Springfield, Ill, Aug. 16.-With one
victim added Saturday night to the
roll Of the fatally injured in the race
riots which began here Friday night.
Springfield spent the night in anx-
iety. Apprehension of more serious
trouble was modified but not stilleH
by the presence of $500 national
guardsmen from various parts of the
state under command of Major Gener-
al Young.
Saturday nights victim of the race
prejudice was an aged negro, William
Donegan. He was cObbler and re-
spected as a simple and unoffensive
citizen. His shop was within two
blocks of the statehOuse. Saturday
night, in the absence Of a patrol,
mob set fire to the shop and the ven
cradle negro was compelled by the
smoke to run into the street. His
appearance was greeted by showers
of stones and bricks and as he stag
gered under the fusiIade he was
seized and his throat cut. A rope
was run through the wound and the
victim bound to a tree. There ne
was found later unconscious and all
but dead. DR.. futile, who dressed
the wound, reported that death was
a matter of hours. A witness to the
firing of the shop turned in an alarm,
but when the firemen appeared the
blaze was out 1t had not gained
much Roadway and had been extin-
guished by some of the cooler-headed
members of the mob
Two companies of infantry and n
troop of cavalry were rushed to the
scene and at their appearance the
crowd dispersed in all directions
Six arrests were made, among the
prisoners being a man whose name
was given as A. Rainor, said 70 have
come from st. Louis.
Coincident with the attack ON Don
egan, a less serious disturbance oc-
CURED in front of the new state arm
DRY. A crowd gathered and threat
ened to storm the place, wherein
there were sheltered a number of ne
gro refugees. Two companies of the
fourth infantry and troop B, cavalary,
came on the double-quick and charged
with bayonets. AS in the previous
incident, the mob fed precipitately

A Mexico Boys Sentence.

jefferson City. Mo-. July ia
An application for u writ Or habeas
corpus was filed with the Supreme
Court 10 banc to-day, on behalf Of
Roy Stewart. under sentence of
twenty-five years in the Peniien-
tiary from Audrain County. for
assault. The basis of the appli-
cation is that Stewart is but 16
years old, aud that he ought to
have been sentenced to the Reform
School.
There is doubt as to the con-
stIuction of Sections Nos. 1881
and 1853 OF the Revised Statutes
governing such cases. Stewart is
in the custody of the Sheriff OF
Audrain County, under a stay OF
sentence for fifteen days, pending
action by the Supreme Court.
Fits held that Stewart should be
committed to the Reform School, il
will be equivalent to reducing bis
sentence to five years, for one can.
not be held there after reaching the
age of 81.
Later. The writ of la beas cor
pus was denied by the court anC
young Stewart will have to serve
