Fla., Friday.—Persons here are excited over a double lynching which took place on the outskirts of the town last night. Two negroes were shot to death by an angry crowd. Thomas Redding, a wealthy resident of Greenville, In this (Madison) county, several weeks ago was waylaid near his nouse and killed, Kfl$ body was perforated with buck- shot, fired at close range. It was not fodud until several days after the shooting. No trace of the murderers could be found. Two negroes last week were arrested In Cherry Lake, a hamlet near Greenville. They were taken to Tallahassee for safe keeping on account of the deep feeling In Greenville over Redding"s murder. Court opened this week and the two negroes were brought here yesterday morning and placed in jail. Tholr trial was set for to- day- Threats were heard after their arrival, but no trouble was anticipated unttl about six o'clock last evening, when a crowd of armed men rode into town. A few were masked. They went to the Jail and demanded admit- tance. The jailer refused at brat, but upon being told that the building would be bat- tered down and any one who opposed them would be injured he opened the outer door and gave them the keys of the cell doors. The two negroes heard the noise and began praying for Mnercy. The men rushed in, seised them, bound them with roues and dragged them out. The lynchers took the negroes to the outskirts of the town, half a mile away. The negroes were bound to trees and th^n at a signal the crowd opened lire, killing both at the first volley. Many of the lynchers are known. They were aH friends of Redding and many of them lived In and around Greenville. v\ hat steps the authorities will take is not known. It is understood here that Governor elect Jennings is greatly oppoeed to lynchings. While the guilt of the negroes wa« not proved, they were regarded as suspicious characters, and circumstantial evidence was against them. Persons throughout this part of Florida approve of the affair. tSeorare Reed Is Lynched >After Being Released. ROMK. Ga..

VENGEANCEON THE RACE k N0 LONGER IN BUSINESS i Remarkable Surgical Operation Successfully Performed by an Albany Physician. AUSANT, N. Y.,« Friday.-A remarkable sur- gical operation has been performed by Dr. Willis G. MacDonald In the Albany Hospital. Fred Bladeau. twenty-six years old. of Schodack. had his back broken near the shoulder blades by a limb of a tree falling on him two weeks ago, and his sternum was ijis- 1, . . . U I P i"l Dr. MacDonald operated upon Bladeavi the next day, and while the patient was suffer- ing from paralysis and hyperesthesia of-the legs or Increased sensatlveness to pain, he is now well on the road to recovery, ana an accident which would ordinarily cripple one for life will not leave him with any deform- ity It Is believed he will not be weak physically and will be able to chop wood Before the operation the slightest motion of the patient caused him great pain. Dr. MacDonald made an incision to the «•*% revealing separated vertebrae. There had been a hemorrhage, and some of the mus- cular tissues were torn. The clots were washed awav and every antiseptic precau- tions taken. The lacerated tissues were care- fully removed and the wound was cleaned- Two silver wirea were passed in and around the spinal processes of the adjolnlna verte- brae to hold them In their proper relations. Bladeau was then placed with a support under his chest, and to his back a plaster cast was moulded and allowed to dry. It was afterward fastened with Bandages and the oatient removed to his bed. ., Bladeau has Improved daily, and hie sen- sation is now normal, while motion has re- turned %nd other favorable signs are mani- fest. HTsuffers no pain or Fnconvenienee, and Dr. MacDonald expects a consolidation of the bones as radical as could be expected In any other fractur*. Waldemar Caapary, whose home is at No. 19 East Seventy-flrsf street, and who was for many years a jftember ef the firm of Benjamin & Casparjr, N o . 725 Broadway, is In such 'a serious mental condition that his removal to a sanitarfura Is contemplated. Mr. Caspary, who to wealthy and is well known anions New x*ork business men, es- pecially in the cloak manufacturing trade, has -suffered from mental derangement for about five years. Tg> disease first made its appearance while Mf. Caspary was actively engaged In business, but did not for some lime compel his retirement from active par- ticipation In the affairs of tha firm. In 1884 he bought out hi* partner, Mr. Benja- min, who had alwayp resided in Europe, but the firm name was not changed. H. Lew- isohn. who had been with the firm for a long time, assumed almost entire charge of the management of the business when Mr. Cas- pary's condition beogme such that he could no longer attend to |t. Mr. Caspbry, as to^ disease progressed, required the servicsjp of an attendant, who was with him constantly. He made several trips to Germany, tout derived no benefit therefrom, in tnia city the best medical skill was engaged ig his behalf, but proved powerless to stay th* course of his disease. it was then decMged t h a t Mr. Caspary's business should be disposed of, as it was out of the question to expect that he would ever again be sufheiantly well to take charge Of it. Accordingly, R was sold to Mr. Lewl- sohn, who stui retained the firm name of Benjamin & Caspary. Mr. Caspary paid fre- quent visits to the office of the firm, at No. T25 Broadway, as it was believed that it was best to humor his fesirea in this direction. Recently, however, he became so much worse that it was found tie be inexpedient to per- mit him to go ther*. He now becomes violent at times. It is said, while on other occasions his condition la such that there is no apparent evidence of his malady. Albert H. Caspary. one of his sons, is em- ployed in a brokers office in Broadway, yesterday he said that his father's' condi- tion was not as serious as had been reported. Mr. Lewisohn. however, admitted that Mr.' Caspary's conditions was not encouraging. Mr. Caspary cam* to New York from Ger- many thirty years ago.

