Mayor Strives to Quell Riot , but
Falls to Stop Frenzied Crowd.
Joplln , Mo. , April 1C. An Infuriated
mob took an unknown tramp negro
from the city Jail last evening and
hanged him to a telegraph pole at the
corner of Second ami Wall streets ,
two blocks from the jail. The negro
was charged with having murdered
Police Officer C. Leslie , who was shot
dead In the Kansas City Southern
railroad yards while endeavoring to ar
rest several negroes suspected of
theft.
The negro was captured In a slaugh
ter house , brought to Joplln and
placed In jail. News of the capture
spread rapidly and the jail was speed
ily surrounded by hundreds of people.
There wore cries of "Lynch him" on
all sides and City Attorney P. H.
Decker mounted the jail steps and
made a strong plea In behalf of Htw
and order. This served to temporarily
etay the mob , but did not appease It ,
and a short time after Decker's speech
the mob started to batter In a section
of the Jail wall. Every effort wan
mode to prevent the entrance of the
mob , but without avail , and Wlltiln
fifteen minutes the infuriated moti
had gained entrance to the jail and
secured the trembling negro. As ho
was dragged forth City Attorney
Decker again Interfered and urged
that the negro be given a trial. For
half an hour ho talked and the mob
listened to him with the negro In
their custody. At one tlmo it seemed
that the city attorney would win , as
members of the mob began dispersing.
A rush was made for the spot whore
the negro was being held and ho was
dragged two blocks from the jail , n
rope fastened around his neck and
after the rope had been thrown over
the crossbar of a telegraph pole a
ecoro of men attempted to pull the
negro from the ground. As many
more seized the negro and pulled to
prevent him being hanged. For same
moments it was a veritable tug-of-war ,
but reinforcements on the free end of
the rope proved the stronger , and the
negro , despite his protestations of in
nocence , was finally swung Into the
air and strangled to death , while
shouts of satisfaction went up from
the mob.
The lynching of the negro served to
only temporarily satisfy the indigna
tion of the mob and later hundreds
of men again assembled and rioted
through the negro section of the city ,
burning houses , stoning negroes and
finally drove every negro from the con
fines of Joplln. The police were pow
erless.
The first act of the mob after hang
ing the negro was to demand the re
lease from jail of a local character
known as "Hickory Bill , " who was un
der arrest on the charge of assaulting
a negro. In the hope that this would
appease the mob , the prisoner was set
free.
But the mob did not disperse. In
stead , a rush was made through Main
street , the principal street cf Joplln ,
and every negro was frightened off the
street and fled to the north part of
the city , where the colored population
resides. In this way the negroes were
driven from all parts of the city to
the negro section. Then the mob
charged down on the section. Stones
were thrown , doors and windows of
negro houses were broken in and
finally several were fired. The fire
department responded , but many of
the houses were burned to the ground.
The mob made endeavors to prevent
the fire department from extinguishing
the flames and wcro partially success
ful.
ful.All
All the officers of the city , township
and county were called out , but the
mob swept them aside and proceeded
with the rioting. Mayor Trlgg ran
from corner to corner and mounting
boxes , 'made earnest appeals to the
mob to cease , but they only Jeered the
mayor. The saloons wcro hurriedly
closed by the mayor.
After the hundreds of frenzied men
composing the mob had vented their
wrath in the north end of the city ,
they rushed to the southern end ,
where lived a number of negroes. The
houses were vacant , not a negro could
bo found. Three more houses were
fired and two wore consumed.
