In King county can effect that result. At
Bryan ratification here tonight, in
which the populists, democrats and free
silver republicans took part, a determine
ton to GUST Wallace was announced, and
was cheered to the echo Richard Wind
sor, populist delegate to st. Louis, spoke
forcibly in favor of fusion, but said the
peoples party would never entrust the
battle to a gold bug like Wallace.
As soon as these words had been nj
tered, Win H. White, a delegate to Chi
cago, sprang to his feet and said: Eat
the convention at Ellensburg on August
Il the democratic party will right the only
wrong done at Chicago and will see TO IL
that Wallace no longer represents the
party in this state"
The meeting was expected to be So
large that speakers were provided for an
overflow meeting. The armory, however.
was able to hold all that came. The build.
ing was crowded and a great deal of en-
thusiasm was manifested,

Olympia, Aug. la grand democratic
populist ratification meeting, with bar

from all sections of the county defied the
storm and began to arrive. The theater

address. Farmer Todd followed Lewis,
but spoke for few minutes only, when
George Turner arose and occupied the re-
mainder of the time.
The speaker predicted that Bryan
would carry the state by 10000 majority
and said that eastern Washington was
solid for Bryan, and that the silver party
was growing every day.

Iz< Accommodating works re-
He'd Al bloodshed today. The trouble
[0enH11 &afIY in the morning, when mob
surrounded the house of one of the non
|union workmen and bombarded it with
stones and bricks. breaking the windows
and even smashing the weatherboards.
The police hearing of the trouble, pre-
pared Tor an outbreak at noon, when the
fion-union men should be dismissed from
work A party of these workmen, disre-
garding the efforts of the police to pro-
tect them, started to walk away from
the works. They had not gone far when
they were met by mob. First the riot
ers began to shout at the non-unionists,
and then threw bricks. And then the
workingmen drew revolvers and began
shooting at the crowd. Several shots
were fired. and one took effect. John
Prince fell to the pavement, shot through
the body and was taken to the hospital.
Soon after the shooting the police ar
| rived on the scene, but the mob had dis
appeared, and all was quiet.
| This outbreak resulted in the calling
| out of two companies of militia, and by
| the middle of the afternoon so policemen,
| in addition to the military, had been
massed in the vicinity of the Brown
works. No more trouble occurred. The
manager of the Brown works says the
| agreement for the settlement of the
strike is well understood by the members
of the strikers, and the company stood
| ready to live UP to it's terms. The viola
| ton of the agreement by the men, he
says absolves the company from any
further consideration of them, and en-
ables it to begin all over again on a new
basis.
| This is taken to mean that the company
will proceed to hire new men.
Big sympathetic Strike Coming.
1t is very probable that the Central
Labor Union will order a big sympathetic
strike throughout the city at the next
meeting of the Central Labor Union. To-
day the executive committee of the strik-
ing Brown Hosting Company men and
labor leaders met in conference and de-
cided that sympathetic strike was me-
| cessary.
The committee appointed by the Cen
| trail Labor Union to report on the advisa-
| bility of a sympathetic strike just before
the supposed settlement of the Brown
strike, reported favorably.
| The number of unions affiliated with
the Central Labor Union is over go. and
the total membership numbers 10000.
| These men have voluntarily bound
| themselves to obey the mandates of the
Central Labor Union, which consists OF
chosen representatives from different
unions. The fight will not only be To-
cal but national. Every union in the
United States will be called on to assess
its members for the support of the Brown
hosting works strikers.

with the legislative effort to kill the
Alliance.
He has never charged Mr.. Watson
with having voted for, or in any way,
having favored legislation against the
Alliance; he only said that he should
have been on the lookout for such
legislation.
He closed by asking the people of
all parties to unite on him and give
him a unanimous vote for GoverrsDr.
During his speech, in alluding to
Judge Russell's refusal to meet Wat
son and himself, he said that he could
not quite understand why the Judge
refused, unless he was uncertain as to
whether he should remain in the cam
paign to the end.
Mr. Watson in his rejoinder pelted
the Republicans and Populists, espe-
cially the Republicans, for their cries
for honest election laws in view of their
election law under which Candy coun-
ted the ballot in another State. He
said that all the Alliance measures
that he had supported, so far as he
knew, was an amendment that was
agreed upon and was perfectly salts
factory to Senator Butler and others
who had agreed upon amendments to

thought was necessary to protect in
dividual members from responsibility
for Alliance store debts.
He made his usual strong and forci-
BILE appeal for united action on the
part of the silver forces.
Maj. Guthrie in his reioinder de-
clared that he was first of all earnestly
and honestly for the election of Bryan
and the adoption of the reforms he
represented.
The Major remarked in my hearing
this afternoon that if anybody thought
that he was going to take back any
thing he has said with reference to
supporting gold bugs, they were sim
ply wrong in their man.

