the slightest other outward sigrt of nervousness or excitement Cap
tain Peter C. Hains r.,tU. S. A., and his brother, T. Jenkins Hains,
were arraigned in the Long Island City police court today ofi the
..charge of murdering William E. Annis, advertising manager of
Recreation and the Burr Mcintosh Magazine, whom Captain Hains
shot to death Saturday on-the float of the Bayside Yacht club.

room. Hundreds of persons had gath

the crowd was so great the officers had
trouble making way for the prisoners
to enter. , , . .

Captain Haln believed Annis had
been the cause of the trouble between
him and Mrs. Hains.
T. Jenkins Hains, with drawn re
volver, held back the crowd while- Cap
tain Hains killed Annis. The district
attorney holds that under the law they
are'equally guilty.
On account of the prominence of all
participants the case has aroused the
greatest interest, and there is no doubt
the trial will be dramatic as well as
eensatidtial.
Premeditated Crime.

they are facing the charge for which
the penalty is death and they have In

Springfield, 111 , Aug. 17 The rioters
who had this city under a reign of ter
ror since Friday night in a "bloody race
war, and were only checked by the pres
ence of more than 3,000 soldiers, are
thoroughly awed today at the prospect
of swift and rigid punishment for the
lenders. The realization that some one
must pay for the lawlessness and crime
struck home with a sudden jojt, and
some of the most vicious In their at
tacks upon the blacks today are slip-
fiing out of town in much the.a&me
aaliion as the negroes, who are con
vinced they can never live here again.
The soldiers are m complete cnarge
or the city, ana no aisoraer was report
ed this morning except In outlying districts,-and
this was not of importance.
Actintr under the direction of Gov
ernor Deneen, Judge James A. Creigh
ton of the circuit court today ordered a
special grand Jury to convene tomorrow
and take up at once the case of George
Richardson, the negro charged with as
saulting Mrs. Earl Hallam. It was the
Hallam case that started the rioting.
and the grand jury will begin with it.
As soon as the Kicjiarason case is
disposed of, an investigation to deter
mine who were the leaders of the mob
will be started.
Governor Deneen has ordered that the
strictest investigation be made and that
the grand jury proceed with the pre
cision and swiftness of a military court.
He is determined that those who are re
sponsible shall be brought to justice.
Now that the law has regalrjed the
upper hand, and the rear or the courts
has spread through the ranks of the
rioters. It Is doubtful if any further
tliouble will result, unless through some
sudden oumreaK.
Special precautions will be taken to
morrow at, the time of the funeraj of
John Colwell. the coal miner who died
of bullet wounds receive during the
rioting, it is oenevea tnat tne g.ooo
miners In this district will attend the
funeral, and a demonstration is feared.
The funeral of Frank Delmore, another
miner who died of injuries yesterday,
also probably will be the occasion for
the gathering of the miners.
Probably one of he first cases to
be taken up by the gfand Jury will be
that of Abraham Raymen, a Russian
Sew. who has confessed that he was a
member of the mob that cut the throat
of William Donegan, an aged negro, and
Judge Alton B. Tarker Will

hanged him to a telegraph pole. He also
took part In the lynching of Burton
Saturday morning.
The negroes are still maklnc their
way out of the city, and It Is believed
that within a week the exodus will have
depopulated the negro quarter of the
city. The majority of the negroes seem
to have accented the rierr that tK.v
cftnnot live $are. The racial hatred haa
become so Intense that It probably will
not be safe for a black man to appear
unprotected In this city for months to
come.
The opening of Uie Democratfc
campaign In this Btate will be
marked by a rousing meeting at the
Heilig tomorrow night, when Jtldge
Alton B. Parker, presidential nom
inee four years ago for the Demo
cratic party, will speak to a large

