TO ENFORCE LAW ALABAMA. AUTHORITIES WILL COMPEL RAILROADS TO OBEY LAW. New York, Aug. 7.—One of the most brutal of recent crimes against women and children was yesterday charged against Lucca Fontza, who was locked up at New Brighton, Staten Island, ac- cused of assaulting Antoinetto Taluci, the two-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Pasquale Taluci of New Brighton. Fontza and Taluci are both laborers employed at the King plaster mills in New Brighton, and Fontza boarded with the Talucis. Fontza was left with the little child yesterday afternoon while Mrs. Taluci went,shopping. The mother had not gone far from the house when the child’s screams brought her back. When he saw Mrs. Taluci Fontza rushed from the house, Mrs. Taluci following him. Her cries brought out the neighbors and soon a mob was fol- lowing the fleeing Italian down the street. $ Police Fight the Mob. The pursuers soon overtook the man, and he was_ knocked to the ground, where he was severely beaten and kicked by men and women until a policeman appeared and with club and revolver fought off the crowd. Fontza was held in $5,000 bail on a charge of criminal assault. Angeline Condarti, a_ six-year-old child, was found terribly bruised in a thicket near the village of Linoleum- ville, Staten Island, yesterday after- noon. She had been attacked by an unknown man, John Ambatro, an Italian laborer, was arrested in Brooklyn yesterday afternoon on a charge of attempted as- sault on two little girls. Daniel Lalo and Frank P. Body were arraigned on similar charges. Wants 500 More Men. Deputy Police Commissioner O’Kefe yesterday asked the mayor and board of estimate and appropriations for funds to employ an additional 500 po- licemen. The request will be acted on Wednesday. -Most of the crimes are committed in little frequented places. Mothers throughout the city are terror-stricken, The arraignment of two Italians yes- terday in the Lee Avenue court, Wi- liamsburg, disclosed another attempt made to assault a young woman. The two assailants were nearly lynched by a.mob which was finally driven off by the police. Public in Frenzy. One man died yesterday as the re- sult of race rioting which started Sun- day over a 10-cent bet on a ball game. Public exasperation approaches frenzy, which it is feared may easily lead to serious disorders, as is revealed by the frequency of mob attacks. The police are bending every ort to give adequate protection, and to further that end 1,000 plain clothes men have been scattered about the city, particularly in the congested quarters, the scene of most of the as- saults, Chicago Has Five Mysteries. Chicago, Aug. 6. — Five mysterious assaults, in which four men were kill- ed and another fatally wounded, aroused the entire police force to en- ergetic action early yesterday. In none of the cases have the police been able to obtain the slightest clue to the murderers. SOUTHERN IS HELD OUTLAW SPECIAL SESSION OF LEGISLA- TURE SUGGESTED TO DEAL WITH SITUATION. Birmingham, Ala., Aug. 7.—No offi- cial statement was issued last night of the conclusions reached at a confer- ence yesterday between Gov. Comer, Attorney General Garber and the as- sociate counsel employed to assist in enforcing the laws affecting railroads, as to the next step in the case against the Southern railway. The governor and the attorney gen- eral left for Montgomery late yester- day afternoon and a lengthy session was held by the special counsel last night, at which the legal phases of the question were gone over. It is expected that they will make a report to the governor to-day. Troops or Special Session. While the governor would make no statement, his advisers et it be known that the administration is determined to enforce the state laws at any cost. They said that if necessary an extra session of the legislature would be ealled or troops would be ordered out to see that the state’s command is obeyed. Their view is that the Southern rail- road, by defying the state law against the removal of a case from the state to the federal courts, thereby having its charter revoked by the secretary of state, has placed itself in a position to be dealt with as an outlaw, , It is considered probable that whole- sale arrests will be made of officials and employes of the Southern who continue to operate the various lines in spite of the fact that they are doing so without a charter from the state. No Right to Do Business. Montgomery, Ala., Aug. 6.—After go- ing into the evidence with regard to the duty of the Southern rail- way to provide a depot at Gaylesville, the Alabama railroad commission yes- terday refused to consider it further, on the ground that, as the company had no right to do business in the state, the commission could not tell it to do or not to do anything. The whole matter went over. WILL NOT BREAK FRIENDSHIP. Japan and the United States to Prove Mutual Desire for Peace, Washington, Aug. 7.