WANT HIM PUNISHED
Negroes Petition Gambler Not to Delay
Execution of One of Their Number

Camilla, Ca, May 17.-At the April term
of the superior court for Mitchell comfy,
Jim Kimberly colored, was convicted OF
the murder of his aunt, and sentenced to
be hanged May 16.
Yesterday shortly before the hour of the
execution the sheriff received notification
from the governor that Kimberly had been
respited for thirty days upon petition Of
leading white citizens of the county. The
petitioner alleged grave doubts of the
moral responsibility of the condemned man
and asked for an inquiry into his mental
condition. Two members of the jury which
convicted the man signed the petition. To-
day leaders of the colored population drew
up and circulated a petition to the COVER
nor praying that the law be permitted to
take its course in the case of Kimberly and
deploring that he was not promptly hanged
on the date named by the court The col
ored petitioners direct attention to the allie
cation recently advanced by the governor
himself and frequently made by others,
that the delays of the law are largely re-
sponsible for lynchings, and call upon the
governor to see to it, in the interest of law
and order that justice is speedily melted
out to this murderer.

CAUSED CAHABA
RIVER WRECK
Is the Charge Against Alonzo
Jones, COlOred.
JAILED AT CENTERVILLE
Arrested by w. E. Wright At West
Point, Miss, in Connection With
Famous Catastrophe Which
Cost Twenty-six Lives
JAILED AT CENTERVILLE

A sensational arrest has been made in
connection with the famous Cahaba river
wreck, which, it is claimed, VIII clear up
the mystery surrounding that terrible
catastrophe, and fix the responsibility upon
a black brute, who, through revengeful
motive, deliberately planned the destruction
which cost twenty-six human lives, bes des
the loss OF an immense amount of valuable
property
News reached the city yesterday that
Alonzo Jones, a desperate negro, had been
landed in the Bib county jail at Center
vile, charged with having caused the
wreck. Jones was arrested at West Point
Miss. by Special Agent w. E. Wright, of
the Louisville and Nashville railroad who
claims that he has ample evidence to con-
Wet the negro.
The terrible accident occurred on Sunday
morning, December 81, 1896, when the res
ular Blocton train, which left the city at
a. m. O'Clock over the Birmingham Min
eral railroad, branch of the Louisville
and Nashville system, without apparent
cause, when through the bridge over the
Cahaba river, falling distance of ITO feet.
work of Train Wreckers
The wreck was the most horrible in the
history of Alabama railroads, and be-
cause of the substantial nature of the
bridge, which was one of the best in the
district, it was thought that the terrible
tragedy was the work of train wreckers.
Experienced railroad men who were
early on the scene expressed the opinion
that rail near the center of the bridge
had been removed, and that the derai.ed
train was caused to plunge to it's own
destruction.
This theory was so strongly entertained
by the officials of the road that quiet
investigation was begun, which resulted in
the arrest of several persons, charged with
the crime, but who were subsequently
turned loose for want of sufficient evil
dence.
AS result of the accident more than
thirty damage suits were filed against the
Louisville and Nashville railroad, many Of
which were compromised, cost the road a
large sum OF money. --.<t---
During all this time agents have been al
work trying to solve the mystery and to
bring me guilty party to justice.
Just what evidence has been obtained
against Jones is not given out, but it IS
said that he was formally in the employ
of the Louisville and Nashville railroad
and shortly before the wreck was discharg-
ed for neglect of duty.
The negro, so it is claimed. in spirit OF
revenge removed a rail on the bridge in
order to wreck the train and then fed.
Under the law train wrecking is one OF
the few crimes for which the death PEN
atty can be inflicted, and if a conclusive
case can be made out against Jones it is
safe to say that no jury would hesitate to
give him the full limit of the law

EXTRA SESSION NOT SETTLED
Mckinley Sends CONGRATULATIONS to
Lawton and His Men

Hot Springs. Va, May 17.-President Nc
the subject of an extra session of congress.
This statement was made officially here to-
night and was brought forward by publish
ing announcements that an extra session
had been decided upon on the one hand
and on the other that such a session would
be called.
The dispatch of General Otis regarding
the capture of San Isado by General Law
ton and his forcing of the scattered insur-
gent ranks into the mountains was for
warded here by the war department. The
news it brought was so pleasing to Mr..
Mckinley that he Immediately sent his con-
gratulations to General Lawton in the fol-
lowing telegram:
"To Otis, Manila:
Convey to General Lawton and the gall
liant men of his command my congratula-
tons upon the successful operations during
the past month resulting in the capture
this morning of San Isado.
('Sgned) VIM. MKINLEY."
Advices were also received from Cuba
which were stated to be ''more reassuring"
and that a satisfactory outcome of the
present situation there would result The
presidents visit here is nearly at an end.
Though the time of departure has not
been definitely fixed, it is almost certain
that the party will reach Washington some
time Sunday. The rest from official rou-
tine the freedom from intrusion and the
air has given the president the recupera-
ton he needed. He appears thoroughly
healthful and will return to Washington
invigorated and well.
