PLANNED TO DO UP THE POLICE.
Tragedy in Caused by
LnsyleSs Miners.

Leadville, Col, Jan. 10.-The killing of
Frank Dougherty last night by Policeman
Guyton caused intense excitement
throughout the city. Owing to threats
of l%ynching, armed citizens turned out
and reinforced the police guard at the
county jail until morning. and the law
and order element is on the alert tonight
to prevent any trouble which may arise.
1t now appears that about a dozen of
the most laWless of the striking miners,
including Dougherty, had planned to do
up the special police force Saturday
night, the signal to be the first word Ut
tered to any of the party by a police
man.
D%ougherty CHANGED to be the first man
spoken to by an officer, when Guyton ask
ed him if he had a gun. The result sur
prised the gang, and no further effort
was made to wipe out the police, al
though a crowd of several hundred col,
lected at the saloon where the shooting
took place, and the provost guard had to
fix bayonets and charge before the street
was cleared.

STORIES BY CUBAN sYMpATHIzERs

Child Shot DOwn-AnOther Terrible
Pit-Cuban Victory.
| New York, Jam. 10.-A Tampa, Fla, spe-
cial to the World says:
A schoolboy of 10 years was killed in
Guanabacoa ON Thursday evening by a
Spanish patrol because he refused to hur-
rah for Spain. The lad smiled when the
soldiers asked him to hurrah, not compre-
bending they wanted. They cursed
him as a Cuban" butchered hin not two
squares from his home, and left the body
in the street.
In the field surrounding the city dogs
have been seen eating human flesh and
gnawing human bones. More thar 500 peo-
pie have moved from Guanabacoa within
10 days.
Another large pit with lead bodies in it
was discovered Thursday near Guanaba-
Goa in a thick underbrush. Decomposition
was too far advanced to permit recoy-li-
tton of the bodies. 1t is supposed these
victims of Spanish cruelty belong to the
poorer classes of the suburbs, as many
have been reported missing lately.
Was n Cuban Victory.
Antonio Roginy, a native Cuban, forced
to leave home as the police were after him
OF suspicion, has arrived here. He says
the raid at Caobillas, called a Spanish
victory, was a great Cuban success. The
town was garrisoned by 500 Spaniards,
who had three cannon. Before daylight
Wednesday the Cuban insurgents under
Major Sores seized the outposts and al
most captured the entire place before the
Spaniards knew what was going on. The
annon in one blockhouse was turned on
the Spanish and they retreated to the en-
renohment Major Sores threw part Of
his force in the rear of the S%paniards and
routed them. The Cubans did not pursue;
they were after the spoils and supplies.
The Spaniards had managed to spike one
cannon, but the Cubans took the other
two with them, as we'll as the complete
camp equipage, including a large supply Of
ammunition.

TRIAL OF A DYNAMITE SUSPECT.
Irish Circles Await the Outcome OF
the Ivory Prosecution,

London, Jan. 10.-Intense anxiety is
manifested in Irish circles concerning the
probable fate of EdWar j.. Ivory. the
new dynamite suspect, who will De
brought to trial this week. AS the in
dictment has already been found, there
will be no preliminary delay. Although
an eminent array of counsel has been en-
gagged in his behalf. the net has been so
closely woven around the unfortunate
man by the New York traitors and spies
of whom he is the victim, that there is
not a shadow of doubt of his conviction.
Ivory is now said to be convinced that
he has been made the tool of a number
OF so-called representative Irishmen in
America, who think nothing of wrecking
a life so that they may have fresh mate
rial for demagogic proclamations con-
corning the hatred of the British people
for the Irish, and for new appeals to the
ignorant and credulous for funds. There
is absolutely no question but that Ivory
was betrayed to the British detectives by
the very men in New York and Brook
lynW who induced him to undertake the So
called mission, and it Is also a fact that
these same men ave advised him to
make a s~pread-eagle patriotic speech in
the dock, and which they can use in their
next proclamation to the Irish race"
Ivory may get off with 10 years, but he
is more likely to get %. Extraordinary
precautions will be taken to insure the
safety of Jones, the spy, upon whose evil
dence the case against Ivory mainly
rests. He has been in strict seclusion
since the police court proceedings, and
will be kept at Scotland Yard during the
forthcoming trial, being escorted to and
from the court every day by an armed
and mounted guard.
A Hcinous Conspiracy.
London, Jan. 10.-Former Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Mcintyre of New York,
who resigned that position to come here to
conduct the defense of Edward J. Ivory,
charged with completely with P. J. lyman
in a dynamite conspiracy, was interviewed
today.
Mr.. Mcintyre says he has been engaged
since his arrival with Ivory's ;onn-
He asserts his conviction that certain
officials are manufacturing evidence in
the case to w their interests. mr..
says he is satisfied that a few
years ago Jones, the informer, undertook |
FOR a large sum to furnish Scotland Yard
with evidence. Failing at that time to do
so, he is now swearing against Ivory, says
Mcintyre, in order to fulfill his promise.

ITALY CALLED DOWN THE SULTAN.
Refused to Take AZ Verbal PrOnise
Of the Porte.

London, Jan. 10.-A dispatch from Con

Rumors of a massacre of Christians at
Trebizonde, which originated by the STATIC
ment that an Italian gunboat had baan

hat an Italian subject named Marani was

l2rzeroum. The italian ambassador de-
rhanded the immediate return of Ma9lni

threatened to send gunboats till the porte
gave a written promise of compliance.
The incident has caused a sensation at
.Constantinople on account of the belief
Italy was backed by the powers.

that the sultan has not had such
a humiliation as for an ambassador to .e-

ton to the society by wives, daughters
and sisters Of the members of a costly
statue. The enthusiastic women some
time ago formed a society for the purpose
of soliciting funds from the wives and
daughters of the Lieder-Kranz so that be-
fore long they had $4,000 raised, which has

the boy. The piece of statuary is eight
feet high and of bronze. 1t will be placed

Here are the trustees of the society for
1862, elected last year: President, Will
liam Steinway; first vice president, Julius
Hoffman,; second vice president, Richard
Fl. Adams; corresponding secretary, G.

SteinWay has resulted in the elevation of
Mr.. Hoffman, to the presidency. The

later in the season by a foreign trip to be
taken by it's entire male chorus Of ice

steamer will stop at Gibraltar, where a
short halt will be made. After seeing the
sights at Genoa, the party will embark

Italy, Germany, Switzerland and Austria.
The net proceeds of each concert will be
turned over to the mayor of the city in
which it is given to be devoted to local
charities. The expenses Of the trip will be
about 3oo,00U, which amount has been
raised by subscriptions.
