Still, nobody offered to take tba Initiative, and tba towns-popl wre genuinely aarprlaad yesterday morning wban It waa larnd that aom persons, who bad probably doo but llttl talking, bad iatroduoad a Western euatom Into a' quiet New-Jersey luag. and that Eaton town wu tba arena of an unpretentious but moat buttaeas-liss lynching. w- Katontown teen tha llneof tbe New-Jerser Southern Hnllroad. ia sis miles lrom Bad Hank, four B)Ma from Lung Ilrancb, and only a aula or ao from tba Monmouth Park race course.

Ha had been- la various scrape before, and to tba Fall or Ides received a bullet In tbe leg from a maq wbo proved to be a Tartar.

Mingo Jack" bad bald bin up" oa a loaaljr atretab of road not far from hiaowa bouse. Tbe man said be waa willing to give up all be bad, and to satiafy Mingo Jack" on this point put bis band In hie blp pocket, whipped out a revolver, aad planted a bullet la tbe negro's thigh. "Mingo Jack" lived lu a aiogle-atory frame bouse on tbe Poplar road, about one and one-half mllee from tbe centre of tba town. Ha bad a wife, daughter, and tbree tone. II alf almlle to tbe eaatward lived Thotnaa Ktwwart Herbert, a Carpenter br trade.

Yesterday afternoon at S. -40 she left her father house to walk to Jackson Urowa'a, Tba bouaea were three-quarters of mile apart, and toe road betweerf tbem lay through tblok pine woods. Tba alrl walked slowly. She had covered two-third of the distance wbeu she received a stunnlna blow behind the right ear. Bb staggered and, on receiving another blow oa the shoulder, fell on tbe sandy road.

Mingo Jack" aad aeen the girl enter the wooda and had followed ber. la bis light hand ha aarrled a red oak stick. 8 feet In length, snd quite heavy enough to fell a man with. He kept at a distance until tbe girl reached tha thickeet part of the wooda and then Klfcly stole upon ber. Before she was aware of preeenoa ha struck ber down.

Tbe girl, thouaa partly unconscious, recognised ber aasallant when be grasped ber by tbe arms and began fragging ber from tbe road Into tba bushes. She barred htm to release her, and, finding tbat be paid no attention, threatened to scream. "Mingo Jack" threatened if aha made any outcry to murder ber. Tba girl was unoon- Klous for some time after tbe brute bad left ir. Slowly and painfully she made ber way to Jackson Brown's bouse, where she told Mrs.

Brown of wbat bad happened. A neighbor lumped upon a horse and galloped through tbe i woods to Herbert's bouse. Hla story of tha Outrage threw tbe girl's mother Into hys-tori oe. Her father and brother vowed to take tbe negro's Ufa. But first the father and his son Joaeph drove to Brown 'a.

Tba girl, wbo waa vary weak and nervous, was carefully wrapped up and driven home. Then her father drove to Eaton town and told Squire Edwards of tbe outrage. Constable Llebentball decided to arrest Mingo Jack' without a war. taot. while Squire Edwards and Dr.

William Beach went with Mr. Herbert to procure tba girl's affidavit. lr. Beech found Mlsa Herbert In such a nervous atate tbat be adminlatered a heavy Injection Of morphine. He Informed Squire Ed wards that tha glri bad undoubtedly been assaulted.

Boa then told la detail the atorr of Samuel John. Son's assault. Her story infuriated ber father and brother. Tba old. man took down bis tbotgun from tbe wall and aald he waa deter mined to kill tba negro.

Hla wife Implored him Pot to leave ber aide, while a female friend bid be powder and shot. Qeorge Herbert ran front toe boose crying tbat be would shoot Mingo i Jock" and nourishing a to-callbre revolver, but 1T Edward Wheeler and Geo rye Milward ha Jrs Induoed to return to the bouse.

Tba etory of tba outrage flaw from bouse to bous with tha apaad of a oyclone. People talked of nothing elee aatll was one asked If "Mingo Jack" had beea arrested. Tbe town wanted to know, and It walked ea mass to tba lookup.

Everybody asrrvad tbat he waa a bad man, and tbat hanging waa too good for blna.

Hla career was dlacusaed. aad it waa discovered tbat tbia was not hla first offense of the kind. Nobody oould remember anything- good bias, aad be waa unanimously voted a bad and daneeroue man.

It I abel- tered oo the west by a couple of tatrre Toe nearest ho naa i a small frame building, occupied by William Burt ord, a colored horse trainer. Marshall Williams; another colored man, lives In tha bsxt bouse. Both men and a number of others say they heard tbree pistol shots at about midnight, Burford says be heard the voices of mea talking In tbe neighborhood of the lockup about tbe same hour, but be did not look out of bla house. He felt curious, out oonatdered It aafer to remain under cover, atepfcen Billing, a stonecutter, baa a workshop about a hundred yards from tbe lookup. When be reachel hla shoo yesterday morning he found a 15-pound sledge outside tb door.

