DALLAS, Texas, March S.-Torn
from the very grasp of the law by
members of a mob of 5000 today, Allen
Brooks, an aged negro, charged with
criminany assaulting a three-year-old
white child, was hanged for his crime.
Brooks was seized In the court room,
where he was to be tried, and tossed
through q window to the main body OF
the mob which waited in the street
below.
His broken body was dragged
through the streets and he was hanged
near the Elks' arch. The MOB was
led by an old negro.
Hardly a word was spoken and not
a shot was fired. The loudest sound
was the aged negro's shrieks for
mercy.
After Brooks was hanged the mob
took possession of Dallas for nearly
three hours. The Jail was stormed ana
death was threatened to three other
negroes held on charges of murder.
They had been taken away, however,
and after a vain search the mob dis
persed.
The wounded victim of Brooks was
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. M. D.
Buven.

BLUEFIELDS, Nicaragua, March 3.
The insurrectionary movement head
ed by General Estrada against the Mic
araguan government practically has
been crushed. The insurgents In the
west have petered out and nothing is
left the PROFESSIONALS but resort TO
guerilla warfare, encouraged by the
desperate hope that the United States
may yet intervene in a wish to put an
end to the disturbed situation in the
republic.
For the first time today the cores
pondents and more prominent person.
ages of this city were told the true
situation, which, however, has been
suspected for week.
Campaign Failure
1t is now admitted General Chamor-
ros campaign was a failure. He had
hoped that the interior would welcome
and reinforce the insurgents arms.
This was possible up to the time that
President Zelaya resigned. His resig-
nation and the election of President
Madriz appears to have satisfied the
people of the interior and the west
generally and when General Estrada's S
army reached the heart of the country
they were given a lukewarm reception
and little or no aid.
There is still talk of new republic
comprising the eastern half of Mica
ragua- General Estrada may proclaim
such a republic and appeal to the
United States to protect it from IN
yasion by the Madriz government. Ad-
ditional supplies of ammunition are eX-
pected here and these will be used to
further guerilla warfare.
Tisma the Waterloo
The destructive blow fell at Tisma
on February %, when General Cha
MORO was defeated In killed, wound
ed and captured the insurgent general
lost 800 men. Chamorro himself barely
escaped with 100 or 200 men and fled to
San Vicente, where General Mena was
intrenched. Godfrey Fowler, the
American who was in charge of the in
surgent artillery, was wounded in the
leg and left at a plantation near Tlsma
General Chamorro is said to have
reached san Vicente Sunday and tC
have wired his report yesterday. He
estimates the enemys loss at 1000 mer
and explains his defeat by the exhaus'
ton of his cartridge supply.
Americans Go to Front
With the remnant of Chamorro'
! force there are now at San Vicente SO'
provisional soldiers. Fifteen American
| recruited at Panama started to tn
front today and an effort is made u
gather 500 additional recruits anon;
| the Nicaraguans of the city. The pres
ent indications are for this style o
bushwhacking, presumably with tn
hidea of compelling the United States t
| intervene.
The sentiment in favor of interven
ton has been growing since Mena'
defeat at Santa Clara nearly montl
ago. Information as to General Estra
da's willingness to allow the Unite'
States to step in and supervise the elec
tions was conveyed to the state depart
ment some time ago, but elected no ex
preston from President Taft or Sec
retary Knox.
Bluefields will now extend open arm
to almost any proposition leading t
the termination of hostilities.
