The wounded soi- || diers were taken into the jail. Their in- {| juries were slight and were dressed by || two surgeons who were there. Four wounded militiamen were taken to the courthouse and. later to their homes. The others were taken to hos- pitals and their homes in ambulances and carriages. This feat was accomplished with difficulty, as only a few men were brave enough to pick them up. Charles ‘Presky, a 1i-year-old boy, was carried into the courthouse. Through his wrist had gone a buckshot and each foot was shot through. TERROR OF PRISONERS. Many of the wounded were taken away before their names could be learned. The Police Department and ambulance corps were anxious that too much be not i|| learned by the reporters and it was with 11| the greatest difficulty that facts could be {|| ascertained. Inside the jail forty-three prisoners lay terrified in the darkness. | =teen of them were negroes, whose lives are far from safe if the mob attacks the jail again and effects a capture. Lights were turned out when the shooting began and the prison- ers 'moaned and cried in their celis. Tele- phone messages were sent from the jail to the hospitals and to physicians, calling for aid. The response was quick, doctors from all sections of Evansvills driving rapidly at the call. The Vincennes company of militia is on and rocker They bring to memory the extremely dainty.

He was caught and an effort was made by the soldfer to foree him' outside the lines. The guard thrust his bayonet into the | man's right side, Infileting a severe wound. The rioter wrested the gun away from the soldler, and despite his wound threw the guard to the ground and would have bayoneted him had it not been for the prompt arrival of assistance. After the soldlers took possession of the jail this evening the streets legding to the jall were crowded. Many incendlary speeches were made against the militia. NEGROES ARE IN FLIGHT. The last work of the mob early this morning before dispersing was to destroy the “Blue Goose’ saloon, a negro resort in Baptist Town. There was a circus in town to-day, which brought additional crowds of whites and negroes. In the shooting of last night Henry Armstrong, a young white man, was shot. He will recover. The Grand Jury met to-day and indict- ed Lee Brown, the negro who killed Pa- trolman Massey, for murder in the first degree. The general feeling of unrest and uneasiness caused a meeting of Mayor Culvert,qSheriff Kratz and the county offi- s at which the grave situation was discussed and plans made to protect all citizens if another outbreak were precipi- tated. All saloons in the city were or- dered closed to-day. Baptist Town was being depopulated to- night. gro families by the dozens were leaving, some of them taking refuge in the open country. Newburg road, leading to the west, was lined by negroes in wag- ons and camped by the roadside. Nearly all were armed. The firearms and ammunition taken from the stores broken into last night are still in the hands of those who composed the mob. Patrolman Massey was buried to-day. There was a very large attendance, the cortege being headed by a platoon of po- lice officers. [4 GOVERNOR DURBIN WROTH. Censures Sheriff for Not Having Suppressed the Rioters. INDIANAPOLIS, July 6.—Governor Durbin was very much agitated by the information from Evansville. “If this condition continues,” he de- clared, emphatically, “I shall go to Evans- ville myself and declare the city under martial law.” At midnight he began ordering out ad- The first was that from Vincennes, which was rushed to the scene of the riot on a special train. The New Albany company was called out and placed under arms, ready to move | on a moment's notice, arrangements hav- ing been made for a special train which would hurry the soldlers to the scene. The Goveérnor was indignant that the Sheriff of Vanderburg County had not quelled the riot in its incipiency.. “He should have sworn in 1000 depu- tles instead of 100, he sald. “If he had performed his duties fearlessly in the first place, without trying to shift the respon- sibility to the State, this thing would not have happene - MINERS DRIVE OUT NEGROES. Eight Colored Men Have Narrow Escape in Linton. LINTON, Ind.,July 6—The appearance of eight Terre Haute negroes in Linton this afternoon was the cause of a demon- stration in which the men narrowly es- caped serious injury. Alexander Sander- son, a Terre Haute caterer, was employed to serve the banquet at a meeting of Hin- ton Elks. He took his negro cooks and waiters with him and while the negroes were in the hall several thousand miners assembled in the street and threatened to dynamite the building unless the negroes were sent out of town. The eight colored men were hurried into a cab and driven to Janesville, where they were put on the train for Terre Haute. Six policemen hung on the carriage and beat back the crowd while the negroes were being driven | out of town. The intense feeling against negroes h: | rates | tended a meeting of the Transcontinen- - ‘y 1903.

