Negro Firebugs SURROUNDED In swamp.

Mobile. Ala, April 9.-Two negroes
We're discovered attempting to set fire
to a large store at Bay NIinette, but
escaped Bloodhounds picked up the
trail of the negroes at Hurricane
bayou. The dogs followed the negroes
into the swamp, which is now sur
rounded by Il large force of armed men.
One of the posse, a man named Me-
Gowan, was shot in the arm and leg
by the fleeing men during pistol fight.
His injuries are serious. The country
in the vicinity is highly aroused and
there is little doubt the negroes will
be ,lynched if captured by the posse.
