NEGRO IS LYNCHED
AT LARAMIE, WYO.
Truaty In County Jail, He Attacked
White Girl in Kitchen, Slashing Her
With a Razor.
LA HA MIR, Wy.. Aug. 29.—Joe
Martin, colored, waa lynched by a mob
of 200 men In front, of Judge Carpen
ter's house tonighL Martin waa a
truaty in the county jail. He attacked
a white girl Della Krouae, in the Jail
kitchen, and alaabed her face and arma
with a knife. One man waa Injured
while entering the jail to drag out the
prisoner.
After assaulting Mlaa Krauae with a
razor, Martin Waa placed In a cell In
the county Jail. Tonight a mob of
aeveral hundred men formed outatde
the jal). The first intimation that
Sheriff Cook had of the contemplated
lynching was when two masked i
appeared In the kitchen of the Jail
house, and with guna levelled nt him,
told him that there were 200 men
waiting outalde for the negro, and that
he would better not attempt to make
any trouble for them. In the mean
time another maaked man had entered
while the first two men held
aherlff .
The two men took the keya to the
Jail from the aherlff'a pocket and then
the three atnrted for the negro's cell.
On the way. they met Dr. Miller, who
had been aummoned to dreae the two
wounds on Martin, self Indicted with
the same razor with which he had as
saulted the girl, and Turnkey Jones.
The doctor and the Turnkey were
compelled to fttund agalnat the cage of
cells with their faces turned nway
from the mob. Th negro was then
taken from his cell and hurriedly
marched shough the court house Into
the street. Arriving nt a lamp post a
short distance from the Jail the negro
was quickly strung up to the post. ZJ
During the entire proceedings the
negro did not apeak or attempt to re
sist the mob. Within an hour after
the lynching th® streets were deserted.

negroes, It seems, robbed a store, and
when pursued sought refuge In

to the house and Knnpper was the tint
to come out of the burning building.
He rushed out with a gun In hie hand
and shot Bishop down. loiter he wae
riddled with bullets. Ills pals were

mors of a lynching were aoon In the
air, and as m precautionary meunure
Governor Terrell wired CapL Capt. J.
A. Mercer of Fitzgerald ordering out
hts company. In hi* telegram to Capt.
Mercer the governor said: "Prevent

ernor Terrell telegraphed the mayor
of KHsgerald Informing him that the
entire military fores of ths state was
at his disposal If U became necessary.
Governor Terrell feels satisfied that
the local company commanded by
Capt. Mercer will prove sufficient to
keep down mob violence.
Tonight Governor Termii hod a tel
egram from CoL W. E. Wooten of Al-

Fanatical Bravery.
BT. PETERSBURG. Aug. 29, 12:50 p.
m.—Gen. Kuropatkin since yesterday
morning ha* been drawing In all hla
forces from bis eastern and southern
fronts towards Liao Yang, Anplng.
Thegow, Llandlansinn and Anshan-
shan, constituting the main positions of
the outer defense line of Lloo Yang
have boon abandoned.
The heaviest fighting occurred on the
extreme left, when* the Japanese ad
vnneed to the assault again and again
with bayonets. The positions at Tne-
gow and Anplng were held by the tenth
European corps. The attacks wore de
livered with fanatical bravery. The
Russian* lost a large proportion of of
ficers, ien guns and from 1.500 to 2,000
men, but the Russians had been gene
rally successful In beating off the as
saults all along the line, and the Rus
sians declare that the order to retire
came a* a surprise. Just when they
were expecting orders for a general ad
vnnee. This Is considered to be proof
that Gen. Kuropatkin. finding his main
positions menaced on the flank and an
t|clpntlng difficulty in withdrawing ow
ing to the condition of the roads, which
have suddenly been transformed into
mud bogs by the rain, considered that
a retreat was Imperative. The retire
ment from the east front wae greatly
Impeded by th® conversion of the Lan
river Into a mountain torrent and this
probably also accounts for the failure
of the Japanese to follow up the retir
ing Russians.
The Japanese column, moving up the
Liao river and threatening General
Kuropatkin op the west, was regarded
as extremely dangerous and Oeneral
Kurokl's extreme right seems also to
he working around Qencrnl Herschel
Mann’s position at Anplng and to be
moving toward Mukden.
The strength of the enveloping Japa
nese armies may be judged from the
fact that General Oku alone, who
coming up from the south, Is officially
reported to have 75.009 men.
The Toklo report thnt Oeneral Kuro
kl had succeeded In cutting the railroad
south of Mukden Is not confirmed by
the telegraph department, where It Is
said thnt no reports have been received
of any Interruption of communications.
Of course, it Is realized her® that If the
railroad north of Linn Yang Is out the
position of the Russian nrmy would be
rendered serious. If not desperate, as it
would probably compel General Kuro
patkln to accept an engagement against
his will. The rain which has again be
Him falling In Manchuria will probably
serve the Russians much more than the
Japanese, as tholr retlrment as toon
they reach the, railroad will not be
Impeded, whereas It Is likely to almost
completely stop the Japanese forward
movement.
BT. LOUIS* Aug. 29.—One world's
record was broken, two Olympic rec
ord* were lowered, and one Olympic
record waa equalled a* a result of the
first day’s events In the Louisiana Pur

tions met the pick of American sprint
ers, jumpers, distance and weight men
in the first six events of the contests
that will last all the week. There were
also four handicap events that re
sulted in more even competition and
gave several close finishes. Although
the earlier part of the day was threat
ening when the game* began there
wa* nothing to be desired from a
weather standpoint. While the cloud*
may possibly have kept the attendance
down, there were about five thousand
spectators present when the first heat
in the sixty metre run, the opening
event, wus run. A burst of cheering
followed the announcement of a

equalled the record at the Paris revival
of Olympic games In 1900. The second
heat was also run in record time, aa
was the final. A. Riche Hahn of Mil
waukee won this evenL
The first Olympic record to go was
broken by Joe Flanagan of the Greater
New York Irish Athletic Association,
the holder. The first essay with the
sixteen-pound hammer resulted in a
throw of 168 feet 1 Inch, exceeding the
record made by him in Pari* by 9
Inches.
The standing broad Jump brought
out a field that has never been equal
led in the history of American athe-
lltics. The first Jump, that of C. M.
King, of McKinney, Tex., exceeded the
Olympic record by 8-5 of an inch. Ray
Ewry of the New York Athletic Club,
holder of Olympic and world's records,
followed, and on his first jump beat
the Olympic record and came within
two Inches of equalling the world’s
record with a Jump of 11 feet and 2
Inches. Ewry demonstrated that his
championship form had not deserted
him. and he established a new world’s
record of 11 feet,4% Inches. Ills jump
were ns follows: 11 feet, 2 inches; 11

were In collision tonight at the West
Second street pier. None of the 200
passengers was injured, but the Cyg

There were about a hundred passen
