LYNCHED BY MOB.
NEGRO WHO ASSAULTED LADY
LYNCHED BY CITIZENS. -
Execution Only Accomplished After
Eleven Men Had Been Shot Down
by the Sheriff.

A dispatch from Pensacola, Fla,
says two men killed and nine wound
ed, some of them fatally, is the re-
cord Of the clash between the mob
bent on lynching Leander Shaw, a
negro, and the sheriff and his forces,
in which the mob finally overpowered
the authorities of that place -sFhurs-
day. The lynching was carried out
in the most prominent part Of the
city.
Shaw Wednesday assaulted Mrs.
Lillian Davis, highly respected lady
of that city, during the absence Of
her husband, and after cutting her
throat almost from ear to ear, club
bed her over the head with revol-
yer, which he had taken from the
house. During the afternoon when
it became known that the negro had
been. arrested, crowds began forming
upon the streets and early in the
night they were reinforced by large
numbers of men from the country.
The mob formed about eight
o'clock that night and made an at
tack upon the county jail, where the
negro was confined. The jail gate
vns broken down by the mob, and
he sheriff and his deputies opened
ire. Three men dropped from the
irst volley of the sheriff's fire. Vol
uy after volley was then fired by
he sheriff's force, but the mob was
repulsed.
About midnight another attack was
made, the mob having increased to
one thousand determined men. The
second attack was successful, for the
eason that it was made upon all
sides { the Jail. One party forced
IS way ,hrough to the rear, overpow-
aring the officers and securing the
rembling negro.
A moose was slipped about his neck
rd afer being dragged for two
blocks he Was strunk up to an elec-
trio light pcle in the centre of the
park, where fully 1000 bullets COM
pletely riddind his body.
The deal are: Henry C. Kellum,
street car :aotorman; Bud Nicholas,
4 ?!2n:r?.
The wrun,led are: Charlie Turner,
probably fatally; Jos. Brewton, prob
ably fatally; Jailer J. H. Beaton,
probably fatally; bud" Knowles,
probably fatally; Sheriff Jas c. Van
Pelt, John Van Pelt, a brother; Fred
Humphreys, w. P. BroWnson and w.
P. Bayliss.
Probably dozen or more others
were slightly wounded. The body
of Shaw was cut down next morning
by orders of the authorities. The
baby, who was struck by the negro
at the time he tried to kill the
mother it is said will recover.
The fearful cost at which Shaw
was secured and made to answer
the penalty Of outraged people is
greatly deplored, and citizens are in
unit in great sorrow over the re-
suits of storming the county jail.
Mrs. Lillian Davis, Shaw's victim.
is in q desperate condition and her
life is despaired Of. The wounded
men in Wednesday nights battle are
receiving every attention.
The coroner's jury investigating
the riot found that Leander Shaw,
came to his death at the hands OF
men unknown to them. The jury is
also to investigate the death OF kel
lum. who was shot and killed In thu
scuffle at the jail.
