ersl weeks ago, under instructions
Of Judge Hustled, the grand jury
indicted the mayor and eight
aldermen for illegally voting and
taking an increase of salary. They
demurred and claimed the indict-

with big array of counsel. The
judges ruling all through plainly

murers, and 1t will not be sur

In an interview Senior Francisco
Romero Robledo, minister of mercy

WANT MORE MONEY.
Congress Asked to Increase the Pay Of
the Railway Mail Clerks.


WASHINGTON, March 11.-Strong
efforts will be made by the house
committee on postoffices and post
roads to secure the passage by the
house of the bill to increase the
compensation of the railway mail
clerks. By the provisions of the
bill the number of classes in the
service on salary basis is in
creased from five to ten, and the
salaries of the clerks range from
$500 to 81 800. The proposition to
have two per cent of the salaries
withheld to establish a pension
fund was withdrawn. Reliable
statistics show that the mortality
among the railway clerks through
railroad accidents is greater than
that among the troops in the civil
war. These clerks are required to
pass an examination at a rating of
more than SO per cent, and are not
given vacations, although the de-
partmental employees in Washing
ton have holidays.

Blame For That St. Louis Accident,


ST. LOUIS, March 11.-General
Manager James E. Houseman is
coming in for a great deal of blame
for the accident on the st. Louis &
Kirkwood Electric line, in which
three men lost their lives and
many more seriously injured Sun
day evening. He is still inclined,
however, to lay the fault on Motor
man Aiken, who was killed at his
post, and who, Mr.. Houseman
says, was running his car at the
time of che accident in violation
of the the rules Of the company.
One fact has leaked out which
will show that the company is pri-
marily to blame for the whole
trouble. A defective trolley wire,
that had worked badly from the
start, caused the delay which re-
suited in the catastrophe. 1t is
known also that the company had
no printed rules for the guidance
of employees. Each man was given
verbal instructions by Mr.. House
man, it is now claimed, and they
were expected to remember and
obey them.
The first suit for damages as a
result of the accident has been
filed by DIR. G. NJ. Marshall, of this
city, who asks for $25, 900. His leg
was broken and he suffered other
injuries.

protection for such industry as
will secure fair prices for Ameri-
can wool; declares that the repub-
lican party stands for re.
ciprocity that reciprocates; for
international agreements which
get as much as they give; for
foreign policy genuinely American,
for the Monroe doctrine as Monroe
himself proclaimed it; for COM
mercial policy which will whiten
every sea with the sails of Ameri-
can vessels; for a fiscal policy
opposed to debts and deficits in
time of peace and favors the return
of the government to debt-paying
policy; contends for honest money,
for currency, gold, silver and
paper, which shall be as sound as
the government, and to that end
favors bi-metalism, and demands
the use OF beth gold and silver as
the standard money.

-Four young men. residing in this city, were
out on lark Saturday evening, and on their
way home early Sunday morning they made
considerable noise their singing and shouting
attracting the notice of Police Officer Mace,
who approached them and asked them to
move along quietly. The young fellows, how
ever. stopped to argue the question, and Mace
finally found 1t necessary to place two of
them under arrest. This angered the others
and they jumped upon him. They knocked
him down and took his club from him. and
while lying beneath an iron fence in a peril
GUS position Mace drew a revolver and fired
the bullet ENTERING the feshy part of Charles
Clapperton's left leg. Two of the young fell

When Mr.. Bryan spoke from the rear
platform the door at the front end of
his car was locked, making 1t nearly
impossible for the shorthand men TO
get near enough to the speaker to
catch his words.
After spending about thirty minutes
at the hotel Bartholdi, Mr.. Bryan re-
paired to Northern New Jersey. es-
corted by a committee of New Jersey
Democrats, where two of the biggest
meetings of his Eastern tour were held
The party crossed the river to Jersey
city. and took a train to Paterson.
The train was suburban one and was
loaded with commuters who made the
trip q lively one for the nominee by
cheering him and everything associated
with his cause.
At Paterson the crowd was so great
that the police had to fight to make
passageway to Mr.. Bryan's carriage.
A stand had been erected on Colts hill,
the site of the new poStoffce, an open
space covering an area of several
square blocks. The crowd packed into
this space was tremendous and when
the candidate appeared there was great
applause and fire works shot into the
air, company of local militia doomed
their cannon and red lights blazed on
different parts of the hill. After a
great effort Mr.. Bryan finally reached
the stand, but just as he was about to
begin his address, the electric lights
suddenly went out and the vast throng
was plunged into darkness. Great ex-
element prevailed for a time and the
nominee threatened to leave the stand,
but while the hubbub was at it's height,
the light was restored, the police re-
leived the creakfng stand of some of
it's surplus freight and Mr. Bryan
spoke.
The Paterson speech had to be cur
tailed to enable the party to catch the
train for Newark. A fife and drum
corps accompanied them to the train
and there was another big crowd In
waiting at the station. More carriages
were utilized and a procession was
started for Caledonia hall. where the
second speech was delivered. 1t was a
drive of fully two miles through the
residence portion of the city and the
quiet of the ride formed a striking
contrast to the scene which greeted
the nominee when the place was reach
ed. The hall is vast structure built
with a capacity of 10000. Every nook
and corner was damned with mass
of humanity and the immense sea of
faces rising ON an incline from the
stage, made a stirring spectacle. The
hall was profuseIy decorated. 1T was
nearly o'clock when Mr.. Bryan ar
rived and he was presented to the aud
fence without further delay.
