The republicans of the Ninth North Carolina district down Rich mond Pearson. They nominate J. M. Moody for congress. A mob of several hundred persons formed at 1 1 o'clock Wednesday night in front ot the home of Police man Robert J. Thorpe, 36th street and Ninth avenue, New York, to wreak vengeance upon the negroes of that neighborhood because one of their race had caused the police man's death. Thorpe was stabbed and bruised last Sunday night by several n groes when he was at tempting to arrest a colored woman. The man who inflicted most of the injury is said to be Arthur Harris, a negro who came here several wetks ago from Wa hington. In a few moments t.e m.b tonight swelled to 1,500 poop e or more, and as they became violent the negroes fled in terror itito any hiding place they could ti,.d. The police reserves from four stations, numbering 400 in all, were called out. The mob of white men which grew with great rap dity raged through the district and ne groes 'eardle-s of age or sex were indiscri innately attacked. Scores were injured. It took the combined effort ot the reserves with as many more policemen on regular patrol duty in -the fou-precincts t restore older. Clubs were used until the policemen were almost exhausted Revolvers were emptied into the air and sometimes fired at ihe up uer stories of the neero tenements from which the negroes defensively fired bricks, paving stones and oth er missiles. A few minutes before 1 1 o'clock an Irish woman, under the influence of drLik, came out ot the place She set up a howl and began to re cite the viitues of the dead police man. She said the negroes ought to be killed. Just then a young ne gro walked by. The white men made a rush for him and he was quickly surrounded He was beat en and kicked and was rescued with great difficulty. If there had been a carefully arranged plot and this had been the agreed signal the out break could not have been more spontaneous. Men and women poured by the hundreds from the neighboring tenements. Negroes were set upon where ever they were found and brutally beaten. Ths blacks at first offered resistance but they were so soon outnumbered that they fled without dday. For the next hour the streets were filled with a rioting surging mob. The shouting of the men, the shrieking of the women, the lamentations of the children, the shooting of revol vers, crashing of windows and all made a perfect pandemonium.
