Negroes to Hunt Negroes.

New Orleans, March 13.-Alarmed
at the growing indignation against
the negro race throughout Missis-

year, large number OF the better
class Of negroes from all over Missis,

and organized a law and order
league, to be composed entirely OF
members Of their own race. The
avowed object OF this league is to
stamp out lawlessness by assisting
in running down law breaking men,
bers OF the race throughout the state,
and especially to work against the
repetition Of the outrages by negroes
against white women, which have be-
come of an alarming frequency In

class Of negroes are of the opinion
that when the lawless class end that
their own race is against them when
they violate the laws, they will re
irain from many acts they now com
