TWO EDITORS SHOT.
SENSATIONAL TRAGEDY AT
DENVER.
". ". Anderson, Lawyer, shoots BON
ais and Tamnsn Owners of the Post
Bonfils May DIE.

Denver, Jan. 15.-The Rocky Noun
tain News says: Frederick G. Bonfils
and Harry II. Tammen, proprietors Of
the Post, We're shot Saturday by At
torney w. w. Anderson. The affair
occurred about 11:45 o'clock in the
private office Of the paper. Mr.. Bon-
Ills condition is serious. No fear is
expressed for Mr.. Tammen unless COM
plications should ensue. Attorney An
derson was placed under arrest, but
was released. Bond was fixed at
$4,000.
The shooting was the result Of an al
tercation regarding the conduct Of Mr..
Anderson in connection with the
Packer case. Attorney Anderson was
accused OF questionable transactions
and blows followed. Then came four
shots. The attorney walked from the
room. Tammen and Bonfils were ly-
ing on the floor and Polly Pry, the 9TH
er occupant Of the apartment, was try
ing to help the injured men.
Tammen was shot in the shoulder
and through the left wrist. Bonfils
received one bullet in the left breast.
1t tore around rib and stopped in the
middle Of the left side, whence 1t was
removed by the doctor. Another ball
entered the left side of the neck and
cut downward and backward, lodging
In position whence it could be fol-
lowed by probing only at great risk. 1t
is supposed to be in the back, just be-
hind the left lung. Whether it will be
cut for or not depends entirely upon
symptoms of trouble arising from its
location.
1t is asserted that Anderson pro-
cured $25 from Packer, the man
eater" in the penitentiary at Canon
City, representing himself to be a
stakeholder and director of the Post.
For this he was taken to task by the
proprictors of the paper.
Warden Hoyt of the state peniten-
tiary said to n News reporter last
night that Anderson had long talk
with Packer at the penitentiary last
Wednesday and obtained $25 from
Packer toward payment for services in
endeavoring to get him released from
imprisonment. The warden was in
and out of the Office during the CONVEX
sation between the two men, but heard
little of 1t.
Yesterday Packer told Warden Hoyt
that Anderson distinctly claimed to be
n stockholder of the Post and that he
thinks Anderson claimed also to be
director of the Post company
The stories of the shooting as told
by the persons in the room differ wide
ly.
Anderson claimed that he was beaten
by Tammen and Bonfils and then shot
them. 1t is certain that he was struck
in the face several times. Tnmmen
states that Anderson was the ag-
gressor.

r.u to Conquer tn. Y.qu,..

Ortiz, Mexico, Jan. 15-Small bands
Of Yaqui Indians have become very
annoying to the Mexican troops during
the last few days, and frequent skir-
misfles have occurred. A few nights
ago 100 Indians boldly rode into the
corral and stampeded over 200 horses
belonging to the troops. The Indians
afterward captured the animals for
their own use. 1t is almost impossible
to get supplies to the troops, owing to
ine Yaqui's guerrilla tactics. General
Torres men are living on the country,
and there are times when they must
suffer severely for lack of food. Amer
leans who have come from the Yauui
country say the troops have made no
headway toward putting down the re-
bellion.

British Release American Goods.

Washington, Jan. 15.-Secretary of

British government had released the
American goods on the Dutch vessel

ident and Congressman.

looking to the organization of a ma
tional negro party have been taken in
this city. Prominent negroes-bishops,

gressional offices.
An executive committee has been ap
pointed to draw up a call for a conven-
tion and distribute circulars outlining
the reasons for the formation of ma
tiOnal negro party.
Bishop Levi J. Cappin, the newly
elected head Of the A. NJ. F. church in
this district, presided at the meeting.

AT A STANDSTTLL.
st. Louis Strike Presents No New
Developments.

