ANNUAL ENCAMPMENT.
Governor Jelks Has Directed the Adju-
 tant General to Make Arrangements.

Age-Herald Bureau, Clancey's Hotel. Montgomery, June 19.-(Special.)-It has been definitely settled that the Alabama National Guard will hold the annual en- campment this year. Governor Jelks so notified Adjutant General Brandon today.
 Colonel Brandon was instructed to go to work on the details of the encamp- ment. Tn accordance with these instruc- tions Colonel Brandon has ordered the regimental commanding officers to meet him here on Monday next, the 24th in- stant At this conference the time and place for holding the different camps will be decided upon. The troops. it Is ex- pected. will be camped in regiments, as the proposition to hold brigade encamp- ment has not met with much favor among the officers.
 Huntsville As a strong bidder for the camps and one or more regiments will go there The State only appropriates s12,5oo for the expenses of the three regiments of infantry, battalion of artillery and battalion of cavalry, and 1t is necessary for the town that gets regiment to piece out the appropriation with fund raised by public subscription,
 While the General Assembly made the necessary appropriation, it is optional with the Governor to call the camp of instruction. Governor Jelks has taken the high ground that the State troops are en- titled to their annual camps as they ten der their service to the State and are willing to go out to maintain law and or der whenever the State government calls upon them.

confirmation of Reported Killing of
 One of the Band of Murderers.

Gonzales. Tex, June 19.-A dispatch has just been received from Deputy United States Marshal William Hanson stating that one of the slayers of Sheriff Glover has been captured and one killed and that a posse of five officers Is close on the trail of Gregoria Cortez. This Is probably a confirmation of the battle and captures reported yesterday. Rangers and officers continue to SCOUT the country in the neighborhood of Alice. San Diego and Banavides in search of the Mexicans sus- pected of the murder. Late last evening Marshal Niland received information that the rangers had killed a Mexican near Banavides who resisted arrest officers here are of the opinion that the dead man belongs to the gang wanted for killing Sheriff Glover of Gonzales. The scene has shifted to the border, but every detail and movement of the posses Is watched with eager interest by the people of Con- gales. John w. Glover of Colorado City, Tex, an uncle of Sheriff Glover, has of fered reward of $500 for the arrest and conviction of the slayers of that official.
 Men who know the Mexican murderers of Sheriff Glover left at noon today for San Diego to identify the dead Mexican and the one captured.

TEXAS AROUSED.
Expectations and Murders of Mexican
 Band Causes Indignation.

Belmont, Tex, June 19.-Western Texas Is thoroughly aroused over the recent killing of Sheriffs Morris and Glover and Constable Schnabel by Mexican outlaws. Large posses are pursuing the murderers and every section of west Texas between the scene of the killing and the Rio Grande river is systematically guarded. There are thousands of acres of dense undergrowth, however, with which the Mexicans are thoroughly familiar and the officers are not. The three men who es- capped after Friday nights shooting are known to be armed with the latest im- proved rifles, and owing to their desper- ate character they will doubtless resist capture with their lives
 This gang has accomplices in almost the entire district from the Rio Gran1e to the Colorado river. They have been depredating farms, ranches and country stores from one end of west Texas to the other for years. The people are now thor oughly aroused and summary vengeance will be dealt to the fugitives if captured.

PINGREE'S TRIP
 TO SOUTH AFRICA
His Mission Was Three Fold He Wanted Boer Settlers
 For This Country

Detroit Mich, June 19-In an interview this afternoon, with a correspondent of the Detroit Journal, Col. Eli R. Sutton of this city, who was the travelling com- panion of former Governor Pingree of Michigan during his trip through South Africa and Europe said:
 "Hazen s. Pingree went to South Af- rica largely to put into practical effect three big schemes.
 First, the reclamation of the immense pine wastes In Michigan by planting trees He went to the Bavarian black for est to expand this idea and overworked so much that he hastened his death.
 Second, the rotation of crops in Mich igan. In pursuit of this scheme he went to Egypt, where such a system is en- forced by the government.
 Third, the transportation of every pa triotic Boer and his family who desired to come to the United States. He quizzed British officials on this subject, gained their approval of it, and had an ap- pointment to consult with MT. Kruger about 1t, which was only prevented by his illness"

EMPLoYEs PROTEST.
Civil Service Commission Will Investi-
 gate Employees in Philippines.

Manila, June 19.-In the matter of the 150 civil employees in Manila who pro- tested to General Macarthur against the fact that the civil service board had not as vet announced whether 1t will or will not require examinations of old em- ployes before these can continue defin- itely in the civil service, Chief Examiner Higgins has answered Colonel Crowder, the military governor, by citing the law under which he requested list of the present civil employees and statements as to their qualifications to continue in their employ This action was taken prepara- tory to settling the question of examin- ation.

THE REGULATION OF RATES
While Waiting For Enactment of Pub lie Ownership Laws New Party Leaders Would Take Transpor-
 tation Companies In Hand.

