DISPATCH. SUNDAY, LICie iD SHOT, SummarT Vengeance of a Mob on Colored Prisoner 311 Saslmlle Jail. A BATTLE FOR THE VICTIM in Which at Least Two White Men deceived Fatal Wounds. A BRIDGE USED AS A GALLOWS, And the Ewaylnjr Bodj Fiddled TVith Enllets From Winchesters. TJ1E MAX SENT TO JOIN HIS BROTHER lrrnjit. telegram to tiie disfatch. Nashville, April 30. The attempted lynching of Eph Grizzard, colored, last night by citizens, which was prevented by the bravery of the officer' in charge of the jail, culminated this afternoon in a success ful carrying out of the original purpose, and the negro .as hanged from the bridge over the Cumberland river. Sot content with hanging mm, the vigilantes riddled the body with bullets as it dangled at the end ot a. rope. Eealizmg the futility of further effort to get at the prisoner this morning the mob dispersed about 4 o'clock, vowing to return i acrain with reinforcements. In the fuilade which Mas exchanged between the barri caded officers and the mob last night it has developed that two of the latter were mor tally wounded. They were Allen B. Guthrie and Clurles Kear, two young men of this place, and both are now lying at the point of death in the City Hospital. Guthrie is shot through the left lung, while Kear is suffering troma wound in the abdomen. A Determined Attack on the Jail. After being repulsed last night te mob returned with reinforcements and made another assault upon the jail. Chief of Police Clack had turned in the riot alarm in the meantime, and had the entire police on hand to resist the attack, which gave every indication of being a bloody one. After repeated and unsuccessful efforts to eflcet an entrance, the mob commerced firing, which was promptly returned by the officers, v ith the above results. The sight of blood seemed to have a de moralizing effect upon the mob, and there was a cessation ol ti.rther hostilities. Taking ; advantage ot this opportunity to address the mob, Governor John P. Buchanan spoke to them and promise ! that Grizzard should have a speedy trial, and, if found guilty, would be punished to the full extent of tfie law, wli:ch is death. The Governor assured the moa that a continuation of the attack would result in bloodshed, and pleaded with them to alio-- the law to take its course. The mob finally agreed to disperse, provided the men arretted in thj former at tack were released. This was readily done, ind the mob disbanded. ot 1o Br Foiled a Second Tim?. The dawn, however, brought news of the organization of another and stronger mob, ard the city has been in a high state of ex citement. Throughout the day the streets in the vicinity of the jail have been jammed with people, and the arrival of the mob was expected at any hour. In anticipation ot a recurrence of last night's scenes. Governor Buchanan issued the following proclamation: ExrorTivE SlAsrow. State or Teessee, Xasuvilix, Aptil 30, 189i To All ijiw-.VUaiDK Citliens: Til- effoit last night to force the Jafl oM x. iu-on count nas orougnt upon tin community- a Fail state of affairs. While the crime committed by the prisoner Is the bljc.est known in the calendar of crimes, I trust wise cou.isel will prevail to let the law i deal out a just punishment to the flend. I p.edjre my countrymen that every effort in rnv power -lull be u-ed to bring tho guilty ones to speel justice. I w ill ieave nothing undone to have the law executed. Trust mo and await un action. Jo. P. BccHASAs, Governor. At 12 o'clock to-day th crowds around the jail began to grow denser, and the threatene ! attack was icared at any mo ment. Grizzard was attired in a dress, preparatory to bing spirited awav to a place of safety. Before this attcmpt"at es cape conld be executed the long-cxneeted assault ocenrred. The mob was much more orderly and better organized than on the previous night, and everything was con ducted in a business-like manner. Tlie Keys Demanded and Secured. A committee ot three was appointed to wait upou Jailer James Willis and demand the keys. Seeing the utter nsclessness of further resistance the jailer yielded up the key's Meannliilc, the men on the outside had crowded up to the jail, and at intervals during the wait ot ten minutes, shouts arose to cheer on those who had gone within. Thousands of spectators crowded to suffoca tion eer avenue leading towarl the jail, bui they kept at a respectful distance irom the inol. of about 1.U00 men which crowded up again-t the hung onto the iron bars in front ot the jail. Then the committee of three appeared, and between them was the black head ot Eph Grizzjrd. Xot a shot had been fired, and no sound save intcrHten' cheering had been made, but at th- sight of the black flend, mob and spectators alike cheered ' tiutil the sound rau.t have been hca.-d in all farts of the citv. A wi'd rush was then made for the sijuarc, those about the prisoner slap ping his head with open paims, and Eph crving "Quit hitting, and I'll go." From the square the mob turned into the bridge. From the time the negro was first brought from the jail until he was hanged the cheering necr ceased. Dropped From a Big Bridge. The point where the drop was made is a little less than half way across the bridge, on the down-river side. A hemp rope three-quarters of an inch thick was quickly twisted into a hangman's knot and jerked about the negro's head. The other end was t ieu tied. Several knives were plunged into the negro's head, and Eph Grizzard was thrown into space. The drop was IS feet, but the neck seemed not to have been broken, as the negro's hands clutched the iii.derbrace, but no sooner was this noticed 3v the hundreds of heads leaning over the jailing, than those on the bridge having "Winchester r.fles began firing iuto the body y leaning far out o cr the water. Even in is the mob was deliberate, as not a shot was fired until .i fisherman on the river bank was warned to get out of the way.

