What the C"lorrd People of Green.
TiHNi C"nniy Say.
GrcenirOOd Inder.


IN" col0rcd people of the town of
Bradley, Greenwood county, beg Il little
spa to put on record their utter con
dcmnatIOn of some of their race ut
Phoenix on november sth. They de-
sire to make this statement as To their
feelings and Intentions:
While we dtplorc the reckless igno-
rance of those of our race in the Ph0e-
nix affair. we ut the same time dislike
to see the entire race araigncd in the
public prints as Il lawlcss people.
We invcigh against lawlcssDcss, by
whomscevcr committed. We are en-
dcavoring to foster the goml feeling
between the races. W. have strivcn
for this end in the past, and shall con-
Time this course in the future
We can but deprecatc the folly and
ignorance of those who blindly follow
the lead of dcmagogues, who would
hurl them into turmoil and strife to
carry their own infamous purpOse-and
/ then abandon them to their fate.
All good citizens, both white and
oolored, deplore the sad affair ut Phoe-
| nix.
We are sorry that some of the white
Republican leaders did not see the
mistakes OF their relatives 80 years
ago, or even one month before the last
election. Probably there would have
been fewer widows and fatherless
children thrown out upon the charity
of this hard world.
Ii has been said that one white man
can easily lead one hundred negroes
his way, while with great difficulty /,
c"lored man may draw ten after him.
III the white man has this great in
fincncc over the negro he should Use
that influence in leading the negro to
peace and prosperity.
The cOlOrcd people have gotten moth
ing Tor following these dcmngogic no
lilicians but widows, orphans and con J.
tempt. while the dcmagosucs got the
offices.
We have sworn our eternal "NO" to
support politicians whose greedy end
IS money and office. The negro should
ny this time see that their votes have
only been used as catslmws to pull po-
litical pindcrs ont of the fire for these.
dtniaSOgues to crack There are hun
ttrcds who have not bowed their knees
to Baal. Let others say and do what
they will or may, we and our house
will serve the Lord.
We are going to economist, get
homes, get education.

ANOTHER JOINT SESSION
OF THE AMERICAN AND SPANISH
PEACE COMMISSIONS.
The Dons Trying to Evade the Terms
of the ProtocoI-CensOrship Re-
Established in Spain.

PARIS, Oct. 14-The American and Span
ish peace commissioners held a lengthy joint
session to-day. The American reply to the
Spanish presentation of Tuesday was SUBJ
mitted and read An oral discussion fol-
lowed, occupying the time until about ten
minutes past 6, when the commissions adj
journed until Monday next. 1t is believed
that the Spanards submitted their con-
struction Of the protocol that it was just
to consider Spain having equities fairly
dischargeable by the American assumption
OF Cuban obligations 1t is not unlikely
that the Americans voiced the conviction
that fair equities to the United States in
war expense were incurred by the United
States, and possibly, though not positively,
the Americans may schedule the value of
the battle ship Maine as among the expen-
ditures possible of classification against the
so-caLled Cuban debt. However it may be
considered certain that the commissions
nave arrived at point in the negotiations
from which henceforth sessions will be oc-
cupied by oral discussions as well as by
Wi4ttrn presentations OF propositions. The
work is now thoroughly entered upon,
though it is not likely that any segment has
yet been polished and finished for q place
in the final treaty. The Philippine question
has not yet been entered upon.
The Spanish ambassador, Senior Leon y
Castillo, will give a breakfast in honor of
the Spanish commission on Saturday and
the United States ambassador Gen. Horace
Porter will give breakfast on Tuesday,
at which M. Cambon. the former French
ambassador at Washington, Gen. Wesley
Merritt and Commander Bradford will be
present.
Commander Bradford of the United States
navy, who has arrived here from Washing
ton, was examined this morning by the
members of the United States peace COM
mission relative to the conditions prevailing
and the main features of interest in the
Philippine islands. with which the COM
mander is well acquainted.

