Many of tho Negroes of tho city wero surly and moody Tuesday night and It was realized that only a spark was needed to set off tho magazine of a race war At 845 oclock small crowds of whites gathered In the vicin ¬ ity of the levee and all the day police had been ordered to report for duty nighttr a crowd of about 2 assembled at the Big f Four railroad tracks almost blockad ¬ ing Washington street
