NEGRO PICKERS DRIVEN AWAY.
Not Allowed to Work in Lee
County, Florida.
HELD AS A WHITE MANS COUNTY
A Move to Secure Cheap
Orange Groves.
Two Hundred Negroes Sent There to Pick
Oranges Driven Away by White Mon
Haif-starved and Terrorized-Ihe Expia-
nation Given by Prominent Resident,

Tampa, Fla, Dec. TO- Nearly 200
halfstaryed and terrorized negroes were
brought here on the steamer Lawrence
from Lee county. The negroes were
hired hero last week TO 90 to Lee county
to pick oranges. When they reached
Fort Meyers they were ordered to leave,
being told they could not work there.
Tho negroes showed resistance, when
armed whites surrounded them and
marched tnem TO the wharf, whore they
were kept under guard for two days
until the steamer returned. The negroes
were given nothing to eat and feared
they would be massacred, as the guards
kept up constant fusilade at night.
Two Of the negroes became so terror
lied that they leaped overheard, and il
is thought were drowned. Several
others tried to run, but were shot. The
negroes say the bodies of those shot
were thrown into tho river. Tho negroes
brought back circulars issued by citi-
zens stating
Lee is a white mans county and
negroes must stay away, under pain of
death. !"
A. V. Lane, prominent resident of
Fort Meyers, confirms the story of the
outrage told by tho negroes. He says
white men have been visiting tho
camps of the orange. pickers and firing
into them until nearly all the negroes
have fed the county. He says many
negroes have undoubtedly been killed.
Orange trees in Lee county were un-
injured by the frost last winter, and
Lane says conspiracy has been formed
to prevent fruit being picked and thus
force the owners, who live in other
States, to abandon the groves Then
the conspirators hope to get the groves
for song.
