DETECTIVE nOYT'S WORK.
He Is on 4 Warm Trail After The
White Cappers and Labor
Atenls.

jackson, july /. Detective
Hoyt, who has been employed by
Gov. Yardaman to run down the
White-cappers, has now gotten his
evidence ID shape, and it is an.
nounced that some startling reve-
lations will be made when the
grand jury meets at Brookhaven.
Last night Detective Hoyt took
the negro, Lewis Jones, from the
city jail here and carried him Sc.
.cretly to the Edwards House,
where he was met by several prom
inent citizens of Lincoln county.
a stenographer was on hand, and
Jones was told to tell bis story
from start to finish, without SPAR
ing anybody or hiding anything.
Jones was kept there for sever
al hours, going over his connec-
tion with the lawbreakers who
have been giving SO much trouble
in Lincoln county. One of the
most important developments,
from his story, is that labor agents
were largely responsible for many
of the white cap outrsges, and
that Jones was employed by these
agents to distribute warning notes
and post warnings on the premises
of the negroes. The object being
to terrorize the negroes into Ieay-
ing the community, when the la
Dor agents would show up and
offer them a place to 60 where
they were promised freedom from
whitecapism.
Jones statement was reduced
to writing today and is a volum-
inous document, giving names,
dates and places, and all the cir
cumstances connected with his
employment by the whitecappers
and labor agents from beginning
to end. 1t will be sworn to and
used as evidence in the grand iu-
ry room at Brookhaven. The
names of the persons implicated
by Jones are carefully guarded
and concealed by the detective and
others who were present when the
statement was taken from the me-
gro, but it is confdentially learned
that some of the names. will cause
surprise when the indictments are
returned.
Jones was a negro preacher,
and was used as a secret agent in
the work Of terrorizing negroes
for many months. When the peo-
pie became aroused and the courts
beagn to get close behind the per-
petrators Jones was induced to
vanish. When Detective Hoyt
appeared on the scene, as the se-
cret agent employed by Gov. Var
daman, he soon learned Of Jones
and his importance as a witness in
the prosecution of the white cap
pers, and at once got on the trail
Of Jones and chased him all over
the State, and finally ran him
down in New Orleans, where be
was arrested. Jones is still held
in the city jail here.
Detective Hoyt, in the mean
time, is still active in his efforts to
secure other witnesses, and will
work in all of the white cap coun-
ties until the evil is entirely erad-
icated by the conviction of the
ring leaders. Times Democrat