NATIONAL BASEBALL LEAGUE.
Summaries of Yesterdays Games in
Various League Cities.

Baltimore, Sept. 1.-THE Cham
pions lost to the Brooklyns to-day in
a dull and listless contest, totally with
out feature unless, perhaps, it was the
lack of interest displayed by the home
team. The game was one of the post
poned in Brooklyn, and had the Cham
pions won it, the Pennant for 1896
would have been theirs beyond doubt.
Attendance, 1853. Score:

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE Senator's
could not hit Carsey effectively and
in the fourth inning the visitors
punched pair of doubles and two sim
giles. A one hand catch of a line drive
by Cross, the general work of De-
montreville were the features of the
game. Attendance, 1000. Score:

Louisville, KY, Sept. 11.-To-day's
game was almost repetition of yes

same, and Louisville winning out in
the ninth inning on Clark's single and

RUSSELL At MoRGANToN.
He Was Bitter and yindictiye and
Dodged the Issues.

DpuSt0 TIC lSSuSS.
Morganton, Y. c., Sept. 11.-(Spe-
ciall-D. L. Russell spoke here to-day
TO an audience of not over 800, of which
100 V4ere Democrats and Populists.
Negroes formed most of the audience.
He was introduced by T. n Hallybur-
ton.
One of the first things he said was:
You have heard a whole lot from the
Democratic press about my being pull
ed down from the race for Governor. /
just want to tell you that | will not
come down unless come down by
death and then some other good Re
publican will take my place and then
on down till each one of the one hum
dred and fifty thousand Republicans
in North Carolina are exhausted" This
utterance is significant in view Of the
fact that State fusion is about to be
perfected between Republicans and
Populists.
He then said that the press Of the
State had published some remarks he
made before a jury once as his senti-
ments toward the negro. He said,
Whoever says / said those things a.
bout the negroes generally, lies"
He next took up the tariff, and con-
sumed considerable time on it. Every
body is familiar with the radical view
of the tariff and Russell presented it
that way, only in very weak manner.
Next he spoke of the "free'' things
the Democratic party had always adj
vocated: Free slavery, free liquor, free
trade and now free silver. He ridicul-
ed free silver, but finally said he
fhOuUhf that the paoY1le oII0ht IN try
it in a limited way.
Then he discussed the election law
at length. This was dry. He said he
had tried to vote the Republican ticket
for 30 years, but had never been allow
ed to do so till '94. He thanked God
for fusion. He said that the Charlotte
Observer had commented on his
transmontane speeches and wondered
what he would say over here. He said,
81 will say this in answer: That I am
the only Southern man who ever got
upon the floor of Congress and asked
for homes and pensions alike for the
Northern and Southern soldiers
Russell never once mentioned
Guthrie's or Watson's names. He touch
ed very light on free silver. In fact
he lodged it. He never mentioned
Mckinley nor Pritchard. The speech
was short one, only one and half
hours.
Democrats here are pleased at Rus
sells effort. They say he might have
done better. The Republicans are dis
appointed. His speech was not loud
ly applauded at any time. The general
impression here is that he gained no
votes

OPPOSITION TO REYNOLDS.
The Republicans of his Own County
VIII Knife Him.

Winston, N. c., Sept 11.-(SpeciaD-
There are two Republican factions in
Forsyth, one lead by Reynolds Broth
ers, and the other by DIR. w. II. Wheel
er. The latter openly denounce the
nomination of Charles Reynolds for
Lieutenant Governor and say they will
vote and work against him.
On the day that Bryan speaks in the
Greensboro the Casper Tobacco Co..
of Winston win shut up shop, give
every employee ticket, and pay him
for his time.
Reynolds and Congressman Linney
made speeches at South Side Park to-
night. Linney says Russell will re-
main at the head Of the Republican
ticket for Governor. A Wheeler man
says he will not run with Reynolds,
that if he remains, his defeat is GER
tain.

States bonds to hypothecate them
with the Treasury department. and re-
eeiye for them their par value in Uni
ted States notes with the privilege in
the owner to redeem them at any time,
thus giving the bondholders the un-
just and almost unlimited power to
expand or contract the currency.
Settle in his rejoinder denied having
favored this and challenged his, oppo-
nent to produce the proof Kitchin
thereupon read from Settles speech
delivered in Congress in August, 1898,
favoring the proposition. Settle took
water. This is sample of the debate.

joint debate. About 500 persons were
present
This is the strongest Populist sec

Several Of The leading Populists told

heart of one of the richest agricul-
