Chicago Maroh 28. Ono thousand
negroes assembled at Bothel A. M E.
churoh last night to "consider tho re-
cent southern outrages upon their
raco." The first sensation of tho
evening camo when after a short
address Pastor Geerga U. Gains asked
tho audionoo to join him in singing
"America." As one man the audience
roso and refused to sing that song un-
til this country is what it olaims to
be sweet land of liberty. Tho pastor
then substituted "John Brown."
Several addresses followed tho sing-
ing among the speakers being State
Representative Morris who urged the
colored pooplo to organize into leagues
and associations to resist by united
efforts the outragos by' tho whites.
It1. L. Barnett speaking of tho rooont

word of protest. Tho jailor in oharge
at tirao lynohing was severely scored
as was tho white press whioh admitted
that it was an unfortunate affair warn-
ed negroes that an attempt to retalli-

dosed by appealing to the negroes to
abstain from rashness but to bo cool
calm courage and carefully doliborato
over manner in whioh repetitions of
Memphis affair may bo avoided.
