Afraid Of Kuklux.

WHY THE MISSISSIPPI INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE
HAD TO GET NEW MESSENGER.
good deal Of fun has been created among the
Senate ofhcials, and even the grave Senators have
been tickled at the expense OF one OF the messen-
gers He halls from New England and was Sc
lected as messenger to accompany the Hoar sub
committee on its Mississippi investigating tour.
The messenger had conceived the idea that he
might not be entirely safe In going south on mis-
sion OF investigation. In confidential way he
went to several republicans from Missis-
sippi who hold public positions here and
asked whether he would be In danger
at the hands OF the kuklux. This mani
festaion OF fear gave one or two OF the persons to
to act They painted the horrible torture that ku-
klux 1nfict, and, with the appearance OF great
friendship advised the messenger not to think OF
running such risk. Other southern republicans
were let into the fun, and numbers of them sought
the messenger and advised him OF the danger he
would risk In going south with an investigating
committee. The poor fellow was overwhelmed with
such advice from sources he regarded as not only
Well Informed, but friendly to him Gen F1tzger-
aid, OF VckSburg. one OF the most prominent repub-
hcans OF Mississippi, being In the city, got
wind OF the joke, and, as he loves fun, he sought
the messenger and pictured the horrors of his prob
able fate in that state. When Senator Frye sent
for the messenger TO give him instructions he soon
discovered that the man was terribly frightened,
and upon inquiry learned OF the 'sjOb" that had
ary danger by getting sick at the time he was
needed and another was substituted. Since the de-
parture OF the sub committee the whole story Is
