NEGRO RETURNS FIRE.
Police Used Pistol to Scare fugitiVe
Into Hating.

Petersburg. Va Feb. 17.-Quite
bit ,of excitement was caused sat
urday evening in the vicinity of the
nolice station when a negro, known
as "Yellow," resisted arrest and
fired pistol shot at Sergeant Payne
and Detective Eanes of the city po',
lice force. The two officers made an
effort to arrest the negro on a
charge of carrying concealed weap-
ons When he saw them coming ne
ran down Cuthbert's alley with the
two policemen in close pursuit. IN
an effort to attract the attenlon OF
police headquarters and to frlghten
the negro, Sergeant Payne fired a
shot into the air and when ne dld
the fleeing negro turned and fired
noint blank at the officers. The SER
aeant returned the fire, the second
shot taking effect, but the fugitive
was not sufficiently wounded to halt
tbe chase. He turned up Market
street and through the stable yarc
of Captain Heath where ne dsap'
peared.
The officers exerted every effort tc
find him. but he had made good his
escape The sergeant declared that
when the gun was turned upon him
it appeared to be much larger thar

closely the mouth of cannon.
The police believe that they vii
eventually succeed in capturing the
fugitive, though he has eluded ar

Richmond Feb. 17.-Anofher set
of bills providing for the election
of judges by the people has been Of
fered in the House. The bills were
introduced by Delegate Price, OF

Judges as it sees fit. The bills are
in the nature of constitutional
amendments.
Should the bills be approved the
Legislature, which will have the Sc
lection of the method by which the
Judges are to be chosen, may elect

Petersburg, Va, Feb. 17.-Char!es
Lewis, colored, was instantly killed
and Edward Creath seriously IN
iured at the Dixie Peanut Com
