 HARRISON, Miss, Sept. 29-Two drug crazed negroes named Walter and Will Jones, created wild scene of terror in this neighborhood last evening. They were brothers and began a reign of murder that ended in the death of three whites and seven negroes. Among the killed was Sheriff G. B. Hammett. Six whites were also dangerously wounded. After the crazy negroes had finally exhausted all their am- intuition a crowd closed in on them and they were captured. They were immediately lynched. As the entire black and white population had been very much wrought up it was feared that the trouble would continue, so the militia was ordered out and soon had the situation well in hand.

Attorney Genreal McReynoids has directed Judge R. W. Jennings to go to Valdez in November and hold a special term of court. He will try those cases in which Judge Brown is disqualified. After Judge Brown completes the term that he is now holding at Seward he will go to Valdez and open a term on October 14. Following the completion of the work of this term the special term will commence. At present Judge Jennings is presiding at Juneau. He will open a special term at Ketchi- kan on October IS. When he finishes there he will go to Valdez. It has been determined that no court will be held at Cordova this fall. The Dan Reeder case from here will come before the grand jury at
 Valdez and a number of witnesses have been subpoenaed to appear and testify. If a true bill is found it is expected that the case will at once come to trial.

James Wardell of Katalla, has taken an appeal from the decision of the commissioner of the general land office to the secretary of the interior in the matter of obtaining patent to coal lands in the Boring river fields. In the Wardell case the government charged that the applicant had failed to comply with the law, in that he had not opened up and im- proved a coal mine on the land.
 The matter came on for a hearing in the Juneau land office and Regis ter c. B. Walker and Receiver Frank A. Boyle decided in favor of the ap- plicant, holding that he had com piled with the law and was there fore entitled to patent. The com missioner in reviewing the case re- versed the local land office decision and ordered the entry cancelled. The matter will now reach the court of last resort, by going directly to the secretary of the interior.
 When in Ketchikan a week ago Governor Strong thus expressed himself on question that the Alaska Good Roads Club is vitally interested in:
 While I consider railroads as absolutely necessary, still it seems to me that roads and trails are equally so, and to this end I have asked that Congress appropriate $1,000,00O per year for the next ten years for road building, and am satisfied that such an appropriation would add to the wealth of this nation at least $100,000,000 in that time to say nothing of the future."

V. J. Dwyer, who has extensive interests at Strelna, returned last evening on the steamer Alameda from a trip outside that extended from the Pacific to the Atlantic and consumed more than two months. While in Washington he received the impression that the present admin istration is sincerely anxious to enact legislation that will have the effect of opening up Alaska. He thinks that there is no doubt about the passage of the railroad bill early in the next session of Congress, and that some definite coal policy will soon thereafter be decided upon.
 While in Seattle Mir. Dwyer came in contact with a large number of men who looked with favor upon the new placer diggings in the Chisana country. The impression prevails that sufficient work has not yet been done to indicate the extent or value of the new district But many of the old Alaskan sourdoughs are satisfied with the showing already made and have faith that the benches and new gravel creeks will show up rich pay. Many will come in after the winter freeze, while others will wait until spring.
