James Roche, NJ. P, Says an In

ence Will Be Held.
At Least Assurances Have Been
Given by Chamberlain and
BalfOur.
Recent Action of the Bank O1
England Of Great Service
to the Cause.

VANCOUVER, B. c., Sept. 29.-James
Roche, member of parliament for East
Kerry, is now in the SLOGAN district of
Kootenai. Mr.. Roche is deeply inter.
ested in the silver question, and as he
was q member of the conference that
recently dealt with that question in
England, his views should prove inter.
esting. In an interview Mr.. Roche said:
I'VE have the strongest assurances
from Mr. Chamberlain and Mr.. Balfoul
that all international conference will
be called at Brussels in May. I think
the business transacted at Brussels will
result III the re.opening Of the India
nints at least. Senator Wolcott, OF
whom SO much has been heard ON the
bimetallic question, is an exceedingly
clever man, and powerful champion
OF the cause. Though considered free
lance by the public generally in the
voicing of his views while in England,
have the strongest reason for believ.
ing that he was an accredited repre-.
sentative of the United States govern
ment on that occasion. Next to the
United States, the strongest supporters
of bimetallism are the French, and
think the recent action of the Bank OF
England, which has given rise to much
discussion, was the outcome of diplo.
matte representations made by the
French. I believe we have not done as
much for the cause in two or three
years as the Bank Of England has done
at one stroke"

RIOT AMONG POLES
Nine Killed and a Large Number
Injured in a Fight at Girard-
vile, Pa.

G1RARDvILLE, Pa, Sept. 29.-At least
nine men received fatal injuries and
possibly two score others were more OF
less seriously wounded in a bloody riot
here during the night and early morn.
ing. The battle was the outcome of a
quarrel over the Hazleton troubles.
Thirty.six men are known to have been
wounded and about 80 more are being
secreted by their friends, who fear that
they will be sent to Jail. DR.. Charles
Schlesman attended % of the wounded,
of whom he says will die. Doctors
Monaghan and Donahue attended Ii
others, and how many other physicians
cared for is not known. Three other
men have been reported dead, but this
cannot be verified yet ON account of the
uncommunicative nature of the partici-
pants.
The Story of the Riot.
Several hundrd Polanders board at
William Culacabbage's hotel OH Second
street. Joseph Cavendish is proprietor
of hotel at the east end of town, where
several hundred more Polanders make
their headquarters. Bad blood has ex-
listed between them for long time and
the recent strike troubles at Hazleton
embittered them still more. Finally
matters came to crisis. Culacabbage
and his followers to the number Of sew
eral hundred, arming themselves with
guns, revovlers, knives, axes and clubs,
marched to Cavendish's hotel, where
several hundred of their enemies were
celebrating pay day.
The Cavendish men ascertained that
their foes were marching on them, and,
arming themselves hurriedly, awaited
their arrival. After demonstrative
march the Culacabbage contingent ar.
rived and Immediately stormed the
saloon.
First Engagement Lasted an Hour.
Then a bloody battle ensued. The
men fought like demons, the shooting
was fast and furious, and axes, knives
clubs and other weapons We're used
with deadly effect. The battle lasted
almost an hour, when the Culacabbage
gang was routed, leaving their wounded
behind. Everything in the house was
smashed and the floors were strewn
with wounded men.
After the routed rioters had returned
to their headquarters the Cavendish
gang armed themselves to the teeth and
marched to the enemy's rendezvous,
where battle still bloodier than the
first ensued. The police and constables
of the surrounding region We're called
to the scene, but were unable to cope
with the rioting horde, who continued
hostilities until morning.
The town people did not sleep wink
all night. and, while they watched the
progress of the fight during the night,
they made no attempt to interfere.

POSSIBLE PERJURY PROSECUTIONS

Witnesses in the Luetgert Trial Accused
of Swearing Falsely.
CHICAGO, Sept. 29.-Intimations that
perjury had been committed by wit.
nesses for the defense in the Luetgert
murder trial were heard around the
criminal court building, coupled with
suggestion of grand jury investiga-
ton. 1t was said that the prosecution
seriously contemplated seeking the in
dictment Of Mary Siemmering before
the grand jury now in session. During
the time Mary SiemmeriMg was on the
witness stand she was questioned
sharply by Assistant States Attorney
McEwen relative to her testimony be.

Luetgert. She admi sted that her story
before that bcdy,as well as evidence she
gave before Justice KeYten, who held
Luetgert for trial, was different in mate.
rial points to the evidence she gave
at the present trial. Her explanation
of the discrepancy waS that Inspector
Setback had threatened her when she
appeared before the grand jury, telling
her that if she did net testify against
Luetgert she would lie punished.
Inspector Schaack denounces this
statement as utterly false. During her
story Of what took place i'll the East
Chicago avenue police station after her
arrest, she related incidents III which
Assistant States Attorney McEwen' &

ton aroused the blood of that official,
