8o.MK.noDY has been trying to write letters for Hon. Fbank Landers. They ore not satisfactory to Mr. Lakpers. Sbcretart Shermas was the only member at the Cabinet meeting yesterday.

This is a lonely year for Sherman. Dr. Scott is out of tho Congressional race. The Republicans will probably select a less meritorious person for a candidate. The expectations of Trincess Louise regarding a Court in Canada have not been realized, and she wants to go back to her mother.

General Gibson was to open the -campaign at Parkersburg, West Virginia, yesterday. Gibson should tell the West Virginians how nice a man Governor Foster is. Gibson owes his renewal of public life to Foster. It is announced that President IIatks will "draw it mild" when he goes to tho Pacific Coast. lie will not mnke a specialty of siieeohes.

Mr. IIavks could do tho Republican party more good by keeping away from the Golden Shore till after tb3 election. Saraii Bernhardt is coming over to sef the theatrical fashion. During her stay in "New York her gullcry of paintings and sculpture will be exhibited in the lobby of Booth's Theater. This will probably be the beginning of a new era of wax-works in the United States.

"Oh, yes," shout the Republican papers, "the Democrats want a change; they want to get the offices." Well, the Republicans do not want a change; they want to keep the offices. Doesn't it occur somebody that it isn't the most sensible thing to discuss the candidates from an "oflice" stand- point Hox. Sajii'kl F. Hunt made an effective speech at k'iqua last night, opening the Democratic campaign at that place. The meeting was crowded and splendid.

The Wigwam was not large enough for the audience, and the enthusiasm was great. Piqua is the home of the Chairman of the Democratic Campaign Committee of Ohio, 1 i anu iv i r. i uus wxiimuu to iwi encouraged by the size and temper of the meeting last night. Charley Grosvenor is to speak to the people of Lynchburg, Virginia, on the 14th of August. There is a suspicion that the Republican leaders intend to keep Grosvenor out of Ohio till election day.

But they can not do it. Grosvenoh will tie breaking through the serried ranks of the Republicans to the front, Just when the hard fight is to come on. Then Colonel Moore and General Bkatty, and their followers, will throw their muskets down In rdisgust. A RKrriiiJCAN conference is to be held In the City of New York on the 2d of August. Generals Garfield and Arthcb, the members of the National Committee, the Chairmen of the different State Coui-t mi tecs, the Congressional Committee, and about one hundred other promineut Republicans are expected to bo present.

We trust that the Committee on Invitations will not omit President Hates, Senator Conk li no. Secretary Sherman ants others whose attitude toward the Republican party is especially interesting just now. There is nothing like harmony or, if the XUCTT111I 0 fc I WO MM Mr. George Bullock, a wealthy manufacturer and well-known philanthropist of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, and a leading Republican, is an active supporter of -Oeneral Hancock for President. When this announcement was first made there was a disposition among Republicans to pooh-pooh Mr.

to set him down as not much of a Republican, and not much of a man gen erally. The Philadelphia Timet has ascer-' talned that Bullock has been onaof the solid men of the Republican party la Pennsylvania, contributing large amounts of money to the Republican campaign funds, and wielding a large personal; influenoe. Among other Re publicans of Montgomery County who are for Hakcock are General William J. Boltojt, a battle-scarred veteran, who, after doing good service for the Union flag, has since de--voted much of his time to the interests of the National Guard; Dr. L.

Rkad, Surgeon Oeneral of Governor Hott's staff, who served as Surgeon In the Crimean War, and also throughout the late civil contest; B. E. Chaik, prominent attorney, who was one of HAH- cock's playmates, and other oltlsens of high lauding in the community. Besides these are many men of less prominence, who de cline to "come out" for fear of offending em ployers or for other reasons, but who will vote for Hakcock while supporting the Repub lican State and local tickets. Anent the effort to show that General Hakcock Is a military wanderer, without a recognized home.

Mr. Bcuoci says: "Some one has pooh-poohed the claim that Norrlstown is the home of Hancock, and said that he Is remembered by hardly auy body up there, havluir left there when a boy. Of exrurse he left there and went to West Point and bas been away, busy serving his country ever since. Not tafs home. His moilier died there year ago.

After such an art fhave no desire to sustain toe Repub lican party in say way. i worn a no vote ior party- that would earry through such a fraud. I think Mr.

THE MAY OB'S OFFICE. Another Glanoo Into His Honor" Sanctum. An Official Inrestlfcratton to Made To-Morrow. The feeling Is abroad that the affairs In the Mayor's office need an overhauling. It is pretty evident that there is "meat" there, and an Investigation, if honestly and thoroughly conducted, will bring it to the surface.

The Mayor has asked for this Investigation, and to-morrow afternoon the inquisition will begin. The oubllo are beginning to be Interested. The stub-book business detailed in the Enquirer has created an Impression, and there a very general desire on the part of the public and the office-holders to have this mystery solved. It is evident that there has been dirty work done in His Honor's sanctum, and he owes to himself to have the light thrown upon the dark place. It Is also patent that there is a revulsion of feeling In regard to the principals In the affair, and there are many who are ready to "gamble" that Leuchtenburg has told the truth.

