Associated Press.

Kansas City, April There was Il
riot this afternoon between A. P. A.
and anita. p. A. politicians. One man
was killed, two mortally wounded and
several seriously wounded by stray bull
let's. The trouble was over swearing in
deputy marshals, who attacked the A.
P. A. workers.
Mike Callahan, well known politi-
clan, Catholic, and supporter of Frank
johnson for mayor, was killed. Jerry
Pate, deputy constable, was shot in
the head and will die. ]. b, Rosnaha
was shot through the kidneys and will
die. Pat Fleming was shot in the shoul-
der. Jerry Fowler was also shot John
MCGOWAN was shot, but not seriously.
Eight arrests have been made.
1t cannot be stated which side is re-
sponsible for the fray, as each charges
the other with being the full cause of
all the trouble. More than 200 shots
were exchanged between the combat
ants in less than that many seconds.
The riot was the elimination of a bit
ter feeling which has been manifested
by action and words ever since the polls
opened in the morning. The two an
tagonistic elements were solidly divided
in their choice of candidates for mayor.
The riot was the climax of a series of
smaller riots that took place at other
places early in the day between the
same opposing religious factions Only
an hour before it was known that John
Cooley, a stonemason, who was OPP
posed to the A. p. A., was shot in the
back and forehead by William Henry
Walker at voting place at the corner
of Fifth and Campbell streets. The A.
p. A. supported Webster Davis, repub-
lican candidate for mayor Harry Ar
thur, one of Prior's followers, gives the
following version. He was standing on
a bridge close to the scene of the riot,
when Jerry Pate, an A p. A. man, and
another man came on the other end Of
the bridge in a buggy with four men

he jumped out Of the buggy with a
gun in his hand, and grabbing hold of
Harry McGovern said:
Here's one Of the men we want. I've
got a warrant for your arrest"
I went up to Pate and said: You
cannot take me-" Jim Todd stepped
out too and said; mo. you can't take
me, either"
I'm deputy constable and you've got
to 60" said Pate, and turning to me
and the men in the buggy, said, Read
that warrant"
Just then Mike Callahan came rum
ming towards us from the northern end
of the bridge. He ran up to Pate and
asked him what right he had to carry
a pistol, and demanded to see his per-
init. Then the two men exchanged an
CRY words, and then Pate aimed at
Callahan and fired. Callahan returned
the shot, and then and the rest Of us
began to shoot. shot Pate.

A novel aud interesting plea has
been entered before the United States
Commissioner at Buffalo on behalf of
IN Indian charged with murder on the
Cattaraugus reservation. His attorney
denied that the United States had any
lawful jurisdiction over the case. The
Indian, he said, belonged to the Five
Nations, a government that was in ex-
istence long before the United States
was heard of, and whose existence was
recognized by the United States. This
point will probably have to go to the
Supreme Court before the case can be
tried.

Mysterious Tides of Fundy.

Statistics regarding the tides in the
Bay of Fundy are so startling as to
seem almost incredible. At Grand
Manan the fall is from twelve to fif-
teen feet, at Lubec and Eastport
twenty feet, at St. John from twenty
four to thirty feet, at Moncton on the
bend of the Petitcodiac, seventy feet,
while the distance between high and
low water mark on the Cobequid River
is twelve miles, the river actually be-
ing twelve miles longer at high than
at low water. Vessels can be run up
SO far on the food in this river and in
the Avon that the ebb will leave them
high and dry for sixteen hours, so that
they can be repaired between tides -
