NEW YORK, Dec. 9.-The clash between
Parkhurst and Superintendent of Police
Byrnes has worked itself down to an open
and decidedly wrathy debate. Parkhur
gave out caustic reply to Byrnes to-
night. In it he says in part: "The gospel
requires us to deal leniently with sinners
Byrnes deals leniently with sin, which is
quite another matter. His business is to
take iniquity and make it exorable in
public estimation, which is exactly what
he has not been doing. He says he has

has been a time during the past ten
months when the social vice was prac-
ticed more tiagrantly than three weeks
subsequent to the November election.
We cannot have an effective department
till the animating head of it is a moral in
spiration to the force. Just try to con-
ceive now of Byrnes as a moral inspira-
ton. He says: TO hide evil from public
view cannot corrupt the morals Of youth
Why doesn't he hide it from public view?
He says he can show me a weIl-trodden
path that leads from the very door of my
church as it were, to a brothel hardly
gunshot away.

SPOKANE (Wash.), Dec. ga terrible
riot occurred at Wenatchee last night,
and for three hours the town was in con-
troll of a mob of frenzied graders and
Italians. Wenatchee is town about a
hundred miles west on the Great North
ern road. The trouble was started by
a drunken railroad man and gambler
named Tom Guilland. He worked on
the road at different times during the
year, coming to town to carouse every
payday. On these occasions he stopped
with a woman known as Susette. This
woman for a month past has been living
with Giuseppe Waco, a faro dealer who is
sort of boss among the Italians, of
whom there are great numbers on the
road.
A week ago Guilland came to town, and
after two days his money was all gone.
Yesterday he was paid small sum
| OF money which was coming to him, I'd,
starting a crap game, wound up iDe he
evening by breaking the faro bank, oe-
ing over $1,000 ahead. Susette heard the
| news and started for the place, saying
she would go with the man who had
tSteAs NOO SbOPPONl iOI oIAOtN1CAIAllS5 W
kill her. Guilland knocked him down
and started off with the woman. Before
they had gone a block Waco and dozen
other Italians were upon them and a
fierce fight ensued.
The screams of the woman and shouts
of Guilland brought gang Of graders to
the rescue. Thereupon Waco summoned
more Italians, and a pitched battle was
soon in progress. The railway men
gathered in q group, with Guilland and
the woman in the center, and began to
retreat slowly, firing as they went, and
calling for help as they fell back. Others
joined them, and finally they made a
stand. The Italians pressed them closely,
and it seemed for time as though the rail-
road men would be wiped out, but eventu-
ally their superior armament, most of
them having revolvers, saved them.
Many, however, were badly cut by
knives, and wounded by stones and other
missiles thrown by Italians.
Both parties gradually broke up into
small bands, and scattered through the
town, Guilland and the woman having
been spirited away to place of safety
Fighting between small parties continued
in different parts of town until daylight.
Tonight it is learned that about a
dozen men were injured, none fatally.

PANAMA CANAL FRAUDS.

Corrupt Acts Unearthed by the In
VestiGating Committee.
PARIS, Dec. "a member of the Pan
anna Investigating Committee said to-day
to a representative of the Associated
Press: When it is considered that we
have been working in the dark, unaided
by information from the hands of the
Government and the courts, we have
done well III unearthing corrupt acts.
We must now go right on, and stop for
nothing or nobody. We shall report on
the 10th OF January, when the Panama
canal Company's affairs come before the
courts. The Judicial authorities can pros
ecute the guilty persons, whom we will
designate. The enemies of the Republic
wish 10 keep up the scandal as long as
possible IN order to influence the cleo
uons Tor members of the Chamber of
Deputies next autumn. Possibly the
socialists VIII gain new seats on account
of the scandal.
1t is rumored that Clemenceau is in
voIved IN the scandal. Herv, it is said,
cashed Panama checks drawn in his
favor.
Three members of the Panama Com
mlttee, who were sent to examine the
books of the firm of Kohn Il Reinach, re-
ported to-day that they found that during
the first six months OF 1883, Arton, the
alleged go-between, on several occasions
had drawn on account OF Baron Reinach
l,0O0,000f.
Ribot, Prime Minister, was present at
the session of the committee to-day, and
promised to act in concert with it, and as
slst IN throwing full light upon the whole
Panama affair. Bourgeois, Minister of
Justice, was also present, and declared
the Government was ready to communi-
cate to the committee judicial documents
bearing on the Panama Canal Company
on condition that the members preserve
such secrecy regarding them as would
prevent the disclosures from interfering
with the course OF justice.
BEAUPRE RESIGNS.