There are a half-dozen men lu the City Building and elsewhere who are willing to swear that stub No. 486 bore no appearance of being tampered with when shown to them by Lout ten burg. Among these are Harry Blackburn, City Paymaster, and Sam ltamp, the County Clerk. Mr. Kanip is one of the bondsmen of Mr.

Moorman. Kow that the investigation is ordered, do not let the inquisitors forget to tell how those books are kept, in which it appears that several duplicate licenses for vehicles are issued. Let them also delve into the affair connected with a license issued to the Diamond Uunctng Association. On a stub lu the license-book, numbered 212, can be found an entry of fci for a license to give a dancing party. On the license corresponding in number to the stub, and of the same date, appears the name of the License Clerk, showing that he had received 50 for that identical license.

Mr. Leiicliten-burg tins a memorandum receipt in bis pocket which reads: "Cincinnati, January 28, 1880. "Received of the D. D. A.

two dollars and a halJf- 5(i). for license for giving a reception at Kureka Hall Tuesday, January 18, 1880. To be returned in full if wrongfully Riven. "Thomas fox." Thomas Fox is an officer of the police force and was given the money by the President of the Association to procure the license. He in turn turned it over to lieutenant Montgomery, of the Hammond-street Station, who got tho license, as desired.

Leuchtenburc then, while in (he pursuit of pointers on his old enemy Moorman, got possession of the license after the receipt had been slveu. and carried It. together with other evi dences of alleged crookedness, around in his nocket. to show at convenient seasons to those of his friends who might be interested in knowing now ne was roiiowing np Moorman's transactions. This particular niece of documentary evidence has passed from his possession.

Mayor Jacob has it. It was given him under protest tne oilier a ay, wnen ne oruerea jeucntenDurg to disgorge his data. The Albers license was the one the Mayor was most soucuous aoouu but aa I jiiclilenbum nretended that he left it at home the Mayor had to be satisfied with the other, mis, uououdv, will oe anown tne inquisitors by the Mayor. Then while the investigation Is on let evi dence be takeu as to whether there was any extra money made by any of the clerks for transferrin); licenses. For instance, Hinitlt, has taken out a license to peuaie uotions lor six months.

He finds he does not need it so long, but can dispose of it to Brown for the unexpired time. The document is taken to the Mayor's office, and when fixed up is given to Brown. The necessary writing done on It might be charged for. See if this ever nas Deen none, ana wnemer it can legally be charged for. Then sninmon Treasurer Knorr.

and ask him If the postaice- stamp account or any other account has been overdrawn, and make inquiry as to whether Mayor jacoD ever compelled one oi nis cieras to take a voucher back to him (Knorr) by which that clerk meant to make a draw of extra stamps. These things are being talked about, ana noimng out me utmost putniony will cease the wagging of tongues. By the way, Leuchtenburg and Moorman, who have bot been deposed, are not treated with equal consideration by His Honor. While tne lorxner is not uiuweu iu slj iwui me I nMlAA 4.a l.tl., ttt Ml.

This is not fair play. Keep them both out, or let them both in. A BVKuLAK ROrXCED. I.leiitraaant Le vine's FoadnnsferwTfn. tfer Lyons.

William Lyon, commonly known as Ten der Lyons, a notorious thief who has served several terms in the Work-house, was a prisoner last night at Hammond-street Station on a charge of burglary. The number of jobs done in the Hammond-street District lately by night prowlers Induced Lieutenant bevlne last evening to resolve on active oper ation among the crooks down there. In think ing over the list there was none in his mind more likely to be one of the guilty parties than Lyon. He therefore sent Officers MoFar-land and Hlnkle to Lyou'a house in Crlppen alley about six o'clock with orders to fetch him in. They returned shortly after with Lyon in tow and locked him up.

The turnkey, while nasal ir throtieh the cell-room not long af Lyon had nis pants off and was chewing away at the buttons. This seemed. to say the least, a strange proceeding, ana tne turnkey eathered up some of the detached buttons, which be carried out to Lieutenant Devlne. in latter examinea mem, ana noticed that each one of them bore the stamp of Rlckhofr. the Vine-street tailor, whose establishment, it will ie rememnere was burslarlzea a week ago.

air. iticatnt was sent for, and identified the pants as a pair taken from his store on the night of the Hurvlarv. The officers were then sent to Lyon's place to search the house for more of the stolen goods. They did not find any, bnt In the cellar they found an aocount-book belonging to W. B.

Bellab, of 171 Sycamore itnuL whose nlace waa burglarised Rnndav nltrht and robbed of $25 In money and a suit of clothes. James Boh an, alias Ohosty, another famous crook, was run in on suspicion of being one of the gang. The ease au.ln.t I.toii is at ran n- enouirh to send him no the road for a good term. Lleutenent Devtne's work In this instanoe lscharaoterlstie nf the man and officer. If the whole force were made up of such as be, thieves and burglars would give Cincinnati a wide berth.

