New Orleans, Sept, 21.—The sandy
soil of “bloody" Tangipahoa parish was
today again dyed in crimson. The home
of Louis Hotfelter, who lives on the
Illinois Central railroad at Pouchatouia
station, was forcibly entered last Tues

dollars. This crime, after a diligent
search, was fastened on a gang of ma
negro toughs,
* cl tfeu suspected darkies were
captured ar.u placed in the more or less
insecure jail, which , ouid not resist the
attacks of a mob of determined whites,
who broke it down and took the
four negroes and hung them in the
nearby woods, riddling the bodies with
bullets as an affectionate adieu,
