CRISP IN TIE NORTH.
a Big Demonstration in His
Honor at Detroit

DETROIT, Mich, oct. 19.-Thc Demo-
Gratis had their demonstration last night.
Speaker Crisp was given an enthusiastic
welcome. He spoke at great length on
the tariff question and made good i'm
preston with his logical discussion of
the subject. The present tariff law,
iathered by Mckinley, he said, was inju-
rious to the laborer, farmer, manufac-
turer and professional man alike, for in
stead of atording protection it imposed
a heavy burden upon them. The pre-
vaiIing low prices in the United States,
he asserted, are not the result of the Nc
kinley law, but have been brought about
by large crops and labor saving machin-
cry. The force bill and the Southern ques-
ton were also discussed by the speaker,
whodenounced the former as an iniqui
tous measure.

and "A $500 Reward IL Offered
by Chairman Moody.
When the Republican managers came
up to headquarters this morning they
discovered that their naG-the great big
spread-eagle flag, which has spanned
Patton ayenue-was missing. They i'm.
meCiately set up the cry that it had been
cut down by some enemy, who didn't be-
lieve in fair play. A telegram was at
once sent to Jeter {. pritchard, who like.
wise at once replied advising the Offering
of reward for the thieves" who did
this thing.
Accordingly circulars were printed
which declared in large letters that $500
reward would be paid for information
sufficient to convict the thieves who
stole the banner" This was signed by
NJ. Moody, chairman of the Republican
committee.
The matter soon began to be talked
about generally, and there were some
| who went SO far as to say they believed
he Republicans knew more about the
business than they cared to admit. 81 s

piled in the affirmative. then told him
that if he would deposit the $500 in the

EDITOR THE CITIZEN Il went to ke-
publican headquarters this morning and

A FATAL SLUGGING MATCH AT
PORTLAND, ORE.

Years-Seventeen-Y Year-Old Pearl Hen
derson Mauled to Death by Fifteen
Year-Old Charles Bsll-No Arrests.

PORTLAND, Ore., March 13. - Pearl
Henderson, boy aged II, was killed in
a prize fight with Charles Bell, aged 10,
this afternoon, about two miles east of
this city. The boys were both handy
with the gloves, and for some time had
been anxious to determine which was
the better man. This afternoon they
arranged with number of their friends
to accompany them to patch of woods
! near the city, where ring was pitched
i. and referees were chosen. They shook
hands, and began punching each other
Bells objective point seemed to be
Henderson's heart, and he landed blow
after blow in that locality.
After fighting twenty-three rounds.
Be II fouled Henderson and the fight was
awarded to the latter. Immediately
after the decision was given, Hender-
son fell to the ground unconscious.
The spectators became greatly alarmed,
and a physician was sent for. He ar.
rived before the boy died, but could do
nothing for him. The physician oh.
tanned the names of a number of those
who witnessed the fight, and it ia
thought they will be arrested. Many oil
them, however, fled when they saw
the unfortunate youth was about to
die.
Bell has not yet been arrested.
Both boys were of respectable parent
age.

WIMAN PREDICTS WAR.
A SERIOUS VIEW OF THE BERING
SEA COMPLICATION.
The English Government Hard Pressed
by Canada for Protection and Equal
Rights With Americans-Then, Too,
the Tories Want Campaign Issue.

CHICAGO, March 13.-The well-known
Canadian political economist and finan.
cier, Erastus Wiman, who is visiting
here. talks seriously Of war between
England and the United States, as the
outcome of the Bering sea complication.
1.-The English government" said he, in
an interview, sis under tremendous
pressure from Canada, which is in q
mood to insist that Canadian sealers be
protected and given equal rights with
Americans on the high seas. Besides,
the coming contest in England makes it
incumbent that diversion OF some kind
be created to secure Tory success at the
polls. 1t is not improbable that Wig
>orous foreign policy will prevail during
the coming summer. in which the
peace of the world my be threatened.
Actual hostilities are doubtful, but
many war has sprung from less seri-
GUS causes. The threat of retaliation in
the shape of the abolition of the bond
ing privilege, which allows goods des-
tined to Canada to pass through the
United States without duties, and vice
versa, would be a two-edged weapon,
far more hurtful to the cities of the
United States than to Canada. If this
is the only retaliatory measure Canada
fears, after suffering the terrible exclu-
sion implied by the Mckinley bill, it
will only solidify its adhesion to British
connection and strengthen its determi-
nation to keep Independent of the
United States.'