The whole police force in this district seems active and capable, and a detective very seldom gets a ohance to do any outside work. Huch officer as McFarlin, Braxel, Knox, Kimble and others know tneir aisirici inor oughly and take good care of It. TFKN OJf THE UHT. A CTaance for the City Council te Dlstlsf Cataki ItaIC The Common Council will now have a chance to finish ths Investigation into the Health Board's affairs, so well begun by the Board Itself. The Republican members of the Board voted against this course yesterday, but it is not too much to hope that Council will try aud get at the bottom of things.

There's rich' ness In it, aud a pensive publie would like to read all about It. Tom Leonard has shown by his refusal to go back on A friend that there is music to come, and now let our city fathers turn the crank, and the tax-payers will cheerfully listen to the sweet strains. Will Bramble allow himself to be the butt of this Investigation? It has not gone far enough to suit him, and no doubt he will endeavor to have the pool stirred up farther. He will hardly permit himself to be made a scapegoat of by bis confreres. Here's a chance to find out all about It.

Let an appropriation be made to pay witness fees, and then Mr. Leonard can not have an excuse to keep still. Begin the Uting right, and nnrsne it ImDartially. acd the result will Justify the time and money spent. Belter and Mats (the only Democratic members) have stood up to tne racK maniuuy.

THE CINCINKA.TI DAILY ENQUIBEB, "WEDNESDAY MORNING. JULY 23, 1830. HORRIBLE RAPE.

Safe Beven cities insisted that they were each the birthplace of the blind bard Homer, and two States lay claim to ths home of HarrisonIndiana and Ohio which was yesterday ths sosne of ths discovery of ths most brutal outrage ever perpetrated in the town that old Oeneral Harrison, long before he was elevated to the Presidency, years ago, surveyed and laid i TBccncovur. Dr. H. H.

WUlette. Ex-Mayor of ths and a leading physician, as welt as Chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee of Hamilton County, was seated in his office at nine o'clock yesterday morning, when Henry KUers, a prominent German clti- sen and furniture manufacturer of the town. entered, and, in an excited manner, exclaimed. "Ob, doctor, lam ruined; I never was In so much trouble In ail my life I My little daughter has been outraged. Come quick to the house." The doctor, who was the family physician, left very thing, and repairing to the residence of the grlef-strlcken father found Mrs.

Eilers completely prostrated, and their beautiful little daughter a mere child, only seven years old lat May, confined to her bed. An examination was made, and the borrible fact was disclosed that the child had been most beastly and brutally ravished, as well as diseased. Evidence was apparent of subsid iary inflammation, and amid sobs and tears the story was finally dragged, piecemeal by piecemeal, shred by shred, from the broken-down mother and frightened child. TUB OUTRAGE. On the 12th of July, fifteen days ago, Mrs.

Eilers came to Cincinnati on a business trip, leaving their two children, Henry, a lad of eight years, and Rose, their only daughter, of seven, In charge of a nurse. Close by to the factory of Mr. Eilers is the establishment of Joseph Hughes and brother, who, under the Arm name of Hughes A sell plows, drills, mowing-machines, to the farmers of the Harrison end of the White Water Valley. They had a large shop stored with various farming utensils, and little. Rose was accustomed to play in the factory.

That day, while playing with Nellie Curren, the little four-year-old daughter of Mr. Dennis Curren, a grocery merchant, and Delia Barnecloe, a four-year-old daughter of the well-known engineer of the Indianapolis, Cincinnati and White Water Railroad, she and her playmates were accosted by Joseph Hughes, who said: "Olrls, I am going to sleep. Please wake me up at three o'clock." Is room was over his place of business, and the children, sure of a few pennies, promised to wake him. They repaired to his room at the appointed time, and he sent out the two younger children and told Rose to lock the door. In her childish innocence she complied, and the brute then enticed her into his bed, and despite her screams and remonstrances, her protestations and chfldish, pitiful he most brutally outraged, and then, with a nendlsh devilment, said, "Tell if you dare, and I'll cut your heart out." Rosle's parents eame home the next day, and Mrs.

Filers found ber daughter sick and complaining. Not dreaming of the true nature of the trouble, she admlnstcred some domestic- remedies known to every homo medical circle to allay Inflammation. Meanwhile sutlering. little ttose grew no oeuer, yet iearea 10 leu the true cause, as the fiendish face of Hughes was ever before her childish fancy, and she reallv believed he'd carry his threat into exe cution. Yesterday morning secrecy burst the bounds of rear and sne oallea nerntue brother aside and told him the horrible story.

Manlike the little fellow ran right to his mother and told the tale. THK ARREST. Dr. Willette Is neither slow to think nor de liberate about acting. Hecrecy and dispatch were both needed, and the Ex-Mayor was the rieht man In the right place.

Repairing to the office of A. O. Jenkins, affidavits were speedily drawn in the- hands of an officer wnn a warrant, wno, wuu me aoetor, repaired to Hughes' shop and arrested him. He was not taken aback, showed no signs of fear or and said: me write tnree letters, ana 1 11 oe 1 in you. 11 was uuw nwn.

uu mv prisoner was taken before Esquire Geo rue Bowlbv. who. in his little twelve by eighteen office, held the preliminary examination. Mr. and Mrs.

