Thames Bridge, Near the Parliament
Building-No Clew to the
Guilty Parties.

LONDON, Nov. Sit was learned
this afternoon that a loaded conical
bomb weighing 10 pounds was found
Wednesday last upon the buttress of
Westminster bridge close to the house
CT parliament. The bomb was taken
possession of by the police and con-
veyed to Scotland Yard. The bomb
was found on one of the buttresses on
the side nearest the house of commons
wrapped neatly in brown paper and
tied with a stout cord. From the no
siticn in which found the police say it
was dropped to the ledge by a passer
by. Visits to Scotland Yard resulted
in compelling the officers to admit that
a dynamite plot had been discovered,
though Scotland Yard pretended it
was plot of no Importance.
A reporter then hired a boat and
was rowed out to the middle of the
Thames where a number of workmen
were cleaning the bridgework. Here
the reporter found the two men who
discovered the bomb. From these
men the reporter learned that the par
Gel found upon the bridge and now in
possession of the police was undoubt-
edly a bomb and that it had fuse
attached. The men also asserted in
addition to the bomb several large
cartridges supposed to be loaded with
dynamite were found upon another
buttress on the same bridge.

SOCIALIST MOB IN VIENNA.
Desperate Fighting Between the Police
and a Frenzisd Mob-Many Injured.

Desperate Fighting Between the Police
and Frenzied Mob-Many Injured.
VIENNA, Nov. 3.--There was fierce
fighting in this city tonight caused by
an attempt by Socialists to invade
Ronatieher music hall where meet
ing of Liberals was being held. The
object of the Liberal gathering was to
pass vote of want of confidence in
DIR. Keonwetter, representative of
Vienna in the reichsrath. The meet.
ing was originally fixed for Friday
last but was prevented by the action
of the Radicals, body of whom in
vaded the hall and refused to allow
the Liberals to proceed. The police
finally had to clear the hall of all its
occupants and lock the doors.
Then it was arranged to hold a
meeting this evening when only those
holding tickets would be admitted. AS
another attempt at interference was
anticipated strong force of police was
stationed in the vicinity. Liberal
stewards were stationed in the lobby
to prevent the entrance of any Social
lists. By 1880 Schelling strasse was
thronged with clamorous mobs of So
cialists and workmen. They jeered
every Liberal and tried to block their
passage, but 800 Liberals gained en-
trance under the protection OF the
police.
The mob began shouting Down
with the Liberals!" Down with the
dogs!n Down with the cowardly enc
mics of the people" and sang the labor
song, "Hed Arbeit." The mob finally
made charge on the police and tried
to force their way into the hall.
The commanding inspector was
knocked down and trampled upon.
His men in trying to rescue him
welded their sabres right and left.
The scene for time was fearful. Both
sides fought savagely and the result
was many bloody heads among the
mob, while all the police were bruised,
beaten and their uniforms torn. The
fight caused panic among the people
and houses and shops were closed, The
police were soon reinforced and the
mob driven out of the street, although
they resisted stoutly.
They were at last dispersed, but
later gathered in groups in different
parts of the city and listened to violent
speeches by leaders of the Socialists,
some of whom urged the people to
rise and overthrow the state which
cut them down for the sake of the
Liberals. At 8 o'clock the greatest ex-
citement continued and the police in
gtrong force were engaged in break
inc up different gatherings.
The number of wounded during the
evening was large, although the ex-
act figure cannot be learned, because
many of the injured we're carried OH,
The wounded police were taken to the
hospital. Three of the rioters were
arrested, including the man who made
the attack. At 1890 the streets were
quiet. A body of Socialists after the
fight made q demonstration in front OF
the palace of Arch Duke Wilhem IN
King, shouting: Long live the re-
public" The police made number
of furious charges before they succeed
ed in scattering the mob. Many
rioters were wounded.

Official promise has been given that
nobody will be shot without fair
trial. Troops are in all the cities in
barracks. President Zelaya claims
that foreigners were mainly instru-
mental in bringing about the revolu-
tions, having set up the claim that
their property was exempt from loans,
which have always been repaid to
them. The European element here is
the only one opposed to the cana
company, which is partly accounted
for by their jealousy OF Americans
who are assuming leadership in trade,
The Nicaraguan government will pro
tect American Interests. The presi-
dents action against foreigners is
severely criticised. Several Spanish
houses threaten to withdraw from the
country.

of Texas, cainot be unmin6fulot your
obligations, and listlessly, indiffer-

leave few heroic hearts and willing
hands to do that which the memory
of your noble ancestry should inspire.
A work in which you are, or should
be, equally interested. The nation
and other states revere the memory of
their fallen heroes and are at work
with the zeal which inspires the true
patriot. And Texas, the grandest one
OF all, whose thrilling and triumphant
history has never been equalled, will
not. can not, be stoically indifferent
to the memory of her gallant dead.
Rally round the "Lone Starr and en-

Remember the mothers and
fathers whose blood was shed
and whose bones lie bleaching on
Texas plains, all sacrificed to make
Texas a free and Independent state,
and to deliver it from oppression.
Remember Faunin as he penned
this, his almost dying declara ton, to
Lieutenant.G Governor Robinson, that if
he did not receive relief, he should be
compelled % remain at his post even

IN INDIAN PICTURE GALLERY.
Quaint Aboriginal Designs Carved on the
Walls of "A Colorado Canon.

