TEN THOUSAND SOCIALISTS.
Tho Police Break Up q Procession In
Vienna,

VIENNA
Vienna, Oct. 1S.-Ten thousand So
cialists met here to-day at the Soften
saal, in the Land Strasse section of the
city. The place was not large enough
to hold the great crowd and hundreds
were turned away. DR.. Adler made n
speech in favor of universal suffrage.
At the close of the meeting those
present formed in procession and
marched to the Stadt Park ring, ac-
companied by hundreds of mounted
and foot police. AS the dense thrOng
was traversing the StubenstOr bridge
singing and shouting, the police made
a desperate effort to disperse the crowd
but failed, and the procession continued
the march until the Ring strasse, in the
inner city, was reached. Here a
squadron of thirty mounted police
charged the crowd with swords. As
the police were charging one of the
horses fell. and a number Of other
horses stumbled over him, bringing
their riders to the ground. Horses and
men were struggling on the ground,
and many of the socialists at the head
of the procession were knocked down.
Fifteen Socialists and one policeman
were left lying on the ground, severely
injured. The procession was ultimately
broken up and many of the partici-
pants were arrested. Among those in
custody is DIR. Pernstorfer, n member
of the Reichsrath. He was recognized
by the commissary of the police. who
ordered his immediate release and apo oi-
ogized to him for his arrest. DIR. Perm
storfer protested against the brutality
of the police and declared their inter-
ference had caused the whole disturb
ance. He intends to question the Reich
srath on the subject.

THE CZAR is DYING.
DOCTORS SAY THERE is LITTLE
HOPE.
Members of the Imperial Family Hastily
Summoned to Lividia.-The Czarowitch
to be Appointed Regent.-European
Powers Very Uneasy.

Berlin, Oct. 1S-The Cologne Ga-
zette has n dispatch from st. Peters
burg stating that the car appears to
be dying. All the members Of the i'm
perlal family are en- route to Lividia,
where his majesty is sojourning.
1t is reported that after the recep-
ton of the Princess Alix, the czaro-
witch's betrothed, into the orthodox
church, quiet wedding will follow.
The marriage will take place before
November 20, on which day the great
fasts of the church begin.
The final appointment of the czaro-
witch as regent is hourly expected.
1t Is persistently stated that Po-
biedonesseff resigned the procuratOr-
ship of the holy synod week ago but
that his resignation was not accepted.
The Grand Dukes Sergius and Paul,
brothers of the cZar, started for Livi-
dia today.
An official dispatch indicating the
sudden gravity of the czar's condition
was sent to Darmstadt yesterday and
reply was received to-day saying
that the Grand Duke of Hesse-Darm-
stadt and the Grand Duchess Ser
gius, his sister, had started for St
Petersburg.
The news from Lividia has caused
CONSERVATION in st. Petersburg and
there is a general feeling that the end
may be expected any day. Conse-
quently great anxiety is experienced
regarding the consequences Of the
cars sudden demise.
1t is announced that the cars ply
sicians have given up the idea Of hay
ing him taken to Corfu.
A bulletin issued at o'clock to-
night states that there is no change in
the condition of the czar.
London. Oct. 19.-The anxiety re-
garding the health of the czar was in
creased to-day by the reception of n
dispatch from st. Petersburg announc-
ing that the condition of the car has
perceptibly changed for the worse.
The bulletin states that his majesty
showed symptoms of general debility
and that his weakness of heart was
more pronounced. The bulletin pro
duced n most depressing effect there
and caused agitation on the Bourse.
The Standard in leader this morn
Ing says: We shrink from speculatine
upon the consequences that may ensue
in Asia as well as in Europe when d
life SO valuable as that of the cZai
ends. Seldom has there been In recent
times a moment when the czar might
for good or evil be SO potent n factor
in the fortunes of the East. Without
expecting the collapse of China, the
time must soon come when the prob
lem of the Far East must be takel
into account. When that crisis arrives
1t will be a misfortune to the world II
Russia's policy shall be guided by any
| other hand than his.

Trouble between the California Highbind-
ers Breaks Out Anew.
Los Angeles, Gala, Oct. 1S.-New
fuel has been added to the flames In
the feud between the Highbinder fac
tions in this city and Chinatown, 'is
again in the throes of excitement.
The Hop Sing Tong is now camped
on the trail of the Bing Kung Tong.
Wong Chez entered brothel kept by
Now Bin Wing. Hop Sing man, and
in quarrel with the inmates had his
face slapped by an irate celestial beau
ty who answers to the name Of All
Jeung. Wong and his brother returned
to Now Bin Wings place and forcibly
abducted All Jeung in spite Of her out
cries and the protests of the proprietor.
The Hop Sing clan gathered together
and 1t was resolved that the Bling
Kung Tong should answer for the out
rage. Messages were sent to San Fran
cisco, asking Charley All Him, man
of might, hardly less renowned than
Wong Chee, whose bitter rival he Is,
to come at once and take up the fight
against his old enemy. The members
Of Bing Kung Tong are up in arms.
Meantime Wong Chez is acting on
the principle that possession is nine
points of the law and Is holding on to
All Jeung, though he has announced
that his purpose is to sell her forthwith.
A few years ago Wong started for
San Francisco with a woman who he
claimed was his wife, but who 1t was
afterwards reported he was taking
there for sale. The woman by some
means managed to telegraph to Carley
All Him and when the train arrived
Mt Bakersfield the latter, with party
of followers, entered the train and res
cued the captive.

