"A
RACE RIOT IN OHIO.
(Continued from Page 1)
Jail, placed him on board a train and
sent him to Dayton for safety.
Make Plans to Curb Mob. If
The authorities anticipated mob
violence last evening and made pre
parations accordingly, but no such an
outbreak by the populace was expected
and when the crisis came last night
the police precautions proved to be
entirely Inadequate.
By dark 1,200 men had assembled in
the streets and began marching to
the Jungles." On the way two
negroes were encountered in Fountain
square. They were badly beaten be
fore they could escape.
Militia Does Not Respond.
As the people paraded the streets,
shouting and discharging firearms, the
police sought to interfere, but were
swept aside. Then Mayor Todd called
upon Companies Band E of the Ohio
National Guard, stationed here. Neith
er company responded.
Reaching the "jungles" the people
began stoning the houses and driving
the negroes, panic stricken into the
country. Kempter's saloon on Bast
Columbia street was the first building
attaoked. The interior was demolish
ed and the stock of liquor was carried
out into the street. Then the struc
ture was set on fire, and the mob mov
ed across the street to another dive,
which was also demolished.
Shouts Encourage Mob.
Shouts of "Bum all of them" rent
the air and encouraged the leaders to
wreck other buildings.
A general alarm of fire was sent In
and all the fire companies in the city
responded, but the firemen, like the
police, were powerless. As fast as a
stream of water was turned up?n the
blaze, the mob would cut the hose.
Asks Help of Governor.
When Mayor Todd learned that the
local militia companies were not mak
ing any effort to respond to his call he
called upon the company at Xenia,
hear here. The governor also was ap
pealed to for help.
The mob started last night in a man
ner identical to that of the one which
lynched Richard Dixon, the negro mur
derer, two years ago. It demolished
the buildingB in the "jungles" set them
on fire and then battered in the jail
and lynched Dixon.
Drunken Riot Is Fatal.
Mt. Carmel, 111., Feb. 28. As the
result of a drunken riot here last night
two men are dead and two others are
In jail. C. E. Dodd and J. W. Murphy
while intoxicated went to the Southern
depot and began to annoy a crowd of
men in the waiting room. Both were
ptit out, whereupon they began shoot
ing into the depot, killing two strang
ers. Public feeling is high against the
prisoners.
FORAKER MAKES SPEECH.
Continued from Page 1)
proved subsequent to its introduction.
These suggestions were made known
to the house committee and after
working until nearly 3 o'clock in the
morning the committed practically
determined to report the Dolliver bill
in its improved form. Therefore the
bill which was unimously reported by
the house''committee and all but
unanimously parsed by the house, was
in fact the Dolliver bill with the im
provements that Senator Dolliver,
himself, had made in its phraseology.
A Republican Measure.
The course of legislation is thus fol
lowed simply to make it clear that
up to this time the republicans were
responsible for the bill and entitled to
whatever credit was due.
This bill which Senator Dolliver
wrote and which was unanimously re
ported by the republican house com
mittee and overwhelmingly passed by
a republican house, has been reported
by a democrat from tho senate com
mittee on interstate commerce, to the
senate.
That by all that is fair in politics
and war Senator Dolliver should have
reported the bill, Is admitted. That he
did not report it was due to the per
sonal malice and pique of Senator
Aldrlch who was furious at having his
plans thwarted by Senator Dolliver and
who wanted a chance to hit the Presi
dent

general assembly next winter, that he
would be a member again and that In
all probability a primary election law
would be presented at that time. In
the meantime, an election wil) be held
he said, and possibly in the light of
that election the desire of the people
might be understood.
The house yesterday passed the fol
lowing appropriation bills:
Laboratory state board of health,
Iowa City, $5,000 Benedict home, Des
Moines, $3,500, and Florence Critten
den home, Sioux City, $1,000.
The house discussed at length the
bill giving boards of supervisors the
right to levy an additional mill tax
for the county road fund. The bill
passed.
Representative Cummings Introduced
a bill for the better accounting of ref
erees, executors, administrators and
commissioners.
The house killed the bill prohibiting
city officials to enter Into contract with
a city.
The house committee on. judiciary
recommended the passage of the bill
providing that the 6tate pay the cost
of prosecution in case of the admission
to the hospital for inebriates out of
the funds of the institution. It also
recommended the passage of the bill
amending the law in regard to the sale
of property seized for mulct tax. The
bill provides for the county to bid in
the property if no bids were made for
appraisement. The committee also
recommended the bill providing pun
ishment for malicious injury to build
ings or fixtures.
