IT WAS DISGRACEFUL.

San Francisco, Aug. 2S.-One of the most sensational incidents in the re- cent history of this city was the at tempted lynching of a negro, Dan
 Thomas, by TennesSe troops. near the Presidio, last Monday. From the best evidence obtainable. it appears tha' the troops were aggressors from the start. Two of them provoked a quar- rel with Thomas, and in the fight which resulted the negro, who is little more than boy, struck one of the sol
 diers over the eye, cutting a deer gash. Thomas fled to his humble home near the reservation, followed by { bowling mob of over a thousand sol
 diers, mainly from Tennessee and Kan
 sas regiments. The scenes which fol
 lowed were most disgraceful. In thu attack on the little cottage, the sol
 diers forgot they were men, and dis graced the uniform they wore Tn, aged mother of Thomas was kicked and bruised. The windows of tht house were broken. the fence was de molished, and doors were smashed. II fact. the place was literally wrecked And when at last Thomas was induced to come out. officers with drawn pis tols prevented the mob from killin! him. After it was all over and tn
 official inquiry was begun, the Tennes seeans began to see they had made serious blunder They were deprivet of many liberties, and double guar' was mounted about the camp Tn
 Afro-American league has taken III the matter. and in all probability tn
 Tennessee regiments pay will be hel, back to make good the loss sustaine, by Thomas during the attack on hi
 home. Some of the soldiers, it is ex pected, will be dishonorably discharg ed from the army. The parents o Thomas have filed a claim for $500 damages against the Tennessee troops

iers. I find the phrase get there,' for xample, difficult When I saw youI infantry going forward against the op- ,osing troops in the forts and intrench- nents, I said to the officer with me hat the infantry should not attempt ;uch a movement without artillery You're right he told me, but the boys will get there.
 At night. when we were all so hun ", l ventured to inquire if further movement were contemplated till your rmy was provisioned. Then the off CTS, who were gentlemanly, all laugh d and said the army would think bout rations when they got there. The second day we met many of youl wounded men coming back as we were .oing forward. When the colonel ask d them about the fighting so many imes 1 heard them say: We got there. \nd afterward also 1 heard those words very often. But it is so difficult or me to explain so my people will get there. '-Boston Transcript.
