Near MouItrie.

Moultrie, Ca, July 2O.-A clash be-
tween the whites and blacks at the

Gus Bush made a demand on Super

which had been denied him under the
rules of the company for losing day
without giving notice in advance.
Bush was heavily armed and was
accompanied by a dozen other negroes,
most of whom were armed and the SUI
perintendent was forced to give over
the check. When it was delivered to
Bush he waved it over his head and
all the negroes in the crowd cheered
him This incensed the white la
borers, who had been forced to OBJ
serve the same rules and they went on
strike.
Feeling between the white and ne
gro Iaborers was very high for sew
eral hours, and number Of white
men sent into Moultrie for pistols and
guns. Finally the white men return
ed to work on the agreement of the
superintendent to discharge the ne
groes. The sheriff placed Bush and
another of the ring-leaiers in the af-
fair under arrest,
The remainder of the negroes have

Preceding his address, Chairman
Price Gilbert, of the executive com

Badly Damaged.
New York, July 20.-Two crowded
excursion steamers were in collision
Thursday night in New York harbor
off Statent island, imperiltpg the lives
of 1900 persons, but neither in the
crash itself nor in the wild panic
which followed, was any one seriously
injured.
The vessels were the Perseus, Of the
Iron Steamboat company, bound for
Coney island with 500 passengers on
board, and the Thomas Patten, of the
Patten line, bound from Long Branch
to New York, carrying 1000 passen-
gers.
The whistles of the cOlliding steam
ers soon brought assistance from boats
in the bay, and the frightened pas
sengers were transferred as quickly as
possible and brought to this city
The Perseus and the Patten inter
locked and neither sank. Wrecking
vessels were sent to the scene.
The lower harbor was covered with
a dense fog at the time of the COLI
sion, and the two vessels were running
at reduced speed. When directly off
st. George, Staten Island, the Thorn
as Patten crashed with terrific force
into the port side of the Perseus,
smashing the paddle wheel and box,
and tearing away much of the join
er work. The Patterns bow and up
per fore decks were badly damaged.
The impact was so great that the YES
sells remained fast together No eff
fort was made by the Patten to break
away, for it was felt that safety from
sinking lay in the vessels remaining
interlocked.
When the Patten suddenly Ioomed
out OF the fog and it was seen that a
collision was unavoidable, the passen-
gers on the two vessels became fran
tic with fear. Just Uefore the crash
one man on the Perseus jumped over
board, but was quickly rescued.
The captains and officers were
among the passengers in. an effort to
restore quiet A hasty examination
indicated that neither boat was in i'm
mediate danger and the whistles were
calling for assistance. The excursion
boat Commodore and a Staten island
ferryboat ranged alongside, a transfer
of passengers was quickly made and
all were brought to the city.
During the panic many women faint
ed and some were bruised, but none
seriously.
One of the passengers from e~ps Per
seus said he had seen two men jump
overheard and he thought both were
drowned. There was no confirmation
Of this, however.
Efforts are being made to tow the
disabled vessels toward Brooklyn.

Seattle, Wash, July 20.-In conse-
Quence of the killing of George Mitch,
ell by his sister, Ethel, the authorities
have resolved to drive the "Holy Rol-

The leader of the band in Seattle

tie. Mitchell was acquitted on a
plea Of temporary insanity.
Esther MiSehell resented her broth
er's act; and she and CheffieId's wild
ow, with whom she was on the best
of terms, decided upon revenge. II
was agreed that the one who got the
Irst opportunity should kill George
Mitchell
The chance came to Esther in a
waiting room Of the union depot.
George Mitchell was going away,
and his brother, Perry and Fred, were
there to see him off. Esther, who had
refused up to that time to be recon
ciled to her brother, was invited to 30
to the depot and did So Concealing
her real feelings she shook hands with
each of her brothers and chatted with
them until train time. She walked
beside George Mitchell as they all
started for the train together, and as
they neared the door she stepped close
to his side, pressed a revolver against
his head and fired. She had CON
cealed the revolver in her coat.
The girl says that the spirit of her
dead lover urged her to kill her
brother. She says that it was blood
atonement, and that the spirit of Cref-
field has not annoyed her since she
killed her brother. Esther admits
that she and the widow of the Holy
Roller were in conspiracy to avenge
his death
Il am not insane" declared Esther
Mitchell. Before l killed my broth
er, Mrs Cre1feld and myself talked it
all over, and we knew that we would
be arrested and the law would pun
ish us.

speaking of Cref1eld and in answer to
a question, was holy man. My
brother was of the world, and was de-
filed. 1t was right that he should
be punished for what he did, and the
law set him free
Mrs. Crefield does noT- stempt to
justify her part in the shooting on
the ground of religious training, nor
does she insist that the Cref1eld infu-
ence is still alive. She was ASKED
whether the spirit Of Joshua had been
heard or whether she expected him
to return to her.
The Holy Rollers" got their name
from the fact that they frequently
roll on the ground when possessed of
a religious ecstacy. The sect had it's
origin in central New York, that pro-
life mother of strange beliefs from
which sprung the Mofmens, the shak-
ers, the Oneida community and the
Holy Order of Kneebenders.