L e e e e e S NO MATERIAL CHANGES IN TARIFF SCHEDULE Manager Sproule Says Trans-Pacific Rates Will Not Stand a Fur- ther Reduction. William Sproule, frelght traffic mana- ger of the Southern Pacific Company, re- turned from Chicago, where he attended | a meeting of the leading officiuls of the | rail and steamer lines interested in trans- | Pacific traffic. The main purpose of the meeting was to prepare a rmuu trafile schedule for the Interstate cmmerce | Commiseidn. There were present meeting representatives of the sflulh"rn Pacific_ Company, Union Pacific, Oregon Short Line, Santa Fe, Great \()rthe.n and Canadian Pacific railways and .\n the big steamship companies whose ve: sels operate between this couniry «md’ Aslatic ports. Discussing the meeting Mr. s;-rrhnp said that while the Elkins bill specifi- cally provides that the cornorations in- terested in the trans-Pacific trade shall | file with the Interstate Commerce Com- | mission a tariff schedule, and while the | latter body has always cantended that it has jurisdiction over this business, it is still an unsettled legal problem as to whether the commission’s authority ex- tends to trans-Pacific business. How- ever, the railroad and steamship compa- nies decided to file a schedule. The latter does not materially change the old rates, notwithstanding recent reports to the contrary. As a matter of fact the present | are very low, being made so In or- der to meet the competition bv way of | the Suez canal. While in the East Mr. Sproule also at-! tal Freight Buréau.

Chief Deputy Vogelsang of the Fish Commission is very much pleased over the capture of several game law violators | who chose'to go hunting on Independence day, instead of celebrating in the usual manner. The offenders all appeared in varlous courts of the State yesterday. Antonio Smith of this city was caught with crabs in his possession by Deputy L. N. Kerchival.

An affecting scene was witnessed in the City Prison yesterday morning between | James J. Fennessy, a painter, 49 years of age, and his mother, who has reached four score years and is bent and feeble. Fennessy had begged 10 cents from a man on Stockton street early Thursday morn- ing and was arrested by Policemen Far- rell and Davids on a charge of vagrancy. His aged mother searched everywhere for him and yesterday morning called as a last resource at the City Prison, where she found him, and her heart was broken over his predicament. His case was be- fore Police Judge Fritz and when the Judge was notified of the clrcumstances he released Fennessy on his promise that he would be in court this morning. —_——— Republican Clubs.

This condition is due to anemic nerve centers. The nerve centers are the reservoirs of nervous vitality. These centers become bloodless for want of proper nutrition. This Is especially true in the warm season. Every summer a host of invalids are produced as the di- rect result of weak nerves. This could be easily obviated by the use of Peruna. Peruna strikes at the root of the difficulty by correcting the digestion. Digestion furnishes nutrition for the nerve centers. Properly digested food furnishes these reservolrs of life with vitality, which leads to strons, steady nerves, and thus nourishes life. The unsolicited pralse that Peruna re- ceives surely proves that Peruna is with- out an equal as a nerve tonic and vital invigorator. Thousands of testimonials from women in all parts of the United States are be- ing received by Dr. Hartman every year. Buy a bottle of Peruna. If you do not receive all the benefits from Peruna that you expected, write to Dr. Hartman, Columbus, O. 1 | Peruna is In great favor among women, especially those who have vocations that are trying to the nervous system. Peru- na furnishes the lasting invigoration for the nerves that such people so much need. FURNH AULES | 1ate Judge Philip W. heard of this city, RBR.
