carried of quickly after the light oc-
CURED.
This morning mass meeting OF strik-
ing miners was held on the creek near
Pratt's Mines, and il was decided that the
law be taken into their own hands. and
that they would kill or be killed. About
4:30, the time when the employees in the
mines quit work and came out of the
mines mob was secreted in the woods
near by.
As the negroes would come out one by
one q shot would be sent at them and they
would drop to the ground. either fatally
wounded or dead. After the third negro
had fallen, the deputies opened fire at the
mob and fierce battle took place. Conn
mander Pierce, of the deputies, fell to the
ground A Winchester ball had
pierced his body just above tho
heart. Almost at the same instant one
of the strikers was seen to fall. but he
arose again to. his knee, and. taking aim
with his Winchester. fired four times at
the deputies. The deputies kept reload
ing their guns and firing. and the mob
began TO dispense. The deputies made a
tour around the wound striker, who was
still firing, and after time they sue
ceeded in silencing his gun. He proved TO
be Frenchman.
Another section of the mob made an
attack on a train which was carrying the
negroes from mine No. TO their
homes. There were several guards
on the engine and the attack was
answered. The first shot from the
strikers went through the cab window
of the engine. and just missed
killing the engineer and Superintendent
Moore. kilograms for help were sent TO
the town in haste, and Sheriff Morrow
summoned twenty-five deputies. Gov.
Jones, who is still IN the city. has sum-
moned the Birmingham battalion of state
troops.
