MotOrman's Dangerous Deed.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star

RICHMOND, Va, November 1.-Motor-
man Williams, on the Main street line,
found that he could not stop his car on the
slick tracks as he approached Belvidere
street this morning, where the railroad
gates were down and a passenger train ap-
preaching. The car was crowded with
women and school children. He gave his
car the full current, carried away the gates,
and crossed with a few inches to spare
amid the cries of many women, who all
abused him to relieve their feelings as
soon as the danger was over.

opinion of republican leaders, the hand
shaking business is not of much account

his time when he ought to be attending to

causes constant commotion around the

ury shows that for October the receipts

nearly as great as for this month. The
expenditures for October of this year are
$3,s19,611 greater than for the same month
last year. 1t is stated at the Treasury De-
partment that this is due to the increased
expenses in the War Department. Much
OF this increase, it is declared, is due to the
war In China Prior to that time the army
was not recruited to the full extent allowed
by the law, but upon the situation in China
threatening trouble the army was raise I'd
to Its full limit, thus increasing expenses
In many directions. The campaign in China
has also increased expenses in the matter
of transportation and subsistence. The in

which continues to climb; internal revenue,

TROUBLE IN AroHIsoN.
Curtis and Bailey Forces Clash at a
Meeting.

The congressional campaign in Atch-
ison county is the first in the state
where a representative of an opposition
crowd attempted to make q speech in
the interests of the man against whom
the meeting was called to organize a
fight C D. Walker is a Bailey man,
when he is not running for congress
himself, but he attempted to make a
speech in a Curtis meeting Saturday
night.
The Curtis forces called a meeting
and organized a Curtis club. Some of
the Curtis men made short speeches
after which Mr.. Walker, without recog-
milton from the chairman of the meet
ing walked to the front part of the hall
and opened up for Mr.. Bailey. Interrupt
ions We're frequent until Walker referr-
ed to Ex-Governor Morrill, as a Bailey
man. Mayor Donald interrupted, say
ing that E. N. Morrill, was a Curtis
man. Mr. Walker insisted that Mr..
Morrill, had a short time before told him
that he was for Bailey. Mayor Donald
spoke much louder, saying Morrill, was
a Curtis man. AS things got to looking
a little rough, President Bereman said
he thought the regular business should
proceed, and Mr.. Walker readily ac-
quiesced, and soon after left the hall
with several others.
