NEGROES AROUSED.
Refusal to Black Negroes Shoes Leads
to Legal Proceedings.
(ByS Associated Prcss.)

ROCHESTER, N. Y. May os.-The
colored population of this city is to-
light generally aroused over a case
growing out of a refusal of bootbIact
to shine the shoes of colored man.
Under chapter 1912, laws of 1895. George
w. Burks, a colored man. few weeks
ago. sued Paul Bosso. proprietor of
non-licensed shoe polishing stand III the
overs building, for refusing to polish
his shoes, and secured verdict of
TS113. 40.
The defendant appealed and the case
was reversed on the ground that shoe
polishing stand: maintained on private
property. is not a place of public ac-
commodation.
This evening the local branch of the
National Afro-American Council held al
indignation meeting and it was decided
: that the case be appealed. and that all
colored men be asked to subscribe to a
fund for this purpose. Several outside
branches of the National Afro-Ameri-
can Council, including one at Washing
ton. D. c.. and several in New Jer-
sey. have already expressed their will
ingness to support any effort to carry
the case to the highest courts of the
country

NOT AT ALL HOSTILE.
Nothing in Reported Friction Between

Nothing in Reported Friction Between
Teachers and Art League.
Inquiry last might brought out the fact
that there is nothing in the reported hos
tility4 of the teachers of Marshall School
to the scheme Of the Pubic School Art
League to spend $1,000 in identifying
that building with pictures and casts of
works of art.
Principal Albert H.. HILL when seen
last night, stated that there was no
foundation for the report, and that his
teachers We're heartily in sympathy and
accord with the scheme. Ali fourteen
of them, he said are active members of
the Education Association and Art
Leagues against which they are reported
to have taken up arms. One of them,
Miss Louie G. Kelley, is a member Of
the Executive Committee of the Art
League. which has in hand the matter
of the decoration of the building.
Mr.. Hill stated that he personally, and
SO far, as he knew all of his teachers,
were greatly pleased with the scheme T.
beautify their school. He could not AZ !!
derstand how such a report had been
started.
The Art League will ask permission Of
the School Board at its meeting tonight
to expend the money on the building
and the request will certainly be granted:
s5 Several principals of other schools. af-
ter seeing the published report of the
hostility of the Marshall School teachers,
stated yesterday evening that they would
be greatly pleased should the Art League
select their schools. They felt sure their:
tea cheers would cordially cooperate in
every way The offer Of the Art League
will not so begging.

swer to questions propounded him by
the editor of one of the city papers, a.
follows:
/ favor submitting the new Consti-
tuition only to the voters qualified under
it There is an abundant precedent for
such course. both In Virginia and else
where. If the Constitution were submit
ted to 10000 negroes. many of whom
are to be disfr,anchised under 1t, its rat
ification could be accomplished only by
fraud.
1t would be nothing short of folly. after
putting the State to the great expense
of framing a new Constitution, 10 sub
NIT it to an electorate which would GER
tainly vote it down.
WARM FIGHT TODAY.
The final roundup on the question of
proclamation or submission to-day prom
ises to be quite spirited, and it will be
full of interest, not only to the conven-
ton members, but to all the people of
the State.
BY agreement between the leaders on

1t was stated last night that there was
an organized effort on foot among the
submissiorists to reverse the order In
which the vote is to be taken. with the
view to putting the proclamation PROPOSE
ton first. but it is hardly thought this
can be done, as one motion to that effect
has already been overwhelmingly reject
ed. Both sides are hard at work. but
most of the confidence seems to reside in
the breasts of the proclamers.
The following forecast was given out
by prominent proclamation advocate
last night: Tor proclamation, 49,: for.
submission to present electorate. 81: for
