V 11, XVI RAIDERS DO MURDER Woman's Head Blown Off By "Joint Smashers" In Kansas. TRYING TO PROTECT HUSBAND Twenty Masked Men Composed the Gang of Raiders and Guns Used—Arrests Being Made. In a raid on a "joint" at Millwood, Kan., Monday night by twenty masked men, heavily armed, Mrs. Rose Hudson, wife of the bartender, was instantly killed. William Webb, one of the raiders, was shot through one arm and two or three of his companions were slightly wounded. Young farmers composed the party. Two arrests were made Tuesday and much exe- tement prevails over the prospect of a still more serious collision between the factions. Shortly after 10 o'clock Monday night two men entered the "joint," which is said to be owned by Mrs. Michael Lochner. Warning had previously been served on the proprietress to cease business, but compliance was refused. When the men entered they ordered drinks, which were at once served by Bartender Hudson. One of the men rapped loudly on the bar and at this signal about twenty more men rushed into the place. All carried arms and wore masks. Half a dozen shotguns were raised and discharged into the ceiling, apparently to demoralize the keepers of the place. Two men rushed upon Hudson with guns leveled at his head. He grasped the barrels and pushed them aside just as they exploded. Hudson slipped to the floor. Just then Mrs. Hudson dashed in and hardly had she crossed half the intervening space when another gun was discharged point blank at her head. The whole top of her skull was blown away, and Hudson, regaining his feet, bore her to the rear room, where she died. Ten men are said to have been waiting under, arms to help defend the "joint" from the expected raid, but when the band entered the place and began shooting the defenders became panic stricken and decamped. When the raiders saw Mrs. Hudson fall they, too, became frightened and hastily decamped without attempting to destroy the place. Sheriff Everhardy, of Leavenworth, was quickly notified of the raid and arrested John and Henry Wilson, farmers, charged with participation in the affair. Several more arrests are expected. A special from Leavenworth, Kan., says: Four farmers arrested for complicity in the saloon raid at Millwood, Kas., that resulted in the killing of Mrs. Rosa Hudson, the bartender's wife, have been lodged in the county jail. The county attorney says he will file a complaint against them of murder in the first degree. The raiders are John Willburn, William Thornburg, Andy Wilson and——Turner. All are young men and all but Turner are married. CABINET TAKES ACTION. A Washington special says: During the cabinet meeting Tuesday a cablegram from Minister Conger was submitted refering to the proposed military expedition in China under command of Count Von Waldersee. It disclosed the fact that our minister had protested to the ministers' council against hostile movements of this character, but that his protest had failed to receive consideration, the other foreign ministers taking the ground that they had no authority to influence military operations one way or the other. Minister Conger has been instructed by cable to communicate to the foreign ministers at Pekin the feelings of the United States government that further hostile expeditions should not be indulged in at this time. This action was, taken by the state department after the cabinet discussion had developed the attitude of the administration. It is understood that this course was regarded as best since it left room for another appeal to the powers, directly through their foreign offices, in case Mr. Conger's efforts are futile. The state department officials decline to make public the text of the note. However, it was said to be in perfect accord with the policy already developed and to make manifest the conviction of the United States government that these proposed hostile expeditions are in violation of the rights of the individual parties to the peace negotiations. The Savannah Tribune. MURDER AND SUICIDE Mystery of Young Widow's Disappearance From Atlanta Revealed In Bloody Tragedy. An Atlanta dispatch says: The dead bodies of Mrs. H. M. Wilson, a young widow, and William Hamilton, who mysteriously disappeared from the city over a week ago, were found Sunday evening about a mile from the bridge over the Chattahoochee river in Cobb county. Near the body of the woman was her murderer, William Hamilton. The man had killed the woman and then himself. Before he met death Hamilton evidently set fire to the woods near the place where the bodies were found, as both were fearfully burned. The finding of the bodies gave the solution of the mystery that has been vexing the detective department and making frantic with grief the relatives of the couple since their sudden