YOUNG CONFESSES MURDER

Bessemer, November 29.-(Specisl)-Th
committee In charge of the strike OF the
employees at the Bessemef Soil Pipe works
held a consultation tonight, and after
considering a proposition Of a represent
tatlve In charge of the operators inter-
ests, issued an order to the worknien to
return to their places Monday morning
pending final settlement of difficulties,
1t Is understood that the offer made by
the management was acceptable TO the
committee and that IL has agreed TO allow
sufficient time for this to be carried out.
The cause of the withdrawal was the en-
ployment of a manager who had previous
" run negro shop, but the authorities
are not yet ready to announce whether
the new man has been removed, or wheth-
er another agreement has been reached.
The outlook Is now quite bright for a
full adjustment and. the plant may again
begin on the large orders which have been
recently piling up. Since many of the
employees own shares In the company
there Is no doubt but that any slight diff
fieulty may be easily cleared away.
Murderer Confessed.
Confessing his guilt and attempting to
exonerate his friend, Cy Young today
confirmed the indictments just made
by the grand jury against him. and veri-
fled the work of Detectives Patton and
Childress in almost every feature.
Young and Jeff Sans are charged with
the murder of Barber Martin about three
weeks ago, one of the most horrible
crimes that has occurred in Bessemer
for long time. He had virtually con-
fessed in the preliminary hearing, but
today he called the officers of the county
jail and made a full statement of his part
in the tragedy, telling them exactly where
the knife which he used in the bloody
action could be found. He said that no
one was with him nor assisted him in the
murder
The large jack knife covered with
blood and the blade bent by the wrench 1t
was given in the bones of the victims
back was easily found by Detective Chill
dress and Attorney Gardner Goodwin in
the rear of Dick Hogues yard, where
Young had boarded. The knife belonged

TO FIGHT FEVER TICK
Louisiana Congressman Seek
Increase in Appropriation.

Washington, May 2.-Speeches
relating to the proposed crusade
against the so-called Texas cattle
fever tick were made by Repre-
sentatives RansdeIl and Watkins,
of Louisiana. The agricultural
appropriation carries an item of
sos, 900 for this work and Messrs.
Watkins and Ransdell desire to
increase the sum to 100000.
In his speech Mr.. Ransdell
said the estimates of the losses
resulting from the tick ranged
from 500, 100000 to $780, 900, 900.
Judge Watkins said that the raw
ages of the boil weevil in Louis
lana had caused the farmers to
turn to cattle raising and that
they were eavilyshandicapped by
the tick.
Secretary Wilson predicts that
his department will be able to ex-
terminate the tick, although he
is not able at present to say just
how he will GO about the work.

ESCAPED FROM THE JAIL
Jack Lee Sawed Bar Out of q
Window.

Jack Lee, a white man who was
serving a twelve months sentence
In Jail for selling whiskey without
license, escaped some time during
Sunday night by saving out bar
in the window over the front en-
trance to the Jail. He used a
hacksaw which was furnished
him by some one from the out
side.
This is the second Jail delivery
here during the past few weeks,
two boys escaping in the same
manner some weeks ago, but they
were soon captured. 1t is no
trouble to smuggle anything into
the Jail, in fact, there is no SNUG
CLING. for anybody and everybody
are at liberty to 60 about the Jail
at all times, there being no fence
or other hindrance. 1t is fore
gone conclusion that prisoners
will escape whenever they have
such opportunities, and it is out
of the question to guard the Jail
at all times. Some plan should
be devised to prohibit promis-
cuous visiting or lettering about
the Jail.
