subject was thoroughly discussed by the
commission with a view to ascertaining
the ideas of the individual members, with
special reference to the best location and
general character of the memorial.
Designs Informally Discussed.
Several designs were informally consid-
cred, including those calling for the erec-
ton of the memorial in Potomac Park
at the western axis of the Mall; the one
contemplating the use of Union Station
plaza as a site, and the plan contem-
plating the erection of a Lincoln arch
on 10th street near Columbia road. 1t
was generally decided that each of the
could on the subject and make an indi-
vidual study Of the best method Of exc
cutting the will of Congress.
At the instance of the District Com
missioners the commission considered
general plans for securing uniformity in
the architecture of school buildings in
the District, and made an examination
of plans and specifications for the pro-
jected normal school building.

MOB GETS NEGRO AT
BALTIMORE, MD.

Baltimore, Dec. 27.-King Davis, a
negro, who last Saturday shot and
killed Frederick A. Schwarb, white,
at Fairfield, was taken from Jail at
Brooklyn, suburb, O. Baltimore ear
ly this morning and shot to death by
a mob. Davis was dragged to a spot
two hundred yards from the station
and shot through the lungs four
times. His body was not discovered
until several hours later by a passer-
by, who notified the police. No all
night guard was kept at the prison
and the authorities had no knowledge
of the affair until the body was found
and reported.
Chief Irwin started an investigation
but found no clue. The avenging
band it is thought could not have
exceeded ten persons and was formed
quietly. The mob effected an en-
trance into the Jail without attract
ing notice and went to the cell where
they found Davis asleep. Another
negro, held as a witness was unmo-
Tested. He said Davis begged for
mercy, and fought desperately, but
was silenced py blow on the head.
He was then dragged away to his
death.
No attention was paid to the shots,
as it. was thought they were fired by
Christmas merry-makers.

DOGWOOD here

Demand.

Estimates at this time are impos-
sible as to the amount of dogwood
shuttles that have been manufactured
in Mississippi and exported to Europe
1t is stated, however, that the export
figures this year will be far in excess
of the previous year
The manufacture of shuttles as an
exclusive business was never attempt
ed in Mississippi until a few years
ago, when the spinners of Europe and
of New England, after experimenting
with all other kinds of hardwood, de-
cided that Mississippi dogwood was
preferable over all others for use on
weaving, spindles. A mill was estab-
lished at Hattiesburg by Price & Nor

here and placed in the G. & s. l. hos
pital, and McInnis was brought later
on.
At the hospital this morning it
was stated that Ed Extiner was rest
ing easy and would recover. Nc
Innis is still in a precarious condition
as result of the knife wounds in
flicted by Breeland. Breeland was ar
rested yesterday morning by officer
c. E. Tucker and lodged in jail with
out bond to await the outcome Of the
condition of McInnis. He refuses to
talk very much about the difficulty
and states that he will not claim self
defense but that his action was justi-
fable
Mrs. Cora Extiner the mother of
the boy, was the only eyewitness to
the occurrence, and it is stated that
her husband was in an adjoining
room during the difficulty, drunk, and
that McInnis was also drinking.

charter of the gigantic corporation
has been filed here for approval by
Governor Noel. The corporation will
engage extensively in planting, pur-
chasing and harvesting of crops, par
ticularly dealing in cotton. 1t is un-
derstood that those who are behind
the enterprise contemplate the erec-
tion of a mill in the Southern part of
the state for the manufacture of cot
ton goods and fabrics.
1t is also understood here that a
number of New Orleans and New
York capitalists are interested with
local people in the financing of the
proposition. One of the incorporators
is l.. L. Sheuer, of New Orleans, who
is largely interested in Mississippi
enterprises. The other incorporators
are Maynard S. Mclean, of Money,
mississippi Jonas H. Levy, of New
Orleans; Charles E. Levy, New York
and William L. Lowe and J. B. Will
son. both of Money.
The charter provides that the cor.
poration may begin business when
$4,000 is subscribed to the capital
stock which has a face value Of 500
par.
Persistent rumors here are to the
effect that the corporation will start
work on a cotton seed mill to be To-
Gated near this city. 1t has also ru-
mored the corporation will erect a
modern mill on the gulf coast
These rumors are vague and have

BANK BOOKS.
NO IRREGULARITIES APPEAR
That He Wishes To Injure No Man,
And If Records Fail To Show Dis
position Of States Money to Private
Use, Suit Will Be Dropped.

Jackson, Miss, Dec. 27.-Learning
that Attorney General Hudson had
returned from Washington, where he
had been on business of the state be-
fore the United States Supreme Court,
reporter of the Clarion-Ledger
called At his Office and discussed with
him the case Of the State against Gov.
Vardaman now pending before Chan
cellor Lyell
In the course of the interview, the
reporter said to Attorney General
Hdson, Il notice that you were not at
the hearing today" when the Attor-
ney General responded:
No; on account of winding UP the
affairs of my office, l could not be
present, but was represented by my
assistants"
When asked if he had heard that
the attorneys of Gov. Vardaman, in
their arguments before Chancellor
Lyell had said the suit had been
brought forward for political effect,
the Attorney General replied:
Yes, l understand so, and regret
it; but l have this to say, before I
retire:
Il would not institute any suit
ageinst Ex-Governor Vardaman before
the election and did not do SO after
the election till l made a personal in
vestigation of the records, and found,
unexplained, in them what l conceive
to be irregularities.
Still desiring not to allow the pow-
ers OF the Attorney Generals office to
do any man a wrong, | would say. IL
Governor Vardaman's attorneys will
waive all legal formalities and show
me, or permit those in authority to do
so, his personal deposit slips, checks
and accounts with the Mississippi
Bank & Trust Company, and if none
of these records show a disposition of
the States money for his own per-
sonal use, then I will dismiss this
suit, and not allow any further prose
cution of the same against him, not
withstanding Governor Noel has en-
ployed associate counsel to assist me
in the conduct of the litigation"
