THE SCHLEY COURT OF INQUI-
RY.

Rear Admiral Schley completed his
story of his connection with the war
with Spain, and what a manly, mod
est, and straightforward story it was!
If there had been no other witness
before the court Schley's story was
so clear and convincing that itshould
have enabled the court to decide
upon its report and recommendations,
which must necessarily be in Schley's
favor. Lemly's cross-examination OF
has been gone through. The
prosecution will probably put sew
eral more witnesses on the stand, and
then the counsel on both sides will
sum up. This will probably consume
the greater part OF a week, and then
the court will consider its verdict, SO
to speak. How long it will consider
is, of course, uncertain, but it should
not take long, and the result should
be known in about ten days.

Some time ago a motorman and an
inspector in the employ of the Car
rollton railroad company had a fight
while in uniform. Being contrary to
the rules of the corporation the men
were discharged. The street car
men demanded the reinstatement of
Holdakowski and the company refus-
ed. Then they went on a strike last
Saturday, lasting till Sunday evening
when they decided to wait the decis-
ion of Holdakowski's case before. the
Criminal Court. If acquitted the
Company will reinstate him.

lNHr'. Bryan,s Paper.l

The Commoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue
a circulation of 100000 copies.a record
probably never egaaled in the history
OF American periodical literature.
The unparalleled growth of this paper
demonstrates that there is room ia the
newspaper field for a national pap
devoted to the discussion of political
economic, and social problems. To the
columns of The Commoner Mr.. Bry an
contributes his best efforts; and his
review of political events as they arise
from time to time can not fail to inter
est those who study public questions.
The Commoner's regular subscrip-
zion price is $1.0 per year. We have
arranged with Mr.. Bryan whereby we
can furnish his paper and THE
MERdDIoNAL together for one year far.

OF the two papers when subscribed for
is $500.

RACE WAR IN WASHINGTON
PARISH.

A terrible, bloody encounter took
place last Sunday in the northeast
corner of Washington parish. 1t was
somewhat similar in origin results to
the Free Town riot which occurred
some years ago near Royville.
Briefly the story is told as follows:
One white man dead, one fatally
wounded and expected to die mo-
mentarily and a third seriously shot,
with thirteen negroes dead and a
score or more in the bush wounded
and MANNED, tell in q few words the
immediate result of the race war that
broke out at the Duncan chapel camp
meeting in Washington parish, Sun
day afternoon. A fierce, bloody battle
ragged for several minutes. VIM
chesters, shotguns and pistols we're
used.
The outbreak came with an over
wrought public sentiment over the
fiendish assault of Bill Morris a black
on Mrs. j. A. Ball last week, and
bis subsequent burning at the stake,
and the trouble over the collecting
license dues at the camp meeting.
Crear Lott offered resistance, Frank
Farmer struck a white man named
Walker over the head with a bottle
during the disturbance, and that
brought out a warrant and the quick
work of a posse of armed men.
For a day it looked like a general
determination of the blacks in the
s'Free state of louisiana"
Sheriff Simmons and Clerk of the
Court Johnson hurried to the scene
on Monday with a posse of deputies.
Governors Longino and Heard offer
ed the assistance of troops. One
armed men from the coun-
try poured into Balltown, Otis and
Liveoak.
Then quiet was restored. The
blacks fled from the parish, and are
Pu~hlic-spirited citizens do
lear further trouble.
Peace reigns at Duncan's chapel,
after three days of anxiety, suspense
md excitement. Three freshly dug
,ravCs hold the bodies of the blacks
five men, three women and a child
under the cave of the church.
The citizens of Otis and Liveaok
leld a mass meeting, and sent a COM
nittee to the chapel. The negroes
eplied they had enough.
State troops have been ordered
urned back, and the bloody encoun-
er OF the races unprecedented in the !;
lstory of that section, is believed to
at an end.
