PRISONERS ONB|G
ISLAND SEEK TO
KILL BILLY WOODS
Two MurdererS and One Robber
In Conspiracy To
Murder JaiIer
SLAYER FREED BY GOVERNOR
HEAD OF MURDER0US GANG
Band Steals Weapons But Is Run
Down and Captured BY
Guards

A serious outbreak of prisoners at
the Keemoku road camp on the island
of Hawaii was reported by wireless
yesterday. Three members of the pri.
son gang at work on the belt road
are said to have entered into con
spiracy to attack deputy sheriff "Bil.
ly' Woods, who is in charge of the
gang! Woods was absent when they
called at his cottage, and the three
cOnspirators forced open the door of
his house and secured weapons.
The men we're shot at by guards as
they left, but none of them was hit.
All three were subsequently captured.
They will probably be tried on charges
growing out Of their Jail break The
wireless reports say that during the
shooting a Porto Rican was wounded
by white prisoner guard, but he will
recover, according to the reports
Murderers and Robber
The three men involved in the con-
spiraey against Woods, who may owe
his life to the fact that he was not
in his cottage when it was attacked,
are c. J. Lyons, sentenced for ten
years in 1913 for the killing of a Jap.
anese hack driver in Iwelei; II. L. Fer
guson, sentenced to be hanged, but
granted Communication. for murder of
Officer Abreu in 1913, and John Mon.
roe, colored, who is under sentence
of four years for robbery.
There are reports Of other troubles
at the Jail, which indicate that the up
rising may not be over, but accord.
ing to the advices received up to last
night, the matter is settled. The three
leaders who attempted escape are safe
in Hilo Jail.
Ferguson, the murderer, was only
saved from hanging by a communication
Of his sentence. He was convicted .of
murder in the first degree and sentenc-
ed to be hanged according to law, but
his sentence was COMMITTED by Govern
or Pinkham on the ground of his youth,
he being at the time only 10, and be-
cause of evidence, of mental deficiency.
Communication Unjtstifed
1.-THE Communication of the sente nee
Of Ferguson" said City Attorney A..
NJ. Brown yesterday, when he received
wireless news of the Jail outbreak,
twas entirely without any justifiea-
ton. Ferguson killed capable and
fearless police officer, in cold blood a nd
it was a mistake for Governor Pink
ham to exercise any clemency in his
ease. The verdict of murder in the
first degree was justified and should
have been carried out.
1.-THE prisoner should have been
hanged, instead of being left to at
tempt another murder. His hanging
would have had wholesome effect up
on others who might be tempted to
take chances with police officers"

OF COTTON MEN.

The Staple Cotton Shippers As
sociation yesterday became the
Southern Cotton Shippers As
sociation, and 80 members were
added to the organization at its
meeting at the Business Mems
Club.
The action in changing the nam !,
was taken to allow the association
to embrace high-class shippers O.
all kinds of cotton in The South
This broadens the scope of the as
sociation so that the shippers OF
all classes of cotton may receive
benefit from the organization.
Permanent officers and an ex-
|ecutive committee were elected
yesterday and every member was
made committee of one to solicit
members for the new organiza-
ton. Stress was laid on the fact,
however, that only shippers of
very high standing were to be
considered for membership, the
aim being to keep the association
on a high plane by accepting only
firms of known standing and
repute in the organization.
It is hoped, however, that ship
pers from all over the belt will
become affiliated with the asso-
ciation in its effort to better con.
ditions surrounding shipments OF
cotton to millers to the east anc

largely one-sided. inasmuch as
they were promulgated by the
spinners, and individual shippers
were not strong enough to cope
with the spinners' organization.
The Southern. Cotton Shippers
Association will give the shippers
the required strength to deal with
the spinners. However. the effort
on the part of the shippers will be
to cooperate with the mill men in
an effort to improve shipping
conditions to the benefit of both
shipper and spinner.

No attempt will be made at this

however, will continue t
strengthen their organization By
the addition of new firms as mem
