ARGENTINE REPUBLIC RIOTS.
Country Agitatcd Over the Approach
ing Presidential Election.

New York, Feb. 2i.-The Herdld's Buenos
Ayres special says: The country continues
in condition of great agitation over the
approaching presidential election. The
riots and frauds which disgraced the re-
cent congressional Sunday elections stirred
UP public indignation, which has increased
as the investigation into the charges
against officials has proceeded.
At San Luis, capital of the province Of
the same name, 425 miles northwest of
Buenos Ayres, the disturbances are most
serious. In a conflict between the police
and members of the Radical party, the
former discharged firearms at the crowd.
After firing ceased il was found that
twenty-four civilians were wounded and
two killed. 4 large number of persons
were arrested They were treated very
harshly, not being permitted to communi-
cate with friends.
The wounded, it is alleged, were left un-
attended for several hours, and many
were in danger of death. Senior Arias was
one of those killed. Senior Salvador, who
was also shot dead by police, was one of
the foremost Radicals in San Luis, and
had large following. His killing aroused
a storm of indignation throughout the
province.
Frauds in the elections in San Luis are
also causing bitter criticism. Shooting
took place in almost all the departments,
and in almost every instance was accom-
panied by rows. which resulted in killing
or wounding civilians by the police. This
was especially the case in the departments
of Santa Rosa and Belgrano.
Luis Saenz Pena now appears certain of
election as president. The report that
President Pelligrini and General Roca, the
former president. favors his candidacy is
confirmed. Meetings of the committee to
select a suitable candidate were held in
Buenos Ayres Thursday night and they
cordially agreed on Pena.
Word was received today of great dis
tress among the farming population of
Mendoza owing to the locust plague.
Sixty per cent. of the vines in the province
were destroyed by pests.
The foreign minister's attention is now
engaged upon points relative TO the limits
of Chile IN the boundary question. 1t is
stated that the difficulty between the
Argentine limitation commission and
Chile arises from a difference of opinion
in the Interpretation of the treaty fixing
the boundary.

AN ALLEGATION OF FRAUD.
Against Snohomish Mill Man, Who De-
MES the Charge.

TACOMA, Feb. 21.-[special l-sam A.
Buck, proprietor of Snohomish shingle
mill, which is included in the North Pa
cific Consolidated Company trust, was
brought here today by Captain Ward on
warrant charging him with obtaining
money under false pretenses. Manager S.
A. Gibbs, of the trust, made the COM
plant, alleging that Buck by false bill of
lading as to the quantity of shingles in a
car load of shingles consigned to McCreary
Bros, st. Louis, obtained from the shingle
trust S105 to which he was not entitled.
Buck was taken before Police Judge
Parker and at once gave bail. He stated
that he would gladly have saved the city
the expense of coming to Snohomish after
him if he had been notified by wire. In
that event he would have come here forth
with. He had known of the misunder-
standing regarding the shipment of the
shingles, but it was merely business
transaction, thers being no intention to
defraud.

Utica last fall.

robbed Express Messenger Moore near
Utica last fall.
The story of what occurred in the ex-
press car, as far as it can be gathered, is:
Cross boarded the train when it pulled out
OF Syracuse, climbing on the top of the ex-
press car. He was provided with "a
hooked rope. Fastening the hook in the
roof on the side of the car he let himself
down on the other side and resting his
toes on the ledge that runs across the car,
looked through the glass of the side door
ana saw the messenger in front of
one of the safes, which was
open. Smashing the glass with his
revolver, he covered the messenger, order
ing him to hold up his hands. Instead
Mcfnery reached for the signal cord with
one hand and for his revolver with the
other. A bullet smashed his hand, but
not before the signal was given that
aroused the conductor. Then McTnery
fired on the robber, putting bullet
through his coat. The robber shot the
messenger twice, once in each leg, climbed
into the car and desperate struggle took
place, which did not end till the train was
stopped for the first time near Weedsport.
1t is evident that the robber then climbed
out on top of the car, remaining there until
1t stopped at Lyons. As far as learned the
robber secured absolutely nothing.
1t is now learned that the robber was
formerly cowboy and later worked as a
railway brakeman.

The Great Organization to Go to tho
Convention Uninstructed.
ALBANY, Feb. 2l.-Tonight it is under
stood that Tammany decides not to go to
the Chicago convention under instructions
for any one. A prominent Tammany man
said possibly that it would be better pol
itics for Hill to go to Chicago simply as a
Democrat and not as the iron-bound
choice of any organization; and possibly,
too, Tammany may prefer to go as pow
erful organization not determined to press
any one man, but at the same time with
warm. and, if needed. earnest friendship
for Hill. Then the power of each might
be greater upon the delegates from other
states.
ELMIEA, n. Y, Feb. 21-Five hundred

Club. started for Albany tonight to attend
the Democratic state convention. Dele

posed of representative young Democrats,
and they will do everything in their power
to boom Hill for president. Elmira is the
