Andy Carr, deputy constable of
Fort Smith. Ark . and well known
as a detect ve and Frisco rail-
way secret service man, was fat-
ally wounde d by Sanford Lewis,
a negro, who was later dragged
from the jail and hanged to a
trolley pole by a mob in that city
early Sunday morning.
Carr had interferred in a quar-
rel between the nego and a ni'g-
ro woman, when Lewis pulled a
gun and shot the officer above
the left eye as the latter was tak-
ing him to jail. The wounded
constable was taken to St. Ed-
ward's infirmary in Fort Smith
and is believed to be dying.
A mob of five hundred men
quickly formed and e>n being in-
formed that Carr was dead pro-
ceeded without delay to batter
down the jail entrance. Railroad
rails and sledws were obtained
and the jail door was torn away.
Then the n gro, quivering with
fright, yet making no outcry,
was taken in front of a hotel on
(Garrison avenue, near the heart
of the cily and stretched to a
street ear pole. It was the first
lynching in the history of Sebas-
tian county, Ark'.
Carr was shot down at the
Pony Express company's stable
at T n'eh and A slreets. about
two hours before the lynching.
Before the shooting, Detectives
Pitcock and Jarnigan arrested a
negro and negr ss for quarreling
at Tenth street and Garrison ave-
nue. The negro jerked away
from Pitcock and started to run
away. Williams, who was with
Carr at the time started in pur-
suit of the negro with Pitcock.
At Ninth and A streets Will-
iams said Pitcock,, after firing
wild at the negro several times,
gave Williams his gun. Williams
pursued the negro to the Pony
express office where he says he
knocked the fugitive dowfo with
his revolver. The negro rose to
his feet and started in an oppo-
site direction, according to Will-
iams. Before Williams could
turn around and take up the
chase again, lie says he heard a
shot. Turning around he saw
Carr reel and fall. Williams says
he beut the ne gro until Officer
Lacey arrived. He turned the
prisoni r over to the offcier and
took Carr to the hospital.
Lacey and another officer took
the negro to jail followed by a
big crowd. Immediately the mob
formed. Jailer Stansberry hardi-
ly had time to lock the jail
door when the mob broke down
the frame barricade about the
place and started for the- prison.
Seizing a big timber the mob be-
gan to batter at he jail door.
Momentarily the mob grew in
numbers until a thousand per-
sons had gathere d within a short
time. While some jeered the po-
lice, a handful of officers who
stood quielly by, others cherecd
the mob which was battering at
the steel door leading into the
hold-over where the negro was
confined. For an hour and
half the mob tried to batter
down the door.
Becoming discouraged with
their efforts to break down the
door the mob began prying off
the bars of the window. In a
few minutes the bars yielded

frames and a half dozen strug-
gling men jumped through the