A BLOODY OVERCOAT MAKKS A SEW 1INK IN TUX EVIDENCE AGAINST SCUDDER. Big Wife Tailed In an Attempt to Smuggle It Out or Jjll-Goro In the Pocket "Where a 'Weapon Had rrobably Been Thrust. Chicago, April 30. The State official! express the belief that they have discov ered a new and sensational piece of evi dence in connection with the charge against Pr. Henry Martyn Scudder of murdering his mother-in-law, Mrs. Elizabeth M. Par ker Bunion. Large blood spots, it is said, had been discovered-in one of the overcoat pockets of the arcused, a fact upon which the prosecution proposes to build the theory that it contained the weapon with which the murder was committed. To-day Mrs. Dr. Scudder made an un successful attempt to take the coat from the county jail where the accused is confined. She told Jailer atoms that her little boy would soon be present to carry away her husband's soiled clothing. The boy pre sented himself in due time and was bearing away a cumbersome bundle. He succeeded in passing one turnkey, was about to walk from the outer gate when he was brought to a halt by the guardian who declared he would have to examine the bundle. The mother, who had in the meantime been holding a conversation with her hus band, appeared on the scene. She first threatened, then begged and pleaded that the boy be allowed to pass out, but without avail. She stuck to'the bundle, however, till it was forcibly removed by two men. Then she became violent and again she threatened. The bundle was torn open, and in a quantity of underclothing was the heavy overcoat. Dr. Spray, who had been attend ing the alleged murderer on behalf of the State, discovered the blood spots some time ago, and therefore, the coat was ordered to be detained to be used in evidence at the trial. A HUGE STBIKE IK PBOSPECT. ir Panhandle Machinists Walk Out, Penn sylvania Employes May Follow. Chicago, April 30. Before the conven tion of the International Association of Machinists adjourns next week action may be taken that will result in a strike of ma chinists on the Panhandle Railroad. If a strike is ordered, between 1,500 and 2,000 machinists along the entire line will go out. The International Association, is now en deavoring to induce the boilermakcrs and other ironworkers whose trades are kindred to that of machinists, to organize lodges and join the association, and if success attends the efiorts,,the boilermakers and repairers on the Panhandle will be included in the strike. As the Panhandle is controlled by the Pennsylvania Railroad.it is no im possible that the strike will extend to that line also, as the alleged grievances of the Panhandle men are also those of the work ers on the Pennsylvania. The whole situation was discussed in a preliminary way at the session of the Executive Board at the Grand Pacific to day. The sentiment of the members of the board was almost unanimous in favor of a strike, and recommendations in accordance with the views of the board will, it is said, be made to the convention which meets here Monday morning. "It is the 'piece system which the machinists object to," said James O'Connell, a member of the Executive Board. "It has resulted in the men doing, for practically the same money, work in 10 hours which formerly took 24 hours. The last reduction in prices for piece work occurred at Indianapolis, and it broke the camel's back." WAKTS TO FIND HIS WIF2. An Assyrian Asks the Aid of the Folice to rind Her. Joseph George Bassett, an Assyrian, called at the Department of Public Safety yesterday afternoon, and asked the aid of the officers in finding his wife. The man stated that his wife came to this country three years ago and located in this city, but that last January she moved away, and is supposed to be living in one of the towns about Pittsburg. The woman is 21 years Qld, has brown hair and eyes. She has a scar on her forehead and a crooked index finger on the right hand. "WILL GO A-VISITIHG.

