a breakfast to the higher officials who
are taking part in the military maneu-
vers at Majours, and made a speech to

the leaders of the soldiers of France.
wished to give proof to the valiant
general who directs the maneuvers,
and to all those who seconded him, of
my deep sympathy with the youth of
France found here alike for peace, or
war. Love of our country; respect for

citizen. To you the republic entrusts
it's honor. She confides her future and
her flag to those whos like you. cherish
all that makes hearts generous and
wills strong and prepares soldiers for
defense and citizens for liberty"

OWENS Plurality.

Lexington, KY, Sept. 1S.-The official
count of the various county committees
shows a plurality for Owens of 269 over
Breckenridge.
There is no doubt the committee will
refuse to throw the nomination to
Breckenridge, as such action would, in
the opinion of the conservative Demo-
Gratis. completely disrupt the Demo-
cratic party in this district. A num-
Der of bets against owens were paid

at Fort Sheridan closed the prelimin-
aries and tomorrow and Thursday will

Jorgensen rifle In the last skirmish

Private Coates, Fifteenth Infantry. He
was not aware of the fact that he was
to make the run with the new weapon,

NO TROUBLE FROM INDIANS.
Bombthrowers of Chicago Are More
to Be Feared Than the Redskins
of the West.

Washington, Sept. 1S.-General Arm
strong, assistant commissioner Of In
dian affairs, speaking of the changes
of u. S. troops and the abandonment
of several military posts in the west,
says it will have no effect whatever
upon the Indians.
There is more danger" he said,
'from anarchists in Chicago than from
all the Indians in the west. Indian
wars are thing of the past. With the
railroad facilities, troops can be trans
ported from the large posts more
quickly than they can march from any
of the little posts which have been
abandoned"

WILL DISREGARD 1T.
Jones VIII Pay No Attention to the
Demand For His Resignation.

Demand For His Resignation.
San Francisco, Sept. sc. c. Powning,
of Reno, New, is in the city and in an
interview tonight stated that SENATOR
John P. Jones has indicated his future
course to his friends. He says that Jones
has not joined the Popultst party. but has
gone over to the silver party of Nevada.
In the meantime, Jones will disregard the
demand of the Republican state commit
tee that he resign at once, because that
would give Governor Colcord an oppor-
tunity to appoint a Republican as Jones
successor. For that reason he will wait
Until the Nevada legislature meets and
then resign, offering himself as candi-
date to serve out his own unexpired term.
Powning predicts the success OF the entire
silver party ticket, and says that Jones
reelection will be endorsed by his course:
Jones term will expire in two years, and
there will probably be no serious oppose
ton to his candidacy. Nevada silverites
believe that the resolution of the Nevada
Republican state committee was inspired
by Republican politicians at Washington,
and Nevadans resent this attempt at die
tatiOn.

JACKSON TURNED OFF
James Mcnamara Rewarded for
His Testimony.
= NEW GANG PUT TO WORK.
Superintendent Jackson Keeps Mona
mara Ont OF the Tunnel Until Dis
missed by Engineer W arner.

City Engineer Warner Yesterday carried
out his prearranged plan and removed
Andrew Jackson from superintendent of
the North sewer tunnel. In his place he
appointed James Mcnamara. who is not
even acitizen. but who gave testimony be-
fore Mayor Ronald in the interest of the
board, his main testimony being fatty
contradicted by ex-City Engineer Thorn
son.
Jackson had already displayed will
ingness to submit to reasonable requests
by putting Robert Bridges to work for
which he considered him fitted, but not in
the responsible position previously held
by Morgan. This did not satisfy Warner,
who eadeavored to force jackson to resign,
but he refused. and Warner then insisted
that Mcnamara should be appointed. To
this Jackson would not assent, and War
ner buntiy discharged him.
Jackson insisted that the work on the
tunnel was too important to be entrusted
to any but skilled workmen. and replied
that he could be discharged bu. he would
not consent to anything which would
Jeopardize the efficiency OF the workman
shin.
Warner insisted that McNamara should
Now, then. think il over We will take
care OF the brick work and you can turn

him."

Mr. Jackson's reply.
However. that night at II o'clock Nc
Namara with gang of men went out to
the tunnel and started to workAWhen
Mr.. Jackson arrived at the sewer at
O'Clock he drove the men and Mcnamara
from the ground and declared that Nc
Namara could not enter the tunnel again.
and that if he did it would be- over dead
bodies. Mcnamara returned to town
and in an hoIr returned with Warner.
The dismissal of Superintendent Jackson
followed and Mr.. Jackson Quilted the
spot without another word and left the
work to Mcnamara and his crew.
