NEGROES ARE FLEEING
Mere Than Two Thousand are Said
to Have Left the City, Known
Dead Now Five and Fifteen Un-
sons Victim Unable to identify Him

Springfield, I'll. Aug. 1.-THE race
war which began here last Friday
night is now believed to be a thing
of the past. Last night passed with
out incident and it was confidently
asserted today by those in charge OF
the situation that no mob of any
size will form from now on
a special grand jury was summon
ed this morning by Judge James j.
Creighton to Investigate the outrages
and indict the guilty. A large amount
of evidence duplicating many citizens
has already been obtained.
Four hundred negroes have availed
themselves of the shelter and protec-
ton offered at the arsenal. It is esti-
mated that 1000 negroes have left
the city, many never to return.
Five hundred soldiers patrol the
streets, and there has been compare
lively little violence since the Second
infantry from Chicago swept thru
the streets yesterday. The prompt
action of the troops thwarted the eff
forts to cut the fire alarm wires and
burn the negro sections.

Donnegan, the aged negro who was
lynched Saturday night, and Frank
Ditmore, white, who was shot while
watching the rioting, the list of
known dead was increased to five.
Eight of the wounded are not expect
ed to recover, and the list of un-
known dead Is estimated at fifteen.
There are two hundred prisoners in
Jail who may be indicted for murder
by the special grand jury summoned
today. States Attorney Hatch is
backed by Governor Deneen and
three-fourths of the citizens of Spring
field in the efforts to bring to trial
those who participated in the rioting.
Among the refugees in the arsenal
is Mrs. VIM. Donnegan, the white
widow OF the aged negro who was
lynched Saturday niht. 1t was because
of her marriage to Donnegan tnat
the mob feeling against her husband
is believed to have been aroused.
The police are meeting the usual
difficulties in their attempts to dis
cover the leaders of the riot. All ar
rested so far claim to have been pres
ent merely as spectators. The patrol
men claim they could not recognize
any of the rioters.

hearts, 'Hurrah, Hurrah!"
Looking for a business venture was
the sole purpose of these men coming
across the barren plains, and immed-
lately after arriving here they nego-
tiated a deal with the late Fred Roth,
buying out his little general store,
at the Chisum ranch, near where the
located. They remained at this point
only a few months, and in the sum-
mer of 1886 came to Roswell and
opened up the pioneer store in this
city. This store occupied the site of
the present great mercantile firm of
Jaffa, Prayer & Co., wholesale and
retail dealers in general merchan-
disc, sheep, cattle, wool and mohair.
When the store was first opened
here many difficulties were encoun-
tered, but facing difficulties and hard
ships is the history of the sturdy ones
who had their eyes westward, and
the frontier now has been drowned
in the Pacific ocean,
In SO it was about 200 miles any
way to get supplies and goods. Most
of the stuff consigned to Jaffa, Pra-
ger & Co. came to Las Vegas and
was freighted from there with OK
teams. This point was 200 miles
north. Mail came only three times a
week. and was from San Antonio, N.
NJ, near the present site of Socorro.
Some supplies were brought In from
south, and Amarillo, Texas, was To-
Gated about 200 miles northeast, but
very little supplies came that route.
For about six months of each year
ox-teams were strung from Roswell
to Las Vegas, and they were busy
conveying goods here to be distrib-
uted by Jaffa, Prayer & Co.
In those good old days, now gone
down into history, a person hardly
ever saw a dollar in currency; 1t be-
ing strictly banking check system.
Very odd to the new-timers to think
of dollar never being in sight, but
such was the fact. Cow-punchers
would come parading into town and
have check for their wages. Come
to think of it, money is only good for
what it represents, and the checks
in the early days of Southeastern
New Mexico were as good as gold.
Forging, raising and other rascalities
in regard to checks were as uncom-
mon and unthought of as cat OBJ
serving the Sabbath day.
Most of the checks brought In
were drawn on the Albuquerque Ma
tional Bank, and most of them were
taken to Jaffa, Prayer & Co. Supplies
were bought and the balance was Civ
en- with check. Generally they
would as fast as feet could take them
go to some gambling device. Win or
lose. the check would be changed n

ALBERT TAYLOR, ACTOR,
IN TROUBLE IN ARKANSAS.

Albert Taylor, the actor and mana
ger Of a travelling company, has been
arrested at Fort Smith, Ark, on the
charge of beating his leading lady,
Miss Katharine Kane, after she had
repeatedly asked him for money to
the amount of $500 claimed to be due
as salary and for cash advanced to
finance the company. Both of these
players are we'll known in Roswell,
having shown here several times. 1t
is told by Miss Kane that she did not
have Taylor arrested at the time of
his first attack on her, but that when
he beat her, almost tore her waist
from her in a scuffle and threw her
into the street she had to appeal to
the law.

FIFTEEN LIVES LOST
IN STEAMER EXPLOSION

Grand Rapids, Mich, Aug. 18.-A
dispatch from Petoskey says the
steamer Lelanau was blown up on
Carp lake this morning, with loss
of fifteen or more lives. Three are
known to be dead, and at least
two fatally injured and many more
seriously hurt. The only identified
dead is Mrs. Abel Labonta, of Trav-
erse City, Mich. The fatally injured
are Mrs. Ralph Hastings and A B.
Cook, of Traverse City.
The steamer, which plies between
resorts on Carp lake, was on the way
from Lelanau to Fourche, carrying
thirty to forty passengers. At 7:3O
this morning the boiler blew up, hurl-
ing many persons into the lake and
scalding others. The upper works OF
the steamer were entirely blown to
pieces. A panic followed the explo-
sion, and it was some time before
help could be given those thrown into
the water
Mrs. Labonte was sitting near the
pilot house, talking with her brother,
Charles Mosher, captain of the boat,
and was blown far out into the wa
ter and terribly mangled. John Hart
ung, who was at the wheel, was prob
ably fatally injured. Those flung into
the water were many of them res
cued by farmers living along the
shore.