The meeting of citizens of the Thirty-first and Thirty-second wards did not materialize last night to the extent that was expected. A few persons, supposing there would be a meeting, gathered at the schoolhouse, but they only talked over the various griev ances in a general way and took no action. It is likely a later meeting will be arranged for. perhaps next Saturday, when some de finite action on various questions is ex pected to be taken. Rednctlon of Local RRlIroad Fans.

France, Italy and Switzerland Hnnting Sown the Anarchists. THIS WIUi BE A DAI OP GREAT ANXIETY IcorTmonT, us, by n. t. associated rttESS.l Berlin,' April 30. The latest reports from all the industrial centers in Germany, show that there is every prospect of a peace ful May Day. The authorities, however, have taken every possible precaution to nip in the bud any attempt to create disturb ances. There will be no open display of force, but police will be centered at every important point, ready to act on the first indication of disorder. Demonstrations everywhere have been ar ranged to take a festive character. Enor mous excursions to the country will be made from evorylarge town. The fetes In Berlin will be prolonged to early Monday morning. They include concerts, chorus singing and fireworks. The Socialists have engaged 60 beer houses, at which the landlords have under taken to engage only Socialist waiters. The leading Socialists absolutely oppose any illegal action. They declare that if the Anarchists attempt to create disorder, tho Socialists will be the first to deliver them to the police. Socialists' Intentions Are PencefhL Liebkneeht, in an interview, says that if there are any disturbances, they will be en tirely due to agents provocaturers. The Socialists, he says, do not intend to gratify their enemies by acts of violence. The sec tion of Independent Socialists have decided to hold a separate demonstration. They have composed a new version of the Mar seillaise, which is applicable to May Day. It will be sung at all their meetings. Only at Dusseldorf, Hamburg and Lu beck, will processions be allowed. At Hamburg the procession will include 15,000 men. The Socialists declare that the arrests of Anarchists in Berlin during the week were simply police farces. In a majority of cases where genuine arrests were made the men were soon released for want of evi dence. Since the explosions in Paris, the regula tions regarding the entry into the Berlin Schloss show increased stringency. Hence forth nobody will be admitted without a special pass. Even then they will be ac companied to the end of their destination by a soldier. Th- Kaiser Oflrnds the Worklnemfin, The "Emperor's visit to' Baron Stnmm has given fresh umbrage to worklngmen He haranged Baron Stumin's workmen, and be .stowed the highest eulogies upon the fac tories and tne regulations for the workmen. He declared they were models that all Ger many ought to imitate. The speech was coldiy received, as Baron Stumm's arbi trary treatment of his employes and his pitiless discharge of any man suspected of socialistio views is notorious, and has gained for him the sobriquet of "King Stumm." The grand banqnet that he gave the Emperor is the talk of the newspapers. It cost over 20,000 mark". At a late hour last night the police made a descent upon a place where they had learned the Socialists had set up a plant for printing papers containing articles ot a se ditious and strongly inflammatory charac ter. The officers surrounded the building and pounced down upon the men engaged in preparing the publications before a chance was given for an alarm. The raiders seized a quantity of type and a number ot manuscripts of articles which had been written for publication on May Day in a special issue of an organ of the Socialist party. 1HDTJSTEIAL PEACE IN SIGHT. The Dnrham''Miiers' Strike In England Is Partly Declared Off. London, April 30. The backbone of the disastrous strike in Durham has - been broken by the action of the miners, and there is a prospect, though slight, that the trouble will soon be ended. The miners have voted in favor of all the men who are not connected with pits owned by members of the Mine Owners' Association resuming work. Twelve thousand men will thus be enabled to go back to work at once. The miners connected with the Mine Owners' Association's pits will continue the strike, but it is thought with the pits of other owners working, the association owners will effect some compromise (vith their men. The partial resumption of work will en able many iron works and factories that were shut down because of the scarcity ot fuel, to start up again. HOME MAT BE TUBBUXEHT. Anarchists Propose to Honor a Rioter's Grave, but Io!lc Say They Shan't. Home, April 30. The Anarchists of this city propose to-morrow to visit the grave of Piscitelli, one of their number, who waj shot and killed by the troops in the rioting in the Piazza Santa Croce last May Day. They will not be allowed to carry out their intention, however, for the authorities have given orders that the cemetery in which Piscitelli is buried be closed until Tuesday. Great excitement was caused to-day by the announcement that an