REVIVING CLAN-NA-GAEL.
John Dewey Demonstrates Himself
a Slick Artist at the Job.

BUFFALO, n. Y, John Dewey, of New
York, has been doing missionary work all
through western New York the last eight
or ten days. He has conducted his oper-
ations very quietly, and until this evening
the general public was not aware Of his
presence here. His plan was to visit a
city or town where the Clan-Na- Gael had
lodge before the disruption Of the order,
due to DR.. Cronin's murder, and to send
out personal letters to all the leaders ask
ing them to attend conference 'of true
and tried Irshmen, for the purpose Of
laying before them certain important
facts in relation to the National move
ment, and asking their cooperation in
restoring it to its old position of power
and usefulness"
Meetings Of this kind were held in
Rochester, Batavia, Lockport and Dun
kirk. Making Buffalo the center of his
operations he sent out call for meet
ing tonight. Some of the letters reached
persons not 10 sympathy with the re-
organization of the order and it was given
to a newspaper which printed the letter
in full. The result was that the proprie-
tor of the hall refused to allow the meet
ing to be held there. Those who after
ward met Dewey at his hotel were very
close mouthed In view of the publicity of
their intentions.
Mr.. Dewey makes the assertion to his
conferees here that the Clan Ma gael is
assuming its old strength all over the
country, particularly in the west, and
has large enrolment in Chicago. II Is
charged here that he tried to make CAPT.
tai Of the fight among factions Of the An
cient Order Of HIbernians, representing
TO detected faction that it could
strengthen itself before the next election
by organizing a clan.

THAT MONTANA FIRE.
ORIMINALITY OF THE WAREHOUSE
OWNERS CHARGED.
They Had, 1t Is Averred, 90 Tons,
Instead of $50 Pounds, of Giant
Powder Stored.

BUTTE, Mon, Jan. Is. - Hour
after hour the disaster puts on a
more distressing proportions, and
it looks now as if the real weight
and extent OF the terrible calamity
will never DO known. The list OF
known dead has swelled to 50, and
there are at least four in the hos.
pitfalls who cannot recover. Others
are also beloved to be fatally in
jured. Included in the list Of fifty
three are four missing firemen.
There is a little doubt that many
were blown to atoms who will
never be heard Of.
Among the debris were found
letters addressed to VIM. Moffett,
1853 Fremont street, Boston, signed
"Ambrose Allen" Bills from a
lumber company to T. II. Mackey
were also found. Another letter
from Portland, Ogn., signed "E. c.
Smith" and a portion Of body
have been found, supposed to be
that Of J. d. Cameron, fire marshal,
but Identification is not certain.
Every hour brings additional re-
ports of the injured. Fully one
hundred have been heard from,
many in a serious condition.
Although the owners of the
warehouses where the explosion
occurred state they had less than
$50 pounds OF giant powder (the
legal amount) in their building, it
is estimated by mining men IA
miliar with explosives, that there
were at least twenty tons. Citizens
are determined to fix the blame
and the investigation will be
thorough.
The work Of relief has made OK.
cellent progress. Nearly $4,000 are
subscribed. The Northern Pacific
railroad company and several min,
ing companies contributed $1,000
each. The families Of many OF the
victims are in a most distressing
condition. There was but 5000

THE DEMPsEY-RYAN MILL.
Odds Are offered on Ryan, but the
Police Will Not Permit
Slugging Match.

CHICAGO, Jan. lS.~The fifteen round
glove contest between Tommy Ryan,
weller weight champion of America, and
Jack Dempsey, eX-champton middle
weight, will be decided before the Sea
Side club of Coney Island tonight. Both
men II is believed, are in tip top condition
for an hours rough work, ii the police
will permit II. While not trained to the
nicely he was prior to the New Orleans
date, Ryan is plenty strong enough with
a SoundneSS Of wind TO 90 the route
Dempsey iOUrneyed from New Orleans to
to New York and claims to have done
enough work on ship board to keep him
self 10 fair shape. 1t is believed that
Ryan will weigh In the immediate vicini-
pound lighter than the famous Nonpariel.
Joe ChoyiSnki will be Ryan's chief
handler In the ring and Jack McAulitfe,
IL his lame arm permits, will perform a
like service for the old timer, with Brook
lyn" Jimmy Carroll as an assistant.
Tim Hurst, the baseball umpire, will act
as referee. AS to the probable outcome
Of the battle there is little division OF
opinion. The best judges favoring Ryan's
chances almost to a man. In fact, Demp-
sey's supporters are a decidedly scarce ar
ticle 10 this city. 1t seems to be gener-
ally thought here that Ryan will make
such punching bag OF the veter-
an that the police will exercise their right
OF stopping 1t early in the game. Should
they do so draw is probably the best
Ryan can get. 1t seems almost fore
gone conclusion that Ryan could win in a
finish battle which could be allowed to
proceed to knock out without interior
ence, but in the present instance the cir
cumstances are much different.
The articles OF agreement declare that
in case of police interference the men
having the best of the fight up to that
time shall be awarded the fight.
Ryan will make serious mistake IL he
''lays off, for the first four or five rounds
to feel" his opponent and then go In and
finish him. If Dempsey is permitted to
cut out the work for that number OF
rounds and has the best OF it the western
man WILL find it uphill work to catch his
man on points scored, as the police viii
probably end hostilities as soon as Ryan
begins to open his heavy batteries.
Last nights dispatches from New orE
announce that all the betting is in favor
of Ryan. At the Hoffman house one bel
Of $500 to S4C1 was made on Ryan, and an
other even that Dempsey would not ge'
as good as a draw. 1t is understood tha'
A. Seligman took the Dempsey end o.
both bets. Parson Davies bet Sl,C,O t
500 on Ryan, and later offered to l OF
his prOtege.

PARIS, Jan. 1S.-The election of

EDITORIAL VAPOR.

From the Texas illumination.
1t can be notched upon a single
as a stubborn fact, that Nickel
john will do his utmost to elect
Elmendorf for mayor to preside
over his (E's) own private affairs.
notwithstanding the black laws
upon the statue books of Texas, and
two Negro burnings, the Lone Star
State is the best Of all the Southern
States to her sable population.
Any fellow citizen who cannot
look with pride upon his rapidly
growing and substantially devel-
oping city, ought to be used as
the canine bowler of the irresist-
able assistant mayor.
Let Democracy, knock the bung
hole out Of that Separate Coach
Law, and the Negro will keep
populism from knocking the bung
hole out of Democracy; other wise
he will be a "participrinceps" in
welding the mallet.
Out Of the 100000 Negroes in
Texas, The illumination will wager
it's best Sunday hat to "Peg leg"
and Ellis worn out socks, that they
can't get 80 Of them to get in their
free cars for the land of the Monte
Zumas.
What can the laboring classes Of
the Negro race expect, from Judge
Callaghan il he is elected? Can any
one in authority guarantee that in
matters Of appointment and street
work, they will not be ignored for
his Mexican friends?
"Peg Leg" Williams is kicking
up a mighty big dust in George,
anent Mexican Colonization. If
those Negroes, go they had better
carry enough money to pay their
way back. Such large scale en-
igrations have never failed to palm
out as soap bubbles.
The Evening LIGHT of this city,
maintains always friendly stand
towards the race, ever ready to
mention and encourage any good
effort fathered by the Negro. or
the three daily papers, it is the
most courteous, and as a result
may be found in hundreds Of
Negro homes in the city, where no
other paper is read.
