Palmetto, Ga , March 36.— A mob of masked men stormed the little house doing service as a jail here at an early hour this morning and shot uiue ne groes.

The mob rode into the town about 1 o’clock. The little house which is be ing used as a jail since the fire was near the center of the town. The guard was called on to turn over the nine ne groes held there for trial on the charge of arson. He refused and awakened his assistants. They were quickly over powered, however, and with a rush the whitecaps made for the prisoners, who had been awakened by the noise out side. They began begging for mercy, but were shot down quickly. Governor Candler was called on for troops about 4 o’clock to allay the ap prehension here and put down any up rising. The militia arrived from Atlanta at 11 o’clock and immediately reported to Mayor Arnold. They were distributed around the streets to preserve order.

Governor Oanaler has issued a proc lamation offering a reward of SSOO “for the apprehension and delivery of the first member of the mob and a further reward of SIOO for each additional per son implicated” in the killing of the negroes.

Such out rages must stop in Georgia. I will try to see to it that the members of that mob are prosecuted to the limit.” Tennesseeans Ordered Home.

He was a brave confederate soldier, going out in the Twenty-second Alabama reg iment, Company E, under Captain Northcut. He lost a limb in the war. The cyclone struck near Edwardsville about 6 o’clock. It was funnel-shaped, and had intense force, and was from 100 to 300 yards wide, aud it is esti mated that it went about 12 miles. Immediately after demolishing the Coffee family aud home the storm struck the residence of J. W. Wilder. It was completely destroyed, but he nor auy of his family were at home at the time.

It is estimated that about 50 buildings were destroyed and between 20 and 25 persons injured aud over a score of farms devastated. Alderman Parker Withdraws.

New York, March 22. —The Journal’s Manila correspondent cables today that the address to the natives of the Philip pine islands, drafted by the American commission in behalf of the United States and embodying the views of the president, has been made public. After being translated into all the native dialects it is to be disseminated through out the archipelago. The address assures the Filipinos of the intention of the Americans to de velop the powers of self government in the people. It explains that the United States has assumed international obli gations which it must fulfill and which makes it responsible to the whole civil ized world for the stable government of the Philippines. The commission, it is explained, is to interpret to tho natives the purposes and intentions of the president toward them and also suggest rite establish ment of such a government as shall suit the capacity and requirements of the Filipinos and be consistent with the in terests of the United States. *The protection of the United States is not to be exercised in any spirit of ty ranny or vengeance; but having de stroyed the Spanish power and accepted the sovereignty of, the islands, the United States is bound to restore peace in the Philippines. To this end all insurgents nre invited to lay down their arms and place their trust in the government that emanated from the oppression of Spanish rule. The majority of the commissioners incline toward to giving the Filipinos a sort of tribal or provincial local auton omy under a’central government w hich shall be military until a purely civil sys tem is proved to be feasible.