attempt had been made after midnight to blow up the palace of Prince Massimo, one of the most ancient houses of Italy. The only injury was to the "vestibule and to sonie servants, who were not latally hurt. THE ANAECHIST HUHT IN PABIS. Police Hope the Reds Are Abont Weeded Ont, and Alarm I Subsiding. Paths, April 30. The police are still scouring the city and suburbs in search tif Anarchists, and last night and this morning they made a number of arrests how many is not exactly known, but it is thought by to-night the greater part of the dangeroui Anaichists will be locked up. The police and military precautions will not be re laxed. Many persons who had made arrange ments to leave the city to-day to remain away May Day, have changed their minds and will now remain at home. Looking Out lor Ked Flags In Chlcaco. "Chicago, April 30. Mayor "Washburn, Chief of Police McLaughrey and the police inspectors, together with Assistant Chief Hubbard, held a conference to-day regard ing precautions against a possible outbreak during to-morrow's labor demonstration. Mayor Washburn said he did not anticipate any violent outbreak, yet both he and the Chief of Police are determined to leave no possible chance for any outbreak to gain unchecked headway. The determination to suppress exhibitions of the red flag was re affirmed. Ilelglnm Seems to Be PeaceluL Brussels, April 30. Very general preparations have been made throughout Belgium for the celebration of May Day. Eeports from the various industrial centers ot the country indicate that the labor.or ganizations.will devote the day to meetings, parades, etc These, it is believed, will be 'of an entirely peaceful nature. In most places no special measures have been taken by the police. A Festival Occasion in London. BT CABLE TO TTOt DI5FATCH. 4 LONDON, - -April - 30.

HT SPAIN AHD P0BTUGAL The Military Under" Arms With Orders to Act on the Least Disorder. Madrid, April 30. Tne latest new from the Spanish provinces is that the workmen, having been prohibited from en gaging in outdoor demonstrations to-morrow, have resolved to hold indoor meetings. The military is to be under arms through out the principal districts of the kingdom. The Minister of War has sent out circulars instructing military commanders not to hes itate to assume supreme command, if neces sity, arises without'waiting tojefer to civil authorities for acquiescence. Detachments of civil guards will protect telegraph lines. Many societies objectionable to the authori ties have been dissolved in Anarchist cen ters. In addition there have been seized procla mations urging workmen to pursue the at tainment of their ideals through strikes and by other forcible means. The greatest pre cautions have been taked "in Barcelona. The French Anarchist, Blondelj who is be lieved to have been a companion of Kava chol? was arrested there to-night Advices received from Lisbon are to the effect that the troops are confined to the barracks and have received'orders to be ready at the first warning to act. The news from Oporto is that the police are closely scrutinizing all the frontier trains, and that the passengers are being subjected to a strict watch. The officers have been gi-en instructions to ar rest any refugee Anarchpsts whom they may encounter. No disorders are expected to occur in the city, but the authorities have, nevertheless, adopted every precaution. ATTABCHISTS IN SWITZERLAND. A Bomb Is Exploded for Revenge In a Pre fect's Mother's Dwelling. Berne, April 30. Switzerland has been comparatively free from dynamite outrages, due, perhaps., not to any particular liking for the Government, bat to the fact that many exiled Anarchists and Socialists find a refuge here. The authorities in the various industrial centers have been taking measures to prevent any disturbances on May Day, which will be observed as a holi day by all the worklngmen of the country. Many artisans and factory hands find em ployment in Lausanne and, of course, the agitators have sought to inoculate them with the poison of anarchy and socialism. It was thought the workingmen would at tempt .to make some sort of an illegal dent onstration, though it was scarcely believed there wonld be any rioting, and the prefect or ponce determined mat every preparation should be made to suppress any violation of the law by the cele brants. By his action he incurred the enmitv of the Anarchists, who, with their usual cowardly instincts, determined to inflict vicarious punishment upon him. The victim selected was the prefect's mother. In some manner a dynamite bomb was placed in her house. The bomb ex ploded, fortunately without harming any of the occupants of the house, but the build ing was very badly damaged. Three French and Italian Anarchists have been arrested on suspicion. THE SCOTCH-IBISHMEN. Two Pennsylvania Orators Add Interest to Their Proceedings. ATLANTA, April 30. The third day's session of the Scotch-Irish Congress was largely attended. The feature of the morn ing session was an address by Bev. Dr. J. Bryson, of Huntsville, Ala., on "Scotch Irish Inventors." The doctor devoted his time to scketching the careers of Bobert Fulton, Prof. Samuel F. B. Morse and Cyrns H.

