ATTACKED BY HoODLUMs,
Hon. Chsuncey N. Depews Escort o. March,
Ing Clubs. In Chicago, Assa1ited-
Many Injured,

Chicago, Oct. 9.-Bloodshed fol.
lowed in the train of Chauncey Depew
and his three-mile escort of republic.
an marching clubs last night. Just
as the last company in line turned the
corner of Sedgwick street and Chica-
go avenue, it was charged on by an or
ganized gang of men who had con-
cealed themselves in the dark recess
of an unlighted alley.
The rioters were repulsed finally by
the marchers, but not until four or
live of the republican marchers had
t.een injured, some of them quite seri-
ously. The most seriously wounded
were:
Michael Ball. found on the streeG
unconscious after the struggle; nose
broken, eye cut. three teeth knocked
out; struck on head with a brick. He
was taken to a hospital.
Geo. Hughes, picked up unconscious,
having been struck on the head with
q paving block; slight confusion Of
the skull.
Capt. Maurice Wollmann, struck on
the back of the head and stunned.
Robert Lang, knocked down and in-
jured about the body. being trampled
on.
Many others of the marchers were
more or less hurt and their uniforms
ruined.
The men who precipitated the riot
escaped.

YELLOW FEVER IN HAVANA.
Present Year Due to Influx of
Unacclimated PERSONS.

New York, Oct. 9.-Yellow fever pre-
walls in Havana to a greater extent
than at any time since 1897, says a
Washington dispatch to the Herald.
For the week ended September Is
there were nine deaths. The week
ended September % also showed nine
deaths. while there were 10 during
the week ended September 20.
The marine hospital reports show a
total of 40 deaths for the month of
August. In August, 1898, there were
only 16 deaths from yellow fever in
Havana, and in August, 1899, there
were only 13. Compared with pre-
vious years, however, the mortality
from yellow fever this year is small.
The deaths from this disease in Au-
gust, 1898, were 100: 1894, 70; 1895,
120; 1896, 262, and 1897, 102.
The high death rate in 1895, and the
two following years, is due in large
measure to the unacclimated Spanish
soldiers who were stricken with the
disease.
The excess of mortality during the
present year over the two preceding
years is due to the fact that there are
many more unacclimated persons in
Havana now than at any time since
1897.

HOT SPRINGS RESERVATION.
Interesting Report Of the Superin.
tendcnt With Timely Rec
concentrations.

Washington, Oct. San interesting
report On the Hot Springs reservation
in Arkansas has been submitted to
the secretary of the interior by the
superintendent, Martin A. Eisele.
Mr.. Eisele says that the springs
during the past season reached the
high water mark of popularity. Ac.
cording to the best estimates there
were $4,000 visitors during the season
The income to the government from
water Inc ground rents amounted to
S1S,670, while the fixed charges were
only about fourteen thousand dollars
leaving a fair balance, which, in &C.
cordance with the liberal policy Of the
government, was available for i'm
provements of different portions Of
the reservation.
The reservation includes OIL acres
and in this tract there are ISL govern.
ment lots still unsold. The superin.
tendent says the sale of these lots,
which have been appraised at $4,000,
would go far toward providing the
money necessary in perfecting the
work of park improvement now GO
ing forward, and he earnestly recon-
mends a reappraisement of the
March, 1901, when the influx of WIS.,
itors to the springs is at its height.
The sale of lots, he says, also VII
be of benefit to the municipality, as
many of them stand in the way of
street improvement and their private
ownership will subject them 20 taxa
lion for the benefit of the city. while
adding to the value of the property
by the handsome residences which will
be erected on them.
The administration of the springs
by the governor, Mr.. Eisele says, has
been wise and beneficent. The amount
of water distributed to each bath
house is scrupulously controlled and
the public protected from monopoly and
extortion by the schedule of charges
provided by the secretary of the in
terror.
has grown to be a most important in
stitution and of great benefit to the
INDECENT sufferers who otherwise
would. not have the benefit of the
waters. The record of this establish
:nent for the past year shows 9,50s ap-
plications for free baths, of which
only 216 were refused for various rea-
sons. The total number of single
free baths given was 10000, at a net
cost of 1.57 cents per bath.
One of the features of the free bath
patrons noted in the report is hat
there are bath fiends who have a NOR
bid craving for the treatment, much
the same as the craving for drugs and
whisky among other inebriates

HAVE ACHIEVED A VICTORY.
The Dispute, However, is by No
Means Settled.

Means Settled.
Indianapolis, Ind, Oct. 9.-W. T..
Wilson, secretary-treasurer of the
United Mine Workers of America, has
issued a statement in which he says
in part:
".All of the coal operators having
o conceded an advance in wages, it
can be truthfully said that the min
crs of the anthracite region have
achieved a great victory. Yet the dis
pt:te is not settled, nor will it he,
even though the miners accept the
proposition of the operators and re-
turn to work. The sliding scale, dock
age, semi-monthly pay and other
grievances complained of by the min
ers have not been considered in the
proposition of the operators, and the
advance in wages is so complicated
that many of the miners do not I'M
derstand it. Under these circum-
stances the surest and best method of
securing n settlement and establish
ing permanent peace, would como
from Il meeting of the operators with
the anthracite miners when they
meet to consider the offer of the coal
companies.
''Thc anthracite coal field is divided
by its mountain ranges into three dis
tinct regions, each having geological
conditions peculiar to itself, thus re-
quiripg different systems of working
and different methods and employ
nlent.
"The only method by which salts
factory explanations can be made is
for the operators to meet the miners
when n convention is held to consider
the offer of the operators"
