the streets at midnight last night, with
rifles and other arms. They give 1t out

to the red shirts.
But few white citizens slept
soundiy last night. Lawless bands
OF armed negroes gathered in the northern
portion of the city. An outbreak was mo-
mentarily expected. A number of white
women in that section were nearly pros
trated with fear. Some were thrown into
Mysteries.
White men guarded the houses and the
Wilmington Light Infantry and naval re-
serves rendezvoused all night at their
armories.
Street cars were stoned by the negroes
last night, so white people were COM
PEELED TO desert them and walk. The po-
lice force was unable to command order.
