Dr. A. D. Melvln of Washington, chief

late and federal officials, who conducted
Ihe Inspection In Livonia township.
No Cases Oat In Aisle.
Reports from points out. in the state
o far have been favorable. The Inspectors
mho have visited a number of cltlos and
towns where the disease might be feared
liave encountered no cases as yet. The
tours of Inspection, however, have not been
completed.
As to the situation at the Detroit stock
yards. Michigan Central railroad officials
atatnd tonight that there had been no new
developments here regarding shipments of
cattle and that the only embargo related
to eastern points which have been quaran
tined for several days. There are persistent
reports, however, that the railroads center
ing In Detroit have shut down or are pre
paring to shut down at once on any cat
tle shipments destined to pass through
Detroit, for other points, though cattle con
signed for Immediate slaughter in Detroit
are not under any embargo ss yet.
The situation at the local stockyards is
comparatively free from complications as
the Detroit market days fall later In the
week, on Thursday and Friday, and a
apeclal market day yesterday practically
cleared out the herds. About the only
rattle on hand are 100 head that were
destined to Detroit, and there are about

State and Federal Inspectors.
The federal Inspectors who went to Li
vonia today were Dr. I K. Green, in
, charge of the Detroit office of bureau of
nnlmal Industry; Dr. Adolph Klchorn of

acute. The entire PJ0, however, found on
five farms, will have, to be destroyed.
The slaughtering of the Infected cattle
Is held In abeyance pending the gathering
of an adequate stivff of inspectors to
take care of the situation here. But the
Michigan committee took the Initiative to
day in declaring a quarantine of the farms
where cases of the disease were found
and men taking care of the stock, or
coming in contact with the cattle were
prohibited from visiting other farms. It
Is stated that the Infection of one herd
was traced directly to a visit that Us
owner paid to a neighboring farm where
cattle had fallen under suspicion und were
being examined.
On euah farm, where cases of the dis
ease were found the infection had spread
through the entire herd.

state of Michigan would pay one-third, ex
penses of burial, disinfection to be met In
the same way and the value of the de
stroyed cattle is to be met by appraisal.

NEW YORK. Nov. 15. Distt let Attorney
Clsrk In superior court, Brooklyn, ester
day In his opening charge against John G.
Jenkins, president of the defunct Jenkins
Trust company, charged with the larceny
of liO.oro, said that he would produce proof
to show that Jenkins took unlawfully from
the bank sltogether 1537,000. or S37.0CO more
than the actual capitalization of the bank
Itrolf. Tills money, he alleged, was en
tered In the books as loans to Kaiser, Hart
Huntley-and Young, all clerks In the bank?
who knew nothing of the loans.
The specific charge against Jenk.ns is
grand larceny. In that he turned over to
Frank and J. O. Jenkins. Jr., a brokerage
concern to which he belonged, the sum of
$50,000 on a demand note two d.iys before
the trust company went under. This JjO.OflO,
Mr. Clsrk charged, amounted to one-half
of which was enough to keep the bank re
serve up to the sum required by law. One
hundred thousand dollars had been ob
tained but a few days before by discount
ing the paper of customers of the Jenkins
Trust company.
William A. Conklln. who was secretary
and cashier of the Jenkins Trust compsny,
testified that on October 23, 1907, he gave
credit to the firm of Frank and J. G.
Jankins for $50,000. He hsd refused to
make the losn In view of the condition of
the finances of the trust company, but was
ordered to do so by Mr. Jenkins. Mr.
Conklln also testified that he had made all
of Ihe l.ians to the dummies prior to this
date and that they had not repaid any
profit, but that the amount of each loan
was credited to the brokerage firm. All
of these loans, he said, were made under
the direction of John G. Jenkins, Jr.
The witness will continue on the stand to
morrow. Jan Ponrrn Cross Eumlntd.
The cross examination of Jan Pouren,
the Russian exile, who Is fighting against
extradition from this country, came to an
abrupt termination today before .United
States Commissioner Hitchcock. After
the commissioner had sustained objection
to many questions, counsel for tliu Rus
sian government offered to prove ' that
Pouren entered this country by means of
perjury and fraud and therefore had no
right to Its asylum. The ruling once more
was agalnBt the Russian government side
and they declined to proceed further with
the cross examination. On the refusal of
Russian attorneys to cross examine
Pouren the case was adjourned pending
the receipt of a document from Russia
which the defense was to introduce as
their last point in evidence, claiming it
will show that the csar's government pro
claimed Pouren a revolutionist and hud of
fered a reward for his capture as such,
and not as a criminal.

