SWEATT HAS GOOD CHANCE
For Recovery And Attorneys For His Assailants Will
 Ask Hearing.

MllLOH CWeaCC, WlCn TWO SnOC
 gun wounds and three 22 Win chester rife balls in his body,
 stands a good chance of recov- cry. He was brought to New port Saturday, after his wounds had been dressed by Dr o. E. Jones and now occupies a roo T
 in the Planters House, where he is being attended by Doctors Jones and Walker.
 When visited by a reporter of the Independent Monday after noon, he talked freely of his con- dition and the circumstances leading up to the shooting. He said he had only one degree of fever and while his lower limbs and bowels seem paralyzed, he had every confidence in his re- covery and was feeling well.
 The gun wounds were in the shoulder and arm and not se-I rious, while the three rifle bull lets entered the left side toward the back and one of them was thought to have entered the bowels. For awhile an examina-I tion under an X-ray was contem-i plated, but Sweatt has thus far been getting along so well, that this has not been done. He isI waited upon by his wife and her father and mother, MT and Mrs Rufus Johnson of Swifton.
 Hearing For Three Men. I
 James H. Phillips, who wasl| brought to Newport and jailed early Saturday morning byI Sheriff Neal, now has the conn pany of two other men implicat- ed in the shooting. One of them is Roy Phillips, the seventeen year old son of James Phillips, and the other a hired hand from Oklahoma, whom they call Sam, but whose last name the Phil lips did not know. He has only been here a week and did not take a hand in the shooting, though he was standing at the barn whn the shots were fired and ran out to where the trouble according to the wound ed man. The hired man made no attempt to stop the shooting says Sweat, but did come and assist his wife in caring for him and getting him into a comfort able position from the fence cor ner, where he (Sweatt) fell.
 Roy. Phillips is charged with firing the shots from the rifle, 1 while his father used the shot gun. They have employed Pril- lips, Hillhouse & Boyce to de- fend them and a hearing will be l asked Tuesday before one of the local justices of the peace to secure bail for their clients.

MORE JEWS EXPELLED.


YUzoVKA, Russia. Oct. 8.-By an
order of the Governor all Jews In the
province OF Yekaterinoslav are subject
to expulsion with the following excep-
tons: First. those living in the prov
ince since May 10. 1882; second. artisans
and others having permits OF residence
from the Governors chancery: third,
those resident since Aug. II. 1905. II an
order of expulsion against them has al
ready been set aside by the Governors
chancery. and fourth. those who have
changed to n rural residence between
May IS. 1882, and Jan. II. 1883.
Many OF those thus subject to expul.
sion are In a critical position. 40 the
sudden expulsion prevents a liquidation
OF their affairs. and to avoid financial
ruin some are adopting tho Russian
faith. Special oficials will be sent
through the province to control the reg.
istration, and all laxity In this matter
will be punished BY the dismissal OF
the guilty ones.