A-FIGHT-F0R MANY GOOD CITIZENS Waged by Mr. IHtt and Aided by Qnite a dumber of the Democrats. SOME SARCASM. IN THE HOUSE DEBATE Washington, April 3a Although Representative Hitt, of Illinois, was not successfnl( in restoring the salary of the Minister to Venezuela, by clever tactics he succeeded to-day in restoring to Denmark her separate mission. He did this by allow ing the Democrats from the Northwest, where the Scandinavians constitute a large part of the population, to do most of the talking. The amendment was proposed by a Republican, Mr. Post, of Jllinois, and was warmly advocated by him, but its im pressive strongth came from the Demo crats. Mr. Bdtler, of Iowa, who had pre pared a similar amendment, led the fight, and so many other Democrats followed his lend that Mr. Blount thought it politic to yield gracefully, and surrendered without a voting struggle. Then the New Orleans-Italy imbroglio presented itself through the diplomatic emergency appropriation. The President was subjected to much adverse criticism for his action in paying the Italian indemnity out of the emergency fund, but as the emer gency fund is in the nature of a secret serv ice appropriation, it cannot be definitely stated how it is expended. An amendment made by Mr. Chipman, of Michigan, pro hibiting the use of this money in settlement of claims ot foreign countries, was passed, over. An Excellent Day for the Races. This was an ideal day for the races. There were not 100 members present when the Speaker called the House to order at noon. The House, by unanimous consent, at once went into committee of the whole, Mr. Oates, of Alabama, in the chair, on tho diplomatic and consular appropriation bill the pending amendmentbeing that offered by Mr. Hitt, of Illinois, restoring to $8,600 trie salary of the Minister to Venezuela, which the bill proposed to reduce to $5,000. The bill was lost 19 to 149. Mr. Post, of Illinois, offered an amend ment restoring Denmark as a separate mis sion, and fixing the salary of tne Minister at $7,500. Mr. Post advocated his amend ment, and referred to the industry and thrift of the Scandinavian-American citi zens, Mr. Butler, of Iowa, supported the nron- osition, and read a few remarks which Mr. Bryan, of Nebraska who was absent had intended to deliver in its support. Mr. Blount opposed the amendment Mr. Lynch, of Wisconsin, eulogized our Scandinavian c ,izens, and said lie could see no reason why the Democratic House should begin economizing by reducing the foreign service. Tltn Scandinavians Good Citizens. Mr. Bushnell, of Wisconsin, spoke en thhsiastjcally of the patriotism, sobriety aim industry of the Scandinavian race, and objected to depriving. Denmark of a separ ate mission. Mr. Hitt, in favoring the amendment, said'it wonld be unfortunate at this time for the United States to dispense with its mission to Denmark. The United States had invited Denmark to exhibit at the World's Fair, and Denmark had responded to that invitation in a liberal and hearty spirit. In proportion to its population Denmark had made a larger appropriation than any other country in the world. Sir. Blount asked unanimous consent that debate on the amendment be considered as closed. Mr." Camming, of New York, vehement ly objected, whereupon Mr. Blount moved that the committee rise for the purpose of closing debate. "That is on the line with the spirit of the committee that drew this bill, said Mr. Cummingc indignantly. "The committee has a spirit as lofty as that of the gentleman," responded Mr. Blount warmly. "And one far more parsimonious and mean," retorted Mr. Cummings. "The gentleman is often in that attitude to the majority," was Mr. Blount's re joinder. Not the Wny to Hasten Stutters. Finally Mr. Blount withdrew his motion, stating that his'only object in making it was to facilitate action on the bill. Mr. Cummings, being accorded the floor, said he would vote fcr the amendment. He wanted to rebuke this House for a spirit of parsimony which was exhibited in the en deavor to'consolidate the Danish and Swed ish missions. In the Fifty-first Congress there were just as many members Scandi navian born a there were members born in Ireland and Germany. This bill, so far as it concerned theie nations, was an insult to 2.000,000 of our Scandinavian citizens. The Committee