Kansas City, Mo-, June 19.-The allied third party movement which its promot- CTS hope will result before 1904 in na- tional organization strong enough to name Presidential nominee, was launched here this afternoon. It was the from the ranks of the old parties, and it's principles are said by some to have been adopted to fit the views of William J. Bryan.
 The conference was called by Lee Mer- riwether of St. Louis. who. with twenty two other St. Louis leaders in the pub lie ownership party of that city, came to Kansas City yesterday after visit to MT. Bryan at Lincoln, where the in- tentions of the delegation had been laid before the Nebraska statesman. MT. Bryan, 1t was stated, had expressed sym pathy with the movement if he had not gone so far as to support it. At the con ference there were Populists of all per suasions, public ownership advocates, free silver Republicans, Socialists, single taxers and Bryan Democrats It was stated that it was proposed to form
 
 third party in Missouri which should finally be taken up by the dissatisfied in the old parties from other states. com mittee on organization was appointed and submitted resolutions, which were unanimously adopted. embodying the principle doctrines of the new party. They are in substance public ownership of all public utilities, as railroads, tele- graph. etc.
 While awaiting the legislation necessary to secure public ownership, rigid control of freight and passenger rates and severe penalties for rebates and s<her discrimin- ations by railroads.
 Taxation of railroads and other public utility corporations in the same propor- ton as the value of farm and other property.
 Direct legislation by the initiative and referendum to the end that the people might initiate good legislation and veto bad legislation.
 A graduated income tax to the end that wealth, which received government pro- tection, shall bear its just share of the cost of the government.
 That whatever is used as money shall be full legal tender, issued by the general government in sufficient volume for busi- ness purposes and that volume of fixed proportion to population.
 Just election laws throughout the State. Home rule for cities and abolition os the present system of using the police as standing army to carry out primary elec- tions in the interest of dishonest politi- clans representing still more dishonest special privilege corporations.
 This evening the meeting organized by electing J. H. Cook, fusion Populist chairman; J. H. Hills, middle-of-thre- e- road Populist, vice president, and F. s. Kowalski. public ownership. secretary.
 The committee, besides deciding on the new name of the movement. also decided to call State convention for some time next fall.

AMALGAMATIoN OF RACES.
This Is Solution For Universal Peace
 Declares Edward Everett Hale.

Columbus, Ohio, June Backward Ev- rett Hale delivered the annual address at the Ohio State University commence ment today His subject was, "The Duties of the New Century" Among otheE things he said:
 twill the twentieth century see the American Indian. the negro, the Asiatic and white races living as one nation be- tween the Atlantic and Pacific? How shall the black and white races be brought in accord and harmony? As the children of God. if we choose to elect this duty, we have the power to effect this union of the races and our Anglo-Saxon blood will assert itself in a union of one people with a love for freedom.
 "The accomplishments of this ideal re- uufres permanent peace among the na- lions of the world. The fifty-one nations of the world must agree to submit all their duties to one Supreme Court or the follies of the last sixteen hundred years will be continued. Educated people give too little attention to the POO years of peace early In the Christian era. for to that we owe the civilization of today. It is the duty and opportunity before the young people of the country today to bring about universal peace"

THE BARKER TRIAL.
1t May Go to the Jury Today-Test- mony Excluded, But Jury Heard 1t.

New York, June 19.-The case of Thos. G. Barker, on trial at Jersey City, N. J.. for the shooting of Rev. John Keller may go to the jury tomorrow. Barker and his wife were on the stand today. They told their story, so far as the court would allow answers to the questions of counsel for the defense and, although the record does not show it, MT. Van Wrinkle got reference to the alleged as- saut before the jury in one way and an- other, though the nature of the "as- sault' was not brought out. The wit nesses answered so promptly that objec- tions came a shade late. In this way "the outrage" was referred to several times during the day. The State had 1t striken out each time, but the impress sion went to the jury.
 Barker on the stand told his version of the shooting. He said he met Keller and that Keller spoke to him. This was in di- rect contradiction of Keller's testimony on the stand as he claimed not to have met any one. Barker said he responded to Keller's greeting by calling Keller vil- lain, charging him with outraging Mrs. Barker; he then said he began firing MT Keller, when on the stand, said that not word was spoken and that he saw no one.
 The purpose of Barkers testimony was to show that after having brooded for 0 period over what his wife had told him, he was in a morbid state of mind and when he came face to face with the min ister, he was carried away by feeling and fired; that 1t was sudden, violent and temporary insanity lasting but mo- ment. but long enough to cover the pe- riod of the shooting.
 Mrs Barker was expected to break down and become hysterical on the wit ness stand but cooler woman has sell dom occupied the chair.

PROPHET SMITH
 STRUNG TO A TREE
Mel land Met Same Fate-They Were Charged With Compile
 fly in Foster Murder

Shreveport, La., June 19.-Frank, better known us Prophet" Smith, and F. D. McLand, held at Benton for complicity in the murder of John Gray Foster. were taken out by a mob tonight and strung up to a tree. They were left dangling side by side. The lynching occurred on the Arkansas road about mile and a half from the jail. Both negroes made statements before death, denying that they had anything to do with the killing. Smith, who was at the head of the Church of God' movement in that sec tion and was blamed as being responsible for the sentiment against the whites which led to the death of Foster, died praying. McLand was silent as he was swung up.
 As Smith was being led from the jail prior to the execution he was heard to say:
 Lord, you promised to be with me now.''
 There were about two hundred armed men in the mob, and they overpowered the sheriff and jailer, taking the keys away from them. The lynchers claimed that the execution of these negroes was necessary to the preservation of the lives of white men in this locality.
