MANY NEGROES ARRESTED.
One Slain in Effort to Escape From
Troops.

Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 26.-Following
the killing of Policeman Heard and
the serious wounding of three other
members of the county police Colonel
Clifford Anderson, commanding the
state militia, decided on raid of the
settlement known as Brownsville, in
the southern part of the city, near
where the shooting occurred. Browns
vile covers about twenty acres and is
the home of about 1900 negroes.
With four companies of militia,
about forty-fve of the county police
force and the governors horse guards
the place was surrounded about 5
o'clock in the morning. Two hundred
and fifty-seven negroes were placed
under arrest and a search was begun
for arms and ammunition. About
thirty negroes were found armed and
sent to the police barracks under
heavy guard. When the negroes
found they were surrounded many
made desperate attempts to escape.
One negro was killed and another
wounded in such attempts. One of
the first to be arrested was J. l.. Price,
the negro postmaster, who is charged
with supplying ammunition to negroes.
1t is asserted that none of those ar
rested was student or connected
with Clark university.
Two negroes wounded in the fight
with the county police earlier in the
night were found dead later. They
were tracked by bloodstains into the
woods, where their bodies were found.
The total known dead as the result
of the nights encounters is reported
as five negroes, besides Policeman
Heard and Mrs. r. G. Thompson, a
white woman, who dropped dead from
the excitement Of witnessing the
shooting of two negro prisoners.
Governor Terrell, over the tele-
phone, declared to the Associated
Press that he does not believe that it
will be necessary to declare martial
law, but as a precautionary measure
he intends to order several additional
companies of the state militia to At
lanta.

NEWS OF THE WEEK
RESURRECTION IN CUBA.

Peace for Cuba, unless accomplished
through American intervention, seems
to be further away now than when
Secretary of War Taft and Assistant
Sec1 etary Of State Bacon began nego-
tiaticns to harmonic the opposing
factions. The arrival at Havana Of
three Of the largest United States bat
tleships and four cruisers, in addition
to those already there, has had little
effect On the insurgents in the field
and when the leaders Of the revolution
were apprised of the big squadron
now in Cuban waters they greeted the
informa ton with Spanish expressions
to the effect that they cannot come
to the BUSH"
Propositions made by the Moderates
have considerably changed the situa-
tion, having paved the way for sug-
gcstions by Messrs. Taft and Bacon
for further concessions on beth sides
which may yet save the republic in
tact The proposals, while not broad
and f.rreaching enough to meet the
necessities of the case, evidence de-
sire on the part of the Moderates to
maintain the integrity of the republic,
even thcagh they. are compelled to
abandon t2eir control. Consequently
the situation is at least somewhat
more hopeful.
The rebel leader Pine Guerra has
left Artenisa for Guanajay, twenty
one miles southwest of Havana. He
is reported to have 5000 men with
him. He will camp at Guanajay await
ing the result of peace negotiations.
Nine American warships, the bat
tleships Louisiana, Virginia and New
Jersey and the cruisers Cleveland,
Tacoma, Denver, Des Moines, Mime
apolis and Newark are now anchored
in the harbor of Havana.
The cruiser Dixie has arrived at
Cienfuegos, Cuba, with 300 marines
aboard, to assist the Marietta in pro-
tecting American plantations there.

FOREIGN NEWS.

A terrific storm broke suddenly at
Hongkong Sept. 18, lasting two hours
and destroying innumerable native
craft and causing much loss of life.
The harbor was literally strewn with
wreckage and the streets of the city
were blocked with debris. The loss
of life is estimated as high as 5000,
while the property loss is placed at
over $2,000,00O.
An imperial edict has been issued
at Picking ordering the abolition of the
use of opium, both foreign and native,
within a decade. The edict strongly
condemns the vice and commands the
council of state to devise regulations
for the enforcement of the prohibition
against opium smoking and the Guilt
walton OF the poppy.
The situation in Morocco is becom-
ing daily more menacing. European
properties at Taflett, Riff, Mogador,
Casa Blanca and even Tangier are
threatened. Natives are equipping and
organizing as if for holy war and the
sultan's authority is non-existent.
The entire fleet of 600 fishing junks
was lost in the recent typhoon which
caused such immense loss of life and
property at Hongkong. This increases
the mortality to 10000 persons.
Twelve persons were killed and sew.
enteen were injured in wreck of the
Scotch express on the Great Northern
railway at Grantham, Eng.
Fifty-one persons were drowned in
the recent floods in Santiago, 1xcu'