disappearance. It has resulted in the total prostration of the mother of Mrs. Wilson, and leaving an orphan, a sweet little girl of seven. The bodies were found by two little negro boys about 150 yards from the road crossing Chattahoochee river near some old breast works, half a mile from the bridge. The body of Mrs. Wilson lay near that of Hamilton and through her right temple was a hole made by a ball from a 32-calibre pistol which sent her soul to eternity. Her features were distorted and her body charred and burned almost beyond recognition. The left foot was burned entirely away, all her hair was burned off, one hand was charred and but little remained of the clothing she had worn when she left home. Hamilton lay with a hole entirely through his head, made by a ball which entered two inches above the right ear and plowed its way through the brain. His clothing was also badly burned and the disturbed leaves and growth near the place where the bodies were found proved that death came after a struggle. A 32-caliber revolver of the Smith & Wesson type lay near the right hand of Hamilton. Three of its chambers were emptied, and this circumstance told the story of the murder and suicide. SOUTHERN PROGRESS. New Industries Reported In the South During the Past Week. Among the more important of the new industries reported for the past week are as follows: A brass foundry at Birmingham, Ala.; a broom factory at Tuscumbia, Ala.; a $50,000 carpet factory at Charlotte, N.C.; a chair factory at High Point, N.C.; a coopera- plant at Nashville, Teen.; cotton gins at Bristol, Fla., and Rex, Ga.; a $50,000 cotton company at Greensboro, N.C.; $80,000 cotton mills at Rutherfordton, N.C. dry kilns at Nashville; electric light plants at Hawkinsville, Ga., Orange, Texas, Fairfax C.H., Va.; a $1,000,000 electric light and power plant at Pine Bluff, Ark., and others at Huntington, Ark., and West Nashville, Tonn.; an exclosure factory at Montgomery, Ala.; a $1,000,000 fertilizer factory at Charleston, S.C., flouring mills at Cookeville and Spring Hill, Tenn., and Savory, Tex.; a $50,000 furniture factory at Burlington, N.C.; ice factories at Hawkinsville, Ga, Smithville, Texas, and Newport News, Va.; knitting mills at Waukeeah, Fla., and land company at Norfolk, Va.; a $400,000 land company at Richmond, Va.; a $50,000 lumber company at Valdosta, Ga., and another at Atlanta, Ga.; a $50,000 lumber mill at Danville, Va.; a $1,000,000 manganese and iron company at Staunton, Va.; a $50,000 packing company at Fort Worth, Texas; a $500,000 oil company at Hallettville, Texas, and another at Port Arthur, Texas; a $300,000 oil and coal company at Greenville, Texas; oil mills at Dawson, Ga., New Albany, Miss., and Laurinburg, N.C. a $600,000 rice mill at Donaldsonville, La.; a sugar refinery at Bristol, Fla.; a sash, door and blind factory at Staunton, Ga.; a shuttle and Bobbin factory at Hickory, N.C.; a $25,000 soap factory in Knoxville, Tennessee and another at Corsicana, Texas; a stave factory at Crossville, Tenn.; telephone companies at Ashland and Lexington, Ky., and a wire-drawing plant at Ashland, Ky.-Tradesman (Chattanooga, Tenn.) SUBSIDY BILL DISPLACED. Senate Takes Up For Discussion the Oleomargarine Measure. A Washington special says: At the conclusion of the morning hour in the senate Saturday, when the unfinished business—the shipping bill—was laid before the body, Mr. Spooner, of Wisconsin, moved to proceed to the consideration of the oleomargarine bill. By a practically unanimous vote—only two senators voting in the negative—the motion prevailed. Thus the subsidy bill was displaced as the oleomargarine bill was taken up. After little over an hour's consideration of that measure it was laid aside. SIXTY BURIED ALIVE The Most Horrible Mining Accident In Canada's History. Rescuers are Repeatedly Driven Back By Roaring Flames--Details of Horror Meagre. A special from Victoria, British Columbia, says: What is feared will prove one of the most horrible mine accidents in the history of the Dominion took place at the Union mines, owned by the Welling Colliery Company, of which James Dunsmuir, the premier of the province, is the principal shareholder. Newspaper correspondents hurried by steamers and tug boats to the scene. As near as can be gathered, the explosion took place about 11 o'clock in the forenoon in No. 6 shaft, situated in the village of Cumberland. There were sixty men in it when the explosion took place, and not one of them escaped. The explosion ignited the mine, wrecking the shaft from midway down to the bottom and filling it with a solid mass of rocks, earth and timbers. The first explosion was followed by several more, while a dense volume of smoke pouring from the vent holes indicated that fire, as well as