was alone in the farmhouse when Dolby, J
who had just been let out of the Washing- <
ton Courthouse jail, after serving a sen
tence for r. misdemeanor, called and de
manded something to eat. As she turned to
give an alarm, he seized her and, throwing
her to the floor, ravished her and left her

I • terday Dolby was arrested on suspicion
.1 being the guilty man. at Delaware, 0., j
I and the sheriff arrived at Washington coart-
I house early this morning. He was taken
fl to the Boyd farm and jraaitively id-’ntitle I
fl by Mrs_ Boyd anti a neighbor who saw
fl him as Tie left the house.
fl Thr-ats wen.- made so freely against the
fl prisoner, that Sheriff Cook took special
fl precautions against being surprise*! at the
fl ' jail by a meh. and called out the local
fl company of militia. Th* t:oops are now
fl dismissed, but are under arms at flu ir
fl homes, ready to respond in a moment’s
fl notice to the sheriffs call, while at tho
fl jail he r.ns a strong barricade. Tin* col-

Howe ordered out. as additional fore®,
battery B of the first artilh ry at Cincinnati.
Sheriff Cook, of Fayette county, tele
graphed General Howe as foliowx: "The
rumor Is correct. Three have been killed
ard eight or ten wounded.
The first message was received from Col
onel A. B. Coit, in command of the state
troops al Washington Courthouse, since
the report of the assault,al W o’clock to
night. It was addressed to General J. C.
Howe, and was as follows:
"Your telegrams just received. N » re
inforcements have yet arrived. We can
hold the courthouse for hours. The duOi’S
were broken in and the guards tired on
the mob. lie|*orled to us that two w. re
killed and three v.ouuded. It is re jratt-d to
tlie sheriff that the mob has broken into
the powder hous;; and tak* u tin- powder.
It is the inert determined mob I ever saw.
The tioops u«ed every precaution. Th**
sheriff and Judge Maynard approved *>ur
action. 1 pl* ade I and bogged of the men

At 10 o'clock the troops from Marysville

a special train over the Midland railway,
it is thirty-seven miles from here to Wash

the railway company to send th** train
forward at the utmost speed. He has ar
ranged that the train bearing th** Cin*-in
uati troops shall reach there about lite

--tion about having a sutlicient force on th**
ground to control the mob wlien the first

There Meeting Hero Will Bring Over a

from All Over the Country.
Atlanta has captured another great con
vention -the annual convention of the
strongest organization in America.
The next convention of the American
Bankers’ Association will convene in At
lanta just one year from now . '1 welve hun
dred of tin- ablest liiia**.<*i**rs in this country
will gather in this city for a week’s con
vention end to see Atlanta’s superb exposi
tion.
Captain Robert *L Lowry returned Mon
day morning from Baltimore, where he
went to attend the annua! meeting of th"e
Ameti an (Bunkers’ Association in that
«*it\. He comes home with great enthusi
asm, proud of the fact that he has succeed
ed in th** splendid mission which look him
to Baltimore.
The selection of a place of meeting for
the convention is nut determined by. the
organization, but is left *>> the executlte
committee, of this committee Mr. Morris
Whit**, an,able banker from Cincinnati, and
the. retiring president of the national or
ganization. is chairman. Mr. Justee. the
prominent Nashville banker, is also ;*. mem
ber of the committee, un<l both v.* in. to
w*>t*< for Atlanta Iwo or three days b*'.oi**

luen enlisted by Captain Lowry. The re
sult is that the commilt.e is unanimously
in favor of bringing; the next convention
here, and tire committee has given Captain
laiv.ry assurance that they will select At
lanta.
•Yes," said Captain Lowry last night,
with a happy smile, “you may say that
the next convention will come to Atlanta.
I am certain of that. It will b• a big thing'
for us. There will be fully 1.2U0 repr senta
tive business men of th’* country h" re. and
jou may readily estimate the advantage
to Atlanta that su It a gathering will mean.
*"I found the feeling among th** bankers,
* oncerning business, very good. Tiu'.v s* tn
i * f* ri that the country is in fairly good

fallen upon every part of the country

The n w plan is called the Baltimore plan,
and it is one that found among th.* bankers

Captain Lowry favored the Baltimore
plan, and believes that it contains man.*'
Splendid feature. Besides speaking of this
plan, he says that Allante is going to have

