AGAINST GAMBLING,
A Bold Lecture From the English Wes-
leyan Conference.

A BoId Lecture From the English Wes-
leyan Conference.
LONDON, AUG ~.-Ino wesleyan
Conference sitting at Nottingham spent
a full hour on Thursday praying for the
conversion of the Prince Of Wales and
other high-placed gamblers and card
players. Next day it solemnly decided
that an archery tournament is Of the
form of gambling in which no good
Wesl evans should join. Newspapers
which report the sayings and doings of
these good folk have throughout the
week devoted much space to the ac-
counts of racing at GoOdwood and the
heavy betting connected Herewith, un-
der the direct personal patronage of
the Prince of Wales, who is apparently
past praying for in this matter.
The same newspapers have fallen
with eyes and mouth wide open into a
trap set for them by the administration
at Monte Carlo. Business being dull, it
became necessary to start another boom
and a story was invented about an
Englishman who has this week won
100000 at roulette, and, more wonder
full still, has sent the money to bankers
in London. The newspapers here have
published the story in full, with the un
usual wealth of headlines, and the ex
pected rush for Monte Carlo has al
ready commenced.
1t will probably be swollen by big
crowd of disgusted Spaniards, who have
just been deprived of the accustomed
facilities for gambling at San Sebastian,
the most fashionable watering place in
Spain, by order of the Minister of JUS
tide. All professional gamblers are to
be expelled from the city, and gambling
at the Casino and cafes is to be sup
pressed. The order is really due to the
initiative of Queen Regent Chris
tiana, who is staying at San Sc
bastian with little King Alfonso, and !
Spaniards of all ranks are furious at her !
action. They attribute it to her cold |
Austrian blood, and sarcaStically sug- !
gest that she may as well try her hand |
next at abolishing another national pas
time-bull fighting.
There is wild talk of establishing a /
great gambling establishment on the I
frontier at Fuenterrabia, but nothing /
tangible will come of it, and il is pretty |
certain that Monte Carlo will secure the |
patronage Of most of those who will not |
be allowed To lose their money at San /
sebastian.

4 FRIGHTFUL TRAGEDY
Takes Place at a Dance in a Colorado
Town.
\ RUFFIAN WITH A KNIFE
Creates CONSERVATION Among Crowd Of People who
Tried to Ejsc. Him-Hs Draws His Gun. and
Drops His Man-An Innocent Woman Killed
in the Fight That Ensusd.

DENVER, COL, August "A special
from Durango, COL, to-day, says: AT a
ball in the Blue Mountains July "a, a
terrible tragedy occurred, which is sell
dom equalled in the history Of crime.
While the dancing was going merrily
and all were enjoying themselves, a
tougR character by the name OF Tom
Roach insisted upon dancing. He was
drunk and armed with knife and a
six-shooter. He was told that the sets
were all full, and was requested not
to interfere with the persons already on
the floor, but he declared that he would
dance, and took hold of a gentleman
who attempted to remove him from the
floor. This was resisted, and the par
ties became engaged in a scuffle, when
q Young man named Frank Hyde, son
of a merchant, VIM. Hyde, attempted
to quiet the disturbance. Roach, turn
ing on Hyde, viciously stabbed him with
a knife, inficting dangerous wounds
in several places.
Roach left the room, but continued to
act in disorderly manner. A cowboy
named Billie McCord, belonging to the
81. c." outfit, tried to pacify Roach by
going out where he was and talking to
him. This seemed to enrage him more
than ever, and drawing his gun he
killed McCord on the spot. BY this
time excitement being intense, and a:
no one was armed, the people were al
most panic stricken. A boy slipped
away to house near by, and secur'
ing Winchester returned to the
school house. He took ain
and fired, but missed Roach and
killed Mrs. Walton, wife of Charles Il
Walton, an eStimable woman, living IL
the community. BY this time conster
nation had seized upon all and terror
reigned supreme. In the excitemen
Roach left the place, since which time
he has not been seen. The entire com
munity are searching for him. Mucl
sorrow is felt for the death OF Mrs. wal
ton and McCord, both Of whom wer'
well known and respected.

BAY STATE REPUBLrCANs AT WAR.
Three Congressman Revolt Against the
DIctatiOn of Henry CabOtLodge.


BosTON, Aug, 2.-The Hon. Henry
Cabot Lodge is reaping the reward of a
long season of petty tranny and bos-
slsm which he has exercised over lis
brother Congressman. The first in
stallment came yesterday in vigorous
snub from Congressman Rockwell,
Cogswell, and Walker, who resigned
from the Committee on Resolutions OF
the State Committee rather than be as
sociated in any way with Mr..
Lodge the Chairman OF the
Convention. Mr.. Lodge has
ridden such high horse in Wash
ington that his fellow Congressman
could not associate with him. He
claimed the honor OF advancing every
piece Of praiseworthy legislation, and
made himself so thoroughly obnoxious
that nothing which bore the stamp Of
his approval, no matter how good 1t
was, was allowed to go through. When,
therefore, the State Committee placed
the reins in Mr.. Lodges hands, and
asked his colleagues to submit to his
dictation, the discomfort became active,
and the Republican party mana
gers are now trying to patch up the big
gest rupture which has occurred in
many day. 1t is now an open fight
between Congressman Lodge and Chair
man Burdette and Secretary Wardwell
of the State Committee on the one side
and all the other Republican Congress
men on the other. The only thing that
vii, put an end to the squabble will be
Mr.. lodges retirement, but as he is
laying his wires for Senator Hoar's seat
it is extremely doubtful if he releases
his grip on the party machinery. He
won't give up without fight. As a
Republican defeat will mean a Lodge
defeat, there Is every prospect that
Gov. Russell will be reelected with
colors flying, while the Republican can
didate, whoever he may be, will be
slaughtered in order to force Dictator
Lodge into private life.

