Detective Gross said that he had dis

declared, are the railroad companies,

A movement has also been started on

WAR ON THE BORDER

Trouble Feared.

Bisbee, AIiz., Sept 11.-Saturday
afternoon a shooting scrape occurred
at Naco, nine miles from here, the re-
suits from which may bring on seri-

Cling horses, by Mexican guards and
was being taken to Nogales for trial.
While at .Naco a cowboy named Bob
Clayton asked permission to go with
Heron to Ncgales. Tie guards as
scented, but told Clayton he would
have to disarm himself.
In the meantime Clayton took sew
eral drinks and when the guards asked
him to give up his gun he refused, and
pulling it, began shooting. The
guards, seven in number, returned the
fire, and two other cowboys, one
named Franco and the other name un-
known, came to Claytorrs rescue.
Clayton received a bullet from a Win
chester through his stomach, from the
effects of which he died here last
night
Captain Molina of the guards was
wounC3d twice, one bullet passing
through his right thigh and another
through the arm. Franco was arrest

Naco, while the other cowboy escaped
and is n1lw ci1 American SOIL An hour
and a half later three guards who
had started to Nogales with Heron
were over taken near the San Pedro
custom house by four American cow
boys, who opened fire, killing one
guard and wounding another, the
third escaping. The cowboys then re-
turned tc this side of the line, being
pursued by the other guards. Heron
refused to return with the cowboys
and continued to Nogales, giving him
self up.
Heron decided to face the charge OF
smuggling rather than risk being
taken by officers here who El-ld a war

the Oklahoma penitentiary after being
sentenced for twenty-five years for

MLEAN's GREAT AMBITIONS.
He Is After the Presidency and May
Sidetrack Bryan.

Columbus, o., Sept. 1.-THE tri-
considerable comment lby both demo-
cratic and republican leaders as to the
part. he may play in the next presf-
Dental contest. The politicians gen
orally say that the gubernactrial can
didacy of Mclean means trouble for
Bryan in 1900. All of the gold demo-
Gratis in this state who in 1896 opposed
the election of Bryan and who are
still opposed to his denomination are
in favor CT Mclean. 1t is also said
that Mclean is actively allied with
Croker, Van Wyck and German to
sideurack Bryan next year with
platform on the money question,
which while it will approve of the free
coinage of gold and silver will be
silent on the question of ratio.
One of the most active opponents
of Mclean at GAINESVILLE is outspoken
in his opinion on this subject. He said:
q have the best means of knowing
Mclean in this scheme, and my oppo-
sition to him was based upon the
ground that, if elected governor of
Ohio this fall, he would actively op-
pose the nomination OF Bryan at the
national convention in 1900. There is
only one prominent gold democrat in
Ohio, with the single exception of j.
H Cultivate, who is not in favor Of.
Mclean for governor. This is very

NO FIGHTING IN KHoRAssAN.
Report of a Battle With the Ameer's

Bombay, Sept. 11.-Litt1e credence

Of Benjdeh, Turkoman camp in
Khorassan, between Sirdar Mahomed

1t seems impossible that Ismail Khan
could be near Penjdeh, which is only
130 miles north of Herat, without Rus

certainly have addressed the Indian

of this nature had occurred.

The AMERICAN CONGRESS
HsY Recall That PART of The ApprO-
priafion Not Expended-The In
fernaiionaI Aspect of Such an
Hction- Private and municipal
Exhibitors of Germany and Eng
land Threaten Withdrawal.

Washington, Sept. lit is Believed
that when congress assembled there
will be considerable agitation CT a
proposition for this government to
abandon it's participation in the Paris
exposition. 1t is known that express
sions hostile to the exposition quoted
from Senator Stewart are very widely
sympathized in and it is thought that
if the conviction of Dreyfus is permit
ted to stand there will be very little
friendly feeling for France among the
members of either the house or the
senate
Such a move, hcwever, would be a
grave one. 1t is pointed out that to
withdraw from participation in the
exposition would be regarded as an
official insult to France. No further
legislation on the part of congress is
needed to carry cut the plans of this
country for the exposition. About
100000 has been appropriated for the
expenses of the commission and the
government exhibit The commission
has been appointed and the space de-
sired for exhibits from this country
has been secured.
There are new only two ways in
which congress could Interfere One
would be to revoke such part of the
appropriation as has not been already
expended in the expenses of the COM
mission and the other would be to pass
a resolution declaring that on ac-
count of the unsettled conditions the |
valuable government exhibits should |
not be sent to Paris.
To do either of these things would !
be sufficient, it is believed, to break off |
all friendly relations between the two |
countries. Congress and the state de-
partment may look at the matter /
from different points cf view. The |
president and the state department |
having the responsibility for maintain
ing our relations with foreign govern
ments cannot be expected to find in
this affair reason for involving the
country in an international complica-
ton, and it is likely that the executive
branch of the government will use
what influence it can to prevent hasty
action.

ers of Genarl Mare Gray were
seething with rage. To their
view it was certain that Ar
baces was no better than second. Most
of the spectators thought the judges
had made a mistake, but they forgot
that Col. Simmons has been judging
races ever since Cain killed Abel, and
that Lieutenant Col. Mcdowell put up
the numbers on the first track laid
out by MeIchizedek on the plains of
ancient Mesopotamia. After an un-
broken experience Gf so many CEN
turies, the colonel and the lieutenant
colonel could not have erred in award
ing first money to Arbaces.

PRIVATE GERMAN HOSTILITY.

Berlin, Sept. 1.-THE private agita-

Vossiche Zeitung says this evening
that number of the largest German
firms have pledged themselves to
withdraw. The Berliner Tageblatt
says the Berlin council at it's next ses-
sian win consider special resolutions
to withdraw the Berlin municipal ex-
hibit. On the other hand the cor
respondent of the Associated Press
learns on the highest authority that
the German government considers the
Dreyfus case done with and does not
intend to relinquish official representa-
tion at the exposition.