—Japan and the United States propose to demonstrate to each other and to the world their mutual desire to maintain close and friendly relations. The demonstration is to take the form of negotiations for the removal of all differences which have arisen between them. As a result of investi: gations into Asiatic immigration con- ditions, which Secretary of Commerce and Labor Straus and the Japanese TO PUSH ALTON TRIAL. commission are making, the two gov- og Seg ernments will be in a position to ap-| Call for Special Grand Jury Issued at proach the settlement of the grave ex- Chicago, Chicago, Aug. 7. — Preparations for the second federal inqulry into the re- lations between the Standard Oil com- pany and the Chicago & Alton rail- road, ordered by Judge Kenesaw M. Landis Saturday, began yesterday. The call for a special grand jury was issued and District Attorney Sims with his associates went over all the evi- dence presented at the Standard Oil trial, which resulted in the huge fine and selected witnesses to be subpoe- naed, ‘When the grand jury convenes, Aug. 14, a few days will suffice to present the evidence against the Alton. clusion question with a better appre- ciation of each other's necessities and embarrassments. The Japanese ambassador, Viscount Aoki, has given the administration to understand that his government is op- posed to pelagic sealing, which means it does not countenace in any way the poaching operations of Japanese seal- ers, nor will it tolerate a like operation in Japanese waters by American seal- ers. Beyond these two matters there are no differences of any material conse- quence to be adjusted. The question which is most gifficult of settlement is that of immigration. Although a dele- gation of business men from Califor- nia came to Washington to urge the president to take action toward lower- ing the bars against Asiati¢ immigra- tion, there is no doubt such action is impossible at the present time. SECRETARY WILSON ILL, Contracts Cold and Room. Portland, Or., Aug. 7.—Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, who arrived here! yesterday, is ill at his hotel and de- clines to see any one. Jasper Wilson, the secretary’s son, said that his fa- ther contracted a severe cold on his trip from Puget sound to Portland and that he had passed a restless night. Is Confined to) VOLIVA TO LEAD EXODUS. Defeated in Court, Overseer Will Es- tablish a Colony of His Own. Chicago, Aug. 7.—Refused the grant- ing of his petition that he be appointed by Judge Landis a_ co-receiver with John C. Hately, now in charge of the Zion City property, and unheeded in his protests against the sale of the Zion lace industries, Overseer Wilbur Glenn Voliva, who took the place of John Alexander Dowie, yesterday as- serted his defiance of the force organ- ized against him and declared that he would abandon Zion City to establish a colony of his own elsewhere.

LIFE SENTENCE FOR MURDERER SLAYER OF JENNIE REIHLE SENT TO WAUPUN—CRIME WAVE UNCHECKED. Chippewa Falls, Wis., Aug. 7. — In the vicinity of Cadott, a small town on the Wisconsin Central line, there is in progregs a manhunt that may ter- minate in a lynching as the sequel of a brutal ¢ssault upon a fifteen-year-old girl. Maud Tautaut, the victim of the as- sault, accuses John Lyons, who Mon- day night was arrested by the town marshal. Fearing mob violence and believing that the town and lockup would prove inadequate to resist pos- sible attack, the peace officer took his prisoner to the hotel for the night. Be- fore morning Lyons had escaped. Posse on the Hunt. Yesterday a posse was formed by residents of Cadott and farmers living in the vicinity. Lyons is believed to be in hiding not far from the town, and as the search for him continues the anger of the men seems to be ris- ing, and threats of violence grow in number. The Tautaut girl says that she was attacked when in the road near her sister’s home. Frightened by a noise, her assailant left her, and she man- aged to reach the home of her sister, to whom she told her story. Lyons was in Cadott last night and when news of the attack on the girl became known he was arrested. Given Life Sentence. Wausau, Wis., Aug. 7. — Rudolph Fullhweiler, self-confessed murderer of Jennie Reihle, yesterday was sen- tenced to life imprisonment in the state prison at Waupun. Fullhweiler appeared before Judge Marchetti at Wausau Monday and waived prelimi- nary examination, admitting his guilt and refusing to have witnesses testi- fy. Public feeing against the man has been high, and threats of lynching have been made frequently. The crime was one of the most bru- tal ever committed in Marathon coun- ty. Crime Wave Unchecked. New York, Aug. 7—More of what have come to be seriously known at police headquarters as “near” crimes against girls were followed by nearer lynchings yesterday. Out of the score of complaints that reached the police a half dozen demanded serious atten- tion. Whether the number is extraor- \dinary is disputed, but certain it is that never before has mob vengeance so frequently attended attacks upon children. Led by a woman who alternately in Italian and broken English cried, “Avenge my daughter!” a _ reckless crowd of perhaps 2,000 persons last night stormed the Fourteenth street car barns of the Metropolitan Street Railway company, where a policeman had sought refuge with a_ seriously pummeled prisoner. Kissed Little Girl. Paul Sorgerator, a Greek peddler had made the mistake, it is alleged, of kissing Grace Jesco, an Italian of elev- en years. Police reserves stood off the mob while the Greek was bustled into a patrol wagon. Through a crowd that cried “Kill him!” “Lynch him!” the police fought their way to the nearest station house. Cheated of their man, the crowd vented its fury on Gaston Keriskel, an unoffending workman, homeward bound. As he was passing the rioters a boy pointed him out, at the same time yelling: “That’s the man’s friend. He was there, too.” Keriskel was pounded until he was unconscious. The police reserves final- ly got the injured man and removed him to a hospital. SMALL WRECK ON MILWAUKEE. Passengers Escape Injury in Accident Near Britton, S. D. Britton, S.

