CONFLICTING EXPLANATIONS.

Some Statements About That werk
Thss Do Not Dcvetaii.
The publication in yesterdays HERALD
OF the facts regarding the street wor k
now being done on Temple street occa-
stoned considerable comment around the
city hall. The impression which seemed
to prevail to come extent that the
HERALD's account implicated Counoil-
man Innes in any wrong doing Is entire
ly erroneous. Indeed, it was not in
tended to assert that there was anything
beyond negligence in the matter, but it
was pointed out how the thing might
bring q whole lot of trouble and the inn
preston it was apt to create in the
minds of taxpayers.
Street Superintendent Watson's ex-
plantations yesterday wers that new men
had gone to work ont there and had
dumped few loads OF dirt on the street
where they should not.
The foreman Of the Tenn mpls-street road
stated positively that the city had not
put any gravel on the street where the
company should do the work. The fact
still remains, however, that all the
teams and men working ON the job were
working in together, hauling gravel from
the same place and placing it wherever
Deputy Riggs and the boss OF the job
ordersd it. and it would take Philadsl-
phia lawyer to figure ont which part of
the work the city was doing and which
the cable company was doing.

CASEY'S BLACK CHARGER
A ROMANTIC STORY THAT WAS
NOT TRUE.
Casey Didn't DIE Upon the Battle Field
and the Story of His Bride
Was Nothing but
Fake.

A press dispatch was printed In many
papers over the country few days ago
regarding handsome black horse which
was being sent from Fort Keogh, Nom
tsna, to Miss Hunt, the daughter of
Colonel Hunt" OF Los Angeles.
There was q very romantic and pa
thetio tale connected with the horse. 1t
was all about Captain Casey, Indians,
bullets, death on the battlefield. rider
less plunging charger, lovely young
lady waiting to marry Captain Casey
after the Indians were all killed of, and
the like Of that.
When the horse got % far ss San
Francisco and they took him off the boat
to let him get the kinks out of his legs
and stretch himself, the San Francisco
papers sprung this romantic tale on the
defensslsss public. Next day it Was
telearaphed broadcast.
The "black charger" arrived at San
Pedro yesterday on the Coos Bay and
will be brought to this city today. Those
who look for Miss Hunt mounted proud
ly on his back, Waiting down Spring
street, the focus Of ali eyes, will be dis
appointed. First. because there is no
such young lady as Miss Hunt and, sec
ondly, because the horse belongs to Col
onel Swaine. who has recently pur-
chased q ranch at Los Nietos and who
will take the horse down there.
Colonel Swaine knew Captain Casey
and liked his horse, go after Casey was
shot in the back by q lone Indian on
lonely trail, he bought. the horse and is
now having IL shipped down here. For
this reason the following sample para
graph taken from the article published
in the Call will have to be diluted q
little in order to make it 60 down
miss Hunt felt deeply the affliction
that was suddenly forced upon her by
the murderous Sioux. She was loyal to
her dead lover, never giving thought to
any suitor that pressed her for her
heart and hand. She is pretty, accom-
plished and much admired in both civil
anu military social circles. bat it has
always been said that she never seemed
to look favorsbly upon any particular
member of the male sex since tho run

BROUGHT FIRST BLOOD.

Fitzgerald Murphy Cots the Best of n
Street Fighu
Fitzgerald Murphy, the well-known
writer and playwright, had the undeni-
able pleasure of striking Anton Stoetzer
and two other men with cane, in front
OF the Hollenbsok hoJel, at $50 O'Clock
last evening, The row created small
sensation.
According to Mr.. Murphy's statement
OF the affair. Stoetzer has been dogging
him on account OF family affairs in W hich
Stoetzer should have no interest. Stoet-
zer is designer who has an office in the
Stowell block.
Mr.. Murphy was standing in front Of
the Hollenbeck when Stoetzer and three
friends passed along. The designer
made sighting remark to MIR. Muir
ply and otherwise showed fight. When
Murphy told him he didn't want trouble,
Stoetzsr struck him in the face; he was
besides seized from behind by Stoetzer's
friends. Murphy quickly brought his
cane into play, cutting q deep gaeh in
Stoetzer's forehead and raising bumps
on the heads OF the other fellows. Muir
ply says he will swear out complaint
| against Stoetzsr today.

THE AMERICAN NEGRO.

Some good eastern people arc engaged
in reviving the old Liberisn COLOMBIA tion
scheme under new name, with q view
of deporting to Africa so large q portion
OF the colored population in the south
as to render impossible the war of races
which now seems to be impending in
that section. The natural increase in
the negroes since the emancipation is
the prime root of all this evil.
The negro's brutal nature and his
readiness to resort to violence are at the
bottom of the trouble. So long as the
negro was slave, such a thing as in
decent assault upon defenseless women
was unknown. Just as soon as the
emancipation proclamation had set him
free, the first thing he thought of was
the subjection OF q white woman to q
fate worse than death. This, of course,
was followed by lynchihg, but that does
not seem to stop this brutal crime. The
only penalty that can stop it is emasou.
lation, law for which should be on
the statute books OF every southern
state. whether the offender be black or
white.
1t is with view OF averting the war
OF races that this wholesale lynching
must precipitate, that some good and
philanthropio people in the bleak north
have revived the Liberian colonization
scheme of forty odd years ago. and are
now seeking to make it popular in the
mi ho 80 >ak ho
negroes there. but very hard thing to
keep them there. The modern American
negro, born on q sugar or cotton planta-
ton, is q widely different being from the
African savage who landed on Barataria
or Tybee island q hundred years ago. He
has become a creature of the American
climate and soil, and the climate of his
ancestors has already become Q foreign
one to him.
The Libsrian colonists sent out to that
country prior to the civil war got 90 sick
OF their liberty that they would go down
on board the ships that touched at
Loando and San Felipe and beg to be
taken back to America, even if they had
to be sold back into slavery. They real
lied that "ole massa" wasn't such bad
fellow, after all and were glad to get
back to ''de ole plantation" at any Sac
rifice..
The truth is that the negro IL lacking
in selfreliance and decision of character.
You will find exceptions. of course, but
those exceptions only serve to prove the
rule. With the fierce climate of Africa
and the utterly lonely surroundings that
characterize every new colony, the negro
will become impatient in the land of his
fathers and sigh for q return to Amer.
ica. We admire the foresight that has
led up to this scheme but We have our

