Jackson, Sept. 15.-Lumber manu-
facturers and exporters on the Mis-
sissippi coast are now having their
own vessels built for foreign trade
and in the near future 1t is probable
that the bulk of the lumber trade
will be carried in home vessels.
SchOoners with from two to seven
masts, and of commensurate beam
and light draft are being constructed
both for the coastwise trade, and for
trips to Mexico, Cuba, South America
and the West Indian ports. These
vessels have II distinct advant-
age over the foreign ships for
they load direct at the landings along
Pascagoula, Pearl and Escatawpa
rivers and have carrying capacity
of from Ito, 900 to 100000 feet ot lum-
Der, making quick trips and being
capable Of withstandIng almost any
kind of weather. The shipyards at
Pascagoula are of sufficient capacity
to overhaul these vessels and make
them seaworthy, and the gulf
ports are fast becoming self-sustain-
ing in providing their own transpor-
tation for the lumber trade. With
improved harbor facilities the
growth of business along the coast
will steadily continue, and the gov
ernment is displaying an inclination
for the betterment of the channels
along the entire course of Mississip-
pi's sea front.

Jackson, Sept. 15-According to
figures jnstcompiled, the cost of the
Matttis-O Owen -Lester-Jackson mur-
der cases in Lafayette county has
already reached the enormous sum
of $I2, 900, and only one of the four
men indicted has commenced his
sentence. Mathis and Lester, how
ever, are to be hanged at Oxford on
the oath of September, and there is
every indication that the death
sentence will yet be fastened on
Owens, the father-in-law of Mathis,
over whom life sentence is now
pending, and indictment is yet to be
tried.
An effort will be made, according
to advices just received, to secure a
pardon for William Jackson, who is
now serving life sentence for COM
plicity in the murder. Jackson is
exonerated by the confession of
Mathis, in which little reliance is
placed, but other evidence has been
adduced to show that he did not
actually participate in the slaughter
of the Montgomery brothers, and
only happened to be at the house of
Mathis when the. deed was commit
ted. Jackson is a criminal of un-
doubted guilt, and has been indicted
for counterfeiting and making moon
shine whiskey, but many citizens
feel that he should not suffer punish
ment for q crime of which be is not

Jackson, Sept. 15.--Some oppositionis is
being developed to the proposed amend
ment to the state constitution providing
fer regular biennial sessions Of the leg
islaiure, instead Of the regular session
and special session as ut present, only
matters recommended by the governor
being discussed at the special sessions.
The amendment is to be voted upon
at the Mover election, and many of
the trainers of the constitution contend
that this clause is one Of the wisest
measures in the document, and if re-
pealed it will result in great mass of
new laws to cucumber the statutes.
many of which will never be enforced.
The original article provides that the
special sessions shall last thirty days,
unless extended by the governor, and
the chief executive is always willing TO
allow legislation on reasonable sub
| ject If a respectable number of legisla-
tors request it.
| On the other hand the supporters Of
the amendment claim that the original
article gives the governor too much
power, and that the representatives. Of
the people when they are assembled to
make laws should be allowed to pass on
any measures that may be suggested.
| Two other amendments to the consti
| tuition are to be voted upon at the No
vembel election, one Of which provides
that constitutional amendment may be
inserted in the document by the same
legislature which proposed it to the peo-
pie, and the other that when q constitu-
tlonal amendment is proposed it shall be
declared carried when it receives
majority OF all the voters casting ballots
on that particular question, instead of
majority of those participating in the
election.
1t is gravely feared that all three of
the amendments will be lost unless
more interest is aroused among the peo-
pie, for it is not likely that twenty five
per cent of the registered vote of the
state will be cast at the November cleo
ton, owing to the fact that 1t is q mere
i ratification OF the democratic primaries
and no contests are being made.

Senatobia, Sept. 15-Phil A. Rush,

A movement has also been placed
on foot at Gloster, in Amite county
for the establishment of a cottor
factory, and committee is in the
field soliciting subscriptions. Sever
al other tswns are discussing similal
enterprises, and the general plar
seems to be to start factories with

A NATIVE MISSISSIPPIAN
Killed in an Automobile Accident in
California,
Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress.
jackson, Sept 15.-Much regret was
expressed throughout Mississippi Satur
day over the press dispatch containing
the announcement that Mrs. Senator
Stewart, of California, was killed in an
automobile accident.
Mrs. Stewart was native Mississip
plan. although she had not visited the
state since childhood. Her father was
Henry 5. Foote, United States senator
from this state from 1877 until 1852
when he resigned the office to run for
governor against jefferson Davis, de
feating the man who afterwards became
president of the confederacy by large
majority in one Of the most bitter cam
paigns that has ever taken place in the
state.
An incident regarding Mrs. Stewart
was recalled few days since by the
promise of her brother. Hon. W. w.
Foote. of San Francisco, to furnish an
oil portrait of his father to be drawn
from an engraving in the possession of
Mrs. Stewart, and to be placed in Mlssis
sissippi's hall of fame. 1t was Mrs.
Stewards influence which indirectly
secured the confirmation of L. @. G.
Lamar as justice of the United States
supreme court. Lamar was the first
confederate soldier to be honored with q
judicial berth by the government, and
much animosity was aroused. Mrs
l Stewart prevailed on her husband t.
: vote for Lamar's confirmation by th'
t senate. aud to use his influence with th,
: other members, and it was this influence
which secured the required majority.
