His Mask Fell OFF

ONE OF THE GANG THAT Is TERRoRrzrNa NOR
FOLK DISCOVERED AND ARRESTED.
Aspecial to the New York World from Nor
folk, Va, January 81, says: Tonight the negro
element of the city is in highly excited state.
Many of their homes are barricaded, and police
protection is asked against a band of men who
began depredations Monday night and have
continued every night since. White men and
women as well as the negroes have received
attention at their hands. and the city is flooded
with letters warning people to stop their al
legged bad habits.
The police station and the magistrates Offices
have been besieged with citizens who wished
permits TO carry weapons TO protect themselves.
The high-handed work began with a raid by a
dozen men upon the house of Maud Granger.
They removed the clothing from their victims
and beat them with a large whip. During the
operations of the gang the mask fell from the
face OF one of the ringleaders, supposed to be
one Jents Barrow, employed here by promi-
nent sewing-machine firm. Several other cases
have also come to the attention Of the police
A negro was badly beaten upon the old Cliff
road: near the city, last night. Some interest
ing developments are expected tomorrow. and
more arrests are to follow. The CITY is unusu-
ally interested in the outcome of the affair.

UTTERLY WEARY OF LIFE.
The Crown Princes Intimates Knew He
Had Been Greatly Depressed.

hdu Been Uredtly depressed.
VIENNA, Feb. LIT is believed that the state
ment of the Welner Zeitung with reference to
the caown princes death is the outcome of yes
terdays cabinet meeting, at which Herr Won
Tisza expressed himself as strongly in favor of
stating the details plainly. In this view the
emperor concurred.
1t is fully confirmed that Rudolph, in con-
versing with his intimate friends during the
last few days, showed an utter WEAKNESS of
life and betrayed great nervous depression.
HERR Won T1szA CALLS ON THE EMPEROR.
Herr Won Tisza, the Hungarian prime min
lister, had an audience with Emperor
Francis Joseph to-day. Their meeting
was affecting Herr Won Tisza took
the emperor's hand and silently but warmly
pressed it. He was so deeply moved that he
could hardly express his sympathy. He urged
the emperor to seek solitude some time before
the funeral or Immediately after it. The EN-
peoror rejected this advice, and remarked that
he would not leave the remains of his son.
COURT FESTIVITIES ABANDONED IN RUSSIA.
ST. PETERSBURG, Feb. All the court fes-
rivals have been abandoned in consequence of
the death of the crown prince of Austria. The
grand dukes and members of the diplomatic
corps called at the Austrian embassy and ten
dered their coincidence.
The official Messenger publishes a black Dor
dered article on the death of the crown prince
cruel loss that Russia, whose imperial house is
united to that of Austria by personal ties of
friendship, has sustained through the death of
the Crown Prince Rudolph.
Another Painful Story.
LONDON, Feb. 1.-The Pal Nal Gazette says
it is privately informed from Vienna that Ru-
doph committed suicide because it was op-
tional with him to take his own life or to fight
a duel with the brother of a princess who is a
member of one of the highest Austrian
families, and whom he had seduced. When
concealment was no longer possible, the
princess confessed her shame to her brother,
who gave Rudolph the alternative of commit
ting suicide or fighting a duel.
The Pal Nal Gdzette further says that the
doctors who were summoned refused to sign
a certificate to the effect that Rodolfs
a great scene ensued. One of the doctors told
the Ne,V Free Press the real facts, which that
paper published.

THE CHEROKEES ALARMED.
Fearful for Their Rights in View of the
Oklahoma Agitation.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. Late reports from the
Indian territory say the Cherokees are looking
with alarm at the various meetings held along
the border with the intention of devising means
of opening the territory to settlement.
The Fort Smith convention especially puts
the Indians to thinking, and some say if civil
jurisdiction and railroads are what is wanted
why don't they say SO without going into
Wholesale robbery under the pretence that the
Indian territory is q wall blocking commerce
Then the Cherokees would meet them half
way on any fair propositions.
On the other hand many Of the intelligent
Indians express no apprehension, relying, as
they say they do, on the United States to recog-
nize their patent to lands and to have some re-
gard for treaties.

long editorial on the Samoan question, saws:

''The engagement into which the cabinet of