on Foreign Affairs had done injustice not only to the peo ple of Denmark, whose nation was monarchical, but to .our sister republics of South America.' Again he wanted to rebuke this parsimony. It meant really, virtually, legislation in favor of the rich and against the poor (applause on the Republican side), for by reducing the salaries of ministers and consuls the of fices were placed in the hands of the pluto crats and taken from the hands of the edu cated, honest laboring or professional man. He appealed to the House not to place this Government in a position where it wonld be regarded by all countries as the one national miser of trie world. (Applause.) Blount's Opposition Withdrawn. Mr. Blount said, as it seemed that there was a strong disposition on the part of the members to retain Denmark as a separate mission, he would not press his opposition to'the amendment. The amendment was adopted. Mr. Blount offered an amendment reduc ing from $8o,000 to $60,000" the appropria tion for meeting unforeseen emergencies arising in the diplomatic and consular serv ice. The discussion which arose upon the amendment brought the Italian question to the fore through criticisms made upon the payment of the Italian indemnity out of the emergency fund. Mr, Breckinridge, of Kentucky, and Mr. McMillin criticised the President for com mitting the Government to the doctrine that for a riot in a State the United States was responsible, anil tor paving indemnity out of a tund never intended for the purpose. Mr. Hitt defended the President Mr. Chipman, of Michigan,' ofiered a pro viso that no part of the sum appropriated as an emergency tund shall be paid to any power in settlement of any claim against the 'United States. No action was taken on Mr. Chipman's proviso, and the committee rose and the House adjourned. TEE PUBLIC DEBT GR0WIHG. An Addition or S4,00O,0GO Ilado to It Daring April. Washington, April 30. The public debt statement to be issued Monday will show a cash balance of $129,000,000, a de crease of nearly $4,000,000 since April L This decrease is due to the heavy disburse ments during the month, and .the compara tively light receipts. The increase in" the expenditures was principally the effect 'of pensions and, interest on bonds. The public ,debt, less cash in the Treas ury, is therefore nearly $4,000,000 more than it was April L S" Retaliation for Canadians. Washikqtoit, April 30.

YELLOWSTONE PARK LEASES Again Being Investigated by Congres sional Committee V Block or Stoek TOas Lnld Aside for Bnssell Harrison The Son ot the President Said He Didn't . Like It . Washington, April 30. The question of Yellowstone Park leases was again inves tigated by the House Public Lands Com mittee this morning, E. C. Waters, of Mon tanta, for four years manager of the Yellow stone Park Association, testifying. A let ter was produced and read to the committee bv him, which was addressed to F. F. Oakes, of St Louis, and was in substance as follows: Tho party to whom the $5,000 -worth of Yellowstone Parle Association stock is to go, when paid for in dividends. Is B. C. Kerenn, of St. Louis. Will von please have Mr. Gib son, or the proner person, notify him of the situation, namely, thit the amount is hold by order of the directors! My friend will probably explain to him as fully as he de sires. A member of the committee asked wit ness to whom the term "my friend" re ferred, and witness replied that it was his lawyer. Witness was again asked to tell why the $5,000 of stock was so promised and for what purpose. In answer Mr. Waters said he had come to Washington to secure eertain leases from the then Secre tary of the Interior, Mr. Vilas, but had ac complished nothing, and upon seeing that he could not get anything done he said to Oakes that when another administration came in he could get the matter through. He acknowledged an acquaintance with Kussell Harrison, and said that at the time he thought he might intercede in thematter and help him to get the things fixed up. Upon close questioning by a member of the committee, witness said that $5,000 of stock was intended for Bussell Harrison, bnt that neither he (Harrison) nor .Kerens knew anything about it Mr. Harrison however, was to give his aid purely lor the public good, and did not know the stock was set aside for him until last spring, when he had been told so. Mr. Waters further said that he had never promised Bussell Harrison the stock for his influence, and when he was told of it, Mr. Harrison appeared very much em barrassed, and said he would not have the matter done lor anything. Mr. Harrison told him, said Waters, that he would see Secretary Noble and lay the matter before him, bnt whether that was ever done he did not know, as Mr. Gibson had come on to Washington to attend to the matter, and stayed until it was con cluded. The committee will continue the investigation Monday. 