New Orleans Did Not Witness Any Vio-
lence Yesterday.
NEW ORLEANS. March 14.-Everything is
quiet on the river front and work is being
resumed along the lines. Work is now
going on at the Harrison line wharf
under military protection.
Four years ago to-day several thousand
determined men, under the leadership
of prominent citizens, marched to tho
old PARISH prison and shot to death
IL Italians implicated in the assassination
of Chief of Police Hennessy. To-Day
New Orleans is again passing through a
siege of excitement, the militia having
been ordered TO the levee to protect the
negro laborers from mob violence.
At o'clock this morning 50 negro
screwmen, laborers and longshoremen re-
ported for work at the Harrison line
wharf. The levee swarmed with police
men. Notwithstanding the soldiers had
not put in an appearance the stevelores
agreed to begin work under police protec-
ton, but Captain Woods of the steamer
Engineer, attacked by armed mobs last
Tuesday, would not let the men work un-
til the troops arrived al 10 o'clock.
At IL o'clock the Third and Fifth bat
talions of 25 men, under command of
Major Violet and Major Boucherau,
marched to the head of Josephine street,
where the work of loading the West
India line of ships began at noon. There
was no demonstration. BY noon all the
military companies in the city were on
the march to the river front. Each man
carried rifle and around his
waist was belt containing 20 rounds of
of cartridges When the troops reached
the wharves they were placed along the
levee for a distance of half dozen
squares.
Notwithstanding the appearance of tho
militia on the levee, the negro draymen
were afraid to resume work. and, as no
cotton is being delivered from the presses
up town, the stevedores, though ready 20
load the British vessel Engineer, could
not do SO.

SPAIN MUST LOOK OUT
The AllilnCil AffliT Has a Very Serious
Lock.
GETTING AT THE FACTS
II Is Said a Sinister Warning Has
Been Sent Breathing a Threat
Of War q This Thing
Is Ever Repeated.

WASHINGTON. March 1.-The depart
ment of state is moving with deliberation
in making up its case against the Spanish
government based on the firing. by a
Spanish cruiser. at the American steam-
ship Alliauci 4, holding that in matters of
such moment it Is absolutely essential
that our government should be in possess
sion of the exact facts, as to avoid the
humiliation of retraction through making
a demand that coulI not ne sustained by
the evidence. 80 far no reply has been re-
ceived at the department IN response to
the request made upon Captain Crossman
of the Aiiiancia Tor fur her particulars of
the incident. In the meantime the Off
cials are industriously looking up prece-
dents for their guidance.
One of the precedents which has been
brought to the attention of the acting
secretary as having direct bearing on
the Allancia incident was fonnd IN the
proceedings of the Alabama claims COM
mission. Ia one of the decisions an
nounced by Judge Fitch, the court held
there was no authority for the stoppage
or detention of mail steamer which is
pursuing her regular route even if that
route lay at places within three miles of
that shore limit, and so within the marine
jurisdiction of the power seeking to stop
the ship. Probably based on the Ala
bama decision above referred to, rumor
was in circulation to-day that the state
department had sent a mister warning to
the Spanish government to the effact that
a declaration of war would follow a repe-
tition of the Alliancia affair.
