land for helping the organization out in
the late election by appointing the one
man whom Cleveland ever denounced

Italians Insult the Flag.

New ORLEANS, March 25.-The re-
pert of the insult offered the American

the numerous letters received by the

Wanted to be Hanged.

COLUMBIA, S. c., March l9.-By an
act OF clcmency on the part of Govern
or Tillman the sentence OF death which
Fred Brown was under for murder has
been changed to life sentence OF hard
labor in the State penitentlary. This
communication is due to the efforts of
Browns attorneys, Messrs. Meetze y
Muller, AMI OF his good friend Maj. j.
II. Adams who have had in circulation
Tor the past ten days petition to be
presented to the Governor asking his
humane consideration, sc. The crime
for which Fred Brown was expected to
be hanged tomorrow was committed
IN the night of the 18th of July, 1889,
about four miles from Lexington vii
lage. Fred Brown suspected Lem
Jackson of being too intimate with his
wife and he undertook most e1fectu-
ally to stop the sensation by shooting
and killing Jackson. When the Sheriff
communicated to Fred this morning
the news of his communication, the prls-
oner replied that he was Indifferent
about the matter, that he had made up
his mind that he was to be hanged to-
morrow and was not glad that he was
to be disappointed in taking the journ-
ey to Heaven. The news Of his new
and probably long lease of life was told
to him before breakfast, and almost
any one would think that it would
have braced him up for hearty meal.

fused to eat. His expectation OF din

morrow doubtless destroyed all relish

men happened to be away, demanding
that hot coffee and dinner be furnished
him. He abused the women whenever
they refused to comply. r. D. Flaitz

placed Dougherty under arrest just as
he had kicked down the door OF Mr..

Last night a mob of over five hundred
men surrounded the jail where he was
locked up and demanded the prisoner.
The sheriff refused, but as the officer
was taking the prisoner through the
back alley he was seized by a mob, who
took him to a bridge, when rope was
placed around the tramp's neck. Some
members Of the mob begged that his Life

About thirty persons were provided
with cowhides, and each one piled the

He begged for life, and every stroke

shoes were filed. Finally he was cut
down, exhausted, but with strength

THE MASSACRE OF THE MAFIA.
Governor Nichols, of Louisiana, Replies
to Secretary Blaine.

WAsHISGToS, March 24.-Secretary
Blaine received letter from Governor
Nichols. Of Louisiana, this .norn NJ, in
regard TO the recent killing o. eleven
Italians in Jail at New Orleans, OF which
the following is a copy:
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, STATE
OF LOUISIANA, BATON ROUGE, March
t2l, 1S9l.-Hon James G Blaine, Secre-
tary of state. Washington, d. C.-Slr: :
at a late hour Oh the 18th instant I re-
:eived dispatch from you having refer
cnce to The torclb e breaking on the l4th
Of this month of the jail III this city and
the killing Of eleven persons confined
therein under indictments found IN the
criminal district Court FIR the Parish Of
New Orleans. You stated to me that
it had been represented t. The President,
by the minister Of Italy. accredited to
the Government Of the United States,
that among the killed on that occaeion
were three or four subjects OF the King
Of Italy.
The telegram disclosed an apprehen-
sion on the part of the minister. evident
ly shared in by the President, that the
disturb .nce was continuous and swell
ling disturbance which might involve
Italian subjects in New Orleans. I have
reasons TO believe that the hope ex-
pressed by the President that l would
cooperate with him in maintaining the
obligations of United States toward
italian subjects, who might be within
the perils Of the excitement, and that
further violence and bloodshed might be
prevented, was based upon that belief.
He further expressed the hope that all
offenders might be promptly brought to
justice.
On the 10th 1 telegraphed you that
there was nc excitement in the city at
that time and thatI saw no reason to
anticipate further trouble. Ialso stated
that the action taken was directed
against particular individuals and that
the race Or nationality Of the parties did
not enter as factor in the disturbance.
A week has passed since the date Of my
dispatch and the opinion then enter
tanned as to the termination Of the trouble
has pro red to haYe been well founded.
The men killed, as l have stated, were
confined in prison under indictments
found in the Criminal District Court for
the parish of New Orleans. The sheriff
has made his return Of the facts to the
Court, the Judge thereofhas charged the
grand jury now in session N regard to
the matter and the whole subject is, I
assume, now under investigation by that
body.
l am satisfied that most of the persons
killed were American citizens, but pro-
badly that two or three were Italians
subjects.
l have the honor to be, very respect
fully, Francis T. Nichols.
Secretary Blaine has sent copy Of
the letter to Baron Fava italian minis
ter.
ITALY WILL WAIT ON THE LOUISIANA
COURTS.
The department Of State will not take
further action IN the matter Of the New
Orieans tragedy until the Italian minis
ter makes some further communicated.

