In the presence of one of the biggest crowds assembled In the police court room In some time, Luther Frailer, a negro 21 years of age, was arraigned Friday morning before Recorder Broyles and was bound over to the su perior court In 95,000 bond on the charge of attempting to assault Miss Orrle Bryan, pretty 18-year-old daugh ter of Professor Thomas L. Bryan, of 282 Courtland street, Thursday night, shortly after 9 o'clock. In the court room the glrl'f father made an effort to strike the negro. At the conclusion of the trial, a great crowd of # men gathered In Decatur street In' front of the police station and the officers feared that violence might be attempted. In order to take no chances with the prisoner, Detec- Sergeant Lanford and Police Gall Officer Dorsett transferred him Imme diately to the Tower, slipping him out of the station through the detention ward and out of a side gate, opening to Butler street. The maneuver wns successfully ex ecuted, the crowd In front of the prlsifn having not the slightest Idea that the negro bud been transferred. No weapons were exhibited by the crowd and no threats of lynching were beard by the officers, but the size of the crowd anti the nature of the crime barged to the negro, together with the present strained situation, caused them to be on their guard. During the progress of the trial the spectators crowded about the negro und the Judge's stand and It was ap parent that the case had stirred In tense Interest. Heverul officers stood In the crowd In close proximity to the prisoner throughout the henring, pre pared to check any possible outbreak. Father Was Frantie. In giving his testimony, Professor Bryan exhibited much feeling and nt one point It appeared as though he mid attack the negro. As he told of the brutal attack on his daughter the father turned suddenly pale nnd trem bled us though nlmost unable to re strain himself. In telling that the ne- •o called his daughter "honey" and hi her he loved her, the Indignant father made a movement toward the prisoner, hut restrained himself from striking. The offense of Frailer wns commit ted at the Bryan home nml wns one of the boldest of the series of fiendish crimes that have of late horrified and aroused this community. Bulling off hat, shoes and trousers ami hiding them beside n fence, the negro slipped the Bryan home, while Professor Bcyan wiui absent, and attacked the family. Getting Into a bed room, In which ore Mrs. Bryan and her two daughters. Misses orrle nnd Brin, the negro made rush for Miss orrle, brandishing a shoe In one hand und striking ut her. As he did so, he exclaimed; "Honey, I love you." Rushsd Into Closet. Hushing Into a closet, Miss orrle rked the door und thus saved herself. Mrs. Bryun und Miss Brin In the mean time had dashed out of the room nnd ere screaming frantically for help. The negro, falling to setae Miss Orrle, then ran after Mrs. Bryan, hut she sue- ceded In eluding him, the screams having by thls’tlme brought assistance. Another family resides upstairs In ie house ami these people, together It It several neighbors, hurried to the •ene. the negro being captured before » could make his escape. He was held the citizen* until the arrival of Police rail Officers Dorsett, Hulsey and Holcome and Patrolman Bradley, who sent him to the police station. Mob Had Gathered. When the officers arrived they found a considerable crowd on the scene nnd threats of lynching were being freely made. Had the police been a few min utes later, the prisoner might have been mobbed. At once realizing the situation, the officers pushed through the crowd nnd rescued the negro. After their arrival there was no further trouble. Frazier Informed Judge Broyles he was drinking Thursday night and had no recollection whatever of his conduct. Witnesses, however, testified that Frasier appeared perfectly sober at the time of his arrest. It was also shown that the negro had been seen loafing about the front of the house shortly before his attack. Professor Bryan was nbsent at the time at the Young Men's rhrlstlan Association building and a few minutes before the negro entered the house Miss Krln telephoned her father. Frailer Is supposed to have been listening out side and to have thus assured himself that Professor Bryan was away. In addition to the charge of attempt ed criminal assault. Judge Broyles held the negro on the charge of attempted burglary. SHOTS FIRED AT SAVING BLACK Militia Called Out at Midnight---Wild Scenes. by WALTER BALLARD OP- TICAL CO.

