to Leave and Promise Never
to Return.

A tragic tale of race prejudice in Mis-
sissippi was told at the White House
this morning by NJ J. Hornsby, col
ored men, which rivals the famous In
dianola case, and involves both the
Postoffice Department and the Civil
Service Commission.
Young Hornsby, who is twenty-three
years old, says he passed the highest
examination for appointment to a clerk
ship in the postoffice at Yazoo In the
competition We're several other colored
men and two whites.
News Circulated.
Hornsby was notified last Tuesday
that the position was his. Going to the
postmaster to procure bond blank, he
was told to wait until next day. In
the meantime the news had got around
town, and threats were made against
Hornsby.
Some time ago another young colored
man had been run cut of Yazoo because
he had passed a civil service exau1ina-
ton for clerkship in the postoffice. 1t
was lntimated the same fate would
come to Hornsby if he tried to take
hold.
Promised to Stay Away.
On Wednesday Hornsby got his blank
and thought he would go to jackson.
Miss, before the crowd caught him, and
stay there until the trouble blew over.
a crowd of about twenty-five men
caught MIN on the train before he left
town, however, and the result was that
ne signed a paper guaranteeing to leave
1azoo and never come back He also
promised to give up the cIerkship.
Secretary Loeb told Hornsby, who
was accompanied by the Rev. S. L..
Carothers. that the President would not
be able to take up his case until he re-
turned from his Western trip, but sug-
gested that he go to tie Civil Service
commissioners and lay the facts before
them This Hornsby promised to do

NEW YORK.

The current position of the stock mar
ket appears to be quite satisfactory 10
the leading speculative interests which
are conducting operations that have for
their object higher quotations for securi-
ties The reactions that have taken
place In the last fortnight have served
to strengthen the technical speculative
situation. and as a consequence the bull
element is preparing to resume it's cam
paiSn for better prices in the confident
belief thai success will attend it's eff
forts. There is no good reason why the
advocates of a rising market should be
disappointed. Conditions affecting spec
ulation and the intrinsic worth of secu-
rites are N favor Of an advancing
course of values, while the fact that the
leading banking and corporate interests
have plans and deals under way the
success of which depends on an active
strong market for securities practically

interest in protecting Americans in
their respective districts, who may suf-
fer indignities from local authorities,
and who have no keen desires to adj
vance American trade.
In the same districts there are con-
suIar officers of other powerful COM
mercia nations who not only require
full recognition of the rights OF the
citizens of their respective countries,
but who are searching in every con-
ceivable way to promote the commerce
Of their native lands.
Some Jealous Consuls.
Among these consuls there are OFF,
GERS who are intelligent, active and
painstaking, and who have labored
with zeal In behalf of America. But the
number of these men is comparatively
small and they depend In many IN
stances upon political influence for adj
yancement rather than upon the record
OF good work which they may make.
That Mr.. Root is acting In entire &C
cord with the presidents wishes is
shown by reference to the last annual
message of MI Roosevelt, wherein he
declared that the consular service
needed Improvement and recommends
ed that salaries should be substituted
for fees and that a proper CLASSIFICATION.
grading and transfer of officers should
be provided.
