8 COLOR AND TRADE. A Plan Proposed for Obliterating Race Prejudice, THE MEETING LAST NIGHT. Se ae nary Complaints of Discrimination—Agitation and To obliterate color preju 4s the object of an organization to form which ® meeting was held at the Metropolitan Bap’ Church on & strect last night. Tho mecting ‘was well attended, the large auditorium of the ebureh being well filled. The gathering in- eluded many well-koown colored men and women. On the platform were seated Rev. ‘Wm. H. Brooks, Rev. Mr. Cols, Fourth Auditor Lynch, B6v. Ger. W. Loe, Key. Robert Jobn- son, Mr. A. F. Hillyerand others. ‘The meeting ‘Was not @ mass meeting, but the exercises we conducted in accordance with « program ar- ranged by the committee in charge. After an earnest a tee by Rev. Walter H. Brooks, Mr. A. F. Hillyer read the call of the mecting and stated its objects. A circular, he said, subscribing to the purposes of the move- ment had been signed very generally through- ‘out the city. It was not the intention of the Promoters of the movement to throw the ques- ‘tion open to an indiscriminate debat®, as they did not believe this was the time for that. ‘Those who called the meeting had a remedy to propose, a remedy that had been carefully con- Sidered.’ The ers had each chosen a sepa- Fate topic. The cruel injustice they suffered revented them from equal opportunities in fe. The cause of this proscription was color prejudice. Whatever they might say or do lnust be done to obliterate color pre; ‘They must labor to make a good im- jon on the communit: They must be Careful not to originate prejudice, not to draw the coler line themselves. ‘They must stick elosest to th iends, white as well as col- ered. They must respect their own class and be ready stall times to help and encourage them. “Ibex must be manly and womanly and make such an exhibition of self-respect as to compel all men to applaud their efforts. Mr. Hilyer then introduced as president for the evening Mr. John H. Smyth, ex-minister to Liveris. Mr. Smyth ‘at once introduced the first speaker of the evening. Mr. John H. Brooks. who spoke on “Discrimination in the Administration of Justice in the Polico and =_ Departments of the District of Colum- in THE COLORED PEOPLE AND TRE POLICE. ‘Mr. Brooks said that since the amendment of the Constitution of the United States giving the colored peopie their citizenship they had had @severe struggle. The more enlightened they became the harder the struggle seemed to be. He was sorry, indeed, to believe that justice ‘was not blind, but saw with great clearness the complexion of the party brought before the courts. They ought first to sce that all their people became law-abiding. In their schools and Sunday schools they should teach all to always abide by the law. If « colored person isarrested bya policeman he is treated en- tarely different from a white person. They are elubbed by policemen without any justification whatever. ‘These are facts that have come to his knowledge. The distinctions ‘made by the police department are so glaring as to consti- ite a disgrace to the community. He would leave the community to say how -they are treated when they ai to the Police assembled that Court. They were evening for the purpose of calling public atten- tion to the outrageous administration of jus- tice in the District. He thought any one who would go into the Police Court and sit apy length of time would conclude that the treat ment of the colored man was outrageous. They @id not want to screen any offender against the law in any way. He did not beli at when le of this city lieved in five prejudice would union wae summation, and if they this organization he the ob; did no: ask them to employ these men becuse they are colored or refuse to employ snother decause he is white. When one was sick he endeavored to get considered the best. Yet be did a8 a whit felt that the colored doctor ough! reference. He would not prefer him because was colored.

