NEGRO RESISTED ARREST

Hattiesburg, Miss. Nov. 1.-Two men were fatally wounded and over 300 shots were fred in a race riot at Wig gins. Miss abirty- five miles south of here Sunday afternoon and night.
 William Smith. a negro, in resisting arrest fired on Marshal Quarrels and Deputy Mitchell, the latter receiving a fatal wound In the head.
 Smith escaped to his home, barricad- ed the doors and windows and dehed capture until mob threatened to burn the house. After surrendering he was locked in the village jail where late last night a mob dynamited the struc- ture, fired sevsral vol'eys into Smiths cell and left him for dead.
 While the mob was storming the jail the scene and began firing into the ranks of the besiegers. Over 500 shots were exchanged and D. M. Clark. a white man, was fatally injured. Sev- eral negroes are supposed to have been shot, but so far the total number of casualties has not been learned.
 This morning Smith was found alive in jail, but so badly wounded that both arms had to be amputated. He will be taken to Gulfport for safe keeping.
 Tonight the danger of further riot ing was apparently over. Armed pa trols had left the streets and the me- groes were quiet
 Advices from Wiggins late this af- ternoon state that 200 armed white men are patrolling the streets while the negroes are holding a mass meetir g. The Wiggins correspondent adds that the whites are watching for the me- groes to start something"

REPUBLICAN IN ILLINOIS.
Admitted, However, Democrats Wll
 Gain at Least One Seat.

Chicago, H., Nov. 5.-Although es- inmates of the party managers differ widely, there seems to be no reason to doubt that the Republican party will carry the State in tomorrows election by a substantial majority.
 The Legislature will be Republican and the election of Republican to succeed Senator Shelby M Cullum Is certain The Democrats .-aim that they will gain largely m both branch es of the Legislature, >ut thty do "oe expect to obtain enough members to choose the next Senator.
 The Republicans concede that Con- gressman Rainey, the me Democrat now representing the State at Wash ington. will be reelected in the twen- tieth district and they admit that the fight will be close in the twenty-first district. It is also agred that there will be a hot fight in the eighth dis trict This is normally a Democratic district, and while the Republicans claim it, they concede that it can only be retained by the hardest kind of d struggle.
 The Democrats assert they will ca'- ry eleven other districts as well as the twentieth and eighth l; is prob able that the returns in Chicago and Cook county tomorrow wilt be slow as the ballot is the largest ever seen here, having the names of 334 cand' dates on it. Both the Republicans and Democrats claim they Il carry Cook county, the Republicans assert ing that their plurality will be about 35,000 and the Democrats pu,ing theirs at about 2O,00O. j

 Throughout the state, the contest has been over Congr assme1. The in- terest in the Repab.i1a1 demard that President Roosevelt be given a Repub- Hcan Congress was in ens:fed today. wehn a telegram was given out al Cincinnati in which the President ad- yised his son-inlaw, Cor gressman Iongworth. to have printed what Sec retary Root had said of him and what he had written to Congress nan Wat son as q means of showing the Presi. dents desire for a Republica nHouse

Norman HapgO0d Writes to Jerome of
 Moran Charges.
 New York, Nov. 5.--Norman Hap good, editor of Golfers Weekly. fs quoted in The Times today as having made the following statement regard ing the charge made by John R. Moran, candidate for Governor in Massachu- setts in a letter to District Attorney Jerome that a story. treating of al- legged bribery. by what he termed the tobacco trust" had been suppressed and would not be published until after the election
 That is pure rot. It is true that we are to publish q story of the to- bacco trust and that story will be the story of the trust from it's 'eginnirg to the present day. It is also true that a part of the story will deal with the influencing of legislation by the trusts. We are very sorry tha. the story was not ready for publication some time ago. as we would have been very glad to publish 1t before elec- tion."

dent Roosevelt Leaves White ,use to Vote at Oyster Bay, But Exodus From Capital
 Not Large.

Washington, Nov. 5.-The campaign ih forty-two States for the election O.: the Sixtieth Congress passes into his. tory tonight. Besides the Congress sional balloting, twenty-t5ree States will elect Governors: Arizona ard New Mexico will accept or reject joint Statehood; Oklahoma and Indian Territory will adopt State Constitu- tion, and twenty States will choose Legislatures, which, :n turn. will ele.t United States Senators.
 The United, States Weather BureaI predicts fair weather throughout the East, Middle-West and South. with moderate temperature; rain in Minne- sota and the Dakotas, and cold and snow in Wyoming. Montana and the in- terior of Washington and Oregon.
 President Roosevelt, who sets ths example of good citizenship by going from Washington to Oyster Bay to cast his vote. left the White House on this pilgrimage at midnight. He will return tomorrow, and arrangements have been made as usual to keep him posted at the White House of the elec- tion returns.
 The PreAdent's Cabinet is still in the field. Most of the Cabinet have done strenuous work and several of them will find it convenient to be at thelr hcmes to vote tomorrow. From all re- ports, however, fewer voters have gone from Washington to vote. than in any Congressional year for a decade.
 This is owing largely to the fact that free transportation has been cut oft, and that election rates on tho railroads are f'~hAr than they have been before The otion to this rule IS the case rk voters. Considering the remarkably large num- Der State voters resident in Was going homo to vote.
 Tn ional predictions by the Repl Democratic Congres- sion; :ees, with headquarters resp, New York and Wash. |. ingtt the same as the Finals" announced a lew days ago The Re- publicans claim the net House by fifty; the Democrats claim t by .swen- : 1.-two.
 New York maintains here position n thes limelight of public interest and the campaign there is to be kept up until the last possible moment. Both State Committees claim the State for their candidate by large pluralities Reports from other sections of the country indicate alternately apathy and interest.

 Charleston, W. Va, Nov. 5.--On re- ceipt of a complaint that the Demo- crats of Mingo county had been ter rorizing Republican voters. bundling negroes on trains and running them out of the county, Governor Dawson today ordered three companies of the National Guard to be mobilized at Huntington. ready to move to the scene of the alleged trouble.
 Deputy United States Marshal Day and Deputy Sheriff A. A. Gaujot are reported to have been thrown into jail at Williamson and bail refused them. United States officers left here today to investigate.
 Word from williamson late this evening is that the town Is quiet and that no further disturbances are ex- pected before tomorrow. The mili- tiamen here are still in the armories awaiting orders to go to Williamson. but the prevailing belief now Is that their presence will be unnecessary. The city officials arrested for interfering with an United States officer. were re- leased on bond late this evenig. Deputy Marshal, Day' was also released.
 Companies G. H and l. of the West Virginia National Guard are mobilized and under arms here awaiting orders to go to Williamson. where rioting has
 
 conflicts are expected on election day.
 Democratic policemen of Williamson and Republican deputy sheriffs of Min go county have clashed. and while no blood has yet been shed. there Is every probability that a bloody conflict will occur tomorrow.
 The officials and police of Williamson are also In trouble with the federal au- thorities resulting in the arrest by policemen Of Deputy United States Marshal Day of Welch. Republicans claim that his arrest was for political effect because he secured the release of a negro arrested on suspicion of an intent to vote illegally. whil the Will liamson officials claim that he was guilty of adultery.
 Fifteen deputy marshals went to Williamson today in charge of Major W. H. Lyons, and arrested Mayor Pin son. Chief of Police Chaffin and other officials and citizens of Williamson, charged with interference with a fed eral officer. Feeling In both sides in the election Tuesday Is intense and trouble can hardly be averted.
