Montgomery, April 26.-(Special)-The Coal Barons were again defeated this af- ternoon by the Legislators by a score of 6 to 2. Carter, the Legislators pitcher, was a puzzle that the Coal Barons could not solve. They only got three hits off his delivery. The Ccal Barons played an er- rorless game, but the wildness of Minehan in the sixth inning put them to the bad. The game stood to in favor of the Coal Barons up to this inning. Minehan had been pitching great ball. Molesworth was given a free pass as was Schwartz, Durrett and lansing, forcing in Moles- worth Delahanty landed on to one and placed it in center; then Stickney put one in left. Manners was knocked in the head by Minehan and put out of the game, and Molesworth put one into deep left Tor two bags, making a total of six runs in this inning. This was the only inning the Legislators were allowed to score.
 Birmingham Scores.
 In the fifth inning Birmingham made her only two scores. Hanley hit one to short which Delahanty juggled. O'Brien went out to first. Mullany hit to left for two bags scoring Hanley. Mnehan hit an easy one down third base line, but lansing threw wild to first and Mullany scored.
 Pabst had to retire from the game in the first of the fifth on account of being ill Manners took his place and stayed in the game until the sixth when Minne- han knocked him out with hot one to the head. Durrett was put on first and Busch in left. This did not seem to weaken the team in the least. Minnehan pitched great ball with the exception Of this one inning. He never gave another base on balls. He seemed to be rattled at the noise and hoots from the bleach CTS. The afternoon was exceedingly cold and damp but notwithstanding this the game was fast.
 Carter pitched a beautiful game and was steady at all stages. Umpire Bailey was considerably off in some of his de- eisions on balls and strikes Lynch play ed star ball for the Coal Barons. The Coal Barons would have won the game had it not been for the fact that Minne- han went up into the air in the sixth in- ming.
 The sensation of the game was Busch's catch of Hanley's hot line drive to left in the ninth inning.

ia Democratic State Convention unan-
inously selected w. J.. Bryan to head
the delegation to the national gather
ing at st. Louis, and adopted a plat
form which re-affirms the Kansas City

should be embodied in the platform OF
the coming national convention. Mr..
Bryan was himself chairman OF the
committee on resolutions, and wrote
the platform. He had associated with
men who have been his most loyal
supporters. There was no opposition to
the adoption of the platform as read,
although one delegate attempted to Sc
cure the adoption of an additional
plank pledging Nebraska Democracy to
support the nominees Of the st. Louis
convention, regardless Of whom they
might be. He was ruled out OF ORDER
however, afterdhe reading his resolu-
ton. The delegation is uninstructed,
but is pledged to the unit rule. A reso-
luton expressing confidence in Mr..

FIVE KILLED SINCE THURSDAY
A planter and his Manager Attacked
In their Store and Killed by Two
Negroes One of Whom was Taken
From Jail and Lynched and (. the
Other Shot Down While Attempting
A Second Murder.

Greenville, Miss, Specials the re-
suit of fight which occurred on the
Sims & Williams plantation at Trail
Lake, Miss, thirty miles east of here,
Thursday night, John Sims and his
manager, named Cato, were killed by
negroes, and three of the negroes have
heen killed also. The country is in a
state of intense excitement, and it is
feared further trouble may ensue be-
tween the whites and blacks.
The slaughter started about lo
o'clock, when Sims and Cato were shot
down in their store by negro named
Sam Clark. Sims was engaged in check
ing up his cash, when Clark came in.
nefore he could make any kind of move
Clark raised Winchester and fired,
the shot taking effect, first In the back
and then breaking the collar-bone. He
died instantly.
Clark Immediately turned on Cato,
the manager, who was in another part
of the store, and shot him in the right
side, the ball coming out on the lett
side. Cato staggered out to the back
of the store, and as he reached the door
a negro convict guard named Van
Horn, who was in waiting, struck him
over the head with rife. Cato died
at Z o'clock this morning, and the phy-
sician gives it as his opinion that the
blow over the head caused his death.
News of the tragedy was immediate
" sent to Greenville, and Sheriff John
Crouch, with a posse, went to the
scene.
The negroes, Van Horn and clark,
had made their escape before the posse
arrival, but the trial Of Van Horn was
found and he was tracked about a
quarter of a mile into the woods. Here
another negro convict guard named
Mayfeld interfered with the posse, and
he was shot down in his tracks.
Van Horn was captured and taken to
Leland, fourteen miles distant, where
he was placed in Jail. He remained IN
jail all night under strong guard, and
at $3.50 o'clock Friday morning he was
taken out and lynched by mob.
While the sheriff and posse were
busy with Van Horn the other negro,
Sam Clark, returned to the Sims store
witIh--tthc intention, it is supposed, OF
Killing Buck Williams the other-paft-
ner; the book-keepsrr~hamed Grow,
who was also at work and Cihers.
Grow, however, after the previous
shooting, had armed himself and a
negro WAC worked about the place
named Aaron Fuller. When Clark
made his appearance he was shot and
killed by both Crow and Fuller. It
|SisSbelieyed at; Trail Lake that, the
shooting is the outcome Of a meeting
held in the vicinity Of Trail Lake by
a negro secret society, and that the
negroes involved were picked out to
| Go the killing.
