On All Sides.

HURLEY, Wis, Aug. 25.-Forest fires
are burning on all sides of this town,
also at Giles, three miles west of here.
A heavy gale is blowing. 1t carries
sparks long distances. and it is hard to
tell what the consequences will be. The
town is we'll supplied with fire apparat-
us and citizens are out in force and
business is suspended for fire-fighting
The fire is now within the town limits
and has burned few small buildings.
At this time it 1oks as if the firemen
can control it enough to make the town
safe. The Montreal River Lumber COM
pany's mill is threatened but they will
probably be able to save their. property

accuse us of using extravagant Ian
guage) to listen to the following Ian
guage:
Here Mr.. Bryan quoted at some
length from the speech of Mr.. Carlisle
on the subject of bimetallsm, delivered
in the house of representatives some
eighteen years ago.
THAT is the language of John G.
Carlisle, and I believe he spoke the
truth. If it was true then, it is true
today, and will be true, no matter
who may change his opinion or his
course upon this question (Applause.)
Truths once uttered will live, no mat
ter what may become Of those who
utter those truths. Some of cur OPP
ponents say that they are afraid that
we cannot maintain bimetallism alone,
We reply to them that we have waited
for twenty years for other nations to
help us, and if we are going to restore
bimetallism we have got to restore 1t
alone, because others don't come to our
assistance. (Applause.) More than
that, we believe that the assertion of
AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE
to bring about bimetallism would do
more than servile dependence upon our
enemies to bring it TO us. (Applause.)
Our opponents say that all we need is
a restoration of confidence. Whenever
the confidence is abroad in the COM
mCaity, the man who has the least
confidence gets off with the most
money daughter and applause) and L
am very much afraid that the con-
fidence man is abroad in this cam
paign preaching, Have confidence and
all will be we'll My friends, confidence
must have basis to rest upon. Our
opponents say that unless we shape
our financial policy to suit the pleasure
of foreign nations they will not loan US
any money. Gaughter.) We reply
that as long as we shape our financial
policy according to their pleasure, We
will always be borrowers and can
never be money-loaners ourselves.
IF you want to restore confidence,
you have got to restore prosperity to
the great mass of people and talk as
much about good property as they have
been talking about good money.
MONEY CAN BE TOO GOOD.
it and pray for It. but can't get a dol
lar of it. Great laughter and APP
plause) 1 have asserted and I assert
that without the aid of the money
owning class, the gold standard would
not stand for one day in any nation
under the sun. I assert that behind
the gold standard in this country the
only potent force consists of those who
hold fixed investments and those who
are brokers who provide or carry out
great bond issues.
Now, my friends. my time is up.
I must leave you to greet other peo-
pie"
Mr. Bryan then drove to the station
in time to board his train which left at
$40 p. m.
Mr.. Bryan's trip via Summit Noun
tain and Hudson was a series of ova-
lions. At both places the candidate
made short speeches in a happy vein.

Van Dercook of Flint, secretary. The
session was devoted to speech-making.
The silver convention made its tenn
porary organization permanent and
also listened to speeches to while away
the time. Hon. Albert Williams is
chairman.
The Democrats elected Thomas E.
Barkwith permanent chairman and a
conference committee was appointed.
All three conventions met again this
evening, but the conference committees
had reached no agreement and after
some more speech-making the conven-
tons adjourned until tomorrow.

WILL TALK TO THE WORKERS.

CHICAGO, Aug. 25.-A morning pa
per says:
William Jennings Bryan will address
the Wage-workers of Chicago on Labor
day, September Z. Arrangements to
bring about this end have been quietly
making for some time past and yester-
day it became a certainty that Mr.
Bryan will be in Chicago on Labor
day, and that the Democratic man
ayers want him to have an opportunity
to speak to the thousands of working
men who will be on holiday at that
time.

Surrounded By a blaze.

