REGISTRATION CLOSED
Only About One-Half the Voters Quail
 fed

Registration for the state and federal elections to be held this year closed last night The number of voters in the two Birmingham precincts Is much less than the total number of voters, but it is larger than it was thought it would be a few days ago. Several hundred voters registered yes- terday and the day before. Nearly two thousand voters in Beat 37 qualified, and a little over 1,5O0 in beat 21 making total of between S,5OO and 4,0OO for the entire city. This is not more than half of the legal voters in Birmingham.
 The law requires that all voters must register before they can vote In any state or federal election, and accordingly those who failed to qualify during the last thirty days will not be allowed to vote in August or November unless they were absent from the city or for some other legal reason pre- vented from registering previous to today.

IN THE INTEREST OF
 EXPORT IRON TRADE
Vice-President and Treasurer James Bow ron of Tennessee Company Leaves
 for Europe Tomorrow.

Vice-President and Treasurer James Bowron of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company will leave tomorrow for Europe to be absent several months. It is understood that MT. Bowron goes to Eu- rope this time in the interest of the ex- port business of his company. He was abroad recently and brought back most encouraging reports of the conditions pre- vailing there The prospects for large export iron business next fall and winter are good, and it is stated that MT. Bowron will go to the iron centers of Europe and try to place a considerable portion of his company's product.
 Recently there has been quite a demand in Europe for Alabama iron, but sales have been held down to small tonnage on account of the lack of bottoms in which to ship. It is believed this scarcity will be provided against next winter and that good export trade can be built up.

DETERMINED MOBS
 IN TWO STATES Negro Murderer Surrounded in
 Louisiana. AND MOB MEANS BUSINESS It is Believed That the Negro Askew, Charged With the Murder of Miss Winterstein, Will Yet be
 Roughly Handled

New Orleans, La, June 9.-A special from Baton Rouge says:
 The negro Noah Pritchard, who brutally murdered Samuel Marler at Devall La., on Wednesday, has not yet been captured, but he is known to be in this parish, and the country is fairly alive with armed men. Guards are placed at every road and re- wards have been offered for the murderer dead or alive.
 Joseph Rodriguez, one of the citizens posse, who arrived here today, had des- perate fight with the negro. The latter fired at Rodriguez with his Winchester, and Rodriguez fired back at short range with his shotgun, but the desperado finally managed to escape into the woods
 Men from six parishes are now hunting the negro in this parish, and if he is taken alive so intense is the excitement that there is little doubt but that he will be summarily and publicly executed
 The latest news received here is that the negro is surrounded near Baker. An inn mense meeting of citizens from several parishes was held at Devall tonight. Be- fore the close of the meeting several noto- rious negroes were publicly whipped. A crowd of determined men will arrive here on the south-bound freight some time dur ing the night. It is said they intend to cross the river and join the mass meeting and take a leading part in a few necktie performances in the vicinity of Deyall s Landing.

ASKEW IS DOOMED
Supposed Murderer of Miss Winterstein
 Will Probably be Lynched

Mississippi City, June 9.-Concerning the negroes believed to be guilty of the murder and outrage of the Wintersten child, Askew, whose life seems charmed, is doomed to die by violent hands, and Russ will in all probability meet the same fate. The strong guard placed on the jail last night led everyone to believe that the sheriff intended to defend the prisoners in the jail, and his ruse worked well. The talk of lynching the negroes grows bolder with each succeeding day. The officers have not been able to secure any further evidence, but the majority of the citizens now seem satisfied that Askew is the guilty brute. There is not so much cer- tainty expressed as to Russ. The lynchers, it is believed, have their plans better laid tonight, and any moment may bring news of the success of their efforts.

Hanged Both to Same Tree

Biloxi, Miss, June 9.-On the same tree in a thicket behind the railway station at Mississippi City, Askew and Russ swing, a warning to the negroes of this fair state that the lives of women and children are to be protected.
 Tonight a small mob gathered at the de- pot and went to the jail. The sheriff did his best to protect his prisoners, but the two black brutes were rushed into a wa- gon and driven to the railroad crossing Both were hung, bound together back to back. No confession was made, but one of them was guilty and the crowd was not going to let him escape.
