Outcome Of the LynchInG of Negroes
in Indiana.

NEW ALBANY. Jan. ia race war Of
very. serious proportions is threatened in
Warrick County, the county in which re-
cent trouble resulted in the hanging of
three negroes for the murder of a white
barber. Advices from Newburgh. that
county, a noted river town. which has a
large colored population, is such as TO
cause much concern. This trouble is
caused by an attempt made by vigllantes
TO drive from Newburgh a negro whose
wife is alleged 20 be a white woman
The negro recently moved to that Vi
entity. As soon as the report that his
wife was white became general he was
ordered to leave This he refused 10 co,
and q mob of forty men went TO his house
to compel him to do so. Their request that
the negro come out of his house only re-
suited in a fusIIlade Of shots from him,
ana the shooting became general. Al
though about sixty shots were fired. no
one was hurt The mob finally retired
Yesterday the negroes in the district
congregated at the cabin heavily armed,
expecting an attack from the whites. which
they threatened to repulse In Newburg
there are 800 or 4G9 blacks. The sheriff
of the county has been notified of the i'm
pending trouble. but has as yet taken no
hand in the affair

NEW YORK. Jan 1.-THE Stock Mar
ket opened active and rather feverish to-
day. declines averaging about half point
being commonly shown in the, active rail-
way list.
ST Paul was an exception, opening mate
rally above last nights final figures. al
though that stock later on became reac-
tionary also. Louisville and Nashville and
Texas and Pacific We're comparatively firm.
Interest WAS fairly well distributed
throughout the railway list, but as has
been the case for some time the Industrial
and local traction shares were compare
lively neglected. Sugar Refining, howeV-
er, was moderately active and firm, while
FEDERAL Steel after opening higher, sold
of quite sharply.
Manhattan was the active feature of the
local traction issues and was dealt in ma
terially below yesterdays final figures
The London market for American
stocks was again shown at material de-
pressions and foreign houses continued
to sell heavily IN this market upon the
opening of business
The mornings news comprised nothing
having any elements of novelty bearing
upon the financial situation Little or no
attention was paid to the more unfavora-
bic situation in China. or at least that
matter seemed to receive very little dis
cussiOn.
Expectations were quite commonly held
that the bank statement tomorrow would
show further large additions to the
banks reserves but they did not seem
10 be particularly effective in shaping
sentiment. After the opening dealings,
there was a sharp and general recovery
in prices.
The evening times. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1895-1902, 1901-01-11

There was much irreguiarity in the
Stock Market this morning, a weak open
ing being followed by a sharp rally in
many stocks, ana later by another de-
cline The outlook was more favors bic
for further recession ia the Immediate
future than for recovery of the ground
lost yesterday. The insiders seems to be
giving no support TO the market and it
is highly probable that they have sold
some Of their stocks at least, if only with
the intention Of getting them back al
lower price The public too is running
hard and the bears are elated over their
success. The temporary conditions that
help to scare the public and to make
short selling easy is the alarm over the
European financial situation. II is Ger
tain that this would have no influence
whatever more than for day If the in
sidcrs were still bidding up prices. and
TINS Is another argument that these as
tute fnauCiers have left the market for
time This is the extent of the bad outlook.
Actual conditions continue superb and in
