has been learned.
Officer Proctor has not been heard of
since he left his home last Monday and
started south via the Southern Railway
track. A party of friends started in
quest OF him yesterday, but after long
search returned home not having been
able to gain the slightest trace of him.
II is said that some letters which were
addressed to him and which have been
turned over to his family explain in a
measure his disappearance. So far as
his position OF the police force is con-
cerned, the Mayor states that it is still
held open for him, but that he will, of
course, be compelled to give al &C.
count OF his actions in absentipg him
self from the city without permission.
Young Johnson, who, it was stated,
had vanished from the city, is home

no explanation of MS action.
The report circulated to the effect
that Mr.. Bernard Crook had suddenly

FOR REVENGE
The Spaniards Would Leave Cuba a
Cemetery.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-Senor Que
sada, Of the Cuban legation, speaking
today of General Gomez's appeal for
aid for his starving army, said that he
believed the Spaniard were prolonging
their stay in Cuba and opposing the
free entry of supplies for the purpose
of revenge. He said:
'The suffering in the provinces is
reported to be intense. The members
of the revolutionary army nave killed
their horses and pack animals for food
and are without money to purchase
the necessities of life. The fear of the
leading Cubans is that in the last ex-
treme of despair the suffering soldiers
of the Cuban forces will cause trouble.
"You can readily see what the
plan of the Spanish is. Cuba is lost TO
Spain and before taking her exit she is
anxious to leave the island cemetery
as revenge"

UNDER BRITISH FLAG
Goes a Chinese Reformer CHARGED
With Treason

LONDON, Sept pa dispatch
Shanghai says that Kang WI Wei. the
Cetonese reformer whose ar
rest was ordered upon a
charge of conspiracy against the
dowager empress, will sail on board the
mail steamer Ballarat this evening for
Hong Kong. 1t is probable the steam
er will be conveyed by British war
ships to prevent the Chinese from cap
turing him. The charges against him
are those of high treason and plotting
against the dowager empress.
The leaders of the reform party are
appealing to the English for help and
are anxiously seeking assistance other
wise to combat the intrigues of the
dowager empress and Lii Hung Chang,
who are acting entirely in the interest
of Russia.

The Tailors' Meetlnu.

The HERALD reporter yesterday,
hearing so much on the streets con-
cerning the tsilors' strike, asked per-
mission to attend their meeting. This
request was granted and in the course
of an interview the reporter came into
possession of the following facts:
'Do you think this cheap line of pro-
gram advertising. will iDiure your
striKe?" was asked.
1--WE believe not.'
Chow is Mr.. Brunner acting in this
matter?"
He is misrepresenting the conditions
in saying that the strike is settled
when this is not fact. There is no
change in the situation whatever, and
when there is it will be published in
the papers of Ell Paso or by the
distribution OF circulars. Mr.. Brunner
says he is paying union prices for the
making of clothes. If this is q fact
why did he not do this before? If this
not done to defeat our purpose? There
Is not q union man employed by Mr..
Drummer at present. They are all
scabs. We dislike this newspaper dis
cussion, but it has all been brought on by
Mr.. Brunner and he is alone to blame.
He has stated that all the union tsilors
had gone back to work, which is untrue.
We are out on this strike on an honest
purpose and propose to fight it to the
bitter end, and we kindly ask all labor
ing men of Ell Paso to assist us in
accomplishing our purpose. All we
have asked is fair wages and that we
propose to get if the lsboring men will
only stay with us in this fight. We are
using all honorable means to bring the
strike to close and as far as we are
concerned the strike should come to
close at an early date"

Is Threatened With a Split.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26. The strong
undercurrent of dissatisfaction among
professional cycle racers over the man.
ner in which racing affairs have been
conducted by the L. A. w. promises to
culminate shortly in secession move
ment which will challenge the atten-
tion of the wheeling world. Prominent
among the leaders of the movement are
Arthur Gardiner, Tom Cooper, Eddie
Bald, major" Taylor and other we'll
known professionals who are of the
opinion that the league has fagran tly
disregarded their rights and privi-
leges without cause. The most of these
are gathered at Trenton in attendance
on the national meet in progress in
that city and it is probable that the
first decisive steps toward secession
from the league will be taken at con-
ference called for tonight. At this
meeting committee of three will be
appointed who will set as representa-
tives of the racing men in a conference
to be held With the track owners of
the country, in order to bring about
new raciug organization.
TRENTON, n. j., Sept. 26.-At Tren-
ton house this morning a number of
crack professional racing men met and
organized the American Racing Cy-
clist Union. Eddie Bald presided and
F. E. Spooner was elected secre-
tsry. The following execu-
tive board was appointed:

TEDDY WILL WIN
In the Nominating Convention.

SARATOGA, N. y, Sept. 26.-The re-
| publican state convention to be held
here tomorrow promises to be among
the most interesting ever held in the
common wealth, and this notwithstsnd-
ing the fact that the
head OF the ticket will be
nominated practically without
contest. The majority of the del
egates are here for the preliminary
skirmish in the district meetings.
Theodore Roosevelt and his political
lieutenants have demoralized
the Black forces almost a.
completely as the daring COM
mander of the Rough Riders
scattered the Spaniards in the fighting
before Santiago With little to inter-
est them in the matter of the guberna-
torial nomination, the attention of the
delegates naturally turns to the dis
cussiou of the platform. A majority
favor making the nation
al administration foreign policy
the central plank of the
platform and conducting the campaign
on war issues aud the future of the
United States as regards colonial pos
sessions. The temporary organization
OF the convention will be decided upon
at meeting of the state central COM
mittee to be held al the United States
Hotel tonight.
The Black men, Platt men, and Roose-
velt boomers are getting together
today, and shaking hands over ex-
ploded mines. Rumors of war to the
knife and threats of concealed cards
are heard no more. The talk is of
peace and the drift of events here is in
the direction of harmony.
The convention may be love feast
and if there is any bitterness over the
results it will not be serious enough to
lose vote for the republican ticket.
Blacks friends early this morning pro-
nounced his fight hopeless. They did
q ot wait for the arrival of .the COVER
nor to announce that there is to be no
light on Roosevelt in the conven-
lion.
