CARROLLTO.V, Miss., Aug. 1. The brutal
murder of Mr. and Mrs. It. T. Taliaferro,
on tho night of July 30, led tonight to
tho lynching of lletsle McCrny, . her son,
llelfleld McCray, and daughter," Ida McOray,
all colored. ' .;,
Tho mob was composed of about C00
whlto citizens of Carroll county, who
mnrched to the Jail In order, demanded tho
keys from Jailer nuke, proceeded to tbo
cells of tho negroes, bound them by tho
neck and hands and currlpd them to tho
corporate limits of the town, where they
hanged them to n treo by tho public road
side and riddled their bodies with bullets.
Tho mob resisted tho earnest appeals of
Judge W. F. Stephens and W. II. II tit. who
stood on the steps of tho Jail and appealed
to them In tbo name of law and order.
They even followed the mob to the cell
doors with their arms around tho necks ot
tho leaders, pleading with them to lot tho
law take Its course, but with no effect.
Ida McCray confessed knowlcdgo of tbo
murder and stated that her mother Hctste
and her brother Uolflcld helped commit the
crime. She further Implicated others, who
will probably meet n like fate. Dotslo Mc
Cray refused to mako any statement.

WHETHER THERE'S A GOVERNOR
Peter Cooper Club IlecnmuiendM Peo
ple's Independent Party
to Kind Out.
Tho Peter Cooper club had a tempest In
a teapot at Its meeting In Washington hall
last night, all because John O. Yolscr per
sisted In airing his pet vlows on tho gov
ernorship vacancy question In opposition
to tho wishes of the members, who were
already tired from unloading hot air and
desired to adjourn. He became very angry
at repeated Interruptions and refused to
play politics with his follow populists any
longer. The situation looked equally for
a time, but tho matter was finally smoothed
over and the doughty Yelser expounded his
views. After n longthy discussion, which
ranged all tho way from acrimonious to
ridiculous, Yclser's uncorked eloquence
proved convincing and the, iollowliiR reso
lution was adopted with but, one dissent
ing vote: i ,
Resolved, That tho Peter Cooper club rec

call tor the convention.
A representative ot what Is left of the
silver republican party reported that the
remnant had no placo to lay Its political
head. It was necessary under present con
ditions, ho said, to go back Into tho old
republican party or be driven into tho
ranks ot the socialists. Either alternative
was repugnant to blm and bis brother pa
triots and as previous Invitations to bo
swallowed by tho Jacksanlans and also by
tho Douglas county democracy bad been
scornfully spurned ho desired to bring
about nn amalgamation of tho truo reform
forces. It was a fond dream of bis that
the silver republicans, the populists and
other reformers woiild be flrmly united Into
ono great and grand party, with the peer
less William Jennings Urynn to' lead It
to victory In 1001. This proposition Bcecmed
to strike tho Coopcrltes favorably, for at
tbo end ot a two-hour discussion, tn which
all phases of tho question wero touched
upon, It was decided to Invite tho sliver re
publicans to meet with tho club and dis
cuss the proposed amalgamation.
Tho all-important question of finance
was brought up by tho report ot a com
mtttco which had been engaged in trying
to raise Douglas county's J 300 deficiency
assessment due tho state populist commit
tee. Tho committee reported a total of
$5.50 subscribed to date nnd asked for more
time. A warm discussion ensued, In which
every populist who had even held or ex
pected to bold an olllce waa throughly
roasted for not coming to tho front with
a liberal donation. Two members were
added to tho committee, with Instructions
to call upon democratic office-holders for
their pro rata and to make a strong shake
down among tho county employes. They
havo until August ID to raise tho balauco.

