CONDITION OF VICTIMS Evening Star Bureau, No. 529 King street, Bell Telephone, No. 106, ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 23, 1897. Joseph MeCoy, colored, about twenty-one years of age, the self confessed ravisher of little Annie Lacey, daughter of Mr. Tobe Lacey. was lynched by a mob of 500 peo- ple about 1:30 o'clock this morning, after a desperate fight with the officers on duty at police headquarters, in charge of Chief Webster and Lieutenant Smith, and his body is now at Demain’s undertaking -es- tablishment. McCoy was arrested by Lieutenant Smith about 6:50 o'clock. From what can be learned of the affair it appears that Mr. Lacey's little daughter, Annie, had been suffering with pains for several days past, ‘but would not, it is supposed through fear of McCoy, tell the family what caused the pain, so Mr. Lacey decided to have Dr. M. W. O’Brien, the family physician, ex- amine his little daughter. They repairea to the doctcr’s office about 6 o'clock, and Dr. O’Brien had no sooner seen the case than he told what caused it. The little girl was pressed to tell who had done the fiendish deed, and it was WS The Wrecked Station House. then found out for the first time that Mc- Coy had committed the heinous offense of rape. Mr. Lacey, with Mr. John Nelson, started toward home to look for the negro, stating at the same time that he would kill him on sight. Mr. Nelson, it is said, reported the matter to Lieut. Smith, and that officer hastily procured a buggy and drove to Mr. Lacey's home, on South Washington street, where McCoy was em- ployed, and found him engaged in cutting wood. He asked for Mr. Lacey, and, find- ing that he had not reached home, he placed McCoy under arrest, and took him to police headquarters, where: he was placed in the cell occupied but a few nights ago by James Lewis, the negro ravisher of Mrs. Reidel, who was tried at Fairfax Court House today. He Confessed. After he had been in the cell a short while Lieut. Smith tried to get him to talk. At first he denied everything, but after a little persuasion he confessed the whole truth, telling where and how he had done the foul deed. He made this same confession in the presence of Commonwealth Attorney Marbury and several newspaper men, after which no one was allowed to see him. The news of the arrest spread like wildfire, and it was bul a few minutes before small knots of people were standing on the street corners discussing the matter, and threats ef lynching were heard on all sides, though it was believed that they would never be carried out. About 10 o'clock, however, things began to take on a more serious aspect. A large crowd had congregated in front of police headquarters, and Lieutenant Smith decided to put on a larger force at headquarters, so as to assist the station keepers. The crowd, however, moved off when Lieutenant Smith appeared at the door and stated in positive terms that he RY a ay Oca A sh ay == > 22 The Cell Door. snd fis men were sworn officers and in- tended to do their full duty In protecting th® prisoner, whom the law had placed in usirgcbarge. “Gentlemen,” he said, “let the law take {ts course. If the negro is guilty he will be hung all right. Now go home and be quiet. For God's sake don’t make us have to sheot scme of you.”. This had a temporary quieting effect. But at 12 o'clock the mob, which by this time had reached between 60) and 700 people, was back in front of headquarters demanding admission, which was, of course, denied them. The Station Stoned. This made them indignant and one among the number stepped in front and spcke to them passionately for a few minutes, cali- ing on them “to protect their daughters and sisters.” “Follow me,” he said. With that remark the doors were broken open with a twenty-foot beam.. The officers on duty inside were ready for m, and such a fusillade of shots was never heard in this city. The whooting made the most of the crowd lose courage and three only got all the way in. The officers ran out on the street and the crowd ¢'zpersed rapidly. which were unhurt were shut, a barricade was put up ard ail made ready for a sec- ond attack if it should come.

A second area of high pressure covers the northern rocky mountain plateau. The pressure is low from the upper lake region southwest- ward to Texas, with a feeble storm center over Lake Superior and a second center in Kansas. High winds continue on the southern Rocky mountain slope. The barometer has fallen in the Atlantic, the gulf and the Pacific coast states; it has risen in the upper Mississippi and the Mis- souri valleys and on the northern Rocky mountain plateau. The temperature is rising slowly in ..ew England and the middle Atlantic states, and on the southern Rocky mountain slope, but it has remained stationary in the other districts.

