SENGERS
Nobody Is Hurt, but the Car Is
Thrown Across the Track and All

Is Getting More Serious.

DULUTH, Mimi, May 9.-(SpeciaL)-
The worst act of the present street car
strike occurred here tonight, in the dyna-
niting of street car, and probably moth
ing but the slow rate at which the car
was travelling saved somebody serious
injury or probably death.
The dynamiting took place between
Twenty-third and Twenty-fourth avenues
west. The car was bound for West Du-
luth and had on board ten passenge ers.
two of them women. On the way out the
car like all other cars, was stopped sew
eral times by obstructions placed on the
track, but when the place mentioned was
reached there was an explosion under the
front part of the car, and the car was
lifted into the ai0 and thrown across the
tracks. 1t was found that both front
wheels of the car were broken, and the
front part of the car was rather badly
wrecked. Almost every window In the
car was blown out and the pavement and
the rails were thrown out of place.
The twenty police that have been sworn
in do not seem to do any good, as tonight
there have been more Instructions placed
on the track than at any other time. The
mob is more persistent in harassing the
street car company than ever, and more
trouble is looked for.
The governor may be asked to order
the sheriff out with a crowd of deputies.
as the police seem unable to protect the
company's property.

is for the dollar before the man. That
time has come. Since 1896 the Republicans
have openly eSpoused the cause of the
gold standard and the money trust. The
Democrats are now, as in 1896, opposed to
both. Since 1896 $1,000, 100000 of corporate
capital have been combined in Industrial
trusts. The Democrats have always
fought this principle when 1t was called
protection, and will continue to fight 1t
under its new name, and in dts new form.
''Since 1896 the Republicans have discov-
cred the need for standing army of
100 900 men. The Democrats now, as ever,
think that in a nation dedicated to free
dom, an army is only needed to repel in
vasion, never to subjugate peaceable peo-
pie. Since 1896 the Republicans have de-
Veloped a so-called colonial policy, which
will precipitate upon us race problems
and international alliances, and complica-
tions heretofore undreamed of. The DEM
ocrats think we have race problems
enough to solve at home, and are against
any scheme of European alliance or Asia
tic ENHANCEMENT, which can only disturb
the friendly relations, always our policy
with all nations. Since 1896 the Republi-
cans have purchased the right to sub
jugate a people who have fought longer
for their freedom than we did for ours
The Democrats insist that this nation can
have no business in the Philippines ex-
cept to make both them and their people
free, and protect them in their freedom.
OF, BY AND FOR THE DOLLAR.
1.-THE Republicans are now, as ever, for
a government by the dollar, of the dollar,
and for the dollar; have the same old
Hamiltonian contempt for the common
people, and love for centralized govern
ment backed by bayonets, and the same
old Tory subserviency to England to the
exclusion of the rest of the world. The
Democrats are for a government of, for
and by the people. for the observance of
the spirit of the Monroe doctrine by our
selves as well as for it's enforcement
against others, for the extension of our
principles by example, and not by
bayonets, and for a continuation Of our
government on the lines laid down by
Washington, Jefferson and Jackson.
These are living, burning issues and the
voters will have opportunity to line up on
them in 1900, and no man having within
him spark of true Democracy will have
any difficulty in finding his place when
the battle is set in array. If, on these
issues, he wavers, his place is certainly
not with u.s.

MANILA, April 2 (via San Francisco,
May 9).-Instances of personal bravery
have been quite as numerous In the
American army in the Philippines as dur
Ing the Cuban campaign, but the corre-
spondentS have not had the same oppor-
tunity to chronicle these deeds Of daring
in the Orient because of the thickness of
the country penetrated. Many heroic acts
also were unheard of for days after their
occurrence.
One soldier who has we'll Illustrated the
quality of the Americans is Capt. Charles
Clay of the Seventeenth infantry. Capt.
Clay is native Of Lexington, KY, and
grandson of Henry Clay. He brought new
honor to the family name in Cuba, where,
during the hottest action of the Santiago
field, when his men were lying behind
cover for shelter from a shower Of bull
let's. he marched back and forth in front
of his company, as erect and cool as
though on dress parade, nor would he
yield to the appeals of the men that he
find shelter

bullet through the neck. He lay six hours
in the jungle before he was discovered,
and, as the wound was a dangerous one
at best, his life was despaired of. His
only thought, when he was brought into
the hospital was that his family should
be informed that he was but slightly in
jured. He is now, however, we'll on the
road to complete recovery.
Among those officers who have fallen
no one will be longer or more loyalty re-

