RACE RIOT IN MISSISSIPPI
Over Five Hundred SHIFTS Fired and
Only Two of Them Hit
Anybody.

Hattiesburg, Miss, Nov. 6.-TWo
men We're fatally wounded and over
800 shots were fired in a race riot at
Virgins, Miss, thirty-tive miles south
of here. William Smith, a negro, in re-
sisting arrest, fired on Marshal Quar-
relS and Deputy Mitchell, the latter re-
ceiving a fatal wound in the head.
Smith escaped to his home, barrricaded
the doors and windows and detied cap
ture until Il mob threatened to burn
the house. After surrendering he WAS
locked IN the village Jail
A mob dynamited the structure,
fired several volleys into ibis cell, and
left him for dead. While the mob was
stOrming the Jail large crowd Of ne
groes came upon the scene and began.
firing into the ranks of the beseigers.
over 500 shots were exchanged and
d. NJ. Clarke, white man, was fatal
" injured. Several negroes are sup
posed to have been shot, but so far the
total numberof casualties has not been
learned. Smith was found alive in
the Jail, but his arms had to be am
nutated.

DEMOCRATS FIGHT MoRMONS
Will Contest the Election of a Mem
Der if 1t Occurs of a Member
of Congress from Utah.

salt Lake City, Nov. 6.-According
to The Herald, official organ of the
Democratic party in Utah, if Joseph
Howell, Republican, is reelected to
congress from this state a contest will
be filed alleging ecclesiastical interfer-
ence by the Mormon church. Already
the managers of the democratic CAM
paign are gathering evidence of al
legged interference by that church.
They have been in communication
with Chairman c. G. Griggs, of the
Democratic national committee, rela-
tive to bringing the matter before the
lower house of congress should Howell
be elected. 1t is probable that if con-
test is started the ground covered BY
an investigating committee will be
much the same as that in the Smoot
case.

BOLD BANK ROBBERY
Assistant Cashier Held Up by Two
Men and $1,000 Taken, the
Thugs Escaping.

LaSalle, ILL.,, Nov. 6.-The Farmers
and Miners bank, of Ladd, mining
town, was held up and robbed. The
assistant cashier. ]. j. Hurley, was
alone in the bank when two men en-
tered and asked for some pennies. The
next moment, covering Hurley with re
volvers, they ordered him to throw up
his hands. The robbers then marched
Hurley to q back room, where they
bound him hand and foot.
The robbers then helped themselves
to cash and escaped. They left $3.50
in gold, besides quantity of silver, on
the bank counter, and disturbed little
in the vault The amount of their
booty will be about $1,000, as near as
the bank officers are able to estimate
the loss

SHAME OF EDGAR COUNTY"
Ministerial Association Finds Three
Men Who Refuse to Promi.e Not
to Help Corrupt the Ballot.

Pari, H., Nov. 6.-"The Shame of
Edgar cOunty-the Defeat of Honest
Politics" an address issued by the Min
isterial association, charges that three
of the county candidates have admit
ted buying votes for the coming cleo
ton. The address tells Of the efforts
of the local clergymen to have the ten
candidates pledge themselves to an
agreement not to ''con%bute money Or
anything Of value to corrupt the bal
lot
The clergymen say that as result
of their urgings seven Of the candi-
dates signed the agreement, while tho
remaining three, though protesting to
approve of it, declared that they had
already started the vote buying and
would not sign. The agreement wan
formulated at a meeting which was az
tended by al the ministers of the city.
They say that this was he'd in le-
spOnse to the solicitation of certain of
the candidates that something be done
to put stop to the cOrrupting inf =
ences that are manifesting themselves

PRESIDENTS FINAL EFFORT
Sends a Telegram to Nick Long
Interchangeable Claims.

n Washington. Nov. 6.-The campaign
IT, forty-two states for the election Of
the Sixtieth congress passed into his
tory last night. Besides the congress
sional ballOting twenty-three states
will elect governors Arizona and New
Mexico will accept or reject a joint
statehood: Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory will adopt a state constitu-
ton. and twenty states will choose leg
islatures which in turn will elect Unit
ed States senators.
President Roosevelt, who yearly sets
the example of good citizenship by go
ing from Washington to Oyster Bay
to cast his vote. left the White House
on this pilgrimage at midnight. He
will return today and arrangements
have been made as usual to keep him
posted at the White House of the cleo
tiOn returns.
The presidents last political effort
was made yesterday. Secretary Roots
speech and his own letter to Repre-
sentative Watson were Endorsed by
President Roosevelt in a telegram sent
10 MS SOU-lU-lbW. 1AeJIeSeildlINC MN
olast I.OngwOrth. at Cincinnati. The
telegram is as follows: IF anything
is desired from me you may print what
Root said about my desire for the cleo
ton of a Republican congress. and re-
print portions of my letter to Watson.
From all reports fewer voters have
gone home from Washington to vote
than in any congressional year for a
decade. This is owing largely TO the
fact that free transportation has been
cCt off. The single exception TO this
rule is the case of New York voters.
Considering the expense remarkably
large number of Empire State voters
resident i'm Washington have gone
home to vote.
The congressional predictions by the
Republican and Democratic congress
sional committees, with headquarters
respectively in New York and Wash
ingtOn, remain the same rs the finals
announced a few days ago. The Re
publiCans claim the next house by
fifty: the Democrats claim it by TWEEN
tv-two. New York maintains her 20
sition in the limelight of public inter
est.

That Is How the Prophets Stand
on the Result in the EN-
pire State.
BETTING ODDS FAVOR HUGHES
Many Wa gers Are Lad at Four

McCarren's Radical Professionalism
certainty as TO the Up state Vote
Presidents Final Shot
Claims as TO Congress.

New York, Nov 6.-Prediction on
the result Of the election today are as
wide apart as it is possible. Repub-
lican state confidently ex-
pect a plurality of not less than 200,-
600 for the ticket, while the managers
of the Independence League and Demo-
cratic jOintcampaign anticipate 10000
votes to spare in Greater New York
to which they add a plurality Of $4,000
above the Harlem river. The political
thermometer i'm Wall street varied from
odds of 2E2 to l on the election of a
Republican governor to to 1 and back
to to 1, at which figures the greater
number Of bets on the curb were
placed.
McCarren's Unusual Expectation.
In spite of the confidence expressed
on both sides none would deny that
never before could party lines be less
relied upon to deliver the regular vote.
Hughes has received the Endorsement
of many cld-line Democrats who OBJ
ject to the action of the Democratic
convention at Buffalo. Senator z. III.
McCarren. Democratic leader of the
Kings county Democracy, prophes:ed
a Republican plurality Of 5000 in bis
county.
Upstate Vote Uncertains.
On the other hand Hearst invaded
the upstate strOngholds. That he viii
drawn from the Republican vote in
certain sections is generally conceded.
The Republicans have always count
ed upon the upstate counties to roll
up a vote to more than offset the
Democratic plurality in Greater New
York. but this year upstate can hardly
be described as pitted against the
metropolis.
Fought to. the Last Moment.
Contrary to theusual practice of can
didates this years campaigners carried
their canvass right up to the early
hours of election day, and it was
short night for party wOrkersEwhO were
to he early at the polls. Hughes spoke
along the water front during the after
noon and six times uptown last night.
closing his canvass with a meeting in
Durland'S riding academy Hearst ton
tented himself during the day with
sending out an appeal to election
watchers to be on their guard, but at
night addressed four gatherings on the
east side. Both candidates were haile1
