Rutland, Aug. 1.-The strike of the
street railroad conductors and motor
men Saturday did not prevent the

Wadell & Mahoney, among the best
known strike breakers in the coun-
try, is here in charge OF 80 men who
also are armed as the company will
take no chances, although the 80
striking employees have stated that
there will be no violence on their
part.
All the IL deputy sheriffs in Rut-

BEAT "JEFFs" IN SEVENTH
Unusual Play "6roke Up" Game With
Schenectady Team

Bennington beat the Jeffersonians
of Schenectady in league game at
Morgan park Saturday afternoon by
score of 8 to 3. Bennington won the
game in the seventh inning after
peculiar play had broken up" things
in favor of the home team. Mitchell
was the first man up and hit safely
to short center. The natural play
was for Ryan to bunt the runner to
second When the ball was deliver
ed by the Jeff pitcher every infielder
on that team came in to meet the
bunt. Third baseman Cherry came
in on the third baseline for the ball
but did not field 1t in time enough to
catch Ryan at first. Ryan and Nit
chell observing that the bases were
not covered each made a steal and
advanced to third and second. The
play upset the Jeffs and hits by era
pc and Prindle scored three runs.
Mitchell pitched excellent ball for
Bennington. He was bit unsteady
in the third and fourth innings but i'm
proved in control as the game pro
crossed and during FIVE innings re-
tired the Schenectady batters without
hit.
The Jeffersonlans earned a run in
the opening inning on a two-bagger
and single. In the third the com
bination OF base on balls, sacrifice
two hits and an error by King gave
the visitors two more. At this point
they stopped scoring and made but
one hit during the remainder Of the
game.
Bennington scored one in the sec
ond on hit and two errors. Another
was made in the sixth on singles BY
Sullivan and burlington and an error
in left field. THE break" came in
the seventh and the game was put
away for keeps.
Martin pitched good ball for Schen
ectady. 1t was not until the sixth in
ming that the home team was able &c
secure more than one hit In a period
He also made two of the hits credited
to his team. The score:

LAKEVlLLE PROVES SOFT
Plttsfied Does as it Likes and Wins
10 10

Lakeyille proved soft picking for
Pitsfield Saturday at Pltsfeld and
the visitors were down 10 to /. The
home team tried out a new pitcher
and he worked very well, holding the
visitors to five hits. Hughes was
hailed as a wonder and he was cred
tied with nine strike outs but he was
coaxed for 13 hits which really won
the game. Catcher Barnum was spik-
ed in the first inning by Hickey who
had attempted to score on a grounder
to Foley. Barnum blocked Hickey
and sustained. two severe gashes for
his pains. Cahill. an, outfielder was
hen pressed into service and the
home boys ran wild on the bases. Sill
vernail who took Barnum's place in
the game was the chief attraction
with two hits out of three times up.
One of them drove in the run scored
by Lakeyille. His fast fielding at
tracted some notice. The score by

Sheriff Finds Many Bodies and Says

Palestine, Tex, Aug. 1.-At least
10, perhaps 90 negroes, all probably
unarmed, were hunted down and kill
ed by mob of from 200 to 800 men
in the Slocum and Denison Springs
neighborhood of Palestine Saturday
night and yesterday, according to
Sheriff Black, who returned early on
Sunday morning after "a hours in that
district. He told of fierce man-hunt
in the woods, of riddled bodies found
on lonely roads and of the terror
among the inhabitants in the south
eastern part of Anderson county.
Sheriff Black says his estimate of
the dead is conservative. He made
careful investigation and after tell
ing Of its results, added
Eve won't find some of the bodies
until the location is revealed to us
by the buzzards."
Il found the greatest excitement
prevailing throughout that section of
the country" continued the sheriff.
Men were going about and killing
negroes as fast as they could find

These negroes have done no wrong
that could discover. There was just
a hot headed gang hunting them
down and killing them.
I'VE found II bodies, but from what
| have heard, the dead must number
10 or 20. We came across four bod

Denison Springs and Slocum
Il don't know how many there was
in the mob. but ! think there must
have been 200 or 800 Some of them
cut the telephone wires.
Where we found the four dead
bodies one negro had been killed the
night before. Three negroes were
sitting up with the remains, one OF
them being an old and white haired
negro. These three were killed

The fans have showed a disposition
to make Rightiielder King the scape-
goat for the loss of the game to Pitts
field. Two men certainly scored
when the rightfelder muffled a fly in
the third inning but there would not
have been two men on bases to make
the scores had Finnegan fielded the
grounder that was batted to him but
a moment previous. Then again Ben
nington didn't bat hard enough to win
a game from any team Outside of
Ryan, Prindle and King there is not
another man in the four teams of the
league who could have beaten out TO
first base the two short hits of Ryan
Had 1t so happened that these infield
hits had fallen to the lot OF any one
Of the infielders on the Bennington
team Pitcher Cranker would have had
no-hit game to his credit The hit
credited to King is technical, for he
could have been thrown out at first

stop not made try for another play

out through that county to collect
all the arms they could find in the
houses of the negroes. They made
thorough seaeh of the houses, but
found only nine single barrellel shot
guns, none of which seemed to have
been fired lately, and about 80 shells,
all loaded with small shot.
Il am led to believe that the
trouble was due to a controversy
over promissory note. r. Afford, a
white man, had gone on a negros
note. The note came due and he got
after the negro to renew it or to pay
1t and the negro refused and cursed
him. The incident caused bad feel
ing. This negro was killed and then
they went to killing them all over the
country. They hunted the negroes
down like sheep.
