Ex Governor Bullock’s theory on the negro vote sparks debate
Ex Gov Bullock in Detroit proposes congressional inquiries into district votes to disqualify seats as a lever to shift elections and compel black turnout. The plan draws sharp criticism as unjust to Southern voters and unlikely to be supported by Republicans. Laurence Oliphant, English official and writer, dies in London after a storied career across Canada, the United States, and Asia.

The piece also notes the Indianapolis Dudley case status, Senate confirmation issues for Leon Bailey, and Haiti’s surrender of an American vessel. Alabama iron output rises sharply, ranking fourth nationwide behind Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Illinois.
