Strikers Conflict at LeadvilIe.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 2O.-A pitch
ed battle occurred this morning in the
section of this city known as Little
Italy between a squad Of policemen
and the inmates Of "speak-easy" who
were resisting arrest. Although the en-
counter lasted but fifteen minutes one
man was shot and killed, while five
others were more or less seriously
wounded. The proprietor of the speak
easy" was finally arrested, together
with seven combatants, and at hear
ing the participants were held on
charge of murder The victims are:
Michael Pizza, shot in the head and
left lung, instantly killed; Policeman
Sibert, struck on the head with brick;
Policeman Thayer, hand crushed with
brick; Joseph Miller, a spectator, shot
in the hand; Policeman Mitchell, struck
on the head with a brick: Robert DON
Ohue, a citizen who took part In the fra
cas-, struck on the head with a brick
and stabbed in the breast.
The scene of the affray was a dingy
three-story brick house in the heart
of the Italian district.
About midnight Special Officers Hamm

Siebert, Mitchell, Thayer, Wagner,
Phillips and Rooney, all attired in citi

street house with a warrant for the ar
rest of Michael VOLTA, charging him

nobody seems to know, but there were

A portion of the inmates had by this

to shoot at the officers in the alley
Bricks were torn from the chimneys and

Bryan'S False Appeal.

The assumption that the restoration
of free coinage of silver would re-es-
tablish the monetary and industrial con-
ditions of 1873 is equally misleading
and delusive. They have enormously
assumed that all the changes in the val
ue of silver and commodities since 1873
was the result of demonetizing silver
and consequently falsely reason that to
re-eStablish free coinage would re-eS-
tablish all the other conditions of that
period. In his Madison Square Garden
speech Mr.. Bryan said:
I'VE are not asking that a new ex-
pertinent be tried. We are insisting
upon return to a financial policy, ap-
proved by the experience of history and
supported by all the prominent states
men of our nation. When we ask that
our mints be opened to the free and
unlimited coinage of silver into full
legal tender money we are simply asking
that the same mint privileges be ac-
corded to silver that are now accorded
to gold
This is a good sample of how free sill
YER orators substitute rhetoric for logic
and sentiment for fact. There is prob
ably not free silverite in the country
who would not insist that this state
ment is strictly true, yet in fact it is
wholly untrue. They are asking for an
entirely new experiment that never has
been tried. The policy they are now
advocating was never approved by the
experience of history" nor was it ever
supported by single prominent states
man in this country. No country in the
world was ever foolish enough to try
to keep two metals in circulation with
free coinage at a ratio which gave one
metal A per cent. the advantage of
the other. 1t is true that prominent
statesmen, from the first President
down to 1879 favored the free coinage
Of silver, but always and only at legal
ratio substantially equivalent to the
market ratios of the two metals. Mr..
Bryan'S statement that 1--WE are simply
asking that the same mint privileges
be accorded to silver that are now ac-
corded to gold" is not true. The privi-
lcge that is accorded to gold is that it
shall have free coinage at its market
value, and they are asking that silver
shall have free coinage at o3 per cent.
of it's market value. To put silver on
the same condition for coinage as gold
would be to give it free coinage at it's
bullion value, which would not be is
to /, but 81 to l. Hence free coinage at
16 to / to-day is a totally different prop
osition from 16 to | in 1873 and would
produce entirely different consequences.

THE WIDOW RECANTS.
She Thinks Patten Got the Best End
of the Bargain.

