FIRE FREELY.
CLEVELAND MOB USES PISTOLS
PERMISCUOUSIY.
Unemployed Men Parade and Indulge
in Few Riots No Arrests
Made

Cleveland, May 1.-Seven thousand
unemployed men paraded the streets
today after listening TO speeches In
Monumental square. in the line were
many unruly spirits While on the
Central yiaduCt mOtorman refused to
stop the train while the procession
passed and the mob attacked and
wrecked the car
Later nearly leo shots were fired
over another car which was compelled
TO stop Several persons were knocked
down and Others We're injured by mis-
siles thrown by the mob.
ON Pearl street another riotous scene
occurred. \ street ear was totally
wrecked aud the motorman assaulted
and perhaps fatally injured. A police.
man who was on board drew his re
yolyer but before it could be used the
mob closed in ON him and he received
very rough handling,
Pistols were fired IN every direction.
Many plate glass windows were
smashed and II panic ensued In the
crowded thoroughfare No one was
Killed outright The police who were
early in the day massed In their vari-
GUS stations were called out.
The crowd numbered from 1000 to
5000 and the police seemed powerless
70 cope with IL and offered little or
no resistance. A teamster was struck
in the face with heavy irony bolt and
badly injured because he could not get
his team out of the way.
During all the disturbances not an
arrest was made, the police evidently
not desiring to court trouble with a
mob in such an ugly temper.
When the procession returned to the
square several speeches were made
advising the men to 20 home, but an
anarchist got them started on another
procession. II was headed out through
the manufacturing district in the
eastern part of the city and It was
feared more violence would be com
mitted but nothing more serious than
the breaking of few windows in
factory occurred

LAPHAM ACCEPTS.

THE Hon. OSCAR LAPHAM has accepted
the Democratic nomination for Member
of Congress from the First District.
He has hestated because he thought
the party entirely dead-hesitated with
a feather at the nostrils of the supposed
corpse.
If the feather huttered, he would
accept. Ii it gave no sign indicating
the presence Of breath ne would decline.
The feather futtered; family. but yet
real flutter.
There came encouraging news from
Newport" and the members of the Dem
ocratic city committee assured Mr.. LAP
HAM that they 'were going TO take eff
their coats and work."
Mr.. LAPHAM estimates that "there
will be about half respectable vote"
and that though the Democrats "don't
expect to carry the election" they do
"hope to preserve the integrity of the
party"
The News thinks the Democrats of
the First District have abundant cause
to feel themselves Mr.. LAPHAMs
debtors. His consentin5 TO stand AS
their candidate this year reveals height
and depth of magnauimity not to be
found everywhere.
The least that can be done for him
now is TO let him have his way about
the postoffice, anyway. Colonel HAY
WARD ought to be at once notified TO
hang his harp on a willow tree and
devote himself to dough. Colonel
BULLOCK should be encouraged to look
into the science of running the Provi-
dence letter carriers without getting
into the clutches OF inspectors.
Seriously Mr.. LApHAM has manifested
degree of fidelity to his party that
stamps him as above the average poll
tician. He IL cheerfully going about a
task that viii yield him no reward
whatever, but which will add chapter
of defeat to record that has been
honorable. clean and conscientious, sc-
cording to his political faith.
IL is no slight matter to ask man TO
do this. A record is TO be made that
will not explain itself IN the future, and
Mr.. LApHAM does not deserve it.

feel sure Of this, for we are convinced
that freedom of trade II good for all
the world, and we are not all alarmed by
Mr.. Wilson's highly -colored picture OF
the future supremacy Of the United states
In Industrial productio and In external
conmerce. But we confess that
the cause of tariff reform In the
United States seems TO us 90 far from
being certain to go forward by it, own
impstus, ~ to stand In need OF all the
efforts OF those who believe in 1t, and per-
Laps even more, Of clearer views on their
part OF what they mean. The greater
part of Mr.. Wilson's speech was logical
and telling argument In favor
of free trade pure and simple,
and an exposure of the mischiefs OF
protection in any shape or form. II
10 not easy to apply his reasoning to the
principle of "tarin for revenue only" so
limited In practice o. to secure the freedom
from duty of raw materials and to pro-
tect favored industries against foreign
composition. The most liberal proposals.
yet put forward by responsible politicians
In the United States have hardly got
beyond this point. President Cleveland
himself has never frankly pronounced In
favor OF the principle OF free trade.
Until the Democratic doctrine OF q tarin
for revenue only receives, In practice
as well a. In profession, IL proper inter-
pretation. until 1t 10 held to prohibit
both the raising of revenue not required
for tho ordinary service of tho Govern
ment and the distribution of the burden
with the object of giving an advantage to
any interest, the public mind in the
United States will remain confused and
undecided upon the question.
The disciplined and combined forces OF
the protected branches of trade will,
under those conditions, be able for long
time to secure their own objects, Whatever
may be the vicissitudes of parties. We
do not expect to see any decisive
overthrow of protection until 1t 10
confronted by q real free trade policy,
which at the present time seems to have
very few avowed nd hsrents In the United
States, among those, at all events, who
are engaged in politics and who directly
represent the electors.

or 10 prevent stampede or votes away
from him. He meant to sell out
STRAUs, hut that astute gentleman re-
fused to mount the auction block. He
is now trying to arrange a deal with
HUoH J. GRANT that will allow the re-
moval of portion of the skin of that
Tammanyite.
His greatest act of renunciation is the
attempt to crawl out Of the MAYNARD
matter by alleging that he wrote to
MAYNARD to ask that that judge with
draw from the attempt to get nominated
year ago; but despite his advice to the
contrary, MAYNARD had himself NOM
mated. Ii is also claimed now that
MURPHY and SHEEHAN were also op-
posed to the nomination of MAYNARD.
This would have put Tammany and
the State Democratic machine against
MAYNARD. There is not voter in New
York foolish enough TO believe that any
body could be nominated under such
circumstances by a New York Demo
cratic convention.
Senator HILL worked heartily for May
NARD, after lie was nominated, and
sharply rated some of his lieutenants
who manifested lack of enth usiasm. IL
was understood at the time that 1T was
Hills influence that forced MAYNARD
OH the convention. 1t is certain that
he did his best to force MAYNARD on
the people.
Whichever way the matter turns now
1t reveals HILL as political shyster OF
the meaner sort. II lie believed NAY
NARD to be an unfit candidate. he GER
tainly behaved in the most dishonest
manner IN attempting TO have
him elected. If he did what he
was credited with, j. e.: forced May
NARD upon the convention, he is
now exhibiting himself as an unscrupu-
lous faisifier, a betrayer of a political
associate and politician without the
smallest regard for the interests of the
people, or that slight form of honor that
is supposed to hold sway among mem
bers of the same political party.
A year ago, when HILL was making
his magnificent record in the Senate,
when it seemed that he was the only
member OF the dominant party who had
the courage and the patriotism to stand
mp boldly for the rights of the people,
who were about to be despoiled by the
willing agents of foreign manufacturers
and domestic trusts, it did not
seem possible that the brilliant
and brave champion would be
found now endeavoring to falsify
his own record for the fancied advantage
of checking the stampede of voters away
from his party. 1t did not seem that,
though the heavens fell, chat firm rock
could be flung from its base. 1t did not
seem that that wonderful power of for
cible eloquence would be employed to
persuade voters that only a few months
ago he had enacted before them the role
of liar and perjurer. and false friend and
adviser.
Yet to such straits doth politics bring
the brilliant and the gifted, the strong
and the prevailing, the great, the good.
the eloquent; the men born to lead and
capable OF immeasurable good.
