Two of the Lynchings Were Daylight Affaire—One Negro Lynched by Hie Own Race. Gainesville, Fie., Jan. 15.—Jumbo Clark, a negro, was lynched at High Springs yesterday afternoon.

He was captured seven miles from High Springs and brought to High Springs and there was confronted with his victim, who identified him. Officers left with the prisoner to bring him to Gainesville, the county seat, but they were overtaken by the mob some miles from the place and the negro was taken from them and hanged to a tree.

DIG APPROPRIATION BILL Nearly Thirty Millions Required in Three Departments of Government. Washington, Jan. 15.—The house has passed the legislative, executive and Judicial appropriation bill, carrying an aggregate of $29,711,700. This is the second of the big supply measures to pass the house. By a vote of 88 to 172 the house refused to sustain the action of the com mittee of the whole which adopted an amendment striking out the paragraph providing for the salaries and ex penses of the civil service commission, thus restoring the item to the bill. An amendment to the bill was adopted restricting the use of government horses and carriages to the president, his secretary and cabinet officers. The senate listened to speeches by Mr. Newlands and Mr. Depew on the Panama canal question and to a speech by Mr. Latimer In advocacy of the adoption of a plan for the improvement of the public wagon roads of the country. Mr. Newlands declared that the course of tho president in Panama was an act of war and in contravention alike of the treaty of 1846. of international law and of the constitution of the I’nited States. Mr. Depew praised the president’s policy as patriotic and justified by precedent and law. He reviewed the history of Panama and, detailing the facts connected with the negotiations of the Hay-Herren treaty, contended that Colombia had overreached herself In her rejection of that agreement. The consideration of the postoffice department investigation resolutions was pos'poned until next Monday. Report Wat Exaggerated.
