Special Dispatch to The Appeal
COLUMBUS, Miss, Dec. l7.--Early this
morning several gentlemen reached this
city from Artesia, bringing news OF q
wholesale slaughter of Constable's posse
near Wahalak, small station on the Mo-
bile q Ohio Railroad, near Macon, Miss.
On Friday last negro and white boy
got into fight and the white boys father
attempted to separate them, when he was
set upon by the negro boy and his father
and terribly beaten. Yesterday the white
man swore out a warrant for the negro
and Constable Seth Cable went to
the negro's house to execute 1t, where
he was attacked by n number OF negroes
and also beaten. He then summoned
a posse Of twelve men, and yesterday
evening went TO arrest the negroes. The
posse was fired upon from ambush and
five killed outright and six wounded more
or less seriously. The news spread rap
idly and the negroes were strongly re-
inforced. Wahalak telegraphed along
the line for help, and Meridian responded
with about seventy.fve well armed men.
They were joined by other men at every
station. and, reaching Wahalak. marched
Immediately TO the scene Of bloodshed.
The negroes were barricaded, and refused
to surrender or give up the dead whites. At
noon the forces were supposed to be about
equal and what the result is no one here
knows. This afternoon news was received
that the belligerent negroes had retreated
to the swamps and were stubborn, while
the non-combatant negroes were fleeing 10
the woods in terror. Capt Mcdaniel. OF
the Columbus Hnemen, telegraphed the
Sheriff OF kemper County that his men
were ready II he should ask the Governor
for military assistance. The telegram was
not delivered, as the Sheriff was not in
town.
There is considerable excitement here,
and news Of developments is awaited with
the utmost anxiety. The following is
