SOUTHERN RACE WAR.
A Battle Between Blacks and Whites
 In Mississippi.

The most bloody race war that has occurred in Mississippi since the excit- tng days of the reconstruction period ragged in Scott county, 60 miles west of Meridian. Saturday night and Sunday.
 The war grew out of an assault on Charles Freeman, white man, by Billy Burke, a negro. Freeman and Burke became involved in a quarrel. which ended in Burke assaulting Freeman with a hoe. warrant was sworn out for the arrest of Burke, and Constable Thompson, with 15 men, went to the house of Burke, who lives a mile from Harperville, Saturday night to execute the writ. When Constable Thompson and his posse arrived. they found Burke fortified in his little log hut. with 50 or 60 negroes ambushed on the premises, and the officers demand for a surren- der was answered with volley.
 Officer Sibley, one of the posse was instantly killed and three others, in- cluding Constable Thompson. seriously wounded. The posse was thrown into confusion by the volleys, but the first was returned, and for a time a desperate battle ragged in the dark The negroes were greatly in the majority, however, and the officers retired and sent run
 
 with heavy endorsements, and the battle was resumed Sunday morning. The fight was kept up all day. and when the last courier reached the near est telegraph office, ten miles from the scene of the battle, at a late hour that night he reported ten negroes had been killed and several wounded. Many ne- groes were captured and taken to For est where they were guarded by 200 white men to prevent their rescue by negro sympathizers. Fearing further trouble and possibly an attempt to lynch the prisoners, they were subse- quently sent under a strong guard to Meridian.
 Governor McLauren went to the scene of the disturbance on Sunday night and urged moderation, which seemed to have a good effect and the rioting was discontinued. The negroes who fled to the swamps after the fight have made good their escape. and the race conflict is now at an end:

vent deEeneration. There must be 1iew life and purpose or there will be weakness and decay. There must be broadening of thought as we'll as broadening of trade. Territorial expansion is not alone and all ways necessary to national advancement. There must be n constant movement to- ward a higher and nobler civilization. a civilization that shall make It's conquests without resort 10 war and achieve its greatest victories pursuing the arts of peace. In our present situation duty and duty alone should prescribe the boundary of our responsibilities and the scope oi our undertakings
 The final determination of our purpose awaits the action of the eminent men who are charged by the executive with the making of the treaty of peace and that of the senate of the United States, which by our constitution must ratify and con. firm 1t. We all hope and pray that the confirmation of peace will be as just and as humane as the conduct and consum. nation of the war. When the work of the treaty makers is done, the work of the lawmakers will begin. The one will settle the extent of our responsibilities the other must provide the legislation to meet them. The army and navy have nobly and heroically performed their part May God give the executive and congress wisdom to perform theirs.

Roosevelt at Buffalo.

Buffalo. Oct. 26.-Colonel Roosevelt and his party arrived here last even ing after a stirring trip through cen tral New York and received a great ovation. He made four speeches in va rious sections of the city during the evening, the principal meeting being at Music hall, where he was greeted by 5000 people. At this meeting Colonel Roosevelt referred to the national guard and the volunteer soldiers, touch ing briefly upon his letter to Secretary Alger, in which was made the compari- son between the national guard and his command of Rough Riders. He said, After some experience in actual war fare I think I considerably understated the case when I said that one high power, smokeless powder, repeating rifle was worth at least three low pow er black powder, old style single shot rifles"