Gregg, Of the Fourth infantry. No man
In the army had more than he to make
life worth living-friends, success in his
profession, vitality and physical strength
that made him the inapersonation of ath-

confidence in his powers contributed to
his death. In the beginning of the hot

that time the senior captain of the regi-
ment, the junior major, and the resigna-
ton of Gen. Reeve advanced him another
grade and made him the second in rank
among the battalion commanders
Maj. Diggles has the reputation Of being
an efficient and popular officer, and his
conduct since the regiment was ordered
to the front has been conspicuous for
bravery. The press reports have several
times spoken of him as always being on
the firing line whenever an engagement
was going on, and his wound is probably
the result of his exposure and disregard
of personal danger.

Mrs. Davis Is Planning to Suitably

WASHINGTON, y. c., May 9.-(Spe-
cial.)-Minnesotans who will visit Wash
lngton during the peace jubilee will have
the pleasure of attending regular old
time Minnesota house warming at the
splendid new home of Mrs. Senator Cusb-
man K. Davis. Some time ago Mrs. Da-
Wis realized that her home, 1922 Massa-
cnusetts avenue, was not sufficiently
large to admit of her entertaining as she
wished and as her position demanded.
She determined to secure larger and more
convenient house which she was fortu-
nate enough to find in the large mansion
occupied by the late Senator Stamford
and other noted men. This mansion is
NO. 17O3 K street, in the heart of a fash
ionable residence section of the CITY. and
is one Of the most conveniently arranged
in Washington. Within it's walls have
been some notable gatherings, and after
being unoccupied for quite a long time.
society and pleasure-loving people, not
only of the national capital, but from
the states, will soon have the pleasure
of enjoying the splendid hospitality of
Mrs. Davis, whose receptions, ''at
homes" card parties, etc., have given
her reputation that is national.
Few ladies in official and social life in
Washington have entertained on such ex-
tensive and elaborate lines as has Mrs.
Davis, and in her new home she will be
In position to maintain the reserved
praise she has won for herself and Sena-
tor Davis and Minnesota. No lady in
Washington has ever taken the same deep
interest in looking after the pleasure and
interest of the people of her state. and
she is never happier than when planning
and carrying into effect some entertain
ment for people of Minnesota who may
be visiting Washington. With the
thought of her home people uppermost in
her mind she determined to have every
thing in readiness for the house warm
ing during peace jubilee. to which her
special guests will be Minnesotans, and
while she has announced that she is sat
isfed that her time is limited and that
it will require great effort to have the
house in readiness for the occasion this
house warming will come off according
to her intention.
At present Mrs. Davis has not formu-
lated any specially prepared programme
for the entertainment of her home peo-
pie, but there can be no doubt but what
ha mill ha r1yhf
guest will cherish and remember.

Captured by Newspapers Man.

Captured by Newspapers Man.
SANTIAGO, DE CUBA, May 9.-Mau-
rice Baldwin, an American newspaper
correspondent, and three Cuban compan-
ions, were attacked yesterday near Bay
amo by seven bandits. Mr.. Baldwin made
a feint as though soldiers were approach
ing and so distracted the attention of
the bandits. Then he and his companions
quickly covered the bandits and ordered
them to drop their arms. One of the
bandits resisting was wounded in the leg.
The entire party of seven were captured
and turned over to the gendarmes.
Mr.. Baldwin and his party are highly
commended Two of the captured ban
dts have been recognized as recent en-
ployes of the government, who were dis
charged on account of the stopping OF
work on the highway.
