VOL. VIII THE DALLES, OREGON, THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1895 NO 62 EVERYTHING IS QUIET No Further Kioting in New Orleans. BDT FEW SHIPS BEINft LOADED Bo Bays the Gvernor--8treet-Car Em ployes May Strike. Which Will Tend to Complicate Matters. New Oeleanb, March 13. The day after the riot found everything quiet in New Orleans. There were no negroes on the levee. The police were on hand on the river front in large numbers to prevent a rep etition of yesterday's bloody affair. There was a heavy fog banging over the river all morning and the police were under the impression that the rioters would again take advantage of this fact to commit deeds of violence, but this be lief did not pan out, for the simple rea son that not a negro put in an appear ance on the levee. The ship agents have decided in view of the present unsettled state of affairs that it would be a bad policy to attempt to work colored laborers. They realize . that the white screwmen have been worked up to a pitch of fury and if an attempt was made to work today more blood would be spilled. The result was that all ships .being loaded by agents employing colored laborers are undis turbed today. From appearances all trouble on the levee is over, and unless something un 1 usual happens there will be no repetition of yesterday's riot. Governor Foster to day reiterated bis assertions of last even' ing that he would maintain peace at all It azards. He, however, advised the agents not to attempt to work colored laborers today, believing if the negroes kept off the scene for 24 hours the' fight ing spirit of the whites would die out. There is ' a rumor that street car em ployees will strike today at noon. For some time there has been trouble over the question of hours. It is said if the Strike be ordered it will greatly intensify the feeling among the labor element. President Shaw, of the Screwman AssO' ciatioo, attended the railway employes' meeting last night. He made a very in - cendiary speech, and advised the strike. Governor Foster has requested another meeting of all exchanges, various mill tary commanders and other interested parties today to discuss the situation Shiploads of Floor. San Francisco, March 13. The steamer City of Peking sails tomorrow for China and Japan, and all of her available space for freight has been taken. The principal item of her big cargo will be flour, and there has been scramble for room for this article. It has been learned that contracts are being made for' flour shipments on both the Pacific Mail and Occidental & Oriental steamers as far ahead as May 1st. The reason given for this rush for freight space on the part of flouring men is the demand for room made by Port land millers. Strange as it may seem to San FranciscianB, flour is being mann factured in Oregon and shipped to Hong Kong by way of San Francisco, and put on the Oriental market to compete with the products of California. Oregon people are shut out from shipping by the Canadian and North Pacific steamers for the reason that those lines are carry ing all the cargo they can handle. With Puget sound shutout from them, Oregon millers had only one recourse left and that was to ship by the Pacific Mail and Occidental & Oriental lines. What arrangement has been made with the Pacific Coast Steamship Com' pany to transport flour to San Francisco is a secret. A special rate is understood has been given to Oregon manufacturers by local China lines, which enables them Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report to compete with California mills. The latter naturally hare the preference, when it comes to shipping, for the reason that they are the direct supporters of the Pacific Mail and Occidental & Oriental lines, and also becauee they pay a high rate. To shut out Portland men to as great an extent as possible nearly all the flour space has been engaged on steamers to sail between this date and May. Italians Are Lynched. Denver, March 13. A special to the Times from Walsenburg, Colo., says: Last Sunday night Abner J. Hixson, the keeper of a temperance saloon at Bouse, was assaulted by Italians. While one named Antonio Gobotto held him, Lo renzo Danino struck him twice on the side and back of the head with a table leg. They then carried him thirty rods north, leaving him near the door. John Leibel found him in the morning just breathing. Nine arrest were made. As aresul of the coroner's inquest five prisoners were held for trial. Danino was brought over to the jail at Walsenburg about noon Tuesday, and four others with Deputies Earl Danford and Charles Harriman, and Driver Jo seph Wellsby, started after 6 in the evening. When on the bridge, less than a mile from Walsenburg, six men on horseback, masked or disguised, rode up and or dered the driver to stop, the deputies to hold up their hands, and the prisoners to get out. The horsemen began shoot ing, frightning the horses, which ran into a wire fence. The driver was killed by an accidental shot. One of the Ital ians was wounded in tne Dreast, ana brought to town, and the other three have not been found. About 3 o'clock this morning the jail here was broken open and Danino and the wounded man were shot in their cells and killed. ' The coroner's inquest over Wellsby is now in session. Governor Foster said this afternoon : Effective steps have been taken, and peace will be restored at any cost. I have issued no orders to the military ex cept that they be held in readiness in the armories. The United States gov ernment will under no existing circum stances be called upon for assistance, as I consider the state militia able to pro tect the lives and liberties of our citi zens." Afterward the governor was closeted with delegations from the various ex changes and commanding officers of the military. The following who partici pated in yesterday's riots were arrested today: Dave Kehoe, Morris By an and Salvador Morover, alias Torredo." State Department Asked to Interfere in Behalf of the Italians. Washington, March 13. Marquis Im periali, first secretary of the Italian le gation, called at the state department today and directed the attention of offi cials to the news from Walsenburg. Colo., of the assassination of four Ital ians. He asked that the good offices of the department be used immediately to prevent further killing of his country men. Information Requested From Governor Foster About the Riot. Washington, March 13 Acting Sec re tary of State Uhl sent a dispatch to Governor Foster, of Louisiana, yester day, informing him that the British am bassador had complained of the shooting of the purser of the British ship Engi neer during the rioting in New Orleans yesterday, and asked to be informed what steps had been taken to secure the safety of lives. To this Foster replied saying that everything was quiet, and that vigorous steps bad been taken to prevent the recurrence of trouble and afford full protection of life and prop erty. He further said the purser of the Engineer was shot while on the wharf, and he (the governor) is not satisfied that his indentity was known. It is not probable that the British government will ask the United States to com pen sate the wounded purser, but it will be paid him as a matter of international 17T There's nothing The new vegetable shortening.

The Attack 'On The Jail. Walsenbdbg, Col., March 13. Uncle Sam may have international complica tions on his hands as a result of mob violence here last night, in which five Italians, believed to have been unnatur alized, were killed. After the attack on the wagon party early last evening all was comparatively quiet until after mid night, when seven or eight men wearing masks knocked at the door of the jail, where Lorenzo Danino, charged by other Italians with having struck the blows that killed Hixon on Sunday, and the Italian wounded in the wagon attack, were confined. In answor to a question the men said O'Malley. the sheriff, wanted to enter. ' As soon as the door was opened the guard found guns in their faces. Part of the masked men then went to the cell where the two Ital ians were confined and fired eight or ten shots. Each prisoner received four or five bullets. One died instantly, but the other lived a short time in great agony. JNo trace has yet been found of the three Italians taken from the wagon, although they were killed beyond a doubt. The list of the dead and missing is : Joseph Wellsby, driver of the wagon : Lorenzo Danimo, Pete Jacobiny, An tonio Gobotto, Etansilo Nittano, Fran cisco Poccetto. The other four suspects had been released from custody before the mob arose. Some fears were enter' tained at Bouse last night that Italians, who there outnumber the Americans ana otner nationalities, might rise up and attack their neighbors in revenge, Nothing of the sort happened, nor is it now anticipated, but the feeling is so in tense mat Bnouia sucn an uprising oc cur the Italian would be exterminated.
