A Steer Runs Wild.

Baltimore. Aug. ga steer without
horns, supposed to have escaped from one
of the Light Street wharves. created ter
ror in East Baltimore yesterday after
noon. The animal soon became terror
stricken from some unknown cause, and
cavorted about the streets in way that
was dangerous to pedestrians. On Bond
Street, between Fairmount Avenue and
Fayette Street, the steer made a charge
upon Mrs. Minnie Greener, and knocked
her down. She escaped without serious
injury. The steer next attacked Joseph
II. Elliott, on Dallas Street, between
Eastern Avenue and Bank Street, and in
jured him slightly on the right side and
right leg. A man on Spring Street, who
was trying to make himself secure by
running into a 3-feot alley, was given a
punch by the infuriated animal and
knocked several feet up the alley The
animal was finally subdued and captured
in the neighborhood of Eden and Pratt
Streets and taken back to Light Street.

ROOSEVELT IN THE LEAD.
Western New York Republicans Fa-
yor His Nomination.

Buffalo, N V Aug 2i-Sentiment IA
vorabIe to the nomination by the Re
publican State convention Of Col. Theo-
doFe Roosevelt is growing rapidly in this
city and throughout Erie county.
Among the ffty-five delegates from
Erie to the State convention there are
twenty-one who state in interviews that
they are for the Rough Rider The anti
Black sentiment is particularly strong in
the Thirty-seeond Congressional district.
where Senator Simon Seibert has stated
that he would not care 10 run this fail
if Black heads the ticket
A number of those not seen are quot
ed by their friends as being solid for
Roosevelt. or at least solid against
Black. but these expressions of a dsle-
gates attitude have not been counted
as defining his opinions or preferences.
The Roosevelt sentiment will be manifest
strongly today and tomorrow when the
delegates meet Many Of the delegates
said personally yesterday that they in
tended to state their preferences frankly
and advise against any plans to secure
strength for Gov. Black Nothing short
of a deliberate sitting of the Roosevelt
sentiment can prevent his nomination
apparently.
Even Black men who were expected to
stand by him nominaIIy. at least. yester-
day said they would be just as well sat
isfied with Roosevelt.
