NEGROES ACQUITTED.

William Anderson, Thomas Baize and
Barnes Burnice, negroes, were acquitted
10 the Mayors Court in Danville ye'ter-
day of attempted assault on Mrs. John
W. Terrell, wife of one OF the leading
merchants In Dsnville, who was attack
ed 10 a fashionable suburb Of the city
while she was out walking with her
daughter at about dusk, October 10.
The fend who attacked Mrs. Terrell
was nude, and the description she gave
the officers of her assailant led to the
arrest Of Anderson and Bsize. They
we're spirited away to Lyncbburg to pre-
rent mob violence. They were taken
back TO Danville on Monday. Burnice
WIS arrested few days after the crime
was commit cd. Mrs. Ferrell and her
daughter failed to identify the negroes.
Neither saw the face Of the msn, who
hung his head. The negroes yesterday
all established alibis, and at the coDcln-
sion of the testimony Commonwealth
Attorney Hamln did not ask that the
defendants be held any longer. The
fact that the man was nude and has
escaped will make the efforts OF the
police exceedingly difficult.