Strauss Won't Run for Mayor.

New York, Oct. 19.-At late hour
last night an intimate friend of Nom
inee Nathan Strauss, said:
'Mr. Strauss has practically decided
to withdraw from the mayoralty race.
Such Tammany leaders as Mayor GIL
roy or Mayor Grant, Delaney Nicola,
John NJ. Bowers and others, labored
long and earnestly with Mr.. Strauss,
bringing all sorts of argument to bear,
but the nominee was obdurate and In
sisted upon withdrawing"
The withdrawal of Strauss will once
more put Tammany slate all awry. Tho
official announcement of Mr.. Strauss
withdrawal, it is thought, will be made
tomorrow. 1t is the opinion Of the
rank and file of Tammany hall that e6.
Mayor Grants position is analogous
to that Of Senator Hill and that he
would be compelled to accept the nom.

On Account of Robbers.

st. Louis, Oct 19.-Agents of the Pa.
cific Express company In the Indian
territory have been instructed by L.
A. Fuller, the general superintendent.
not to receive money to forward and to
discontinue the sale of money orders.
This action is the result Of the fire..
quent depredations made by bandits
without interference on the part of the
authorities in the Indian territory, the
United States government and the To-
cal government to the Indian nation.
The result is that although only a
short time has elapsed since the closing
of the express offices the wheels of
commerce have already been cloggcd
by the absence Of money, and COM
plants are beginning to be heard.

livered from Them.
New York, Oct. 2O-The New York
k;tnte Sabbath association held It's
third annual meeting last night IN
Brooklyn. Among the other things
which the association is trying to
bring about is the abolition Of all Sun
day traffic, Sunday excursions and
Sunday newspapers. The address on
the Sunday newspapers was delivered
by DIR. Theodore T. Cuyler, who an
nounced himself true friend to the
daily press which he held responsible
for much of the good accomplished in
the world, and thought that all Chris
tians should unite in demanding the
suppression of the Sunday paper.
"Why," asked he, SHOULD the
newspaper man be allowed to carry
on their business. when all other
trades are required to suspend trade
on Sunday? There Is no need Of the
Sunday press. We got along very we'll
without 1t in the olden days and we
could again. While there is no rea-
son we should have the Sunday pa
pers there are many reasons why we
should be delivered from them, for the
cleanest papers issue sporting and
other topics which are subjects for
consideration on the Sabbath. Too
many clergymen have to dig out their
parishoners from under the avalanche
of blanket sheets which every Sabbath
are launched upon the public.

WAR IN NEW YORK.
Dem rattle Factions Will Not Concede n
Single Point.

Dem ratio Factions Will Not Concede n
Single Point.
New York, Oct. 1S.-No progress has
yet been made toward harmonizing the
Democratic factions in the congression-
al districts of this city, which were
SO urgently recommended by the chair
man of the congressional campaign
committee, Senator Faulkner of West
Virginia, in the address he issued on
Tuesday. In eight of the nine districts
comprised exclusively within the city
Of New York, there are opposition Dem
ocratic candidates. Tammany was
first in the field within its nominations
and for one reason or another turned
down" about half of the delegation as
1t exists in the Fifty-third congress.
John Dewitt Warner was elbowed OUT
Of the nomination in the thirteenth dis,
trict by the transfer thither of Amos
J. Cummings from the eleventh. Il. J.
Dunphy, who has contumaciousiy
defied Tammany, was retired. The re-
doubtable Timothy J. Campbell was
deemed to have had his full share Of
honor and dignity, and the nomination
in his district was given to Henry G.
Miner, the theatrical manager. Bourke
Cochran was shelved, as 1t Is alleged
by the express direction of Mr.. Crocker,
to make place for George B. Mcclellan,
dermen and son of the general of the
same name, and some other changes in
the delegation were made.
Dunphy and Campbell have had their
names placed upon the state Demo.
cratic ticket. Every member of the
delegation, with one exception, who
voted for the Wilson bill, was passed
over by Tammany.
Ex-Mayor Grace, who represents the
state Democracy, has demanded au
equal division of the nominations be.
tween his organization and Tammany
and specifically the restoration Of
Cochran and Warner, but up to the
present has obtained no assurance that
his claim for the state Democracy will
be allowed. There is scarcely one of
the city districts, all of which are now
represented by Democrats, which will
be safe for either Tammany or ths
state Democratic candidate should
both remain in the contest. Chairman
Faulkner is reported to have said in
Washington, since his return from New
York, that he had reason to hope for
an arrangement upon satisfactory
basis, but upon what this hope is found
ed he has not intimated. The appear
ance of Senator Hills name at the
head Of both the Tammany and the
state Democratic tickets may also i'm
plicate matters. Nathan Strauss, Tam
many or regular nominee for mayor
claims that he should have exclusive
benefit of whatever prestige there MAJ
be upon the regular state ticket. Sen.
ator Hill has declined to refuse the use
of his name to the state Democracy
which is supporting Strong, a Repubii
can, for mayor, and Strauss and lis
friends are, in consequence, much dis,
satisfied toward the senator
An evening paper says that Mr.
Strauss has sent his private secretary
to Mr.. Hill with the ultimatum that
the senator must discountenance TIE
state DemOcracy's ticket by refusing to
allow his name to appear upon it with
that of Mr.. Strong, Citizens ana Re-
publican nominee for mayor, or he
(Strauss) would withdraw from the
regular Tammany ticket.

