This Is Alarming.

To the Editor of The Times:
Your editorial, violence in Mississippi is n
tirade which does injustice to the people of Mis-
sissippi, and is no credit to you. You say:
There are courts in Mississippi which fully
competent 10 inflict a proper penalty for any
ofense from assault to murder, but the
proud Caucasian, anger is up he will listen
to no talk about trusting to the agencies OF the
law"
Don't you know that courts are racial arbitFa
tion mcots that are not applicable TO decide
disputes between members of different races Look
at Michigan. Are there not courts there? Are
not the Indians said to be civilized? Have the
Michiganders succeeded in arresting a few Iu-
dians and bringing them before the white mans
court without bloodshed any more successfully
than the Mississippians? As the white people on
the frontier have constantly to carry their guns
to keep the red man from taking them unawares
and assassinating them, ii Is necessary in a
negro community like Mississippi fer the whites
to have n gun and be ready to use it, il the
semblanee OF civilization is TO be maintained II
children reared in atmosphere OF violence
and without being taught respect for (negro)
authority" whose fault is it?
Shall the whites surrender and give up the
country to the black savages and their vicious
white allies? Your TRADE against the temper and
carscter OF the white people in tine negro dis
tricts applies to the whites in contact with the
Indians well; it is unmerited, and il betrays IN
ignorance and lack of sympathy with the agencies
OF civilization in the dark savage districts, which
is no credit TO you. Sir, our courts are agencies
for settling disputes between Caucasians, and not
to adjudicate matters between them and either
the Indian negro. Neither in race conflict
will abide by them There is arbiter but force.

4 Couple, Parted by Parents, Find
n Way to Wed.

Hampstead, L. l., Oct 27-Church folk

morning when it was learned that Miss
Caroline Pearson, the pretty nineteen
year-old daughter of James E. Pearson.
a prominent lawyer Of Brooklyn, had
eloped with Ralph Hutcheson, son of
Aubrey G. Hutcheson, a New York busi-
ness man. Both were well known in
social circles here and in Brooklyn.
Not even the most intimate friends of
the young couple were aware of the
elopement until this morning, when
message was received by Miss Pearson's
family giving the information that she
had been married in Brooklyn on Tues
day afternoon.
Mr.. Hutcheson and Miss Pearson were
formally engaged to be married until
few weeks ago, when, it is understood,
the engagement was broken by their par
ents, because Mr.. Hutcheson had bought
a large amount of jewelry for his fiancee
which, 1t is understood, he had charged
to his fathers account. 1t is reported
that when Mr.. Pearson learned of this he
ordered the young man from the house.
However regardless of this both met fire.

years Her father was formerly superin-
tendent of the Sunday-school and director
of the choir in which his daughter sang.
She is a pronounced brunette.

STORM STOPS CHICAGO CLOCKS.
Great Damage on the Windy City's
Water Front.

Chicago, Oct 27.-Chicago's lake front
is battered In spots from the Indiana
State line to Evanston and beyond as the
result of the storm which found center
here during the last two days. While no
lives have been reported lost, the severity
of the blow-forty-eisht miles an hour al
it's worst-was the greatest since the gale
of 1894. when the shore was strewn with
wrecks and when many sailors perished.
The objects that suffered most were
the lake shore promenades and walls,
where huge rocks and flags were battered
like chips by the waves.
An Indication of the fury of the storm is
shown by the fact that the official clock
in the Photographic office in the Masonic
Temple was stopped by the vibration of
the building. The hands pointed TO 6:5l:49
when the pendulum ceased to swing.
Lieut.. Wilson says all clocks on the up
per floors of high office buildings were
similarly affected.

