Chicago. Jan. 25.-Eugene v. Debs has
issued a passionate plea to the public
TO interfere and save the life of Salter
T. Worden, condemned to die on the
gallows for the crime of train-wreck-
ing. Worden was convicted at Sacra-
mento Cal. in 1894. and Governor Budd
has refused to do anything in his be-
half The wrecking occurred on the
Southern Pacific railroad during the
heat of the American Railway union
strike. In his plea given to the press
Mr.. Debs asserts that Worden Is the
victim of conspiracy concocted and
carried out by detectives in the employ
of the railroad company, and at the
worst the condemned man was but a
tool in their hands
At that time Worden was one OF the
local leaders In the strike. and Debs
declares that the alleged conspiracy
was formed for the purpose OF turning
public sentiment against ythe strikers
and bringing. defeat upon them The

and that he must know that the South

THAT ROW IN THE DEPUTIES.
Scene of Fighting That Has Never Been
Equalled.

Paris, Jan. 25.-During the disturb
ance In the chamber of deputies the
scene of fighting around the tribune
was unparalleled. Comte De Bernis Is
a retired cavalry officer and has the
rough manners OF the bull-hghting
town of Mines. where he will be can
didate at the next elections. M. Jaures
Is thick-set, fiorid and hairy. M. Ger
ault Richard is Withholding. The lat
ter was hustled and knocked about like
a football in his attempt to deal Comte
De Bernis a blow. Some eighty depu-
ties were in the fight. Coats were torn
10 tatters and cravats were seized In
the attempts 10 choke an opponent.
During a lull in the fight M. Gerault
Richard was seen in tatters, his cravat
torn off and his shirt front torn open.
while his sympathizers were patting
him on the back.
Suddenly Comte De Bernis bounded
up the stairs of the tribune on all fours
like an animal, dealt Nj. Jaures heavy
blow on the back Of the head and
kicked him on the legs. Mr.. Jaures
was knocked over and stumbled down
the steps. Picking himself up. he saw
crowd of deputies. while the remainder
of the house hooted him. crying Cow

knotted handkerchief after h4m. Comte
De Bernis seemed paralyzed and the
house cheered NJ. Jaures, while body
of Socialists made another rush at

OHlOANS STILL IN THE WAY.
Success of the Interstate Mining Conf

ence Depends Upon Them.
Chicago. Jan. 24-The second week OF
the Interstate mining conference began
without any one being able to forecast
the outcome. There are two important
questions that are credited with being
in the way of a satisfactory ending OF
the conference. and IL they can be ad-
justed, success will follow. These are
the mine run issue and the differentiai
between Ohio and Pennsylvania. The
miners are solid for mine run. and
are backed by the Illinois operators.
Pennsylvania operators will not stand
in the way Of accepting mine run. and
Indiana will favor ii il the operators
in the Ohio thin vein fields will do like
wise
According to this the fight has mar
rowed down to Ohio. III. L Chapman
of that state says that the operators
he represents will not accept mine run.
IL the conference is a failure the blame
will be thrown upon Chapman and his
hackers, IL Is said. The motion made
by the Ohio man that 10-cent Increase
be granted the miners was defeated, be-
cause he made conditions that could not
be followed The motion was referred
to as a a grandstand play. Illinois op-
orators will stick to mine run as long
as the Illinois miners request It,
The adoption Of universal eight
hour day by the convention may result
in no good IL the conference breaks up
without making any further agree
ments. In that event the miners will
make their own scale and force 1t upon
the contractors. This would include

abolishing of the differential between

ton may break up at any moment or

A. the situation There Grows Calmer II Ii

New York, Jan. 25-A dispatch to The
Herald from Madrid says: The attacks
In the house at Washington have pro-
duced a feeling here which. perhaps. Is
scarcely justified-pointing toward the
fixed purpose of a certain section OF
American politicians to insist on war
with Spain The government itself 10
disturbed and the press Is full Of the
subject.
The impartial says: 'In proportion
as the accounts from Cuba are favora-
BILE in Spain they become less so from
the United States. 1t would be difficult
TO believe that the United States pro-
poses to undertake in the face OF the
whole civilized world the enormous re-
sponsibility of provoking war for which
no reason exists today. Why allege the
only motive for intervention the pro-
longation of contest which 10 princi'

tions starting from North American
ports and maintained by hopes. fostered

attack upon Spain It Is cold d-blooded

science"

Washington. Jan. 25-There is rea-

OF the United States will support Great
Britain in her efforts to keep China

The only active steps which the admin

with Germany respecting the treatment
of American ships entering Kiao Chou
and such other ports in China as may
be seized in the future by Russia or

on the condition that IL shall be opened
by Germany as Chinese port. then II
will not be necessary for the president
to take the steps in the matter said an
official of the administration. 1t will
mean that the commerce of all nations
will be allowed unrestricted entry
thereto.

should be leased to Germany without
conditions, then Germany will have the
right and will undoubtedly exercise Ii
