BRITISH CABINET NAY RESIGN


New York. Oct. IA dispatch to the
Herald from Paris says: THE Herald
is informed from a trustworthy source
that the answer which the Indian gov
eminent has forwarded to the British
cabinet declining to reopen its mints
under an agreement with France and
the United States, is causing consid-
cradle difficulty in English govern
ment circles.
"A majority OF the cabinet is dis
inclined to override the opinion of It's
Indian advisers on question which
principally affects India, but several
members of the cabinet feel that the
government Is too far committed to
withdraw. At the present moment IL
is impossible to foretell the outcome Of
the differences Of opinion, but the res
ignation Of all the influential cabinet
ministers is not improbable
Meanwhile, 1t is interesting to know
that the refusal Of Indin is based on
her obligation to the ratio Of 15h to l.
Indian statesmen foresee the greatest
difficulties arising out of sudden jump
in the price of silver to 60, which, II is
feared, would reVolutlonize the COM
mercial relations and lead to the ruin
of the many merchants engaged in
trade with Asia. on "A basis more near
iy corresponding with the present price
Of silver, for instance, on n basis OF
15Ad. per rupee, that Is to say i2d. per

sails -

Police Practically Powcrlcss for while
Casualties Include BROKEN Heads
and Broken Limbs.

Indianapolis, Ind, oct. 1.-THE city
was startled and the police We're kept
busy for an hour last evening by a
wild riot Of newsboys ON race lines.
Hundreds Of urchins broke loose on
the downtown streets, about s
O'Clock, whoopinE like Indians and
occasionally coming together and
fighting in opposing squads like de-
mons. The trouble started in
"Newsies alley" upon which the
mailing rooms of the three leading
dailles front, in a row between the
negro and white boys. At dusk a
fighting organization of Irish lads
formed near the Park theater, and
about the same time the negro boys
assembled north of the state house.
The police were informed of the as
scmbly and sent patrol wagons to the
scene to dispense them. They only
succeeded in breaking them up into
squads and these led them a wild
chase through the streets and alleys
first one gang IN pursuit ard then an
other. There were frequent collisions
of detachments of the opposing
armies, and fists. clubs and stones
We're freely used The police sue
ceeded in capturing several of the
leaders ON both sides, but 1t was 9
o'clock before quiet was restored upon
the streets Three of the white boys
had broken heads. one Of them named
John DOnohue being severely hurt.
one negro boy suffered from a broken
arm, another from broken leg and
several of them had flesh wounds.
