EIGHT-PAGE EDITION

kane men are afraid TO diverge him from the
center line, as they fear that his desertion
of the Populists might do the Turner
cause more harm than good.
pleasant diversion from political as
perities was found tonight in social hop
IN the parlors of the Olympia, gotten
up by ladies stopping at the hotel.
An lntermisslon was devoted to n carpet
entertainment by VIII l.. Visscher, the
poet. who by his recitations and story
telling amused large crowd for nearly
an hour.
Col. Patrick Henry Winston is the lat
est arrival on the scene. He came here
this evening, and his mission is simply 10
amuse his friends and be amused.
one OF the noteworthy featurnes of the
Turner campaign is the procession
OF Seattle. Tacoma and Spokane
gamblers, boosters and cappers who
make frequent incursions to the
cribs where III. W. Fairweather and
has assistants dispense hospitalities.
They not only make themselves very
prominent about the lobbies, but they
spy generally. They are also assigned
to watch all Turner men who even
show disposition to be sociable with any
one not favorable TO the Spokane candi-
date. Thev are cheap detectives. for they
are glad to accept drinks and cigars. with
generous admixture of fattery, from the
scuttler, IN payment for services.

SOCIALIST RIOT IN AMSTERDAM
The Sight Of Bread Drives the Fam
ished Workingmen to Madness.

AMSTERDAM, Jan. 20-The unemployed
workingmen of this city held a procession
today. The socialists had much if not all
to do with the procession, and when it
started many began to bawl socialistic
songs. The procession as il progressed
grew noiser ana more demonstrative as
the police did not interfere. Finally the
mob stopped in front of a bakery and at
tempted to take the place by storm. A
number of police quickly appeared on the
scene and prevented the looting of the
shop. The police allowed two men TO en-
ter the bakery TO ask for bread from the
proprietors. and they met with prompt
and decided refusal. Finally the mob be-
came so dsorderly that body of 200 po-
lice attempted to disperse them. They re-
sisted, and desperate melee ensued, in
which several gendarmes were quite badly
injured.
The police with drawn swords repeatedly
charged the crowd and inflicted many
sword cuts on the rioters The procession
finally broke up, but even then isolated
patches of rioters continued fighting for
hours. The leaders were captured. The
affair caused much excitement in the city,
and further trouble Is feared.
Until IL o'clock tonight the police were
busy i'll al parts Of the city charging with
drawn swords upou disorderly crowds
Throughout the city revolutionary hand
bills were scattered broadcast and pasted
on walls and trees. In these bills the
leaders exhort those who can find no work
to 90 from house to house in the most
aristocratic parts OF the city and demand
food and clothing. Ii refused the work
men should force their way in and help
themselves. More trouble is looked for

pay { f this de- : -relsase the uni
versity buildings and grounds ON
incumn frances relieve the insti-
tuition rom the burden OF interest,
and open the way for enlargement
and Or endowment. Nothing but
such an ;mper.ous necessity would
have called me from my pas
toral work When We com.
menced this work the debt tai
mounte9 up 10 $50 900 and
threatened the We y life Of the insti
tuition. The conditions of our can
Sais were yert trying. Necessity
forced the issue in a period OF great
financial distress. Indeed, SO great
vas the strngency that it became
the STAPLE of political discussion,
and threatened some of our most
prosperous Texas citizens with ruin.
Yet in such a time We IA sed from
Texas fifty thousand dollars cash,
SO, 900 oQi, We also secured
toward the payment of this deb.
fifteen thousand dollars, SD, 00O,
from the National Baptist Educa-
tional society, on the condition that

In letter to US of the . n inst.
they repeat their readiness to com
ply with their promise, sLd express
me nope tina. we will ba ready to
draw on them for this amount.
Now, it is bat short time till
May lat. Yet, in that time We
must comply with the onditions or
forfeit our claim to this large and
much needed sum OF money To
meet these conditions. fifteen thou.
sand dolla-s must be raised in
Waco in twenty days.
The board OF trustees have ap.
pointed Rev. Gao. ". Truett and
myself to raise it. We commenced
our work by proposing 10 give one