BERLIN, Dec. 9.-The Ahlwardt case
ended to-day, he being sentenced to five
months imprisonment. The Public
Prosecutor made strong speech against
him, saying, among other things, that
there was no justification whatever in
the charges that Loewe manufactured
detective rifles and sold them to the Gov
ernment. He maintained that the charge
OF libel against AhlWardt had been
proved.

duced in that body Immediately after the
announcement of his election.
In passing sentence on Rector Ahl-
wardt, the Judge declared the charge that
the rifles were Illegally stamped proved
untounded. The military tests of Loewe's
guns had given brilliant results. Ahl-
Wardts numerous libels upon private
persons and upon Gunmaker X Kirch were
punishable by law. Nothing could ius-
tlfy the plea that Ahlwardt had acted for

BRUSSELS, Dec. 9.-Bimetallist dele
gates to the International Monetary Con-
ference are discussing whether or not
they shall unite in signing a memoran-
dun on the obstruction offered by Great
Britain to the determination of questions
before the conference if the conference
resumes its sittings after prolonged ad-
journment. Such a protest, it is con-
celved,i is likely to induce the British Gov
ernment ito present to the conference a
decided policy through its delegates act
ing in union thereon. The present Brit
ish delegation appears to have been sent
purposely to muddle the proceedings.
There is no cohesion among the British
representatives, either as to principles or
as to procedure. Each delegate appears
to act as an individual agent, except Sir
G.. Rivers Wilson and Sir G. Fremantle
Deputy Master of the British Mint. the
latter of whom used his official position

ard have strong mutual contempt for
each others views. Neither General
Straghey nor Sir Guilford Molseworth,
Indian delegates, have official orders as
10 tne course 10 take.
1t has been made clear the British Gov
ernment has purposely avoided giving
any instructions tending to the common
action OF its delegates upon any point
whatever. 1t is now obvious this course
was designed to foil the conference in
coming to any general or special solution
oi the silver question.
1t Is expected that Senator Jones will
wind up the debate in the Monetary Con-
ference on Tuesday with an important
declaration. The concluding sitting on
thursday Will endeavor to crystalline the
results of the conference. Regret has

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The proposition
to choose the President by direct vote Of
the people promises to meet with more
than usual consideration by the Commit
tee on Election of President and Vice
President and Representative in Con-
gress. The committee had meeting to-
day. At the last session of Congress
Springer introduced a joint resolution
providing for Presidential and Vice
Presidential term of six years, with in
eligibility of incumbents TO reelection,
and also provides a scheme for electing
them by a direct vote of the people.
Springer addressed the committee to-day,
and was followed by Colonel Mcclure,
who indorsed Springer's sentiments.
Representative Beltzhoover of Pennsyl-
vania introduced a resolution in the
House few days ago which has for its
object the election of President and Vice
President by a direct vote of the people,
and this was referred TO a subcommittee.
Treasury officials attach no special sig
nihcance to dispatches from Denver in
regard to the panlcky condition of silver
mining interests in Colorado. The fact
that many small mines are being aban-
doned is taken to indicate simply that
they are played out, and can no longer
be worked at profit. 1t is held that the
recent depreciation in silver in the Lon
don market, and the predicted failure of
the International Conference to advocate
a more liberal use of silver as money, can
have no direct bearing on the present,sit-
uation in Colorado, for the reason that
silver has risen in value within the past
few days, the Treasury Department pay
holt l,aT NlFtV
Representative Enloe, who assisted in
conducting the prosecution in the investi-
CATION into the charges against the adj
minstration of the Pension Office, has
returned to Washington. He remem-
bered that majority of the committee
reported a resolution reciting the judg
ment Of the House that Commissioner
Raum should be removed from office by
the President. The report was not con-
sidered by the House at the last session,
and Enloe wants to push it now. He
also thinks some action should be taken
by Congress that will result in looping
Off from the pension rolls the names of
great number of persons which have no
right to be there.
HsThe strong pressure being exerted by
the Territories makes it now probable
that a Joint conference of Democratic
Senators and Representatives will be
held within few days to determine the
steps to be taken by the party in the two
houses in relation to the admission of the
Territories into the Union.
The Secretary of the Treasury has in
formed the Speaker of the House that the
deficiencies of the current fiscal year are
estimated at Sl4, ,636, $40, of which O,50O,-
900 is on account of pensions.
The Treasury Department to-day pur-
chased 900 ounces Of silver at $0.6405
