A brutal assault occurred about 40,
Saturday evening, on Water street, on a
l0-years-old girl, which will demand Judge

REPUBLICANS. ARRESTED.
BELIEVED TO HAVE FOMENTED
DISTURBANCES IN SPAIN,
And to Have Incited Troops to
Mutiny Rather Than Go
to Cuba.

BARCELONA, Aug. 1S.-Ever since
the recent rioting in this city the au-
thorities have been on the alert to pre-
vent a recurrence Of the disorder. A
close watch has been kept on certain
Republicans, who, in connection with
other members of the party throughout
Spain, were believed to have been active
in fomenting the late disturbance.
As a result of this surveillance, Senors
A1arti and Ribot, both Republican mem
bers of the Cortes, and fifteen others
were to-day arrested. 1t is charged that
they are implicated in a conspiracy hav-
ing for it's object the creation of disor-
ders in connection with the coming en-
barkation of reinforcements for the
army in Cuba. 1t is believed that the
Republicans have made attempts to
tamper with the loyalty of the troops
and sought to induce them to mutiny
rather than to serve with the colors in
Cuba.
This plan is thought to have been eff
fectively frustrated and no trouble is
apprehended when the men destined for
service in Cuba, 10000, are dispatched
to the island. The most important ar
rest that has been made is that of Gen
eral Estebanese, who was Minister of
War in the Republican Government
which followed the abdication of King
Amedus in 1878.

GOLD DEMOCRATS.
They Are Reported to be Very Scarce
in Illinois.

CHICAGO, Aug. 1S.-Secretary Mel
son of the Illinois Democratic Commit
tee has been gathering reports from the
lO2 counties of the State as to what ac-
ton was being taken therein toward
forwarding the delegations to the gold
Democratic State Convention to be held
here August 25th. To day he had re-
ceived replies from more than half the
counties, the reports coming from
Chairman or Secretaries of County
Committees. On the summing up these
results Mr.. Nelson said: Il find that
Illinois will not send gold delegations
to the rump convention from more than
twenty-five counties, and that in some
Of these there are not enough gold
Democrats to make full delegations ac-
cording to the call. l also find that all
over the State, for every gold Democrat
who will bolt the Chicago ticket, there
are from ten to twenty silver Republi-
cans who will bolt Mckinley and Tan
ner and vote for Bryan and Altgeld
l do not see where the rump convention
is going to find delegates enough to
start up business. They will have to be
found in Chicago, and 1 suppose that is
why the convention was located here"

COLORADO DEMOCRATS.
Various Plans for State Fusion Are
Proposed.

DENVER, Aug. 1S.-The Democratic
State Convention to select Presidential
Electors and nominate a State ticket
meets in Pueblo at noon tomorrow. The
leaders of the party in the State favor
fusion upon almost any terms, but as to
the method of procedure do not seem
to be agreed. Three different courses
are mentioned by many delegates. One
is to nominate straight ticket with the
proviso that each nominee place his res
ignation in the hands of the Chairman
of the State Central Committee. Then
if a union of forces be consummated
such designations as may be necessary
Will be accepted
Another is for the convention to nomi-
nate Electors and then adjourn to meet
again at some future time to name
the remainder of the ticket. Still an
other plan is to leave the nominations
to committee to be named by the con-
vention or State Central Committee.
Some oppose any fusion with silver Re-
publicans, but want the support OF
Populists.