mittee appointed by Decatur county Re-
publicans to confer with a committee of
three from Rush county relative to the
judicial muddle returned this morning from
Rushville, where they had been in session
for two days without coming to any salts

by Decatur county were rejected by Rush
county and all propositions to arbitrate
were also rejected. The delegates of De-
catur county, composing the judicial con-
Vention which met at Rushville in May,
Fave with one exception. signed a protest
against the placing of the names of the
judge and prosecutor nominated by the
Rush county convention on the ticket. on
the grounds that the nomination was not
made at convention in which both coun-
ties participated, and was not made by a
majority of the delegates composing the
two counties Four years ago both coun-
ties had an equal number of votes Decatur
county presented the name of the late
John ID. Miller and Rush the name of Judge
Henley, now of the Appellate BENCH and
after SlS ballots had been taken Miller re-
ceived the nomination by Rush delegate
voting for him. In the recent convention

diately organized and nominated Cambren

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE peace COM
missioners at Paris are still dealing with
propositions relating to Cuba. but have not
yet taken up the subject of the future Of
the Philippines. From an insIstence OH the
strictest construction of the articles or the
protocol the Spanish commissioners have
swung to the opposite extreme and are now
looking for amelioration of conditions there
in laid down, on the ground that the agree
ment was hastily drawn and under great
pressure. There is an evident wish on their
part TO associate Cuba and the Philippines
in their final disposition, which may ex-
plain the last application of the Spanish
the time allowed for the evacuation of
Cuba. This application will be duly con-
sidered. but nevertheless our government
will insist that the administration of Cuba
be relinquished by the Spanish officials on

all been embarked for their return to Spain

man, which will be used against him in
case he undertakes to dispose of sparrows
heads in Michigan. The bird killer frankly
told how he operated. He would not adj
NIT, however, that he himself disposed of
the birds to the Michigan authorities. but
said that he killed and collected them for
South Bend man. The collector must
swear the birds were killed in the township
where he is paid He said the birds were

decoction was a trade secret" but claimed
that it took smaller quantity of it to kill
sparrows than other fowl. such as chickens
or pigeons. He said he did not work at the
business except in the fall, when all other
birds had left the country. The work was
done early In the morning, he said. because
the birds were then moro hungry, and, not
having full stomachs, they were more easily
killed. He secures between 300 and 400

No Basis for Sensational Statements
Concerning the Transport OLDHAM.
WASHINGTON, Oct 1.-THE War De-
partinent last night authorized the publica-
ton of letter which was received by Col
Charles Bird, assistant quartermaster gen.
eral Of the army. from First Lieutenant and
Quartermaster Bryand. of the Fifth United
States Volunteer Infantry, who was pas
senger on board the OLDHAM, which has Just
arrived at New York from Porto Rico. Re-
f ring to some sensational statements
made concerning the trip OF the OLDHAM, in
New York newspapers, Lieutenant Bryand
said:
Il have noticed in the papers that the
reporters again have made a mountain out
Of an ant HILL First. in regard to the fire,
] wiz to state that we did return to San
tiago. as the captain of the ship deemed it
advisable to do so, for the purpose of un-
loading some COAL used as ballast, which
had become heated. but that it amounted to
nothing, as it was discovered in time 1
myself did not see as much smoke coming
out OF the hold as one would see when
smoking cigar AS for the ship getting so
hos as to cause the paint to blister.
causing any damage to ammunition on
board, II is absolutely without foundation.
The ship was handled well, both by the
captain and crew, and the comfort of the
manner by Captain Allen.
In regard to the sick ON board / wish to
say that we had two surgeons, one assist
ant surgeon and the ships surgeon on
board the OLDHAM, and know that the sick
were looked after in a proper manner and
had all the comforts that could possibly be
had on a steamship. The convalescents
were under the orders of Lieutenant John
son, of the Nineteenth regulars. This off,
Ger looked to their welfare as good as any
captain would to his own command, and
never did hear a single complaint except In
regard to the delay, which was unavoid-
able and for the safety of the passengers.
I wish also to state that some Of the
newspapers had 1t that we were starving at
Santiago account of being short of
rations. This was investigated by General
Isawton, commanding the Department of
Santiago, and was informed by an officer
in the cOmmiSSary department at Santiago
do Cuba that over eight millions of rations
We're on hand there at that time /, myself,
never saw any starvation among the
troops. We had plenty, in fact more than

In connection with the letter of Lieut.
Bryand the War Department made public
the convalescents on board the transport

Ponce. Porto Rico, to New York. Following
