New Orleans, Sept. 21-via Hat
tiesburg, Miss. The tropical hurri-
cane which yesterday swept the
gulf coast of Louisiana and Missis-
sippi caused the death of at least
five persons and a property loss of
perhaps more than a million dollars,
and left New Orleans practically shut
out from communication to iutside
world by wires for twenty-four hours
The arrangement of railroad sched-
ules has not yet been righted and
it is porblematic when trains will
arrive in regular time.
Reports along the gulf coast are
meagre, no loss of life outside of
New Orleans has yet been reported,
but it is almost certain that the
death lis will be swelled
The actual property damage to
New Orleans will exceed S250,000.

FIVE o'clock this morning the explor-

midnight she nosed her way into

associated Press and resumed his
stense walk to and fro, up and down
the landward rail.
. A speck in the distance began to
i
assume dimensions and presently it
was recognizable as tug bearing
Mrs. Cook and her two daughters.
Quickly the tug came alongside and
while a heavy swell was running
around her tenders against the
plates Of her big sister, DR.. Cook
clambered nimbly down the ladder
and with no concern for cameras
trained on him made rush for his
wife. For moment he even missed

set foot aboard. Miss Ida Lehman,
daughter of an old Brooklyn friend
threw wreath Of roses about his
neck, greeted him as the hero and
the gentleman of Bushwick," Bush
wick is the name Of DR.. Cooks
home section in Brooklyn.
AS he stepped ashore it was notice
able that no representative Of the
nation, state or city was there greet
him. Brit S. Coler, president of the
Borough of Brooklyn had welcomed
him on the Grand Republic for that
Borough, but the City if New York
sent no oAcial representative. But
sincere and enthusiastic, to point
of tumultuousness, his welcome may
be best described as a neighborly
affair devoid of oBcial Significance.

1t will be recalled that the tissue
ballots were used in the heavy negro
counties for the purpose of having
the white men vote several tickets
at once by folding them all together
in way to- have them drop apart
in the boxes. The law provided on
closing the polls that if there were
more ballots found in the box than
there were names on the poll lists
the ballots should be returned TO
the box and one of the managers
should draw out the excess to be de-
stroyed. 1t is needless to say that
the Democratic white manager did
the drawing and the negroes used
to be very much surprised that he
always drew thick republican tick
ct to be burned.
The men in the upper part of the
State who had no negro majorities
to contend against aud some Of the
kneebreeches statesmen who are
editing our papers now will doubt
less find fault and criticise any al
lusion to these things in this day
and time, but those of us who pass
ed through the ordeal and who risk
ed our lives at Hamburg and Ellen
ton can afford to leave to the judg-
ment of the people Of the State
whether there was justification for
our acts or not. That We have good
government now is due entirely to
the fact that red shirt men OF 1876
did all and dared all that was neces-
sary to rescue South Carolina from
the rule of the alien. the traitor, and
the semi-barbarous negroes.
Here Senator Tilman told Of the
trial at Aiken, which We have al
ready published. He concluded his
speech with these words:
| am very much gratified to know
that YOU have withheld yourselves
from looking for something to eat at
this late hour long enough to listen
10 this recital of facts of what We in
the lower part Of the State had to
do TO save the lives of our wives
and children and to preserve our
very civilization itself. 1t is COM
D!m"nt both to YOU and 10 me that
appreciate to the utmost, and
close this recital by extending to
you my thanks, with the assurance
that as long as South Carolinians
are true to themselves and to each
other. the State will never again
have to pass through such an or
deal.
