FORT SCOTT, KAN, JULY 27.-When
Jerry Simpson attempted to address a
big audience in an amphtheatre at race
meeting here last evening upon invitation
of the association, he was interrupted by
crowd. They made it impossible for
him to continue and crowded in upon the
press stand from whicvh he was speak
ing. He turned and asked young negro
who was sitting on the railing making a
noise, to desist, but he would not. There
upon Simpson undertook to push him
from the railing, but he sprang up and
grappled with the statesman. They stood
on a table, which gave way letting them
to the floor. Two hundred hoodlums
pushed in to join in the fuss and a riot
ensued. Mayor Goodlander headed a re-
lief force of business and professional
men which rushed down from the audi
ence to defend Simpson, who was ham,
mering the negro and fighting the oncom-
ing mob. The mayor hurled the negro
over the railing and as he fell a bystond-
er struck him on the head with a club
causing free flow Of blood This melted
the mob to further violence, but It was
beaten back. The police had arrested the
negro but the rabble surged after them
and took him from them. Simpson was
again introduced but declined TO speak.

INCREASE
In Trade. Says BIadStreets, is
Favorable

NEW YORK, JULY H-Bradstre IS
tomorrow will say:
Important changes in trade and spec
ulation are no,apiy lacking this week. but
,ounter currents of demand in various
SECTIONS and industries lend rather
more than usually irregular appearance
to the general situation.
Among the notable features calling for
notice are the practicalu assurance OF
an immense corn crop by the recent CO.
pious rains in the further west, the con-
tinued cheerful reports from the sections
which have gathered and are now mar
keting a large winter wheat crop, adVices
Of continued improvement in tone in the
northwest, with reports of renewals or
earlier cancelled orders for fall goods,
fairly satisfactory gains in gross railway
earnings less weakness in prices of the
country's leading cereal products, backed
apparently on renewed buying for export
and rather more inquiry for raw wool
by manufacturers.
Unfavorable elements in trade probab-
ly find their chief and greatest exposi-
ton in the iron and steel business. That
industry is, If possible, more depressed
than at any time for three years past,
and expectations that price declines would
be checked by the arrival of finished mat
ter at cost basis hape been disappointed
because this week steel bars have been
sold in some instances at l per cent per
pound, which is unquestionably below the
basis of cost of raw materials.
Export business would undoubtedly eX-
pand if ship room were available. Among
other metals tin is locally lower on freer
arrivals, after touching the highest price
in twenty-seven years.
Trade in dry goods, at the east par

NEW LONDON, MO, July 27.-The
court in the trial of the murder OF
Gilbert Gates, today charged the Jury.
The jury was instructed that it's men,
bers are the sole judges of the evi-
dence and the credibility of the wit
nesses and that where a person chang.
ed with a crime breaks Jail and inten-
tionally escapes from the officers to
avoid trial, such escape, in the absence
OF qualifying circumstances, raises
presumption Of guilt. The defense hal
admitted that Jester broke out Of the
Mexico Jail.
The court further instructed the
jury that unless they believe and find
from the evidence in the case that
Gilbert w Gates is dead and that lie
came TO his death through the Grimm
al agency Of some person and that
that person is the defendant and tnat
that defendant murdered Gilbert w.
Gates, in the manner and by me nS