It mattered not how skilled the colored doctor knew that on account of prejudi: enter the bed chambers of the white as he could the bed chambers of the a the white doctor could the bed chambers of the colored. If the colored people refused to give the colored doctor the preference and he was excluded from the homesof the white People what was the colored doctor going to jo? They should give him the preference for the sake of the race. He was anxious to seo the day come when there woald be no necessity for race organizations of any kind—for colored churches, for colored schools. “But do you know,” he asked, “when that day will come?” f judgment,” said some one in the andience. jome one,” continued Mr. Lynch. siys after judgment day. I will not attempt io give a ‘imeasure of time. That day will come when church congregations will be composed of white and colored alike and a colored carn can preside over such a cougregation. Separal schools will cease to exist when the colored and white shail attend the same schools and where there shall be no distinction in the employ- ment of teachers.” Mr. Lynch, continuing, said the present condition was something for which they were not responsible. They must educate the public up to the point of recog- nizing merit in a colored man when he pos- sesses it. He thonght they could make progress in this direction without instituting law suits, establishing boycotts or domg anything that wonld offend any one. He happened to meet a fow days ago.s colored man who said he was a regularly employed salesman in a clothing store in this city conducted by a white man. He told him that he would go there and buy his clothes there. He went and bought a suit of clothes, and he had on the suit then. It did him go0d to go there and call for this colored salesman. Su he said if every colored man in this city who wanted a suit of clothes went to this store and called for this man. The storekeeper would have to got two or three dozen such salesmen, and not only that, every other clothing store in the city would be on the lookout to get colored sales- men. That was what he meant by union. He did not care personally, for as it was now the sentiment among white business men was that no white man could afford with safety to his business to employ a colored man. He ‘felt like encouraging this firm for what it had done toward breaking down American prejudice. He believed there were white business men in this city who had not the slightest objection personally to employ- ing colored men. It was because of an appre- hension that instead of gaining trade and cus- tom they would lose it that y did not em- ploy them. When they asked such a business man to do something which, in his opinion. would destroy his business he will not do it. If that man can be made to understand that by refusing to discriminate he would not only lose, but gain by it, he will do it. They could aceomplish this by union, organization and ion. It they could guarantee to such in that he could gain the colored trade or }, he could take the chances. That wes not boycotting any but was rais- ing tue boycott that : against the colored That was not destroying any ness, but was building some one’s business. That was an ap- plication of what was called. reciprocit they were simply following in the footsteps of the government. He was a strong advo- cate of reciprocity. He wanted to say a f words to colored women. He looked with solicitude upon their young women. Did the question present itself to mothers who were Taising daughters what are these daughters to policeman had to accost him or apprehend him the policeman should make ‘bis’ business known by clubbing him. Yet that was the ‘way the policeman treated the colored men. THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT. Speaking of the health department, he asked bow many of the inspectors went into the alley: to see how the poor people who occupied the Gwellings there were housed—how the houses were ventilated. He said the great difference in the vital statistics among the colored and the whites was due to the fact that the colored opie were forced to live in these unkealthy tations, for whicha higher percentage of Fent was charged than for the Palades of the Fic! When the beautiful strects of which Wash- ington bragged to much were merely the out- side boundaries of squares which were filled with corruption it was a shame. It was a known fact that no respectable colored person could rent a house on certain streets on ac- count of the combinations aginst them of real estate agents and owners. I forced to colonize in the all ‘through the police and th should see to it that their surroundings were made healthy. He thought the enforced colo- nization of the colored people in the alley tended to endanger the morals of the youth. He believed they would fail in this Movement from the start if they did not start with a determination to Lave no offenses com- mitted by the colored people. He believed this organization was necessary for the reason that when they pretended to correct evils they must go upon facts He proposed that when they Bave an organization they should collect | ¢% the facts, and with them they could wield a moral influence that would make every one in ‘the community feel ashamed. ‘THE GENERAL PLAX PROPOSED. ‘Mr. Kelly Miller, the next spesker, spoke on “The Need of Organization anda Plan.” He said that since the abolition of slavery only two methods had been proposed for the solu- tion of the race problem—polities and educa- tion—but neither was broad