He remembered tbat It waa Inside tbe shoo on Friday nlgbt. He always- iocks iue uoor of bis shop with a big stone, so tbst it Is not dir. Soult to open. He eaw tbat a ouantlty of aand such as is found on tbe banka of tbe pondnear tbe lockup was sticking to the aledre. He did not aee, until some New-York reporters showed it to him.

a quantity of blood oa Uae handle and alao on tbe sledge. An attempt had been made to wasn ou, nia mcujiq pivmui taken bv tha ivncbars to Sbcure an entrance to the lookup, and an attempt was made to batter down tbe northeastern corner of tbe building, but it proved too strong In tb look-uo was found a doublobodged noe that resembled a miniature pickaxe. There are two cells In tbe lockup. The doors of both, aa well as the door of tbe lockupare fastened with padlock, baap, and staples. The latter bad been ripped out of tbe door-lama with tba aid of tbe two-edged boa.

The cells were separated from tbe entrance by strong Iran bars. Tbe window in toe back ia barred and covered by a steel wire grating. Tbe transom over tbe door is guarded in tbe same way. Tbe window In this transom was broken by the lynchers, who. It is supposed, fired three shots at Win fctinnrk th frMtlnir in thA hnn.

of killing him. Tbe bullets must have been very small, as tba grating was not marked and tta meahea very email. On tbe floor were found 'two cinba of oak, three feet long and three Inches in diameter. They had blood on them. In Mingo Jack's" oell was a cot.

It was overturned and spotted with blood. Tbe floor of his ceil was stloky with blood. The floor and walls of the other cell were streaked wltn blood, and clots of blood were on the floor outside tbe cells. "Mingo Jack" must have fought like a tiger, and it ia more than likely that much of the blood with which tbe lookap reeks is not his. Hespparently fought his way from one cell to tbe other before be waa overcome, and bla neck was encircled with a stout balf-lnch clothesline.

Tbe knot In tbe noose was scientifically placed under tb negro's left ear, and a bit of rope waa tied around bla waist, thus securing Ills arms. The end of tbe rope waa secured to one of the bars In front of tbe transom, and tbe body waa tied to tbe baap on the door to prevent ft swinging too much. Tbe door was left unlocked by tbe lynohers. Opinion is divided regarding the likelihood of a discovery of tbe letters' Identity. Some think tba Coroner's jury will put its hands on the right man.

Others maintain tbat tbe jury will do nothing of the kind that tbe lynohers will keep their own counsel, and that no good would be aooompllahed by tbe dlsoorery of their secret. The number of tbe lynchers is estimated all the way from six to one hundred. The smaller number-Is probably very close to tbe rigbt number. DUNCAN FOUND GUILTY. THE KTJEDERSR OF TAN 8CHAICK TO ATOKS FOB HIS CRIME.

Watibtoww, n. TC, March 8. Theses tl-monjrlntbe Dunoan murder trial closed yesterday morning. Tba prisoner's wife, mother, father, and neighbors all testified, principally as to his rood character. Tbe afternoon was nearly all consumed by W.

F. Porter la gamming up for the priaoner. Ha claimed that tha body of Van Bohalok bad not been clearly Identlned; tbat it was past identification. He urged tbat a man should not be convicted on testimony as to a peculiar shirt button or a knot In tba string of a cap. He denied adequate motive ana dwelt upon the prisoner's good character around hla home.

District Attorney Emerson began summing up for tba people at i o'clock, and spoke' until 6, resuming at 9:80 this morning, and closing at a :20. Ha went torough tha testimony carefully, weaving a strong chain of circumstantial evldenoe from Duncan's aotlona on tbe morning following Van ncbalck'a disappearance, hla anxiety to ascertain Van Bobaick's where boo ta before others knew that he waa minting, his contradictory stories to the searching party, hla knowlad? of tbe thlrty-flye-dol-lar note being In tha bands of Van Bcbalck'a brother, and from hie visit to Syracuse, where be bad the tetter and telegram writteu for blm, to wbteh be bad signed tbe missing man's name. Tba letter, be aald, be regarded as tbe moat damaging testimony of all. Judge Churchill commenced hla charge at 1 o'clock, and tbe Jury retired at 3:2" p. and at (OO P.

