TOBACCO MONOPOLY.
Will Go Into Effect on July-Lib-
eral Offer.

Tokio.-The proposed law relating
to the Government tobacco monopoly
if enacted will 60 into effect on the LIST
of next July. The manufacture or
sale of japanese cut tobacco will be
allowed to continue until April 10.
The government proposes to have the
stocks, machines and plants existing
on June 80 next appraised by joint
appraisers. AS compensation for their
"good Wi" the Government proposes
to pay the manufacturers and dealers
a sum equal to their income for three
years as shown by their books. The
sum which will be required to launch
the monopoly has not yet been deter
mined, but the Government proposes
to make large payment in bonds. 1t
is thought the only new customs duty
will be on sugar. Unless the conven-
tional tariffs interfere, it is probable
that tariff will be levied on wooden

TUESDAY.

The most interesting thing in the
House this afternoon was the decision
of Speaker Thomas to the effect that
it was permissible for the House to
reconsider its vote on the Holly
Springs Normal Bill, which the gov
ernor vetoed, and which failed to pass
over his veto at The morning session.
This opens up the question for to-mor-
row, and it is stated tonight that on
tomorrow the vote whereby the veto
was not sustained will be called up
and another attempt will be made to
pass the bill. The veto message and
the action of the House to-day is all
the talk Of the city, and added inter
est is being lent to the affair by reason
of the fact that it is to come up again

AMERICAN ToBAccoINTEREsTs
Minister Griscom Doing His Best to
Protect Them.

Washington. United States Minis
ter Griscom, at Toxic, is acting under
the instructions Of the State Depart
ment in endeavoring to impress upon
the japanese Government the proprie-
ty of protecting the considerable
American investments in tobacco
manufactures, in the preparation OF
the new tobacco monopoly scheme. In
so doing, the Minister is following up
the procedure he adopted in securing
the restitution of losses suffered by
American whisky exporters. In the
case of the tobacco factories operated
by American capital in Japan the
Japanese Government already has sig
nifed willingness to pay for the fac
tories and goods on hand, and what
Mr.. Griscom is now trying to do is to
secure proper allowance for the good
will and business about to be surren-
dered.

WhitecapS Convicted.

Helena, Ark. The jury in the Fed
eral Court brought in a verdict of
guilty against three Of the Poinsett
County whitecaps and released the re-
naming twelve. The convicted men
are believed by the jury to have been
the ringleaders in the mob that COM
PEELED a lot Of negro workmen to
leave the saw mill of Davis & Hodges,
near Whitehall, Poinsett County. Up
on the completion of the Poinsett
County case, the case against eleven
Cross County men charged with the
same offense, was begun. The cases
from Cross County are almost identi-
cal with the one from Poinsett, only
more serious, in that murder is alleg-
ed to have been committed by the
Cross County men, who are charged
with having killed J. H. Brown, a
private detective Of Memphis, who
was Investigating the whitecap out
RACES when he met his death.

FRIDAY.

This afternoon the Senate passed
the House Bill confirming the merger
of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad with
the Southern. This bill was debated
nearly all the morning, and in some
respects the debate was the most
acrimonious that has taken place dur
ing the session. Former Attorney
Gneral McClurg came in for some crit
icism at the hands Of the opponents
of the bill.
The House this afternoon elected J.
II. Sharpe, of Lowndes, as its member
of the commission to build the new
Deaf and Dumb Asylum, and the SEN
ate elected l.. +. Chiles, of this city, as
its member. Both the Senate and
House passed number Of local bills
this afternoon.
The House this morning again re-
fused to pass the boundary fee bill.
The bill was reconsidered by the
House on a motion of Mr.. Brown, of
Adams, and an amendment offered,
but when it came to pass it failed to
receive the constitutional majority
There seems little hope for the pass
age of the bill during the present ses-
sion, and the attorneys will have to
wait two years and see what the legis-
lature will do then. In the meantime
the suit will have been decided.

SATURDAY.

The afternoon trains carried num-
Der of the Mississippi lawmakers to
their homes. Though the session will
not be brought to close until Tues
day at l o'clock, the members real
lie that no business of Importance
IS to be transacted during Monday
and Tuesday, the only object of the
OF the meeting being to allow the
speaker and president to sign the bills
that have been favorably acted upon,
and those who had business at home
that demanded their presence and at
itention left on the first evening
trains.
All legislation was finished today,
what measures have now not been
disposed of are dead. 1t is highly
probable that there will not be a
working quorum present Monday or
Tuesday, but as any number can meet
and adjourn, this is all that is neces-
sary and all that is desired to keep
the journal and records of the session
straight. Monday afternoon and
Tuesday morning there will be the
usual social meetings, presentation of
presents to presiding officers, and 9TH
ers, farewell partings and funmaking.
The Senate this morning, after a
lengthy debate, declined to reconsid-
er the vote on the merger bill author
izing the merger Of the M. and O.,
and Southern roads.
The Senate and House today passed
the resolution authorizing the sale of
the lands bought by the trustees of the
state hospital for the insane, about
which so much has been said and so
many reports made.

Governors Veto Sustained.

There was no vote In the House this
morning on the governor S veto of the
Holly Springs Normal Bill, as it was
supposed there would be, from the
ruling made by the Speaker at the
session yesterday afternoon. The
Speaker reversed himself and an
nounced that motion to reconsider
the vote was not in order This ends
the matter, and the school is not like
ly to get any appropriation.
A point has been raised in regard
to the passage of the Uniform Text
book Bill which gives promise of COM
plicating matters considerably, and
which, if carried to the floor of the
Senate, may result in a reconsidera-
ton of the bill and it's defeat,
which the schoolbook lobbyists are so
much bent on. On Monday the SEN
ate Conference Committee reported
back to that body that it had con-
Cured in the House amendments to
the Senate bill, and this report was
adopted and the measure passed. Now
the point is made that the Senate
Committee did not concur in but one
OF the amendments to the bill made by
the House, and that touching the per-
sonnet of the amendments, it is claim
ed, were not considered and were not
included in the report of the Com
mittee. Therefore, the Senate could
not have concurred in them. There
is a strong probability that this point
will be raised on the floor of the SEN
ate, and the uniform textbook meas
ure, over which so much labor has
been spent, may yet fail to become a
law
