NEGRO Killed.

The officers were keeping vigil al
the depot last Monday night watching
for the negro, John Brown, who cut
OrwoOd Carter on Sunday night, and
seeing some suspicious negroes, they
endeavored to ascertain who they were,
but instead OF stopping, the negroes
went off as fast as their feet could carry
them, with the officers in hot pur-
suit, and thinking to stop the feers,
several shots were fired, and one of
the negroes was accidentally killed.
The dead uegro proved to be from
Winona. and the reason, doubtless,
that he and his party took fright at
the officers so quickly was because
they had just stolen a ride on an in
coming train.

THE DRAINS ON THE
SOUTH'S FINANCES
The Enormous Amount Paid Federal Pensions
Last Year it Was More Than One and Half
rliIlions to Each Southern State-Insurance
and Other Items.

Last year about S142, 900, 900 was
paid out to 1000, 900 pensioners. OF
this amount the South contributes
over S2O, ,000,0 more than it has re.
ceived in pensions. This is an aver
age of over 81, 900, 900 for each of the
twelve southern states proper. In
1890 the pension appropriation for the
first time exceeded the SlOO, 900, 900
mark, though for ten years previous
to that time it exceeded $50, ZOO, 900.
1t has never been under Sl39, 900, 900
since 1891, except in l9O2-O3, when it
was over S138, 900, 900, and in 1898 it
reached s158, 200, 900. Placing the
average for each state at 81, 200, 900 Of
payments in excess Of receipts for the
last twelve years, it would be an av-
erage of Sl4, 100000 a year for the
southern states. This would make
the pro-rata amount for Tennessee for
the last twelve years $14, 400, 600
enough to pay the state debt. We
are not making complaint OF the PEN
sion simply because it is not of advan-
tage to the South, but it is a consid-
erable drain on the South.
Another drain on the South is the
enormous sum annually contributed
to the northern insurance companies.
The South sends annually about $780,
100000 for life and S35, 900, 900 for
fire insurance to northern companies. |
To this must be added accident, in
duStrial, guarantee and other inSur-
ance, making total of not less than
500, 600, 600 annually drawn from