NEW LIEUT SUES ON DUFFY MYSTERY Missing Lawyer on Night of Dis* appearance Accompanied by a Friend Part Way Home. WORE HANDSOME WATCH Companion Thinks Thty Parted Early at Sixth Avrnue and Fifty* Nmtt* street. M ':''-#'.»j»' HOOPER'S AFPAIRS '""«"' " * i" *"' TANGLED Relatives and friends of Francis Dully, a well known lawyer, who disappeared myste- rwuily on November 22. have almost de- *#palred of tracing him. Though more than live weeks have passed sinr^ the lawyer left his downtown office, at No. S Broad strest, and started toward his home, at No. 51* Man- hattan avenue, nothing is known of bis move- ments from the time he parted with a friend at Sixth avenue arid Fifty-ninth street coat* paratlvely early hi the evenim- of that day. Mr. Dun> had desks in two offices, one with Charles Fox. a lawysr, at Ho. I Broad street, the other Ip the law department of ttit- ttureau of Street Openings* la fclis Oerken iiulkllng. St West inoudwav ano Uhamb^rs street. His pnotograpn has-been scattered broadcast; tne UeiaoUve bureau lias been active. Captain McClusky having taken an especial Interest in the case, but not the slightest clew bas yet appeared to explain the mystery. Friends of Mr. Duffy, who have entertained the theory that he may have been lured away and robbed, have recently scoured from a Union square establishment tha number and description of an unusually valuable watcn and cnain which be wore, and have had cir- culars descriptive of th© timeplace distributed among tne pawnbrogera or this and other cities. It is now known that from Broad street to a point at or near Sixth avenue and Fifty- ninth street Mr, Duffy was In the company of a fellow lawyer and business associate, who has already given to tha Detective Bureau as complete an account as possible of the movements of himself and bis com- panion up to that point. At sbout six o'clock the two men had stopped at the office of Charles Fox. In the Drexel Building, at the corner of Broad and Wall streets. Mr. Duffy and his friend did not go home directly, but to the best of his companion's recollection they parted at Blsth avenue and Fifty-ninth street, and ills friend reached home, on the upper west side, at about nine o'clock In the evening. Captain McClusky, formerly head of the Detective Bureau, sifted thoroughly the statement made by the young roan who was last in Duffy's company, and was perfectly satisfied with its accuracy, so far as it went. Efforts have been equally futile to trace any connection between the disappearance of the lawyer and the disappearance, a few days before, of Alvin C. Hooper, head of the bankrupt brokerage firm of whose affairs Duffy had been made assignee. After Hoop- er's departure Duffy found In the broker s safe only $4.82 In cash and a lot of securities of doubtful value. Roger A. Pryor, Jr., as the representative of the interests of Mrs. Hooper, ha* now appeared in the case, and an effort is being made to obtain the consent of a majotgty of the broker's creditors to some basis on which It is hoped to effect a settlement of their claims. Charles Fox, who was the legal representative of the brokerage firm before its insolvency, and with whom Mr. Duffy had his office In the Dpexel Building, dis- avows any knowledge of the whereabouts of either Hr. Hooper or Mr. Puffy. Alfred Hnronworth. Napoleon of lour anltsm. who has revolutionised Eng- lish newspaper world. See to-mor- row's SUNDAY HERALD. DR.