enough. "In spite of political effort and the results of education tho proscription still existed. The now Was to use their mate nd in- justrial resources in order to secure thelr rights. Whatever they ate or whatever they drank, whatever they di. they should do with an eye single to break down the barrier. Neither speech nor silence would have much ‘weight with tae American people aa the argu- ment of silver and gold. Wisdom does not @ictate the policy of endurance. For a quarter of a century they had been iixtening to the ad- vice of those who would persuade them that ail ‘would be made right in time, but instead of an aayhoration of their condition they had gone from bad to worse and from worse to the in- sufferable. It was rot through tears or com- plaint, through resolutions ‘or protests or ‘Vituperation, but ona broad platform of co- that they would find the relief they sought. Whatever antipathy existed between races wus something they could Rot reach, for the Ethiopian could not change Ais akin. “It was a condition and nota theory that confronted them. It required no argu- ment to convince one that their condition was istactory. There were two courses of ac- to the same end. They could at- tack the problem individually or colored abi sation. hear lack of was their uals than any other race with similar antecedents. But the man could not rise much sbove the mas. They should bring the gen- Se 2s level of the Anglo-Saxon standa: @ situatiun called men cohsecrated to a course and devoted to principle. It was not by cutting loose from do? In what business are they to be engaged? All could not be school teachers or govern- ment clerks or wives of rich husbands. All could not be domestics in the families of rich people, and ought not to be. They knew if they took one of these daughters to a store and asked employme: identity with the col- .d race was suspected. the answer would be 0.” It was the duty of these mothers to en- courage the proposed organization. He be- lieved if one of these merchants could made to understand thet by put- ting one of these girls to work majority of colored mothers would trade with him he would do so. By such organization, by euch reciprocation, they would make the long- est step toward the object they had in view. He knew that it was said that colored women, or some of them, were imitators. He remem- bered when he was a boy on a farm when it be- came a fashion among white women to wear the hair ina puff over each ear. That wasa very difficult fashion for some of these colored women to follow. They had one woman who was determined to be in fashion, though her hair was short. He noticed on Sunday when she went tochurch she had those puffa He was so much concerned about it that he asked how she had done it, and found she had » bunch of black moss right over each ear. So she was de- termined to be in the fashion. Colored ladies in Washington would be in the fashion so far as dress went. They were bound to go to these stores. He advised them to go to stores that would treat them ni and that would give employment to deserving colored people. He did not ask that they give their trade exclusively to places run by colored people. addition to encouraging white business men to do the fair thing by colored boys ‘and girls ‘one of the best things they could do was to en- ttook busi- courage colored people who undet ness enterprises of their own when they found such men responsible and rel y would not only contribute to the success of the colored business men, but they would open channels of employment for those who were not fortunate enough to be able to embark in business for themselves. REY. GEO. W. LEE. Rev. George W. Lee, who next addressed the meeting, did not give the most hearty kind of approval to the plan suggested. It is time, he said, that they as a people demanded their | unioniste: rights, not in a compromising way, but boldl; He wanted his rights, not asa gift from the white people, but as something vouchssfed to him by the blood of 36,000 negroes who slept in the grave. As to the trade proposition, he wondered if they were prepared to make s de- mand They must be prepared to have their demands rejected. He thought if they hada few more stores of their own, if they demon- strated a disposition to do something them- selves,they would be in a better position. Still, if the effort would stop the great current of prejudice against his race he would like to see itearried out. It was time for them to do something.

London Bondholders Do Not Favor the Pro- posed Virginia Debt Settlement. Beveral interviews wore had yesterday in London with lending English holders of Vir- ginia bonds in regard to the latest plan for funding the state debt. All of them were bit- terly opposed to the propoved plan of settle- ment. Mr. Cooper, the secretary of the com- mittee of English holders, said that only an out- line of the proposition had been cabled. Until the full document, which was coming to Eng- land on the steamer Etruria, was received no meeting of English holders would be convened. In the meantime, every opinion that he had heard expressed concurred that the proposi- tion was untenable, Mr. Trotter, the principal member of the committes, said that he considered the plan utterly iniquitous. The holders, he declared, wonld decidedly profer to keep what legal grip they had on Virginis on tax-receivable coupons than to accept terms which wore greatly insu! ficient and which left them to rely on th honor of men who had already shown that th were lacking in the sense of