Summers, who was later captured by a posse, was taken to Greenvillp Pa . to nrevent mob violence. which was threatened by the enraged farmers. Miss McCrumb was walking from the school house to her home whefi the assault was made. Her screams attracted a farmer who gave the alarm. A posse immediately formed and following a search of several hours Summers was found hiding in a cemetery. Word of the assault had spread and hundreds of persons gathered about the'jail demanding the prisoner, when it was decided to rush him to Greenville for safety. Miss McCrumb was nearly choked to death, while her face alid body are i covered with bruises and scratches. ^ Bailey May Resign. Washington, Dec. 20.?Senator J. W. Bailey of Texas is considering seriously the matter of resigning his seat in the senate"and submitting his political fate to a primary in Texas. I Several informal conferences have been held during the last few days between Senator Bailey and a number of his friends from Texas and elsewhere at the Metropolitan hotel, the final outcome of which has not yet developed, but it is thought not at all unlikely that the resignation and primary course will be determined nnnn tn settle the Question of the senator's culpability in connection with the Waters-Pierce Oil comi pany, which is th^basis of the bitter I fight upon Bailey and which will not [down. Since the legislature was pledged to him before the facts in the WatersPierce controversy developed neither Bailey nor his friends, nor yet his enemies, consider that he has been completely vindicated by being elected. More New Counties. Columbia, Dec. 21.-Florence, Williamsburg, Sumter and Clarendon counties are about to pass through the ordeal of a strenous new county fight. Petitions are preparing for the formation of a new county with Beulah, Florence county, as the county seat, from parts of Williamsburg, Sumter, Clarendon and Florence. Another project, having Lake City in view as the county seat, has been started within the past twenty-four hours to offset the other, it is said. This new county would be composed almost entirely of Williamsburg county, with parts of Florence and Georgetown to make up the balance. Senator Williams and others are pushing this. 3UY * ONGLY TO ALL ( ob Stays Sold Clore Vehicles t on Hand at Price :rq,bj BRYAN IN KANSAS CITY.
