LON0KE'S NEGROES LEAVING.
SITUATION CRITICAL AND BUSINESS
AT A sTANDsTILL.

Reign of Terror Reported Prevail

Drive Out the Blacks and a Meet
ing Called for Yesterday After
nOOn-Part of the White POpuIa-
tiOn Also Leaving.
Little Rock, Ark, Jan. 29-The situation
at Lonoke continues critical. According
to the last reports reaching here to-day,
the negroes were leaving in droves and
business was at a standstill.
1t is hard to get reliable information
concerning the situation from the
usual news sources, but parties arriv-
ing here from Lonoke this afternoon as
sert that reign of terror prevails and af-
fairs are in a worse condition than last
night
A travelling salesman came up from Lo-
noke this afternoon. He said that peace
full negroes who have lived at Lonoke for
years are taking their families and leav-
ing town. The younger negroes are sui
len and defiant He says that business is
at a standstill, and he had to leave there
because he could do no business. He
says there is a we'll organized movement
among an element of the whites to run
all negroes out and that a meeting of
white men was to have been held this aft
ernoon at Lonoke to devise plans for car
rying out this purpose.

would-be lynchers after being seriously
wounded, was summoned to appear before
the grand jury which meets Feb. Z. Simon
ton called on Gov. Jones and expressed
fear that if he returned to the city he
would be killed. He appealed to the Gov
ernor for protection and he has been as
sured that it would be given. If necessary
Simonton will be escorted to Lonoke by
company of militia.
The trouble in Lonol1e county dates back
twenty-five years. At that time three white
men, all prominent were killed by negroes.
The crime resulted in a race war in which
numbers on both sides participated. A
party of whites took refuge in a swamp
which was surrounded by negroes, and
terrible battle took place before the be-
siegers were routed. Ever since there has
been more or less trouble in Lonol1e coun-
ty. The feud then started has been con-
tinued by the sons and relatives of the
three murdered men and many tragedies
have resulted.
1t is not to be understood that the bitter
feeling against the negroes extends to all
of the white inhabitants of Lonoke. Many
of the white citizens have done all in their
power to prevent trouble and deplore the
present situation, but they have been una
