But Attorney General Silent as to Calling "Graft" Cases. Columbia, Sept. 3.?"I am not in position just now to state what course I shall pursue in the matter," said Attorney General J. Fraser Lyon today, when asked whether or not he would bring to trial the so-called "graft" cases, which are on the docket of the Richland county court to begin Tuesday, September 5. Mr. Lyon returned to Columbia only to-aay, ana saia ne naa no siaiement to make just now in regard to I these cases. The coming term of court will probably last several weeks, and in his conversation the attorney general implied that he ! would have sufficient time to form a deliberate decision in regard to the cases. Attorneys for the defence in a number of these cases have filed; at the office of the attorney general notices that they will press for trial at the coming term of the Richland county court. This notice calls to mind the fact that trial was asked by the defence during the term of court beginning May 22, but the cases were continued on motion of the attorney general. "The court of general sessions for Richland county convenes again on September 5," reads the demand, "and we feel that the State has had ample time and should now be ready for trial, and we write t.n notifv vou that we will Dress for trial at the approaching term of court." The cases upon which this demand has heen made are the following: The State against J. S. Farnum, J. M. Rawlinson, Joseph B. Wylie and John Black, charged with cheating and defrauding the State to the amount of $4,825. The State against J. M. Rawlinson', Joseph B. Wylie, John T. Early, Jamse S. Farnum, John Black, Morton A. Goodman and H. Lee Solomons, charged with conspiracy to cheat and defraud to the amount of $133,000. The State against Goodman, Boy kin, Towill, Tatum and Weiskoff, charged with conspiracy. The State against John Black, indicted for accepting a bribe of $2,500. Though no official confirmation has been received, it is being currently rumored here that there will be no prosecution in these cases until the conclusion of the present administration. ?f.

Durant, Okla., Sept. 3.?Horace Gribble, a white farmer, was killed in a battle between five white men and five negroes, near Caddo last night. The white men declare they were fired upon while passing the home of a negro named Daniels, while the negroes say the whites threw a stick of dynamite at the house and commenced firing. Feeling against the negroes is bitter and further race trouble is feared. A stick of dynamite, with the fuse partly burned, was found near the house. After the encounter the white men fled to Caddo and told of the fight. .Officers hastened to the scene of the encounter and found Gribble's body. The negroes did not know they had killed the man until informed V.tt oiilhnridoa UJ WUV UUl/UVl IViVUi The negroes here, fearing retaliation by the whites, are sacrificing their crops and property to get away. The clash resulted from race trouble, which has existed for the last month, during which one white woman has heen attacked and killed and three attempts at similar crimes have been made by negroes.

No warning notices were necessary. The blacks took fright at the temper of the whites. All outgoing trains were crowded, when extra facilities were required for the handling of their baggage. More than 1,500 purchased tickets for McAlester, Muskogee, Oklahoma, and Bonham, Whiteright and Denison, Texas, and smaller towns. Cattle, hogs and crops were sacrificed at ridiculous prices, in order to raise money, while much other personal property was left behind.

It is charged that there are many irregularities in her accounts and that there are evidences of raised vouchers and forgery of seals of notaries public, for which she only can account. In the meantime she appears to have fallen completely out of sight. It is said that vouchers were tampered with before they reached the auditor for payment. An instance is cited of a livery bill for $2 which was raised on the voucher to $12. Another bill for 50 cents was raised in the voucher to $20.50. It is also charged that a number of notaries public, whose seals were attached to vouchers, have said that the vouchers were tampered with after the seals were affixed.

Ehrhardt, S. 0. M Dying Man Warns of Peril. Warren, Ohio, Aug. 31.?Thomas Lansdown was electrocuted to-day while he pleaded for help, yet warned his rescuers off. He was driving along the street when a telephone" wire fell across a power wir^aSTd..^ struck him. He stried to push the wire, carrying 2,400 volts, away from him, but after taking holdxof it he could not let go. His cries were heard by Fire Chief Moser, who rushed with others to him and started to tear the wire away. "Don't touch it, or you'll be kill- > ed," cried Lansdown, who could h?jd^ \ -4,^8 ly articulate the words, so was his face and convulsed his "Get something to grab it with, and ^ r-5j|l hurry, or I'll be killed." Moser and others in the crowd rushed up hesitatingly. "Get one of those baskets over there and catch the wire with the handle," screamea Lansdown. Moser followed his instructions, but as he pulled the wire j out of Lansdown's hands the man. dropped dead.