St. Louis, June 6.-There is no change
today in the street railway strike stu
alton. negotiations between the strikers
and the Transit company are at a stand
still. The posse comitatus is constantly
growing in numbers. Sheriff Pohlman
now has nearly 1,2O0 special deputies
under arms and before night expects to
increase that number to 1,500.
City Counselor Sehnurmacher has
delivered an opinion that the municipal
assembly has the right and power o
repeal any franchise or grant made by
it since the present city charter went
into effect providing it is a self-evident
fact that the holder of the special priv
ilegC has neglected to carry out the OBJ
legations assumed. Bills are pending IN
both branches of the municipal assem-
bly, to revoke the Transit ompany's s
ing to schedule.
One line in addition to those in oper-
alton yesterday is running cars today

General Manager Faumhoff, of the
transit company said today:
mo sane man would think of operat-
ing street cars in st. Louis at night
/ while conditions remain as they are.
4 am very anxious to run cars after
dark, but I feel that in doing so, l
would be jeopardizing the lives of the
company's employees and passengers.
4 believe the public realizes that on
several divisions it would be unsafe for
/ passengers to ride on the cars at night
AS soon as it is possible to do so
without risking lives and without en-
/ cOuntering wire cutters we will operate
/ all of our lines after dark"

were those placing under the supervis-
ion of the secretary of the treasury the
execution of the Chinese exclusion and
immigration laws, gauging water sup
ply of certain streams $100, 900; proVid-
ing plans for the enlargement of the
White House and development Of sur
rounding grounds; appropriating $25,-
900 for outer pass of the Mississippi riv-
er. providing for the settlement of
Spanish war claims arising from mill
tary use and occupation. The Mis-
sissippi, Missouri and Columbia river
items were retained, the Mississippi
item. for the lower river, being reduced
to $2,250 600. The provision as to state
claims was compromised by an amend
ment that certain federal claims against
these states would not be prosecuted
The forest reserve provision was
amended that lien land selections shall
hereafter be made from surveyed lands.
Mr.. Cannon explained that the Senat
had added about S., ,000, 900 to the orig
inal s61 900 600 of this biz and that by
this report the senate yielded about
81 100000 and the house $4,00000o-
Considerable debate followed on the
various items The sundry civil con-
ference report was agreed to and on the
one item, still open, appropriating 1892
600 for claims of Nevada, Mr.. Newlands
of Nevada moved that the house concur
with the senate amendment. This
brought on a short debate on state
claims, Mr.. Moody (Mass.) urging that
the Nevada claim would set prece-
dent for other like claims aggregating
about $4,000, 900. The approach of the
closing hours of congress began to be
manifested as the morning were on. The
galleries filled and floral gifts began to
come in for members. Mr.. Heatwole
was particularly honOred with a huge
rose bush in full bloom.
Mr.. Moody contended that the pay
ment of Nevada's claim would estab-
lish a dangerous precedent. It was for
extra pay given to Nevada's soldiers
during the civil war. California, if this
claim We're paid. would have a valid
claim for 81, GOO. 900 and Oregon for near
ly half a, million.
Mr.. Newlands motion to concur in
the senate amendment was lost-45 to
81. The house further insisted on the
amendment and the bill was sent back
! to conference.
The house passed a few bills OF minor
| Importance during the afternoon by
unanimous consent Many requests fol
! unanimous consent were preferred, but
Mr.. Lentz (O.) objected on the ground
that his personal rights Were being
invaded by the refusal of the majority
to allow the printing of the Coeul
d'Alene testimony. The house spent
most of the time in recess.

State has good system of public
schools in which the elements of a
sound education are impaired, and the
University of Virginia, an integrant
part of the system, and as such free
to Virginians' in tn academic schools
affords to every one in the Com
monwealth an opportunity for that
higher education which is more than
ever before necessary to the highest
success. Her claims upon the affec>
ton and respect of Virginians are
many, and she has recently added to
them by putting in reach of the de-
serving number of scholarships, full
information of which can be had by