The Identification of a negro named Charlie Clayton, who Is known "Troy,” as the man who committed the assault on Mrs. Dottle Kimball, near Oakland City, Thursday, seems almost complete. After he was brought to Jail from the Fort McPherson barracks about 1 o'clock Friday morning he was guarded by parts of companies K, and L of the Fifth regiment, state militia, until 6 o'clock, when the troops were withdrawn. Friday morning Marshal Ed Ryan, of Oakland City, brought several white citizens nnd negroes living near the scene of the crime to the Jnll nnd took a look at the negro., Without an ex ception, they asserted positively that he Is u negro Who was seen Thursday morning on Oakland avenue with blue overalls on nnd a khaki army coat over his arm, and who has been loafing In the neighborhood several days. On the other hand. Flank Hughes, who lives about a mile and a half to ward the city from the Kimball home, says that he und members of his fami ly are prepared to sivenr that between noon and 2 o’clock Thursday the ne- grp was not away from the house more than fifteen minutes. The assault was committed about 1:15 o'clock. riayton was captured about 10 o'clock by a posse of citizens from whom he wns tnken by Marshal Ryan and County Policeman Wright nnd locked up nt the Fort McPherson guard house. Upon request of. Sheriff Nelms, who went after the prisoner In the automo bile of Henfroe Jackson, the Cnlted States officers turned Clayton over tt> him and the negro was brought to the Tower In a sensational drive through a mob, which had.gathered at Oakland City. Besides Hherlff Nelms and Mr. Jackson. Deputy Sheriff Daniel and Mr. E. P # McDonald, Jr., were In the car. 1 As Messrs. Wright nnd Ryan were going through the gate Into the mili tary reservation some one In the mob which had captured Clayton fired at them, but County Policeman Burnn knocked up the arm of the umn will the pistol to make him shoot high. Within three minutes after the ns sault had been reported, a few minutes after its occurrence Thursday. Marshal Ryan and several others were at Mr. Kimball's home, anti within half an hour county officers and citizens and a few soldiers from Fort McPherson had begun the hunt for the assailant. Bloodhoundt on Trail. Half nn hour Inter C. II. Robinson arrived with Sunny Jim, nn English bloodhound, and a short time thereafter had got onto the trail of the negro. The tracks which the dug followed cor responded exactly with footprints made by the negro ris he fled from the Kim ball home. These showed that he had come to and gone from the house by the same route. The trail was lust ut the Cainp- hellton rood, after leading for several miles through swamps and fields, the road the trucks started toward At lanta, hut were soon lost, the negro evidently having caught a wagon. After the woods, within a radius of several miles from the house, lmd been closely examined, the men on the hunt took another tact. Olin Henden wi taken In custody and placed In the Oakland City lockup, olin hail told the officers that he had known the negro who committed the crime, and that he had been loafing In the neighborhood for the past. week. He said at first that he did not know the man's name, hut later said he believed It was Troy. This Is the name by which Mr. Hughes’ family knew their servant. Olin was taken from the lockup nnd brought to the police station by his 4 4 COFFEE DOESN ’T HURT ME 4 Tale* That Are Told.

Brent early In the evening, and about fifteen minutes later a mob appeared on the scene, with the demand that they be allowed to take the negro and force him to tell of the whereabouts of the criminal. They were told that the pris oner had been taken away, but they had to he gliown, nnd several men picked up a big piece of stone nnd hurled It against the lock until It had been smashed. During this disorder several men In the crowd fired off their pistols and kept up a regular full-grown riot, to such nn extent that Marshal Ryan thought best to ask Sheriff Nelms for assistance. The sheriff In turn deter mined to ask Governor Terrell to order out the militia. Troops Ordered Out. When Sheriff Nelms decided to com municate * with the Governor It was found that the chief executive wns at the Bryan dinner nt the Piedmont. A telephone call, was sent to the hotel and shortly afterwards Sheriff Nelms went to the dinner und had a short talk with Governor;Terrell. Captain Palmour was In the corridor of the hotel and at fmee busied himself ommuqlcotlng with his men. Bur ton Smith, adjutant of the regiment, wns acting as toastmaster, but he ab sented himself from the room until he could Inquire Into the trouble. The din ner wns several times interrupted by calls for Colonel Clifford Anderson nnd other officers of the regiment, but no announcement that the troops had been usked for was made and the diners were left In Ignorance that any trouble was brewing. The soldiers who could be reached started for Oakland City, but it was found that the trouble there had sub sided, and that they might be needed more at the Jail, where the Clayton negro hod been taken. The militia, with Hherlff Nelrp* and several deputy sheriffs and county policemen, stayed at the Jail until 6 o’clock. The Clayton negro was captured near the Standard oil mill near the United States barracks nnd by the time the crowd which cuught him had got In front of the military reservation it had swelled until It numbered fully 500 men, all bent on getting the negro Identified and killing him right away.

During Thursday afternoon three or four negroes were captured by the posses and brought before Mrs. Kim ball, but she did not Identify any of them and they were turned loose. The crowd hanging around the house all afternoon was ready to believe on the slightest provocation unother suspect had been caught nnd made their way to the house ready to kill the prisoner should he be identified. These were mostly old men who could not actively join In the chase, hut who wanted to be In nt the death. As the automobile of Dan C. Lyle, In hich Marshal Ryan and Lieutenant of County Police W. J.

Little hope Is felt for the success of Secretary Taft's mission to Cuba. In the opinion of army and navy officers the Insurgent forces In Cuba do not Intend to make peace, but are playing their game with the hope of American Intervention, which they would wel come with pleasure.
