asking me to order troops to carters-

tIn response to this message, know
ing something Of the condition Of that
place and without waiting TO hear from

at would seem that these negro min

to me from the brief facts above re-

was killed except the negroes, that 1t
was a pre-arrangedi preconcsrted, pre-
meditated murder, II am right in
this conclusion, the people Of Carter

tfcally settled. although the official notifi-
cation has not yet been given.

Of decision rendered by County Judge
Kilby at an adjourned session of court
this morning. 1t means that the seven
bar rooms doing business in that sec
ton will have to stop when the present
fiscal year expires. Most of the pro-
prietors sell groceries, but with liquor
out it is believed some of them will
close.
But the liquor men haven't given up

be only temporary. An appeal to the
Circuit Court was taken. The case will
come up de novo and the applicants
expect to have better police protection.
The argument was opened to-day by
]. l.. burgess for the ''wets," who was
followed by Judge II. II. Rawles for
the ''drys." S. Il. Everett closed for the
applicants.
In his decision on the application of

was not a tit one. His ruling indicated
that all the applications would be de
