WHITE CAPS AT KENNEDY
Their Third Visit Proved a Most
 Foul Murder.
INNOCENT MAN SHOT DEAD
While Asleep in Bed-cOrouer Making Thor ough Investigation Another Crime Almost
 as DastardIy Being Investigated.

Kennedy Ala, May 31.-(sp ecial.)- Sunday morning about 2 o'clock Ken nedy was made the third visit within the last sixty days by lawless gang of Whitecappers.
 The first two visits resulted in tn whip ping of two negro women, viz: Rose Thomas and Nora Keesly, but the third vi:it resulted in the killing of a nsgro manned Andrew Hayden. who came to Kennedy on Saturday last from. Fays tte, Ala. on a visit to relatives.
 From what can be learned, the negro Hayden was a quiet, peaceable, inoffen- slve Eegro, and 1t is supposed that the Whitecappers made mistake in the.r negro, for when they forced their s1- trance into the house of West Cooper, oise of Dr. W. H. Kennedy's .aHorers,, who liVSd in an outhouSe on the premises or pr Kennedy, and whom tha negro Hay den was visiting, thsy called for John Bonner, the eonLin-law of West Cooper, and when toldit Bonner was rot there they proceeded to search the house and found the negro Haydsn and Henry Me Ciure (alSo from Fayet,e) in sh d room asleep. They shot Hayden just beh nd the right car whi.a in bed and then drag ged him out of the sh-d room through the front room. out of the front dcor inso the street, and shot him again just over the heart leaving him dead in the yard of the house.
 Last Thursday night thsy caEed at the house eff John BonTlcr, but failed to find him, and to1i his wife their inten'tio ns. It is claimed that Bonner is wanted for leaving a Mir. Will Mccullough after con- tracting for the year and becoming in- vclved in debt to MT Mccullough.
 A coron;rs inquest was herd here this morning, which was conducted secretly for the protection of the witnesses and also to e@nble the authorities to work more eff;ctually in endeavoring to eXter- minate the existing evil in OUT cem7 mun.'ty.

Affairs Reach the Drifting Stage-Move-
 nlemts of Notabes.
 London, June 1.-Eas.ern affairs ap- pear to have reached the drifting staga. The exact position as to the armist e negotiations is not yet clear. Evident- ly it is the object of Turkey to cre1te de- lays and to discover any latent weakness in the European concert.
 During the councils of the ministers at the Yi1diz Kiosk the peace cord tions have certainly been discussed, but all mention of Thessaly Is studiousay avo-d- ed. Thsi assumption seems to be that Thesslaly belongs to Turkey by conqus st and that there is nothing more to be said on the subect. The powers will have to show a united and very energetic front before the sultan will recede from h s pc sLtion In the meantime, in crdsr to re- move the impression that he rejects all the peace proposals, Greece has sent an- other ncIte to her representatives abroad repeating that she is prepared t1 acqui- esce in the decislor of the powers. but that the payment of a large indemnity is impossible.
 Queen Q,ga and the Princess Soph' a left Athens by the royal yacht en route for the camp of the crown prince, to par ticipate in the celebration of the ami ve,rsary of his name day. It is tipp q in some quarters that the crown pIirca VIII sail shortly for London.
 Edhefh Pa.s(1a. having sent the aid-de- camp, whom the sultan apo nted to watch him back to Constantinople undrr guard as spy. the oflica. was forthwith promoted by the sultan.
 A dispatch to the Times from, Con- stantirOple says there is strong reason for believing that Bulgaria is exerting an influence to have the sultan transform Macedonia into on autonom2us province under ah imperial prince.
