MOBILE. Ala . April o.—Walter Clay-
ton. a negro, who was serving nt the
stockade of the Hand dumber Company
for manslaughter, late Saturday after-
noon criminally assaul.ed Mrs Joseph
White, aged 2" years, mid was lynched
last night by a mob of seventy-five men
outside the limits of Hay Minette.
The assault occurred at the woman's
home, six miles below Moxley. Clayton
entered the house, it is said, choked Mrs?
White, and accomplished his purpose.
The negro returned to the convict camp, |
where he was arrested Saturday night. ,
The negro told tlie officers not to t»ke
him barn to the scent- of his crime, as j
he committed it and it was not necessary
to have him identified.
The officers hurried him to Bay, Min-
ette, county seat of Baldwin County. As
they approached the front gate of the
Jail seventy-five men arose trom behind
a fence and took charge of the negro,
dragging him and the deputy yards be-
fore it was discovered that the men were
handcuffed together. The deputy was
then released and the negro carried away.
Late this afternoon ihe Sheriff was
still looking for the body of the negro.
Clayton was given a fifteen-year sen-
tence in (he Mobile courts last summer on
a charge of manslaughter, it being
charged that he robbed and murdered
John McKenzie, an old white man, in
this city on Christmas Eve, 190H. He was
a model prisoner at the stockade and
was mide a trusty.
YOUNG NEGRO IS LYNCHED.
Killed White Boy and Is Taken From
Officers and Hanged.
WESSON. Miss., April 5.—John Burr, a
young negro, was lynched here today
by about thirty men for the murder of a
12-year-old white boy.
Last night about dark, according to
Burr's confession and the story uf an
eye-witness, he was fishing in a mill
pond when Earl Smith, the 12-year-old
son of J. W. Smith, a prosperous
planter, approached and began a con-
versation. Hurr was an employe of the
boy's father and he said to the lad;
"Look up, look at the bird!" As young
Smith gazed skyward the negro shot him
In the back of the head with a shotgun.
Burr admitted the shooting, but said
it was an accident. He threw the boy's
body into the millpond and started to
escaoe.
During the night he was caDtured by
officers, and the Sheriff was on his way
to the jail with the prisoner when just
as the Sabbath morning dawned a party
of about thirty men appeared and took the
negro away from the officers. The cap-
ture was made on a county road, and
the negro was quickly hanged from a
tree. Several shots were fired to hasten
his death. The body was then taken
down and turned over to the proper
authorities for burial.
Good order was preserved throughout
the lynching.

XmWHIIIIIIIIIIUII
TOKIO. Tuesdav, March 10-A few
days ago Count Okumn received a depu-
tation from the Japanese residents of
Sacramento, Cal , and other Japanese
who solicited his views on the emigration
problem.
The Count is reported by the vernacular
papers to have said that it was very dif-
ficult to find out wherein lay the object
of the dispatch of the American battle-
ship squadron to the Pacific at this time
A good deal had been made of it by the
European press, and It was looked upon
as an occurrence of unusual significance.
Japan, however, had received the assur-
ince of the United tftatei Government
that it was not intended as a menace to
Japan, but was merely undertaken for
the purpose of training officers and men.
Nevertheless, whatever the real object of
the movement might be, it is indisputable
that Japan's immigration policy had been
considerably affected thereby, and It was
not easy to sever entirely the dispatch of
the fleet from the policy Japan had lately
pursued toward the I nited States in this
connection.
The analogous problem in the Dominion
of Canada had likewise a bearing upon
the case. England was under obligations
to protect the interests of her colony.
The Count was, therefore, of the opinion
that the British Government had tendered
to the Tokio Cahine? certain advice,
either directly or indirectly, in view of
which it had become impossible for the
Japanese Government to adhere strictly
to what might be termed a strong for-
eign policy, and the country had been
compelled to acquiesce to a retrain ex-
tent in the conditions obtaining abroad.

General Passenger Agent Lupton
Inquired Only Regarding the
Legality of This.