gas, was doing destructive work below. Men of the morning shift in No. 5 shaft organized a rescue party. No. 5 and No. 6 are connected by a tunnel, and through this channel the attempt was made. They had not cut their way many yards through the debris when they encountered fire, which rendered the place untenable and obliged the party to desist. The message came back by telephone to the surface conveying the heart-breaking news to the relatives of the imprisoned men, whose urging was not necessary to induce the relief party to return to their apparently hopeless task. Overcome at last by smoke and gas, they reluctantly withdrew from No. 5 and commenced work on a long cut from No. 4, the only other means of reaching the men. Work on this was prosecuted with the greatest vigor until abatement of the fire in No. 5 enabled them to once more return there. From the head office of the Dunmuir company at Victoria a special train proceeded at 1:15 o'clock to Nanaimo. The last report of the inspector of mines pronounced the shaft as complying with regulations governing coal mines. MAURICE THOMPSON DEAD. Well Known Author Succubes to Grim Reaper After Long Illness. Maurice Thompson died at his home in Crawfordaville, Ind., Friday morning at 3 o'clock after a lingering illness. Mr. Thompson was born in Fairfield, Ind., September 9, 1844, but ayant his early life in the Georgia mountains, half way between Chattanooga and Atlanta, where his father was an extensive planner. He entered the confederate army in 1862 and did hard scout duty. After the war he became chief engineer of the L. C. and S.W. railroad, and while engaged in this work met Alice Lee, of Crawfordaville, whom he married. He then began the practice of law. In 1867 he explored Lake Okeechobee, Florida, listing its birds, animals and plants. From his Crawfordaville home Mr. Thompson sent forth the literary work, which was to win him distinction. TIGER KILLS KEEPER. Tragedy Occurs at Indianapolis Zoo Through a Mistake. A sickening tragedy occurred at the zoo in Indianapolis Friday morning. Albert Neilson, a keeper, 15 years old, entered the cage of a Bengal tiger by mistake and was attacked by the beast. A terrible struggle followed in which the keeper was torn in a hundred places. Redhod irons were applied to the bloodthirsty animal, but not until he was struck by seven pistol balls did he relase his hold on his victim. Neilson was finally dragged from the cage more dead than alive and was hurried to the city hospital, where he died as he was being carried in. The tiger was not fatally wounded. Neilson was in charge of the lion nubs, and it is supposed opened the tiger's cage by mistake. Charlotte May Have Dispensary A movement has been started in Charlotte, N. C., having for its object the establishment of a dispensary to take the place of the licensed liquor saloons, and the question will be decided by a white primary in about ten days. INSURGENT BAND ROUTED. A Manila special says: Colonel Marcus D. Cronin and eighty men of the Thirty-third regiment have routed a band of insurgents at Candon, South Ilocos. Captain Green, with fifty men, met a force of the enemy at Santa Maria. The insurgents, who were commanded by Tinio, had two cannon and were strongly entrenched behind stone walls on a steep mountain side. There was hard fighting for three hours. When their ammunition was exhausted the Americans retired for a short distance. Then Tinio abandoned his position retreated southward. News of another important surrender in the Philippines is contained in the following dispatch received at the war department from General Mac-Arthur: "MANILA.—Adjutant General, Washington: One hundred and twelve rifles and 1,500 rounds of ammunition surrendered at Haganay February 13th, mostly from supply secreted in contiguous swamps. The incident is important as indicating a great reaction favorable to the American interests in region of Bulacan heretofore one of the worst in Luzon. The result is accomplished exclusively by the long continued, intelligent and persistent efforts of officers of the Third United States infantry." According to mail advices from the Philippines, Captain Novico, the insurgent officer who commands the band which captured Lieutenant Gilmore and his party of the Yorktown and held them captive for man-months, has been sentenced to imprisonment for life, on the charge of having permitted one of Gilmore's party to be buried alive. The victim was a sailor named McDonald, who was a burden to the Filipinos because of his wounds. CARTER REMAINS PRISONER. Attempt to Secure His Release on Bond Falls Utterly. A special from Leavenworth, Kas., says: Captain Oberlin M. Carter, United States army, serving a sentence in the federal prison at Fort Leavenworth for defrauding