WithdraWs Plea of Guilty.

Charles Lindsay, the colored mao,
who was charged with assault with a
deadly weapon with intent to kill
upon another darkey named Williams,
on the old Clark ranch, one mile
south of this city, was brought before
the superior court last Monday to
receive his sentence. Up to this time
he had been unrepresented by counsel.
But on Monday W. G Snyder appear
ed as his attorney, and asked per-
mission to Withdraw the plea of
guilty. This was granted. He there
upon stated that the defendant was
willing to plead guilty to the lesser
oifense of assault with deadly
weapon. This was accepted by the
district attorney, On Tuesday the
defendant appeared for sentence, and
was sentenced to pay fine of 5000 or
in default to be imprisoned in the
county Jail for $50 days,or at the rate
of 81 per day. The higher charge
would have involved a term in the
penitentiaIy. The impression has
got abroad that the assault was made
in protection of the defendants
home and family, to drive otf an un-
welcome intruder. Hence a good
deal of sympathy was elected in his
behalf. This view made his conduct
justiiiable, as an act of SELF efense,
1t should be the law that no man
should be allowed to plead guilty to
"A state prison otfense except in the
presence of an attorney of his own
selection or one appointed by the

l. p. Allen who is said to represent
the underwriters association of San
Francisco, as we'll as manager of the
Chinese bank, is making a deter
mined effort to gust the receiver.
What forces are behind him in this
effort il q matter of conjecture. and
is viewed differently according to
Individual opinions and sympathies.
BY many it is viewed as a flank
movement in the interest of the
bank wreckers, and not of the de
postors. 1t seems the committee Of
depositors secured So per cent of the
claims TO resurrect the bank and run
it for the depositors. But the cash
required to settle with the others,
and to resume business was not
obtaInable, so that scheme fell
through. The 50 per cent of claims
have been assigned to Allen, and
with this he made an application to
the superior court last Saturday to
have the receiver discharged. The
court declined to ao5 hastily, and
will see that all the depositors are
protected. or course, if all parties
in interest turn their claims over to
Allen, there seems no other alter
native than to dismiss all court pro-
ceedIngs. There is no one left to
protect. The assignee of the claim
ants is the only one Interested, and
if he wants to take charge, that is his
privilege. The matter will come up
for hearing on the 18th of June. If
the balance of the creditors are
brought into the assIgnee's camp, the
matter will probably be settled with
out any receivership.

ly investigated the proposition to as

course was inadvisable, and CON
oluded that the better course was to
have receiver appointed under the
state commission to close up its at

is going ahead with his work. He will
devote his energies toward getting all
there is in it for the depositors, and

Monticello, KY, Dec. l7,-Elmer
Fill, the youth charged with assault
ing and numbering little Mamie Wo-
mack, in Russell county, was taken
from the Wayne county Jail here last
night and hanged by mob. which
quietly dispersed after accomplishing
their object.
While the lynching of Hill did
not cause much surprise, it was
generally thought that there would be
some delay in the matter owing to
the fact that the members ofthe mob
would find some difficulty In fording
the river at night Sheriff Wright
ard Jailer Ramsay expressed their
confidence in their ability to pro-
tect their prisoner, but they were
completely taken eff their guard and
he was secured before they could Of
fer any resistance.
1t was about midnight, when
band of men, twenty-six strong, ap-
,peared in town, and proceeding quiet
~ to the Jail found the Sheriff on
guard. Before the sheriff knew what
had happened he was looking into
the barrel of a Winchester rifle, and
a deep base voice was commanding
him to hold up his hands. There
was no chance for the officer to offer
any resistance or call for help,
and while one of the band stood
guard over him the others quickly
found Hill, and in few moments
were on their way to Greasy creek,
about five miles from jamestown.
There they threw a rope over the
limb of a sycamore tree and hang
ed him without delay. Then, after
firing a few bullets through his
body, they left him, and the mob
dispersed as quietly as they had
come.
The crime which caused the lynch
ing Of young Hill was one of the mo t
brutal in the annals of Russell coun-
ty. Little Mamie Womack, a lS-year-
old girl, living not far from Rus
sell Springs, failed to return home
from, school at the usual time one
day last week, and her parents, be-
coming alarmed, aroused the neigh
bors and search was instituted.
The child's mutiliated body was
finally found in the woods not far
from her home, and all the surround
ings indicated that she had been
assaulted and murdered. There was
70 clew to the slayer and the
whole country was up in arms.
