Shooting Scrape.
A very setioua shooting scrape
occurred at Pleasant Plain colored
Baptist church Sunday after
noon, in winch Sidney Alobrcsks
was very dangerously shot in the
right side in the region of the
stomach by John Davis. The
difficulty occurred about some
money that was claimed to be
due one of the parties to the
affair. It seems that Sidney and
his wife had started home when
Davis called to him and asked
him to stop that he wanted to
have a talk with him, Alsbrooks
replied that he did not have time
or something to that effect. About
this time Jack l'erry walked up
and told Davis to say what he
pleased that he would stick to
him, whereupon the shooting com
menced. Davis shot twice it is
said. Alsbrooks pistol failed?
the main spring breaking as he
attempted to shoot* All the concerned
are colored. Alsbrooks
wounds are very serious but Dr.
Sapps informed us Tuesday eve
ning that he was getting along
very well.
Nummary ot the Situation
The following was telegraphed
to tho Daily News from
Shanghai last evening :
"The situation is critical and
without parallel since the In
dian mutiny. At the Yang-tso
ports there is a grave feeling of
unrest Among tho natives. As
yet there has been no outbreak,
but placards have been posted
in Kin Kiang, Ugas Skin and
[ Wu Hu, calling on the poople
, to 'kill and burn.'
"A body of rioters, 5,000
strong, are at Kwei Hsienfi in
the prefecture of Canton, and
troops have gone to suppress
them.
"The Powers, unprepared,
are helpless to prevent disaster,
Nmt, barring trilling local fric\
--A
tion, they are working arnica- |
bly." B
The Pekin correspondent of
the Times in a "dispatch dated
Juno 14th, via Tien Tsin, June y
45, says : " A serious anti-foreign *
out-break took place last night, M
when some of the finest build- d
dings in the eastern part of the
city were burned, and hundreds *
of native Christians and s?r- *
k
vants employed by foreignors T
were massacred within two L
miles of the Imperial palace. p
"It was an axious night for *
all foreigners. n
If troops to reinforce the n
guards fai} to arrive to-day fur- ^
ther riots are expected. It is ?
believed that no European has q
been injured.
"Telegraphic communication
with the north," says the Shang- h
hai correspondent of the Times I
under Saturdays's date, "ceasod
early this morning." The last n
messago from Tien Tsin report- h
ed that fighting had begun, but w
gave no details. j*
UNITED STATES SEND tROOPS. N
Manilla, June 18?10 A.M.? ^
The 9tli regiment has now been j
ordered to Manilla, whence it w
will proceed to China. ^
Washington, June 17.?The =

well-nigh exhausted, and if
something does not come from m
the seat of trouble very quickly
troops will be dispatched to di
China as quickly as transports U
and available troops can be got- f?

Adj't. Gen'l. Corbin late to- F

deny the Manilla advices, that *
the 9th infantry would go to tl

From the Boston Morata.
Philadelphia, June 14.?Not
since the days of 1888, when
John enerman charged Gen A1 CI
ger with buying up his colored w
delegates, has the negro question
cut such a figure at a Kepubli 9|
can convention as it threatens to ^
this year. In the national com i,(
mittee a resolution was intro- G
duced by Henry C. Payne of ^
Wisconsin, calling on the Presi a
to intigate the political activity *
of Federal office-holders in the A
South in disobedience of his in E
struction, and it is likely to be j1
passed. (:<
Two members of the citizens1
committee on entertainment,
Major A. J. Ennis and James F. McLaughlin,
today resigned from
a sub committee because they
had been assigned to look after
the comfort of colored Southern
delegates. They are wealthey
manufacturers.
A resolution cutting down the
representation of the Southern
States, by fixing the basis of one
delegate for each 10,000 Republican
votes, is likely to be passed.
In addition all the large hotels
absolutely refuse to house or feed
colored delegates or sell them
drinks.
The national committee for two
days has been hearing contests J
for seats in the convention in the
south. Almost all the districts
in Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana,
Texas and other Southern States, (
are contested. Almost all the t
delegates are colored, as are the >
contestants. One side is formed almost
exclusively of Federal *
officeholders, and the other of the [
colored men who seek to become
officeholders. s
The officeholders were McKin- .
ley delegates at St. Louis in 1896, {
and the national committee has t
learned that those colored men r
go to convention only for the sake s
of getting fat offices. They have
no party organization. Many of
them, according to sworn testi
mony, are notorious characters,
and all of them who held Federal ,
offices have violated the pres-1 c