0PII05 PEOPLE HAED AT "W0SK. They Think They Can Easily Snook Ont the Hatch IMIL Washington, April 30. SptctaL The opponents of the Hatch anti-option bill are organizing with the same determination that characterized the anti-silver men in their fight against the Bland bill Bepre sentative Bayn6r, of Maryland, who is re garded as one of the best lawyers in the House, says he ha examined the Hatch bill thoroughly, and is propared to show that it is unconstitutional. Its passage means the closing of ail the stock exchanges in the country and the ruination of large business interests. In spite of the fact that the bill comes from the Committee on Agriculture with a unanimous report, there is a large element in the House opposed to it, and a stubborn fight may be expected when the bill is called up. It is the intention of Mr. Hatch to try and call the bill up early next week, but the outlook for it is not promising, in view of the fact that several general appro priation bills are now ready for considera tion and may be called up any day.

A MYSTERY OS TRIAL Pipes, of Waynesbnrir, to Answer for Shooting a Neighbor Dead. BOTH PARTIES ABE PROMINENT. The Yictim Was Either a Thief or a Great Mistake, Was Made. NEWSY NOTES FE0M NEARBY TOWNS ! SPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TOE DIRPATCII.1 "Waynesbubq. April SO. The special term of court set for the trial of W. S. Pipes for the killing of Peter Huffman, be gins on Monday. Owine to the standing and prominence of both parties, it will ex cite nnnsnil interest. On the night of August 22, between 11 and 12, Mr. Pipes, who had retired, heard a disturbance among his chickens, and, going to the window, saw a light in his stable. He started for the stable. As he approached by an alley he saw a man ex amining his harness by the light of a match. On being discovered, the man droppd it, sprang out and dealt Mr. Pipes a blow. A scuffle followed, in which Mr. Pipes received several scratches and bruises. The man then ra-i ont of the alley. Mr. Pipe fired his revolver "to fritrhten him, and called upon him to halt. He ran on, and Mr. Pipes followed. Upon ap proaching a street light the man made a motion as if to draw a revolver from his back pocket. Pipes believing his life in danger, fired a second shot. The man ran a few stepi, then fell. Pipes, seeing he had shot the fugitive, ran to him, and taking him in his arms, asked who he was, but received no answer. He immediately aroused the neighbors, tellitig them he thought he had killed a man. He also ran for a doctor, and also to the Sher iff's residence. Upon the arrival ot tho doctor the man was pronounced dead and identified as Peter Huffman, a respected young farmhand of Franklin township. Young Huffman had borne a good reputa- tion and his friends asserted that a mistake was made. Mr. Pipes is a jeweler in this place, where he has been in business 14 years. He is a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Mr. Pipes is a brother of Captain J. M. Pipe, doorkeeper of the United States Senate and Commander of the Department of the Potomac, Grand Array of the Republic. A startling development happened at the funeral. As the procession parsed through town the harness which had been stolen from Mr. Pipes were recognized on a horse. It was found in the possession of George Orndoff, son-in-law of the man with whom Huffman had been employed as a farm hand. The harness was recovered and identified by the maker and also by Mr. Pipes. Mr. Orndoff had gotten the harness from Huffman a few weeks before trading a sleigh for them. Huffman had said he got the harness from Scott, but the latter claims he never had them in his possession. The Chlcora Postofflce Robbed. Chicora, April 30.
