 SEE MORE TROUBLE Newman-Pritchard Feud Seems
 to Be Still Alive GOVERNOR NOEL ADVISED Committee Has Been Appointed by the Governor to Raise Funds for the
 Erection of Monument to
 Bishop Galloway.

Jackson, Miss, June A.-(Special. )-Cit- izens ot Franklin county who have been in Jackson during the past few days are decidedly of the opinion the New man-Pritchard feud has not seen its last killing, and that the troubles in and around Meadville are by no means ended. For good and sufficient reasons these vis- itors do not wish their names mentioned in this connection. They do not care to get mixed up in these troubles one way or the other. but inasnuch as representa- lives of both factions have been here re- gently, and both tell the same story, there is bound to be something in the fears that are expressed
 Governor Noel has been advised that Boyd, one of the men implicated in the Newman Reynolds killing last week, and who was reported few days since as having surrendered to the authorities, has not surrendered at all and is still at large.
 It is now feared that there is going to be a fresh outbreak when the special term of court is called and it is not inn probable that troops will be called for to preserve the peace during the trial of the men charged with the killing of Dr. New man and Silas Reynolds.
 It is also stated there is likely to be trouble when the special election is or dered, or before the contest for the suc- cession in the office of chancery clerk, made vacant by the death of Dr. New man, is ended.
 Governor Noel is keeping advised of the
 
 ports from both factions, and hopes to be able to keep down any outbreak when court meets.
 Governor Noel has issued a proclama- tion naming John G. McGuire of the Ya- zoo Herald, D. A. Fitzgerald of the vicks- burg Herald and Frederick Sullens of the Jackson News, as the committee charged with the raising of funds for the erection of a monument to the memory of the late Bishop Charles B. Galloway in the state capitol
 This movement was inaugurated by the Mississippi Press association at the recent convention in Vicksburg, and a resolution adopted calling on the governor of the state to name a committee or commission
 
 from the Press association called on the governor last week and presented the res- olution adopted by the association. The governor promised to do as requested, and after consulting with members of the family of the late bishop. proposed to leave the selection of the commission to them They named the gentlemen men, tioned above, and the governor made the appointment, at the same time issuing his proclamation telling of the wonderful ser vices of Bishop Galloway and calling on the people of the state to subscribe liber- | ally to the fund so that fitting testi- monial to his many virtues may be erect | ed at the capitol of the state. | VIII Fowler, a white man convicted of l murder and sentenced to the penitentiary l for life by the Panola county court, and | whose case was recently affirmed by the i supreme court, spends tonight in the | IIinds county jail, and tomorrow will be | taken to the convict farm in Rankin coun- | ty A reception, almost family reunion, l awaits MT Fowler at the farm, as his | son and son-in-law MT. Burnett, are | already there and for their participation l in the same crime. The elder Fowler | had three daughters. Several young men were camped near his farm getting out | staye timbers and one by one his daugh- l ters eloped and married the stave getters. | After two of them had fled the parental | roof the old man swore that the third l daughter. a girl of tender years, should moi go the same route. As usual love | lauphed at the locksmith, but laughed | once too often as the old man and his | bovs shot and killed the wooer and buried l his body in a sinkhole. where 1t was after l ward discovered by his friends.