Parkes Cadman will an- nounce his acceptance of the call to the Cen- tral Church. The change will not occur until after the close of the Methodist Conference year, In April. The acceptance will be with- out conditions other than those mentioned in the call. The Central Church, Brooklyn, ig from a money point of view the third largest Con- gregational church In New York, being ex- ceeded in this respect by the Tompkins Ave- nue Brooklyn, and the Broadway Taber- nacle Manhattan. In membership, however, It far exceeds the Broadway Tabernacle. Their incomes are:—Tompkins Avenue, $51,- 000; Broadway Tabernacle, $48,000, and the Central, $42,000. From other points of view, however, the Central Church stands in the front rank of churches in the whole Congregational body, so that If the Rev. Dr. Cadman throws away a Methodist bishopric he will be well plajced In another religious body that Is not without its honors to be- stow.

Kadford. feared she had bean kidnapped, re* turned yesterday afternoon to her home at N"o. 11 Weat Ninety-fifth street. Her father and the police were encased In a search foe her,when the young girl rang the bell of her home and was welcomed by art overjoyed mother and two sisters. She had been absent twenty-eight hours, aad during twenty hour* of that time her family had been distracted, ever her disappearance. C Few Mew York girls have such a comforta- ble home and *o many advantages as Mary Radford. Her father, a successful Insurenre and real estate broker, owns the modern four story white stone house in which the family lives, and his home is splendidly fur- nished, May, aa she is called at home, was a pupil in a private boarding school in Riv- erside drive, was always stylishly cwessed and had many girl friends. For these reasons her sudden disappearance on Thursday occasioned great surprise and pain in the Radford home. Miss May. who had suffered from a spins! trouble, had an appointment with the family physician. Dr. Brayton 8. Ball, in Wesi Thirty-sixth street. Mr. Radford had arranged to meet his daugh- ter at noon at the Thirty-third street stauon of the Sixth avenue elevated railroad. Ha was there but his daughter was not. Not finding her there, he went home and learned that she had left at twenty mlnut-v* past ten o'clock to meet him. Mr. Radfuro, bv this time thoroughly alurmed. notified ih« police. A description of the missing girl wu* sent out from Headquarters, and Captain Schmtttberger, in charge at the West lUUl,. street station, put his men at work to solvs the mystery. Mrs. Radford, her eyes red from weeping. sat In her home, speculating as to the expla- nation of her daughter's abeenee, when, at twenty minutes to three o'clock the bell rang, the door was opened and a •*»'• vant called out:— "Here's Mary!" . Mrs. Radford and her other two daughlgrffe, all fearing that the announcement was o o good to be true, hastened to welcome the re- turning girl. Amid sobs Miss Mary ex- pressed her joy at being home again, and. almost hysterical, she was., taken to her room. \ "My sister quarrelled with me the night ba- fore I went away." she said, "and *iw pushed me aside. So yesterday, instead of going to the doctor's. I went to the New- York New Haven and Hartford station *nd took a train to Great Barrlngton. I remained there over night at a hotel with relatives." Beyond this meagre statement the young girl would give no clew to the motive of ii*>r disappearance or as to her movements dur- ing the twenty-eight hours she was absent Mrs Radford, after her daughter's return, held to the theory that Miss Mary had been afraid to go to the doctor's house, beeamiA M was thought she might have to undet^o a,n operation. She had suffered from spin u trouble until her parents decided that her ailment should be given prompt attention. 1>RY GOODS. *c7^ 7 Mrs. Henrietta Fingerhut, who was a year and a half ago convicted of manslaughter In having shot and killed Paul Roehricht. a wealthy New York jeweller, while he was try- ing with several men to dispossess her from a house that he owned in 8om«rset Park, near Plainfleld.

