THEY ALSO Want
TO COMPROMISE
Twelve Additional Members of the Re-
tail Lumber Dealers Association
Said to Be Seeking Settlement

JACKSON, Miss, August 24.-
Twelve members of the disbanded
Mississippi and Louisiana Retail Lum-
Der Dealers Association, in addition
to the fifteen who have paid $500 each
to Attorney-General j. B. Stirling Of
Mississippi, in compromise for the
antitrust penalties sought to be col
lected through litigation at the rate
of $4,000 for each of the seventy
seven members, are endeavoring TO
follow in the footsteps of the favored
fifteen This is in spite of the fact
that Mr. Stirlingf, before his departure
for Chicago for an extended vacation.
announced that the door was closed
to the sizty-two members outside the
bounds Of the compromise because
they did not come to the stretch on
scheduled time. However, there an

retailers who are determined to make
fight against the Mississippi supreme
court decision ard carry Tie cesc &c

Strong pressure is being made ly
these members to prevent any more
attempted desertion from their ranks.
The plan of action now under dis.
cussion by the aggressive members is
TO hold a meeting at an early date
and map out a fight. The first step

factions were not satisfied and the re-
port of the attempt to assassinate the
son of DR.. A. M. Newman created no
great surprise here.
DR.. Newman had been assassinated
on the streets of Meadville in broad
daylight and his assassins have never
been brought to justice. e. w. New
man was recently elected chancery
clerk to succeed his father, defeating
five opponents. 1t was stated on the
day Of the election, and afterwards,
that there had been no unpleasantness
and no trouble, and that it was hoped
the hatchet had been buried. 1t had
been charged that in the death Of DR..
Newman, the rrime factor, the moving
spirit in the Franklin county feud
wars had been removed, ard that there
was no danger of another outbreak
Young Newman had been shot and SER
iously wounded in the street duel the
day his father was killed but had
about recovered and was limpihg
around on crutches on the day of the
election.
Sunday night about II o'clock Pri.
vate Secretary Buck received a long
distance telephone message to the eff
feet that Mr.. Newman had been shot
and seriously wounded. The message
stated that he was seated in his home
when several shots were fired through
the open window in an attempt to as
sassinate him. The governor was ask
ed to send bloodhounds from the
state farm III Rankin county but tnas
being impracticable because OF the
great distance to Meadville, the sheriff
was directed to procure dogs from the
sheriff OF Adams county at Natchez,

In tho meantime il is momentarilv

Meadville, but nothing has been heard

GIRLS FATHER FATALLY SHOT
Another Sensational Chapter in the
West Virginia Trouble.

Huntington, w, Va, Sept. T.
One of the most sensational TRACE
dies in the history of Huntington oc-
CURED early yesterday when ]. N.
Chapman, supervisor of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad, was shot
down and fatally wounded by Earle
budding, a leading business man of
this city.
Some time ago Chapman's daugh-
ter, who is employed in a depart
ment store owned by budding, was
arrested on charge of theft.
After the arrest of the young girl
budding refused to prosecute her,
and she was consequently discharg-
ed
1t is alleged by friends of the girl
that the charges preferred by Dud-
ding were the result OF her refusal
to listen to his attentions, and a
damage suit against budding was
threatened.
Yesterday budding went to the
office of Supervisor Chapman to en-
deavor to effect a settlement of the
affair He alleges that Chapman at
tempted to kill him with Ratchet,
and he pulled his pistol and fired in
self-defense.

ELECTRO-CHENHSTRY
Industry Still in Its Infancy OF
Greatest Value to the World.

Electricity was first produced in
large quantities by chemical action,
Volta, an Italian physician, made
the first chemical battery more than
a hundred years ago and at that
early date began the study of electro
chemistry. The scientists of that day
noted the effect of electricity on
chemicals, metals and other mater
ials.
Volta had no sooner perfected his
battery than huge voltaic cells were
assembled in every city in Europe.
Great volumes of current were OBJ
tanned in this way, rising to pres
sures which were extreme for those
early days of electricity. This first
steady flow of electricity was used
chiefly for chemical experiments as
no one dreamed then of the tele-
graph the telephone or the electric
power Nicholson parted water into
hydrogen and oxygen gases. Davy
separated sodium from soda, and
potassium from potash; electricity
first fused each salt then jostled its
molecules into atoms. 1t was then
that Davy passed from chemistry
into illumination and perfected the
first electric lamp
The art of plating inferior metals
with gold and silver was discovered
and commercialized long before the
first electrical generator was pro,
duced. In fact 1t was the electro
plating factories, such as those OF
Providence and Birmingham, de-
handing cheap electricity in theiI
wholesale deposition of metals from
solutions that gave the first great
stimulus to the Invention of the
electric dynamo.
The manufacture Of aluminium by
electricity began only about twenty
years ago and is now the largest
eIectro-chemical industry. All Of
this valuable metal, noted for great
strength and light weight, is separ'