Dy UnOrgantZeO WOrkmen.
 CLEVELAND, O., May l.-Riotous demonstrations have been the order of the day, and several persons have been injured, while mum Der have had very narrow escapes from death.
 A meeting attended by between 10,- 900 and 15, OoO men was held in the pub lie square in the forenoon.
 The first indication of trouble was when an anarchist named Moore got upon the stand and attempted to make an incendiary speech. He was seized by two men and dragged from the plat form. A club with an iron nut on it was found in his pocket. A young man rushed up to the stand and shouted that he wanted work. and if he could not get it he would steal.
 At this point citizen made his way to the front and, addressing the lead CTS. said: For Gods sake adjourn this meeting. There is sure to be trouble unless you do so."
 Some 5000 men marched over to the west side. On the viaduct motor man incurred the displeasure of the crowd and they attacked the car with clubs, almost completely wrecking it.
 At the West Side markethouse the mob became angry at the movement of a car Revolvers were drawn and shots filled the air. There was panic on the tra in and men and women tumbled off the car or crawled under the seats.
 Two of the bullets went through the window of Marks variety store into a crowd of shoppers. One of the bull lets went through the hair of Miss Minnie Bennis, clerk, and another passed through the sleeve of Miss Emma Buschs dress.
 On Superior street John Strie binger, driver for William Edwards X Co.,, who failed to stop his wagon on demand, was struck by bolt on the jaw and seriously injured.
 Another section of the mob visited the works of the H. P. Nail Co When the workmen refused to come out, bricks, stones and clubs were thrown through the windows. The men acted like wild men, and no attempt was made to check them in their work. When they were satisfied they could accomplish nothing they withdrew. The crowds were almost entirely made up of idle foreigners and unorganized workmen, as all the labor unions had taken ac- tion against participating in any dem- onstration on May day.

HE STRIKE IS OFF,

Anahks 10 the Twin Cities Committee of
 business Men-The Result a Victory for
 the ne-Tenths of the Points Of
 Dinerence Conceded by the Great
 northern Railroad Co.-The Result Re-
 ceived with Rejoicing.
 MINNEAPoIIs.. Minn.. May o.-The strike on the Great Northern road which involved its 5000 employees on It's 3,7O0 miles of line, and which has suspended traffic, both freight and passenger, for two weeks, is over.
 This was accomplished by adjudica- ton of the claims of the employees and the road rather than by arbitra- tion, the court being joint committee of the representatives of leading busi- ness organizations
 This committee was organized at conference of St. Paul and Minneapo- lis business men held at the Commer- cial club in this city last Sunday night. It consisted of c. A. Pillsbury, B. F. Nelson. J. T. Wyman, F. G. Winston and F. R. Heacock. of Minneapolis: Dan II. Moon. P. H. Kelly, Geo. B. Finch, c. w. Hackett, Richard Gordon and Charming Seabury, of St Paul.
 President Hill of the Great Northern at once expressed his willingness to leave the settlement of the strike in the hands of these men. The strikers at first demurred, but finally agreed that they would meet Mir. Hill before the committee. Each side was to state its position, and vote of the joint committee was to settle it. The con- ference began shortly after o'clock yesterday in the rooms of the St. Paul Jobbers' association.
 President Debs, Vice President How ard, of the American Railway union, and l.. w. Rogers. editor of the official organ of the American Railway union, were present on behalf of the strikers. The result of the conference, which lasted until late in the evening, is that the strikers gain nine-tenths of the points made. President Hill conceded without argument the restora- tion of the wages of the en- glneers. firemen, conductors, brake men, boiler-makers, trackmen, sec tion men and blacksmiths The re- duction in the cases of these men was 10 per cent The committee took up OhiC SdSCS Ol Itic Cdr luSpcClOTS, car Tc- pairers, oilers, operators, etc. In these cases the wages of the men were also practically restored, there being only minor points of difference on which there could be no serious disagree ment.
 The meeting progressed with the best of feeling throughout. Eugene V. Debs did most of the talking for the strikers, President Hill replying for the road At the close there was great rejoicing, and the following telegram was sent out along the line as official notice that the strike was off:
 To the strikers of the Great Northern: set clement has been reached. Report for duty at once.
 [Signed.1 DEBs AND HOWARD.
 Messrs. Rogers and Howard will ac- company the strikers committee over the line to personally notify the em- plOyes and instill them with good feel ing towards the road.