the government on harbor contracts, has suffered another defeat in his attempt to secure his release. Judge Hook, in the United States district court Friday, refused to release the prisoner on bail and ordered that he be remanded to the penitentiary to await the action of the United States supreme court on the appeal in his habeas corpus case. Judge Hook held in substance that the judgment of the courtmartial was final unless set aside by the supreme court of the United States. There were nearly 300 people in the court room and along the corridors, and they manifested a great desire to get a look at the prisoner. This annoyed Carter and he tried to avoid facing the spectators. After a brief argument by his attorney, A. H. Atwood, who contended that the court had the power to admit the prisoner to bail and the reading of two affidavits of physicians regarding Carter's health, Judge Hook handed down his decision. The physicians offered affidavits to the effect that the prisoner is a sufferer from neurasthenia, and if confined for any length of time will suffer mental collapse and become insane. In his affidavit Carter said he wanted to be released and stand a civil trial at Atlanta, Ga. CONTRACT MAKES SLAYES. State of South Carolina Has Sensational Scandal on Tapis. A special from Spartanburg says: The state of South Carolina is confronted with a monumental scandal. The convict lease system has been used to cover up practical slavery, and Anderson county was the first to develop the fact. Judge Benet in a special charge to the grand jury at Anderson characterized the system of labor practiced on some of the farms of the most prominent men of Anderson county as a shameful practice and instructed the grand jury to investigate. He has called a special term of court for March 7th to have full report. ELECTION RIOT IN ST. LOUIS. Shower of Lead Prevents Fourth Ward Polls From Belng Opened. A St. Louis special says: More than 150 shots were fired; a sergeant of police and two negroes were wounded and a ballot box was stolen in the course of a riot about the second district polling place of the fourth ward early Monday evening. It was only after a riot call had brought forty policemen and riot guns to the scene that a semblance of order was restored. Even then the streets were filled with negroes and some white men, all of whom were armed, many of them intoxicated and looking for trouble. Not a ballot was cast Subscription: $1.25 Per Annum; 75s for Six Months, 50s for Three Months; Single Copies $6. In Advance. A QUESTION.

This is the recent decision of one of the prominent societies of the world, but the exact day has not yet been fixed upon, and while there are very few people who believe this prediction, there are thousands of others who not only believe, but know that Hostetler's Stomach Bitters is the best medicine to cure dyspepsia, indigestion, constipation, billiousness or liver and kidney troubles.

Never be satisfied with a settlement in which either one er yon bas abut the other out of her full confidence. ‘And do you, especially, remember this: that ifthe time ever comes when you turn from telling your mother all your thoughts, and heart, and hopes, because you fear she would not understand, or would prevent you from carrying ont your ideas—remember that there has al- ready, come ‘ the little rift within the inte?” CA MASONIC COLUMN. <A, Lodges must keep in mind the ‘aesegsment for the home. ‘The last payment will soon be due. | ‘The mazOns here were invited to lay the comnerstobe to the Chairty hospital which was done yesterday.

In many of our oldest Grand Lodges in the United States it is a custom to do so when occasion requires. In the Grand Lodge of Magsachusetta n few years since all the Grand Officers were thus chosen. We like the enstom, as it demon- strates the true spirit of Masonry, and that there is no rivalrs, no ill feeling, as is often dieplaycd in elections where some favorite is defeated after a bitter contest.—Wm.

Before entering, leave it ont side; don’t carry it into the Lodge-room Believe us Moses believed when told by the angel to ‘put olf thy shoe: from off thy feet for the place where- on thon standest is holy ground”— holy decause it was a spot where the highest attributes were present. Be. lieve that the Lodge-room is a plac: which the divine attributes of char- ity and brotherhood have hallowed, and carry not into it any baser pas- sions. Within a Lodge-toom, eapee- ially a Masonic Lodge-room, there should be love, peace. joy, benevo- lence, brotherly love ind all the beauties of fraternal aff. ction. Where these things prevail in a lodge there is prosperity.—Edward Michaelis. If ever there were a time when we needed to think of what we can have without money, it is now.

