There were calls for Secretary nay,

"This seems TTardly kindly serlvce to lie

Mr. Smith's reference was to Mrs.

Long died some months ago.

enthusiasm.
Senator Daniel made a speech of wel

The president said: "I am very glad
not only to meet the people of the city

with numlier of other genetlcmen who
sought entrance, hut the gate were
closed.
"We could not open them and you
would not. And so we departed to seek
another host, if not more hospitable, less
formidable than the one that greeted us
here. It is happy tune for me to come
to Lynchburg now the war over, no
exchno- of greeting with shot and

Miqrtly after U o clock yesieniny morn-
ng the jury reported . Judge linker had
evidently been expecting another verdict
ml was openly disappumted.
"It is impossible te me to under
nnd," he said, "how '12 Intelligent men
could have agreed upon such a verdict
fter listening to the testimony. The
cfendunt could not have chosen more
isely if he had been selecting his own
-iiresentutives and the community could
not huve mode a more unfortnnute selec-
on. This jury is discharged without
the compliment of the court."
Callahan s attorneys were not pres
ent nnd the defendant expressed ue-
re to thank the jurors in bis own be
half.
This the court refused to permit. He
said the jury did not deserve any thanks.
Two other counts still exist against
Calluhaiv and he was at once rearrested
mler these. There is doubt, however,
whether the state will bring the cases
to trial. Chief of Police Ponohue an
nounces that the $.'i,(NK) offered for the
pprchension of Patrick Crowe will be
ithdrawn. He snys it Is one thing to
rrcst the culprit nod another to convict
him. The reward of ."i(MHK offered

however, will still rcninin in force. As

Chase, with a detachment of the Twenty-
first infantry, on April 20 surprised the
camp of the insurgent (Iciicral Cullies at
Dugol, situated nine miles nurtheust of
Cariuti, in the province of La Ouna.
Cuillca wus at his camp at the time of
the American attack, but managed to
escape.
Captain Chase's force captured his ad
jutant general, five other of his stuff offi
cers, 14 men, 20 ritles. a large amount of
ammunition and stores and all the papers
and personal effects of the Filipino gen
eral. The insurgent Major elo wus
killed during the engagement, as were
Corporal Met till and Private Tipps, both
belonging to Company A of the Twenty-
first. Several columns of the American
troops continue vigorously to pursue
General Cullies, (ienernl Caillcs recent
ly offered reward of $10,(MlO for the
head of Captain Edward N. Jones, Jr.
of the Ninth infantry.
For more than a yenr post Caillcs has
commanded the insurgent forces opernt
Ing to the east of Bay Lake, not for from
Manila. He is said to be B French
hulf-caste. He has a reputation for vin-
dictivem-ss and cruelty and is one of the
two or three Filipino lenders still in the
field who have clearly ignored the ob
servance of liunorable warfare.
The society of Mcndo Pucats, whose
practice it wns to assussinate nnd bury
alive those of their countrymen who ac
cepted American sovereignty whenever
the hitter fell into their hands operated
with the cognizance, if not the support,
of Oenernl Caillcs. If C'nillcs were cap
tured it is doubtful if he could claim im
munity for past actions under the terms
of the amnesty. In January of this yenr
Caillcs offered a reward of $10 apiece
for the heads of all Americans brought
him.
SENATE SENTIMENT KNOWN
Government Now Knows an What Lines
to llraw Acceptable Cannt Treaty.
WASHINGTON, April 27 The ad
ministration has succeeded at last in se
curing a collection of opinions from the
leaders of the senate of all political par
ties upon which tn base negotiations for
a new isthmian canal treaty to replace
the Hay-Puunccfote treaty. In other
words, it is aware of the wishes of most
of the senators and the only problem be
fore the state department Is to frame
treaty that will reflect" those views, en-
luring a two-thirds vote for ratification
and yet shall be acceptable to the British
government.
If. as reported from London, the siua
qua non is a neutrality clause, otllcials
here feel thnt success on this poiunt
seems within reach.
It Is expected thnt two drafts nf a
treaty will lie framed before long, pro
ably the latter part of June, when Mr.
Hay returns from the West. It is hard
ly expected, however, thnt final result
will be atained before next autumn after
the return of Lord Panncefote from
London.

OUTRAGE BY NEGROES.
fsn Shot and Woman Harshly Treated
Near Ollphant, I'a,
rnvvn t SVtl l R ! Anril 20.
Xhe Connellsville coke region is all
itirred up aguin over the dastardly deed
of a gang of negroes who attacked Hiram
McMillan, a white man, and his wife in
I lonely house near Oliphant, and shot
Ihe man twice, probably mortully wound
ing him, and brutally assaulted the worn
in, who also is in a serioua coudition
Vein the abuse.
McMillan's house sets back from the
tigbwuy near the old historic Oliphant
furnace. McMillan Is about 40 years
lid. but his wife is quite a young woman
ind the two were alone. Suddenly the
ucgroes, iu the party belug two black
Bdinen, came from hiding and attacked
;he house. The men burst in the door,
Iragged Mrs. McMillan from ber hus
band's arms and carried her nut behind
in outbuilding, where the six men as
saulted her.
Leaving their victim prostrated, th
men gave their attention to tne rramic
nishand, who had been engaged in bat
tle with one or more of the men through
)iit this terrible ordeal. McMillan
broke from his assailants and as he dnrt-
?d back into his house the negroee, evi
lently thinking that he was going for a
un or a revolver, drew a bead on him
mid a bullet pierced his body just below
the heart. McMillan fell at his door-
itep, but before fleeing the negroes shot
It his prostrnte body, another bullet lodg-
ng in the fallen man near the kidney.
For some time after the negroes had
Ded the husband lay at his door bleeding
lml bis wife lay unconscious behind th
jutliiiilding about 50 feet away. Th
man came to herself first and found
her husband. Mrs. McMillan gave the
tlarm and immediately a posse wa or
ganized to hunt down the negroes.
The posse did not lose much time in
getting started over the hills and in a
couple of hours came across Wesley
Lewis, one of the supposed assailants,
who thought he would elude the officer
by hilling in some bushes. He wns hand-
ruffiil nnd brought under guard to the
Fayette county jail, where he is now be
hind tlie bars. Bessie Wares and Lizzie
Jones, the two colored women impli
cated in the rioting, were also locked
up in Uniontonn. In the meantime the
word had spread throughout all of Fay
ette county and a great number of In
furiated whites are now scouring the
foothills of the Allcghanic in the hope
nf finding the other five negroes.
Mrs. McMlllnn is at her home and has
suffered severely from shock and brutal
treatment. Her friends and relntives
swear vengeance swift and terrible on
the negroes if they con get them from the
officers.
GRAVE DIGGERS ON STRIKE
New Men Can't Be Secured In a Philadel
phia Cemetery Authorities Fussled.
PHILADELPHIA, April 20.-A pecu
liar condition of affairs at Holy Cross
cemetery is bothering Archbishop Ryan
ml other dignitaries of the Roman Cath
olic church here. For a long time the
grave diggers have been dissatisfied with
their pay, a dollar a day, but they took
do aetion until a week ago when one or
their number wns discharged.
They asked that he be re-employed, but
the superintendent of the burial ground
refused. They then demanded an in
crease of a dollar a week In their
wages, which was also refused, nnd they
refused to go to work. It was thought
thnt it would be easy to secure other
men, but thus far it has been impossible
and now the vault is so crowded that it
rill be impossible to get any more bodies
in it
