One Negro Killed, Several Fatally
wounded, and Many Injured.
All Wednesday night mobs ran riot
through New Orleans on the hunt for des-
perado negroes. All the black men they
came across were attacked. The outbreak
was caused by the killing of two policemen
by negro. One negro was pulled off a
trolley car and killed. Another car which
carried negroes was riddled with bullets
and the motorman and conductor wounded.
Several white persons were unintentionally
wounded by bullets intended for black
men. All the negroes attacked were I'M
offensive. The police were powerless.
The mobs are composed almost entirely
of boys under 2l. Baptist Flo, aged IS,
was beaten and shot TO death and three
unknown negroes shared similar fates.
Disorderly scenes prevailed yesterday
and resulted in the swearing in by the
mayor of 500 special policemen and the
ordering out of 1900 of the state militia
A summary of the casualties growing Out
of the disturbances Wednesday night and
yesterday shows that one negro was beaten
to death, six were so badly wounded thai
their lives are despaired of, and about 6
score of people, white and black, male ant
female, have been more or less seriousl!

SENATORS HANNA AND Eyre.

The greeting given to Senators
Hanna and Frye today was mag nif
icent one and will result in increasing
the enthusiasm in the campaign from
now to the close. The address made
by Senator Frye was a strong one.
The situation was clearly and con-
cisely put, and the great progress the
nation has made under the rule of the
Republican party and especially dur
ing the past three years was set forth
in most forceful manner. Facts and
figures were set forth backing up each
assertion made and the result was an
unanswerable argument for the Re-
publican position.
Senator Hanna..in the few minutes
at his command, showed up the shall
lowness and demagogism of Bryan
and his utter insincerity in rushing
from issue to issue and capped the
climax when he said the last one had
not been announced yet. The real issue
he said was prosperity and that he was
not afraid of the result. He is pleas
ant, plain spoken gentleman, showing
in his face great force of character and
his visit to the northwest will do
much in disillusioning the people of
the idea many had formed of him from
the abuse the opposition has showered
upon him.

Serious Trouble.
CORBETT USED HIS GUN
Killed an Old Man Who
Had Been Fishing
With a Net.

Deputy Game Warden Edward Cor
bett of St. Paul has been indicted by
the grand jury of Ramsey county for
murder in the first degree for the Shoot
ing and killing of Joseph Mrozinslzi, an
aged Polander. Mrozinski was fishing
with net in the Mississippi river for
bullheads and catfish. Three game
wardens went out in a launch and con-
f1scated his net. Mrozinski expostu-
lated and Corbett shot him in the
head with shotgun, killing him in
stantly. 1t was shown that the three
game wardens had taken two cases of
beer and a bottle of cocktails with
them on their pleasure trip, and nearly
all the liquor had been disposed of
before the tragedy took place. There

Two years ago Candidate John Lind
told the people that he was Just as
good Republican as he ever was, ex-
cept on the money question" In his
speech at the Bryan banquet in Mime
apolis last January, when referred to
by 1.-The distinguished guest of the
evening" as a silver Republican, he
arose and denied the name, saying:
81 shall not thank any one who ever
again designates me as silver Repub-
ncan; am anti-Republican, ANTI
REPUBLICAN IN EVERYTHING"
In accompanying Bryan on his recent
tour through the state Gov. Lind
identified himself with Organism and
everything that that name implies Is
he entitled to single Republican vote?

At Canton, Ohio, yesterday Mr..
Bryan said he hoped that despite the
fact that the president and the chair
man of the Republican committee were
residents of that state, the returns
will 'show that in great contest be-
tween European idea of force and the
American doctrine of government by
consent, Ohio will be on the side of
the United States instead of on the
side of Europe" 1t was hardly to be
expected that Mr.. Bryan would thus
readily admit that he was represen-
tative of the European idea of force,
or that he would recommend to the
people of Ohio to stand by their dis
tinguished son for the presidency, but
that is the only Interpretation that
can be placed upon his remarks. For
the only representative of dictatorial
powers, or of the European idea of
force is bound up in Mr.. Bryan, who
forced upon his party convention,
which he had been four years in pack
ing, the silver issue, and who has not
yet opened his mouth to condemn the
act of his party in North Carolina in
DISTINGUISHING 70, 600 voters and gov
erning them without their consent,
and who has not condemned, but
rather approved, the methods by which
the will of the majority of the people
was overturned in Kentucky and a

The Pioneer Press of yesterday
contained a review of the second,
third, sixth and seventh congressional
districts. These revisions are of a
most conservative character, and show
that McCleary. Heatwole, Morris
and Eddy will be returned to con-
gress by good majorities Capt Van
SAINT, it is estimated, will carry the
second district by from 2, 900 to 1000.
Lind carried the district two years
ago on light vote by 1,500. Nc
Kinley's majority is estimated at
about 10, 600.
The third is claimed for Van SAINT
by a fair majority and at is thought
will give Mckinley about the same
vote as four years ago.
In the sixth district the Republican
think Van SAINT will run close up to
the national ticket. He has done con-
siderable campaigning there and is
very popular with the voters.
In the sixth it is expected to cut
Lind's majority of 5000 two years
ago down to 1900 or below Nc
Kinley will carry the district by a
good majority, and nm almost solid
Republican legislative delegation will
be sent down to st. Paul from the
district which will vote for Senator
Nelson for reelection.
The first, fourth and fifth districts
were not covered by these reviews, but
thePioneer Press says that in those dis
tricts it is simply a question of the
size of the majorities for the Repub-
lican congressional candidates and
that Mckinley and Van SAINT will
carry all three districts

Two years ago John Lind made his
campaign on so-called Estate issues
He made all manner of charges of cor
ruption against the Republican admin
istrations of previous years. In his
addresses he plaintively appealed to
the people fer "a chance to open the
books" He went before the voters as
a candidate of no political party, but
as public spirited citizen with a mis-
sion to reform" things. How he has
reformed them is shown in the fore
going. His charges of corruption were
shown by legislative and non-partisan
Investigation to have been wholly false
Men whom he had traduced during the
campaign retired from office with the
very highest testimonials from him;
their places were filled with persons
who would consent to prostitute their

cal machine for ACKNOWLEDGMENT
