NV ORLEANS, LA, March 16.-The city
wore its usual aspect yesterday and there
vas no sicn of any unusual excitement.
Crowds Of ladies and gentlemen continued
a,islt the scene Of the lynching, although
few were admitted inside the prison.
stems viii be taken 20 repair the damage
caused. and where stood the door which
vs. battered in VIII be built solid wall.
The prison officials are somewhat in-
ctnscd over the censure Of thoir failure to
make 6 more formidable defence. They
say that they did not give up the KEYS. and
that when the crowd broke in all the OFF,
Gers were found at their posts. Had they
fred at the crowd il would have caused
the storwine aud perhaps destruction of
the prison and the sacrifice Of mauv inno-
cent lives within and without the Jail.
Some # the citizens who entered the
Sheria'- office had axes, and placing one
in the Deputy Sherif's hands commanded
him 20 go along with them and break open
tie doors He refused, saying he was
sheriff.
AUTHoBIrTEs TAKEN USAwABrs.
In attacking Mr.. Nillere on his failure 10
hold the prison. it should be known that
while the execution was going on he was
with Attorney General Rogers at Cover
ror Kicholls's Office. endeavoring to make
provision for o defence Of the prison
should an attack ne made unOn il. Before
the appointed time for the meeting at Clay
statue he was at the Mayors Office in search
of assistance.
Chiof-ofPolice Caster did not think that
the meeting was called for sny other pur-
pose than to voice denunciatory opinions
If the Jury that rendered the verdict
Many Of the crowd that gathered in mass
meeting did not think that action was 60
ing 10 bo 80 sure and 80 prompt. Every
deputy or employ6 that Sheriff Villere
could muster together was in the prison
md instructed to resist if any attack was
made. The deputies say that none but
those within the prison could form any
idea OF the crowd that was gathered with
out and the number of weapons that were
visible in that mighty throng. There was
that determined look upon their faces that
meant business. and the only surprise is
that they did not do har5her things.
MASS FOR THB Souls or TIE SLAIN.
Father OIeary, Of the Jesuits, Sunday
morning performed the last sacred rites of
Tee Church. over the body of the elder
Narchesi. who was shot Saturday. and said
mass for the repose Of the souls of the
slain. IL was an impressive spectacle. The
Gcilian survivors gathered together IN one
OF the most comfortable rooms al the prl-
son. and were given more liberties than
usual. They were sincerely thankful for
'heir escape from death. Young Alarchesl
was seen, and although nervous at the APP
proach of any one felt quite safe.
During the shooting Saturday Charles
Taterno was on the top floor Of the wo-
mans department. He was seen Yesterday
morning. He showed signs Of mental DIS
,uiet still, and the officers of the prison say
tnat ne has been that way OF and on since

MATRANGo's WISH.

the use Of so much money, each man
should have gone before the jury on his |
merits. Some of the men may have been
rultv. and public sentiment demanded |
that some be punished. As for himself he !
vgs PERFECTLY innocent Of any connection |
with the case. and desired attention 70 he |
called % the fact that the Court had or !
d,rpd hrs acqUttal as innocent.
