WASHINGTON , Sept. 1. The announce
ment of the lynching- six colored men
In Tennessee was much talk d of In Washing ,
ton tcday and canted renewed Interest In UK
resolution Introducjd by Representative
Blair ot NewbaAjishlre , for an Invcstlgatlor
of such forms cf lawlessness , which wll
probably be acted upon early next session.
Hon. Frederick Douglass , the venerable
pioneer of the abolition movement , was seer
by an Associated press reporter. He had no
read the report of the affair , nor did hi
" IK continuation at th'
care to. "It only a
persecution of the past , " he said , atIra
vary bitterly. "What can I say about this
affair that I have not already said o
smaller cncs ? My views are well kncwn. '
For a moment he was silent and then hi
continued , apparently spakng ! more In sorrow
row than In anger , "I regard this case ai
symptomatic , " he said. "U belongs to tha1
spirit of lawlessness which prevails all ovei
the country. It 1s usually said In defenii
of lynch law that It Is cnly resorted to li
revenge for a single crime , But that Is no
true. It Is resorted to after almost all offenses
or all alleged offenses. They kill a man , tcl
how he locked when how&s accused , hov
he confessed , how he was strung up , bu
when the coroner's Jury Is called they swea :
they don't know who did It , They neve :
know xvho the man confessed to. "
"I do not believe their accusations ; It I
simply a reign of terror in the south to
political purposes and to defeat the const !
tutlonal amendments. One effect of this per
slstcnt lawless violence In the south will be
undoubtedly , to produce retaliation on th
part of the negroes. Persecution will bege
persecution and secret revenge. Anoth
effect will be to keep the capital of the nortl
and Immigration from the north and fror
abroad away from one part of our commoi
country. H Is a deplorable state of affairs
but these things will ultimately defeat them
selves. The thirst for blood will be satlatei
ard reaction will take place. "
HOPES THEY WILL BE PUNISHED.
Hon. Blanche 1C. Bruce , ex-United State
senator from Mississippi and ex-register o
the treasury , took a conservative view of th
work of tlio lynchers In Tennessee. Thoug !
he expressed astonlshmont at the brutallt
ot the action and deplored Us dnmnglii
effects to the south , he at first declined t
discuss the affair , but finally said : "It I
certainly an appalling affair , and I earnestl
hope that the good citizens of the countr
In which It occurred will not rest until th
perpetrators have been brought to Justice
The effect of the lamentable occurrence wl
be , among other things , to neutralize t
some extent the good that ia being done b
the Southern Development association , whlc
has just closed Its sessions here. This wl
be accomplished by keeping capitalists fret
Investlns their money In the south. "
Mr. Bruce refused to Bay whether a
uprising ot the negroes was to bo expectei
though It was admitted the outcome woul
be of a serious character.
Hon. J. R. Lynch ot Mississippi , wli
served three terms in congress and -vvt
fourth auditor of the treasury under Han
son , denounced the lynchers and deprecate
the effect , of the occurrence In retarding tl :
growth of the south. "Tho lynchlngs hav
become so prevalent in the south that it
no longer an uncommon matter to read <
them.
"Naturally , I was horrified to hear of tl
Tennessee lynching , which was based mere !
on the suspicion that the men were guilty i
arson. Those men who have justified fri
quent lynchlngs through the pulpit , pro :
and on the stump have tlone so on the grouii
that lynching was resorted to only for tl
crime of assault. The truth is that tl
lynchlngs are the result of a morbid at
depraved public sentiment , which has tolc
ated any and all criminal methods to stair
out and effectually prevent successful opp
sltlon to the ruling oligarchy , which bea
the name of democracy In the south. Lyncl
Ing Is only one species of the lawlessne
which damns that section' of the country
the estimation of peaceful nnd law-abtdlr
citizens everywhere. Hence , It Is bound
be detrimental to the Industrial and comme
clal Interests of the south. It Is not a ra
matter , and there will bo no retaliation fro
a race standpoint. "

John Foley , a farmer living seventcei
miles north of Omaha , -was held up am
robbed by two masked 'highwaymen ' about I1
o'clock last night In the Coal creek cut , nea
Robbers' Roost , about two miles north o
Benson on the military road.
Foley was In Omaha yesterday with i
load of produce , which 'ho disposed of at gooi
prices , and. In company with his wife
stalled for home early In the' evening. Jus
as he drove Inlo the 'cut two masked mei
on horses rode up on either side of hi
wagon , and , pointing revolvers at Foley am
his wife , demanded Ihelr money or thei
lives. 1
The men made Foley 'get .out of the wagoi
and while ono kept htm , covered with a re
vbivcr the other went fiirough hls pockets
robbing "lilrrTbT $21 ami at-vvatc.li , after wiilcl

When the men mado'j'oley get out ot tu
wagon he managed to draw his pocketbooh
containing $95 , from his Inside pocket am
throw It Intoi the weeds at the roadside
where It now lies , as Foley himself could no
find It In the darkness.
After the robbery the men rode toward thl
city and Foley drove back to Benson , wher
he left his wife and came , on to Omaha , re
porting the robbery at police headquarter
about 1 o'clock this morning.
Mrs. Fred Stark saw two men wearln
