil- ence the popular version of why the predicted panic that was to follow the adoption of the gold standard did not materialize. The panic did not occur because since 1896 the country has pro- duced enough gold to supply the money fi&A NIL Httttttt AttattiffSh aesfA UeAT N tii the silver output, We owe our pros perity to providence, not to a policy. When men refused to open the mint God opened the mines. :"
 Then Mir. .Towne attacked President Roosevelt. T am going to take you into my confidence this much" said the speaker, by telling you that an going back to Washington with the avowed purpose of exposing President Roosevelt He Is the greatest promiser and smallest performer since tho days of Judas Iscariot He filched his rate legislation program from a National Democratic platform and has now laid down on his bill; he sends for legisla- tors and lectures them like boys.
 And his tools-consider them for a minute. They are a Speaker and a de- generate House. Nowadays there are three steps in national legislation-- getting the permission of Uncle Joe to introduce the bill and then securing its passage in the House and Senate. 1 get no show in the House. I might as well make a prayer to the Speaker and go back home and get to work. I would not stay In Congress or in the Demo- cratic Party if I did not believe that Democracy wid eventually triumph in national affairs"
 It was far after midnight before the speech -making was finished and Mir. Towne's response was to one of the late toasts on the program.