Accustomed to the use of trlonal for some time, Mr. Westbrook did not fear the fa t | l effects of the drug. He often took it earlV In the m i m i n g after a restless night.

M.u>iso\. Fla., Friday.—Persons here are excited over a double lynching which took place on the outskirts of the town last night. Two negroes were shot to death by an angry crowd.

Thomas Redding, a wealthy resident of Greenville, In this (Madison) county, several weeks ago was waylaid near his nouse and killed, Kfl$ body was perforated with buck­shot, fired at close range. It was not fodud until several days after the shooting. No trace of the murderers could be found.

Two negroes last week were arrested In Cherry Lake, a hamlet near Greenville. They were taken to Tallahassee for safe keeping on account of the deep feeling In Greenville over Redding"s murder.

Court opened this week and the two negroes were brought here yesterday morning and placed in jail. Tholr trial was set for to­day- Threats were heard after their arrival, but no trouble was anticipated unttl about six o'clock last evening, when a crowd of armed men rode into town. A few were masked.

They went to the Jail and demanded admit­tance. The jailer refused at brat, but upon being told that the building would be bat­tered down and any one who opposed them would be injured he opened the outer door and gave them the keys of the cell doors.

The two negroes heard the noise and began praying for Mnercy. The men rushed in, seised them, bound them with roues and dragged them out. The lynchers took the negroes to the outskirts of the town, half a mile away. The negroes were bound to trees and th^n at a signal the crowd opened lire, killing both at the first volley.

Many of the lynchers are known. They were aH friends of Redding and many of them lived In and around Greenville. v\ hat steps the authorities will take is not known. It is understood here that Governor elect Jennings is greatly oppoeed to lynchings.

While the guilt of the negroes wa« not proved, they were regarded as suspicious characters, and circumstantial evidence was against them. Persons throughout this part of Florida approve of the affair.

Before the operation the slightest motion of the patient caused him great pain. Dr. MacDonald made an incision to the «•*% revealing separated vertebrae. There had been a hemorrhage, and some of the mus­cular t issues were torn. The clots were washed awav and every antiseptic precau­tions taken. The lacerated tissues were care­fully removed and the wound was cleaned-Two silver wirea were passed in and around the spinal processes of the adjolnlna verte­brae to hold them In their proper relations.

Bladeau was then placed with a support under his chest, and to his back a plaster cast was moulded and allowed to dry. It was afterward fastened with Bandages and the oatient removed to his bed. .,

Bladeau has Improved daily, and hie sen­sation is now normal, while motion has re­turned %nd other favorable signs are mani­fest. HTsuf fers no pain or Fnconvenienee, and Dr. MacDonald expects a consolidation of the bones as radical a s could be expected In any other fractur*.

Waldemar Caapary, whose home is at No. 19 East Seventy-flrsf street, and who was for many years a jftember ef the firm of Benjamin & Casparjr, No. 725 Broadway, is In such 'a serious mental condition that his removal to a sanitarfura Is contemplated.

Mr. Caspary, who to wealthy and is well known anions New x*ork business men, es­pecially in the cloak manufacturing trade, has -suffered from mental derangement for about five years. Tg> disease first made its appearance while Mf. Caspary was actively engaged In business, but did not for some lime compel his retirement from active par­ticipation In the affairs of tha firm. In 1884 he bought out hi* partner, Mr. Benja­min, who had alwayp resided in Europe, but the firm name was not changed. H. Lew-isohn. who had been with the firm for a long time, assumed almost entire charge of the management of the business when Mr. Cas-pary's condition beogme such that he could no longer attend to | t .

