Cairo, Hi., Special: On the spot where his gorilla-like hands had fastened about the neck of a whito girl until life had departed from her body,

win james paid the penalty for his revolting crime at the hands of 10,000 men and women of Cnlro, Illinois. This tasto for blood was but a drop In the bucket to tho mob. There were other men in the Jail who had committed crimes that stained the fairname of the city. "On to the jail!" was the cry after James's body had been reduced to ashes, and thither the mob hastened. The mob, after battering down a steel cell in the county Jail here, took out Henry Salamcr, a white man, charged with the murder of his wife last August, and lynched him. Vengeance was on every tongue as James was torn from the grasp of the sheriff, and the cry of vengeance was echoed as the trembling wretch was yanked into space, dangling from a rope. The hemp rope gave way under the strain of the giant body, and before

aeain relieved the negro of his suffering the strands parted. Fearful that their victim might escape any possible meter of punishment, revolvers and rifles flashed and Into the prostrate body, shot after shot was poured. Still the blood-thirsty mob was not satisfied. Possibly a spark of life still remained, and if so, It must bo torn from the mass of quivering flesh. Tearing fencing and signboards from their places, a huge fire was started In the middle of tho street, and the body and fagots saturated with oil and the torch applied by a woman. Shouts of exulting triumph was her reward, and like maniacs, the gloating men, transformed from peaceable

citizens to a rabble which knew no mercy when their homos and daughters were In danger, danced about the pyre in ecstacy. Women took the lead in all the horrible work of the mob. A woman pulled the rope, a woman touched the match to the fire. Women spurred fathers, brothers and sweethearts to deeds of vengeance like the Amazons of history. The lynching was the result of the murder of Miss Annie Peltey, a pretty factory girl. Hloodhounds took up the scent from the gag In the girl's mouth and went directly to James's house, and when he was taken to Jail, followed tho scent to the door of his cell. Snlzncr's crime for which ho suffered at tho hands of the second mob, was a brutal one, according to the evidence. One night last July Salzner's wife was found at her home with her skull fractured and a blood-covered ax was found under the bed. The two babies were playing In tho blood. Salzncr had been seen by neighbors about tho house early in the evening and after the crime was discovered he was found at the homo of his mother, where he often slept nt night. All evidence pointed to Salzner as the slayer and Mrs. Salzner recovered enough to accuse her husband.

NOTED FRENCH MURDER COMES TO AN END.

CASE

DRAMATIC SCENE IN COURT Fair VIdow Acquitted of Double Murder Charge and Frenchmen Applaud.

Paris, Cable: Mine. Margherlta Stoinheil has been acquitted by a Jury or the murder of her husband, Adolphe Steinholl, a noted painter, and her stopmother, Mine. Japy. To some degree sentiment and a stuffy, crowded courtroom, favored the prisoner, and tho delay caused much apprehension. With tho first appearance of the Jurymen, however, several of whom were smiling, an instinctive feeling of acquittal Hashed through the .courtroom. A dramatic scene followed. The red-robed Judges and counsel filed In and took their places. Every eye was riveted on the door through which the prisoner should enter, but she did not appear. M. de Valles, the presiding Judge, turned to the Jury and said: "Have you reached a verdict?" Tho foreman arose and replied: "On our conscience we answer 'no'

to every question."

A salvo of "bravos" followed this

announcement and a perfect bedlam

broke loose. M. Aubln, counsel for Mme. Steinhell, embraced his col

leagues.

Men and women In the rear of the

hall Jumped and screamed for joy.

The Judge threatened to clear the

courtroom, and, when a semblance of order was restored, he called:

"Bring in the accused. Fully two minutes passed before the

black-robed figure with a white face

drooping on her breast appeared in

the doorway, supported on either side

by a gendarme.

The woman swayed and seemed to

be fainting, but in response to a wild outburst of cheers she lifted her head

and looked about, smiling faintly In acknowledgment.

Then she tottered forward and sank on the floor beside the rail. When the Judge pronounced the verdict her faint murmur of thanks was hardly heard. An Instant later M. Aubln was over the rail, lifting her in his arms. The crowds surged forward in a solid wall, making the rafters ring with cheers. Outside tho gloomy court the first of thousands who had been waiting for hours took up the cry. Special editions of the papers spread the news like wildfire through the boulevards, where thousands more wore waiting In front of the cafes, and the same scenes of rejoicing were wit

nessed there.

The murder of the distinguished

painter, Adolphe Steinheil, and his mother-in-law on the night of May 31, 190S. caused a sensation in Paris.

They were found strangled in the artist's residence In tho Rue de Vaug-

lrard, which adjoins the studio of Seymour Thomas, the American portrait

nalnter. Mme. Steinbeil was found

gagged and bound to a bed. Mme. Steinheil, when she recovered

sufficiently from the shock, gave a de

fection of the alleged assassins, who, according to her story, numbered four, including a red-haired woman. Later Mme. Stelnhell told many conflicting stories, and was herself arrested and charged with tho crime. The motive was found in her hatred for her stepmother and a desire to rid herself of her husband that she might marry Maurice Borderel, a wealthv merchant, who had become Infatuated with her. The hearings began Nov. 1, and dramatic scenes have characterized them throughout.

