NEW ORLEANS NOW QUIET.
Identification of Charles Is Complete
and No More Trouble From
MOhN Is ENnected.

New Orleans. July 2s.-Mob violence

if not actually serene, is at least more
quiet than 1t has been for several days
and no fresh outbreaks were reported.
The burning of the Thomy Lafon school
last night was evidently the crowning
piece of mob violence.
Mayor Copdevielle believes that lawless-
ness such as that which has shocked the
community during the past few days can
only be suppressed with force He said
to-day that he has no intention of dis
banding the special police or d dscharging
the mi itia until the last vestige of mob
violence has disar pearcd. Both of these
branches of martial government will be
held in readiness for several days.
Among the communications received by
the Mayor to-day was an offer from the
leading citizens" of Tangipahoa, for a
sufficient number of able-bodied men to
'annihilate the negroes of New Orleans. -
At police headquarters to-day every
thing seemed to be quiet. Affidavits were
made against those parties who were ar
rested yesterday on the charge of har-
boring the negro. Robert Charles. The
Identification of the latter was made COM
plete and the negro will find resting
place in potter's field. The grand jury is
investigating the riots.
Mayor Capdevielle issued two proclama-
tions-one ordering oil barrooms closed at
O'Clock to-day and to remain closed un-
til O'Clock Monday morning. The other
proclamation requested all merchants TO
close their respective places of business
at p. m. and keep them closed until a.
m. Monday.
The bodies of the two negroes who were
murdered yesterday were buried quietly
from the morgue to-day. During the early
hours tomorrow morning the dishgured
remains Of the desperado. Charles, will be
taken from the morgue and Inferred in
Potter's field with as much secrecy as
possible.
Sergt. Porteous was buried this after
noon. as was also Andrew van Kuren.
The city is being patrolled tonight by
the militia and the civic police, though
there is no indication of any impending
disturbance.

WOMAN'S STRANGE SUICIDE.
Declared She Was the Fiancee of a.
Hospital Patient.

New York, July 2S.-A young woman
about 25 years of age, said to be Miss
Elizabeth Blair of $3.50 Caroline street
St. Louis, committed suicide in the Pres
byterian Hospital yesterday afternoon by
drinking carbolic acid.
The young woman entered the hospital
about noon and asked to see William H.
Dodd. assistant manager of the American
Express Company's office of Madison ave-
nue., who is malaria patient at the hos
pital. She asked if any other persons
had called on Mr. Dodd. The chief clerk
told her that his f1ancee had visited him.
That's funny" she said. Il am his
fancee, 100"
It. was earlier than the hour for visi
tors, but the clerk finally allowed her TO
visit Mr. Dodd. She remained in the ward
about an hour and then left the hospital.
She returned later and, throwing a letter
on the chief clerks desk, drank from a
bottle Of carbolic acid. She died in less
then an hour without regaining conscious
ness.
The letter was addressed "W H. Dodd,
Ward 7, Presbyterian Hospital" and
read:
"My dear Husband: I have taken poi
son. Have my body cremated. Get my
things from Morgan's and send them
home. Your loving wife, -"
Dodd said the woman was Miss Eliza
beth Blair. He would give no further ex-
planation

RATHBONE SENT TO JAIL.
Was Asked TO Give Bond for S25, 900
and the Dondsman He offered
Was Finally Rejected.

Havana, July 2s.-Estes @. Rathbone.
recently director general of posts In
Cuba, was arrested at IL o'clock to-day
on four charges. These allege the unlaw-
ful drawing of two orders for $500 each,
dener from the postal funds, and draw
ing per diem allowance when not entitled
TO do so. Mr.. Rathbone was held under
bonds OF $4,000.
Estes G. Rathbone remained in the
court room all day awaiting the decision
of the judge in the matter OF the accept
ance of Francisco GAMBIA. one of the
richest Spanish merchants of Havana, as
bondsman for $4,000. Rathbone was
obliged TO go TO the guardhouse tonight.
because the judge ruled that GAMBIA could
not go on the bond without the consent of
his business partner
Rathbone's lawyer brought Senior Gam
ba to the courtroom at noon, and after
two hours argument the judge said that
he was willing to accept GAMBIA as bonds
man If the military authorities were salts
fed. When Capt. Scott was appealed 10
he sent three aides to report on GAMBIA S
financial standing. All reported favora-
bly, and sent word to the Judge that the
military authorities were satisfied as to
the financial qualifications of the bonds
man and advised accepting, providing no
other impediment should be found.
After consulting the law firm that is rep
resenting the government in the case, the
judge ruled adversely and Rathbone was
taken 10 the guard house.
Four charges were filed. One of the
claims made was that Rathbone paid his
coachman, footman and gardener from the
postal funds. Another charge was that
of taking IS per day without authority.
Other charges allege that he drew war
rants for his own personal use, and that
no vouchers were furnished.
Mr.. Rathbone's lawyers say the bond
is unreasonable as the total amount of the
fraud alleged is not over 5000 They in
sst that he will be released, and found
innocent of all charges. 1t Is also claimed
that the two warrants which figure In the
case were not oashed by Rathbone, and
that they were part of the defalcaton
charged up to NeeIy The also assert that
the per diem allowance arrangement has
never been officially discontinued and that
nothing criminal can be attributed to
Rathbone on any of the charges.

PAPER ISSUED ON CHINA.

Correspondence as to the Sta

London, July 2S.-A parliamentary pa
per on China was issued this afternoon.
dealing with the period of the murder of
the missionary. Brooks, Jan. 4, 20 July
49, when the Chinese Minister at London
communicated to Lord Salisbury the i'm
perial edict.
The last written communication from
the British Minister at Pekin, Sir Claude
Macdonald, dated May q, declares that
the demeanor of the inha bitants of Pc
kin is quiet and civil towards foreigners,
although from the panic among native
Christians it may be assumed the latter
are being subjected to threats of vio-
lence."
Sir Claude Macdonald was convinced
that a few days of heavy rainfall to
terminate the drought which had helped
excite the unrest of the country districts
would do more to restore tranquility than
any measures the Chinese or foreign gov
ernments could take.
The last letter from Sir Claude MacDon-
aid dated May 2S, refers to the warning
to Prince Ching that the ministers would
summon guards unless the government
showed a greater disposition to protect
the legations.
Minister Macdonald admitted that he
was somewhat surprised at the calmness
with which Prince Ching received The
suggcst stion, which he said had already
been made to him. Minister Macdonald
adds:
Possibly the government has awakened
to the strength of the Boxer movement,
and would be disposed 10 welcome the ad-
ditonal security afforded by the presence
of foreign troops"
From China TO the Queen.
July II the Chinese legation forwarded
10 the Queen a telegram dispatched from
Pekin. July 3, by the Emperor, as fol-
lows:

course between foreign nations and China

The Duke of Marlborough, who gave
the bride away, arrived in summerlike at

duties he seemed very glad to slip away
into a seat near his young American wife

The arrival of Lady Randolph Churchill

signal for a general rush of people outside
the church, all eager to catch a glimpse of
the bride as she walked slowly up