Eilers gave tneir testimony, anu little Rose was sworn and said in her childish voice: "Mr. Hughes told me to come and wake him the day papa ana mamma went to Cincinnati. Curren and Delia Barnecloe wera with me. We went lu and he told me to stay. After that he called me to the bed, ana had me to get in." Durihg the preliminary examination, Hushes sat like patience on a monument smiling at grief, as stoical aa a stone fence, and as unconcerned as a telegraph-pole.

He read a paper wnue tne entire proceedings were going on. He neither employed counsel nor asked any "Yes," he said, "the girl was in my room that day; but I am innocent of any crime." Esquire Bowl by was not long In making up his mind, and a bond of was required, which Hughes being unable to furnish, a ordered to Lawrenceburg Jail. EXCITEMENT. Good news travels fast, bad news fairly files. especially in small towns.

The story got out and an angry mob soon gathered about the Justice's office, and loud and fierce were the threats of lynching. Dr. Willette, with Constable B. V. Howard, stepped out.

and the Doctor said to the crowd In plain words: "Gentlemen, I have caused the arrest of this man, and I mean to stand by him and see that ne is commuted, 10 jail. 1 want no foolishness about this matter. We are ail law-abiding citizens, and we must respect the law. Violence may result In the injury of some innocent party, for 1 shall de- iena mis man 1111 ne is iookcq in tne wai is 01 the Penitentiary." A carriage was at once ordered, and Joseph Hughes was intrusted to Constable B. Howard, who took along a flve-shooter, 32-caliber, and, with FranK Eck-elberaer as driver, started at three o'clock for Lawrenceburg.

Howard la as full of nluok as an nz is of meat. was during the war the Sheriff of Lawrenoe- Durg, and tne man to woom, in tne Mccooie aud Coburn fight, at Seymour, the jail- piru ana uurgiar, aiiuuiy ciiiotx, paiu particular attention with a bin oaken stick to satisfy an old grudge. On the road to Lawrenoeburg 11 ug nes mamiesiea a lspoemou 10 maae himself scarce as they passed several inviting corn-fields and patches of wood, but Howard let him know "that he was fixed, and that he was a good shot, and that he'd shoot by the great Jehosaphat." Hughes thought he meant business, and only asked for a alass of water now and then. Oommg back from Lawrenoe burg, tne writer met nownra at nan-past nine, and he said "I landed Hughes in lall. and here's the receipt." LUCKY It was for Hughes, but very nnlueky for justice, that forty factory hands did not bear 01 the outrage before Hughes was safely out of town.

Had the matter not been managed discreetly by Dr. Willette. Hughes' body would have dangled from soots telegraph-pole or convenient birch strlppllng. Vengeance, that "treaas witn a 1001 01 velvet out sir mas with a hand of steel." was lond-mouthed and blatant as soon as the affair waa noised about, but It was too late. The brute was out of their reaoh en route for Dearborn County Jail.

the riKND. The personal appearance of Joseph Hughes Is any thing but prepossessing. Low of fore-bead, sensual of lip, huge of nose, witn low, sunken, treacherous-looking eyes, hair of that nondescript straw color that can not make up Its mind to be red the color of seven-cent brown sugar, with sandy whiskers to match.no jury would hesitate long to give such a brute the punishment his lechery merited. He waa a great drunkard; in fact some of the citizens said he was never sober. His associates were the lowest, and his penchant for young girls has long been noticed.

He frequently enticed them into his shop and gave them presents and candy, but none suspected him capable of theoffeuse now charged against him. He is unmarried, THK VICT1K. Only sevs years old. and a remarkably pretty blonde, well formed, though rather delicate of build, with bright blue eyes, and lovely soft, line, flaxen hair that fell away over her shoulders, little Rose is every way a pretty, modest child. She has attended school only a year, and Is beginning to read a litue in the first reader.

She hobbled Into the parlor of Mr. Eilera. her father, last evening, seeming to feel keenly her aad plight that for many a lonar vear will rest aa a Dall over ber future. Her father has been five years a resident of Harrison, ana formerly uvea ior twenty -one years in Cincinnati. THK TOWN OF HARRISON, Bight through the center of Htate street runs the dividing line that separates Indiana from Ohio.

Union Is the only other town In the r-istim similarly atiuaieu. xne population on the Ohio or east side Is about lAio: on the In diana or west side about 1.400. It is the best town In the world to commit a crime in. for tne criminal nas only to sten across the street. and then recnlMtton would be essential which would take time to procure.

The wonder is that Hughes did not escape, as a run of fifteen feet would have landed him in another State. It appears, hewever, that shortly after the offense was eommitted Hughes borrowed Rev. P. II. Goeladae's horse and rode out of town, bat sneaked back iu a few days, supposing that little Rose would obey his command and hold her tongue.

The epidemleof rapistry is getting to be altogether too virulent, and some powerful remedy, more effective than Iron bars or alone walla, anust needs be applied to the artists of this school.

