A LIVELY FRACAS.
j. w. HIGGINS souNDLy THRAsHEs
two VISITORS.
They Came with war-Likc Inten-
tons, But He Wiped up the Floor
with Them-cause OF the Trou-
BILE.

Waco. Tex. April 15.-(Speoial.)-A
sensational fraeas occurred this even
ing In the office of ]. w. higgins, presl-
dent of the Waco Trading company
and one Of the best known citizens OF
Waco. The difficulty was between Mr.
higgins and h. S. Mcmahon and ID. ].
In this county. and Mcmahon was form
erly TALLER at the county jail The men
stated they had come TO have set
Element with Mr.. higgins and invited
him out on the street, but he refused
to go. One made motion as II to
draw a gun and higgins started In
with u cane and literally wiped up the
floor with his visitors When they were
completely hors du combat on the floor,
he took handkerchief and wiped the
blood from them. They were arrested.
The matter is supposed to have grown
out Of an incident which occurred yes
terday.
w. d. Burton. an advertising solicit
tor for the Morning Times, published
few days an attack on Mr. higgins in
the Evening Press, local daily publ
cation. Mr. higgins began to look for
Burton, and the latter armed himself
with six-shooter. higgins saw Bur-
ton enter n dry goods store yesterday
and followed him in. Burton saw his
pursuer and dashed around the store,
reached the front door and mover stop
ped running until he reached his apart
ments.
1t is supposed that the men who call
ed on Mr.. Higgins this morning APP
peared as proxies for Mr.. Burton.

rnoToooL WILL NE SIGNED
Points In the boundary Line Ques-
tlnn SeilIel.

New York, April 10 "A special TO the
Herald from Valparaiso. Chill, gives the
gnrding an agreement on the boundary
question. The governments OF Argen-
tine and Chill have reached an agree
ment on the boundary question and
that protocol win be signed. The
points governing the line OF demarca-
ton have been changed to meet the
views of both governments as far as
possible, and It Is believed that arbi-
tration will ensue as to any difficulties
that may arise In the future. The ques-
ton OF the granting port on the Pa
ciflc ocean to Bolivia has yet to be
considered. The news OF the Pacific
agreement has had good effect on
the exchange.

THE NATION WOULD PROFIT.

According to the remarks made by
Mr.. W. L. Comstock before the Demo.
wing of the Popocratic party conven-
tion yesterday, the political virtue of
the country is all confined to the
Popocrats. Matters at the Republi-
can national convention in ST. Louis,
he said, were cut and dried by Mark
Hanna, who held the bosses of the
party in one hand and squeezed the
trusts and corporations with the
other. OF course this was said to
tickle the palate Of those who listen
ed TO him, whom he knew desired
just such stuff. For surely Mr.. Com
stock has not forgotten two facts
connected with the canvass for the
nomination, one being the uprising
of the rank and file of the Republican
party in favor of Major Mckinley, and
the other that all Of the great So
called bosses Of the party fought Mr..
McKinley's candidacy up TO almost
the hour of his nomination. Mr..
Comstock further stated that in
event Of Mr.. McKinley's election, the
trusts and corporations would benefit
therefrom. Or course they would ia
connection Of every other interest
and every other person in the cOun-
try. But the manufacturers to profit
any, must have their institutions in
operation, and this gives employment
to thousand of operatives at good
wages. This enables these opera
tives to buy freely from the farmers.
1t puts thousands Of dollars into cir
culatiOn and makes business lively in
all lines. Does Mr.. Comstock see
anything wrong in this, which would
result from Mr.. McKinley's election?
But why should not these interests
prosper? Does Mr.. Comstock think
it is any worse for them TO make
little money upon their investment
than it would be for the silver mine
owners and bullion spectators to
make AZ cents on every dollar they
could get coined at government eX-
pense, in case Mr.. Bryan should be
elected? Noone would reap any bene
fit from this except themselves, for
the plain people, for whom he was SO
Solicitous, would have to work for
them just the same as they do now,
and if the dollars are worth only
their bullion value, as they surely
would be, it would take many more
hours work to earn the necessities of
life, than it did previous to the
present hard times, or even in many
instances at present.

LIGHT ON THE CHECKS.
A Business Man Filled i'm All but
the Signatures.

A we'll known business man, who
does not desire that his name be pub
lished, after reading the account of
the forged check passed by one VIM.
johnson on Ed. Cousandier, in last
evenings FREE PRESS, called as our
office and said that he felt that he
had been instrumental in some de-
gree in aiding Johnson in preparing
his forgery. He said in substance:
LAST Thursday, Sept. Sd, an Irish
man who gave his name as VIM. John
son came into my store and made a
small purchase, and started to go.
Coming back he exhibited a time
check written with a lead pencil and
purporting to be signed by Z. G.. Nc
Kay 1t said that VIM. Johnson had
worked twenty-five days at $3.50 a
day and was entitled to S55. Another
man, whose name do not remember,
was entitled to S47. Johnson asked
me to draw off these time checks on
separate slips of paper, which l did
for him. He then produced two OF
Mr.. McKay's blank checks on the
Mankato National bank and asked me
TO fill them out and he would have
them signed. | filed the $50 chez k
out in Johnson's name, and the 81
check in the other mans name, as the
man acted honestly and naturally
and told straight story. He said
that he couldn't write very well and
that it would be a favor to him if ]
did this.
"The man was under the medium
size, about forty years old, weighed
about $50 pounds, and had reddish
complexion and mustache, and was
dressed like working man. l sized
him up as working man Of little
education, yet used to the forms Of
business.
The signature on the check cashed
by Mr.. Cousandier was distinctively
different from that of the rest Of the
check, yet was written by good pen
man, in steady and plain style. The
endorsement on the back was evil.

the check, and in a scrawling hand

BRYAN MAY SPEAK HERE.

Presidential Candidate Bryan may
visit Mankato during the campaign.
III. Zimmerman Jr. was in the Demo
cratic committee rooms In ST. Paul
last week and heard that there was
a good deal of probability that he will
make speech in Mankato. Frank A.
Day desires this and is working to
this end. Mr.. Bryan would draw a
large house, Republicans as well as
Democrats according him respectful
hearing. Local pride will cause all to
hope that if Bryan is to speak in
Southern Minnesota it may be in
MankatO.
