Oiusn HAI-IIH , Mich. , Oct. 10.-C. H. Nel
son Is not entirely satisfied with the rosultof
Thursday's r.ico , and attributes the defeat of
hli horse to lameness last week nt Cambridge
City , Ind. , which Interfered with training.
Ho expressed unbounded confidence in Nel
son's speed , and declared thai ho had 110,000
which said that Nelson could beat Allcrton
or any other stallion In the world , four weeks
hence , on the track In this city or anywhere
else. Ho would back Nelson with his last
dollar If In perfect condition ngalnst Allorton.
Ho says ho will be "In 11" next season.
C. W. Williams smiled when Mr. Nelson's
remarks were repeated to him , nnd said that
Allorton was not pushed at all , but was
Jogged along at nn easy and ordinary training
pace which ho could keep up indefinitely.
Allorton would , ho said , have won the first
heat but for nn unfortunoto break nt the ills-
lance pole , and but for fear of straining him
ho would have finished any of the heats sev
eral seconds short of the actual tlmo mado.

IiiolilentH iii the Tragedy Overlooked
in the Fii-Ht lliiHh.
The county Jnll nnd the grounds tn the Im
mediate vicinity of Friday night's lynching
were the points of interest about which the
crowds gathered yesterday.
At 8 o'clock yoitcrday morning perfect quiet
prevailed In the neighborhood , and from that
tlmo until daylicht the grounds were de
serted. An hour later the early arrivals
wore on hand and ns the sun poopnd over the
eastern hills people began to gather to vlow
the surroundings whore the iragody was en
acted. Hundreds attracted , out of sheer
curiosity , visited iho spot. Pisces of wood
for relics , were cut from the polo which sup
ported the wire from which tha unfortunate
man was supported.
Keep Off the Grar.H.
Around the Jail the signs'-Keep Oft Iho
Grass , " bad no effect and the space In front
of the Jail door was almost as densely
packed as nt any tlmo during the lynching.
Jailor Horrigan and las deputies , although
thov did not close their eyes In sleep Friday
night were good Matured and answered the
thousands of questions that were shot nt
them. Both the exterior nnd the Interior of
the jail presented n dilapidated appearance
and gave ono the idea lhat the building had
been bosoiged and captured by a war Hue
enemy.
Damnxo to the Jail Property.
The heavy iron rail and the telegraph polo
used at battering rams to force the grating
from the east window of the Jail olllce were
in position ns left by the mob. Cold chisels ,
crowbars and sledges were scattered about
the grounds whore they had been dropped
when Coo , nt. the cud of the rope , was pullei'
through the window. In the olllco every
thing was In disorder. The telephone and
police alarm wires had been cut , the chairs ,
desks and folding bed made an interesting
mass of ruins. About tbo only thing that was
Intact was the box in which the keys to lhe
cells wcrosecreled. This was overlooked by
the leaders of the mob. Even had these keys
passed Into the possession of the lynchors
they would have been of but llttlo use of ex
pediting the work of going through Ibo doors ,
ns now two Hoys are alike and as there ore
nearly 150 It would have been an almost end
less task to have opened tbo doors.
Beyond the Jail ofllco the work of destruc
tion is complete. The heavy door leading
from the ofllco to the visitors' corridor Is a
mass of ruins. It was constructed of boiler
Iron and was soon wrenched from Its hinges
under the blows dealt from sledge hammers
and Iron bars. The next door , the ono openIng -
Ing Into the reception room , shows but llttlo
damage from violence. Whllo it Is
of cbllled steel , It hangs In the
iron grating , and by applying a
crowbar in the space near the lock , it was
sprung out and swung back upon It hinges.
"
"Tho way was then clear to the second floor ,
ns enl ) a wicket g.ito at the footof Iho stairs
Impeded the progress of the determined men.
This obstruction was soon out of the way and
the attack was made upon the heavy Iron