M. tbey sent aa Inquiry to the Judge asking whether without good character a verdict or first degree would be justified, or whether with good character a verdict of second degree would be regarded aa right. After a oonuaitation with tbe priaoner oounstj and tba District Attorney, the Judge called tha jury In and answered yes" to their oueationa. At I o'clock tbe jury returned and announced tbat they had agreed upon a verdict of murder In tbe second degree. Tbe priaoner received the verdict without the slightest change of countenance.

Counsel for tbe prisoner moved for a new trial, which motion the Judge entertained and denied. Tha court then adjourned until o'clock Tuesday morning, when sentence WUl QtN. 8HXRliA.rrS LITTER. 8t. Louis, Moy, March 6.

Tbe tm (ternary brifrvlw of the principal event of th last three months, and tbe usual array of 111 urea were printed In Thb Times tbe results of tbe two final performances being easily ea 1 mated Wednesday morning, and need not.

The 1m-pi Bssion left by tba performance and tb sir material returns nave been alike satlafae-tc ry to all peraona Interested, and although it ist not be understood, aa tbe small but noisy fo of extreme Wagnerltes would hsvs pao-pl believe, tbat tbe Metropolitan ia forever and aye consecrated to German art. It la oertaln tbat nt Winter, at any rate, opera in German will bathe current attraction. Taking into consideration the- noble worka and admirable rendering witnessed this year there is no cation to find fault with tbe out-la uk. Italian opera has bad long Innings, so tc put it, in tbia city, and tbe unproductive- as of modern Italian composer and tbe ever-1c creaalng greed of artiste of the Italian school rj brought matters to such a pitch that a cl lange was not only necessary, but desirable.

In due course, however, somethings acceptable tbe partisans of both types of musto will be found, and Italian song will be rd once mora and sooner perhaps than many persona think. Meanwhile, for a twelvemonth at least, German works rated by German vocallat will be listened to a tbe Metropolitan. Yest jrday 'a representation The Queen of Sbeba" offered a fair earnest i any spectator that bad not attended earlier performances, of tbe admirable work to be ex-nected of Germany'a compoeera and aingers.

The first matinee of Delibes's Lakme" vas given at tbe Academy of Music by the rlmerlcan Opera Company yesterday afternoon. The opera, upon repeated bearings, justifies tba estimate of Its value given In these columns liter its first presentation.

Though it is by no means a masterful work, and may be truly aald to rise at no point beyond the limits of. opera comlque In tbe true significance of tbat term. It baa, nevertheless, much to commend It to all lovers of swset and simpl melody, charged with gentle sentiment rather than swaying passion. Lakme" is romantic and picturesque, and not a little of its attractlveneaa dependa upon its local color. Of tbia fact, as heretofore said, tba managers of tbe organisation at tbe Academy have taken advantage.

It would not be difficult to conceive a better Interpretation of tha work than Is given at the Academy, but ainoe it has not been per. formed here by other companiea tbe American company's repreeentation can stand on its own merits. Mme. IAUemand ia not all tbat fancy might picture Lakme, but the does not fail to be effective In tb principal numbers of tbe r61e, and in tbe descriptive and ornamental aria of the second act abe sang yesterday with feeling and excellent method. Mr.

Candldua appear to Detter aavsntage as ueraia man ne nas st any previous time this season: because his voioe is well adapted to tbe music, but hla action la far from graceful and generally without any significance beyond an apparent deaire to make some sort of a movement, no matter what. Mr. Stoddard Is not suited to tbe role of Nila-kantba. Tbe chorus aang well yesterday, and the orchestra under tbe guldanoe of tbe assistant Gustavo Hinriobs, was STAR THEATRE. Mme.

Judlo's performance in "Divor- which her brisf engagement at the- Star Theatre was last evening brought to a close, bad been seen In this city already. It Is characterized by tbe delightful naturalness distinguishing all tbia artist's work and by tha clearness, point, and elegance of ber dfefion; it ia not, however, her happiest effort, for the range of ber powers of observation and representation are limited, and aside from the perfect art with which abe aucoeeds in clothing the most suggestive and occasionally tbe most offensive words and acts In a garb of winning modesty, and a Dart from tbe purely elocutionary merits of ber style, her efforts have little to commend them to admiration. Henoe Mme. Judto'a great suo-cees in tbe pleoee written especially for her by M. Mlllaud and hla oo la borers, and henoe, also, the allgbter impreaalon of ber portrayal of Cyprtenne in Divorconi."

Its dialogue Is brimful of wit. and its farcical scene appeal to many people tbat care less for sparkling talk than for visible drollery. Mme. Judio was, of course, heartily applauded throughout tbe evening, ana if ber Introduction, tn the third act of the plav, of "Los Eorevlssea" a typical concert ball song would oot bav been attempted or tolerated In Paria. its rendering waa undoubtedly justified In New-York by tbe enthusiastic approval of the audience.