War. Cassell Attesapta tta Two Little Olrls. At aq early boar Sunday evening, William Campbell, a hostler for Jacob Hals.

Branch street, enticed three little girls Into bis stable, and attempted to rartab two of them, Anna Gerhard aged seven years, a daughter of Fran go Gerhard residing on Dunlap street, and Maggie Boettlnger, the nine-year old child of a poor widow, who lives at 66 Dunlap street. The vllllan, Campbell, asked ths three chil dren into ths stable, and, placing the six-year- old sister of Maggie Boeltinger on a bono, began to take liberties with ber person. He put his hands under the child's clothes in a most indecent manner, asking her If she dldnt like that. The modest little thing, who is hardly mors than an infant, told him no, when he left ber and went with the two older (iris upstairs to the hay-mow. He threw Maggie Boettlger down on the hay and felt ber person In the same manner as ber sister, putting a similar question to ber.

Bhe also replied no, and he sent her down stairs, telling her to go with Lizzie to a siaugnter-nouse near ny ana Annie Gerhard would come to them soon. He would undoubtedly have accomplished his fiendish designs on the latter but for the timely intervention of a butcher named Assel, who, suspecting something wrong and hearing screams from the Gerhardt girl, rushed into the stable and up to the hay -loft. He found Campbell with his person exposed and the little girl lying on the bay, preparatory to beginning his hellish work. The appearance of Assel Interrupted the brute, but he 'at the time managed to Vowel 1, and was identified by Assel as the man wno nau attempted uie rape on tne uer-hardt child. Campbell, the wretch who deliberately coaxed three small, innocent children into the stable where he was hostler, and after using two of them in the most indecent and outrageous manner first sending two of them away and endeavored to rape the the tfaisd, is a married man, thirty-three or thirty-four years of age and resides at No.

83 burner street. He Is a bad cltisen and haa no redeeming trait of character, so far as can be ascertained. He is a lecherous scoundrel, wno has on several previous occasions tried to ravish little girls, but, through some legal Informality, has managed to elude justice. A year ago last March he attempted to violate the person of a little daughter of Mr. Krupp-fleld, on Charlotte street.

It is to be hoped that, for the sake of society, Mr. Campbell will be oompelled to make a long visit to the rogwes' academy at Columbus. The two Boettlger children reside with their poor widowed mother at tiS Dunlap street, who barely gains a subsistence for her Ave dependent little ones at the wash-tub. The wouid-be ravlwher. Campbell, knows Mrs.

Boettlger and her destitute, unprotected condition, as she at one time occupied a house near tne stable where he worked. The advantage ho took of her helpless, guileless children makes his crime all the more heinous. FITZGERALD'S FIG II T. Queer Actions of Police Officer While Sot on Dnly. Michael Fitzgerald, who figured indirectly as a party In the fight at Columbia several Sundays ago in which Officer Jack Mullen was killed, was the object of another attack yesterday.

During the afternoon, Fitzgerald says, a policeman from the Oliver-street Sta tion came down to the omnibus stables, on Front street, where he was employed and Inquired for him. The officer was In a buggy, 'and seemed to be very drunk.Bcfore Fitzgerald could come out the man drew an ugly pistol and began to threaten he would kill Fitzgerald on sight. Quite a crowd gathered and Mr. Bell, Superintendent of the Transfer Company, ordered the poUceman away. He drove off, bnt returned again presently and renewed his threats of death and destruction to Fitzgerald, flourishing his pistol in a dangerous style.

Onee more the crowd Interferes! and the officer again drove off and atayed away. Fitzgerald complained of the affair at Hammond-street Station, where he stated that the officer's name was Hornsperger, of the Oliver-street District, and that the mar. holds a grudge against mm or thirteen years standing. Inquiry nt vei -street Station disclosed the fact that no officer by the name of Hornsperger reports there. But Jacob Hansoerger, wno waa recently iransierrea 10 that District from the Bremen t-street District.

came to the station at roll-call last evening, and asked to be excused from dut for the night. He said he had been down town during the day and bad been thrown out of his buggy. Injuring his head severely. The Lieutenant at Oliver-street Station promises to look into the affair more closely. Fitzgerald, who keeps a grocery at 22-Broadway, and owns several backs, says there is a gang in the city, nf which this officer Is.

HVRLED TO ETEKJIITT. gnd Termination to the Jonraey ef Bis Jeaaie hteele. As sad a death by violence as was ever re corded was that of Miss Jessie Steele of Parla. Illinois. She was almost instantly- kitted in Walnut Hills last evening.

The young lady had just arrived from her Western home on a visit to her sister, Mrs. Simonson, who lives at the Sixteen-mile Station, on the Montgomery road.

A special from Rockvllle states that the negro ravlsher of Mrs.

Tsohiftely, John Dlggs, alias Dorsey, alias Williams, was taken forcibly from tbe Jail at that place this morning at a few minutes before four o'clock and banged to a tree by a band of unmasked men. Dlggs was brought to Rockvllle about eleven o'clock last night by Z. J. Davis, a resident of Montgomery, who captured Diggs near Mechanics-vllle, in Montgomery County. After being lodged in Jail the news of bis arrest spread rapidly, and a courier was dispatched post-haste to Barnes town to Inform Mr.