TWO STRICKEN CITIES.
Pittsburs and Allegheny Suffering From
an Epidemic of La Grippe.

PlTTSBURG, Pa, March 24.-From a
street joke grippe has become generally
a dangerous disease. The death rate
has increased to a great extent, and this
month will break the record by the
alarming increase of so per cent. Clos.
ing at noon, 123 deaths have occurred il
Pittsburg and lAlleghanyin twenty-four
days of this month. Thirty-eight deaths
have been reported within the last
twenty-four hours, and many, no
doubt, have not been reporte d. The
direct causes given on the certificates
are grip, influenza. pneumonia: typhoid
fever and diphtheria. From the last
named diseases, one death per day has
occurred within the past three weeks
at the Home OF the FriendleSS alone. In
the two cities there were tifty-one fun
erals last Sunday, and there was not
one-half enough hea-ses to go around.
Respectably covered wagons are used,
and carriages are daily at premium.
In one large clothing house twenty
three clerks are laid. off with influenza,
which is daily growing more severe, and
now numbers victims nearing the 5000
mark in the city and suburbs. Physi-
clans are overworled, and some have as
high as forty and sixty cases of grip
alone. 1t is estimated that over 1000
are suffering with grippe in the towns
along the Fort Wayne road. At Belle
vue and Western Bellevue over 200
cases are reported, some of which are Of
a very serious nature. At EmsWorth
and Haysville there are over 100 cases.
There are also many cases in Sewickly
and it is estimated that fully 500 peo-
are confined to their homes. Reports
from all other towns result in somewhat
similar though none are so afflicted as
this city.
Special from Canton, Ohio, says Miss
Kate Detweller, handsome young
lady Of 24 years, hung herself last night.
She had been suffering from a severe
attack OF grippe and while delirious
from fever suicided.

TO get the local population Of these
States 2,5S1 Chinese, 100 japanese and
S,2O7 Indians should be added to the
sums of the white and colored popula-
tion.
Several tables are given which show
the movement of the colored element
Of the population during the last nall
century. An inspection OF the tables
makes it evident, says the bulletin, that
there has been no extended \ NorthWard
movement of this element since the
time of the civil war Indeed, with
the exception Of the District of Colum-
bia, the border States appear to have
lost rather than gained, and during
the last decade there becomes percep-
tible Southwark movement OF the COL
ored element from the border States
into those bordering the gulf, particu-
larly into Mississippi and Arkansas
where they have increased proportion
ately to the whites. Let the States
under consideration be divided into
two groups, the first comprising Dela-
ware, Maryland, District of Columbia,
Virginia, West Virginia, North Caro-
lima, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri
and Kansas, and the second, South Car
DINA, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mis-
sissippi, Louisiana, Texas and Arkan-
sas. Now, the increase of whites in
the first OF these groups from 1850 to
1890, was at the rate Of q per cent,
while that of the colored element was
but 5.5 per cent. In the second OF
these groups the rate of increase of
whites was 31.S per cent, while that OF
the colored was 191 per cent. In the
first group the number of colored to
100000 whites diminished between
1880 and 1890 from 2S.70l to 23,OSS, or
1875 per cent, while in the second group
it diminished from 81, ,456 to 1851, or
only 96 per cent. There is, therefore,
perceptible tendency Southwark OF
the colored people, which. by no means
powerful, has resulted in drawing a
notable proportion OF that element
from the border States and in produc-
ing in two of the far Southern States
more rapid increase of the colored ele-
ment than of the white.
