GAMMONS HAS
TOLD OF CRIME
TO THE SHERIFF OF YALOBU-
SHA COUNTY.
A MOST HORRIBLE DEED.
Says He Killed His Sweetheart S
Father and After the Deed Asked
Her to Elope With Him, Then Shot
r-Story Not Believed.

Sheriff G. w. Price, of Yalobusha
county, accompanied by two deputies,
has held lengthy conference at the
Jackson Jail with Albert Gammons,
the double murderer, and obtained
from him a full confession of the
atrocious crime which created such
sensation. Only the sheriff and his
two deputies were present at the con-
ference. The statement was not taken
down in writing, but the two deputies
were present for the purpose of act
ing as witnesses, and will testify to
what the prisoner said when his race
is called for trial at Water Valley in
June. Gammons gave a new and very
sensational version of the killing of
Mr.. Kimsey and daughter during his
conference with the officers. He stat
ed that after he had killed Nj. Kim
sey and went to the house and told
Miss Kimsey what he had done, he
then proposed to the girl that she
elope with him, which she consented
to do. Afterwards Gammons says, the
girl changed, her mind and told him
that as he had killed her father he
might as well kill her, and that she
tried to take the pistol away from him
for the purpose of committing suicide
which he refused to allow her to do.
Miss kimsey, according to Gammons,
continued to plead with him to kill
her, and he finally consented to do
so IT she would turn her back to him.
When she did so he fired three shots
through her body. This version of
the killing is not believed. The of
ficers think that Gammons deliberate
ly lied at this juncture, but even if
he has done so, the confession made as
to the other details is sufficient to as
sure his conviction Gammons states
that he has not yet employed an at
torney and has not decided upon any
lawyer to defend him at the trial.

Recognizing wider sphere for her
energies in the war between Russia

covered superhuman qualities in the

This was duly represented to head

With roar that was heard for
miles the Mississippi river has cut
through Killicranky Neck, in Davis

Mississippi mainland and resumed its
old channel through what in former
years had been known as Lake Pal
myra. incidentally, several valuable
cotton plantations were practically
ruined. The neck of land through
which the river cut to regain pos

about 500 yards wide Davis bend is
twenty miles south of Vicksburg. The

an engagement with Admiral Togo s
feet at Port Arthur. She was sunk
and nearly all of the men aboard, to-

were drowned. Grand Duke Cyril was
rescued, it is reported
A battle was going on with Togo
under command of the Second Officer
in command, but news Of it was hard
to get. The censors have been sitting

hitting a mine.

The Russian cruiser Bayan has been

Grand Duke Civil is worse hurt than

dead.
A story from Rome reached Lon

Admiral Dubassof may succeed Ad-
miral Makaroff in command in the Far
East.
President Loubet sent condolences
to Russia; these follow the theory of
an accident.
The Russian torpedo boat Bezstra-
shi was sunk by the japanese, with
forty-five men.
An official report says the Japa-

Arthur before the battle.
Damage to the Pobieda at Port Ar

been caused by mine. The Pobieda
is battleship of over 10000 tons.

SULLY AGAIN IN THE FIELD.
Bear Raid Checked Through His In
fiuence.

New York-Sully, the dethroned
cotton king, has secured financial as
sistance from some unknown quarter,
and is once more proving a prominent
factor in the market. Under his dom
ineering influence the bear raid was
summarily checked, and an advance of
from eight to ten points is shown on
old crop months.
1t has developed that several of
Sully's largest creditors did not lose
a cent on the big crash, having went
short on the market just before the
market slumped, and this factor, to-
gether with the old New Orleans bull
clique, has joined in movement to
support the market.

Oil Mill Prospered.

After very profitable season, de-
spite the high price of seed, the cot
ton oil mills of the state are now clos
ing down until next September. Two
of the large mills in jackson have al
ready closed down, and two others
will quit about the last of the month.
One of the prime causes for the good
margin of profit during the season
now drawing to close was the fine
quality of seed, very few seed being
damaged by wet weather, and the crop
was picked unusually early. About
twelve new oil mills will be estab-
lished in Mississippi before the begin