Mr. William l‘. St. ,f*>hn, president of the
Mercantile National, was among the few
New York bankers present at tlie conven
tion. To the surprise of many of the dele
gates he look no pan in th ■ proceedings.
To a newspaper man .Mr. St. John said:
"1 was not invite,l to prepare a pap**r
on any topic for this occasion. 1 eaiue as
a listener, hoping also to be a learner. 1

tiie American Bankers’ Association by tlie
Associated Banks of Baltimore.
"Tiie prime top!*- fur the consideration
ot tne convention had be*-n announced ns
a prop >sition to be submitted and recom
mended by tin- Assoi'iillv*i Banks of Bal
timore. Details of the proposition were
not furnished in advance. It <iid not seem
a part of prudence to corulcmti lightly a
proposal hailing from bankers of such es
teem for vonsetVatism ami sagacity, ami
it is not my habit to antagonize on the first
objection any business-like proposal. Fur
thermore. the Baltimore bank*-r wh*< intro
duced tliis Baltimore proposal did so in
terms that were so exceedingly considerate
of the feelings ami possible objections oi
metnl»ers present, that. I should have seem
ed to myself tils** one carele-s of tic* amen
ities of ';* dinner table to interj t anything
controversial into th** proceedings.
“Equally unrestri* i***l coinage for gold
and silver, bi-metallism, national or inter
national, was nut a’l 'imiouneed topi** of
tliis convention. .My views, which 1 have
not hesitated to advot tte on any proper
occasion, are not favorable to an* increase
of bank notes or other substitutes for
money until we are first made certain
of a Hurtivlently broad base of primary
mon**y, growing with its substitutes in
vohnne amt toady tor their redemption.
Much that passes fur true *n theory i ". in
fact, impracticable. Many so-call.-d ‘sound
op inions’ are based on inaccuracies. *’ur
e,.*it conditions ought,' to shrttter some
false notions. We witness the dollar ot the
United States mor** jratenr. as nr an*-* of
acquiring th** great products of labor than
for i*r*ny years, and r. L lit*’ sum" tim** a ;
impotent to yield income for the use <*f it
as at any tim,* in our lu-tory—th** dollar
commanding two bushels o’ wheat in
Chi. ago wiioe earning only 1 per cent per

A While Citizen of 'Riuulolph T.eaves
AH His Froperty.
Cuthbert. Ga.. October 17.-(Speclal.i—One
of tlu* most remarkable papers ever ad
mitted to ord iu Randolph county was
the will of th- iat-* Jacob IL Jeffries, who
died on the 12th instant. Jeffries was a
white man, and on account of his long r* s
-1 idenee in tiie county, his prominent family
cornections, it makes the matter a;l the
more peculiar and interesting.
He Was a Mnn.
Jeffries had always be**n known as a pe
culiar individual. He it was who possessed
‘ considerable property' and people hid l»
come acquainted with that fact. It was
‘ furth-r tni’i* rstood that he held most of it
in ready' cash, ami that he carried it in a
lielt around itis waist. An account was
’ given in Th ■ Constitution about his coming
to Cuthbert about two years ago. getting on
’ a drunk ami on r» turning to his home, about
six miles below Cuth,a*it. was v.*a* ic’d and
’ robbed of over |1.0*.” in gold that he had
around his waist. He never recovered this
‘ money, nor had any clue to who the parties
were. It weighed heavily upon h’*s mind
ami no doubt hastened his ueath, which oc
curred on the idtii *>f this month.
A Story of His Enrly Life.
’ The people generally km*w th*t Jeffries
owned consii.leral>ly prop**’"; . although his
apjiearanee imiieated that of a man in ab
ject poverty. A history of J firi s's early
life might throw* additional light uj *>n the
recorded tacts as set out in ills '.vill. I’:n i :g
the war Jeffries owned s. ver.il siav s.
1 among the number was a good looking :n:t
--• i lotto girl by the nam*.* ot Ali**o. When these
I ' slaves were made fr*e Jeffrie;-* kept this
:’ ■ woman Alice and they livel with each oth
: l er as man and wife, although th--.* were
I never rirfrried. As a result of this illicit
Jove ;ca*i relat’on five illegitimate children
were )>u'.n to them. Jeffrhs always looked
! , .’.-.on ami celled tli*-.*c hri children. tn*
nttnibe:* one was a girl and four boys, ’"h**
girl was .sent north ami given a good edu

* j on. six miles below* Cuthbert. He had often

I property to his children, although he had a
