Negroes Refuse to Vacate or be Dispos-
sessed of Their Houses at James
City.
The attempt was made Monday after
noon. by Deputy Sheriff Tisdae to take
possession of several houses i'll James
City. occupied by negroes. but owned by
James A. Bryan. Esq, of this city.
The court has declared the ownership
of this James City property, and every
kind of overture has been made to the
negroes occupying these houses, by CIV
ing them permission to rent ana remain.
their rent commencing this spring, all
back rent being declared "of, or they
have been offered the privilege of tax
ing the houses and moving them off the
Bryan land.
But nothing so far has been accepted.
The negroes refuse to pay rent or move
away. and from Mondays behavior, they
refuse to be moved.
Deputy Tisdale. armed with warrants
to take possession. forcible If necessary,
went over Monday Afternoon. He was
met by Il crowd when he attempted to
move the furniture out Of the first house
which while it offered no ostensible on-
position, yet so crowded him that he had
to return home, completely baffled.
Sheriff Hahn with two negro deputies
next made visit.
The same crowd met the three officers,
and while they would carry out the fur
niture from one end of the house, having
to crowd through dense throng of men,
women and children, some of the ne
groes would seize the furniture as s0ol
as it was set down outside and quickly
pass it along until it was returned TO the
house.
This made the work Of the sheriff and
deputies futile, so that they never could
get a house clear of furniture so that
they could tear the building down.
After several hours efforts, Sheriff
Hahn seeing that no progress was posi-
BILE gave notice that he would return in
five days, and if hindered would take
such measures as were necessary to car
ry out his warrants.
This James City matter seems about
to be re-opened again. What the end
will be remains to be seen.

came into my hands. The law requires
n 70 . it as separate fund for the
payment Of the debts of the States

Chapter 601. Laws of 1899. which pro-
vides for the bond issue. and Chapter
60. which appropriates SO.CO0 for the
support and maintainence of the States
Prison for the year 1892 that those
debts only which became due on or be-
fore December 81. 1888 are to be paid
out OF the bond fund under Chapter GOT.
Laws of 1899 while debts coming due
since December 81. 1898, are specifically
provided for under Chapter 679 Laws of
1899. which reads:
''.Sec /. That the sum of fifty thou
sand dollars be and the same is hereby
appropriated for the maintainence and
support of the States Prison for each of
the years eighteen hundred and ninety
nine, and nineteen hundred"
No separate part of 1899 is mentioned.