Mrs. Eliza Jordan, wife of Mr. C. G. Jordan, died suddenly on Saturday night at 12 o'clock, about forty minutes after giving birth to a fine baby. Mrs. Jordan was robust looking and no one thought that her end was so near. It came peaceably and she was conscious to the last. The announcement of her death was quite a shock to all who knew her. She was a quiet and modest lady. On account of this retiring disposition she was well liked by her acquaintances. Mrs. Jordan was thirty-six years of age, and was born at Byron, seventeen miles from Macon. She became a church member in early childhood, uniting with the Byron Congregational church. She was the daughter of Deacon and Mrs. Charles Wellons, who are the founders of the Congregational church at Byron. Miss Wellons was married to Mr. Jordan in 1881, and they removed to Savannah in 1882. In the summer of 1883, she was admitted into membership of the First Congregational church under the Rev. Dana Sherrel. For many years she was prominently identified with the Sunday school and church work. She was also a member of the Miesionary Aid Society, and at the time of her death its treasurer. The deceased leaves a faithful husband, five children, three boys and two girls, a father and mother, two sisters, six brothers, a grand mother, and many relatives and friends to mourn her loss. On Sunday afternoon services were held over the remains, conducted by Rev. John W. Whittaker. The remains were taken to Byron on Sunday night and the interment was made there. The funeral took place from the Byron church, and it was attended by a large concourse of people who came from every direction to pay the last tribute of respect. The services were conducted by Rev J. R. McLean, of Macon, and Rev H. T. Johnson. The bereaved family has the sympathy of their many friends. A Surprisal: Rev. M. W. White, of Macon, who has been in the city for the past two weeks assisting Rev. G. W. Griffin of First Bryan Baptist church in a revival, left for his home this week. Rev. White is held in high esteem by the members of this church. This was verified on Wednesday evening of last week, when a company of them, headed by Miss Bessie Foster, knocked at the door of the parsonage about 11:30 o'clock, for the purpose of surprising the Rev. White. Mrs. Griffin met the party at the door and they entered singing "The Lord will provide," while they deposited on the table various articles helpful for the sustenance of the body. Rev. Griffin requested a young man of the party to make a speech, which was responded to by the Rev. White, who thanked the donors and invoked God's blessings on them. A Stalworth Appointed. Capt. L. M. Pleasant was appointed last week as customs inspector by Col. Deveaux, collector of customs Capt. Pleasant is one our stalworth Republicans, and nothing is too big or good for him. Col Deveaux recognizing his faithful services to the party and his efficiency for the work unhesitatingly gave him the appointment. With the appointment of Capt. Pleasant, there are seven colored men that have secured positions since Col. Deveaux's appointment. Capt. Pleasant held this position before and is thoroughly conversent with its duties. the captain has also been appointed marshal from Georgia, for the great inaugural parade on the fourth of March. If the captain could only take his dapple grey along with him, he will be the cynosure of eyes down Pennsylvania Avenue. Died at a Ripe Age. Mrs. Charlotte Veidery after an illness for some time died at 1 o'clock on Thursday last at her late residence on Arnold street. She was about seventy six years of age and always lived in the city. She was an old member of the First Bryan Baptist Church. She was buried from her late home yesterday and the services were conducted by Rev. G. W. Griffin. She leaves grand children, among whom are Miss Charlotte Verdrey Mr. John D. Maxwell, Miss Sarah Maxwell, other relatives and friends. The family has the sympathy of friends. "Red Tag" Sale. Mr. A.

