KILLED JOHN HANLAN
IN LAWRENCE COUNTY
Plead Guilty to MansIauehter and Is
Serving Ten Years Sentence-Es-

UNFAIRLY Returned Few Days Ago.

petition will shortly be presented to
the governor for the pardon of billie"
Cox, the white man who a few weeks
ago escaped from the Rankin County
state farm, and who a day or two later
returned and gave himself up to Gov
ernor Noel, his escape having been
made in company with another white
convict, who has not yet returned.
Cox was charged with murder in
Lawrence County, and in 1904 entered
a plea of guilty to manslaughter, and
took ten years sentence for the kill
ing of his brother-in-law. John Hanlan
who was regarded as a dangerous man.
and who had killed a negro before he
himself was killed by Cox.
After killing his brother-in-law Cox
tried to commit suicide, and at the
time he entered plea of guilty he was
himself very much weakened by his
self-inlicted wound. and this is sup
posed to have affected his mind.
At any rate, Cox is regarded as be-
ing very weak mentally, as is evil
denced by his action in surrendering
himself after having made his escape.
He appeared at the governors man.
sion late in the evening and told the
governor what he wanted. Governor
Noel told him to come back the follow
ing morning, which he did, when he
was taken in charge and taken to the
Rankin farm by Secretary Yerger, and
has since remained inside the prison
walls.
Allowing for his good time Cox has
only about two years to serve, and
in view of his mental condition it is
likely that he will be either pardoned
on the ground that his incarceration is
not a reasonable punishment, or sent
to the asylum.
The petition for his pardon how
ever does not mention his mental con-
dition, but rests on the claim that
he has been sufficiently punished

MILL
WORKERS OUT
ON A STRIKE
Hearst News Service.

Birmingham, Ala, September IA
Between forty and fifty employees of
the Avondale cotton mills, of which
Governor B. B. Conner is the chief
owner. went out on a strike this morn
ing.
1t is stated that a mass meeting
will be held tonight at which it is
expected that several hundred other
operatives will be induced to strike.
Circulars are being distributed among
all of the employees of the mills to this
end and union agitators are present to
meet the workers in person as they
emerge from the factory building this
afternoon.
The claim is made that four months
ago a reduction Of ten per cent. was
made in the wages of the employees
and that still another cut of 16 2-3
cents went into effect this morning.
Between 400 and 500 persons are
employed in the mills and shut down
is now probable.

take.

fact, all kinds of trade must be
brought to the city. and nothing
should be left undone to secure every
thing that will help the city
The new warehouse will be plenty
large to take care of all the cotton
that will be stored here, and owing to
the fact that Hattiesburg's banking
facilities are great and that the banks
will deal as literally with the farm
ers as any banks in the state, the es-
tablishment of this storage warehouse
means that great deal of cotton will
come here instead of going to places
with smaller advantages.
Mr.. Bradshaw stated that he had
been Instrumental in establishing over
$4,000 worth of warehouses in the
last six weeks and that this matter
was receiving the attention of the
farmers all over the state.
Camping arrangements should be
made in connection with the new

VOTE WILL Be CLOSE
BETWEEN The two men
City Of jackson is Conceded to Henry,
But Rural Sections of Kinds County
May Give Collier a Majority-cIose
in Yazoo and Madison.
Daily News Special.

Jackson, Miss. September 1.-THE
ballot boxes and tickets are being sent
out today all over the Eighth Con-
gressional District for the second pri-
mary, which is to be held tomorrow
to decide the contest between Major
Pat Henry, of Brandon, and Hon. J..
Will Collier. of Vicksburg, for the seat
in congress now occupied by Hon.
John Sharp Williams.
While there is no guarantee against
surprises. it is freely predicted that
the result tomorrow will be almost as
close as was that of the first primary
on August 25, when there were six
candidates in the race and less than
one hundred votes between the three
highest, with twoo theirs only neck
of hundred or so behind.
It is conceded that each of the can
didates will carry his home county
practically solid, and on this calcula-
ton Mr.. Collier should come out at
least four or five hundred votes ahead
in the counties of Rankin and Warren.
The fighting ground will be Kinds,
Madison and Yazoo, and moth candi-
dates have been devoting most of their
campaign work to these three counties,
where the friends of each predict vic
tory for their man.
There are practically no issues be-
tween the two candidates. Some of
their friends have attempted to make
it fight of the old men against the
young men, but it is st ated that neith-
er candidate has sanctioned this fea-
ture. Major Henry's friends assert
that he will get the solid vote of the
Confederate veterans, and allowing
for Mr.. Golfers lead in the two home
counties, which would probably be
overbalanced by this vote throughout
the district, the campaign today has
every appearance of being a very
close one, with no great odds in ia
y0r of either candidate.
In Kinds County the vote will un-
doubtedly be very close. 1t is conced-
ed that Major. Henry will carry this
city. but Mr.. Collier has a somewhat
better chance to carry the rural dis
tricts. in some sections of which he
has relatives, and some portions of
which extend close to Vicksburg, his
home.
Both candidates are devoting today's
work to this city, and both are billed
for campaign speeches here tonight,
Major Henry speaking in Smith Park,
and Mr.. Collier in .Poindexter Park.
Circulars advertising the two speeches
are being widely distributed through
out the city.

Enough votes are in sight to defeat
Charles E. Hughes for denomination
for governor by the Republican con-

Governor Hughes is not in Saratoga,
