onM.ratum in this city was peaceful throughout. Hy far the larger number of those who turned nut were spectators. only about 5.000 men taking part in the parade. The only incident of note was the seizure by the police of two red tings as the procession passed Clark and Madison streets, und the arrest of the bearers. There was no show of resistance, although the police were well prepared for such an emergency, about 1 ,.00 ofliecrs, most of them in citizen's clothes, being distributed along the line of march. The speaking at the meetings on the lake front was listened to by large crowds, which were very mild in their expressions of approval. hen the men who bore the captured flags were taUt^n before the mayor and chief of police, one of them, who acted as spokesman for the party, said they were told to carry the llags by the societies ti» which they belonged. They declared they were socialists, not anarchists. They claimed that as the stars and stripes are the colors of this country, so red is the color of all countries. It is the international tlag. Chief McClaughrey then said: "We luive nothing utfainst you personally, but you must not carry roil Itiijrs when we order you not to do. If you are jrood Aiwriran citizens thu .stars ami .stripes should be carried and not the colors of anarchy. You ap]H*ar to be, and 1 believe arc, honest, hard-working men, and yon say you did not understand that orders had been sent out regarding n.'d flag's. If 1 thought you did so understand and carried the fin^s in detlanee of orders I would put you in cells and have you before the court*. Hut you may return to your place in tho procession. We will kenp the lla^s here. We will not destroy them, but we don't want them in the procession."

After having the red sashes stripped from them tho four men were permitted to leave.

Later in the afternoon a committee of workingmen belonging to the building trades' council called on Chief MeClanghry, examined the (lags and denounced the whole affair as an outrage. The committee will endeavor to have tho building trades' council take otlicial eognizaeec of the affair and take proper action upon it.

Eight hundred boiler-workers and iron ship builders of branch 1 and those of South Chicago belonging to branch 42 went out on a strike at midnight Saturday. There has been trouble in their ranks for some time, and a committee has been sent to the different shops in the city to confer with-the proprietors about granting nine hours a day and raisiug the wages. The minimum rate asked was S2.75 and it was further demanded that boiler workers getting more than that sum for nine hours should not be reduced. The employers' refusal to comply with the demand caused the strike.

I.YNCIIKI).

Nasiiviu.k, Tenii., May 2.—The attempted lynching of Hph Grizzurd (colored) Friday night by citizens, which was prevented by the bravery of the ollieers in charge oft he jail, culminated Saturday afternoon in a snceeseful earrying out of the original purpose, and the negro was hanged from the bridge over the Cumberland river. Not content with hanging the fiend the vigilantes riddled the body with bullets as it dangled at the end of the rope.

Two pii Wounded.

In the fusillade which was exchanged between the barricaded ollieers an.l the mob Friday night it has developed that two of the hitter's men were mortally wounded. They were Allen B. Guthrie and Charles Rear, two young men of this place, und both are now lying at the point of death in the hospital. Guthrie is shot through the lung, while Hear is suffering from a wound in the abdomen.

Another AttilrU.

After dispersing in the early hours of the morning the mob disban'ded. The dawn, however, brought news of the organization of another and stronger mob. and the city was in a high state, of exitement throughout the day. The streets iu the vicinity of the jiiil were jammed with people, and the arrival of the mob was expected at any hour.

At noon the crowd around the jail began to grow dense and the threatened attack was feared at any moment. Grizzttrd was attired in a woman's dress preparatory to being taken to a place of- safety. Hefore this attempt at escape could be executed the long-expected assault occurred. The mob was much more orderly and better organized than on the previous night and everything was conducted in a businesslike manner.

Committee Sent to the ,IhII.

A committee of three was appointed to wait on Jailer James Willis and demand the. keys. Seeing the utter uselessness of further resistance the jailer yielded up the keys. Meanwhile the men on the outside had crowded up to the jail and at intervals during the wait of ten minutes cheers rose to cheer those who had gone within. Thousands of spectators crowded to suffocation every avenue leading toward the jail, but tlicy kept a respectful distance fi'oin the mob of 1,000 which crowded up against and hung oil to the iron bars in front of the jail. I

IritKE«il

to I li Demit.

Then the committee of three appeared, and between them was the black head of Hph Grizzard. Not a shot had been fired, and no sound save intermittent cheering had been made. Hut at the sight of the black fiend mob and spectators alike cheered until the sound must have been heard in all parts of thu city. A wi rush was then made for the square, those about him slapping his head with open palms and Epli crying: "Quit hitting me and I'll go." From the square the mob turned on to the bridge.

IIow.llu Wuh Kxpruteil.

A hemp rope three-quarters of an inch thick was quickly twisted into a hangman's knot and jerked about the negro's head. The other end was tied, several knives were plunged into the negro's head arid Epli Grizzard was thrown into space. The drop was IS feet., but the neck seemed not to have .been broken, ns the negro's hands clutched the under braces, lint uo sooner was this noticed by the hundreds of heads leaning over the railing that those on the bridge having Winchester rifles began firing into the body by leaning far out over the water. Even in this the mob was deliberative, as not a shot was fired until a fisherman on the river bank was warned to get out of the way.

The body was cut down at 4 o'clock and an inquest was held by Deputy Coroner Combs. The jury returned a verdict that Grizzard came to his death from strangulation and gunshot wounds at the hands of parties nnknowy to the jury. After the inquest, the body was placed in a pine cotlln and again turned over to the mob, who placed it aboard a train and carried it back to Goodlettsvillc. Large crowds met the train at stations along the road and cheered the train as it passed. After being exhibited at Goodlettsville the body was turned over to an undertaker.

If 1m Crime.

The crime for which Grizzard met such an awful fate was revolting. Last Wednesday night Epli and Henry Grizzard broke into tho house of Mrs. Lee lirucc. a toll-gate keeper, half a mile east of Goodlettsville. a small station on the southeastern division of the Louisville Nashville road, and attacked her two daughters. Misses Mary and Kosina. llenry Grizzard wus lynched Wednesday last.