THE BRYAN DEMOCRATS WIN.
Tho Nebraska Supreme Court Decides In
Thelr Favor.

Omaha, Neb., Oct. 1s.-A special %
the Bee from Lincoln, Neb., says: The
last hope of the administration Demo-
Gratis to secure recognition for the can
didates nominated by the state con-
vention which bolted the regular con-
vention was destroyed tonight by the
Supreme court deciding that the fusion
or Bryan ticket shall be designated as
Democratic on the official ballot. The
question came up on petition as to the
power of the secretary of state with
respect to certificates Of nomination
under the provisions of the ballot law.
The court was also asked to pass on
the question, does the law authorize
the printing more than once on the Off.
cial ballot Of the names of candidates
nominated by different parties or by pc
tition.
Answering to the first question the
court said that the power of the sec
retary, when objection is made to any
certificate filed with him, to determine
from extrinsic evidence whether or
not such certificate is fraudulent, and
whether the nomination therein certi-
fed was made by a convention or as
semblage of voters, in good faith, claim
ing to represent n party which cast
the requisite number of votes at the
last election, is plainly implied from
the state law.
Answering the second question, the
court declared that the ballot law
evidenctly contemplates that the name
Of each candidate shall appear but once
on the official ballot, followed by such
political designations as correspond
with the nomination papers on file with
the officer charged with the duty OF
printing and distributing them. 1t fol-
lows that thpra iS no authority for the
printing of names thereon more than
once.
The decision as to the last question Is
a victory for the alleged boilers, since
1t was intended to have the names Of
the fusion candidates printed twice on
the ballot, as Populists and Demo-
Gratis.

ATTACKED BY APAcHEs.
An Arizona Man Shot and Probably Fatal
ly Wounded.

Tucson, Ariz., Oct 2O.-A special to
the Star from San Simon says: The
report of the first act Of violence COM
mitted by Indians resulting from the
removal of the troops from Fort
Bowie. was brought here by a courier
early this morning. Phil Hefter, of
the San Simon Cattle company, while
on his way to a roundup on Deer
Creek in Stems Pike mountains, some
65 miles from here, was attacked by a
band of six Of seven Apaches, who
were lying in ambush behind a rock.
A number of shots were fired at him,
one passing through his left lung and
breaking his shoulder blade into frag-
ments. His pack animal, which he
was driving before him.- was killed.
The attack was presumably made to
get his firearms, ammunition and con-
tents of the pack saddle. Everything
tends to show it to be the work Of
"Kid's' band. Hefter returned the
fire and barely reached the nearest
ranch, some five miles away, where he
lies probably in a dying condition.

Buenos Ayres, Oct. 1S.-A cores

word that the warship Aquidaban, Wa

Rio Grande Do Norte, and Federal
troops have been sent to aid the gov
ernor.
Senior Catunda opposes any increase
of the army. The limit was placed at
1900 in 1890, and now it is proposed
to raise the number to 10000 with s.
900 in addition for the navy.
Numerous kilograms have reached
the senate from the state of Panon pro-
testing against military interference
with the election. Senor OZOrO has been
appointed Brazil's minister to Argen-
tine, but Minister Mintern will be in
charge of the legation until he is ready
to take his seat in congress next Janu-
ary. Senor Lisnoa has been promoted
to be minister to Uruguay, while Senor
Gavalicand goes from Paraguay to

to Pioneer Press from Port TOWNSEND.

Captain Ward Of the Amelia was told
by Samuel Parker that similar assur.
ances had been received from Admiral
Walker of the Philadelphia.
This news has been generally circu-
lated through the islands and caused n
feeling that hostilities between the
Royalists and Provisionalists might be
resumed at any time.
