Mound City, III, July 31.—Mounted on fait horses and having In their midst a manacled, frightened negro for whole Ufa a mob'was clamoring, of ficers from Mounds reached here last night, thus preventing a lynching and probably a bloody battle between the whites and blacks. The prisoner was the alleged slayer of Homer A. Harris, a white man who was killed at Ullln Sunday. The pris oner was taken to Mounds, but last MORE THAN SI,000 PAID IN POLICE COURT FINES DURING SESSION MON DA Y Jl,055.75. v This amount In actual cash was paid Into the city treasury Monday In police court fines for that one day, breaking all previous hlgh-watqr records of the city tribunal. ‘ t The total fines Imposed will exceed this amount to a considerable figure, the balance unpaid being represented by work In the streets by city convicts. The exact amount of fines imposed la not known, the figures not having been compiled as yet. During the two sessions of court a total of 119 cases were disposed of. Hecordef Broyles not being able to leave the bench until late In the after noon. The grind and the resultant amount of cash fines paid made the greatest day In the police court since its establishment.. By the time the day's work was completed, both Judge Broyles and Clerk Preston were tired out and hastened to their homes to ob tain a little rest. REPUBLICANS WILL CARRY TENNESSEE, SAYS O'GRADY "The Republicans will stampede the state of Tennessee In the coming gub ernatorial election. H. Clay Evans will __ elected by a majority so big P.!? h A ® ™ 0 . b c0mmenc . ed father with that not a mathematician In Tennes see can count him out. And besides that, I think he will get a square deal this time." • Michael O'Orady, of fhattanooga, who Is In Atlanta on business connect ed with the Investigation of the of ficials of the Southern Cotton Asso ciation, smiled pleasantly as he crossed his legs In the Piedmont rotunda and predicted that Tennessee would go Re publican. Mr. O'Orady Is not a big man In the matter of pounds and ounces, but be tips the scales In East Tennessee politics for a ton or two. He Is -pne of the leaders of the Brownlow faction of Republicans In that state, and his confidence In the election of H. Clay Evans, the old-time enemy of ''Boss'' Brownlow, Indicates that the warring factions have burled the hatchet and smoked the pipe of peace, at least until after next November. It has been so many years since Tennessee has had a Republican gov ernor that most men have forgotten It., The narrowest escape was In 1894. when this same • Evans gave Peter Turney a race so close that a contest was Inaugurated In the legislature. The Republicans have always claimed that Evans was "counted out" In that race, while the Democrats maintained stout ly that the East Tennessee Republicans voted dead men, goats and raxor-back hogs In the election and the total vote was only limited by the capacity of the ballot boxes. Mr. O’Orady be lieves that the time Is ripe for Evans to reach the capltol and stay there two years, or perhaps four. "The Brownlow and Evans factions, are perfectly harmonious now," con tinued Mr. O’Orady. "The Democrats who split over the Cox-Patterson nom ination race are still split. I honestly believe that Evans will stampede .the the avowed purpose of taking him from Jail and hanging him. Two hundred negroes selxed all the firearms they could lay their hands on, and assem bled to prevent the • lynching, nnd It looked as If a bloody battle could not be averted. The officers, however, prevented the clash by removing the prisoner to this city. Two other negroes, alleged to have been participants In the murder of Harris, have not been captured. OPENED TOOLBOX' LOOKINGJFOR LIQUOR In confessing that they broke open a tool box at the Fulton Bag & Cotton Mills Saturday night, Joe Lowe, David Presley and David Barber, three small white boys, tried Tuesday morning be fore Recorder Broyles, said they were trying to And some Manor, The trio was bound over to the state courts on the charge of burglary and their bond Axed at $100 each. An ef fort will be made to place them In the county reformatory. The arrests were made by Special Officer Reese, of the cotton mills. EXPORT COTTON TRADE IS SUBJECT OF STUDY Special to The Georgian. Charlotte, N. C„ July 31—William Whlttam, editor of The American Cot ton Manufacturer, of this city, who Is a member of the commission of two, named by the department of agricul ture to make a tour of the world, to study openings for American cotton, today started on his long trip, which will last at least twelve months. Mr. Whlttam will first go to Wash- Isgton, and thence to New York, sail ing the middle of August for England. He will begin his Investigations and dbservatlons on the British Isles, and travel the western countries of Europe, making a close study of conditions and ascertaining how American goods can best be Introduced, what kinds and grades are wanted and everything that will be of any value to the American cotton mill man and dealer In cotton and textile products In finding new markets. After completing Europe. Mr. Whlt tam will probably be sent direct to the South American Atlantic coast repub lics. Will Give Smith Ovation. Special to The Georgian. Columbus, Ga., July 31.