ENLIST FOR FULL TERMS.
New Regulations for Recruiting in
the ReguInr Army.

the ReguInr Army.
Soldiers who enlist in the regular army
in the future will not be governed by the
conditions which prevailed during the war
with Spain. In May last Maj Gen. Miles
issued an order, with the approval of the
Secretary of War, directing that all men
enlisted or re-enlisted In the regular army
during the war would be granted their
discharges If desired at the close of hos
tilities upon their individual applications.
Gen. Miles yesterday issued an order
resembling the one issued last May, and
directing that its provisions shall not
henceforth govern enlistments in the reg
ular army Under this order all enlist
ments in the regular army will be for
period of three years.
An order has also been issued by Col.
Thomas Ward, the acting adjutant gen.
eral. relative TO persons who enlist in the
regular army from the volunteer service.
According to the provisions of this order
all such soldiers begin a new enlistment
in the regular army for a term of three
years. Their clothing allowance likewise
begins at the first years rates. The age
limitations of thirty-five years for original
enlistments in the regular army does not
apply in such cases.
The principal advantages will accrue to
those who re-enlist in the regular army
within three months from their date OF
discharge from the volunteer army. In
their cases the time actually served in the
volunteer service is added to the time
served in the regular army in computing
the soldiers service pay from time to
time.

SPAIN QUICK TO OBEY.
She Ceases to Remove Property
From Cuba.

The Spanish government has been no.
titled through the French embassy here
that the sale or shipment to Spain of ord
nance supplies. machinery, small gum
boats and other property in Cuba must be
stopped at once. or the money value of the
property so disposed of would be collected
from Spain before the treaty of peace is
signed. This notification was prepared
and forwarded by direction of the Presi-
dent.
Advices received at the War Depart
rnent state that this sharp reminder to Sa-
gasta's government has been promptly
needed, and the sales and removals have
been stopped. The American Commission
ers at Havana have also called upon the
Spanish authorities there for an official
statement as to whether or not there are
any torpedoes or mines remaining in Ha-
vana harbor. This action was taken so
the responsibility can be liked should any
American vessel meet the fate of the
Maine when the war ships and transports

Grower Was Stealing "a Ride on a
Freight Out of Philadelphia.

Trenton, n. j., Oct. PA gang of seven
hobo highwaymen shot and killed Will
liam Crowen, of Philadelphia last night
on the outskirts of this city. Grower was
stealing a ride on a westbound freight

CABINET MEETING TODAY.
Important Matters Await the Action
Of the Pres;deut a


The Pennsylvania special" with the
President and party on board will reach
the Sixth Street station at O'Clock this
morning. according to the program ar
ranged last night. Should Mr. Mckinley
be asleep when the train reaches the city.
he will not be awakened. 1t may. there
fore, be one or two hours later before lie
reaches the White House
Among those in the Presidential party
are Mrs. Mckinley, Attorney General
Griggs, Secretary Aiger, Mrs. Alger, So
licitor General Richards. Miss Long, Sec
retary Wilson. Miss Wilson, Secretary
Porter. and Mr. Cortelyou, the assistant
secretary to the~President.
An important meeting of the Cabinet
will be held at II o'clock this forenoon.
when action will be taken supplemental
to the virtual ultimatun sent to Spain
through the American Peace Commission
ers at Paris on Tuesday.
A cable report is expected from Com
missioner Day this morning, giving full
at Paris. This report will be the basis of
action at the Cabinet meeting.
1t is known that the Spanish Govern
ment has assumed an attitude of pleading
since the firm stand taken by this Gov
ernment against any further quibbiing or
procrastination. 1t is announced, too.
that the Cuban debt has been eliminated
as a disturbing factor from the peace pro-
ceedings by the final declaration of the
American Commissioners that the United
States will not assume the burden.
1t was learned at the State Department
yesterday afternoon that the Cabinet Will
determine today that Cuba and Porto Rico
are settled questions and the American
Commissioners will be directed to the i'm
mediate consideration of the Philippines.
Instructions to this effect will, II is said,
be sent to Paris today.
Another matter for Cabinet considera-
tion is the final selection of camp sites for
the troops which are TO garrison Cuba. 1t
is probable that after the review of peace
negotiations the Cabinet VIII consider the
report of the Hecker board.
1t is understood that the soldiers to be
sent to Cuba will not be landed at any
particular port, but each regiment or bat
talon will be put ashore at the most con-
venient place.
The Carter cOurt-martial case. which
has been hanging fire so long, Is also in
the hands OF the President for final ac-
ton, but whether he will find time to dis
pose of the matter before election day is
question.