TschifTely and his neighbors. Meanwhile, the people of Rockvllle began to gather, and on every corner could be seen knots of men conversing in low but earnest tones. Imprecations were showered on the head of tbe negro, and it soon became manifest that be would never be tried before the Courts of the State, but that a summary hanging would be the result of these spontaneous gatherings. Meanwhile.Sheiiff Kelchner, who antletpated trouble, had not been idle. He went among the citizens and summoned about twenty-five as a posse comitatus to guard the lalL The prisoner was placed in a strong cell in tbe lower tier of the Jail with, shackles on his legs, but his hands unsecured.

citizens who had been summoned were stationed on the stone steps leading to the main entrance to the jail, while directly in front of the door where Sheriff Kelchner and his deputies, Kingsburry and Miller. Some of the citizens summoned were armed with shot-guns and revolvers, and it waa certain that their sympathies were not with tbe authorities, and that the weapons they carried would be in oase of trouble used In behalf of the other side. This state of uncertainty continued until about two o'clock this morning, at which time Mr. James TschifTely. and his father, accompanied by about ten Farncstown farmers, arrived in the town.

They were met by a delegation of the citizens of Rockvllle and vicinity, and a consultation was held. The unanimous verdict was that Dlggs should suffer death, and that before sunrise. There was not the slightest attempt at concealment, it not being deemed necessary, as the verdict of tbe entire community, man, woman aud child, was "death to the ravfbher." In response to sn inquiry for a rope, a farmer produced from tbe recesses of his pockets a new coll of rope, which showed that he was prepared. The next move waa to select a leader for the lynchers, whereupon a sturdy. vix-foot, wealthy farmer responded, saying: "Yon need look no further follow me, I will lead you." At 3:10 o'clock, the Arrangements for tbe lynching having been completed.

tblrty-two stalwart and determined men started for tbe jail, which la sltnated In the outskirts of the town, and strongly built 01 Maryland Uranite. With almost noiseless steps they turned the corner of the County Court-house, and defiled into the narrow pathway which leads to the Jail. Not a word was spoken by a man in tbe party until they reached the large picket-gate which formed a portion of the outer incloaure of the jail. Then, In a subdued tone of voice. the leader called a halt, and stated to the men that they might have to encounter difficulties, and would perhaps meet with resistance from the Sheriff and his deputies, who were known as determined men, and in addition to this, there were at ths jail two ferocious bloodhounds.

This information did not in the least dis may the band of lynchers. They had started out to wreak vengeance, and were not to be deterred from their purpose. The gate was opened and. tbe men entered the jail-yard. As they nested the steps they were halted by the Sheriff, who asked them what they wanted.

"Mr. TschifTely is here, and wants to identify the prisoner," spoke the leader. "Mr. TschifTely can go In If he wants to, but not until all the rest go outside of the jail ln-closure," answered the Sheriff; This was not what they bad come for, and the leader spoke, saying that they all wanted to enter the jail, and that they demanded the keys. Sheriff Kelchner told them in a determined voice that they could not enter until they had overcome him and bis men.

"Then we will do that," said the leader, and turning to the men and saying, "Come on, boys; down with him," he seised Deputy Sheriff ulngsburry, and In a twinkling had possessed himself of the keys of the jail. Tbe Sheriff and his deputies made a furious resistance, but the posse comitatus, as was expected, mingled with the crowd, and some became identified with the lynchers. A desperate straggle ensued, the Sheriff and his Deputies fighting like tigers, but in vain, as the odds were against them. Sheriff Kelchner, who is of almost herculean strength. stood at the door, the entrance to which wss barred with bis body, bnt the mob pounced upon him and threw him bodily from tbe top to tbe bottom of the steps, maiming him somewhat.

The corridor of the jail in darkness, and Deputy Kingsbury, who knew the Innermost recesses of the jail, took advantage of this, and. pushing through the crowd, planted his body directly in front of the Iargw Iron grated door which leada to the Inner corridor, on which are located ths cells. Ths lynchers could not, in ths darknessf distinguish friend from foe, and fearful of hurting some of their friends, decided on a halt until a light could be obtained. A small kerosene lamp waa soon brought, and tbs light revealed the person of Deputy-Sheriff Kingsbury. "Gentlemen," he shouted, I protest against this tblng yon can not pass this gats unless you do so over my body." A rush was made for the brave officer, and a struggle, short, but fierce, ensued, during which time the lamp went out.

But the mob by this time had secured tbe Deputy, whom they hustled toward ths door, fighting fiercely tbe while. He was finally forced as far as the main entrance of the JaiL He stubbornly clung to the door, bnt only for a short time, as a stalwart farmer struck him a severe blow on the arm, causing htm to loosen his vice-like grip, and in another instant he was burled to the bottom of ths stairs, where he and tbe Sheriff were placed under a guard to prevent further resistance on their part. To open the large Iron door was but tbe work of a moment. Then the leader, accompanied by Mr. James TschifTely, went directly to ths cell of the outrager.