honor. Virginia was able to pay ber debt, but the question had long ‘out of the hunds of the old hono able Virginians and had become a political one, controlled by carpet baggers and negroes, who ragged the honor of the state through the dirt with their coupon-killer measure. He was for , but not at the price offered in the plan. FPvould be better, he declared, for theholdere to fight and carry their claims from court to court. The proposal he made to the committee some time since was absolutely the lowest terms possible to accept. Mr. ‘Trotter said he knew that Sir John Lub- bock, Mr. Littledale and others, who were authorities, concurred in the belief that the holder ought not to agree to accopt loss. ‘A private holder declared that the proposals were farcical. He knew the details of the plan through private cable dispatches. When the meeting of holders was called it certainly would unanimously reject with scorn and con- tempt worse terms than they could have got ten years ago. Montioning thie remark to Mr. Trotter sub- sequently that gentleman said that whatever the holders might have got ten years ago in the way of terms, the conditions were the same then as now. ‘What reliance could be Placed in the honor of the men conferring mi “We would have no security whatever if we surrendered our tax-receivable coupons for the newly proposed issues.” Mr. in of A. Keyser & Co., foreign bankers of London, said that the impression made upon him by the new proposal was unfa- vorable, but that the bondholders expect the terms of the proposal to be submitted to them, as was arranged in the agreement of deposit. By this agreement it was ided that the holders not satisfied with the proposals would be given sixty days to withdraw their holdings and that a majority of any group would have the right to withdraw that group. If this was not done, Mr. Franklin gteat resistance might be expected. Mr. Newgass, » noted financier, who holds $2,000,000 of Virginia bonds, and Vivian, Grey & Co., who hold $1,000,000 of those securities, are also dissatisfied with the delays. Virginia bonds on the stock exchange closed yesterday at 41!¢. The 7imes in its financial article yesterday said: “The persons interested in Virginia debt bonds may bedivided into three classes: First, those desiring an early settlement of so that they may secure # profit from bonds, which they bought cheaply; second, those who are not content with the present scheme, because they purchased the bonds at a high Sgure; third, those who will lose by the scheme, but who’ want the matter settled in order to facilitate further railway enterprises, &c. The last mentioned class is a large one, but is composed of small holders. The second clase is largely in the majority, and if content to wait patiently and remain firm it will cer- tainly get better terms, because the business community in Virginia will insist upon a set- dement.” * y kind, the —————o ___.

Mr. Balfour, first lord of the » deliv- ered « political address at Huddersfield, Eng- land, yesterday. In the course of his remarks he said that Ireland, as an electoral cry, was played out. The liberal leadors appeared to be in doubt whether to play on home rule or the agricultural vote. Mr. Gladstone took one side and Sir William Vernon Harcourt the other. ‘This was s judicious arrangement, being 40 planned that whatever t Up winning card they could carry the game between them. ‘The question presented by the condition of the agricultural laborer in Great Britain deserved better treatment than to be bandied about be- tween wire pullers. The question, in fact, was one of supreme absorbing interest, and the iste could claim that they had shown wil- lingness to treat it ina broad, liberal spirit. After announcing that Mr. Chaplin, the prey- ident of the board of agriculture, would at an early day introduce a small holdings bill Sir. Balfour pointed out that some difiiculty would arise from the vital difference between the conditions in Ireland and the conditions in England. In the former country, he said, small holdings wore already in existence, while sn the latter they had to deal everywhere with large estates, with buildings which would be- come worthless by conversion into allotments. ———_ Officials Arraigned.

D.0. TUESDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1891-TEN PAGES THE MARINE HOSPITAL SERVICE. Annual Report of Dr. Walker Wyman, Su- pervising ®urgeon General. Dr. Walter Wyman, supervising surgeon gen- states that 53,992 saflors were treated in the various marine hospitals and dispensaries of the service during the fiscal year of 1991. Of 1,883 surfmen and keepers of the life-eaving service who were examined physically 59 were rejected for disease or disability. Of 1,182 pr- lots examined for color blindnees 29 were re- fected. Or 243 seamen examined ass pre- Tequisite to their enlistment in the revenue marine sorvice 38 were rejocted. The bureau has been moved to the building on Capitol Hill recently purchased by the sphiont from Gen. ‘Borjanin Butler and bacteriological laboratory transferred building from New York. No general epidemic has prevailed in thi United States during the year, but local demies of scarlct fever and diphtheria and the Fecurrence of the grip in various portions of | % the country are repor Cholera prevailed gxtensively in Avia Minor, Mesopotamia, § Forsia and the Hedjaz,’ also in Japan an jon. Yellow fever was epidemic in Rio Janeiro and was present in other Brazilian ports: also in Havana, Santiago, San Domingo, Barbadoes, Vera Cruz’and on the wost coast