In Routt county. Colorado in
the most inaccessible part Of
the State, near the postoiiice OF Hadyn,
are pictured cliffs that rival the famous
Pictured Rocks" of Lake Superior.
These cliffs are In a secluded canon.
down which n beautiful stream dashes in
ripping, foaming cascades. Great pine
and fir trees arise from the dark, rocky
lodges and fill the air with their balsamic
odOrs.
Some distance up from the mouth OF
the canon the gorge opens into a pretty
park. enclosed by almost perpendicular
cliffs of soft gypsum rock and red sand
stone, worn and carved into many fan
tastic shapes In one portion Of the park
the upper half of the cliffs jut out and
shelter the walls below from the action
OF the sun and winds the moisture and
frost Here are found the pictured rocks,
evidently the work Of Indians. The parti-
colored rock seems to have appealed TO
the art instincts Of the savages. for they
have utilized the natural shades and col
ored streaks in the rocky walls TO de-
lineate in col0rs many OF their rude
sketches.
The pictures are suggestive of Indian
life. There are well-Outlined drawings Of
tepees, with the totems on their sides.
There are pictures of Indians racing on
horseback. which show an inkling Of
line drawing and some faint idea Of per-
spective. All sorts of totem designs APP
pear, shields and sun gods. and animals
and bears. Some Of the designs are be-
yond the comprehension OF civilized man.
Away up on the cliff, at a height to cause
wonder as to the method employed TO
reach the point. are seen these rudely
craven sculpturings in the colored walls.
The highest drawings are badly defaced
and many OF them are almost obliterated.
while those lower down are quite well
preserved.
This Indian picture gallery must have
been the slow work OF years of patient
toll Probably many artists have assist
ed in the work, and ii may be that the
traditions OF tribe OF redskins have
thus been outlined during many genera
tons Early white settlers often visited
these cliffs, for nothing OF the kind was
ever known so far north, and in no other

The Guns Of Gettysburg.

On the morning Of the 81 of July 10000
men on the field OF Gettysburg knew that
Lee would attack that day. BY 10 o'clock
I'm the forenoon every one knew where the
blow would fall. The topography Of the
field the bloody struggles on the wings,
the movements Of troops and batteries
tn ere were a dozen signs 10 indicate what
was coming.
From daylight to o'clock there was a
sp,tter Of musketry along the front as the
sharpshoOters and skirmishers fired at
long range. From To 10 the cavalry on
the wings had the fight all TO themselves.
From 10 TO II a gun here and there shelled
the Confederate skin mishers out OF the
di.ches in which they were hiding, but
there seemed to be no fighting anywhere.
From II u u Lee was massing I'D field
pieces in front of Longstreet and Hill
to open on Hancock. Meade posted 100
guns 10 reply, but to fire slowly.
At loon a few couriers were riding furi-
ously in different directions, but not
gun was being fred. The men in line ate
from their haversacks. and the artillery
horses NH led at the grass as they were
unchecked by their drivers. Scores OF
men had pocket telescopes. These were
passed from hand TO hand, and every
gun on the Confederate side was located.
They are going 10 batter us with shot
and shell and then charge. Lie close 10
the ground The shot will fail short or
go over us"
SO came the word along the lines. Ii
vas a wise precaution. But for the eau
ton no one could tell what would have
happened From half past II TO l o'clock
seemed an age. AT | O'Clock sharp the
boom OF a single gun echoed over the
battlefield. and shell came screaming
over our heads and exploded 200 feet in
rear. That was the signal. Before one
could have counted twenty there was a
roar which can be compared TO nothing
one has ever heard. In two minutes the
earth was trembling. The stones in the
wall In front OF us gritted together. Mud
had been used as plaster, and pieces Of
1t fell out with thinking. one would have
said that nothing could add to that awful
roar, but the Federal guns opened in re-
ply, and then men lying down gasped

Thousands of men closed their eyes and
clinched their teeth. Officers who had

and penetrated by the missiles from the
Confederate guns. They are throwing