WRIGHTS EXPOSE.
PennSylvania'S Treasurer UnearthS a
Mine of Extravaganza.
THE STATE FUNDS SQUANDERED.
Magistrates Recklsssly Paid for Not Collecting The
Tsxss-Bogus Names Assssssd-Stsrtlirg Facts
Revealed by an investigation Of the Methods
Employed in Collecting the Mercantile Tax.

PHILADELPHIA, August 9.-Since as
suming charge OF his Office City Treas
urer Wright has been making special
efforts to arrive at the facts in connec-
tion with the methods employed in the
collection OF Mercantile taxes, and in
going back as far as the records remain
ing at his disposal would permit he has
discovered what be deems gross abuse
on the part of the appraisers and as
SCISSORS and the needless extravaganza
on the part OF those who have been en-
trusted with the collection OF this tax
from the dclinquents.
The mysterious disappearance OF
books and records OF dates prior 10 John
BardSley's election and induction into
Office, stopped his investigation OF the
methods In vogue before 1889, but he
was able TO satisfy himself that since
that date the Commonwealth has been
subjected To enormous and altogether
needless expense. He found that the
lists were padded almost beyond belief,
and contained thousands OF names that
should under no circumstances have
been placed upon them. Many dead
men were carried from year TO year,
others were duplicated and still others
were wholly fictitious.
1t appears that suits were brought In
one year against 1859 delinquents, and
out OF that number sued the judgments
secured were paid in but 247 cases, re-
alizing for the Commonwealth S2,756.50,
while the costs paid to the Magistrates
for these suits amounted 10 S3l, 1920,
showing that the Commonwealth would
have been the gamer by SOS, 1920 II no
attempt whatever had been made 10
collect these taxes through the Magis-
trateS.
The time having arrived when under
the law the Treasurer must sue for the
recovery OF the delinquent taxes, Mr..
Wright yesterday sent to Auditor Cen
eral McCamant, under whose direction
this portion OF the business must be
transacted, long letter, setting forth
the facts as he finds them, and asking
whether some plan cannot be devised
by which the Commonwealth can be
saved from the enormous expense incl
dent upon the collection by the cnsto.
mary means. He particularly desires
10 know whether he is vested with dis.
cretionary power In the premises, OF
must bring suit, even though inquiry
reveals the fact that no revenue can
possibly result from suit.

What the b. & o. VIII Do.

PIrrsBURG, August General Pas
senger Agent c. o. Scull, of the Balti-
more and Ohio road, arrived in the city
yesterday. He had been inspecting the
new Akron branch with the Vice Presi-
dents and the other officials of the sys-
TEN. He says going over it the first
time they went slow, but coming back
they made the distance of seventy-siX
miles or more in two hours, which Is good
time on a new track. Arrangements
have been made to run passenger trains
to Chicago from the Pittsburg and
Western depot in Allegheny, beginning
August 8. The trains at present leave
at 2:4O in the afternoon. The schedule
will be changed to o'clock, arriving in
Chicago at 7:45 the next morning. Re-
turning, the trains will quit the Windy
City at 6:20 p. N. and reach here at
1855 a. m. Through trains from New
York will be run when the winter
schedule goes into effect. The time will
then be shortened from Pittsburg to
Chicago at least three hours. 1t is ex-
pected that by November the track will
be settled and speed can be made.
Mr. Scull says the excursion business
Is ahead of last season in spite of the
cold weather August is the best month
for the seashore. Up to the present
time it has rained heavily along the At
lantic, and people have walked around
wearing OvercoatS and straw hats.

Cb,ne.e Must Have Certificates.

WASHINGTON, d. c., August 2.-The
Secretary of the Treasury has issued
a circular to customs officers promul-
eating the decision Of the United States
Supreme Court in the case of Wah
Shing, and saying that under this decis-
ion all Chinese, not laborerS, now resi-
dent in the United States, who may de-
sire to visit China or other countries
and return to the United States, will be
required to present at the port of first
arrival in the United States as condi-
tion precedent of landing, the certili-
cate provided for by section six of the
act approved May 6, 1882, as amended
by the act approved July 5, 1884. Col
lectors of customs at ports where Chi
neSe arrive are instructed to cancel
these certificates and register them on
the files OF the custom house.

A Church Fight.

CLEVELAND, o., August 2.-There
were lively times at St. LodisileS Catho-
lie church, on COrwin Avenue, to-day.
The congregation is made up of Hun
Qarians and SlavS about evenly divided,
and there has been great rivalry be-
tween the two nationalities. Finally
the priest, Father Maratuve, decided to
hold services for the SlavS in the morn
ing and for the Hungarians in the after
noon. This morning the Huns wished
to dedicate banner and the
priest gave them half Of the service.
When he began to speak in Bohemian
the Huns left the church and created a
disturbance outside. The Slavs went
out and drove the Huns from the church
wards using clubs and paving stones. A
battle was in progress when the police
arrived and put a stop to hostilitieS. 1t
was necessary to take the priest 10 his
home under police escort. No one was
seriously hurt but there was great ex-
citement around the church all after
noon.