Washington, Aug. 7.—Officials of the department of justice firmly believe that the government will eventually collect the $29,240,000 fine imposed upon the Standard Oil company by Judge Landis. They admit the possibility of a re- versal on the ground of error in the trial, although they regard this chance as remote, but they don’t believe that the supreme court will consider the fine excessive. In other words, if the conviction stands, the fine stands with it. It is expected that the case will reach the United States supreme court within a year, and that a final decision may be expected a few months later. “There is nothing illegal about this record-breaking fine,” explained a high authority at the department of justice yesterday. “From the oil trust’s lamen- tations one might think Judge Landis was the criminal instead of the Stand- ard. “The fact that the Standard Oil com- pany was a gross offender and had been found guilty of over 1,400 offenses was no fault of the government. Nei- ther is there a law in existence, to my knowledge, providing that the court in imposing a fine must first ascertain whether the payment would prove bur- densome to the prisoner. “Tae Standard can get this case into the supreme court of the United States on a writ of error. That tribunal can- not go outside the record, however, because the case is a criminal one. It is doubtful if the question of fine will be raised in the circuit court of ap- Deals.” NEARLY LYNCHED. Police Arrive Before Mob Could Find Rope to String Up Man. Cleveland, Aug. 7.—Anscy men and women formed a mob which threaten- ed to lynch Walter McCracxen, a car- penter, who approached with insults, the police says, two little girls. While a half a dozen me were beating McCracken with <vhips and kicking him, others were searching for a rope. The arrival of a wagon loed of policemen called out on a riot sum- mons undoubtedly saved McCracken’s life. He was locked up. LOVELORN GIRL IS SUICIDE. Illinois Musician Drowns in Foot and a Half of Water. Joliet, Ill., Aug. 7—Disappointed in love, Miss Ada Smith, twenty years old, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Smith, living one mile south of Plainfield, committed suicide by drowning herself in water a foot and a half deep. Miss Smith was an ac- complished musician and a _ popular girl.

MANY MOORS ARE SHOT DOWN FIRE DISASTROUS TO NATIVE QUARTER—MORE WARSHIPS ON THE WAY. Casablanea, Aug. 7.—Casablanca, on the Moroccan coast, has been bom- barded by French cruisers, the Moors are reported to have been shot down in large numbers, and the town since last Sunday night has been practically in the possession of landing parties from the French and Spanish cruisers. The first shots were fired by the Moors. The French responded with a bayonet charge and the bombardment of the native quarter with melinite shell. The French has six men wound- ed but no one killed. No European residents were hurt. More Warships on the Way. The occupation of Casablanca is a direct outcome of the native uprising which resulted in the killing last week of eight Europeans at Casablanca. Both France and Spain are hurrying other warships with troops and ma- rines on board to various points on the Moroccan coast for the protection of foreigners. Under the terms of the Algeciras convention these two powers. are charged with the policing of the seaports of Morocca. News of the fighting at Casablanca was brought here by the steamer Ana- tole. Moors Start Trouble. On Saturday night the French navat officer in command informed the Moor- ish authorities that he was going to land a force for the protection of the French consul. Authorization to do so was given. The force went ashore Sunday morning at daybreak. The Frenchmen were no sooner on the beach than théy were fired upon by Moorish soldiers and in this first en- counter the French forces sustained all their casualties. The Frenchmen fought their way to their consulate and then signaled the cruiser Galilee to bombard the native quarters. Fire Is Disastrous. The Galileé at once opened upon the Moors. She was joined at 11 o'clock by the French cruiser Duchayia, and both vessels fired until 2,000 rounds of ammunition had been expended. This fire is said to have been disastrous to the Arabs. The batteries on a fort at the mouth of the harbor fired on one of the French cruisers, but it was quickly silenced and reduced. A second French landing party went ashore and joined the first party at the consulate. A third party from the Spanish cruiser Don Alvaro de Bazan was landed and occupied the Spanish consulate. The European quarter of Casablanca was not damaged. WAS ONLY A JOKE. United States Officials on Isle Royale Laughed at Young’s Humor.
