he had murdered a white woman. Of
the fifty-two negro victims, two were
women.

Chicago, H., Del 2S.-Only fifty
seven lynchings were recorded in the
United States in 1910, a much smaller
number than in almost any previous
year in the last sixteen. In 1909 the
total was seventy and in 1908 it was
sixty-five.
All but five of the fifty-seven cases
of lynching in 1910 were of negroes,
and ten of these cases were those IN
which the charge against the victim
was assault on white women or girls.
In eleven of the remaining number
the charge was attempted criminal as
sault. In the five cases of white
men. four were for murder and the
other for aiding and abetting in a jail
delivery. Several of the cases in
which negroes were lynched were
based upon the murder, or alleged
murder, of white women in which the
question of assault is implied.
AS in previous years, nearly all the
lynchings were in southern states,
Florida and Georgia having ten each,
Alabama and Arkansas eight each,
and Texas six. The only lynching in
the north occurred in Ohio, the victim
being Carl Etherington, an agent of
the Ohio Anti-Saloon League, who

Newark following his Imprisonment in

eleven; robbery, four; attempted MUIR
der, seven; aiding and abetting jail
delivery, three; assault with intent to
do bodily injury, one; insulting wo-
men, two; threatening to commit muir
der, two
In many of these cases the lynch
ings followed the arrest or conviction
of the victims on the charges made
against them. In other cases the vic
tins met death while endeavoring to
escape from pursuing posses. In two
cases the negro victims were lynched
by mobs composed of members of
their own race. In almost every case
the victim was summarily hanged or
shot without burning at the stake,
such as accompanied these acts of
summary vengeance in former years.
In the foregoing record the word
''lynching' has been held to apply
only to the summary punishment in
flicted by mob or by any number of
citizens on a person alleged to have
committed a crime for which that
person should have been tried accord
ing to law. This limitation excludes
