Suburban Newspaper Ceases

tentiOn TO Job Printing.

With its issue of tonight the Daily
Chronicle of Orange. which has had
successful career for five years as the
only daily paper printed in the Or
anges, terminates its official existence
and merges with the Newark Evening
Star.
In a formal statement by the man
agement of the Daily Chronicle the
chief reason for discontinuing pub
lieation of the paper mentioned Is the
decision to eonfine the energies of its
STAFF and mechanical facilities to the
printing business, which the paper
has carried on in Essex avenue, Or
ange.
The announcement created consider
able comment as the merging of the
Orange paper with the Evening Star
reduces the number of afternoon
papers with special editions for the
Oranges from three to two. The
Chronicle has been the official paper
of the cities of Orange and East Or
ange, and has also given official news
of the other Oranges.
The Chronicle has been a strong
factor in the community life of the
section west OF Newark for many
years Prior to Its establishment as
a daily paper the Chronicle was is
sued weekly Many men of promi-
nence in public affairs served periods
of apprenticeship on it as editors and

NEGRO SLAYERS
REMOVED UNDER
MILITARY GUARD
Taken to Baltimore from Ches-
tertown, Where Jail Had
Been StOrmed.

CHESTERTOWN. Md, Dec. 81
Heavily guarded by soldiers of the
Fifth Regiment, Maryland militia,
James PARKWAY and Norman Mabel.
the negroes accused of the murder of
James r. Coleman, a farmer, were
today taken aboard the State steamer
Mclean. The steamer at once sailed
for Baltimore, where the negroes will
be placed in Jail for safe keeping until
their trial is called.
The removal of the prisoners fol-
lowed closely the granting of a change
OF venue to Cecil county, where the
trial was set for March next at Elk
ton.
In granting the motion of the coun-
sci for the accused for a change of
venue Judge Constable bitterly scored
the would-be lynchers.
He said emphatically that the court
did not intend to have a mob dictate
its action. and that State troops had
been sent to Chestertown because the
court realized that change Of venue
might be asked.
The announcement of the transfer
of the cases and the removal of the
prisoners was met with mutterlngs of
anger, but the display of military ac-
hs
While the judge was talking a file
of soldiers had taken the prisoners
from the Jail and started on their
march to the wharf, but a short dis
tance away. Five minutes after their
arrival on board the steamer was on
its way to Baltimore.
Chestertown was today practically
under martial law. No person was
allowed inside the militia's lines
without q pass signed by General
Charles d. Gather, in command.
The troops were received in silence
by the few persons assembled at the
depot. Their coming was totally un-
expected, as order had been restored
since the indictment of the negroes,
who already had confessed their guilt.
The judges were apprehensive, how
ever, that there would be another out
break If the verdict should be against
the sentiment of the community. of
which a large part demanded that the
negroes be hanged. Chief Judge
Constable declared that the court
would tolerate no dictation. Justice
would be done. he said. The court did
not know any of the evidence, and
therefore could not say what penalty
would be imposed IF the evidence
is of such a nature that these men
should not be hanged" said the Judge.
1--WE want to be prepared to have the
soldiers take them away without any
demonstration"
Farmers and others from the out
lying districts began to flood into
town early for the trial, which had
been fixed to begin today. Before .
q. m. there was a good-sized crowd
at the courthouse and in the streets,
and considerable dissatisfaction was
expressed over the presence of the
troops. A heavy guard of miitiamen
was stationed about the Jail, and the
streets were policed by soldiers.
