DECISION REACHED. i For Assault of Mrs. Clark Joe Wash ington Meets Horrible Death. Savannah, Aug. 12.—Eighteen miles I south of Savannah, 011 the lme of the Terrible Fa Seaboard Air Line railway, the charred trunk of the boaj- of Joe Washington, the negro assailant of Mrs. J. J. Clark, is all that remains to tell the story of the dreadful tragedy of Saturday night. Washington was captured at Liberty City, and was brought to Ways Station, near which place his crime was commit ted. He was carried before Mrs. Ciark, who identified him positively as the ne gro who had assaulted her. The proof of his guilt was absolutely conclusive, and includes circumstances that can scarcely be hinted at iu print. The negro’s positive identification by his victim sealed his fate. There was a mob of 400 men who ciamored for his life, but the leaders of the mob, num bering less than a dozen, carried into execution the plans of vengeance they had formed. The rest of the mob was kept at a distance, and was not per mitted to come within 100 yards of the place where Washington met his death. This was at a spot a few feet from the railway track, and not 500 yards from the house in which the uegro committed the crime, for which he paid so dreadful a penalty. He walked" to his death without a tremor, and met it without a prayer or an appeal for mercy. Along the side of the railway track a crowbar was driven into the earth. To this Washington was forced, bound to it in a sitting position and a torch applied to the fat pine wood piled around him. Washington admitted his guilt of crimes incident to the principal one which proved his guilt of that. But to the eud he stubbornly refused to ac knowledge that he had assaulted Mrs. Clark.

St. Louis, Aug. 13.—Meager infor mation has been received at the offices of the general superintendent of the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railroad regarding the holdup of passenger train No. 4, near Cauey, L T., at 1 a. m. this morning. Five men boarded the train, which is a local, at Caney, while the engine was taking water. Caney consists of little else than a telegraph station and a wa ter tank. The men forced an entrance into the baggage and express car with dynamite, but it is not known how much booty they obtained. It ic said by the officials that the American Express safe contained a small amouut of money. After looting the baggage car the rob bers turned their attention to the pas senger coaches, robbing the occupants. No statement as to the amount obtained from them is to be had. When the rob bers left the train it proceeded south. The United States marshal was noti fied ana immediately raised a posse and went in pursuit of the robbers. It is believed by the officials of the road that the robbers mistook rue local for the “Katy Flyer,” which follows a little later. This train usually carries a big safe in the express car and a large number of through passengers. ! His Leaving, It Is Thought, Will Put an End to 1 rouble at Tampa.

Charleston, Aug. 13.—A man who returned to the city from the up-coun try brought back as a souvenir a thrill ing story of an attack made on a white woman by a mad tom cat. According to his account the woman was walking in the yard when, without warning, the i cat made a vicious luuge and planted ] its sharp teeth just below her throat, j The grip was so strong aud powerful that the woman could not break it. Her cries attracted members of the family. When they attempted, however, to take | the cat away the grip had evidently turned to lockjaw, and the animal could not be removed. The woman’s suffer ing was terrible. A final effort was made to free her from the cat, but this was not accomplished until the animal’s head had been completely served from its body. Even after death the teeth clung to the flesh in a vise-like grip. The wound was cauterized and at last reports the woman was improving. It was said that before attacking the woman the cat had bitten other animals, and in the same neighborhood other cats bad as saulted their owners. The fear of hy drophobia was so great that ail dogs in the immediate vicinity of the woman’s home have been blocked and chained. Resistencia Case Will Be Referred to Spanish Minister.