IRONWOOD, Mich, Aug, Cottonwood
is completely surrounded by forest fires.
Many houses on the outskirts of the city
have already been damaged, and the fires
are gaining ground rapidly. A high wind
is blowing, and the whole city is en-
veloped in dense smoke The fire de-
partment and every available man are
fighting the flames but with poor success.
No rain has fallen here for six weeks, and
everything is as dry as finder, and falls
an easy prey to the flames.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Aug. 25.-Rep-
Der of the Republican congressional ex-
ecutive committee, sought to enlighten
the managers at headquarters today
concerning the situation in Indiana, IL
linois and Ohio.
Mr. OverSreet said that General Har-
rison would make a number of speeches
in the northwest and that he was a
tower of strength to the party.
The people of the west, Mr.. Over
street said, have great confidence in
General Harrison Asked about the In
dianapolis convention, Overstreet said:
1.-THE convention is going to be a large
and representative one. 1t is estimated
that 10000 Democrats will attend My
belief is that the convention will name
a ticket"
Mr.. Overstreet believed that the nom
ination of a, ticket by the convention
WOULD HELP M'KINLEY.
1t would take but few votes from him
and he was satisfied it would take
representative j. D. Richardson of
Tennessee, who presided over the Chi
cago convention and who is actively at
work at Democratic headquarters here,
Said to The Herald correspondent to-
night that in his opinion the Indianap-
oils convention would be next to a
farce. I'm my own Tennessee district
said he, twelve men met in one
county and four in another and elected
a delegate to the gold convention.
MIR. Bryan says that nearly every
state will be represented, but if their
representation is secured by a bakers
dozen at the primaries, as was the case
in my district, the convention can
scarcely be regarded as of any signifi-
canoe whatever"
When asked who, in his opinion.
WOULD BE NOMINATED
at Indianapolis, Mr.. Richardson said
and >Buckner. He did not think they
would nominate a man like Mr.. Bynum
and was certain that neither Carlisle
nor Campbell would accept the nomi-
nation. He regarded General Palmer
as a possibility. Mr.. Richardson says
the Democratic congressional commit
tee is advised that there is not one ag-
ricultural or labor paper in the coun-
try supporting Mckinley, and this he
regards as significant. Mr.. Richardson
says there is no doubt whatever that
Senator Hill will stump New York for
Bryan. He believes that Mr.. Hill is
looking forward to 1900. Richardson
thinks New York will go for Bryan and
bases his prediction upon reports re-
ceived at headquarters.
The interview published by a New
York paper, in which Mr.. Henry Wat
terson is quoted as endorsing a num-
Der of Sound money" Democrats as
good men to be nominated by the In
dianapolis convention, and concluding
with the remark that he would not
shirk such a duty himself if he were
called on, regardless of the inconven-
fence or consequences, is looked upon
by many Democrats here as expressive
of Mr.. Watterson's Willingness to fight
the battle for gold money. Mr. Wat
tersons friends are enthusiastic over
the possibility that he may be made the
standard-bearer of the gold money
boilers.

TWO KILLED AND f0UR WOUNDED.
Bloody Battle in Florida That May Lead
UP to a Serious War of Whites
Against Negroes.

CHIPLEY, FLA. Oct. pa bloody
battle took place here last night il which
two men were killed and four Others seri-
ously wounded.
The trouble arose over wages. The man
who did the killing was ]. M. Criglar,
manager. of Hagerman's lumber-mills,
while the others were Iaborers.
The mills usually employ great many
men and recently there has been consid-
erable discomfort over the wages paid.
Last night the trouble eliminated. The
men made a threatening demonstration
about the mills. Criglar fired into the
crowd, killing two negro assailants and
seriously wounding four others.
The negroes are very much excited over
the affair and trouble is feared. The white
people are prepared to defend themselves
and race war is imminent. The popula-
tion of the place is only 354 and is about
evenly divided in color. The town is on
the Louisville and Nashville Railroad,
118 miles east of Pensacola.

ALL WORKED IN HARMONY.
No Factions or Sectional Differences Be-
fore the Board of Directors of the
Catholic UniYessify.

WASHINGTON. D. c., Oct. 22.-The
third and final session of the board of d.
rectors of the Catholic University of
America this morning was very brief and
the only business transacted was that of
changing the annual meeting from
Wednesday after Easter, which practice has
been found generally inconvenient, to the
second Wednesday in October to coincide
with the annual meeting of Archbishops.
The board also issued the following state
ment before adjourning:
The board wishes it to be understood by the
public that there are absolutely no factions or
sectional differences among the members.
The election of candidates for rectorshIp was
practically unanimous. To speak OF triumph of
this or that party, ,of conservatism or liberalism
nationalism or Americanism, is to misrepresent
the whole situation. All the members OF the
board are equally American in spirit. They
have but one thought, and that is the welfare
of the university ana its steady progress to the
highest Catholic education.
Alter adjournment of the board of di-
rectors the Archbishops held their annual
meeting. The. morning session was de-
voted to administrative matters of no gen.

HELLO IN An EMBASSY
Chinese Officials in London
Kidnap and Detain a
Refugee.
Sun Vat Sen Will Be Shipped Back
TO China for Plotting to Over.
throw the Dynasty.

LONDON, ENG, Oct. pa great sem
sation was created this afternoon by the
publication in the Globe of story that
detectives, at the instance of the Foreign
Office. have been watching the Chinese
EN- bassy here for some days past in con-
sequence of two Chinese officials having
seized and kidnapped Chinese physician
named Sun Yat Sen. belonging in Hong
kong as be was passing the Chinese en-
bassy on October II, the kidnapped man
having been detained in the embassy ever
since.
In explanation of this act, the Globe
says that in November, 1895, conspiracy
was formed to depose the Tartar dynasty
In China, beginning with the seizing of
the Viceroy at Canton. For this purpose
400 coolies were imported into Canton
from Hongkong. The existence of the
conspiracy leaked out, and the authorities
seized and beheaded fifteen of the leaders,
but the others managed to make their
escape, among them Sun Yat Sen, who
went to America, passed through that
country and finally came to England, and
has since been in London.
According to the Globe, friends of the
kidnapped man say that ship has already
been chartered by the Chinese embassy to
take him back to China. The British
authorities are powerless to relieve the
man from the embassy; as the law does
not permit the mbassy or legation OF q
foreign country to be invaded.
