July IS. It is now an ac-,-,pr,.i fact that the 21 men under in :;. rnu tit here for the lynching of J. V. .' ::;.-un in Anson county win not to tri 'i at this special term of court. Th. i "int of law raised by attorneys t. r the ilvfensc. that the revised act as :t nw appears in the Code, does not ghe tho (Iraml Jury of one county the rich- to find bills for a crime of this kinl committed in another county, v.ill bo ustained by Judge Shaw. His Honor intimated from the bench jv.-rerday that he would take this po sition, and it is conceded that as soon as tiit 'Irand Jury has fiinished its work and all bills of indictment have fct:n returned, the case will be ended, in sc f;r as the present term of the court is concerned. The ca.se will go up on appeal by the State and the defendants will be bv;:n i over to appear at a subsequent term of I'nion county court, pending the decision by the Supreme Court.

If the point is not sustained the men will te tried here on the present in dictments. Yesterday Afternoon. At 2:"0 the second session of the lay convened. Long before this time the largo court room was crowded to overflowing. Nearly every one expected the J'u'.se to make some move which vouM relieve the inquisitive mind. Judze Shaw sat for some moments s-ilcnt, with an occasional bow to ac 'l'l&intanees. and a smile he greeted the members of the court. Thotigh cool ani unruffled, it was very evident that his mini was not an idle one. He im patiently sends for the Solicitor, who conif-s mon the scene with his assis tants for the State at 2:30 o'clock. The Giand Jury came back in to be inform al further on conspiracy. His Honor goes over the same ground he took be fore in explaining conspiracy. Also the term "present" is not understood in meaning. "All that this means," said the court "is that you believe from the evidence given 5011 that the accused otiqht to be put upon trial." The Grand Jury was then retired. Solicitor Robinson for the State in stitutes a new indictment, which is 'iiiferenr from the first in that it has thrv. r-onnts. where the first one had only one. The latest indictment against these accused lynchers contains as WIows: First count. Charging a con spiracy on the part of Zeke Lewis and others to break into the county jail it: Anson county. Second count. Charg ing Zeke Lewis and others with break ing in'r and entering the common jail of Anson county with intent to injure sr.1 kill John V. Johnson. Third count. "I rat 7x ke Lewis unlawfully, wilfully, wickedly and feloneously did injure, I.vnch and kill one John V. Johnson in the county jail of Anson. The first contained the clause against breaking and entering; the latter has two counts extra added. Tno counsel for the defendants moved to '-nash this bill. The Court there tJIifn intimated that the first two cr,'ints had been passed upon already, ari'l that the last count contained no fiiarse under the law. As yet no ruling ha:; been handed down by Judge Shaw on '-it her question. I -iKier the last indictment eleven men are indicted, true bills having 'fen handed in by the Grand Jury; the ' f n.!;,nrs of these bills are Messrs. A- livens. Lester Johnson, Jno. 'vciis, Jim Swink, Ira Johnson, Tom Auams, Lewis Adams, John Jones, ;x Dunn, J. Frank Xivens, and Zeke i-owi.s. In the court room, during the latter atfernoon hours jail cases were being oi -poi.ed of the number of idle attend-ant-i thinned down, and less than one f nth of the crowd remained until even y-r-f.hii was dcciaretL A sight fit to 'rouse the deepest emotions of pity it. to witness the sweltering crowd firing the hottest part of the day in " M tempts to keep physically cool. as the presiding Judge remarked: This l! a wam time to hold court vfonithv J""ist men of all ages, and the few on:en here as witnesses are compell- 1 to at there while sweltering away; under the Humidity of a sun's torrid ?,f m Pa,tience with honest up turned faces all await anxiously for a decision of his Honor wWh lieve the mind. As yet it is uncertain how long these hundreds of witness es will be retained here. At times it seems that all will be dismissed within me ue lew minutes; then again a move on the iart of the prosecution oinis iue nope. DEATH OF MR. LEVY.

THINKS THE STATE Charlotte Attorney Thinks two Sections of the Revisal Have been Over-Looked by Counsel at Monroe, in the Case of the Alleged Anson County Lynchers. A well known member of the Char lotte bar today called the attention of a News reporter to two sections of The Revisal, one on lynching and the other oa venue, which the attorney says to his mind, is full evidence and proof that the State has jurisdiction in the cases of the alleged lynchers on trial at Monroe. The attorney add s that he cannot see how it is possibel that the unex pected turn of affairs at Monroe could have come to pass unless the sections given below have been overlooked. Sometimes a section bearing on one subject will be found under another head, and The News' informant states that he is of the opinion, after study ing the matter the greater part of the morning, that it is just possible that one of the two sections given below have been ovelooked. "Otherwise," says he, "I do not understand how the State could tail to have jurisdiction in the case." The sections referred to are given in full below, the first referring to lynch ing and the second to venue. Section 3698 of the Revisal reads: Lynching If any person shall conspire to break or enter any jail or other place of confinement of persons charg ed with crime or under sentence, for the purpose of killing or otherwise injuring any person confined there in or if any person shall engage in breaking into jail or other place of confinement of such prisoner with the attention to kill or injure any such nrisoner he shall be guilty of a felony and upon conviction or upon a plea of guilty shall be fined not less than $iuu or imprisoned in the State prison or county jail not less than two years or more than 15. years. Section 3233 of the Revisal says: The superior court of any county ad joining the county in which the crime of lynching shall be committed, snan have full and complete jurisdiction over the crime and the offender to the same extent, and if the crime had been committed in the boundary of an ad joining county and whenever the solici tor has information of the commission of such crime it shall be his duty to furnish such information to the grand jury of all adjoining counties to the one in which the crime was committed from time to time until the offenders are brought to justice. ; R T THE SITUATION RUSSIA GROWS MORE OMIIIOUSJACH DAY The Alarming Reports from the Interior, the Attitude of Por liament and the General Con fusion Make Almost any Dis aster now Possible. In the Interior the Story is One of Burnings of Houses, Robbery Murder and General Collisions Between the Crazed Peasants and Guards. By Associated Press. St. Petersburg, July 18. The polit cal barometer is again falling. Tho confusion which seems to have taken possession of the upper spheres sinco the efforts to form a coalition or tho ministry failed, coupled with tho alarming reports from the interior, and the attitude of Parliament, make almost anything possible. There has been a marked renewal of . apprehen sion that the crisis may end in a coup-de etat against Parliament. Despatches from the interior con tinue to tell without interruption tne stories of the burning of Manor houses, robbery, murders', collisions between peasants and rural guards and the hurried despatch of troops here and there. The centre of. the peasants upris ing is Veronezh province where the peasants in their mania for the de struction of property do not discrim inate between friends and enemies as evidenced by the complete devasta tion of the e.state of Kokoshkine, one of the most prominent Constitutional Democrats in the lower house. Today's reports describes the situ ation in that province as "hopeless" from the standpoint of the landlords. The situation is almost as bad In Poltava and Smolensk provinces. In Tambov province 80 peasants are re ported killed or wounded by the dra goons. RACES WERE POSTPONED. A Splendid Card Arranged for Friday Afternoon at 3:30 o'clock.
