RACE RIOT IN NEW YORK CITY.

New YORK, August 16.-Such a
furious ebullition of race hatred as
found vent in the rioting that oc-
Cured here last night, the outgrowth
of the murder a few days ago of
Policeman Thorpe, by a negro
named Arthur Harris, has not been
equalled in New York in many years.
AS a result of the disturbance which
ragged from midnight until 8 o'clock
and burst out in a flame of passion
and violence at intervals until day
break there were about fifty persons
injured by pistol balls, razors or
knives, rocks or clubs. Of these,
one negro, Lloyd Lee, may not re
cover, and policeman Kennedy is also
seriously injured. Lee is alleged to
have made threats against the life
of Kennedy because he was the par
ticular friend and associate of
Thorpe, the murdered officer.
Thorpe was the third white man
murderously assaulted in the vicinity
by negroes, after race p%rejudices
had been engendered. In less than
an hour from the time the trouble
began last night the whole of the
westside from 26th street to Long
acres above And street, including
9Th and Ninth avenues, was in an
uproar. Forty or more arrests were
made, four being white men.

THE PROHIBITION CAMPAIGN.

The minor parties, the Prohibition
lists and Socialists, are both expect
ing this year to increase enormously
the vote they polled in 1895, The So
cialist campaign, because of the di-
vision in the Socialist ranks, is not
yet well under way, but the Prohi-
bition campaign is already not only
mapped out but begun. One novel
feature is this year to be introduced.
A campaign train has been chartered
which setting out from Chicago, is
first to traverse the States of the
Middle West, and then return to the
East. The train will make it posi-
BILE for the principal orators-in-
Guiding the Presidential candidate.
Mr.. WOoley-to address a large num-
Der of rUal audiences each day, and
in the evenings reach as many town
and city audiences as they could
have done withort the train. Many
towns and villages along the, pro-
posed route have already sent to the
National Committee Offering to pay
the amount required for the special
train meetings, and to defray all the
expenses which the c~hartering of the
train had entailed. The Prohibi-
tionists base their claim of a largely
increased vote chiefly upon the un-
popularity of the canteen. Comp
troller COler, of this city, last week
astonished the politicians of all par
ties by stating that on this issue the
Prohibitionists of New York State
would poll a hundred thousand votes
this fall. At the Prohibition head
quarters the claims made were more
moderate, but absolute confidence
was expressed that the party would
more than make good it's losses in
1896. In that year it's vote was lit
tie more than half as great as in 1892.
West of the Alleghanies, twas said,
about half the Prohibitionists voted
for Mr.. Bryan, while east of the
A1leghanies there was a similar loss
most of it going to swell the ma
jority of Mr.. Mckinley. This year,
it is claimed that nearly all of the
old voters will return and that many
new ones will come with them