the resolution of annexation passed con
grcBSi and was signed by President Ale
Klnlcy, on tho ground that they wero not
convicted by a unautmous verdict of twelvo
Jurors. A wholesnle Jail delivery of mur
derers, burglars, lnrcrulsts and other
criminals Is threatened under the decision
and Honolulu Is greatly disturbed over the
prospects.
Tho decision wns given under the recent
Insular decisions of the United States su
premo court nnd upon tho clauso In the
Nowland's resolution which stated that
nil municipal legislation ot tho Hawaiian
Islands not inconsistent with tho constitu
tion should "temaln In force." Judge Oear
held that this meant that laws that were
Inconsistent with the constitution should
not remain In force nnd that, therefore, tho
constitution of the United States extended
to Hawaii Immediately on the signing- ot
tho Newland's resolution by the president.
Attorney General Dole is mnklng a vlg
orbuA fight hgalnst tho decision nnd Is try
ing to get the matter before the supremo
emftt. t'Ho"'cona,nds that the constitution
does not apply to Hawaii by virtue of the
Newland's resolution'1 ot the flag raising.
Judgo Gear held that thero was no right
of appeal "by tho prosecution from a writ
of habeas corpus granted nnd Dole has ap
plied to tho supremo court for a writ or
dering Gear to allow an appeal.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1. Board of Trade nnd
business circles generally were startled to
day by tho announcement thnt tho George,
H. Phillips company, which became famous
through Its pool operations In the Chicago
corn pit during tho last year, hnd trans
fcrrcd nil Its open trades to AIcReynolds &
Co. It was at first rumored that a largo
defalcation has been discovered In an ex
nmlnatlon ot tho books, but this proved un
true, having Its only foundation In the fuct
that ono of the head bookkeepers wns con
fined to his home by Illness.
Lock of facilities for tbo proper clerical
needs of the concorn, which hnd acquired an
enormous commission trade, was", according
to a statement given 'the Associated Press
by Attorney John S. Goodwin, who, as a
representative of tho law firm' of Blnck" &
Goodvyln, lias, taken charge of thb company's
nnarcnl some tlnto lrco
whcti't6''Bortrd''of Trade directors ruled
that thb 'Phillips company should turnlBh
'to each nimttr.it UiolM.-w-rriOffJ ii.de'
tailed account of the .entire transaction
large fotce was then put to work on thu
books, and In their efforts to, disentangle
tho multitudinous trades It became appar
ent that every trade on , the, .company's books
since November, 1900, would have to be
checked over, entailing an enormous amount
of work. As the firm's business kept tn
creasing at a remarkable rate the machinery
of the houso was found Inadequate, and at
midnight July SI It was decided' to simply
trnnsfor' nil trades and for the time being
throw the business of the bouse Into other
hands until a complete now set of books
shall hnvo been compiled. Mr. Phillips,
whllo regretting the necessity of this course,
said It wan tho only plan open to him.
"This does not mean we nro quitting bust
ness," he Bald. "On the contrary we Bhall
exocutb al orders, but shall havo to ask
that usual margins' nccompany all orders
until our books are checked over."
Following is a statement given tho Asso
ciated Press by Attorney Goodwin for Air,
Phllllpa: "Tho company was incorporated
In November, 1800, with a capital ot $30,000.
The business grew so rapidly that in tho
'spring the capital was Increased to $250,000,
and with that Increase business came In so
that the office forco was simply over
.vhelmed. ,
"Wo havo boen doing the largest com
mission buslncflb ot any bouse In tho world,
but It had recently come to tho attention
ot the firm that the records of tho transac
tions' v.ero not being kept in the proper
shfa pe for such deals. About a week ago
expert accountants wero put on tho books
I have gone over the legal end of tho firm's
affairs and found It absolutely correct. The
oxpert accountants found that It would be
absolutely necessary to make a now ect of
books dating from January 1, 1S00, and
checking every Item of tho Immense busl
ness. Thn eirors were apparently mado
without partiality, credits being debited and
vice versa. But up to 4 p, m. yesterday,
after a weok's work und ufter all errors
had been corrected up to that tlmo, the
books showed the 11 nn to be absolutely sol
vont, On my ndvlce they cut off, howover,
all old business at midnight last night the
! last day of the month, nnd transferred all
their open trades to McReynolds, nnd ovrfry
trade of the house Is protected and every
trade mado yesterday was made at n profit
for tbo custnmors. Wo aro sending out a
circular asking all our customers to send
us a statement of their claims agulnst the
conlpuny, bo that we may havo them audited
and uso them in preparing' a new set ot
books, with the expectation that uplest
something happens, which does not seem
probable, we shull take care of every claim
and proceed with tho business as heretofore
"The nccountant so far has found no evi
dence, whatever of criminal Irregularity, Wit
simply, mistakes duo to tho Immenso amount
of business handled with Inadequato facili
ties, for caring therefor."
