SAVED FROM LYNCHERS.
Negro is Cut Down After Hanging and
Life is Spared.

Dothan, Ala, Jan. %. = Grover
Franklin, colored, who was taken
away from Sheriff Butler and his
deputies and hanged to a tree, is
again in the hands of the law and
stands chance for recovery.
The mob was so closely followed
by the officers and law-abiding citi-
zens that it did not have time to get
its victim outside the corporate linn
it's, and hurriedly stringing him up to
the first tree, the lynchers fed.
On arrival of the officers the negro
was still alive. 1t is thought he will
recover.

had his day. The new author Of
Shakespeare will probably enjoy his
hour of prominence and then give way
to the discovery of the next new the

MANY TAKE PART IN DEBATE ON
IMMIGRATION QUESTION IN
THE HOUSE.
Whole Subject Opened-vioIent Oppo-

Certain Glasses of AIiens-Secre-
tary CorteIyou Explains Delay.

Washington, Jan. 21.-Unrestrained
immigration question was afforded
members of the house Monday by the
decision, soon after converting, to take
up and consider bill appropriating
$250,000 for an immigration station in
Philadelphia, and so many took ad-
vantage of it that the code of laws
bill which the managers of the house
had planned to take up was side
tracked for the day.
The discussion of the immigration
station bill opened up the whole sub
ject of immigration and excited the
interest of the entire house. Mem
bers from both sides of the chamber
clamored for recognition, which car
Fried with it the right to speak for an
hour, if SO desired.
Chance of First Term Members.
The discussion served to develop
violent opposition, led by Mr. Hep
burn and Mr.. Byrd, to certain classes
of immigrants coming to the United
States, while others made earnest
pleas for them upon the ground that
the prosperity of the country had been
advanced because of their presence in
this country.
The debate was notable in that it
was INDUCED in largely by members
serving their first terms and who
found in the bill chance to make
their maiden efforts at speechmaking
on the floor of the house. The entire
session was devoted to a considera-
ton of the bill, which was passed, and
at 4:53 p. m. the house adjourned.

Il am sorry that there should have
been any misunderstanding as to the

advised of your request to know when

piled that l required little more
time to go over the mass of figures it
involved. 1t is my desire, of course,
that all business of this kind shall be
disposed of promptly, but this matter
is so important that | have felt it
desirable that every feature of the re-
port should be clearly stated, both for
the information of the senate and in

hope to have it ready in the course

town and never again return. When
