POSSE AFTER NEGROES
Man Hunt on for Murderer Who
Shot Police Chief StaIIinqs.
Another Negro Shot Policeman While
Resisting Arrest-DoubIe Lynch
ing May Follow Capture.

Raleigh, N. c., Sept. 20.-A big man
hunt with bloodhounds is being made
through Nash and Franklin counties
by the sheriff and posse of citizens
for a negro who shot and fatally
wounded Police Chief Stallings of
Springhope, N. c., while the officer
was attempting to arrest him for IL
legally selling whisky.
Chief Stallings, though apparently
dying, was put on a train and taken
to a Richmond hospital, but the doc
tors say it is very probable the pa
tient will die before reaching his des-
tination. Another negro shot a po-
liceman at Goldsboro while an arrest
was being attempted and a mob of
lynchers are out securing the woods
for him. There may be two lynch
ings if the outlaws are captured.

FUGITIVE NEGRO FREED
Fear Of Lynch Law If He Was Re-

Chicago, Sept. 20.-Possible lynch

when Judge Tuthill in the circuit court
ordered the discharge from custody Of
Stephen Green, the negro arrested a
few weeks ago ON a fugitive warrant
charging him with the murder of Will
lam Sidel, plantation owner of Jeri-
cho,. Ark.
The argument throughout the trial
was based largely on the danger Of
mob outbreaks in case the negro was
taken back to Arkansas, where feeling
has been running high since the death
of the farmer.

Illinois Central Reportedkin Un-
healthy Financial State.
MAGISTRATES RATE RAISE
Comptroller of the Railway system
Tells Commerce Board of the
Heavy Losses Sustained
by the Road.

Chicago, Sept. 20.-Between losses
through grating officials and dishon-
est-repairing companies and through
having to ship freight at rates which
they say do not yield a profit, the Illi-
nols Central Railway company is in an
unhealthy financial condition, accord
Ing to testimony of Martin B. Blau-
welt, comptroller of the road, before
the interstate commerce commission
sitting in Chicago.
SO heavy were the losses of the
road repres ented that the officials said
II the rates on shipments in the west
ern territory were not advanced the H.
Inois Central would not be able to
pay any dividends at all for the next
two years.
Comptroller Blauvelt spoke in de-
tense of the claim of the railroads that
they are entitled to an advance in
rates and against the answer of repre-
sentativesl of Illinois shippers that the
advance should not be allowed by the
commission.
Mr.. Blauvelt said that the Illinois
Central may find itself without a dol
lar of surplus at the end of the pres
ent year. He said that If the company
had not recovered about 100000, al
legged to have been stolen by grating
officials and car-repail ,ng companies,
the entire surplus would have been
wiped out before this time. An unu-
sual decrease in 1909 in the cost of
maintenance of way was said to be re-
sponsible for the small surplus of
s230,OOO.
President J. T. Harahan of the ILL
nois Central said that the comptrol-
1er's figures and statements were cor
rect. He declared that conditions
must change to insure prosperity for
the railroad. Mr. Harahan admitted
that only fortunate circumstances had
prevented the entire depletion of the
surplus shrinking at the rate of $1,000
600 year. ...f:
"The Illinois Central does not stand
alone in the dire need of freight-rate
increases" said Mr. Harahan. when
this hearing is closed the shipper will
see it is to the best advantage of all
concerned to grant the rate increases. .

Will Probe Shooting of Mayor
by James ]. Gallagher.
INDICTMENT EXPECTED SOON
In Letter to Sister Mr.. eaynor States
He Was Not Afraid to Die
Says Gotham journalism Is
on Very Low Plane.

New York, Sept. 20-The case Of
James ]. Gallagher, who attempted to
assassinate Mayor Gaynor on board
the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse as the
mayor was about to sail for Europe,
was taken up by the grand jury. An
Indictment is expected shortly.
Miss Mary Gaynor, of Utica, n. Y,
a sister of the mayor, has given to the
press copy of a letter written to her
by the mayor on Sept. 3, describing
his sensations when he was shot and
the conditions that preceded the as
sassin's attempt. He says he had dis
continued his daily walks across the
Brooklyn bridge after receiving many
threatening letters and after repeated
attacks upon him by Hearst news
papers.
After describing his actual sensa-
tons after the shots were fred the
mayor says in part:
II struggled to breathe through my
mouth, but could not, and thought I
was dying of strangulation. / kept
thinking all the time-the best thing
to do. l was not a bit afraid to die
If that was Gods will of me. l said
to myself, Just as we'll now as a few
years from now
81 could now see faces and wanted
to get away from the crowd. l could
not bear to have them looking at me
in the plight | was in, especially the
crowd of newspapermen and more es-
pecially those with cameras. Two
Of them rushed up from the line where
they all stood and put their cameras
right in my face and snapped them.
/ finally put up my hand and think
said don't l hope these pictures
were not published.
"The matter of the pictures of the
Reno prize fight had come up. / had
no way as mayor to stop the theaters
from showing them. The district at
torney and corporation counsel de-
cided that there was no law forbidding
such pictures. But the Hearst news
papers kept on denouncing me for not
stopping them. I suppose you know
the way they had belied me ever since
l became mayor. Finally, one day
they printed In large type that an Of
ficer of the Christian Endeavor society
named Lowande had called on me at
the mayors Office and asked me on
behalf of that society to stop the pic
lures and that l told him he was q
fool and was sent by FOOLS had
never said such thing, as you may
we'll know. 1t was all made up.
Such journalism is, Of course, in
absolute defiance of the criminal law,
and it did not enter my mind to pub
licly call on the grand juries to pro-
tect me from it, but l was weak and
feared people would say was thin
skinned. But the time is at hand when
these journalistic scoundrelsr have got
to stop or get out, and l am ready
now to do my share to that end.
