"One phase OF vagrancy infects great

NEGRO CARRIER STOPPED
Warned Not to Continue in Service Un
der Penalty of Death-Postmaster
General Has Ordered Thor
ough investigation Of Affair.
(By Associated Press. J

+ WASHINGTON, D. c., May 1.-THE
Postoftice Department was notified OIL
cially to-day that John c. Allgood. a col
ored rural delivery letter carrier, while
making his regular trip near Gallatin,
Tenn, was stopped by men armed and
masked, and that he and his colored sub
stitute carrier were warned not to con-
tipue in tho service under penalty Of
death. Postmaster-General Payne has
suspended service on the route, pending
Investigation, and II the reports OF the
affair are confirmed summary action Will
follow The incident may become sec
ond 1ndianola case. The news of the at
fair reached the Postmaster-Generali to-
day in a telegram from Postmaster H..
Swaney, of Gallatin.
The rural carrier route was put IN ERECT
March LIST last. There were five appll-
cants under the civil service rules. for
arpointment as rural carrier. The three
mer passing the highest on the list were
all colored Under the civil service rules
the Postmaster-G General says there is no
option with the department except TO
appoint the person who stands highest
on the list; therefore. Allen +. Diilard,
colored. was appointed. He resigned
about three weeks ago. and on the zoth
OF last month the Civil Service Board GER
tif,ed the second man on the list, John
Allgood, colored.
POSTMASTER C eneral Payne later said II
the facts were as reported only Two
courses Of action would be open. namely:
TO abolish the route and leave the people
thereon without that service. or to send
soldiers to the scene to protect the car
rler in the performance Of his duty. MT.
Payne said the former course was the
more probable. He called attention to the
civil service status of the carriers, ana
said that the appointees were secured
through the Civil Service Commission
their selection, therefore, not being OPP
tional with him.
It is said at the department that the
penalties provided by law for such OF.
lenses are covered In sections 1868 and
$685. of the revised statutes. mo former
reads as follows:
every person who wilfully and mall.
cJcusly assaults any letter carrier who is
In uniform while engaged on his route II
the discharge of his duty as a letter car
ricr, and every person who wilfully aids
or assists therein shall for every sucf
offense be punishable by fine of not less
than 500 and not more than $1,000 or b,
Imprisonment for not less than one yea
and not more than three years"
The other section provides that IAN,
person who shall knowingly and wilfull!
obstruct or retard the passage OF mai
carrier shall for every such offense b.
punishable by fine of not more thar
$780,"
1t is pointed out that the difference be
tween these penalties hinges on the wear

# REDLANDs. CAL. May 7.-President
Roosevelt was formally welcomed to Cal
ifornia to-day before crowd estimated
at ten thousand. The enthusiasm dis
played must have reminded the guest in
whose honor the demonstration had been
planned. that California's hospitality
really was what he cared 1t to be. At the
east side Of the grounds Company G,
California National Guard. was stationed.
The New York society was at the south
and along the west side were the Y. NJ.
c. a. cadets In uniforms. On the corner
opposite the balcony from which the
President spoke, 1900 school children
were seated on grandstand. AS the
President approached each OF the chill
drcn waved a flag and then their young
voices were often raised In cheers. They
also sang the National airs. President
Roosevelt was welcomed to the State by
Governor Pardee and others.
The great throng cheered itself hoarse
when the President arose to deliver his
address. He-spoke on Irrigation and good
citizensmp and praised the beauty Of
California. The party left here at
o. clock for San Bernardlno, where q
short stop was made. The night will be

OF the present status Of the investigation
of the lynchings Of Italians at Erwin.
Miss, in July. 1901. Under Foreign Sec
rotary Baccelli said that in spite Of the
activity of Italian consular and sdiplo-
matte officials. no convictions had been
secured. owing to the reticence of wit
snesses, who persisted in declining to make
dispositions.
Sgnor Baccelli said the American Con-
gress had voted $4,000 for the families
Of the victims, but to this measure the
Italian government remained a stranger,
as it could not admit a price for blood,
although it would not force the injured
parties to refuse the indemnity.

Protestant Denominations Outranked
by Jews and Catholics.

New York World.
In the Federation, the quarterly organ of
the Federation of Churches and Christian
organizations in New York city, is given
the result of an investigation into race
suicide by the executive secretary, DIR.
Walter Laildaw, who says:
THAT religion may have directly to do
with the question of race suicide has been
illustrated by the sociological studies of
the federation. The material collected on
both the East and West sides of Manhat-
tan and in various wards of Brooklyn dur
ing the past seven years and the exception
al equipment for handling it, have made it
possible to prepare a careful study of the
subject.
1.-The average number of children III the
Protestant families is lS5, In the Roman
Catholic 203 and in the Hebrew 2.H child
rem. Only 1876 per cent. of the Hebrews are
without children. whereas 1913 per cent. Of
the Protestants are without children. 1t
should be noticed that six times as many
Hebrew families have nine children as have
the Protestant families; and that for every
Protestant family with eight children there
are proportionately four Hebrew and twice
as many with seven children. At the other
end of the table 1t appears that the proper
ton Of Protestant families with but one
or two children is larger than that of the
Hebrew families with one or two children
Among the Protestant communions
there are several whose average of chill
dren is higher than the Roman Catholic
average, notably the Episcopalian and Pres
byterian, but, excepting the Free Metho-
dists, there is not single Protestant COM
munion in which the average is as high as
the Hebrew"
