Trouble between black and whites in
Lonoke county is apprehended.
In the to an of Lonoke, several ne
groes have been killed by whites and
others have been driven away. Notices
bearing date of January % have been
tackled on the doors Of nearly every
negro cabin in town and on many
cabins in the surrounding country, OF
dering every negro In Lonoke county
to leave Lonoke in thirty days and
never come back, threatening to kill
those who remain.
The notices are not signed, but are
adorned with q skull and cross bones.
One prominent colored man in an
open letter to his race advised the col
ored men OF Lonoke TO supply them
selves with arms and be prepared to
protect Themselves.
"When the negroes of Lonoke county
kill about twenty Ave of these lawless
men," said he, the outrages against
the negro race will stop, and not until
then"

Inquiries are made here from San Juan as

been sent to Captain-General Macias that
the fleet Is far away from the troubled CAPT.

his loss in soldiers was trifiing; that a
few civilians were killed and only two
guns dismounted.

The band played in the plaza the night

the people gradually recovered from their
fright and the bad effects Of the bonn

American fleet cheered the volunteers. Be-
fore the battle large portion of the citizen

opportunity to revolt. They now believe
that the Americans were defeated.
