Hanged For Robbery.

Pulaski, Va, Sept 15-Noah
Finley, a negro, was hanged here
today. A large crowd was pres
ent, but there Was no disorder.
Finley's crime was highway
robbery and attempted murder
and his execution was the only
instance in late years In which the
extreme penalty has been imposed
in Virginia for this offense. He
held up Maj j II Darst, a mer-
chant of Dublin, and robbed him
of his watch and money. He
then ordered his victim to return
to his store for the purpose of
opening the safe. Maj Darst
made a dash and escaped, the ne
gro firing several shots at him,
none Of which took effect.

consequence of the bloody riot
which occurred here at noon yes
4erday, in which seven negroes
were killed, another regiment of
soldiers arrived tonight and was
added to the large force already

The town tonight is full of arm

that only the strong force of mil

seeking bloody vengeance.
Excitement is yet intense and
there may be trouble later tonight

Special to The State.

Special to The State.
EIIorce, Sept 15-Mr Jake
Houck, a prosperous farmer of
the Jericho section, met his death
in a most horrible manner at the
ginnory of his brother, w d
Houck, yesterday morning. 1t
seems that the gin became choked
and in order to clean the saws the
breast was raised and while Mr.
w D Houck was behind the gin
removing the obstacle, his atten-
tion was suddenly called to the
front, going there he found his
brothers. prostrate form com
pIetely sucked in by the saws and
his body cut and mangled in a
fearful manner How the sad at =
fair happened no one knows, as
the deceased when last seen alive
by his brother was sitting on the
ginhouse steps several feet from
where be met his untimely end.
1t is supposed that he went to the
gins front to pick up some cotton
that had fallen over the breasts,
and in some manner slipped and
fell upon the deadly saws, coming
to his death without a moment 5
warning.
Mr. HOuck was about 3S years
old and unmarried.

Trouble has been brewing since

kept up. The negroes scattered,
some being closely followed by
the whites up the main street,
while the remainder fled down the
railroad track. Here the execu-
&ion was done, all who went thro'
town escaping. After the fight was
,over six dead bodies were picked
up and another mortally wounded.
They were taken to the city hall,
where the wounded man was at.
tended to and an inquest held over
the dead ones.
Vhe affair is really an outcome

procurement of negroes to work

Gov. Tanner has ordered two
companies of the Fourth regiment
under command of Col Bennett, to
Cartersville. He received tele

Seneca, S. c., Sept. 16-This
enterprising community has one

1t is a fine test of grit and means
on the part of the men in the
fight, and veritable picnic for
the farmers, who are badly in
need of diversion in these blue
times. This is cotton gin war
and it has been in progress since
cotton opened. 1t is Il local affair
but 1t is decidedly interesting.
There are two cotton ginneries
here with the finest known plants
and the owners are veterans in
business and men of means. The
Seneca Oil Mill ginnery has the

Coleman is the manager. r. Nj.
Richardson has model establish
ment with a capacity of thirty
bales. The two places are about
100 yards apart.
The regular rate for ginning
cotton Is 81 out of every 500.
Recently Mr. Coleman broadcasted
the bailiwick with circulars an
nouncing rate of 10 cents per
100 pounds and his place was
blockaded with wagons in a few
hours. Mr. Richardson got tired
of seeing so much business at the
other place and announced rate
of 2! cents per 100.
Yesterday morning both con
Germs commenced ginning without
charge and the amount of cottnr
that has come in is astonishing ir
this year of short crops. Th>
entire community is enjoying th;
fun and wondering how long i
will last. The gins in the county
are doing very little. In addition
to this the price OF cotton seed ha
advanced from 80 to 65 cents pc

after a lingering illness of II
weeks. In June he fell from his
fathers barn loft, where he was
playing with some companions,
and fractured his skull. He has
never been conscious since and
life continued simply as a battle
against physical collapse. His
parents have the sympathy of the
community in their continued af-

John Scales, a we'll known
negro offender, was shot on the
streets of Yorkvillc last Thursday
night, and is now lying in tho
county jail in serious condition
that may or may not prove fatal.
The shooting was done by Chief
of Police Love, while in the dis
charge of his duty.
Scales was wanted for beutiny
and robbing his wife. The Of
fsnse was committed last June
year ago; but he left town
shortly afterward and Chief Love
has been carrying a warrant for
him ever since. 1t was only
short time ago that Scales return
ed to Yorkville, and accompanied
by Mcssrs. r. II. Dobson and j.
Crawford Moore, Chief Love
went to negro house on tho
premises of MIR. Il. j. Herndon
Thursday night to serve the war
rant.
Messrs. Dobson and Moore
were unarmed. There was no
light in the house. Chief Love
opened the door, walked in,
struck a match and finding Scales
IN bed, told him to get up and
come along. Scales said he would
90 as soon as he put on his clothes.
While he was apparently so en-
gagged, Chief Loves match went
out, and an instant later, Scales
stuck revolver in his face. Chief
Love knocked up the pistol with
one hand and struck Scales with
his bill y. Scales'S pistol, which,
by the way, was a good one
double acting 3S calibre-snap-
ped. Then Scales jumped out of
the door and ran, Chief Love fol
lowing. Chief Love fired two or
three shots in the air, all the time
calling ON Scales to halt Instead
of halting, Scales turned, took
deliberate aim at Chief Love and
fired. Chief Love then aimed
point blank and shot to hit. The
outlet entered 'Scaics's body be-
!aw the right shoulder, passed
through the right lang and stop
ped IN the windpipe.
After he was saot, Scales ran a
short distance further, and caught
hold of IA fence for support. He
still had his revolver; but when
Chief Love ordered him to TIN 0w
up MS nandS, ne let lne weapon
drop over in the grass, and rs soon
as possible he was removed to the
| Jail.
Upon examination DR.. Walker
found Chief Loves bullet II

trated about half way through
9 and with careful work was taker
l out of slit the doctor had cut il
the throat. The reporter went tC
see Scales yesterday morning. He
was at that time as comfortable q:
n could be expected.