Yiewlng the representation from tbe author's standpoint, the largest share of the honors were borne off by MM. Mezieres and Cooper, who embodied respectively dea Prunellea and Aobemar. STEDTWAY HALL.

"Nanoy and Company," at Daly's, Is a great hit. Seats have been sold tbree weeks ahead, and Mr. Daly baa been compelled to make arrantrementa to reserve places four weeks in sdvaiice.

A few apologized for it, on tbe ground that It was quite just if one understood the circumstances; but as, to all aopearances, only a limited number knew anything about the circumstances, the sympathies of the au- disnce drifted toward the Brooklyn men wn hattheatart.

and for once the popular young men of the Seventh had to rub along without tbe applause and admiration of tbe ladles ta tbe gallery. Tbe feelings of the Brooklyn men may be summed up in a word. Tbey were mad. As tba Thirteenth's crew were stripping for the contest capt. Lord read over the notice aloud in tbe dressing room.

Tbe Seventh boys tried a cheerful S-s--boom-ah," but it finished vary feebly.

Tbe next pull was evidently to be the struggle of tbe evening, and both orews hurried to tbelr dressing rooms to prepare for it.

Tbe drop was about even. "One' minute." oalled tbe timekeeper, and the Seventh boys bad pulled two and a halflnoaes away from their powerful antagonists. Tbe building rang with yella of delight.

I never saw our men pull as tbey did to-night." Tbe Seventh boy postponed tbalr superfluous lung power until tbey had occaaioa to ua It, and hunted around to find out who waa responsible for tbe affront on tba programme. "It doublea tbe atlng of tbe defeat." aald one man. Capt. Schuyler, wbo waa seen for a moment in the dressing room, defended toe- paragraph. "The Brooklyn men bave used us very shabbily," he said.

We played with the same team that ws bad at tbe match last year, but th Thirteenth added four strong fellows Wateon, Northrldge, Slmmona, and Kane without giving ua toe allgbteat notification.

March East-bound freight business has Improved anmswhat during tbe week, tbe aggregate of tbe shipments being t21 tons, against 034 tons last week.

Tbe statement for this week Includes only two days' business of tbe Chicago and. Atlantic Koad, and tbe total business for tbe week Is nearly 60.000 tons. The Chicago and Atlantic has furnished no statistics to Joint Aa-eot Moore slnoa the beginning of thu week, and alders itself no longer a member of tbe east-' bound pooh The inference is tbat tbe road purposes acting Independently of the pool, and will make such rates as it sees fit. There is, there, fore, every reason why tbe Erie and tbe trunk Una managers should using such strenuous Sorts to aaoura tb appointment of a Bolvr ot th Chicago and Atlantl wbo will friendly to tb Ert Interest. Aithougb tb Chicago and Atlantic has no direct eastern ouUet It 1 la a poeltion to demoralise eaat-bound rata If It fit, and if Judge Qreehan next week decline to appoint a Keoelver or names one Who Is not friendly to tbe Erie interest tbe road Is tn for a fight.

Tb Chicago aad Atlantl has thus far found a good outlet to Baltimore over tha Baltimore and Ohio, but even should this road decline to Inter-chang bnalnaaa with Mr. Jawwtt's llo the latter an reach ta seaboard at Newport Kewa over tb Chesapeake and Ohio. Indeed. It is understood here that arrangements bave already been made between tbe Cbeaapeake and Ohio and tbe Chicago and Atlantic by whloh tbe latter trransters its bust ns at Marion, Ohio, Its eastern terminus, to the Hooking Valley Road, watcb.la turn, gives it to the. Ohio Central at Point Pleasant, tbat road eoanwcting with the Chesapeake and Ohio at Charleston, West Va.

By thia route the Cblcagoand Atlantic will have as short a line to tidewater as the Lake tfbore and Mw-York Central to New-Tork. Kon ot the Unas forming part of th new route are members Of the east-bound pool, and tbey are therefor untrammalad. Beside this, another difficulty has ariaaa which greVstly embarrass us the east-bound pooL By means of bis (South, western system of roads and tbe Wabash. Jar Gould ia now diverting the bulk of the east, bound grain shipments from Nebraska and Kansas away from tb pool line by taking It from Hannibal and St. Louis to Toledo, which Is not an Eastern pool point.

Tbe pool lines are therefore powerless to prevent Gould's competition. Add to this the demoralisation whloh tba water route will effect as soon aa navigation opene, and tne proepeot la tbat tb new pool will be hardly on tbalr feet before tbey will be laid fiat on tbelr backs.