separating the solitary cells from the recep
tion rooms on the second floor. It was at lhat
door that the workingmen In the mob dis
played their mechanical ability. ' Instead of
forcing the door the men wont to wcrk In a
business like manner. They brought
forth cold chisels and hammers
from their pockets , and In n
short space of time bad the lock cut loose ,
after which the door was easily puihcd open.
This door opened into a room thnt connected
with all of the cages on tbo upper floor of the
cast wing , beyond which was the heavy Iron
door lhat separated tbo cell room from Ed.
Neal's old cell , into which Coo had bjeu
placed during the early pnrt of the evening.
.Jailor Horrigan saw that resistance was
useless , nnd fearing that the cells , which con
tained nearly Ihirly prisoners , among whom
wcro a number of colored men , would bo
opened , unlocked lhe door and Informed Iho
leaders that the object of their search was In
the cell known as "Solllary No. 2 , " at the
cast end of the wing.
The keys of thai cell were , demanded , but
refused , and the wild work of destruction
went on with n vengeance.
The solitary is known as the "Pauloy
vauil cell , " and Is constructed of bars two
inches wldo and one-half Inch thick. The
formation is In alternate layers of chilled
steel and wrought iron. The resistance is
wonderful , as the hardest cold chisel will
have no effect upon the steel , whllo the lay
ers of iron makes It Impossible to break the
bars by blows. The door Is secured by a
heavy foot bar , held In place by a combina
tion Norwegian lock , wuilo at the top and
middle , bars two inches In thickness shoot
out over the door The lock Is In a chilled
steel box , doubly locked.
Jailor Horrlgao stated thai at the door the
mob halted , but only for an Instant. The
man who directed the movements of Iho
workers pointed out the weak spot and. the
ringing blows of hammers wore heard. Soon
the lower lock gave way and the bolt was
slipped back. This gave the men ou oppor
tunity to pry open the lower part of the door
and tbo work of demolishing Iho main lock
was an easy task. When this door opened
the men were still , some distance from
the object of vengeance ' ns another
door with similar locks had to
bo forced. The experience with the
outer door bad nerved iho men for the
work and In a remarkably short space of
tlmo the last oostaclo was removed iiiut the
poor , cowering black brute was wltnln their
grasp , In the cell occupied by Ed Ncal for so
man ) ' months.
There was but litllo ado. A yell wont up.
The rqpo was put around the nook of the un
fortunate man and without allowing him the
bouolit or clergy , ho was drugged down lhe
siairs and Into iho jail olllco. The public
knows lha rasi nnd all of Iho horrible details
connected with the case.
Killed In Transit.
Jailor Horrigan In speaking of the case
said that Coo was alive when ho
was pulled through the window and
Into tbo open air , but boioro ho
was ton feet from tbo Jail ho was dead.
Every spark ot life had left his carcass , as
lie was trumped upon by hundreds of man ,
whllo nthon at the end of the rope pulled the
body almost limb from limb.
Wnon asked why ho did not telephone for
assistance , Jailor Horrlgau replied that ho
had PO Intimation of the coming of the mob
until the courtyard was tilled with people.
Ho then turned In a police alarm and also
attempted to call up the police station by
telephone , but all of ttio wires hud boon cut ,
Mr. Itorrlgan regrets the occurrence .very
much , but states that lie used every effort in
his power to prevent thn lyuohlni ; . Ho
thinks that U twenty determined men had
been upon the ground when the mob llrst , ar
rived it could have boon hold at bay unlll as
sistance could have arrived.
Hlmriiriloyil TalltH
Sheriff Boyd when scon yesterday was
very Gowncusl over what had taken place.
Ho had hoard wild rumors that a mob in.
landed to raid Iho Jail , bul regarded thorn as
canard * . Ho bad taken precautions and had

