week in search Of an attractive place
for d weeks outing with his wife and

company took him up to the canyon
of the Gallinas and left his pleasant
ly located in camp there.
AS Mr.. Jackson was fishing along
the river on Wednesday an indiyidua.
lstrolled along and injured how fish
ing was. MIR. Jackson said he was
having pretty fair luck and produced
a string of a dozen fish to substan
ttiate the statement. The individual
~thereupon fell upon the string of fisl
with a tape line and began measur
ing them. When he had concluded
, he said several OF the fish were I'm
i DIRE size and he would have to repor
him. Mr.. Jackson said he was ignor
ant of the fact that there was an,
particular size limit but he would b
perfectly willing to throw back an.
of the fish which we're too small.
The stranger, who was gam,
warden VIM. Steadman, said it wa
too late as the fish were dead Or to-
NEARLY to dead to revive. Mr.. Jack
son expressed his regret at hayin,
violated the law of which he wa
quite ignorant and said he would b
careful to throw back any under
sized fish he hooked in the future
That was not what the game wardel
wanted, however, and he informe'
Mr.. jackson that he would have t

Jackson was up before Judge Woosl

They were husband and wife, plain,

TO GET AT
SULLY'S HACKERS
HIS CREDITORS WANT THEM
no MAKE GOOD THE DEBTS OF THE
SUSPENDED FIRM.

Receiver Taft Thinks SuIIy Could
Do Better Than His 40 Per Cent.
Cash-6O Per Cent. Notes ORer-A
New Offer from the Firm Is Ex-
pected-In the Meantime Efforts
Are AfOOt to Discover SuIly's ST.
lent Partners.
New York. March 24.-That D. ].
Eully & Co. would be able to do a
good deal better than to- offer 40 per
cent. cash and so per cent. in notes to
the creditors, was the belief expressed
by Receiver Taft to-day, and a new
offer from the suspended firm is ex-
pected.
Samuel Untermyer, who is counsel
for number of Sully's creditors, said
to-day:
1--WE demand and intend to get the
history of Sully's cotton transactions.
We want the fullest exposure of the
facts. Nothing else will satisfy"
Want to Know His Backers.
Many of Sully's creditors are hoping
that he will reveal the identity of his
hackers in the last pool. All of his
associates are said to be men who
could settle with the creditors.
Receivers Taft and Miller do not ex-
pect to learn of these hackers from
Sully, but Mr.. Taft says that the books
may reveal enough to show that GER
tain silent partners were under obli-
cations to stand the loss. If it. can be
found that such obligations exist steps
will be taken to make them pay 100
cents on the dollar. Sully still stands
ready to pay his creditors 40 cents on
/ the dollar in cash and so cents in long
time notes, but most of the creditors
| expect better results than that through
1 the receivers.
A conference lasting half an hour
L was held to-day in Sullys Office be-
[ tween Receivers Taft and Miller and
B r. Seidenburg, George Chapman, Supt.
Stroud of the Coffee Exchange, Elk
! pert Accountant Cuthbert, who has
| been at work on the books of the Sully
1 firm, and Boothby & Baldwin, counsel
i for the petitioning creditors. None of
| the parties to the conference would
make any statement.
Committee of Creditors.
A meeting of the creditors of Daniel
j. Sully & Co. was held this afternoon.
1t was Cdlleu at lne request OF the
receivers for the purpose of having a
committee named to represent the gen.
eral body of creditors in dealing with
the receiver.
The meeting adopted a resolution
Ngiving President MacDougal of the
Cotton Exchange the power to appoint
this committee, after which adjourn
Hment was taken. Mr.. MacDougal ap-
Hpointed the following committee:

II is hard TO suit some people For a long
time some Of our Southern friends have been
abusing the President the ground that he
was TOO friendly 10 the negro. A few days ago
The Charleston News and Courier" was reioic-
ing in a letter written by ex Governor y. H
Chamberlain, formerly the leader Of South
Carolina carpet bag misrule. now the critic
of the negro's aspirations even TO enjoy equal
civil and political rights his individual
merits Mr.. Chamberlain bitterly complained
that the white friends Of the negro were not
sufficiently jealous in impressng upon him the
atrocious nature Of attacks on white women
Our Southern friends. every time a Northerner
condemned lynching, have declared that he sym
pathized with brutal negroes, and even when
they deprecated lynching themselves have urged
that the legal punishment Of negro ravishers be
made more sure and speedy. Southern Gov
ernors have been thought patriots for hurrying
up trials and executions and officials like those
in Wilmington have been denounced for refusing
10 let Justice depart from her regular pace. Yet
now all is changed, If you don't want to be
denounced in the South, don't say a word in
reprObation Of the unspeakabe crime
President Roosevelt the other day refused to
commute the death sentence of a Washington
negro convicted Of assaulting a white child. In
his memorandum he repeated what every South
ern paper had said, that lynching sprang from
this crime. intmated that the authorities by
dealing leniently with it, should not encourage
the mob spirit, and favored more summary legal
methods Of dealing with such cases He also
included a word for the benefit Of the negroes
who are taught by the Southern newspapers
and politicians to look upon him as their spe-
cial friend: 1T is a crime so revolving that the
criminal is not entitled to one particle Of sym
''pathy from any human being" Now, It might
be thought that every Southerner would ap-
prove such declaration. But no! Mr. Hemp
hill so hates the President-though If DR.. Al
bert Shaw is right his hatred was an after
thought born OF expediency-that in the alb
senee Of any other material for abuse he de-
nOunces him for this 1.-THE Charleston News

The voice of the President will be regarded by
the mob all over the country invitation to

that the more we do what in Us lies TO secure
