days in Kemper county were not as seri-
ors az at first reported. The trouble
il attributed To the actions of reck-
less mob. which III searching for a negro
who attacked Conductor Cooper aboard
d Mobile n Ohio train last Sunday and
shot and killed Constable 0'Brien of
WahalaS, killed three negroes and
wounded several others.
Feeling against the negroes was inten-
sifed by the killing by negroes Of Com
ductor RI N. Harrison Of the Mobile a
Ohio railroad at Crawford's on Monday
night. Believing that the mob was be-
yond control, Deputy Sheriff Alexander
at Scooba asked that innocent negroes
might be protected. Two companies of
state troops are now encamped at Scoo-
ba.
Late last evening Governor VarHaman
accompanied by members Of the state
militia stationed at jackson, left foS
Scooba, Governor Vardaman said that
there had been no fresh outbreaks, but