Had ho expected an attacK he would have

In speaking of bis abduction , the sheriff
stated lhat ho went to the nnrtb
door of the jail for the purpose of quelling
the mob , but as soon as the door was opened ,
be was seized by the nrms and log * , over
powered and hustled to the High school
grounds , wlioro ho was kept until the man
had boon hung high In the air , HU capture
and detention was complete , as after reach-
lug the quiet of the High scbool grounds the
men placed him upon his back nnd sat upon

bis liberty , but was told to keep quiet at the
peril of his lite. That It was a preconcerted

after bis capture , messengers arrived

Mayor Cushlng said Hint it was the most
deplorable thing that had over occurred In
the history of the county. Ho
ordered out the on tire police force
but cautioned the members not tn flro Into
the crowd , ns ho fully realized thai if a shot
wns fired U would have resulted In the kill ,
ing of scores of innocent men who were
simply spectators. The mayor ordered out
the lire department , as ho thought the throw
ing of water would c.iuso the crowd to dis
perse. The mayor did not think the city
would take a hnnd lit bringing about thu
arrest and conviction of the men. The mat
ter wns wholly lu the hands of the county ,
nnd the commissioners should make the
guilty ones pay the penalty.

County Attorney Malionoy said that ho
favored pushing the case to nn Issue. Ho
would advise the county commissioners to
offer a reward for the arrest and conviction
of thu leaders. Ho did not blame
the couuly nud clly olllccrs , but , thought
that If n ; sqund of poilco had
been detailed when the men first gathered nil
trouble could have boon averted. Omaha
nnd Douglas county would bo compelled lo
take hold of Iho m'attur nnd forrol out the
perpetrators of what he called a cowardly
nud cold blooded murder.
Amount of tlio Damage.
At this tlmo It Is dlfllcult to estlmalo the
damage lo properly , bul It Is thought that It
will not exceed $1,000. A number of lengths
of hose were rendered worthless , having been
chopped to pieces , but $500 will cover the
damage sustained by tno lire department.
At the county Jail $1,000 will put the cells ,
locks and cages In as good condition as now ,
unless tbo broken machinery about the cages
has to bo made to order , In which event the
expense will bo a couple of hundred dollars
moro.
At the iMorjjne.
The body of the mob's victim lay upon n
cooling board at Hoatoy & Hoafoy's yesterday
morning , with a tarpaulin thrown over It mid
the fatal rope still fastened to the neck. The
doors were thrown open nnd the public was
given permission to puss through nnd vlow
the remains.
The people filed through between the cas
ket containing Neal's ' remains on ono sldo
and Smith upon thu other , although Neal's
casket was not opened. Nearly 0,000 people
passed throus-'h in Iwo hours. At 10 o'clock ,
the doors were closed and notices posted
announcing lhat the body had boon removed
to the residence of luo mother of the de

Neal's remains were viewed Friday

for disturbing .lhe.police. Ho took olT his
coat and vest \yblle at work , and the police
secured possession of thorn , learning his
name from Iho lotlers Ihoy contained.
The county attorney Is debating upon the
propriety and advisability of filing a com
plaint against him for conspiring to murder
Smith. The youn. < j man is a German , who
came lo thocity'but n few days ago looking
for work. It is understood that in case this
action is taken , a liberal sum of money will
bo raised to assist in his defense.

who wrecked the B. , & M. train nt Dunbar ,

the intention of Iho mob lo fol

Woman Who Itcvols
111 ( tOrOi
x. N. S. Oct. 10. Particulars have
econ received hcrcot the hanging ntShanls-
town , Jamaica , last inoiilh of thrco men nnd
a woman for the murder of John Allnr , his
wife , his mother and n man namoil Gofaden.
The oxecutcd criminals were two coolies
nnmoil Panhnnslng anil Ilblllc , the lattor's
wlfo nnd a creole named Uobnrt Johnston.
Tliolastnnruod , according to the story told
by Jlbliio's , wife to n man nntnoit
Hlchard Dennett , In the hearing of n ilotcc-
tivo , who was omplo.vcdto commit the murder
and was to bo paid .Ol for the deed. The
crlrno was caused by John Allor having Riven
Information upon which a batlilT tuado a lavy
on seine ot Itbillcs's property.
Some llorrlhlo DotnilH.
John Allor was decoyed from his hoitso by
Johnson to n lonely spot on a rood wlioro the
Ilblllcs rushed from n hiding place and struck
him n torrlhlo blow on the back of the head
with n largo stone , felling hltn. to the ground.
As ho fell Pntibauslng dealt him another blow
upon thu head with n stick and then dragged
him from the spot where ho fell A short dis
tance ana thoa they llnlshcd him. Johnson
knelt upon his stomach , Punhntislng
stood upon his foot , and Jibllic
cut his throat. Ilbllle's wife and
Johnson wcro then sent to call Uofadcn , who
was doing business in that locality.
The woman loft Johnson with Gofuden nnd
rejoined the other two , nnd nil lild them
selves as Johnson mid Gofnden pnmo up to
where they wore. They pounced upon him ,
foiled him to the ground and then dragged
him Into Jibllic's rum shop , wiiero Pnnhun-
slng cut his throat. They then wont into
John Allor's house and slaughtered ICun/.llo ,
his wlfo and Patarun , his mother , whose
body Johnson cut up in a frightful man
lier. The bodies were loft lying on the Jloor ,
whore tliov wora subsequently discovered
with the llttlo girl of Allor's sitting between
them , covered with the blood of her mother
and grandmother. The lives of the two
women were forfeited simply because they
recognized Johnson when lie called John
Allot' out of his house , and the murderers
thought they would testify to this fact. The
reason why the baby was not included In the
slaughter seems to have been because It
could not talk , although tlio woman distinctly
said It , too , should bo disposed of with Its
mother. Johnson said that the pickaninny
could not talk and must not dlo.
Night licl'urc the Iliinuin .
Tbo accused spent the night before the
execution fairly well. Ar. ( i0 : ! Hobort John
son emerged from his cell , chatted cheerfully
for a few seconds and then walked up ana
down In front of thocells apparently praying.
Then Panhansing came out of his cell and
sitting down by the side of the wall rested
his head in his hands. At 0:40 the woman ,
Agnes Hire , commenced to wall and
cry nnd did not cease until the
arrival of the clorpy. Ilbille suffered first.
Agnes called upon Gbd lo witness that she
knew nothing of the crime nnd her husband
had scarcely finished a similar declaration
when the drop foil. Agnes died instantly
but Ilbilic struggled terribly for two minutes.
After Ilbillo had been out down , Panhnnsinc
and Johnson mounted ttio scaffold and fell
togothor. Not a muscle of cither of the men
moved.