Grand Rapids, Mich., Aug. 17 Housed
in the detention hospital of this city is
an unknown man awaiting, identifica
tion. His case Is full of the dramatic
and pathetic. His memory 1b shattered
and he cannot remember his name or his
home nor can he give any hint that
might lead to his identification. Stran
gest of all, however, Is the tale the au
thorities have gotten from htm by care
ful questioning and which seems to
tally with the general Impression of the
man.
Was In football Oame.
He claims that the last thing he can
remember was being In the thick of
the fray on the football field. He was
playing the position of quarterback for
his college. te tninKs ne was Kicked
in the head. The next Incident remem
bered was awakening In a hospital,
but where It was has completely passed
out of his mind. A lapse of some months
must have Intervened during which time
his memory is a complete blank. Last
Saturday he wandered into a small town
just outside of Grand Rapids, In a dazed
and half starved condition. The author
ities, after feeding him, turned him over
to this city.
Doctors wno nave investigated the
case claim it is one of the most un
usual cases they have ever known. His
mind seems to be clear In many respects,
yet when It comes to remembering
names, either of people of places.- It Is
absolutely blank.' His memory seems
to be subject to power of suggestion;
for Instance, when he entered the deten
tion hospital last Saturday night It was
necessary to give him a name and the
attendant suggested a list of eight or
10 names without result until the name
Frank was suggested, and he immedi
ately brightened up with the reply,
"That's it. Frank."
Talks Incoherently.
A representative of this paper today
called on this man of' mystery and
found him a very interesting talker; in
terested In all kinds of sport, though
unable to tal the Initiative on anything
or ,0.1118 n&iuva. as a queawu to uraw
him out he was asked if he knew a
football player named "Yost." He
thought a minute In a dazed fashion.
"Why, Yost Isn't a football player; he
is a trainer," showing he had soma
remnants of his memory left. He was
asked in regard to many universities
and colleges, most of which he said he
had heard of, and several he claims to
have been at during his football career
and other times. He has a distinct rec
ollection of having been at Cornell and
at Princeton, and of having witnessed
the boat races at Poughkeepsie, though
this information was only obtained after
he had been asked definitely regarding
them.
He seems to be exceedingly well edu
cated and writes a good hand. He real
izes his own condition and sits hours at
a time thinking and trying to remember
some name which will lead to his sal
vation. ,
A most pathetic Incident occurred this
afternoon, which shows more clearly
than words his mental condition, his
education and his feelings. While talk
ing with him, a magazine was' noticed
at his side on which he had written
these words in a clear hand while think
ing of. his situation: "Where are the
friends of yesterday, gone with the dead
things of - " but here It closed.
The police are bending every effort to
locate his friends and relatives.

The safe of the Cudahy Packing com

blown open by burglars last night, but
the only loss was the safe itself, which;
was virtually ruined by the force of tna
explosion.
n fact, the safe-blowers did not suc

away, apparently before they had time
to complete the job. If they had gotten .

to the statement ,of - Cashier Haskttt,
who says there was no money1 in the
safe, as It Is contrary to the policy of
the company to leave any funds in the
office over night.
How the burglar or burglars ever got
Into the building the cashier did not
known as he said everything was locked
when he arrived this mornine. However.
the police had been there before him
and had closed up everything. Tho lock,
on the front door of the office, however,
Is only a simple affair and an expert
erglr would find no trouble in pick
ing It.
Shook Smashes Windows.
The explosion was evidently of nitro
glycerin and was of great force. Win- .
broken and many of the panes in the
glass partition just back of where the
safe stands were blown out. One of
the heavy outer doors of tho safe, which
is a substantial steel affair, was blown
almost entirely off Its hinges and Is .
twisted and torn into shreds by the
force of the explosion. Even the frame
work of the safe was broken. But the
Inner doors were unharmed and Clerk'
Haskett says the burglars would have
found their work cut out for them if
they had attempted to open them. .
iiasKeit is extretneiv reticent m dis
cussing the affair, stating that it la
contrary to the policy of nls company
to tell the public anything about such
happenings. However, he savs the safe
was empty and that the burglars con- '
fined their attention to it. nothing else
In the office being disturbed except by
the force of the explosion.
The attempt to blow open the safe
was mnde at 2:35 o'clock this morning. -'
The explosion was heard by - Fireman ;
