Declines to Be Candidate Again
Because of New Primary
Laws Burden
[special to The Herald.l

WASHINGTON, April 9.-Accompa-
nying it with the explanation that this
was the last and conclusive word he
would have to give out on the matter,
Senator Flint this evening issued a
statement again expressing his deter
mination not to be candidate for re-
election He conveys the warmest
thanks to the friends in California who
have by word and letter urged him ro
reconsider his initial announcement,
but the campaign under the direct pri-
mary law is far beyond his means, he
says, and he is unwilling to accept
financial help from others.
Motley Flint, the senator's brother, is
In town. He came from California
freighted with facts and figures to
show the senator that prospects of re-
election would be most favorable, but
he found his brother unswervable.

started towards the river and went
field and continued down the river
Going up into the air $50 feet he
crossed an interurban bridge and later
the Eads bridge, on which $4,000 per-
sons were standing. He continued
down the river and landed in Illinois,
seven miles below his starting point.
He made the trip in ten minutes.
On the upward flight he went under
the Eads bridge and narrowly missed
ferry-boat as she emerged from a
smoke cloud. Before he left the river
channel he flew under the Interurban
bridge and landed on the same spot
from which he started.
Part of the time the aviator was lost
in the smoke clouds. He held his
machine at all times at right angles
to the 13-mile wind.

CROP CONDITIONS
IN S. MISSISSIPPI
Picayune's Weekly Summary Shows
This Territory to be in Most
Excellent Shape.

The New orleans Picayune's week
ly crop condition summary, published
today, is very gratifying to citizens
of South Mississippi, especially the
"cut-over' territory, as it shows this
section to be in better condition than
any other part of the state.
Reports from practically all the
towns in this district show that crop
and weather conditions are better
than at this time last year, and pros
poets for abundant crops are very
gratifying.
e By comparison, the Picayune's sum-
mary shows South Mississippi to be
in better condition than any other
section of the state.
While the boil weevil has appeared
in some counties, it has not shown up
in sufficient numbers to create any
great alarm or do much damage to
the crop. There appears to be an
unusually heavy crop of corn and 9th
er grain, while other crops are shown
to be in satisfactory condition.

much VALUABLE GOODS
were APPROPRIATED
Arrest of Negro in Jackson Threw
Light on Robberies Which Railroad
Had Not Been Able to Account
For.

The arrest in Jackson of Edward
Williams, peg-leg negro, charged
with stealing harness, seems to have
turned up gang of car thieves which
has been operating on the Mississippi
Central railroad for several months,
and which the railroad officials had
not been able to run down.
Advices from Jackson state that
Williams was simply acting as a
fence" for the crew of a freight
train, including the fireman, conduc-
tor, engineer, brakeman and hagman,
and some of the stolen goods, it is
said, were recovered in Williams
home in Brookhaven
For several weeks, it is said, ship
ments of goods have turned up short,
as a consequence of which the rail
road has had to pay some heavy
claims against it. Efforts were made
to run down the thieves, but not even
trace of the guilty persons could be
found. Only short time ago 80 suits
of clothes were stolen from one box
car, and nine Of these we're recovered
at Williams house when he was ar
rested.
Williams, it is said, had been op-
Grating along the Mississippi Central
Illinois Central and Great Northern
roads for some time, stealing harness
and such things, which he would carry
to Jackson and other points and sell
to negro draymen at a very small
price. At the time of Williams arrest
in Jackson it was not known that he
was wanted in Brookhaven or that he
was connected with the car robberies
but a Brookhaven officer who heard
of his arrest went to Jackson and re-
lated the details of this story.
The amount of the thefts from the
freight cars of the Mississippi Central
is not positively known, but 1t is said
to be up in the hundreds of dollars
The gang, headed by the conductor
1t is said, had been operating for sew
eral months, and some good hauls
were made.
The crew of the freight train would
break the seal, it seems, take out the
goods and secrete them for Williams
who would dispose of them, dividing
the spoils with the conductor, who
would, in turn, make a division among
the train crew.
General Freight Agent Foley, when
questioned concerning the matter this
afternoon, stated that he had lust
been talking with the sheriff at Brook
haven and had been informed that the
conductor mentioned in connection
with the robberies had been arrested
His name was given as A. G. Ray
Mr.. Foley did not know whether OF
not there had been other arrests made
but expects further developments in
the near future.
