CAUGHT IN INDIAN TERRITORY
Slayer cf John Iawl:y VII Be
 Brought 10 Al .b.ma.

Montevallo, Feb. 3.-(Special. )-Larkin Johnson, a negro, who March 2, 1903, shot and instantly killed John Lawley, prom inent farmer, near Montevallo. and made his escape, is under arrest at Krebs, |. T.. and to the officers there has confessed his crime.
 A few days ago Mayor J. M. Reynolds of MontevallO, received a telegram from M. D. Reed, Mayor of Krebs, asking if Johnson was wanted here for murder, and If there was a reward for his apprehen- sion. On being informed that such waI the case, another telegram reached here last night, saying Johnson had been ar rested and that he had confessed to kill ing a man here a year ago. Mayor Reed also telegraphed that If the reward offered was deposited in the bank he would start at once for Montevallo with the prisoner. The people of Montevallo had offered a reward of $I0O and Governor Jelks, for the State. offered S2OO Today Captain H. c. Reynolds guaranteed the local bank the amount offered here, and wired the Governor to telegraph Mayor Reed at Krebs, that the State would pay the re. ward 1t had offered. An officer will leave Krebs with tho prisoner. and will arrive in Montevallo some time Monday.
 The crime for which Johnson Is wanted Is coid-blooded murder. He and two oth- CT negroes were out hunting. and had got ten onto the farm of John Lawley. The following. which is the dying statement of Mir. Lawley tells the story:
 T told the negroes my farm was post ed and that they could not hunt upon it that they must leave at once. One of them (Johnson) was standing above me on the hill side. and with a gun in his hand. He said 1t was none of my - business: that he would hunt just where he d-d pleased and that I could not stop him. I started toward him-he was but a few steps away-when he threw up his gun and fired. l Was unarmed, did not hav0 even club or a stone in my hands. know that am dying, but what I have here stated is the truth" Mir. Lawley received in his breast the contents of both barrels of the shot gun.
 Ten minutes after making the above statement to two of his neighbors, Mir. Lawley was a corpse, Johnson made his escape, but was followed as far as Piper in Bibb County and there all trace of him was lost. Since that time nothing has been heard of him until the telegram came from the authorities in the Indian Territory. three days ago.
 John Lawley. the murdered man. was an ex-Confederate soldier; was an old com rade of Captain Reynolds with whom he had been on many a scout during the civil war while under General Joe Wheel CT.

"At Mineral Springs there are innumerable openings already and the daily production Is over. 30oO tons. New mines are being opened almost weekly in that immediate section. Around Llttleton there are several openings all ready producing coal and several about +o be opened. -'
 The development some years apo around Pratt Mines and Coalburg caus- ed much comment, but 1t is no compar- lson to the development that is going on in the coal fields on tn North Alabama Railroad. From Cunningham, on the main line of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. and even up to Hanceville, oO"H to IdIueIOn, ana to the western part of the county on the Frisco System, there is no estimating the amount being expended in the coal development now under way or intended. There will be fifty new mines to be reported shortly, if not more, and all of them through their natural location will be able to procure good and staple coal. So far the mines In operation appear to be able to sell all the coal they can get and efforts are be- ing made to increase the output.
 Mineral Springs Is a great place ai- ready, and 1t is growing wonderfully. It is located by the side of a large noun tain. and the openings there are in drifts which make the coal production easier than the other kind of mines. There will be slopes and possibly shafts before long out in the western part of the county look for the greatest development in the western part of Jefferson County as far as coal goes ever heard of in the South" !"
 It is understood that there is very lit tie coal lands left in the western part of Jefferson County to be purchased at reasonable prices. but efforts are being made to get such property as is offered at good prices.

 The sporting element of Birmingham Is again wrought up over the issuance of a number of warrants charging vagrancy under the. new law which are being served by the. sherIffs forces. It de- velopes that the men against whom the warrants are sworn out are approached by the deputies and the warrant shown. Bond is asked for when the victims are met and certain length of time is given fer the bond. A dozen or so have already filed the bond. It is further understood that when the bond is not made and the man leaves town, no effort will be made to run him down. A rumor got out that this is part of a plan drawn up by the Pastors Union, though this is denied in the sheriffs office. The statement is made that. only the men suspected of being.