Tbe real secret of success in the nation

MOB TAKES MEN FROM COURT

Convlrted of Marder Are
I.) nehrd.
UNION CITT. Tenn., Nov. 25 -The lit
tle town of Tiptonvllle, bordering on Reel
foot lake, which has been the scene of
many stirring Incidents the past month,
witnessed the lynching, lite yestere'av af.er
noon, of thiec negroes, who were arrested
this morning for murdering Special De
puty Sheriff Richard Burruss. and fatally
wounding John Hall, a deputy sheriff.
The negroes names are:
KDWARD ST1NEBACK.
MARSHALL 8T1NEBACK.
JIM STINEBACK.
These brothers created a disturbance at
a religious meeting near Tiptonvllle, it
urday night, and when the officers at
tempted to arrest them, a fight ensued
In which the negroes shot the officers
and made their escape. It was nardly
daylight Sunday morning before a posse
of citizens from Tiptonvllle und surround
ings were In pursuit of the negroes, but
they successfully escaped the white mm
until 8 o'clock this morning, when they
were surrounded and captured In a swamp j
near the village of Ridgely.
The vicinity Is known as the Old River
bed canebrake, and It is difficult to trace
man or beast through Its tangles.
Once captured, however, the negroes,
covered by a hundred guns, were quickly
landed In Jail at Tiptonvllle. The negroes,
when arrested, had two guns in their
possession, but had run out of ammuni
tion. The news of the capture spread rapidly
to the surrounding country and In addition
to the several hundred members of the
possee men began arriving by every road
and soon the jail was surrounded by a mob
which had no hesitancy In threatening a
lynching quickly and surely.
One of the first cltisens to mount the
steps of the Ja II and make an appeal to
the mob was J. Ij. Burnette. a well known
lawyer. Mr. Burnette recalled the recent
night rider outrages which had disgraced
the vicinity. Ho admonished his hearers
not to do anything desperate and let the
law take Its course,, although at the same
time promlso that full Justice would be
done the three black men. This met with
a long growl of disapproval and Mr. Bur
nette evidenly seeing that his remarks
were of no avail pleaded with the men
that If they were determined to lynch tho
negroes to wslt until nightfall.
Tsylor Hall, a brother of tho wounded
deputy sheriff, followed Mr. Burnette. He
said In effect that a postponement of the
lynching until tonight would be satisfactory
to him. The mob. however, was very rest
less and It waa soon seen that It would be
Impossible to stem the tide of feeling.
As a last resort, S. J. Caldwell, a towns
man, and Sheriff Haynes went before Jus
tice Lee Davis and explained the situation
and telling of the menacing attitude of 'he
crowd which thronged the principal streets
to the jail. Justice Davis at once atrreed
to open his court at 6 o'clock, summon a
jury of twelve men. and allow the negroes,
after all evidence ,that could be adduced was
heard, to be duly sentenced to death.
Meantime Governor Patterson was ad
vised by telephone of the situation, and or
dered a donVpany of militia in this city to
proceed with all haste and, if possible, to
secure the negroes and conduct them to a
place of safety. The troops were started
at once, but failed to arrive in time to
prevent lynching.
At the trial all of the evidence of tiiose
who had seen the killing was heard, and
in an incredibly, short time the case was
given to the Jury, who In a few minutes
returned a verdict of "guilty," and fixing
the sentence as death.
Tho sentence had hardly been passed on
the negroes when the mob, with a whoop
and a yelli entered tho court room, and
seizing the 'prisoners, rushed them to a
large tree 'near, the edge of town and
hanged them, firing volley after volley Into
the air as the bodies were drawn up from
the earth. '

TIN CAN PROVES POOR BANK
Barber Conceals Hii Money in a Cel
lar and Boy Finds It.
PARENTS FAIL TO RETURN CASH
All Are Arrested by Police, hot It Is
Uncertain Whether They Will Be
Prosecuted, as Practically All
of Money Is Found,
Concealment of $1,105 In a tin csn in the
floor of a cellar during the financial flurry
a year ago by Peter G. Grosso, a barber,
who lost faith In the bank where the money
hsd been on deposit; the finding of the
sum last Sunday noon by Hamolln Jones,
the 12-yenr-old son of Mr. nnd Mrs. D. A.
Jones snd another lad and Its concealment
by Mrs. Jones, the discovery by Groartii
that his savings had been unearthed and
taken away and the quick recovery of the
money and arrest of the Jones family by
detectives of the police department within n
few hours of the time the loss was discov
ered are the principal points In the latest
piece of work handled by Chief of Detec
tives Savage and his men.
Tuesday afternoon about 1 o'clock Cap
tain Savage was told by Grosso of the dis
appearance of the money ' from the hole
In the ground under the barber's house at
610 North Fifteenth street. Detectives llelt
feld and Devereeso were immediately sent
to the scene of the loss and soon located
a large part of the sum In currency hid
under rugs, in books and other places In
that part of the Grosso homo which Is
rented by the Jones family.
Upon the arrival of Mrs. Jones, who had
been away working during the afternoon,
It was demanded that she produce the
balance of the money, which had been
changed from gold to paper money. Hys
terics Immediately seized lirr and Police
Surgeon Hnrrls had to be called to tarj
for the woman. She and her son were
locked up in the matron's ward at the
police station and the detectives waited
for her husband to return to the Iioubo In
the evening. '
Jones was arrested when he came home
from work. He says he did not know
how much money was contained In the
bag and that his wire had handled it
almost alone. According to their state
ments, they had considered the find h
Godsend and had kept tho money with
the hope that no one would claim It.
Sickness Is said to have harassed the
family and the claim Is made that Its
support depended upon the uncertain
work of the husband and the wife and
the selling of papers by the son on the
street. Jones is a lather and Mrs. Jones
does any kind of work, such as washing
or other house work which she can secure.
All three members of the Jones family
are - being held at the police station as
suspicious characters and all but $"6 of
the money hid by Grosso has been re
covered. It is not known whether Grosso
will desire the prosecution of tho peo
ple, and It la thought that a case against
them will be hard to secure, as the money
was not stolen and only a few dollars
has been spent.

President Castro urges tho people to "sur

the fulfillment of his high mission as If
It were I myself."
The president of Venezuela Is suffering
from an Internal abscess In tho region of
the kidneys, and his attending physicians
long ago advised him that the only pos
sible relief was In an operation by s Ger
man specialist. At that time there did
not appear to be any Imminent danger and
President Castro decided to postpone the
trip to Europe as long as possible. When
it was announced a few days ago that tiie
president had finally determined upon pro
ceeding to Europe, Caracas was all ex

rying out this program were the subject
of discussion throughout the city wherever

Venezuela, and It 1s now felt that extra
ordinary pressure must have been brought
to bear upon him In order to have him
