RIOT IN HOMESTEAD.
Non-Unlon Nero WORKERS Battle with
Mob Of Strikers.

HOMESTEAD, Pa, Now .-14.-The period
Of comparative quietness which has pre-
vailed in Homestead since the militia
left died yesterday, and the pent up
feelings Of the strikers broke out afresh
in Il riot in which at least fifty shots
were fred, but miraculously no person
was killed, though score were hit by
flying bullets.
A party of seven colored non-union
men were on their way to their boarding
house about 4:45 o'clock yesterday after
noon, when man supposed to be
striker attacked two of the negroes,
Charles Carroll and Fred Lewis. Lewis
was knocked down. This was signal
for n large crowd to gather at the scene
of the trouble. Lewis companions came
to his rescue, and a terrible riot took
place between the colored men on one
side and the crowd. supposed to be all
strikers, al the other.
The two sides fought desperately and
fired their revolvers and slashed each
other with knives at close quarters for
several minutes, when the negroes made
q dash through the crowd for their
boarding house. They were followed by
the crowd, which by this time num-
bered at least 1000, including many
women and children. The crowd fred
at the fleeing negroes, and they in turn
returned the FIRE on the crowd, and how
80 many escaped instant death is a
miracle.
AT least two dozen people were injured
by flying missiles, but as far as can be
learned none were killed.
The seven negroes and a number Of
strikers havo been arrested. The great
est excitement prevails here and more
deputies have been asked for.

An Alleged Election Plot in Which ''the
Soeklessn Was Implicated.

An Alleged Election Plot in Which "the
Soekless" Was Implicated.
TOPEKA, Nov 14.-The biggest sensa-
ton connected with the late Kansas CAM
paign is made public. 1t is the public
confession of L. S. Harvey, assistant
secretary of the Peoples party campaign
committee, Harvey has been charged
with giving out the secrets of the COM
mittee, and yesterday, todefcnd himself,
he exposed the plot which was arranged
in Topeka to have an attempt made to
assassinate Jerry Simpson. Harvey says
the parties to the scheme were w. e.
Jones, chairman of the Democratic state
committee; Briedenthal, chairman of the
Peoples party committee, and Jerry
Simpson. The object was to create SYM
pathy for Simpson and aid in his cleo
tion.
"The PLAN" SAYS Secretary Harvey,
twas to have Simpson return to his dis
trict and be waylaid and beaten and
bruised in the pretended effort to. as
sassinate him, the letters to be found re-
garding the employment of a man to
murder him, as has been published, and
the whole to offset southern outrageS

ing the discussion of this scheme Jerry
objected to being beaten and bruised up,
but he was talked out OF the opinion and
agreed to undergo the punishment, but
insisted that the fellow who did the
pounding must not carry it too far"
Mr.. Harvey further says that owing
to the blunder of Simpsons district
chairman the letters offering So, 900 re-
ward to the man who would murder
Simpson were found and the sham at
tempted assassination was prevented.
When General Weaver was here Chair
man Briedenthal urged Harvey to hire
some one to walk beside Weaver's car
riage and pelt him with eggs, so that the
outrages in the south might be repeated
in Kansas, the object being to place the
blame on the Republicans.
The exposure by Harvey has created
great deal Of excitement here, and many
threats are made against him. He went
to his home, fifteen miles from Topeka,
yesterday, and telegram was sent him
not to come to Topeka,

PARIS, Nov. 14.-The much trumpeted
meeling Of anarchists in this city yester-
day was a worry paltry affair. Many of
the leaders, who were expected to glory
in the last explosion and incite their fol-
lowers to initiate Ravachol, were afraid
to show themselves, and consequently
the meetings lacked speakers. About
forty men and three or four women
gathered in the wine shop cellar in Rue
Lagaite, where the demonstration was
advertised to take place. Just before
the first speaker rose some twenty po-
hcemen in citizens clothes walked in,
and i'll few minutes an equal number
Of detectives appeared. This force was
SO considerable that the anarchists did
not venture to make any incendiary
speeches. After two hours Of very tame
oratory tho meeting adjourned indef-
nitely,

CHICAGO, Nov. 14.-A shooting affair,
which will probably cause the. loss Of
three lives, took place in a disorderly
house on Clark street kept by Frank
Whitaker and Susis Hess. Charles
Ryan, of Sycamore, Ill.,, tried to induce
the Hess woman to leave Whitaker and
go with him. This she declined to do
and told Ryan to leave the house. While
they were talking Whitaker entered the
room. Ryan drew a revolver from his
pocket, and pressing the muzzle against
the Hess woman's right side. pulled the
trigger. The bullet passed through the
woman's body and lodged in the left side.
Ryan then turned around and fired two
shots at Whitaker. One of the bullets
struck Whitaker on the left side Of the
back, passed through his body. Ryan
stepped hastily into an adjoining room,
and, placing the revolver to his head,
sent bullet through his brain, killing
himself instantly. The injuries of the
wounded man and woman are fatal.

IT'S MERE GUESSwORK,
Nothing Definite to BE Learned Before the
Official Count in Ohio.

o"ciAi count IN pHhO
CINCINNATI. Nov. lit is little better than
useless to undertake to say before the officia
CONT isreceived how Ohio stands either as to the
presidential the state ticket. The putations
made by the state committees and by the news
papers based upon unofficial and in most
counties upon partly estimated reports. The
only thing they do show with certainty is that
nothing but the entire official count will dis
close the true situation.
For instance, the Commercial GGzette OF this
city gives the Cleveland electors a plurality of
no. But II says this Ii based on official and
semi-official returns from eighty-one counties
and estimates from the remaining seven coun-
ties.
On the other hand the Enquirer states that
democratic experts have official figures from
fifty-four counties and have received tele-
graphic advices from the remaining thirty-four
counties and that the result is favorable to the
republicans, but they decline to give any fur
Their estimates.
The republicans claim, upon the same basis

state by 1880
Then there is the singular prediction of
voters in voting against certain cleo Of their
party which must be taken into consideration.
In vote 80 close as this it is possible that
portion of both tickets might be elected. Nerv-
BUSINESS over possible manipulations of the re-
turns is already apparent.
Inc republican secretary OF state Col. T.. l..
Poorman, is the state supervisor of election,
and it has already been suggested that a pro-
vision In the. old election law. which
required that in the event of the dis
covery by the secretary OF state of an
error in the footing up Of the returns from
any county the abstract must be returned to
the county clerk for correction, would not be
obeyed by the present secretary OF state on the
ground that the new lawp puts the county boards
ofelection in charge of elec ton returns and does
not require or authorize them to make correc-
tons, their functions ceasing when their alb
stract is forwarded.
As an instance of the violent changes from
last years vote the sixteenth district, which
last year had a republican plurality Of l ,324
this year elects Pearson. democrat. by
from 16O to $780, according to unofii-
cal reports. The ninth district, which gave
Mckinley 100, elects Richie, democrat. by a
majority of IA. And the eighteenth district,
which in 1891 gave Mckinley a plurality OF
2. 800 votes, elected Ikert democrat, this year
