MUCH INTEREST WAS MANIFESTED Interesting Talks Are Made By Planters. Congressman Latimer Elected Pres ident of the New Body. The first wheat growers convention ever held in South Carolina began at Greenwood Tuesday morning. Six hundred farmers were in attendance aud the convention was conducted tip on the lines of the recent Macon, Ga. t meeting. Hon. A. C. Latimer, con gressman from the Greenwood district, and a wealthy farmer, was elected president, and N. A. Craig, president of the Craig Roller Mill at Greenwood, was elected president. Among those in attendance were some of the most prosperous and suc cessful agriculturists in the state, while there wero others who hail never raised wheat, the latter of whom were present to learn, and listened intently to the advice of their more than ex perienced brethren. Two farmers who farm in that sec tion, gave their experiences at the morning session. They agreed that wheat can be raised at no more cost than cotton and there is good money in wheat. With land carefully pre pared, twenty-five bushels of wheat is an average yield and little fertilizer is necessary to produce a larger yield. At the afternoon session the address of the day was delivered by C. H. Jor dan, of Georgia, whose remarks were well received. He gave valuable in structions and advice. Short talks were made by numbers of planters, detailing their experience with wheat and the best method of cultivating and raising the grain. A permanent organization was form ed with Congressman Latimer as pres ident and N. A. Craig, secretary. The committee on constitution consists of E. M. Seabrook, Charleston; S. H. McGhee, Greenwood; J. A. Peterkin, Orangeburg; J. H. Wharton, Laurens; J. F. Breeden, Marlboro; L. J. Wil liams, Edgefield; W. T. J. Cunning ham, Chester. This committee will arrange meetings for next year. WHITECAPS WHIP NEGROES. Section Around I’lioenljr. South Carolina, Experiences a Keittn of Terror. For more than a week past a gang of so-called whitecaps has been almost every night whipping negroes in Greenwood county, S. C. The section between Greenwood and Phoenix is a fine farming country, and is largely tenanted by negroes who rent from white landlords. It was at Phoenix, in that com munity, thickly settled by negroes, that the election riot between the blacks and whites took place last November. Since then among lower class of whites there has been an un relenting disposition to drive out the negroes. Monday night a week ago the whip ping began. Negro houses were visit ed and the inmates taken out and beaten. Several nights the past week this was repeated, and a wide terri tory has been covered by the white caps. The negroes are said to be in a state of terror, and many spend the nights in the woods and swamps,while others seek protection at the houses of their white landlords. On last Saturday night 200 negroes spent the night in Greenwood, and many of them have never returned to their homes, fearing to do so. The better class of white people de plore the Btate of affairs, and until now the matter has been kept quiet, but Tuesday the sheriff appealed to Gov ernor McSweeney for assistance, stat ing that as chief peace officer of the county, he was powerless to suppress the lawlessness. The negroes are afraid to give information, and certain white men have been threatened if they take action against the white caps. Woodward a Lieutenant Colonel. The members of the First battalion of the Fifth regiment of the Georgia militia held a battalion drill at Atlanta Tuesday night and afterwards elected Park Woodward to the lieutenant col onelcy of the regiment.

A special from Manila says: The Twelfth infantry left Calulet at sunrise Wednesday aud advanced up the rail way, Captain Evans’ battalion deployed to the right of the track aud Captain Wood’s to the left. Two companies remained on the track with the artil lery. The insurgents Were found well intrenched in front of the town, the trenches having been dug within a few’ days and since the occupation of Calu let. At a distance of 1,500 yards the Filipinos opened fire. Their force was estimated by Colonel Smith at 1,500, although the residents afterwards said it exceeded these figures by a thou sand. The enemy sent heavy volleys against the whole American line. Most of their shooting, as usual, was high, but they concentrated their heaviest fire down the track upon the artillery. Colonel Smith kept the whole line moving rapidly, with frequent rushes. The insurgents attempted to flank Cap tain Evans aud therefore two compa nies were sent to the right and drove them back. Unable to stand our continuous vol leys, the Filipinos abandoned the trenches and retreated through the town northward. It appears that they had only received their supply of am munition Wednesday morning. Had they been attacked sooner they could have made little resistance. The intense heat caused much suf fering among the Americans. SOUTHERN PROGRESS. List of Mew Industrie* Kgtablluhed the l’nst Week.

LABOR! STILL LIVES Thi Wound Inflicted On Dreyfus’ Lawyer May Not Be Fatal. AFFAIR INJURES THE CAPTAIN’S CASE Attempted A*inlimt ion Cause* No Halt In tli Court Proceeding*. Notwith standing Labori So Requested. It was announced about the close of court at Reunes, France, Monday afternoon that M. Labori, counsel for Dreyfus, who was shot from ambush early that morning, might live. The wound iu the lower part of the back is serious, however, and even should he recover, he may be partially par alyzed. Madame Labori is with her husband constantly, although almost prostrated by the shock. The stalwart counselor has borne his intense suffering man fully. Labori’s first word after being shot. was to send a message to suspend the sitting of the cour*. The excitement caused at the Lycee was intense, as might bo imagined un der the intense strain of factional hat red, and it was necessary at one time for the gendarmes to interpose be tween the excited spectators who pre cipitated a fight in the courtroom. The shooting robbed the morning session of the Dreyfus conrtmartial of its paramount interest. The murderer, apparently, chose the day for the at tempt, because it was anticipated that M. Labori would crush General Mer cier, the former minister of war, with his cross-questioning. The attack on Dreyfus through the person of his most effective counselor was wholly unexpected as was shown by the lack of precautions against it. How seriously it may affect the pris oners chance before the court is yet doubtful, but it is sure to renew the high tension between the opposing factions both at Rennes and Paris. M. Labori figured in the defense of Zola and made a national reputation by bis cross-examinations and his im passioned speech, and was to have cross-examined General Mercier, the bitter enemy of Dreyfus, at Monday’s session of the court. Mercier was minister of war iu 1894 when Dreyfus was tried by courtmartial, convicted and exiled from France. It was al leged that in the cross-examination M. Labori would develop a plot behind the Dreyfus affair that would not only shock France, but all Europe. While Labori’s assailant has not yet been captured, the story behind the assault may furnish a sensation that will cli max even the army scandals that have preceded it. M. Labori is one of the ablest law yers in France. He married an Amer ican.
