DIsGRAoEFUL FACTION FIGHT.
Republican Primaries Last Night


The Republican primaries for the cleo
tion of delegates to the County Conven-
ton were held last night and were as
usual attended with disgracefu1 factional
fights and the usual number of charges
of crooked work at the polls are in cir
eulation today There was a striking
contrast between the harmony at the
Democratic primaries and the rows at
the Republican. The Republicans are
also trying to figure out today how it IS
that such a heavy Democratic vote was
polled and such distressingly light one
for their delegates. They will not adj
nit that people are tired of Republican
rescality.
Max Salinger appears to have captured
the Senatorial delegates. The party
managers have no use for Max, but they
could not find man of any strength
who was wiling to sacrifice himself for
the party'S sake.
The delegates of the First district are
said to be pledged to Elmer w. De-
marest a young lawyer who enters the
political arena for. the first time.
James F. Blackshaw is TO be given re-
nomination in the Second.
Henry G. Gruber has captured the
delegates of the Third district.
The Fourth district has Alderman
witter. Roland Bovine. samuel ,BIakey E5
and William A. Lewis for candidates.
Witter will probably win.
Fred Schober would not accept renomi-
nation in the Fifth. knowing he would
be defea ted. Charles B. Falkenberg Is
the choice of the delegates
The Sixth district delegates are ciedged
to Frank Lockwood. fvT.-erly justice
of the peace.
The Seventh district has Thomas
Cot1ghlin and David E. Perley Of Harri-
son for candidates. Coughlin IS said to
have the call.

Laredo, Texas, March 9.-Engineer
John Neufer, who is reported to be
responsible for the wreck of the inter-

story of the accident:

excursion train which was returning

coaches in this section. AT Tenango.

feet. The third coach. behind
the one which left the track,
was what is known as Eng

of steel and the sides of iron. This
coach plowed through the two coaches
in front of it and caused the havoc
which cost many passengers their
lives. The passengers in this coach all
escaped.
"As soon as the accident occurred"
said Neuffer, I went to the rescue of
the sufferers, and while engaged in
doing all could to relieve their suffer

CLOSING SCENES.
They Were Full of Dramatic Inter-
est Yesterday,


Minneapolis, MINI, March s.-Court
opened an hour earlier than usual to-
day to give Mr.. Erwin time to close
his argument for the defense in the
Hayward case, which has already
lasted two days.
Erwin began by pointing out that
the loan Harry Hayward had made to
Miss Cling had not been attacked in
the evidence, except by the word of
Claus BliXt. The validity of this loan
was the citadel Of the defense. 1t was
evident that, had the pohce machine
been properly set in motion. the myS-
terry surrounding Miss Gin6's behavior
would have been solved and in q man
ner consistent with the noble character
Of the girl. At the same time it would
have relieved this innocent man from
the chain under which he NOW rests"
Erwin Runs Wild.
Mr.. Erwin then devoted himself to
the abb and claimed that all Of
Harry's time when he was involved
by BliXt's testimony had been sattSfac-
torily accounted for,
In closing, he said this wag the most
monstrous persecution in history.
"If you are, in obedience to the pres
sure brought on you, to tear down all
the rules Of law; if fanatioi5m and the
mopstrosity Of this alliance between
the periurer and the murderer
are to influence you, then tell
your artisans to remove from
all our domes the statue Of Justice.

No Halfway Verdict.
It took Judge geagrave Smith forty
minutes to read his charge to the jury.
He declared that the verdict must be
guilty as charged, or not guilty. If the

SUGAR BOUNTIES.
REGULATIONS FOR THEIR PAY.
MENT BEING CONSIDERED.
Appropriation not Large Enough Ia
Cover Entire Claims So the Fay-
ments VIII Be Pro-Ratcd.

Washington. March 6.-The secretary
Of the treasury viii. within the next
few days, begin the preparation Of
regulations under which the appropriate
ton OF 100000 made by the last Con-
Sress as a bounty for sugar produced
in 1894 will be made. The act provides
that there shall be paid on cane and
beet sugar produced in 1894 a bounty
at the rate of eight-tenths of one cent
per pound, and appropTiates s.. O00. 600
for this purpose. The best data obtain
able. however, indicates that the ap-
preparation is entirely too small, and
that something like S6,120,O0O would
be necessary to IQUidate all of the
claims on a basis of eight-tenths of a
cent per pound.
Louisiana, it is said, produced about
700,000,000 pounds, Florida and Texas
2O,O00,000 pounds. and estimating the
beet sugar production at $4,000, 900
pounds, the same IS the yield of 1893,
gives a total of 765,OOOOOO pounds.
In view of the probable shortage
Secretary Carlisle has decided to pro
rate the payments among all the pro-
ducers according to their yield This
would warrant a payment Of about 90
cent per pound, instead Of 8 cent.
Under this arrangement all claims Will
fare alike and any scramble for pre-
oedenco will be avoided.

Philadelphia. March S.-A letter received
In this city today from Charles Jones,
steward OF the missing American bark
Portland Lloyd. which left Junin for New
York on February 4, conveys the start
ling information that the vessel was
wrecked during desperate nutiny on
board, in which the captain and most Of
his crew were killed. Shortly after the
bark left Junin with q valuable cargo of
nitrate, il was reported she had struck
on rock at the entrance to the bay of
Junin and all hands were drowned.
Jones' letter declares that the affair was
a planned attempt by the revolutionary
party in Feru to seize the VesserS cargo
for use against the government. The
captain was knocked down With a hand
spike, the chief mate was shot dead and
two sailors stabbed. The men at the
wheel, seeing that they were at the
mercy of a set Of desperate men, purpose
ly steered The bark onto the rocks. The
steward and a. B. Jelinsson, a seaman,
we're the only ones OF the American
crew saved. They endured great hard
ships and had to lie concealed for some
days before they could escape the ruff
fans. The leader of the nautineers is said

Of cut throats concealed on board. it is

A. X. Mcclure. editor of the Philadel-

crowd at the opera house and in the
course of his speech he denounced free
silver as advocated by extremists,
characterized their doctrines as non

bugs had not come to the governments
rescue when Congress refused to aid,
the governments credit would have
been permanently impaired.
This created a sensation, especially
