JUDGE LYNCH LEFT BEHIND.
Governor GOrdOn's Precautions 4

Insure Polk NewtOR's Safety.
Some time ago it will be remem-
bered Henry Pope was taken from
the Jail at Summerville and lynch-
ed before the officers of the law
bearing the governors commuta-
ton Of sentence could arrive and
convey him to the peuitentiary.
Tuesday Polk Newton reached
Atlanta from Calhoun county on
his way to Dade coal mines before
n single newspaper in Georgia was
aware fhat Che executive had de-
termined to alter his sentence from
hanging to life imprisonment.
The careful silence of the gov.
ernor and other officials. was the
outcome it seems, of the Henry
Pope affair The law had been inN
terfered with in one instance by
mob violence, and the authorities
Diet ,rmined that it should not be a
second time. When Newton was
respited serious riot was precipi>
tated at Morgan, and there was
reason to believe that as soon as it
became known that commutation
of sentence had been ordered in his
case, similar Outbre,k k, and per-
haps lynchirg, might be looked
for.
The matter was very judiciously
worked. On Saturday last the
governor made out the commutat
ton papers, and they were handed
to Col. Towers, principal keeper of
the penitentiary, Col. Towers
locked them in the drawer of his
desk, and after instructing the
guard who conveys prisoners to the
convict camps, and not one soul
was wiser until armed with the of
fetal documents, the guard pre-
scented himself to the sheriff of
Calhoun county. Even then such
secrecy was preserved that the
communication did not leak out till
night, when the prisoner was lands
ed in the station house in Atlanta
under~tle noses oil the enterprising
reporters.
So far as could be learned it
would no doubt have served the
ends of justice but lily bad New
ton been allowed to pay the death
penalty. 1t appears to be pre- ty
clearly established that the man
he killed followed him up persist.
entity with a knife intending to
kill him, and that he tried to a, old
the dific ulty.
Judge Query, who tried the
case, and the solicitor who prose-
cuted 1t, both insisted that he
ought not to hang, and it seems
that manslaughter was the harshest
verdict that should under the cir
cumstance have been pronounced
in the case.

A railroad man, who was in the

negroes were corralled like mules
in North Carolina and agents went
among them and picked out so
many families like so many mules.
At one time, .he says, there we're
three thousand in Goldsboro, N.
g., waiting for transportation.
At first the North Carolina
farmers were glad to have the ne>
aroes 20, and the governor said let
them go, but as the contracting

interiered a good deal with farmers

"Peg-Leg Williams has an order

That is the wav they talk about
regro emigration on Wall street.
Mr. Williams, the enterpris.ng
ticket ugent, wtoi known among
his fellows as ''Peg>leg." is the
kihg bee in the business, and it is
said at his office that he forwarded
200 negro emigrants to Arkan
sas and Texas this winter.
John, the mulatto hustler who
is employed by Mr.. Williams,
gives a splendid account of the.
business.
"How do you get them up?s he
was asked.
"You just have to hustle around
aud get them. The people in
North Carolina ma lie poor crops
last year, and they had nothing.
The laud owners could not hire all
of them and when they did hire
them it was at very small wages.
The people Just made resolution
to come to Mississippi, Arkansas
aud Louisiana. The farmers sent
orders here far SO many families,
AID we filled them. The negroes
agreed to work long enough to pay
their transports ton, and the farm
ers agreed to furnish land, stock,
houses, seed, everything, and give
them half they make. They can
make a bale, bale and half, and
sometimes two bales, on that black
land. Some families paid their
transportation aud had $3.50 to
5000 clear at the end of the first
year. That's a black mans para>
disc. They can buy land in the
Mississippi delta country for five
and Elk dollars IN acre, ami in
Arkansas they can buy very good
land for two or three collars.

Colored people make lots of money
down there, and they get waste'ul.
They throw away enough to make
them rich. They travel on the
railroads so much that the trains
are crowded with them every day.
They earn in ditching as much as
a dollar and q half day and
farm labor gets a dollar and dnl.

"The land in Mississippi is held
by big planters. They don't think
much of a man unless he has 500
acres. Plantations 60 up into the
thousands. Mr.. Richardson's
plantation is eIev' miles across
and railroad runs through it
just to do the business of the plans

plantation in the world. E-ery
three miles he has a nice church
and school house, with a villoge
around them. The houses are all
white, painted and whitewashed,
and everything is as pretty as can
can be, It's beautiful country
and it isn't any trouble for a man
to make living there if. he'll
work. If a planter has plenty of
land and can get labor he's sure to
get rich.
"There is a very good feeling
between the white and colored peo-
pie down there. | used to hear of

it's not so now. They need labor

An investigation was made by Coroner
Nix yesterday concerning the death of the
Yale Scientific Junior, Stouahton F. Ritzin-
ger, which occurred at the Pleasant street
crossing in Fair Haven. e. e. Hall, the
engineer, e. B. Kenyon, the conductor,
Elmer Knapp, the fireman Of the train, F.
Mclaughlin and John Barney, section men,
and Detective John Leete, were all examined
and gave their stories of the accident. The
engineer, fireman and conductor said that the
train had begun to slow down to cross the
Quinnipiao bridge and that the brakes were
put on quite little distance before the
crossing whore the accident occurred was
reached.
Coroner Mix ascertained that Walker had
urged Ritzipger not to attempt to cross be-
fore the engine. The coroner thinks the
crossing very dangerous one, but does not
attach any blame to the railroad company.