of Africa. The surgeon general calls attention tothe prevalence of leprosy, particularly in the ncigh- oring West Indies and South America, and to the presence of the disease in various cities ard localities of the United States, and states that cases may be allowed to exist undisturbed in some localities by the health authorities be- cause no provision is made for their segrega- tion. Whatever theories may be advanced re- garding tho contagiousness of the disease there isno doubt that where indifference is mani- fested as to isolation it slowly sproads, and as no state possesses a leper hospital the estub- lishment of a national leper hospital is recom- mended. ‘The eight national quarantine stations have been in successful operation, and at one sta- tion, namely, Chandeleur, fifty vessels infected with yellow fever were held and disinfected, and no case of yellow fever occurred in any of ‘the southern cities during the senson. An in- spection service has been maintained on the Mexican frontier at El Paso, Tox., also at Rio Janeiro and Havana. Attention is called to the work of the medical officers in connection with the immigration service as provided for by the last Congress; to the notification given to state boards of health of immigrants from infected ports of vessels to insure inspection of baggage and person at the point of destinati and to the department's circular forbidding the entry of rags from Marseilles, France, with- out provious disinfection. REBELLION IN CHINA. The Government Taking Steps to Crush the Revolt, ‘The Chinese government ié fully aware of the serious condition which confronts it and every Posuble step is being taken to break the strength of the rebels before they get within striking distance of the capital. There is much excitement in Pekin among all classes of the Population, and the authorities believe if they an inflict defeat upon the rebel forces it will have «good effect npon the people of Pekin and the vieinity. It is believed that many of the people are secretly in favor of the rebels, but should the imperial forces do battle with the insurgents and defeat them the malcon- tents would then side with the government. No doubt is entertained that the situation is extremely dangerous. Should the rebel forces continue to advance toward the capital in of the efforts of the imperial troops to prevent them itis feared by the foreigners that e whole country will rise and aid the in- vaders. The rebel forces are divided into two sec- tions, but as yet the general public does not know whether or not both columns are march- ing in the direction of.Pekin. In fact, owing to the meager, telegraphic facilities which the country affords, it is hard to get accurate in- formation regarding the movements of the rebels. It is announced, however, that besides the towns in Manchooria that ‘have already fallen into their hands, a small town northeast of Kin Chow had been captured by them. The garrison of Shankaikivan bas been sent to sup- Press other insurrectionary bodies which are marching in, various directions through tl country, evidently with the intention of join- ing the main body. The inhabitants of the districts through which the rebels pass make no resistance to them; on the contrary, they have furnished the soldiery with provisions and have in other ways aided them. ‘The most serious condition of affairs exists at Takou. is the place where the most brutal outrages were committed upon the Christian priests, nuns and native converts. What action the government will take in the atter it is hard to say. That the authorities are in full sympathy with the perpetrators of these most horrible crimes there isno reason to doubt. The first reports ds from Takow stated that after those fiends had worked their bloody will on ail the Christian men, women and children who feil into their hands they were feasted by the leading Chinese mandarins in the district. It is now said that the local mandarins agreed to allow the rebels free license for the outrage of Christians provided they did no harm to the other inhabitants, These terms were actepted by the rebels, and they pursued their work without let or hindrance. Three hundred Enropeans and native Christians were massacred. It is believed that not a single Christian Sn the district eveaped, ‘The government is now having an oppor- tunity to realize the benefits of railway com- munication. ‘The revolutionary movement in the north, as before stated, originated in Man- chooria, on the northeast of China proper, and in Mongolia, which lies to the cast of “Man- chooria. ‘These countries are separated from the emyire by the great wall of China. To guin access to Chins it will be necessary for the rebels to pass the great wall. This gigantic work was built to prevent invasions from the north, and the imperial authorities have taken measures to bring the rebels to a halt there. Li Hung Chang, the Chinese viceroy, has dis- patched several thousand troops to the chief points of the great wall, where it is probable the insurgents will attempt to force, a passage. A desperate resistance will be made at those places to stop the onward progress of the rebels, for. once they pass the great wall, there is no doubt that they will rapidly push on to in, Consternation prevails among the Protestant issionaries in the districts through which it is expected the rebels will ‘The local of- ficials at Tsuna have declared that thoy are werless to protect the missionaries, and that. if they desire to save their lives, they had bet- ter seek safety in flight.