Ths cell-door was opened, and, a light being procured. Mr. TschifTely entered the cell. Dlggs, anticipating his. fate, was cowering closely in one corner of the cell.

"Get un," said the leader, and the affrighted wretch arose to his feet. Tbe light was held close to his face, and Mr. TschifTely, raising the brute's slouch bat. peered closely Into his faoe. But one look sufficed, and, turning, he said: "That is the scoundrel," when Dlggs' bat was restored, and he was taken by ths arm and led from ths jail.

When he reached ths yard the mob closed In on him on all aides, and thus ne wss marched through the line to a winding road, which led to tbe Darn est own road. His captors seemed In a harry, and. shackled as he was, ths victim was made to hasten his steps; but never a word he spoke save when he was hurried, when be would remonstrate, saying: "Deed and deed, boss, I cant walk, any furdcr wld dese tings round my ankles. Jest take dem. -off and I'll walk fast." Tbs reauest waa not Reaching the Barnes town road he waa hurried along until they reached West's farm, which is located about two hundred yards from the outskirts or Rockvllle, and about is spannea oy a wooaen onoge.

At tnls point halt was celled, and the men looked around or a suitable tree on which to hang tbe culprit. While the search waa going on an attempt was mads to elicit a thorough confession from the fellow. "John." said ths leader, "you now have only minutes to live, and you had belter tail all yo know about tbs 'affair. Tbe -villain cost a look of defiance at his captors and said "You most all be fools: all you can do is to hang ma, and if you do I tell you now that my death will be revenged. You are all cowards to take man out and bang him wltbowt giving him a chance to get a lawyer." By this time a large black-heart ofaerry tree, which suited the purpose admirably had been found, and Dlggs was notified that his hour had coma.

A short rope was produced and three of the lynchers approached him to fiinion bis anna which, up to this time, had hough tlesaly been left free, when suddenly the ruffian turned upon his eaptora. With a tremendous blow he knocked one of them down, and quickly seized another by tbe throat, choking bim until be was nearly black In the faoe, and compelling him to shoot for assistance. When another of the men attempted to loosen the fellow's Jtrasp be seized bim with his teeth by tbe hand and bit bim severely. By this time the crowd closed around him. and, fighting with the ferocity of a tiger, he was lurmu iu uie grouna, ana oy tne sneer force of numbers overpowered.

Then his arms were aecnrelv ti pinioned behind. and he waa raised to lit. foet. But the fellow waa game, and, darting a look of ferocity on those around him, he almost hissed through his teeth, "Oh, you cowards! Just take these shackles off me, and IU Show you what I can dot" While this scene waa being enacted the rope had been passed oyer a limb of the cherry-tree, with tbe noose dangling. A horse was then led under the noose, and Dlggs was lifted on his back.

This plan did not work, and the horse was led away. Then Dlggs was made to stand under the limb, and the noose waa placed around his neck and tightened. Tbe leader was about to give the order to swing him up, when one of the lynchers asked and obtained permission to offer up a short prsyer for the unhappy wretch, whose soul was so soon to be ushered Into eternity. The prayer being ended the leader shouted "Sow pull away, men!" and in an Instant the body was dangling in space. Strange to say, he made not tbe slightest movement from the time he was hauled up until life was pronounced extinct, which was in twenty-two minutes after, death having ensued from strangulation.

Some of those present wished to discharge their pistols into the culprit's body, but this was not countenanced. Just as ths mob were about to pull on the rope. Deputy Sheriff Kingsberry came rushing across the road and shouted. "Gentlemen, I protest In the name of the law!" "Pat hlra back!" was the cry from the crowd, and the Deputy was incontinently hustled to a respectful distance. Every precaution to prevent disclosure was taken, and every one present was made to hold up their hands and repeat after their leader th following oath: "I do solemnly swear in tbe presence of Almighty Uod, that I will never reveal the names of those present or disclose what was done here this day." After all had satisfied themselves that the wretch waa dead they quietly dispersed and went back to town by different roads.

Your correspondent saw the body about one hour after the hanging, and aa it swung to and fro it pretsn ted a horrible and sickening appearance. His eyes were wide open and while the large mouth stood agape, with the tongue swollen and protruding between his teetli. The Deputy Sheriffs notified the Coroner of the county, and a jury of inquest was summoned. The Coroner's jury met about fifteen minutes before nine o'clock at the place where the body was hanging, and iu the presence of hundred or three hundred persons the body was cut down. After an examination tbe jury came to the unanimous verdict that John Diggs came to his death by strangulation at the hands of parties unknown.

Sheriff Ketchner stated this morning that Diggs made a full confession of the crime to him previous to the jail being forced. Dlges stated that he left the houne of Mr. Tschilfely barefooted, carrying his sboes In He put these on when about ten miles from Darnestown. He also related to the Sheriff all of his movements from the time of committing the crime until he was captured. Of the crime itself, as stated above, he was very reticent.

