NEGRO SCHOOL BURNED.

Mob In New Orleans Vent Their Fury
Against Blacks by Using Torch,
The splendid Thomy Lafon school,
on Sixth and Franklin streets, New
Orleans, was burned to the ground at
midnight Friday, having been set FIRE
to by the mob in the fury against the
negroes. The school was the finest
negro school in New Orleans, and was
erected with money left by the negro
philanthropist, Thomy Lafon, who be-
queathed fortune Of 5000, 900, divided
equally between charities for the whites
and negroes. The school was erected
by the city three years ago out of the
funds left by Lafon, and bust of the
negro was placed in the Louisiana
statehouse at Baton Rouge. The school
accommodated 800 colored children.
At an early hour Saturday morning
mob set fire to thirty tenement
houses occupied by negroes at Tchoup-
itoulas and Amelia streets. The flames
were extinguished before much damage
was done.

Chinese Allege That Surviving Diplomats
Are Being Escorted to Tien Tsin.
Friday mornings reports received
in London from Shanghai reiterate
the allegation that the surviving mem
bers of the diplomatic corps have al
ready left Pekin on their way to Tien
Tsin, and added that the foreigners
are being escorted by troops of Jung
Lu, COMMUNICATIVE of the Chi
nese forces.
This move is stated to have been
taken in the hope of abating the wrath
of the powers and delaying the ad-
vance of the allies toward Pekin.
A dispatch received from the same
sources state that half the foreigners
in Pekin have been killed or wounded
or have died from the privations they
have undergone.

FEARFUL CARNAGE WROUGHT.
Dead Bodies Strewn In Heaps
Over Battlefield at Panama.
Peace Treaty Signed.

fehCe treaty Jikneu.
A dispatch to The New York Herald
from Panama says:
A treaty of peace between the gov
eminent aud the reyolutionists has
been signed.
This action followed directly after
the most desperate battle Of the entire
revolution, in which the losses on each
side were very heavy. Owing, it is
believed, to some misunderstanding as
to the armistice brought about by the
American, English aud French con-
suls, the insurgents suddenly renewed
their attacks on the suburbs Of Pana-
ma. The fighting lasted eleven hours
with the exception of only few min
utes interval, and was very heavy
from start to finish.
The rebel troops made charge after
charge upon the trenches Of the gov.
eminent forces, pushing forward with
remarkable bravery and with a reck-
lessness approaching closely to mad
mess.
Every assault was repulsed with q
terrible loss of life, but the rebels
were undaunted, and with extraordi-
nary courage and renewed vigor re-
peated the attacks again and again.
These desperate assaults were kept up
all night long, and were met with
equally brave resistance by the regu-
lars.
1t was o'clock Thursday morning
when the revolutionists were finally
compelled to give up the attacks and
forced to retreat to the positions they
held when the armistice was declared.
The tide of battle was turned against
them by the arrival of an express train
from Colon with 800 fresh troops to
reinforce the government These
gave the regulars the advantage and
the rebels retired after eleven hours of
such fierce fighting as the isthmus
never saw before.
The appearance of the battle-ground
after the cessation of hostilities can
better be imagined than described.
The dead and dying were lying all
along the Caledonia road, beyond the
railroad bridge, for half a mile, some
times scattered a few feet apart and
more often in heaps, packed closely
together.
How many were killed during the
night is not yet known, but the num-
Der will reach into the hundreds. The
exact loss may never be known for
many of the wounded men crawled
into out of the way thicksts and those
died in the bushes may not oil be
found, being recorded simply as
missing"

The British Islands are naturally the
largest consumers Of our corn, taking
in nine months over G5,OOO,OOO bush
els. Germany comes next with nearly
36,OOO,OOO bushels. France took but
100000 bushels, about one-half the
demand of British North America. All
the rest of Europe took 44,S7S,01S
bushels. South Africa was the only
country outside of Europe, except
British North America, taking as
much as 100000 bushels. The pres
ent market for our corn is Europe, and
it is a market that will grow steadily
as Europe learns the value of That

HE IS FINALLY RIDDLED.
Discovered In Hiding and Build
ing Set OF Fire--In the Mean
time Fearful Execution Was
Wrought by Winchester.

A New Orleans special says; With
the advent of the citizens police force
Thursday night the threatened race
war came to an end, the turbulent ele-
ment yielded and peace and order were
restored. Friday morning the better
class of the negroes resumed their
avocations free from molestation, and
the restoration of order promised to
be permanent. The early hours of
the afternoon, however, wrought wo-
full change in the situation. The des-
perate negro, Robert Charles, whose
crimes caused the terrible events of
the past two days, was located in ane.
gro's dwelling on Saratoga street and
in effecting his capture the lives of
four more white men-two police Off
GERS and two citizens-were sacrificed.
Charles resistance cost him his life
and with him was killed a negro COM
panion who had aided him in his war
on the whites and his defiance of the
authorities. The fresh violence re-
vived the turbulence of the unruly ele-
ment aud added strength to their
forces. The citizens police force has
been increased to over 1000. All
companies of the state militia are un-
der arms and are guarding the prison
and other important points. The gen.
eral belief is that the force in hand
will be ample to suppress the lawless

BATTLE LASTED SEVERAL HOURS.

BATTLE LASTED SEVERAL HOURS.
It was after a most desperate battle,
lasting for several hours, and in which
Charles succeeded in killing Sergeant
Gabriel, Porteous, Andy Van Kurem,
keeper of the police Jail, and Alfred ].
Bloomfield, a young boy; fatally
wounding Corporal John F. Lally,
John Banville, ex-Policeman Frank II.
Evans, A. S. LeClerc, one of the lead
ing confectioners of the city, and more
or less seriously wounding several
citizens, that the desperate who killed
Captain Day and Patrolman Lamb
and badly wounded Officer Mora, was
smoked out of his hiding place in the
heart of the residence section of the
city and literally shot to pieces.
The tragedy was one of the most
remarkable in the history of the city,
and 10000 people, soldiers, police
men and citizens were gathered
around the square in which Charles
was finally put to death. Tremendous
excitement reigned in New Orleans as
the battle went on between the police
and citizens and the negro with his
winchester. After the tragedy was
over and Charles was dragged from
the mud and slush in which he had
fallen, with the mob bowling for the
burning of his body, statements were
made that the man killed was not
really the desperate who had killed
Day and Lamb, but papers found on
his person and the fact that he fought
so desperately for his life and shot so
accurately seem to leave little doubt
that the right man was put to death.
Sergeant Gabe Porteous, one of the
best known officers on the force, and
Sergeant John F. Lally, who has a
fine record for bravery, were informed
during the day by negro that Charles
was in hiding in house on Clio, near
Saratoga street. Determining to take
him alive if possible, the officers sum
moned a number Of patrolmen to their
assistance and went to the house
where Charles was supposed to be in
concealment. The negro informant OF
the policemen accompanied the officers.
They entered the side alley of the
house and were surprised in practi-
cally the same way as were Day and
Lamb. Before the officers were aware
of their danger, Charles, who was
hidden behind screen on the second
floor of the building, raised his win
chester and began furious but accu
rate fire.
Laly fell with a bullet in the right
side of the abdomen. Porteous wai
shot through the head and dropped
/ dead across Lally. The other officers
and the negro fled the scene. The re
ports of Charles winchester aud thu
