Otis in his recent order on account of the disturbed conditions.
 The Americans occupy a few. coast towns which the insurgents. surround constantly assailing the garrisons which are too small to attempt operations in the surrounding country.
 Major Wise with two companies is in Donsol, an important town of Sorogon, surrounded by thousand insurgents. The Americans occupy trenches and are con tinually exchanging shots with the enemy. Several regiments are needed to control each southern province but they cannot be spared from their present stations. An other squadron of cavalry will be sent to General Bell.
 On the first trouble occurring with the Moros in the southern part of Mindianao, at Cottobatto, Major Brett sent detach- ment to preserve peace at conference be- tween two quarreling chiefs During the conference the tribesmen began shooting. One of the bands fired upon the Americans from an old Spanish fort. The soldiers re- turned the fire, killing several of the na- tives, but they were unable to take the fort, although a gunboat shelled it. Major Brett is sending a larger body to punish the recalitrants. The death of white man from bubonic plague occurred today. The victim was government teamster. Several natives have died since the outbreak of the plague.

DECISION REVERSED
In the Moonshiners Gases Sent up From
 Alabama

Washington, May H.-In the supreme court of the United States today Justice Harlan handed down the decision of the court in the case of Columbus, Winches- ter, Notes and others charged with the murder of w. A. Thompson in Alabama because he had given inrormation con cerning their operations moonshiners The men were all sentenced to life inn prisonment, but the opinion handed down today reversed the decision with reference to all of them except Notes on the ground that an affidavit by one of the gang named Taylor, who had turned states evidence
 was admitted when this court held that Taylor himself should have been produced witness. The verdict wSl.. reference to Notes was affirmed because he had sworn that he and Taylor were alone re- sponsible for Thompson's murder. Hav- ing confessed his own guilt, Notes could not be given the benefit of the decision in the other case, even though Taylor's af- fidavit had borne upon his case as we'll as upon the other cases. ff

Hot Campaign

Frankfort, Ky, May 1.-The fire bells were rung and wild demonstrations fol- lowed on the streets on the part of the dem ocrats when the news of the supreme court decision was heard. The decision of the supreme court in favor of Governor Beck ham means that there will be the hottest election in Kentucky for governor next No- vember that ever was known in the com monwealth. Beckham as lieutenant gov ernor became the chief executive on the death of Governor Goebel on February g., and under the law can serve only until the election of his successor at the. next cleo tion.
 It is thought Beckham will be the demo- cratic nominee and former Gov. Taylor the republican nominee. It is stated that the latter has become so impoverished by the contests of the past year that he can not afford to make the race again unless ins friends arrange to bear his personal as well as his political expenses during the canvass. The election will be under the Goebel law, the same last November, and the main republican issue will be for the repeal of that law.

When News Was Received in Frank

 ment of the supreme courts decision at Washington was received here with the widest demonstration on the part of the democrats. At 4 clock this afternoon the Taylor soldiers who have been in charge
 of the state capitol building and grounds

 was assassinated, evacuated and turned

 The Taylor soldiers before giving up their
 sovereignty on the state capitol were lined
 up by Adjutant General Collier, who form
 ally notified them that he had orders from Governor Taylor to dismiss all the soldiers, and that the evacuation would begin at
 once. The fire bells were ringing, cannons
 boomed and the city put in holiday att
 tire in honor of Governor Beckham. A
 touching incident occurred this afternoon
 when -2,000 people marched to the cemetary,
 each wearing a flower which was cast upon
 the grave of the late William E. Goebel,
 making the little mound which marks his resting place vast bank of flowers. There
 were no ceremonies at the grave except a
 prayer by Rev. Mir Taliaferro of the Meth
 odiSt church.

 that there are isuues involved in their cases
 which were not decided in the governorshp case.

FLOW FACTORY
 GOES TO ENSLEY AuStin-Bryan Plant Located in
 That City. SITE HAS BEEN SELECTED
Near the Steel Mill-Work of Construo- ton to Begin at Once-Capitat Stock of the Company
 is $15O,oOo

Ensley gets the blow factory of the Aus tin-Bryan Manufacturing company. The site has been selected and purchased by the company, and work on the construction of the plant will begin at once. It is stated that 1t must be completed and the factory ready to go in operation by the middle of August.
 The Bryan Manufacturing com pany some time ago contracted for tract of land including the entire block surround ed by Avenues A and B and Tenth and Eleventh streets, and was granted permis- sion to build a railroad track from the Louisville and Nashville main line to the factory by tho city council three weeks ago. The Birmingham Belt Railroad com pany, which has a right of way over this same route, refused to allow the branch road to cross it's line This opposition on the part of the Belt company caused the Austin Bryan company to seek another To- cation where better railroad facilities could be secured and the result is the plant goes to Ensley.
 The blow factory will be located near the Ensley steel mill, and will get its supply of steel from that company. Flows and other agricultural implements will be manufac- tured.
 The capital stock of the Austin-Bryan comapny is S150,O00 and between two hum dred and three hundred men will be em- ployed when it is put in operation.

NEGRO QUESTION
Long Discussion of Fitness for Ministry
 in the South

Atlanta. May H- the evening session of the Presbyterian assembly was given over to the first of the popular meetings which have been arranged for each remaining night the assembly is in session. Negro evangelization in the south came up promi- nently, and on this subject the report of
 the committee was read by Dr. Donald Me Queen of Anniston, Ala. Rev. D. c. Lilly, secretary of the Stillman institute for ne
 groes at Tuscaloosa, Ala, spoke earnestly
 of the progress of the work of evangeliza-
 tion in the colored race. He drew no pie
 lures of success and prosperity, and his
 view as to the future of the black race was
 by no means encouraging. He emphasized
 the growing needs of the black man in the
 south the troubles growing out of the at
 tempt to give him knowledge and under
 standing by legislation, and impressed upon
 the church the urgency of the demand for
 greater attention to this home mission
 work,
 The report of the committee showed
 plainly that the plans for Afro-Ameri- can church had not been consummated; that they could not be consummated with out organization and concentration In his introductory remarks Dr. Mcqueen, who read the report, said:
 Some one has facetiously remarked, perhaps, that when a missionary goes to Africa to aid in the evangelization of the race there he is cannonized. When he stays at home to teach the negro here he is ostracised. There is a mediocum of truth between these extremes brought about by the existence of race prejudice" The report urged the increase of the fa- cilities of the Stillman institute so that 1t can receive 250 pupils. This was the dying wish of Dr. O. s. Wilson, president of the | institute, whose death occurred some time ago.
 The memorial of Dr. Wilson was then | read by Dr. Theron B. Rice of Atlanta. | The paper was ably prepared, and went | over the features of conspicuous service | rendered by the deceased to the Presbyte- | rian church. At the close of the reading | the general assembly at Il p. m. adjourned | until tomorrow morning.