Cattleman Will Be Hanged. Unsln, Wyo., Special: The Jury in tho case of Herbert L. Drink, one of the seven cattlemen charged with the murder of three sheepmen in the Tensleep country, returned a verdict of murder In the first degree. Tho verdict carries the death sentence.

Earl Bullock, aged 17 years, of Lawrence, Kan., bank robber and triple murderer, calmly placed the muzzle of his revolver In his mouth and pulled the trigger. The bullet tore through the young bandit's throat and passed out at the neck. The boy Is dying. Bullock twice wlthln-tbo last month has robbed the Eudora State Bank. Within the last week he shot and killed two men who attempted to capture him. About a month ago the young murderer slew a policeman.

IN INDIA EVIDENCED BY DEADLY BOMB

HURLED AT VICEROY MINT0

Heroism and Promptness of Attendants Ward off Infernal Machines Which Fail to Explode.

Armcdabad, British India, Cable:

That the spirit of revolt is spreading

in India was shown Sunday by an attack made by discontents on the lives

of Lord and Lady Minto.

The Viceroy and his wife have been

here for a week's stay at one of the

viceregal castles and were riding through the city. While driving through a narrow

lane In the park two bombs were thrown at their carriage by a young man in native dress, apparently a student.

A dragoon, who was riding along

side of the carriage, spurred forward

and struck the first bomb heroically with the back of his saber, hurling It some distance away Into a sand heap.

The second bomb luckily struck an

umbrella which was held by the Vice

roy jemldar, a native lieutenant, over Lady Minto'6 head, and the quick action of the jemldar made it rebound to the ground. Neither bomb exploded, the soft sand acting as a buffer. An examination of the infernal machines revealed the fact that they contained picric acid, and the carriage would havo been undoubtedly wrecked and the occupants killed had they been exploded anywhere near the ve

hicle. The bomb throwers made their es

cape in the excitement, and though police and detectives are scouring the

city and environs no arrests havo yet

been made.

For a year or more there have been many instances of violence on the part of the Indian Revolutionists, who

are bound to end British rule in India

This is the second attempt that has

beea made on the life of Lord Mlnto.

Attempts have also been made to assassinate Lord Kitchener, Sir Andrew Frascr. the Lieutenant Governor of

Bengal, and many other officials. It will be recalled that only a short time ago a fanatic Indian student in London killed General Sir "Wylle during a reception in the Indian Office.

Spring Valley, 111., Special: The most appalling mine disaster in the history of the Unlt6d States occurred Saturday afternoon In the little town of Cherry, seven miles north of this place.

An explosion of coal gas In the upper works of the St. Paul Mine is believed to have choked out the lives of between 400 and 500 men who were

working tnere. Some few survivors, blackened by smoko and singed by flame, have crawled from reeking crevices In the earth to tell an Incoherent story of the almost Inconceivable horrors in the corridors below. The rest are still in the flame-swept works, strangling slowly in the afterdamp or making their last desperate stand against fire and smoke In the stub-ends of the corridors, to which they fled In terror after the explosion. When the searchers quit their strenuous endeavors Sunday night the imprisoned men in the shaft had been cut off for a period of nearly 30 hours. Hope departed from even the most optimistic hearts with the passing of daylight, and the village of Cherry Is crushed and stunned in the grip of the great tragedy. A quiet, more ominous than the hysteria of Saturday night, when women cried, sang and yelled in the frenzy of varying emotions, haB settled upon the town. Everywhere are widows and orphans, with sorrow-set faces and eyes dimmed by long weeping. Ghastly In Its weirdness, a vigil was kept all night at the sealed mouth of tho shaft by a score of women whose husbands lay 500 feet below. The cause of the catastrophe Is as follows: The main air shafts both descend to the lower level and a wide gallery runs from one to the other at the 380-foot level. A car containing six bales of hay was on this gallery en route to the stables, where the mine mules are housed, and Alexander Rosenjack, a young American, who works at the cage at the main shaft, got too close to the hay and It ignited from his lamp. Immediately the hay flared up and just as quickly almost every one in the vicinity was panic stricken. The driver started to run the car toward the air shaft, with the Intention of dumping the load into the slump, where there Is always water, but In some manner he got so confused that the first thing the others knew the car was being backed toward the main shaft. Again It was started toward the air shaft, but all this time at the top of the air shaft had been pouring down Into the main shaft a terrific stream of fresh air, which fanned the flames into a furnace heat. This same stream of air, coming

down the shaft constantly, keeps tho planking of the shaft and at the entranco to the gallery dry as a bone, notwithstanding the fact that It is regularly sprinkled, along with all the remainder of the mine. In accordance with the state law. By the time the hay had been burning for only a few minutes this planking caught fire and then bedlam broke loose.