The temperature will continue to rise slowly in New England and the middle At- lantic states, and remain about stationary in the other districts. crowd had only gotten out of sight of head- quarters to organize for another attack, which proved successful. It was not long after 1 o'clock when the howling mob, which now had reached near the thousar-] mark, was heard approaching headq ters, and it could be seen that they meant business. They reached the door, an again demanded the negro. On being fused they commenced to batter in the windows and door with axes, sledges, crow- bars, picks and every conceivable tool. it was but the work of a few minutes to get inside, and here they faced Lieut. Smith, with Officers Knight, Lyles, Davis, Wilkin- son, Atkinson and Constable Webster, all of whem fought manfully to protect the in which the negro was confined. men grabbed each of the officers, and it was evidently their intention to get the officers out of the way first, for they were ell bound and taken to the street. While this was going on another part of the mob bad broken in the cell room door and reached the cell in which McCoy was supposed to be confined. In an instant the lccks were snicshed off and hasps torn aside. When they looked in they saw no one, when one of the officers told’ them the man was upstairs, intending if possible to sneak him out the back way. Dragged Out. The mob started up the steps, but some one saw the negro crouching in a corner of the cell hiding. A shout was raised and they soon had him and a rope around his neck, ail the while the officers making a Cesperate fight to save him. The negro begged piteously, but it was of no avail. They dragged him to the street, followed by the officers, who were trying to recapiure him. They had to give up the struggle, however, they were so great- ly outnumbered. When the mob got him in front of the Braddock House they held @ consultation as to where they should harg him,’and it would have been worth a man's life to attempt to stop the now frenzied mob. They carried him down Cameron street on the run, and for a mo- ment. it was thought that he had_es- caped, and another how! was setup. When the corner of Lee street was reached they spied ar old fron gas lamp post, to whicn they concluded he should hang. It was but the work of a moment to get the rope over the top, and in less time than it takes to write he was hanging in mid-air. A number of the mob knocked him senseless before he had been hanging a minute, and blood gushed from his nose and mouth. The repe slipped after he had been hang- ing about ten minutes and he fell to the ground lifeless. The crowd hung around for some time, and about 2 o'clock dis- persed quietly. The military alarm was rung when the trouble commenced, and about sixteen members of the Alexandria Light Infan- try, with Lieut. Marbury, appeared at the armory, but it was tco late to be of serv- ice. The damage had been done. The frorit of police headquarters is a total wreck, and will have to be refitted. The Crime. ‘The rape was committed in a stable back of Mr. Lacey’s house, on South Washington etreet, about fifty yards from the corpora- tion line in Fairfax county, just about op- Fosite the Roman Catholic cemetery. It is said that McCoy also attempted the same tking with a younger daughter of Mr. Lacey. McCoy was employed by Mr. Lacey end did not bear an unsavory record with the police. He told the story of his crime “pparently without feeling, and did ‘not seem to realize the seriousness of his posi- tion in the least. He slept most of the evening up to 12 o'clock, when the first attack was made on headquarters, and nest to sleep again when all had quieted jcwn. Chief Webster was knocked down and roughly handled by the mob as he attempt- ed to disperse them, and Officers Atkinson and Knight quite badly hurt. No other in- juries of a serious nature were reported. Coroner Purvis was notified and appeared on the scene about 2:30 o'clock. He viewed the remains and ordered. them taken to Deniaine’s undertaking establishment. The crowd was a determined one when the second attack was made, and they were so enraged at the failure of the first attack that nothing under the sun could have stopped them. It is believed that many had boosted up their courage by the use of stimulants. ‘The law-abiding and thoughtful people of the city very much deplore this hasty ac- tion, as they feel that McCoy would have When the| gotten the full penalty of the law had he fynching, which is the first that The |; ing, w! e ever occurred in Alexandria, has been the one subject of conversation on the streets to- day, and while many seem to think that McCoy deserved his fate, still at the same time they say ft would have been beiter for the community had the law been allow- ed to take its course.
