AN UNUSUAL CALM.
It Follows Turbulent Events OF the Night
at Brooklyn.

1t Follows Turbulent ESen!s OF the Sli,nl
ut Brooklyn.
BROOKLYN, Jan. 23.-There was ~
unusual calm about Brooklyn after the
excitement Of the night. The point
where the military guards were stationed
We're devoid OF crowds, and save for Il
few petty assaults the early morning
was without incident.
1t is sad that during the day delegate;
from New York city, Newark and Jersey
City will come to Brooklyn TO confe'
with the strike leaders to consider tn,
advisability of ordering strike amon2
the motormen and conductors of the
trolley lines in those cities. The execu-
tive committee will advise the delegates
not to do so unless they have independ
cnt grievances, as they fear that a sym
pathetic str ke will deprive them of pub
lie confidence, which they now claim to
have. The executive committee also
deprecates any attempt Of other worker
to strike out of sympathy.
Another Conference.
Another con- e.enca bttHeen Brigadier
General McLeet, Mayor Schieren, the
executive committee of strikers and the
presidents of the railroad companies will
he held during the day in order that an
other effort may be made TO settle the
dispute without further trouble.
The strikers seem to have the best of
the situation, despite the strong military
and police guards.
The companies are still further ham.
pered by the refusal of their linemen to
repair cut Wires. This it practically a
strike Of the linemen.
1t Is a Bad Blow.
The superintendent Of the Gates av.
enue line said that the refusal Of tae
linemen to work will preclude all posi-.
bility of the company running cars for
the day. The fixing Of electric wires is
business which requires much care,
and an expert knowledge. This strike
is the greatest blow the companies have
yet received, as in case of wires being
cut, car traffic will come to a complete
standstin. Linemen cannot be secured
as casily as motorman and conductors.
Cars are running on the Fulton street,
Fifth avenue, Bergen street, Sumner
avenue, Putnam avenue and Flatbusll
hines. None of them have been mo.
Tested.
Two companies of militia have been
sent from the depot Of the Atlantic
avenue line ut Fifth avenue and
Twenty-fourth street, to the depot at
Ninth avenue and Twentieth street,
where it was proposed to start the Fif.
teenth street line.

HOMES AT THE SOUTH,

1t is very pleasant to see the continued
inquiry for homes at the South by the
people of the West. especially by the
Swedes and their descendants, who have
done so much to develop the great West
ern States. The Jackson (Miss) Clarion
says:
prosperous gentleman from Manches-
ter, Ia, was in the city yesterday on
prospecting tour.
He Is the avant courier of a large
number of Swedish farmers who de-
sire to make their homes in the Sunny
South and Is looking for large tract
of land that can be subdivided to suit
them.
There is an abundance of good land in
Kinds county suitable to the wants of
this colony. and the Mississippi Immi-
grafton Bureau has strong hopes of locat-
Ing this very desirable class of farmers
on lands upon which they have options
in the neighborhood of Cynthia.
These Sweedes do not want much land
individuality forty-acre tract is per-
haps as large a piece as any one man
will care to own. but the colony will need
several hundred acres.
They have learned from experience that
a few acres well titled give more sat
isfactory results than so many acres
carelessly cultivated and tended, and will
set our native farmers good example
in case they locate here. The probability
la that they will.

AN lMPUDENT NEGRO
SEXES Pistol and Holds Crowd at Bay Until
He Could Make His Escane.

Last night about O'Clock Will Smith,
a burly negro, entered the secondhand
furniture house of Mr.. c. c. Bates for
the purpose of making payment on his
account He offered Mr.. Bates $.75 on
his account but Mr.. Bates insisted ON
payment in full, which was $6.75.
When Mr.. Bates told him to pay the
balance he replied, it is said, with an
oath and a great show of impudence.
that he would pay the balance when he
got ready" The negro refused to quit
the store when orderd to do so. but in
stead began an attack ON Mr.. Bates
with a club. Mr., Bates seized revolt
yer, but before he could use 1t effectively
the powerful negro had grasped the
weapon and wrenched it away from him.
Quite crowd was attracted by the diff
fculty, but the negro held them at bay
with the pistol and escaped before an
officer arrived.

WHITE PRIMARY IN LOUISIANA.

The question of holding white prima-
ries in Louisiana is being agitated, as
well as in this State. The leading papers
of Louisiana advocate primaries in the
Democratic party. and believe in allow
ing every white man to take part who
will agree to support the nominee.
The Shreveport Progress takes the po-
sition that the Louisiana Democrats
cannot afford to refuse to allow any
white man who wilt support the nominee
thereof from taking part in our primary
elections. Caucasian rule is our chief
aim. and this is the only way to honestly
secure it."
The Monroe Bulletin puts the matter
thus strongly:
1t would not be a surrender to Repub-
licans and Populists if all who partici-
pated in the primary would accept the
leadership of the Democratic party
What harm would it do If they voted in
the primary? Who would be injured? 1t
would be gain and not a loss to Democ-
racy. 1t would be an example to other
States. 1t would elevate and exalt the
spirit Southern Democracy, for it
would regenerate the good old doctrine
that the people must rule.
