Fight Between Factions of
Tobacco Growers.

oWENSBoRo. Ky, Nov 10. What
threatened for a time to develop into a
battle between many hundreds of members
OF the American Society Of Equity and
their opponents was narrowly avoided to-
day. The members OF the society have for
nearly year been waging a campaign In
favor Of cooperation in selling and hold
ing their tobacco crop. The feeling en-
gendered between farmers who desired to
hold and those who desired to sell,
especially those dealing with the so-calied
tobacco trust, has already resulted in nu-
merous outrages, such as burning the to =
bacco barns, destroying young tobacco
plant beds and in one or two instances
shooting into the homes Of tobacco
farmers.
The Antiquity farmers had called a big
mass meeting, to be held in Court House
square, to protest against the lawlessness
which has been prevalent and to discuss
means of protecting themselves in market
Ing their tobacco according TO their desires.

PLOT TO KILL THE CAR
Guards Have Fight with Men
Trying to SemaphOre
Wire.

ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. lO-what is be-
lieved TO have been a carefully conceived
plot to take the life OF Emperor Nicholas
While he was enroute from Peterhof To
his winter palace at Tsarsko-seloe today
was frustrated by the vigilance OF the
railway guards. Early this morning a
guard discovered six men trying to cut
the wire OF a semaphore signal at Ligovo
station at the junction OF the railroads TO
Peterhof and Tsarsko-seloe The guard
attempted 70 arrest the men, but was
fired upon and wounded. The shots. how
ever aroused the officers and guards al
the station, and several volleys were ex
changed between the outlaws and the SOL
diers, the former escaping without injury.
The police profess to be unable to under
stand the attempt to cut the semaphore.
as such an act could hardly work any
harm to the imperial train, which was d Ne
to pass few hours later. II is generally
believed, however, that outlaws intend a
to prevent the use OF the signal with the
object Of bringing the train TO a stop Al
that point No arrests have been made.

1T is my belief that the benefits TO fol-

nize at the present time l am at present
unable 10 form an opinion onhand of the
possible future advantages, but am con-

ton of the assembly has gone a long wav

hllment Of solemn promise, which many
expected would not be FULFILLED, the secre-
tary of war did not bring independence
for my people in his pocket, but he
brought the means OF attaining IT, He told
us how we can get 1t. The Filipinos are
thankful for the information and pleased
at what the assembly has done, especially
in the interests OF legislation, education
and agriculture.
President Of the Assembly Osmena con-
siders that the most complete result Of the

having been the greatest thing done yet.
He is confident that much more has been
accomplished than has appeared on the
surface.