Mr. Caspbry, as to^ disease progressed, required the servicsjp of an attendant, who was with him constantly. He made several trips to Germany, tout derived no benefit therefrom, in tnia city the best medical skill was engaged ig his behalf, but proved powerless to stay th* course of his disease.

i t was then decMged that Mr. Caspary's business should be disposed of, as it was out of the question to expect that he would ever again be sufheiantly well to take charge Of it. Accordingly, R was sold to Mr. Lewl-sohn, who stui retained the firm name of Benjamin & Caspary. Mr. Caspary paid fre­quent visits to the office of the firm, at No. T25 Broadway, as it was believed that it was best to humor his fesirea in this direction. Recently, however, he became so much worse that it was found tie be inexpedient to per­mit him to go ther*.

He now becomes violent at times. It is said, while on other occasions his condition la such that there is no apparent evidence of his malady.

Albert H. Caspary. one of his sons, i s em­ployed in a brokers office in Broadway, yesterday he said that his father's' condi­tion was not as serious as had been reported. Mr. Lewisohn. however, admitted that Mr.' Caspary's conditions was not encouraging.

Mr. Caspary cam* to New York from Ger­many thirty years ago. He has a wife, two sons and one daughter who was married about one year ago t o O. Salomon, a leather merchant. __________________

TANGLED

Relatives and friends of Francis Dully, a well known lawyer, who disappeared myste-rwuily on November 22. have almost de-

*#palred of tracing him. Though more than live weeks have passed sinr^ the lawyer left his downtown office, at No. S Broad strest, and started toward his home, at No. 51* Man­hattan avenue, nothing is known of bis move­ments from the time he parted with a friend at Sixth avenue arid Fifty-ninth street coat* paratlvely early hi the evenim- of that day.

Mr. Dun> had desks in two offices, one with Charles Fox. a lawysr, at Ho. I Broad street, the other Ip the law department of ttit- ttureau of Street Openings* la fclis Oerken iiulkllng. St West inoudwav ano Uhamb^rs street. His pnotograpn has-been scattered broadcast; tne UeiaoUve bureau lias been active. Captain McClusky having taken an especial Interest in the case, but not the slightest clew bas yet appeared to explain the mystery.

Friends of Mr. Duffy, who have entertained the theory that he may have been lured away and robbed, have recently scoured from a Union square establishment tha number and description of an unusually valuable watcn and cnain which be wore, and have had cir­culars descriptive of th© timeplace distributed among tne pawnbrogera or this and other cities.

It is now known that from Broad street to a point at or near Sixth avenue and Fifty-ninth street Mr, Duffy was In the company of a fellow lawyer and business associate, who has already given to tha Detective Bureau as complete an account as possible of the movements of himself and bis com­panion up to that point.

At sbout six o'clock the two men had stopped at the office of Charles Fox. In the Drexel Building, at the corner of Broad and Wall streets. Mr. Duffy and his friend did not go home directly, but to the best of his companion's recollection they parted at Blsth avenue and Fifty-ninth street, and i l ls friend reached home, on the upper west side, at about nine o'clock In the evening. Captain McClusky, formerly head of the Detective Bureau, sifted thoroughly the statement made by the young roan who was last in Duffy's company, and was perfectly satisfied with its accuracy, so far as it went.

Efforts have been equally futile to trace any connection between the disappearance of the lawyer and the disappearance, a few days before, of Alvin C. Hooper, head of the bankrupt brokerage firm of whose affairs Duffy had been made assignee. After Hoop­er's departure Duffy found In the broker s safe only $4.82 In cash and a lot of securities of doubtful value.

Roger A. Pryor, Jr., as the representative of the interests of Mrs. Hooper, ha* now appeared in the case, and an effort is being made to obtain the consent of a majotgty of the broker's creditors to some basis on which It is hoped to effect a settlement of their claims. Charles Fox, who was the legal representative of the brokerage firm before its insolvency, and with whom Mr. Duffy had his office In the Dpexel Building, dis­avows any knowledge of the whereabouts of either Hr. Hooper or Mr. Puffy.

