INDIGNANT NEGROES.
Meeting to Protest Against LynchinS
i'm the south.

An enthusiastic meeting was held at Shiloh
! Baptist Church last night for the purpose of
vOiCng the indignation of the negroes OF the
| District Of Columbia at the recent lynching OF
the colored postmaster at Lake City, s. C.
The meeting was large one, and was at.
tended by many Of the representative negroes Of
| the city, Of whom a large number hold public
office and represent many sections of the country.
Rev. A. J. Taylor. pastor of Shiloh Church,
presided and addresses made by Bishop
Walter. of the African Methodist Episcopal
| Church, and Miss Ida B. Wells of Chicago. Each
championed the cause of the race, and pointed
out the injustice shown their people in many
OF the Southern States.
Senator Mason, who has for a long time mani
tested a deep interest in the well-being of the
negro race, the program for an address.
He did not deliver it, however, as he was unable
to be present.
DR.. George W. Lee introduced Miss Wells with
few humorous remarks. He said that as far
as peace is concerned, he had not seen any peace
for the colored since the closing of the
late war, so, il the colored men went to war
against Spain, as they would all want TO do
when they returned. il they ever did it would
be TO again with the men who have per-
secuted them in the South. The negroes had to
fight foes within and without. He wanted to
plead Tor free CUBA, but also wanted to plead
for free Africa. for the life OF the human beings
of his own nation and of his own flesh and blood
In conclusion, he said whether President McKin-
ley was for peace or war, h1 was for war at all
times, from until the life Of the negro was
protected in the South.
Miss Wells. who has had considerable cxperi-
enee in States where lynching has been carried
on, said it a matter of regret that she was
forced TO speak in such a meeting, for il was
really insult to the American flag to have to
appeal TO the Government and the better thinking
people OF the nation for fairness and Justice TO
the negro race.
She drew comparison between the suffering
reconcentrados in Cuba and TIE suffering and per
secuted of her own race. All America. she said
has declared that should wipe out the in
suits Of the Spanish TO the American flag and the
oppression and injustice and wrong treatment
given the Cubans but few Americans urged action
for the protection of the Southern negro. She
urged that meetings be held everywhere to create
sentiment. If the colored race did not resent in
suits and injustice. it could not expect the
white people TO aid it,
She said she was certain the government il
doing all in its power TO bring the South Caro-
lima postmaster's lynchers to Justice but even II
that were done she did not think Jury could be
had in that State that would convict them.

THE DIPLOMATIC CORPS.
Representatives Of Foreign Govern
ments Watch Events

The diplomatic corps is fully advised Of
the Geographic exchange now going on
between the capitals Of Europe The ac-
tivity Of European powers was reflected
through their representatives. here. Sir
Julian Pauncefote drove to the French
embassy at noon and had a conference
with the French ambassador. NJ. Cam
bon, whose government has been most
instrumental in attempting to secure a
concert of powers This conference was
preceded by the reception OF long cable
advices from the foreign offices at Lon
don and Paris.
The two ambassadors said after the
conference that the present iuncture was
100 profoundly grave to permit the slight
est public discussion of their movements.
In other diplomatic quarters 1t was the
opinion that a general meeting of the
ambassadors and ministers representing
the powers would be held here. IL was
the general feeling in these quarters that
whatever action was taken would have 10
be taken quickly, and there was no fur
their time for pour parlers between the
European capitals. None of tie foreign,
representatives. separately or together,
made any overtures TO the State Depart
ment.
A distinction is made in this case from
that of the concert Of the powers when
they interviewed to stop the Turko-Gre-
clan war, and when Russia Germany
and France combined to compel Japau To
relinquish the Lao Tung peninsula as
part of her war indemnity from China
In both of those cases, the European
powers carried their action to the point
of positive demand. backed up with a
show of force.
1t is said among diplomatic officials
that this attitude was due to the char
acter of the combatants, Greece Turkey,
China and Japan, 1t is said not having
attained that status before the world
that the United States and Spain ocCu-
Ply. For that reason, it is pointed out
the action of the powers in the present
crisis would be purely of a friendly char
acter, carefully designed to avoid wound
ing the feelings of either party, and ex-
pressly based on their willingness to ac-
cept this medium of securing continued
peace.
The news from London saying Great
Britain had finally declined to enter the
concert of the powers places a new and
most important condition on this Euro.
pean movement, and one which may fin
ally defeat it.
The attitude of Great Britain-and thia
view has been made known to the State
pepartment-has been that war in Cuba
should cease in the interest of humanity
at large.
The French ambassador maintains his
usual reserve. but it is known that he
looks forward to definite action on the
part of the powers almost any moment.
The Austrian minister Mr.. Won Hengel-
muller, denies himself to all callers. and
here is the most rigid secrecy as to his
communications with the State Depart
nent.
