Sayings.

Gov. JOS. d. Sayers, of Texas, has
written Gov. McSweeney as follows:
Dear Sir: After much reflection, l
have concluded that it would not be
improper for me to suggest that con-
ference of the Governors and Attorney
Generals of the several States and ter
ritories to be held to consider the
effect, which the formation OF trusts is
having upon the country, and II pos
sible, to agree upon character OF leg
islatiOn that will not only force those
now existing into dissolution, but will
also prevent their further creation. |
am firmly Of the opinion that 1t as
many as twenty States can be induced
to adopt uniform policy in reference
to this generally admitted evil, and
will enforce such policy with tirmness,
impartiality and vigor, relief will surely
and quickly follow. Itcannot be doubt
ed that in this matter State. action Is
necessary and that uniformity in the
enactment and enforcement OF legls-
lati0n indispensable. | have, there
fore, to respectfully suggest to your
excellency and to the Attorney Gene
raj of your State, that a conference OF
the Governors and Attorney General
of such States and Territories as may
see proper to attend, be held ut st:
Louis, on Wednesday, the goth day OF
September, 1899, for the purpose OF
taking such action as may be deemed
proper respecting the subject matter or
this communication. An early reply,
advising me Of your views and lnten-
tlOns, is requested.

Negro Lynched by Negroes.

SARDIs Miss, June 11.-Simon
Brooks. colored, was lynched by a mob
of 500 negroes near here, having been
taken from the Jail sometime between
midnight and dawn. The crime which
was thus avenged was one of the most
atroci0us in the criminal annals Of this
State. Last night a negress named
Armistead, while returning from a
shopping tour to her home, was as
saufted by Brooks and another negro.
The woman was outraged, her throat
cut and she was severely beaten about
the head and her jaws. were tied to-
prevent breathing. Her body was then
concealed in rubbish. The woman
rallied sufficiently to give the alarm
and the names of her assailants. Part
Of the goods taken from the woman
was later found in trunln belonging
to Brooks.
The mob, which was composed en-
tirely of negroes, did its work very
quietly. The whitepeople knew moth
ing Of the atfair until hours after it
occurred.

The Loser Received Small Fortune.

NEW YORK, June 10.-The Times to-

spoils of the Jefries-F Fitzsimmons fight
was as follows Half Of the receipts
went to the Coney Island sporting
club and half to the contestants. The
amount taken in at the door was 1885,

Hall OF the admission money amount
ed to $42,635. Of this Fitzsimmons re.
ceived sixty per cent, or S25, ,5S1, and
Jeffries forty per cent, or S17,054. The
purse said to have been offered by the
club was $4,000. In the event Of
Jeffries winning this was to be fully
divided, thereby making Fitzsimmons'
total receipts S35,5S1 and Jeffries' S27,-
O54.
It is declared that F1tzsimmons
would not make the match until he
had been guaranteed the large end OF
the purse and the gate money, owing
to his reputation and position. Man
ager Brady accepted 40 per cent. for
his man, believing that in the long run
such an amount and decision were

Filled Him With Lead.

ATLANTA, GA, June 5.-A special
from Columbus, Ga, says:
An unknown negro made an attempt
yesterday to assault Mrs. David Ward,
who lives three miles west OF Girard.
Mrs. Ward defended herself with a
pistol, and sent two bullets after the
frightened wretch.
While posse was securing the woods
to-day to find the negro, leaving Mrs.
Ward alone, her husband joining in
the chase, the same negro, with re,
markable nerve, entered the Ward
home again and made the second at
tempt at assault. This time he tore
the clothes from Mrs. Ward, but she
managed to secure her pistol and shot
the negro four times.
Mrs. Ward says she saw the negro
fall several times while running from
the house. Bloodhounds from Opelika
have been telegraphed for. If not
already dead from the wounds it is
expected the negro will be lvnched.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the
diseased portion Of the ear. There is only one
way to cure Deafness, and that is by consiitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inham-
ed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustach-
ian Tube. When this tube gets inlamed you have
a rumbling ound or imperfect hearing and when
it is entirely cosed deafness is the result, ana
unless the inflammation can be taken out and THIS
tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out OF ten are
caused by catarrah, which is nothing hut an IN

Secretary Root may assume more III
portant part in the present campaign IMAM

Root has not only ascertained where Tue
United States troops are located and mas
them nicely marked off on the map, out
he has also taken into consideration such
information as can be obtained re!atlVe
10 the population of the adjacent country,
the disposition of the people towards Tue
United States, etc. The secretary Is study
ing the lines OF transportation leaIuins
what he can geographically OF the country.
1t is believed that more than one army
can operate to advantage in the Philip
pines and the suggestion has been MADE
that an army should start from diherent
points and operate in such manner as
to distract and destroy the Filipino
forces.
At present the United States forces do
not occupy the line of railway half way to
Lingayen 1t has been suggested that II
one force were to start from Lingayen anu
move south at the same time that another
moving north there would be very great
probability of soon securing the entire
railway Tor the use or the army and llS
insurgents would be separated into divls-
ions east and west by the railway as they
are now divided into northern and south
ern bands. Between Angeles and Lin
gayen is Tarac, a town of considerable
size and situated in a province where the
natives are said not to be unfrendly to
the United States. If this province could
be occupied it might be of great advantage
to the government.
| While these are merely suggestions 1t
may be that when an army in the Philip
pines consists OF sixty thousand men in
stead OF about twenty or Twenty-Five
/ thousand it Will be possible to have five
or more armies operating instead OF two
as during the last campaign.

women became hysterical.
Most OF the passengers kept in their
rooms and those on the upper deck were
unable to get out The ship rolled and
lurched as the huge waves struck her and
broke over her decks. The doors and VIM
dows were battered but every moment
during the iiercest of the storm it was
feared the sky lights would be broken

At one time the danger of fire was
added to the horror of the storm. Friday
the electric light wires set fire to the cas-
ing in the after companionway. the fire
worked its way along the casing to tile
main saloon. The alarm was given and
the call to quarters was sounded. The
storm was still at its height but the crew
responded quickly to the call and the fire
was subdued Captain Fisher was in
jured though not seriously and one OF the
crew was thrown against the deck and
internally injured. The coal passers were
hard worked.

II Has Bcen Forwarded 10 the Brit

Cane Town, August 20.--The Transvaal
government, It is reported here, has
handed its reply to the British agent at
Pretoria, to be forwarded to Sir Alfred
Miner. British high commissioner for
South Africa and governor OF Cape Colony.
Conflicting accounts are given as TO its
contents and It is possible that the reports
are premature and that the reply will be
delayed owing TO the trouble With Portugal
about the transportation OF ammunition.
consigned to the Transvaal, now in De-
lagoa bay.
Strong feeling has been aroused here
by the fact that the Transvaal is sending
large quantities OF war material for dis
