Leasing Convicts. Release Forty of Them
From q Farm.
AUSTIN, TRx., May 16.-This forenoon
Governor Ireland received telegram
from Major Govee, Superintendent of the
Texas Penitentiary giving information of
the most daring and successful outrage
ever committed in Texas. Forty State

when work was stopped great mob of
armed mon surrounded the guards and
prisoners and demanded the release of
the latter. The guards refused, where.
upon fight ensued in which the conyicts
joined with the moo. The conflict re-
suited in a victory for the attacking
party. who disappeared with the conyicts.
There is no definite information as to
whether there was any killed or wounded.
The outrage is due to the hue and cry
against the employment of convict labor
outside OF the Penltentiaries. The Gov
ernor has offered a reward of 5000 for
the arrest and conviction of any of the
leaders In the outrage.

Crossing the Caspian, he caught a train
one hour after his arrival on the Western

received every attention and facility from
the Russian officials. The Governor
of Tifis rendered him the great

A LONDON MOB.

Trafalgar Square. London. In Possession of
Boisterous Mob, Who Sing "Rule Bri-
tannia," and Indulge in Other Culpable
Demonstrations.
LONDON, May IA riot occurred this
afternoon between mob and the police
for the possession of the Nelson monu
ment in Trafalgar Square. About 10000
persons had assembled in the Square to
make demonstration against the Gov
eminent budget proposals to increase the
duties on spirits and beer. The crowd
was very unruly. The police found them
selves unable to maintain order. The
pressure on the speakers com.
PEELED them to mount the pedestal
of the Nelson Monument. When from
this em!nence the speeches were resumed,
they were rendered inaudible by the up.
roar among the roysterers. The police
interviewed to secure silence for the ora.
tors, and then struggle ensued between
the mob and the police for possession OF
the monument. The row lasted nearly an
hour, and the promoters of the meeting
and the police were compelled to retire,
leaving the crowd singing in triumph.
'RULE BRITANNIA"
Soon after the mob had compelled the
speakers to leave, it surged down to the
front of the National Club, which faces
Trafalgar Square, w. e. Every person
noticed entering or leaving the club
building was mobbed. The attitude of
the crowd was SO menacing that the
Clue doors were closed, and
messenger was dispatched tc
Scotland Yard for additional police. AT
nine O'Clock last night the rioters were
still in full possession of Trafalgar Square
and Northumberland avenue was also oc-
cupied by mob of several thousand.
The police by this time had been largely
reinforced, had charged a number of
times upon the mob and had made several
arrests

BALTIMORE, Nd, May 13.-At 1l:30
O'Clock last night large can of gunpow-
der exploded in the cellar of Theodore
Lear's residence, lis William street
The explosion bulged out the walls of the
house, tore up the floor of the parlor
and entry eading to the dining-room,
shattered the window glass, and made a
report which aroused from their sleep
everybody living within three squares.
Lear and his wife and four children, and
Richard E. Crist, were asleep in the
house at the time. None of them were
injured. Lear is foreman of Baker, Bros.
& Co.'s glass factory, the union glass
blowers of which are on strike. He at
tributes the explosion to the fact that he
is not union man. He lays the explo
sion at the door of the organization. A
reward of 81 900 has been offered for the
arrest and conviction of the perpetrators

A BIG HAUL

Poundmaker and His Indians Capture .
Supply Train of Thirty-one Wagons With
I'm Twelve Miles OF Battleford-The In
habitants of the Latter Place Alarmed.
WINNIPEG, MAN, May 15.-A train
with provisions, which left Swift Cur
rent a week ago, was attacked by Pound
maker and his Indians, and captured after
a fight in which several were wounded
and two killed. Thi1ty-one teams and
twenty-one teamsters were captured. Ten
teamsters escaped. The train was within
thirteen miles of Battleford.
WINNIPEG, MAN, May 15.-Later dis
patches say the train, which consisted OF
thirty-one transport wagons laden with
supplies, ammunition, arms and clothing
for the troops, under escort of ten mount
ed police, left Swift Current for Battle
ford last Friday. The road had been
good aud excellent progress was made.
A point twelve miles from Battleford was
being passed about nine o'clock yester-
day morning, when suddenly a horde
of Indians rushed out OF the
bush from all directions and seize d
the Transfers, of whom there was one
to each wagon. Three or four savages
attacked each teamster, and the latter
were instantly overpowered The
mounted police offered desperate re.
sistance, and for time the exchange of
firing was general. One mounted
policeman, whose name is not
learned, was killed, and several
police and transfers were
wounded. The balance of the police and
teamsters escaped and made all haste to
Battleford, where an alarm was given
The troops at once sprang to arms, and
strong guard was placed about the town.
The Inhabitants were terribly alarmed
but the day wore away without any
attack. Colonel Otter was making
preparations to attack the In
dams, but on second thought resolved to
wait for reinforcements. There is no
doubt about the band being Poundma-
ker's, because they are known to be in
that vicinity. Terrible anxiety is felt in
Winnipeg, as it was understood that the
women and children were to set out fro ID
Battleford for Winnipeg early yesterday
morning.

CENTRAL AMERICA.

The President of Honduras interviewed
Relative to the Late War and the Present
Status of Afairs-The United States
Looked To for Central American Devel-
opment-Reciprocity Wanted.
New ORLEANS, La, May 15.-The
Times Democrat publishes an interview
with President Bogran of Honduras rela-
tive to the late war and present status of
affairs in Central America. Bogran says
there are three parties there, the
Nationals, who favor unification Of
the FIVE States; the Conservatives,
who oppose it, and those who adhere to
the several governments with no opinion
at all on the question of the Union. Him
self, Barrios and Zaldivar, of Salvad or,
made compact to reconstruct the five
States into one republic, which failed
through the treachery of Zaldivar, as is
already known, and resulted in deolara-
ton of war against the latter by Barrios.
With the death of Barrios fell all hopes
Of Central American patriots In Hon.
duras. Barrios was actuated in the
movement by a patriotic sentiment of re-
storing the old republic of 1888, and not
through ambition of becoming dictator
of the united country. His patriotism
was sincere, and he had no hope of be-
coming President of the Union.
Regarding Admiral Jouett's statement
Mr. Bograu said Barrios was too much of
an American to seek European allies.
The only foreign nation whose friendship
he desired was the United States. He
was . friend of the Nicaragua Canal, and
regarded America as generous nation
whom the smaller States need not fear.
Bosran looked to the United States for
the development of Central America, and
would offer every inducement to its citi-
zens in the way of grants. Honduras
desired to close reciprocity treaty with
the United States.

Another Big Brewery Destroyed.

CHICAGO, ILL, May 13.-Michael Brand
4 Co.'s immense brewery, at the corner
of Elston and Fullerton avenues, was dis
covered to be on fire this morning. Three
alarms were sent in, and five engines,

arrival of those called out by subsequent
alarms. The flames spread with great
rapidity, and in less than two hours the
building was completely Quilted. The
loss will be fully $500, 900, and it is re-
ported that there is not dollar of in
surance. So far as known there were no
casualties other than the slight Injury Of
one man who jumped from window.