SAN FRANCISCO, March 13.-Politics,
both state and municipal, has grown to
fever heat, and already the fight foi
representation in the national conven-
tion has begun. All day there was a
crowd of politicians about the corridors
of the Palace hotel, and the issues ol
Importance in the campaign were 6is-
cussed with vigor. Candidates for dele
gates to the Republican national con-
vention are springing up rapidly. Los
Angeles has two men in the fight,
Gen. E. F. Johnson, who is Governor
Markham's business partner and close
personal friend, is seeking to be chosen
as delegate-at-large. E. F. Spence OF
Los Angeles is out for the place as dele
gate from the new sixth congressional
district. San Bernardino has two can
didates in the seventh district, aud the
contest will be warm one. They are
Joseph Brown. wealthy landowner,
and Sheriff Seymour.
The Republican state central commit
tee will meet in the Palace hotel tomor-
meeting, the executive committee held
a meeting this evening. 1t was decided
to recommend that the state convention
be held May Sd, and that the basis of
representation be one delegate to every
$50 Republican voters. This would
make convention of about $50. 1t was
also determined to recommend that two
state conventions be held, one for the
election of delegates to the national con-
vention, and the other for the nomina-
tion OF presidential electors.
The committee will probably recon-
mend that the representation shall be
made upon the vote cast at last guber-
material election, instead of upon the
presidential vote. This raises. the inev-
liable contest between the city and
country, and will be strongly fought.
Col. H. 2. Osborne of Los Angeles will
lead the opposition.
The only other matter that promises
some life is the choice of place for hold
ing the convention, Stockton, Sacra-
mento and San Jose are in the field
actively. SacTamento has been work
ing effectively, and early this evening it
looked as though she would score an
easy victory, but Stockton came into the
field and made rapid headway. San
Jose does not make very vigorous fight,
''but we want it if we can get it," said
Mr.. Hall, land if San Jose is selected,
the party and delegates will never have
cause to regret it. We will take good
care of Them"

Claus Spreckels Says He VIII Never Join

PHILADELPHIA March 13.-A reporter
talked with Claus Spreckels about the
absorption of the Franklin refinery by
the sugar trust.
''If the rumor proves true," Spreckels
eaid, "it means that all the sugar inter-
ests of this country are combined
against me. This the public believes
will narrow competition down to it's
lowest limit, but there never was a
greater mistake made by consumers.
The trust, even if it owned every
refinery in the land, and had
not the opposition which will come from
factories, would meet with the bitterest
kind OF competition from foreign coun-
tries. The Mckinley tariff bill pro-
vides for this, and sugar monopoly is
impossible, as are most of the other
monopolies talked Of and written about

"Will you ever join the trust?" asked

piled.

Charles R. Parkhurst preached another
sermon this morning attacking the ad-
ministrators of the city government
most vigorously. In the course of his
sermon. he said when he gave informa-
ton of law breaking to the district at
torney, the latter paid no attention to
it. He thought the reason of this was
that he (Parkhurst) was not ''solid." :"
This remark was followed with a fierce
attack on the Tammany Hall organiza-
tion, in which, among other Shings,
it was declared "You cannot get
anything from Tammany unless you
are solid with Tammany. Though a
man work night and day for the city he
loves, he has no rights Tammany is
bound to respect. rhe fact is, Tammany
Hall is not so much political organiza-
ton as commercial corporation, organ
lied and carried on in the interest of
making the most possible out OF it's

SAN Francisco, March ia special
dispatch from La Union to the Mer-

the bottom of the mail steamer Calima
has been found and stopped. This
would indicate that the damage is not
very serious. As there are no facilities
at La Union to make more than the
most trifling repairs to an iron vessel, it
is probable that Captain Austin will be
able to complete the trip without assist
