SKULL CRUSHED. BEN WILSON AND SAM WILL LlAMS ENGAGE IN
 FIGHT.
WHICH ENDED FATALLY
For Williams The Murderer Says H. Was "Jes 'Nitiatin
 Him.

Ben Wilson, a negro boy about 1g years of age, now languishes In the Jeffers on county jail charged with murder. His victim was a middle aged negro man named sam VII. Hams.
 An account of the affair as learned by n Graphic reporter today is us follows: Wilson and Williams ,were at work on the Monticello road on the Southern outskit ts of this city. They were employed by Ov,rseer Albright and had oesn working with several other han1s in Chat viciaity for several days.
 The negroes qulrrelled late Mon- day afternoon, but were separated and ordered to 'shut up by their employe
 About an hour afterwards or just before the men quit work, young Wilson stole up behind Williams and with dea th-dealing force smashed him on the head with the butt end of aa ax. The blow felled Williams and he expired instantly. His skull was burst open and his braius scat- tered over the ground. While the other hands were attending to Will Iiams. Wilson made his escape.
 The police were notified and Depu ties Stewart and Johnson went to Wilson's house. His parents denied having seen him near the house, but alter searching the place Wilson was four in the hay loft.
 He was visited Tt the jail few minutes after his incarceration and said Me had jes quit work on. the road, and was njtiatin' each udder, and sam he got mai an come up behin' anudder nigger and hit me in de eye 1 tried to get a stick, but got ho.' u axe and sam come at ne wid a knife and | hit him on De head wid de axe. I wasn't mad, We vas just 'nitiatin', and Sam he got nau."
 His statement is doubtless untrue, as the eye witnesses say they never saw Williams with q knife.
 Wilson K q were boy and does not seem to realize the gravity of hIs Ecrme.

A UNION MEETING.
Held in This City Last Evening
 Much Interest Manifested,

A big union meeting of the Order of Railway Conductors and Broth erhood of Railway Trainmen was held in this city last night and re ceived the general contract commit- tee, represen ting the ahoye organi- cations on the Cotton Belt system. The committee is busily at work en- deavoring to obtain a revision of the present contract between the Cotton Belt Railway company and members of the Order of Railway Conductors and Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, organiz ltions employed by that railway company. The object of the union meeting is to obtain a general expression of feeling from members interested. Much enthusiasm was evinced by the ,arge crowd present and the com mittee given to understand that support, financial and otherwise, would be given it by all cond uctors and trainmen on the system. Some warm and earnest speeches were made, indicating that the heart and spirit of all employees were in the move to obtain better, and the employees say, more just contract than the one now existing. There is much speculation as to the out come should eyised and accepta- be contract not be forthcoming from the railway company. The great degree of importance to be at tached 10 this meeting with the rail way officials will readily be observ- ed " hen it is announced ttat the meeting last night voices he seDti- ments of the Cotton Belts entire corps of employees from Cairo, H., to .Gatesville, Tex, and In $ tr;bu, tary.

4 Forward Movement Expected.

Washington, March 7.-There is some reason to expect important news from Manila within the next fortnight. It has developed that Gen. Otis has practically completed his plans for a grand onslaught on the insurgents, which is expected to deprive them of offensive power at least.
 It is probable that he will form a large part of his force into columns, as soon as his endorsements are all at hand, ard will push these Tn par allel lines straight through the lungles, clearing out the insurgents in every direction as the troops go forward.
 The American troops are getting restless and nervous under the pet ty but annoying sbarp-shooting of the Filipinos, and are so anxious to put stop to this that Gen. Otis has yielded to their desire.