Kind Friends:—I guess you all have heard of the sad occurrence which chanced to fall upon Henry Brooks on Saturday morning between the hours of 1 and 3 o'clock, while returning home from a dance given at West Broad and Margaret streets. It is said that he shot a colored man and a few moments later it is said that he shot Policeman J. B. Fender, which there was no witness to the shooting of the policeman; but as Brooks was found a block away, and as he was accused of shooting the colored man (Burns) they also charged him with the killing of the policeman. After the coroner had selected his jurors and all possible witnesses and testimony, Brooks was held circumstantial for the killing of Policeman Fender. And as we all have heard and read the statement of Mr. M. Patterson, that he saw Brooks shoot the policeman, we have our opinion of his statement, and we will have to raise a good sum of money to defend Brooks, and do humbly ask his sympathizers to help him. Any amount will be gladly received. Those wishing to help can make their contributions to Joe S. Davis, relative to the accused, 509 West Charlton street; Mr. John Brown, the head waiter at Hicks' restaurant; Mr. Wm. Reid, tailor, West Broad, near President street. Yours, J. S. Davis. Homes on Easy Terms. We have admonished our people to secure for themselves homes, and to lose no opportunity whatever, in doing so, matters not how humble that home may be. An excellent chance is now given for a few with small means to secure a home, excellently, located, at a price that is unheard of, and with such a term that is in reach of any that earns the smallest possible wages. Messers J. E. Fulton & Sons have charge of improved property, that is well located, and near a section of the city, that will be the most popular and valuable in years to come. These gentlemen are among our best white citizens, whose integrity the fullest confidence can be placed. In all of their dealings, they are strictly upright and will make no offer to deceive. They have a few of these lots with well constructed three room houses that they will dispose of from two hundred and twenty-five ($225) dollars, to three hundred ($300) dollars. This is an inducement that was never before made. Lots in this section-cost as much, or nearly so, as they offer both lots and houses. Many would think that on account of these very low prices that they would require cash, but not so; they are anxious to sell these homes to the better class of our people who are anxions to better their condition, and for that reason, real easy payments will be allowed. To the right parties they will accept ten dollars as first payment and five dollars per month, with interest Such an offer has never before been made, and advantage of the same should be immediately taken. The map of the location can be seen at their office in the Provident Building. There are only a few of these and for that reason if any of our readers want one of them they will have to call early.

PLANS A PUNITIVE EXPEDITION The United States Disapproves of Action and Will Enter an Emphatic Protest. A Washington special says: The United States government is facing a serious crisis in China, owing to the announcement of the purpose of Field Marshal Count Waldserse to begin another offensive campaign. General Chaffee has been invited to join in the expedition, which is to be mobilized on a larger scale than anything attempted in China since the original march to Pekin. General Chaffee so informed the war department Monday and the officials of the state department have been advised of the situation. This German movement is viewed with absolute dismay in Washington, for it is feared that it requires an immediate decision by the United States government upon its whole line of policy toward the Chinese question. General Chaffee will be told that he is not to participate in this campaign. He has been keeping the American forces in Pekin, ever since the city was pacified, simply as a legation guard, and the German government is fully aware that the United States government purposely deprived the American contingent in China of its offensive military character and withdrew it from the control of Count von Walderssee in order to hasten peace negotiations and prevent, so far as it could, the continuance of military movements against the Chinese, which were at once unnecessary and baneful in their effect upon the peace movement. So our government, not having changed its policy, cannot do otherwise than cause General Chaffee to refrain from any participation in hostile military movements, so long as the present peaceful conditions continue. PARTITION GERMANY'S AIM. The reopening of war in China and the partition of that empire are believed to be the salient features of the policy of Germany which has directed the big expedition which Count von Waldersee has under way and to join which the American troops have been invited. The sincerity of Germany's protestations that she is working in the interest of peace is seriously doubted by President McKinley and the officials of the state and war departments. The government will do everything in its power to prevent the ends desired by Germany and to dissuade the other governments from embarking upon the war which Count von Waldersee seems determined to provoke. Just how far this government will go toward that end is not clear, but, of course, it will not go to war with Germany or with anybody else in the interest of the Chinese. Miniater Conger has, however, been instructed to use his best endeavors to dissuade the representatives of the other powers at Pekin from playing into the hands of Germany, and representations in some form will be made to the other governments direct. It is probable that these, will take the shape of a remonstrance against the proposed expedition as being an act of bad faith not only to China, with whom peace negotiations are being conducted, but with the other powers which are working honestly toward peace. This will be put in more diplomatic language than the word "remonstrance" would-indicate, but it will amount to a remonstrance or protest. Great indignation is felt by President McKinley and his close advisers over this apparent breach of faith by the German field marshal. news from Pekin indicating old Marshal's intention the following cable ate of Feb. 17: Count Von Walder- generals under his g them to have all ps ready in two on lasting eighty al Chaffee and unch command- ing for their g desire to spare.
