HUNTING DOWN A NEGRO.
FIERCE MoBs OF FURIOUS MEN CON-
TRoL JEFFERSON PARISH.

Well-tO-do Colored Farmer, Suspected Of
Being Julien Who killed a Judge, Shot
Because He Did Not Halt Quickly.
Enough.
NEW ORLEANS, Sept 21.-Roselius
Julien, the murderer of Judge Estopinal in
jefferson parish, has not yet been caught
Mobs are searching high and low for
him. Last night well.to.do colored
man named Tennyson, who owns his own
farm and is a respected citizen, was mis-
taken for Julien and shot seriously but
not fatally.
Another negro, who is relative Of
Julien, was shot in the arm, because he
did not halt quick enough. Julien is
still in the swamp, which extends along
IHthe entire rear of the parish. He has
been seen several times, but always car.
rying his rifle.
Until he is captured and lynched JEFF
ferson will be under the regulators. The
sheriff shows no disposition to interfere,
and no official complaint has been made
to the governor.
jefferson parish has been practically
declared under martial law by its resi-
dents. The state senators and repre-.
sentatives are the leaders Of the regu-
lators, together with all other white
officials
Many of the white women and children
/ from jefferson have come to the city foI
refuge. Bloodhounds from the peniten
tiary were let loose this morning in the
swamps, where it is thought the mur-
derer is hiding. A correspondent saw
the preparations made for his execution
when caught. which will take place on
the exact spot where Judge Estopinal fell
and died
An iron stake has been driven into thl
ground to which he win be tied Fat
pine and resinous materials surround
this. Long irons, like branding irons
are in readiness, and when red hot, th'
man will be tortured with them, while
the fire underneath him burns.
A rude gallows tree above the pyre has
been built, from which the murderer
will be suspended over the fire by the
arms.
The number of regulators on duty Is
decreasing, as many Of the men ar'
physically unable TO keep on guare
longer, some of them having been undel
arms for several days No serious feei
has at any time existed of a negro up
rising.
Governor Fosters attention was called
in Baton Rouge to day, to the situation
in Jefferson. and he said:
1.-The only information / have of the
Jefferson matter is what has come t
me through the columns Of the news
papers.
Il presume that the local authoritie
will fully uphold and vindicate the Law
and will bring to justice any and al
persons violating the law, and l certainl.
look for and expect them 10 do so.

a WOMAN HORRIBLY BURNED.

Hester Brown Upsets a Coal oil Lamp
While In Drunken stupor and is Now
One Complete Sore at the Homeopathic
Hospital.
This morning between two and three
o'clock the residents Of Tatnall street,
above Eighth street, were aroused by the
cries Of a woman.
On entering the street they were
horrifed TO see Hester Brown. an elderly
colered woman, who resides at s03 Tatnall
street, enveloped In flames
A few minutes before Hester upset a
coil oil lamp over herself and her cloth
ing became ignited She then rushed
out into the street
Special Officer Emmons arrived i'm
mediately on the scene and eXtinguished
the flames In doing so there was not a
shred Of clothing left on her person, as
all that was not burned fell of her =,
DR.. William f. Sherwood was immedi.
ately called aud he had the injured
woman removed to the Homeopathic
Hospital when her wounds were dressed.
Her body Is one wound from her neck
down to her feet. The skin on her
right hand fell of and the sinews all be.
came contracted so that. DR. Sherwood
says, she will lose the use Of it entirely.
By some It is said that the woman
was in drunken stupor but this can.
not be thoroughly verified.
A strange part Of the affair is that
only part Of the oil out of the lamp was
spilled and nothing but the chimney
broken.
She lies In a precarious condition at
the hospital and her relatives are not
allowed to see her.

Why DOESN'T PULITZER LIKE THIS?


Minister to Italy as Saying Rude Things.
Scores the President for Making the APP
pointment.
NEW YORK, Sept 21.-The World,
generally recognized as the administra-
ton organ, to day contains a scathing
attack on j. J. Van Allen, of Newport, R.
l., the new minister to Italy.
1t dubs him an anglo-maniac who
stated to his friends that America is
no fit place for ladies and gentlemen to
live in. Toe w orld says Van Allen lives
in England three fourths of his time
and despisss America and Americans.
The secret of his appointment, it
charges, lays in his contribution Of
$50, to the campaign fund last fall
It hints that a determined effcrt will be
made in the Senate to defeat the appoint
ment. The President, too, is severely
scored for making the appointment.
The Worlds attack is said to have in
spiration in the fact that Editor Joseph
Pulitzer was an applicant for the Italian
mission
