(By Associated Press. }

Cincinnati, July 29.-Chased by an
angry mob of more than fifty white
persons, a negro whose name was
said to be O'Neal, made his escape
tonight after he had stabbed Mrs.
Benjamin Winer, and knocked down
and injured several other persons.
The affair, which rapidly developed
into the proportions Of race riot,
occurred in West Sixth street i'll the
down town district, After stabbing
the woman, who interferred because
he had slapped his little daughter,
O'Neal was set upon by the crowd, d,
which threatened to lynch him.
Brandishing an ugly looking knife
the negro held his pursuers at bay
and at a late hour the police had not
apprehended him. Other negroes in
the vicinity came to O'Neal's assist
ance during the trouble and police
reserves we're rushed to the scene
and succeeded in restoring order.
Mrs. Winer will recover.

Chicago, July 29.-The superinten-

woman for the first time in its his
tory. Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, prin-
cipal of the Chicago Normal school
since 1905 and an educator of nation

the newly organized board of educa-
tion to head the public schools.
Mrs. Young's selection followed a
struggle for the Office which has been
going on since the resignation of Ed
win G.. Cooley several months ago.
At one time the question of Mr..
Cooleys successor appeared to fore
shadow a split in the membership
of the board that could not be heal
ed. Many educators from other cit
les have been urged by their friends
for the position but the board de-
cided to appoint Chicago man or

Halted by the mandate of Presi-

compelled to turn back and revise
their rates on lumber and gloves. In
a communication to Senator Aldrich
and Representative Payne the pres

and glove rates by shading very
slightly higher on each, they were so
the high rates On lumber as fixed by

of the ten mile official speed trial of
Orville Wright's aeroplane tonight.
It had been announced that Wright
would make the test after sundown
If weather permitted and by o'clock
large crowd had gathered at Ft.
Myer. Until word came from the
Alexandria end of the course at Z
o'clock that strong wind was blow
ing, Orville Wright seemed deter
mined to make the trial.
The aeroplane was wheeled across
the field and placed on the starting
rail. The motor was tried out for a
final test and the crowd applauded.
Their eagerness and expectancy were
turned into dismay a little later
when they saw the signal corps men
mount the aeroplane on wheels pre-
paratory to taking it back to the
shed. The spectators seemed good
natured however They have be-
come used to postponement at FIT.
Myer. After holding a consultation
with the signal corps officers tonight
the Wrights decided that they would
not attempt a flight tomorrow but
would probably do so tomorrow
evening.