DR. CADMAN ACCEPTS CONGREGATIONAL CALL

Will Leave the Metropolitan Methodist Tabernacle for (he

Cen t r a lChurch , Brooklyn.

In the Central Congregational Church, Brooklyn, and the Metropolitan Methodist Tabernacle, Manhattan, to-morrow morning the Rev. Dr. S. Parkes Cadman will an­nounce his acceptance of the call to the Cen­tral Church. The change will not occur until after the close of the Methodist Conference year, In April. The acceptance will be with­out conditions other than those mentioned in the call.

The Central Church, Brooklyn, ig from a money point of view the third largest Con­gregational church In New York, being ex­ceeded in this respect by the Tompkins Ave­nue Brooklyn, and the Broadway Taber­nacle Manhattan. In membership, however, It far exceeds the Broadway Tabernacle. Their incomes are:—Tompkins Avenue, $51,-000; Broadway Tabernacle, $48,000, and the Central, $42,000. From other points of view, however, the Central Church stands in the front rank of churches in the whole Congregational body, so that If the Rev. Dr. Cadman throws away a Methodist bishopric he will be well plajced In another religious body that Is not without its honors to be­stow.

QUARRELLED WUH' HER SISTER • i i 'wii i m i a • • •

Mary Radford, tha ftftaan-yaar-oid girt whoa* parents, Mr. aud Mrs. William I.. Kadford. feared she had bean kidnapped, re* turned yesterday afternoon to her home at N"o. 11 Weat Ninety-fifth street. Her father and the police were encased In a search foe her,when the young girl rang the bell of her home and was welcomed by art overjoyed mother and two sisters. She had been absent twenty-eight hours, aad during twenty hour* of that time her family had been distracted, ever her disappearance. C

Few Mew York girls have such a comforta­ble home and *o many advantages as Mary Radford. Her father, a successful Insurenre and real estate broker, owns the modern four story white stone house in which the family lives, and his home is splendidly fur­nished, May, aa she is called at home, was a pupil in a private boarding school in Riv­erside drive, was always stylishly cwessed and had many girl friends.

For these reasons her sudden disappearance on Thursday occasioned great surprise and pain in the Radford home. Miss May. who had suffered from a spins! trouble, had an appointment with the family physician. Dr. Brayton 8. Ball, in Wesi Thirty-sixth street. Mr. Radford had arranged to meet his daugh­ter at noon at the Thirty-third street stauon of the Sixth avenue elevated railroad. Ha was there but his daughter was not.

Not finding her there, he went home and learned that she had left at twenty mlnut-v* past ten o'clock to meet him. Mr. Radfuro, bv this time thoroughly alurmed. notified ih« police. A description of the missing girl wu* sent out from Headquarters, and Captain Schmtttberger, in charge at the West lUUl,. street station, put his men at work to solvs the mystery.

Mrs. Radford, her eyes red from weeping. sat In her home, speculating as to the expla­nation of her daughter's abeenee, when, at twenty minutes to three o'clock the bell rang, the door was opened and a •*»'• vant called out:—

"Here's Mary!" . Mrs. Radford and her other two daughlgrffe,

all fearing that the announcement was o o good to be true, hastened to welcome the re­turning girl. Amid sobs Miss Mary ex­pressed her joy at being home again, and. almost hysterical, she was., taken to her room. \

"My sister quarrelled with me the night ba-fore I went away." she said, "and *iw pushed me aside. So yesterday, instead of going to the doctor's. I went to the New-York New Haven and Hartford station *nd took a train to Great Barrlngton. I remained there over night at a hotel with relatives."

Beyond this meagre statement the young girl would give no clew to the motive of ii*>r disappearance or as to her movements dur­ing the twenty-eight hours she was absent

Mrs Radford, after her daughter's return, held to the theory that Miss Mary had been afraid to go to the doctor's house, beeamiA

M was thought she might have to undet^o a,n operation. She had suffered from spin u trouble until her parents decided that her ailment should be given prompt attention.
