MRS. w. Y. ATKINSON
Writes of the Burning of Sam Hosea
Terrible Day

Atlanta, Ga, April 29.-Mrs. w. Y. Atkin-
son, whose husband, Former Governor At
kinson, made an earnest effort to prevent
the burning of Sam Hose, has written a
letter to friend in Atlanta telling of the
occurrence. Mrs. Atkinson says
$50. II am just recovering from the terrible
day OF the fire and blood in this heretofore
law-abiding town. Nothing approaching
the wild scene was ever witnessed here be-
fore. 1t being Sunday, and many people
idle and on the streets. added to the ex-
element. The mob was deaf to all con-
servative voices. However, there were few
of these.
The day reminded me of the Sunday
afternoon in Mexico City just before bull
fight, only here 1t was much more intense
in blood-thirstiness. There was a certainty
of death the moment the horrible creatures
foot rested on Newman SOIL for a crowd
of armed men brought him here. Had the
walls of the Coliseum been around that
burning stake and its writing human
form, scene of old Rome would have
been perfectly reproduced in this COM
munity, and doubtless the spirit of the
ancient Caesar would have applauded their
apostles of the nineteenth century as the
fires thick flame shot a dismal glare.
while we feel that no punishment could
be too severe for that criminal, it is gen.
orally deplored that death so barbarous
was given him in this community. The
possible injury to the boys and young men
is inconceivable.
I'VE rejoice to know that the mob, on its
arrival, was not strengthened by Newman
people. The prisoner was safely protected
by an escort from a neighboring town
Griffin. Their faces were the last into
which he looked"

THE ASSESSMENT
MUST Be RETURNED
American Merchant at BIuefeldS
Will Be Protected.
OUR MINISTER INSTRUCTED
To Inform the Nicaraugan Government
and the Cruiser Detroit is Ready
~ to Enforce Demand-Amica-
BILE Settlement Expected

New York. April "a special from
Washington says:
secretary Hay has cabled Instructions to
Minister Merry, at Bluefields informing
him that the United States could not per-
nit the double assessment of American
merchants at Buefieds on goods imported
into that port. -
Minister Merry, who has been at Blue
fields making an investiga ton of the COM
plants of American merchants, is expected
under the instructions sent him to demand
the refundng of such duties as were paid
under protest and that General Torres, the
Nicaraguan official in charge of the depart
ment, shall desist from his attempts to en-
force payment of the duties.
1T is the position of this government
that, as the American importers paid to
the insurrectionist government the duties
on goods brought into Bluefields during
the period from February to February %,
the Nicaraguan government after it reas-
sumed control had no right to endeavor
to assess them again for the amount of
such duties.
ut is contended by the Nicaraguan gov
eminent that the Americans really paid the
money to the agents to aid them in their
revolt and to prevent the former from
being illegally assessed, a decree was is
sued by President Zeaya. Immediately
after the port was occupied by the insur-
rectionists announcing that no dutis would
be collected there.
THE officials do not recognize the posi-
ton of the Nicaraguan government, how
ever, on the ground that in the case of a
vessel at sea with pershable freight on
board and bound for Buefeds, her agents
would be compelled to pay dutis demanded
by the defacto government, which at that
time was the insurrectionist government, in
order to save the cargo
AS the Detroit is at Bluefields ready to
enforce Mr.. Merry's demands no doubt is
felt that the incident will be closed with
out much further trouble.
THE Detroit Immediately upon the con-
clusion of the incident will be brought to
Washington to participate in the peace
jubilee ceremonies to be held here next
month";
