Representative Cochran Attacks
Course of the State DEPARTMENT.


Mr.. Cochran tMo) made a speech in the
House yesterday afternoon. denouncing the
course of the administration relative to the
British war against the South African re-
publics
I'VE have ignored the rights Of those re-
publics" said he, "and we have trampled
upon the law Of nations in doing it. We
have an Anglomaniac in the State Depart
ment, who could see nothing in the cause
Of the Beers and everything sacred in the
unlawful pretensions of Great Britain.
Democratic applause.) In deed and in
truth, at the very outbreak of this war,
every question of internat tiOnal law in
volved was decided adversely TO the Beers
by the Secretary Of State. Every conten-
tion for which they are fighting was cast
aside. and every unlawful assumption of
power and authority asserted by Great
Britain was confirmed. And now it has
come to pass when the walls of the suffer-
ing wives and children Of the heroic Beers
are borne TO our ears by every gale, pro-
voklng responsive chord in the hearts of
sympathetic people throughout the world,
and they are willing to relieve the suffer
lnSS or these unfOrtunateS, that our Secre-
tary of State discovers some rule of inter-
national law that shuts the mouth of mercy
and palsieS the hand of charity. Demo
cratic applause) Shame upon this farce!
Shame upon this hippodrome by which the
American republic is yoked in the compan-
lonSh1p or this infamous power and made
10 seem 10 be conservatOr of the brutal
mana or this conquering army! Shame
upon the cowardice of the American people
In permitting 1t, and every day 1 say, How
long. oh. Lord, how long," Democratic
applause.)

MORE RIoT1Nd AT NORFOLK.
Cars Attacked by Mob and Several
Passengers Injured.

A dispatch from Norfolk, Va. last night
says: Strike sympathiZers threw bricks
and then fired pistol shot into street
car at the line Of the city limits at 10
o'clock tonight. and Private Bailey of Com
pany NJ, Emporia, Va, was wounded in
the right thumb
The same shot caused large piece of
glass to strike Sergt. Carr, Company !.
Franklin. Va, and cut his face severely,
causing the services of a physician to be
called in. At the same time the shot was
fired several bricks were thrown into the
car and Private Burgess, Company I. was
struck on the right knee and painfully In
1ured The car was STOPPED, and the SOL
diers fired several shots after persons who
were seen running away.

Rrambleton.
The disturbances were confined to the
suburbs principally andtthe cars on these
divisions were Withdrawn early in the
evening as a precaution. The experiment
of taking the guards off of the cars at
night has been unsuegfssful. and many
cars have been attacked while passing
through the suburban districts. where the
people are very hostile to the railway
company.
The four compantsssfof troops stationed
at the car barns out in the country were
removed to the armory in this city this
morning at the request of Sheriff Crom-
well of Norfolk county. but the sudden
change In the situation tonight made the
presence of the soldiers in Huntersville a
necessity. and they were again sent out to
protect the property of the railway COM
pany. after they had their supper in the
armory The fear of a repetition of last
Saturday nights rioting has caused the of
ficials in charge of the military and police
arrangements to decide to keep the troops
here until Sunday. and as long as neces-
sary after that day
A car on the Lambert's Point division ran
on section OF track that was creased to-
night. and when it came to standstill on