He told tbe Sheriff, as he told others who conversed with bim, that he was drunk at tiie time. There is a general feeling of approbation here at the course pursued by the Vigilance Com in it tee. A feeling of security prevails now that the country is rid of this blackhearted scoundrel, whose brutality made a happy home suiter and laid a respectable lady at death's door, besldesdlSDKuriug her for life. Farmers In this section of the country had become afraid to leave their homes unprotected for an instant while wives and daughters were at the mercy of villains under tbe guiae of negro laborers. Therefore fceneral satisfaction is expressed that this caw bas been made an example of.

Mrs. Tschlft'ely is still critically ill, but there are strong hopes of her recovery. DE GRAFF DEVILTRY. Sequel to the Sensation. Resulting- in the Probable Fatal Wosnding of Haa Thomas by Kewt Shoemaker.

trXCTAZ, DISPATCH TO THK BMOXiaKB. Bellefoxtaine, Obio, July 27. Ths time was when this plaoe was called "Bad Belle-fontaine," and there la no doubt but that we could furnish more sensational divorce suit, breach of promise cases, unprovoked murders, and clear more guilty parties In our Courts of Justice than any other town of its size In the State. But it appears as if the good old days have departed, and that our mantle had fallen on Do Graff, a little village on the Cleveland, Cincinnati and Indianapolis Railroad, ten miles west of here. Readers of the Err-QriBXK will no doubt remember the sensational case of Louie Valley Degrace Shoemaker, the little fourteen-year-old school-girl, whom it was charged that H.

W. Akers attempted to elope with from De Graff about the first of July, bnt was frustrated from doing so by the parents and brother of the child discovering the plan and guarding the premises with arms, a full account of which appeared in the ENQCiREa.of July 4th. Your commissioner then prophesied that If any one meddled further with the girl he would surely get hurt for bis pains. This the hsppenlngs of this afternoon have verified in the shooting and badly injuring of Hen Thomas by Newt Shoemaker, the brother of the girl. The facta In tbe case, as nearly as they can be ascertained at this time, are as follows: Thomas, who spent the fore part of the day In Bellefontalne, went home this afternoon on the express pretty well corned, and was discovered by Newt Shoemaker trying to deliver a note to bis sister.

The Shoemakers have warned any and all parties to let them and theirs alone. The young man was terribly Indignant, of course, and let Thomas have it from a shot-gun. Ths shot took effect in his face, throat and fore head. None penetrated the brain. One shot "truck his tongue, penetrating to its base; the others passed -into his throat.

Whether his Injuries are fatal it is impossible to state at this writing. There is a great deal of sympathy for the Shoemakers, and a belief that they have been greatly Imposed upon. THE COAL COMPROMISE, Ths Hooking Tails? Coal Contest at aa Xss Business Bssnaisd and Evsry Body Happy. raoTAf. zPATCM to Tun Barocraza, CotAjM btjs, Ohio, July 27.

The troubles between tbe miners and operators in the Hocking Valley, which last week threatened to assume large proportions, are practically settled. Ths miners and operators both are willing to compromise on a basis of seventy cents a ton for mining, ignoring ths Pittsburg and Columbus Miners Conventions resolutions in relation to store pay-payment ior coat weignea oerore it goes over tbs screen, etc. This proposition came first from the miners, and was readily agreed to by the operators, who gave their men a published notice this morning to resume work. Tbs men have already gone in on the Monday Creek Branch, on the Hocking main line, and at Straltsvllle, and a very large business Is anticipated for tne rest of the season, although aa yet there are some banks that have no order. The demand haa so far been stimulated by the fear of a strike, which caused consumers to lay in stocks ahead.

The situation in tho valley looks prosperous for all concerned provided no more trouble is maue ny tne miners in tne way of unreasonable demands for an advance. The price upon wnicn the operator, compromised la, all ining consiaerea, nigner tban prevails In otner mining districts of the State. Any further demands it is conceded by an impartial observer will result In a wholesale Changs In the system of labor in the valley-, as the shape In whleh the business Is and bas been for aome time precludes any further advance uj iub operators. There have been a number of undeserved attacks on President (ln.nn nf tu TTnlrins Valley road while the trouble was on in the He was placed in a delicate position, aa he bad the large Interests of his stockholders and bondholders to protect, and it was at ths asms time placed between two fires in tbs struggle between the operators and their men. The result proves that hie course was touch more sagacious than that of any of bis critic.

There will be no further stoppage In the valley, but on the contrary a full tide of trade, which will benefit tbe operators, miners, and railroad, commercial and general buslnees dependent or connected with tbs Hooking Valley mining region, whleh, as a souree of supply for a large part of Ohio and the North and North-west, is yearly Increasing In importance, neither those who are Inter ested financially In President Greene's roads nor the ooera tors or miners have anv reason 1 to recret the result of his course and counsels iln.iit. tli mat rtil mm THE TURF.

Tbe unusual Interest that was felt in the meeting waa evinced in the increased attendance over previous meetings, and in tbe general enthusiasm anown over the prospect of the week's sport.
