WASHINGTON. Sept. ALL. Il.
Green, chairman Of the Republican state
committee OF Texas. was In the city to-
day on his way TO New York, and had
II brief conference with Chairman Bah
cock, or the Republican congressional
campaign committee. lie told Mr.. BaO-
cock that Texas was excellent fighting
ground for the Republicans. md ex-
pressed his own determination TO press
the contest to the end with the hope OF
winning. He says that fusion with the
POpulists and gold Democrats has been
practically accomplished, and states
that In some portions OF the Stnte the
POpullJts are talking OF n ticket COM
posed OF Mckinley and Watson. Mr..
Green also suys that Il canvass OF the
state has just been completed which
shows that the POpullstS outnumbcr the
silver Democrats. Mr.. Green thinks II
possible to Ein at least five congressman
from the Democrats In the state.
Vice President Stevens, OF the silver
party, WIN has Just returned from Colo

Congressman Apsley IN regard TO the
election prospects IN the west. Mr..
Stevens gays all the states In the west OF
the Missouri river are sure for Bryan.
and that Colorado. which Mr.. Apsley re-
CARDS az somewhat doubtful. will give
the Democratic candidate 1900 majority.
Mr.. Stevens also regards the south ~
solid against Mckinley, and Is OF the
opinion that Indiana, Illinois, Michigan,
Ohio, Minnesota and Iowa are the fight
ing grounds for the remainder OF the
campaign. For this reason Mr.. Stevens

mott mine, claims he was there merely
az a spectator. AZ lenst three OF tho at
tacklng party ntthG Emmet were seen to
be hit with bullets, but they were car
ried away BY their comrades.
Tho Coronado people heard OF the
coming OF trouble last night, but the
suppoSlti0n was that tho attack was 10
be made at the Emmett. Soon after
the destruction commenced many OF the
cltlZans responded quickly, armed with
rifles and shotguns. but they could do
little In fighting the fire and dynamite.
Foreman O'Kcofc was shot from behind
just after he turned a stream on the
fire ut the Coronado. The first attack
at the Coronado was made with dynu-
mite nenr the oil tanks. The mon with
In the enslosYre returned the attack
and n fusllade Of bullets followed, but
the dynamite did Its work we'll.
1t Is charged that tho iawiesnees OF
last night was due to u mob OF strikers,
principally from the Coeur dAlene
country. who have long been breeding
trouble In Leadvllle. and who, seeing
that the strike was nearing an end, wero
determined to make final stroke.
The assertion IS largely made by the
peaceflil miners Ot the camp. Early
last night there was every evidence that
the strike wns broken. Many miners
had announced their intention OF, going
to work this morning. After being re-
rulccd at the Emmett mine the mob,
which numbered not over nifty persons,
fled the town and nre hiding In the hills.
To-day hundreds OF miners say they
Will go to work al once. They de-
nouncc the extremists and say their nc-
tion mas lost the miners the strike.
The arrival OF the militia Is nnxlously
awaited, despite the apparent calm. The
local companies have been sent to the
hills. and armed citizens are patrollinE
the streets. The city council met to-day
md decided to aid the state officers in
apprehending the rlOters.
At u mass meeting OF citizens this ar
ternO0n. the lawless element will be de-
nOunced.
1t now appears that the men killed at
the Coronado mines were leaders OF the
attacking party, who were shot by the
Coronado guard. They were found In q
cabin near the mine, where It was first
supposed they had been taken by the
Coronado miners. Mahoney has died
and O'keefe Is dying.
