FELL FROM SCAFFOLD,
Packing House Employs Sustained In-

By Associated Press.
Linton, Ind., July 6.—The appearance
of eight Terre Haute negroe in Un-
ion today caused a demonstration in
which the men narrowly escaped death.
Alex Sanderson, a Terre Haute cater-
er. was employed to serve the banquet
at the Institution of a new lodge of the
Elks. He took his cook and waiters
with, him and while the lodge work
in the hall was going on several hun-
dred miners assembled in the street
and threatened to to dynamite the hall
unless the negroes were sent out of
town. The eight negroes were hurried
into a cab and driven to Jacksonville,
where they were put on the train for
Terre Haute. Six policemen sur-
rounded the carriage and beat back the
crowd while the negroes were being
driven out of town.
The intense feeling here against the
negroes has been fostered for several
years and In that time not a negro has
been allowed to live In Linton. In 1196
a coal company imported 300 negroes
to take the places of strikers In one of
the mines. The negroes organized a
company and drilled with rifles on the
streets. One of them shot a white boy
and the entire white population,
aroused at midnight by the fire bell,
raided the negro quarters and drove
every one of them from the city, sev-
eral being shot.

Two railroad ordinances were known
to be a part of the business to be
disposed of by the city council last
night and predictions were very freely
made that the session would com-
mence in a storm and end in a perfect
cyclone. The members themselves
evidently expected tempestuous times,
and entered the hall bruskly, hurriedly
and with some excitement. Several of
them took seats and wondered why his
honor Mayor White did not show up
and call the body to order.
He was just a little tardy, but when
he did ascend to the stand and mall
the council to order the business
moved off as smoothly as oil, and those
who predicted a stormy session, and
one prolonged far into the night were
sorely disappointed.
One reason the council was on its
good behavior was because, perhaps.
It had company. Mayor Bowers of
Palestine was a guest of honor, and
the whole bunch of the aidermen were
as sweet as sugar, and behaved beau-
tifully. dispatched business in fine
order and got through at 11:39. They
evidently felt they had covered them-
selves with glory, for when they dis-
persed all were laughing and joking
and in the best humor in the world.
City council was called to order at
8:30 by Mayor White, the following
aidermen answering to their names:
Crooker, Shelley, Shumate, Ulit,
Schneider, Haynes, Mackin, Maddox,
Miller, Nitschke, Redd, Smith, Hume.
The proceedings as recorded were on
motion adopted.