—The fact that Hoke Smith Is to speak here on Wednesday evening Is creating consid erable Interest In this city, and the friends of that gentleman are eagerly awaiting the event of his appearance here. ' Special to The Georgian. Columbus, Ga.. July 31.—A negro business men's league has been organ- lied here by Fred R. Moore, of New York. It is a part of the league of which Booker T. Washington Is presi dent. htate and be elected by a big ma Jority. “There Is one element which forms a problem. M. R. Patterson, the Demo cratic nominee, has made his race an promises that he would Institute cer tain reforms for which the Republican party has been clamoring for years. The two candidates therefore stsnd on the same platform in many respects. Many people will wonder whether It Is better to elect n Democrat who will have the legislature In sympathy with htm and who can carry out these changes or a Republican who will de sire them and yet be he|pless In the face of a hostile legislature. "For Mr. Evans, If elected, will be In an awkward position. A Democratic legislature can strip htm of every ves tlge of authority within 48 hours after convening. The election machinery, which Js now In the hands of the gov ernor, the appointment of election com missioners, for Instance, can be taken from a Republican governor at once by the legislature. The election of a Re publican will not mean an entire change of power by any means." While Mr. O'Grady did not take up specific reasons why he thinks Evans will carry the state, It Is known that the negro vote will be a great factor In the election of the coming fall. Ten nessee has a negro vote of nearly 70,- 000, and this Is almost solidly for H. Clay Evans, who was exceedingly free with negro appointments during his service as United States pension com missioner. He Is worshipped by the Tennessee negro, and, It is said, that the largest colored vote ever polled In that state will be turned In at the com ing election. The negro registration In Tennessee has been very large, according to re ports from that state, and It Is stated that the Republicans are making pre parations to pay poll taxes wherever It Is necessary. The negro, who has had a back seat In the political synagogue for a number of years, moved up In the amen corner as soon as the Hon. H. Clay Evans climbed to the pulpit. DISAPPEARS; ANXIOUS WIFE ASXS POLICE TO FINE The police, have been asked to find J. R. Rhodes, of 80 Franklin street, who Is reported to have been missing from his home since Saturday.

Saturday The Georgian published a atory announcing the marriage of Robert Wal lace, center fielder on the Atlanta team, to Miss Lea Thomas. Since that time Wal lace, according to local papers, haa denied the atory and declared that be baa been married seven years. The following are the facta In the case Last Saturday one of The Georgian's re porters learned that a marriage of Interest to the Atlanta fans bad been performed, but could not get a line on tbe facta names. Thereupon he hied himself to the office of the board of health, where all mar riage certificates have to be filed within 43 bbura after the performance of the cere mony under heavy penalty. Here ho found cerfllcate of the marriage of "Robert Wal lace, baseball player, aged 25 years, home Louisville, Ky. f to “Miss Lena Thomaa, aged 23 years, home Btaunton, Va." The marlrage certificate waa signed by Judge 8. II. Landrum, who, however, refused to talk of the marriage until after tbe pub!! cation of The Georgian's story. Late gaturday afternoon after the ball game waa over Judgo Landrum atated to the same reporter that he had performed the ceremony on Friday and showed the re porter the marriage license Issued by tbe ordinary’s office. Judge Landrum atated that he had been asked by the contracting parties to make no mention of the matter, and he waa urn der the Impression that Wallaco gave at a reason the fact that he would probably lose his position If It were known that he had married before the close of the season, and that thta would cost him In the neigh borhood of $100 per month. Of course there was the possibility that there might be two Bob Wallaces of Louis ville and on the chance that there was a mistake In Identity Wallace of the Atlanta team was communicated with over the phone Tuesday morning. The writer stated that a reporter for The Georgian had run across the marriage cer tificate of a man named Bob Wallace and he waa about to explain that be wanted to corect the paper's error provided It wae some other Wallace. At thle etage In the game, however, Mr. Wallace hung up the receiver with the remark that he “didn't give a damn what any msn found."
