BANKERS TO MEET HERE.

There may be some of the readers
of the Progress who have overlooked
the fact that the state bankers asso-
citation will meet in Hattiesburg on
the 18th of the present month. The
indications are that there will be a
large attendance of the bankers from
all over the state and the local banks
are making every necessary arrange
ment to entertain them. The cash
iers of the three banks here have given
notice that their banks will be closed
on that day and the employees OF the
banks will give their time and atten-
ton to the entertainment of the visi-
tors.
These banks are, generally speak
ing, the business brains of the state.
They dictate and lay plans for the
successful handling of the money that
circulates in the state and are ever
ready to open their barrels whenever
there is depression in money mat
tiers. They are careful, cautious. at
the same time accommodating to
their friends and patrons. All of them
are heightened gentlemen, strictly
honest or they could not successfully
carry on the banking business, and
their meeting here should be hailed
with delight and the greatest courtesy
and hospitality should be shown
them by all of our citizens. 1t is
hoped Hattiesbrug will show them
the attention they certainly
it will never lose anything if it sees
no immediate gain.

The case of Policeman Beverly VS..
the city of Hattiesburg for the pay
ment of salary as policeman, which
was test case, was decided in favor OF
the city and the other case where the
board of aldermen elected police JUS
tice, but which election was not recog-
nized by the mayor, was decided III
the same manner. 1t is stated that
the police case will be taken to the
supreme court In this case, when
tried in the justice court, the decis-
ion of Judge Robertson was against
the city, giving the policeman judg-
ment, but it seems that this was de-
cided to the contrary by the circuit
court, in the appeal case taken by
the city. AS the case now goes to
the supreme court there is no definite
time when the case may be expected
to be decided.

MOTORMAN RUNS BLAZING CAR
While Passengers Shout in Terror
Many Jumped and Were
Seriously Injured.

New York, May l1.-Through the
burning out of fuse under a rapidly
running open car on the Third
avenue line last night, a blaze was
started which spread rapidly and
quickly enveloped the car. The mo-
torman, despite the cries of the sixty
or more passengers to stop before
they were burned to death, put on
full power and those on board began
to Jump from the car. The cOnduc-
tor was one of the first to jump.
After running the car at full speed
for three quarters of mile, the mo-
torman apparently realized that his
own life was threatened by the fierce
flames. He shut off his power,
jammed, down the brake and leaped
o f amid the indignant outcries of a
large crowd which had gathered.
Nearly every one of the passengers
was more or less seriously hurt.

Every day we see more and more the
necessity of a reformatOry for the
youth of the state. Every day we
hear of thievery, robbery and some
times murder committed by young
men and boys of the state. Compare
lively crime has increased perhaps
fifty per cent among the younger elias
ses of the state within the past twenty
five wears or since the introduction OF
the cigarette. Not only that, but 1t
is stated that many white young men
and very large number of negroes
use cocaine and thus their brain and
mind become blank and they are not
really resopnsl bic for what uney 90.
If the state had reformatory many
of these young men could be saved,
but instead of this they commit crime
and are sent to the convict farm with
the hardened criminals where their
whole nature is more deedply dyed
with the infamy of the most horrible
crimes known to the human race. The
next legislature should take up this
matter. The necessity of it is seen
every day and every day the crimes
grow more numerous.

SECOND MISTRIAL
In the Case of Mrs. Frank of New
Orleans, Against Pullman
Place Car Co.
Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, May 12.-For a second
time mistrIal was entered in the
federal court yesterday afternoon In
the case of Mrs. E. II. Frank of New
Orleans against the Pullman Palace
Car Company for injuries which she
claims to have sustained lifting
from one of the cars of the company.
At the last term of court the mis-
trial was due to very remarkable
fact. One of the jurymen thought
that the lady should have eighteen
thousand dollars damages, while the
other members thought twelve was
the proper amount. The jury favor
ing eighteen thousand would not
give in and mistriai was the result
The jury this time have been out
since Thursday afternoon and their
inability to agree as to the amount
was the cause of no verdict being
| reached.

BEING TRIED FOR MURDER.
R. H. Rodgers, for the Killing of
Tom Boyd of Neshoba
County.
special to the Daily Progress

special to the Daily Progress
Jackson, MAY H. The supreme
court of Mississippi is this afternoon
listening to the argument In the case
or IL. ii. Rodgers, who was indicted
along with B. w. George, for the
killing of Tom Byrd, brother of Con-
gresham elect Byrd of Neshoba
county.
The killing occurred on the % of
September, 1901, at Philadelphia,
Miss, and occasioned great deal of
eXcitment at the time.
Rodgers was convicted in the
lower court and announcement of an
appeal was Immediately made.
George has never been, tried as it
is a well established rule of law that
you cannot try man during his alb
sence, and George has been very
much absent since the shooting
making his escape and letting no one
know where he was going.
The case was argued by Judge
Thomas Woods of Meridian for the
state. He was followed by Attorney
General Williams and his assistant
Mr.. Flowers. The defense was repre-
sented in the trial by l.. M. South
worth of Carrolton and S. A

NEW LINE OF RAILROAD

Shreveport, La, May 8. = The
Shreveport and Red River Valley rail
road was re-incorporated today under
the name of the Louisiana Railroad
and Navigation company. William
Edenborn is the president. The new
concern is capitalized at twelve mill
ions of dollars. 1t will Immediately
begin the construction of its road to
New Orleans, via Baton Rouge, and
has thhe right under the charter to
extend its tracks to the gulf of Mexico.
The company is also authorized to op-
crate steam craft in domestic and for
eign trade. 1t is thought that this
means another line of steamships for
New Orleans.
