Desperate Mob in Denver. s DENVER, March 8.—At about 9 o'clock to-night the 1i1-year-old daughter of Ed- ward D. Hegg, special officer for the Colo- rado and Southern Rallway, was crimin- ally assaulted by an unknown negro with- in a stone’s throw of her home. Blood- hounds have been brought into requisj- tion, though :t is not certain they will be able to take thé scent. A lynching is probable if the brute is captured. The Hegg family lives at 1910 West Col- fax avenue. The little girl had been to a store in the neighborhood and had just reached her gate when she was seized, carried to a nearby vacant lot and bru- tally assaulted. She could only describe her assailant as a roughly dressed negro a beard. Her hands and face meared with coal dust, grease or the fellow’s hands. fld’s father notified the police, who have searched the neighborhood in ain for the negro, and finally had re- course to bloodhounds. The nelghbors ave jolned in the hunt and threats of lynching are freely made. Almost the en- tire police and detective forces have been | put to work on’the case, and every ave- nue of escape from the city is being care- fully guarded. The victim of the assault h; not considered in a dangerous condi- tion. Dr. Farman Convicted. PA, March §.—The second trial of Dr. C. H.

It says | that Morgan will meet representatives of | the leading German syudicates at a con- { ference in Berlin in April. This confe ence has already been arranged by cable. The Express prints a statement made by an unnamed American - millionaire, who,, it says, has discussed a German-American business union with the principals in both countries, He savs: “Ie do not fear England in America, nor Germany. We simply fear each other, | but the world is big enough for both na- tions "and the rival trusts are BQinf to harmonize their interests. Morgan will be here in April. After he begins it will not be long before an International cartel to regulate prices and products “will be formed. We dq not fear England, because her ma-hinery is obsolete and her men are spiritless and ground to a low level by false unionism.

He w )t ordinarily opposed, he said, to corporations, but he was op- posed to the Contra Costa Company for its conduct in this city.

SUE WELL-KNOW MEN FOR DANAGES Gold Run Placer Property Is the Basis of Con- tention. e J. D. Redding, J. E. Doolittle and E. A. Wiltsee the Men Against ‘Whom Charges of Alleged Fraud Are Made. e Joseph D. Redding, Jefferson E. Doolit- tle and E. A. Wiltsee are charged by the Gold Run Gravel Company (Limited) in a complaint which wiil probably be filed in the Superior Court to-day with having mulcted the plaintiff out of $90,000. It is alleged in the complaint that Redding claimed to have paid §200,000 for the Gold Run Consolidated Placer when in reality be pald but $110,000, the defendants Do- little and Wiltsee sharing the difference .| with him. Reding as a director in the Gold Run Company was authcrized to make the purchase. In May, 1597, Redding came to California for the purpose of completing the negoti- tions. It is charged that he entered into | a conspiracy with Doolittle and Wiltsee to defraud the company out of 360,000 and that the terms of the conspiracy were that Redding, in deirregard of his duty as agent, should falsely and fraudulently | represent to the company that the sum actually paid for the property was $200,000. Although the transaction took place in 1897 the conspiracy according to the com- plaint was but recently discovered. Mr. Redding, whosé home s in New York, is In the city and declares there is no truth in the charges. He says: “The only correct statement is that the company bought the property and got a ood bargain. There was no conspirac he money was pail by checks and passed through the banks In the regular course of business. No conspira¢y could have | bfen carried through under such condi- tions. “Doolittle and Wiltsee were part owners in the propérty and joined in making the sale. Everything in the transaction was clean, open and aboveboard. Colonel Doolittle declares the suit is stmply a picee ot spite wopk. “It is four vears since $he sale was said he last night, “and this is the nt 1 have heard.

At the Metropolitan Temple last even- ing a large house was royally entertained by Father McLougblin, who gave his il- lustrated musical lecture on the “Music of Mother Church.” The vast subject was treated in a concise and eloquent fashion and the polished diction and pleasing voice of the speaker added much to the charm of the evening's entertalnment.

For the glory of God, “Glorla in Excelsis,’” not for the glorification of composer, organist or choir, is the sacred kymn, and only music written, played and sung in such spirit can appeal to the highest in man.