OAKLAND, Sept. 2O.-John Patten, a
war veteran with a glib tongue and a
controlling interest in an Oregon gold
mine, recently induced Mrs. A. f. Steele,
a wealthy widow of Oakland, to sign an
agreement by the terms Of which she
was to provide him with a home for
life in exchange for his interest in the
mine. The lady furnished Patten with
an outfit and he prospected his mine,

which proved to be worthless

surrendered the agreement. Patten
preferred death to surrender, but Of

of $500, which offer was refused. He
was then liberated and has now begun
suit to compel Mrs. Steele to live up to
her agreement. The widow declares
that she was victimized by Patten,
whose mine is worthless, and she pre-

SWAN ACROSS GOLDEN GATE
Charles CaviM AccOmplishes the Feat
uccesSfulIy.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 2O-Man
has conquered the sweeping flood of
waters at the Golden Gate. Charles
Cavill this afternoon swan from shore
to shore, accompanied by a fleet of
sail boats and many screaming steam
ers and tugs. When his feet touched
the sand at Fort Point and he stood up
and bowed to the multitude the occu-
pants of almost numberless rowboats
added their cheers to the toot of wtis-
ties and the clang of bells.
Cavill is said to be the first and only
man who ever accomplished the feat
of swimming from shore to shore where
the bay and ocean meet. Cavill was
one hour and fifteen minutes in swim
ming across the gateway of waters.
The distance straight across is only
about one and a quarter miles, but
before his feet touched bottom on the
opposite shore Cavill had swan seven
miles. The tide-a very strong ebb
stream-did it. He went into the water
at $3.50 and at 4:45 he walked ashore
on the other side. Throngs of spec
tators dotting the nights applauded the
finish.

Gold and Silver Coinage.

The claim that the demonetization of
silver has increased the demand for
gold is unsustained by the facts, as
might be expected, since the use of sill
Yer has been greatly increased. From
$500 to 1873, there were coined in the
world ID. 239 600 ounces of gold. From
1873 to 1894 only 53.900,000 ounces of
gold have been coined. That is to say,
there have been IS, $50, 600 ounces less
Of gold coined from 1873 to 1894 than
was coined from 1900 to 1873. In other
words as compared with 1S0O-1S13, the
worlds coinage of gold since 1873 has
diminished % per cent, while the
worlds coinage Of silver during the
same period has increased - per cent.
These facts conclusively demonstrate
the fallacy of the claim that silver was
struck down by the Act of 1878, or that
the demand for gold has increased and
that the value of gold has appreciated.

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 20.-San Luis Rey
Valley, which has been the scene of
many tragedies, added another bloody
page to its history last night when
Manuel Bellina, a rancher living on the
Pancho Pico place, was instantly killed
by Albert ]. Foss. The killing has fea-
lures that point to premeditation.
Young F'osS who lives on his mothers
ranch and about two hundred yards
north of her house, said he heard his
dogs barking and cattle making noise
Thinking a coyote had come into the
place he took his shotgun loaded with
buckshot and started out to see what
was the matter. He found nothing out
of the way on his place and then went
down past his mothers house
Under the trees not far from the house
he saw a man skulking. He called out
to the stranger, but got no reply. The
man stopped and seemed to be covering
under the trees. Foss called out again
but no answer came and then he shot
The man dropped in his tracks. Foss said
1t was too dark to see who the intruder
was and that he shot because he be-
lieved the man was there for some evil
purpose. Foss, who is about % years
old, did not confess to the killing until
toward the end of the CorOner's inquest
to-day. After he had been questioned
for some time he admitted that he had
done the shooting and related his story
as above.
1t was his aged mother who lives en-
tirely alone who was brutally NAL
treated two years ago by Jose Chavez,
an Indian, who was sent to San Quentin
for forty years for the crime. Young
Foss testified that it was the remem-
brance of this crime and the fact that
his mother was entirely unprotected
that caused him to be suspicious and
perhaps led him to shoot quicker than
he otherwise would. When the stranger
under the trees did not answer he took
It for granted that trouble was brewing
and he shot first, not knowing whether
the stranger was armed or not The
Coroners jury rendered a verdict that
the stranger had come to his death from
a. gun shot wound at the hands of FoSS.
Constable Hubbell brought Foss down
tonight, but did not place the prisoner
in jail. obtaining the consent of the Dis
trict Attorney to keep him at hotel.
The preliminary examination will take
place at Oceanside early this week.