ANSWERS LETTER OF
COMMISSIONER COLQUITT
Geo V Lupton general passenger agent
of the Shi Antonio »v Aransas Pass Hail-
way. >eKterila> replied to a letter of Rail-
road Commissioner Colquitt concerning
rates to the convention of volunteer
firemen. In this Mr Lupton says It
was not the intention of the road to
withdraw any rate, the main point at
issue being tin urn half cent a tnlle rate
for delegates Mr Lupton asks whether
or not the issuance «»t such a rate to
the exclusion of others would be dis-
crimination In fa\« r of certain Individ-
uals Ills letter follows:
"San Antonio, Tex April .*>, 190S.- Mr.
0 |t. Colquitt, Railway Commis-
sioner. Austin. Texas Dear Sir I read
your l« iter of April in the San Antonio
Daily Express this morning before com-
ing to my office.
"It you are «orrecth reported In The
Express. I beg to ,isk that vou kindly
read tn> letter again of April 3 to Com-
missioner Storey and yourself, and see
If it was tn\ intention to withdraw our
willingness to partlcii>.it« in |«»w rates
to Waco, account of the State Firemen s
Association ?
"In my previous letter of March 31
1 stated that 'so far as our line was
concerned we would be willing to name
a rate of one-half cent a mile traveled
for the round trip, but would not be
wlllliiK to makt a maximum rate of $'•
Question ot Discrimination.
"In the letter above referred to I
cheerfully acknowledged that the firemen
had rendered valuable assistance to the
public at large, and I thought that they
were entitled to favorable consideration.
1 also stated, up to the time of the anti-
pass law. our company had cheerfully
granted free transportation to one chief
and "i" delegate <>t' eat h i ompany located
at different points on our line, and that
1 was sorry to see this cut out.
"The main point of mv letter of April
3 was stated several times, but it seems
as »f it was construed t«» mean that
we would withdraw our willingness to
participate in a one-half cent per mile
mile rate as previousK suggested.
'Tin question asked was tills: 'Inas-
much as the law compels that no favorit-
ism, or special privileges, be given any
set «tf people to the exclusion of tiie
other, we have been compelled in make
an open convention rate apply to the
public, as well as to the families of
firemen and. after more careful con-
sideration (not being a lawyer!. I do not
see how we would be permitted to name
a one-half-cent per mlb rate for the ex-
clusive use of one fire chief and one
delegate from each fire company without
making the same rate applicable to the
public would not this be a discrimina-
tion. even though it would be approved
by the Honorable Texas Railway Com-
mission ?'
Powers of Commissicn.
"It is very much to be regretted that
the laws have cut out certain privileges
that railroads have heretofore granted
the public none more deserving than the
volunteer firemen. It is not a question
of revenue so far as rates are concerned,
but a question of law and precedent.
We recognize the valuable assistance ren-
dered by the volunteer firemen; at ihe
same time we could not he expected to
put ourselves in an attitude of violating
tlie law and establishing a very bad
precedent.
"Your honorable body will cheerfully
release us from the question of prece-
dent and promise not to use it in future,
but the main point Is whether or not the
commission has the power to approve
of a rate which would be applicable to
only on.- organization and which could
or might h« considered a discrimination.
"What do you think about It0
"From the above it ought to he seen
that we are in favor of and will cheer-
fully acquiesce in any rate that is named
by individual lines and approved by the
Hallway Commission for the use of the
State volunteer firemen. I only wish
to ask If such rates would be legal,
even though they were approved by the
Texas Railway Commission."
Of Value to Railroads.
"personally 1 believe that the firemen
should receive spt ial and exceptional
privileges because they stand alone in
their pattU ular < la s, and of untold
service to every town and community
where there is a fire department, and if
I had my way and it was legal, I would
nevt r ask such people to pay a single
cent.
1 am also in favor of exchanging
transportation courtesies with every
newspaper editor and proprietor in the
State of Texas, as well as those from
other States, provided such would be
legal; we know by years of experience
that the valuable assistance for the up-
building "t L'exas as given by the news-
papers cannot be equalled by any other
source.
I -'lease do not class the writer with
narrow-mindedness; on the contrary, we
are in favor of anything consistent with
good business principles and which is
legal that would add to the prosperity
of the Lone Star State. \><ir letter of
April t seems to make it clear that we
r.in legally give the tire chiefs and dele-
gales the'rates asked, and you can put
us down as being heartily in favor of it "
