Negroes Under the Protection
of the Sheriff.
Determined Efforts TO Lynch Them
Were Frustrated.
Prisoners Given Up When IL Was
Evident Officers Would Fire.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, July 31.---Further
details of the race riot at Brookside state
that in the first battle between the whites
and blacks last night two negroes were
shot dead. The battle wsged tiercely for
nearly two hours. Bggars and his men
were sheltered by the dense foliage and
the white miners were forced TO retreat.
They gathered reinforcements and again
renewed the attack. Two more negroes
fell dead under the heavy fire. The ranks
of the whites were thinned by several
being wounded.
While the miners were caring for their
wounded the negroes struck out Tor the
deeper woods. Another posse was formed
and headed by determined and stalwart
miners, the pursuit was again resumed.
Word was telegraphed TO this city Tor
help, and Sheriff Morrow, with % OF his
men, left for the scene.
At midnight they came up 10 the rioters.
The whites had captured several OF the
negroes, but Biggars was not among
them.
rope had been carried along for one
purpose. That purpose was Just being
carried into effect when the sheriff arrived.
The captured negroes were bound hand
and foot, and the dangling moose from
the limb of a tree overhead told OF their
impending fate
Sheriff Morrow demanded the surren-
der of the prisoners. His request was re-
ceived in sullen silence Another demand
was met with fiat refusal from the
leader OF the white miners. The sherin
then threatened to open fire on both par
ties unless the prisoners were given up at
once. Not until his men presented their
arms did the spokesman of the white
miners deliver up mis- prisoners.
They were brought back to the camp,
where another demonstration was made
by those miners who had not joined in
the pursuit. They made a desperate at
tempt to take the negroes from Sheriff
Morrow, but the determined stand of his
men deferred them from using force The
camp Is in a state of intense excitement
and the negroes will be brought here to
prevent lynching.
The bodies of the four negroes were
brought to the camp and laid on rough
boards. The bodies of the two deputy
sheriffs were taken to their homes.
Over dozen men received wounds dur
ing the battle, and were brought TO the
camp for surgical treatment. II is not
thought that any are fatally injured.
Further trouble is feared.

NEW NICHOLSON WORKS.
Big File Company Has Acquired Boa
YER Falls Plant.
Home Concern Now Controls More
Tnan Half the Country's Output.

Capitalists friendly to the Nicholson
File Company OF this city have obtained
control OF the Greart Western File Com
pany of Beaver Falls, Pa. These works
are in first class condition in every respect
and are capable OF producing a thousand
dozen of files per day, nearly one-third
of that produced by the works already
controlled by the Nicholson Company.
BY this move the Nicholson File COM
pany will be enabled TO meet in its own
field a competition which has recently
developed in the est. The Beaver Falls
Works are equipped for natural gas. This
addition -te-tA Nicholson works, with
the Pawtucket works, will put them in a
position to control more than half the
output of files produced in this country.
1t will he interesting TO our readers to
know, what is not generally understood
in this community, that the Nicholson
File Company, before this last addition,
were the largest manufacturers of files in
the world. They already have three fac
tories, the Nicholson, Standard and
Nicholson X. f., the latter, large fac
tory for the production OF jewelers.,
watchmakers', ,manicures', and other small
files; and they also own and operate the
American File factory at Pawtucket. The
absolute necessities of their trade COM
pt-ffcti them to have additional facilities,
which are now supplied by securing con-
troll of the Great Western File Works at
Beaver Falls which, next to the Nichol-
son, were the largest producers of files in
this country.
The deal has been engineered as quietly
as il has been successfully.