STORIES OF MOB VIOLENCE ,
Refugees from lolmug Roaoh a Placa of
Safety in China.
DANGEROUS SITUATIONS OF FOREIGNERS ,
Soldiers and Cltl/.eiiN Unite to Drive
the ICiiropoiuiH from the Pro
vince Some Narrow
China , Oct , 10. The steamer
Pao Him arrived hero today with Iciinnn
refugees , twenty in nil , all of whom lost
everything except the clothes they woio at
thu beginning of the outbreak. Several
bore marks of , serious violence. The riot
took place at broad noonday without warn
Ing or provocation. It was carried out by a
handful of men , evidently under orders , In
the presence of a number of Chinese ofll-
clals , who know every one of the rlotor.s.
Their mission of destruction was carried
out with the utmost speed.
A crowd had collected , nod .suddenly a
rush was made for a house belonging to the
American Episcopal mission. The gate was
smashed In and a man heading the mob orioil :
"Slay the foroignor.s. " 1'bo rioters came In
with nru.sh ana ono aimed a murderous blow
with n shackle at Mr. Soworby. Mr. Sewer -
or by disarmed this assailant nnd avoided
another ; thorn ran for bis life , reaching the
consulate , from where ho was traiislurrcd nn
board the Pao Hun. The American mission
house was sot on flro and the Yanion nnd
soldiers fell back , neither civ'i ' nor military
mandarins making an ofTort to protect the
property.
The Koman Catholic convent was next
tired and the sisters , seven In number , barely
escaped to the river , where they were thrown
headlong down the sleep bank bv soldiers.
They were taken In n buaton boat-it tbo Pao
Hun and were stoned by the mob on shore.
Several sisters were badly Injured by mis
siles. It was thought a number of children
in the convent were imrncd to death.
A mob armed with knives and axes rushed
to the consulate , bul did not attack it.
The houses of Dr. Pierce and Itov. Mr ,
Doan together with other buildings were
burned. Mr. Kockburn's house was ruined
and the new British consulate In course .of
construction was torn down. Houses were
looted nnd although no ono was killed sev
eral attempts were made to murder and
throats were frequent.
At the old consulate the foreigners kept
the rioters back with bayonets. The leaders
of the mob carried gunpowder and kerosene
with which to the the building.
Tlioao having stolen property from the
ruined buildings were arrested next day , but ,
no attempt was made to c.iptuie the roai
leaders. Many of the rioters wore .soldiers
who had taken off their coats to disguise
themselves. During the whole tlmo man
darins were present nnd tnadu no attempt to
prevent the people from carrying away
plunder.
That no lives were lostts almost ciiit'.roly a
matter of luck. The Scotch missionaries
owed their escape to the fact that they had

As In former cases telegraph clerks re
fused to send In notvs. A full dlspatcli to

without excuse , on the tiny of the riot and nil
foreign messages the day afli'r. On the

In Ilankoiv things are stirring again.
Yesterday there was a gathering
of thu ahti-forcign element here , In
cluding a inrco number of magis
trates and olllcials. They resolved that
foreigners must go Immediately fiom the cen

SiiANdii.u , China , Oct. 10. The North
China Dally News snys : There are points
about , tbo Icbnng riot of serious importance.
It. is in no sense the work of a mob. Tlicro
was Indued u pretext in the shape of a child
said to havu been kldnanped on tha day of
this riot , but Ibis evidently Is merely a nub
torfuco In order to give the shadow of an ox-
ciiso for tliu outbreak. Evidences that the
riot was directed and curried out by soldiers
are only too numerous.
Where no gunboat can go the position of
foreigners , unless In numbers is very inse
cure. When soldiers got orders from their
secret leaders as ut Ictmng , they care noth
ing for their officers. Tbo c-onlral govorn-
menl is poivcrlcus for II has
'
Hunan ortlc'ials everywhere and
the troops everywhere are Hnniin
men , except LI Hung Chung's disciplined
force. To order him to suppress Iliiiuin with
these men is to start a civil war. The sltua-
linn is very critical nnd the only solution Is
for a foreign force to overawe Hunan with
the tacit connivance of the Chinese govern
ment.
