MORE STATE MILITIA

TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY SEVEN NEGROES TAKEN INTO
 CUSTODY

 Professional Men Call for Vigorous

 CIergymen-SalOons to be Kept
 Closed.
 Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 25.-'rhe known dead in connection with the riots here since Saturday night number one white number might be added the name of Mrs. Robert P. Thompson, white wom- an, who dropped dead Monday evening as two negroes were shot and beanten in her sight.
 This, the third day of Atlanta's race war, has passed without serious dis turbances. Rumors literally by the hundreds have been brought to the at tention of the authorities and to the newspapers, but in not a single in stance had the stories been verified. It was reported that fifty negroes had been killed here and that the local pa pers and press dispatches were either being censored or were suppressing the facts Nothing has been held back from the outside world that would be of interest and that has been proved true.
 Following the arrest of 257 negroes at BroWnyille, including Clark university students, effected to-day, and the de- tention of about 100 of these in the county jail, the feeling prevailed that at least peace had been restored by a strong show of authority. Almost si- simultaneously two negroes were killed in another and distant part of the city by three policemen, who had been sent to stop them shooting.
 To-day four companies of state mili- tia from outside points were ordered here. The gathering of a large repre- sentation of business and professional men at noon called for vigorous action by the city legislative authorities re- garding negro dives and saloons Res olutions demanded that chese dives be closed and kept closed Nerpetually In these demands the leading negro cler- gymen of the city united.
 Later in the day another meeting of the white citizens was held at the call of President Samuel D. Jones of the Chamber of Commerce.
 The saloons will be kept closed until | further notice.

There is suppressed excite nent among the delegates tonight however, and there may break to-mor- row a storm to sweep away the struc- ture which was built to-day after many hours of earnest conference on the part of party leaders who are here ana who are trying to find a common ground where the democracy of the state may patch its tent and hope to withstand the tempests of the coming campaign. According to the concensus of opinion heard on every hand to- night, William R. Hearst, who already is the nominee of the independence league will probably be nominated for governor on the first ballot. Along with MT.

Oyster Bay, N. r., Sept 25.-Secre- tary of War Taft has not yet given up hope of bringing about a settlement of the difficulties between the Cuban gov ernment and the insurgents without re- sort to armed intervention. The ad- vices from Cuba which have veen re- ceived at the executive offices up to to- night, according to Assistant Secretary Latta are by no means as pessimisitc as the newspapers report. It appears to be the opinion here that Secretary Taft still believes that peace may yet be the outcome in spite of all the difficulties which have arisen.
