FEVERISH EXCITEMENT

The City in a State of Unrest Sinco
the Killing; of John Gray Foster.
Several Negroes Arrested,
Il.v Kxil'iilie Wire fiuni lln Vwiiiated Pir.
Slirevepoi t, l.a., June IB. This city
and vicinity has been in a slate of
ieierlsh oxcltenient and unrest sluie
eseiday, when John Gray l-'ostei, a
piomluent planter, was shot and killed
by Prince Hdwaids, n negro, oinploed
on the Foster plantation, ihe miles
east of this elt. Ar.ued posses of
white men have been scouring Ihe
country for miles in mind In an attempt
to captuie Kdw arils. A dozen or moie
neai oes are under airesl in Kenne
beo's stoic, and their fate tonight is
uncurtain. Foster was widely known
and ery popular, lie was a biolbei-In-law
of Governor McMillan, ol Ten
nessee, and belonged to one of the old
est families in this stale.
Theie had been bad leellng tor some
time past between tlie negiocs and
oveiseeis on tlie Foster plantation, ami
Foster was appealed to to settle the
ulfieielics. Tin- planter stinted for
the plantation, ami upon le.iihlug a
negio cabin lie was tired upon and
killed. There weie a dozen or moie
negio.s in the cabin and they bioke
and rim In all directions. The ov.'t
seei.s were illick! joined bv wh1t' cltl
yeus, and It was not long befoie all the
negiocs weie attested, a single excep
tion being Pilncc Kdwaids, who. It Is
said, did the shooting. l'osL.s weie
iiulckly lnimed ami slatted on a hunt
lor the negro, but as el lune made
no I'm ther al rests.
Then weie many w'ld i uiiuiars allo.it
thiousbout tlie day, the most sensa
tional being that the negiocs lu tin
Kennebei store weie in imminent peiil
of being lynched. This minor proved
to lie untitle, although miinv tin eats
were he-iid against the-piisnneis. Tin.
stoie wliete the negiocs ai" conllned is
guarded hy a posre of twenty-five
men aimed with Winchester rllles. and
unless seiitlnient changes the disposi
tion tonight would indicate tliat tin
majority. If not all the pilsoneis v.ll
be let off with a Ihoiongh whipping.
Hdwaids, if cnughl, will be bitineil or
lynched.
Theie is nitnli leellng against "I'm.
