Shreveport, La, June 13.-The lat
est reports from the Foster plantation,
where John G. Foster was murdered
yesterday, says dozen or more ne
groes are still covering in the Kinne-
brew store, surrounded by a mob
which threatens every moment to
lynch the whole party. Prince Ed
ward, the negro who fired the fatal
shot, has not yet been apprehended
and it is the desire to get him that
has restrained the mob thus far. There
seems to be little doubt, however, that
summary vengeance will be meted out
to some, if not all of them.
Throughout the night and far into
the forenoon, the approaches to
Shreveport bore martial appearance.
Men armed with Winchesters, pistols
and shotguns, afoot and horseback,
could be seen as far as the eye could
reach. At 10:30 o'clock it is reported
that Edwards is surrounded in the
swamps near Belcher, by q posse
headed by Jacob Foster, brother of
the murdered man.

McMillin, of Tennessee, is a brother
in-law of the dead man. There is much
excitement in this vicinity and threats
of lynching Edwards if apprehended
