That spokane Meeting.

The state committee will meet at Spo-
kane April l6. This Is the date on which
the Democratic and Silver Republican
committees will meet I'm Spokane for the
announced purpose, on the part OF the
Democrats. of gathering the other two
branches of the fusion family into tho
Democratic band wagon. There are
many Populists who see in this action
of the state committee thinly disguised
purpose to aid in the delivery of the Popu-
list party into the Democratic camp. The
scheme, IL is alleged. is to have the three
committees meet in Joint session and
formally consolidate under the name OF
the Democratic party.
This. II is understood viii be followed
by the issuance of an address to the flu
sion voters of the state announcing the
amalgamation of the Populist and Silver
Republican parties and calling on the
voters of the three elements TO Join to-
gether in one set Of primaries this fall
for the election of delegates to the Demo-
cratic state convention.
Concerning the action of the People q
party state committee In issuing a call
for a meeting at Spokane for the pur-
pose Of selecting national delegates, Judge
Wiusor said Yesterday:

Among the Peoples party leaders and
workers in this county a revolt of con-
siderable proportions has broken out
against the proposed election of national
delegates by a convention composed of
the state committee and the chairrnen
OF the several county central committees
throughout the state. IL is charged
against the state committee that the
proposition TO abrogate the rule Of the
party regarding a state convention of
delegates elected by the people through
their local primaries and conventions is
a violation OF the basic principles OF
Populism and self-government
The rebellion against the decree of the
state committee, which has ordered the
election Of delegates in the manner com
planned of. has taken definite form In the
Issuance by Judge Richard Winsor of a
call for mass meeting of Peoples party
men TO take action in the matter. The
meeting will be held Saturday evening
at Masonic temple.
The call for the meeting of the state
committee of the Peoples party and of
the various county chairmen has been
Issued by Chairman Mclaughlin, of the
Populist state committee. 1t is charged
by Judge Winsor, who is chairman OF the
King county committee. that no general
circulation of Mr.. McLaughlin's call had
been given until very recently, whereas,
II Is alleged, the state committee decided
to dispense with state convention sew
eral weeks ago.
Another cause for criticism leveled
against the state committee Is the al
legged fact that there is a very ostensible
purpose to send a Bryan delegation from
Washington TO the Peoples party national
convention without giving the masses of
the party workers a voice In the matter.
This is pronounced high-handed bossism
of the worst type Ii is not because
there Is any opposition 10 Mr.. Bryan
among large number of Peoples party
men that this criticism is made; 1t is be-
cause of the fact that the state commit
tee proposes to deliver the delegation to
the Democratic candidate in advance and
without consulting the wishes and views
of the Populists at large throughout the
state.

MARRIED BY BAD WEATHER
Cold, DrizZling Rain Falls During the

Cold, Drizzling Rain Falls During the
New York Republican Parade.
NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-In spite of a
cold, drfzzling rain and muddy streets
throughout the four and one-half miles
of the line of march, the parade ar
ranged by the Business Mems Republi-
can and Sound Money association, and
reviewed by Governor Theodore Rcose-
welt, the Republican candidate for vice
president. was remarkable demon
stration The march was begun shortly
before 10 o'clock, when Mr.. Roosevelt,
surrounded by large escort, started
up Broadway in an open barouche.
In every block he was greeted by
crowds that lined up both sides of the
street and time after time he was COM
PEELED to rise in mis- carriage to respond
to the salutes Of those who lined the
route of march. At Madison Square,
where he took his place in the review
ing stand, he was given an enthusiast
tic reception, although the people were
somewhat fewer in number than had
been expected, owing d. btlessly to the
bad weather
The marchers paid no attention
whatever to the various Democratic
banners and motto-bearing steamers
along the route. They passed under
them without seeming to notice that
they were there.

A SAD SIGHT.
Intoxicated Man Assaults his Wife in
Passenger Car.

lHlOAlCdIeu WAN Assaults Ills VIE III q
Passenger Car.
The passengers on the Chicago Great
Western train that left Mankato for
the east at 4 AS o'clock Thursday after
noon were treated to a rather sensa-
tional sight. A lady entered the pass
enger coach and soon after taking her
seat man entered and began to choke
her and tried to get her pocket book
away from her, in so doing tearing
her gloves to pieces and also rending
her clothing. The lady was in tears
but resisted as best she could. DR..
J. W. Andrews and his brother, Judge
J. o. Andrews, were passengers on
the Car. DR.. Andrews was the first in
and his attention was attracted by
the struggle. He ran to the man, who
was evidently under the influence of
liquor, and pulled him away, at the
same time striking him with a news
paper, and telling him that he could
not act that way in the Car.
The fellow said that he was the
lady's husband and could do as he
pleased with her DR.. Andrews re-
mOnstrated with him to such effect
that he desisted and left the car, tax
ing his wife's satchel with him, she
retaining possession of the purse. The
man, as he left the train, hurled back
vile and slanderous epithets at his
wife, and then entered a conveyance
and was driven up town, hooting and
shouting as he went
The lady thanked Dr. Andrews for
his interference and explained that
her husband had been drinking heavily
for some days and had pounded her
and abused her to the extent that S he
had concluded to go to her friends at
Elysian, but her husband tried to pre-
vent her from doing so.
The lady returned on the 9 100 p. m.
train to get her satchel, but took the
precaution to have police officer at
the depot to accompany her home and
see that no harm came to her.
The couple have been married for
five years, and the man has had vari-
GUS employment in the city. 1t is
possible that the matter will be
dropped.

CONDITION SERIOUS
Senator Davis Taken for the
Worse.
Fears Entertained That His Life Cannot
be Saved by AmputatiOn of
the Foot.

The St. Paul Pioneer Press Monday
morning speaking of Senator Davis.
who has been laid up at his home in
that city for several weeks back,
says:
"Serious changes were yesterday
made known in the condition of Sena
tor G. K Davis, who since last Sep
TENDER has been suffering from poi
soned foot.
"He abraded his right foot slightly
in August. The abrasion was after
ward aggravated while the senator
was in Maine by the dye from black
silk sock. But he returned to Mime
sofa and spoke at Duluth Sept 81, at
Fergus Falls Sept. %, before retiring
from his campaign labors His foot
was then much swollen and extremely
painful.
''Dr. Alexander J. Stone, assisted
by DR.. John L. Rothrock and DIR.
Howard Lancaster, performed an oper-
alton Oct. IA, and another operation
Oct. "a, which removed the swelling
and apparently placed the patient on
the path of quick recovery. Last Fri
day, however, the senator became
feverish Saturday sharp pain in the
sole of his foot drew attention to an
accumulation of purulent matter at
that point. Until then the diseased
tissues had conferred about the base of
the little toe. Yesterday morning the
senator was again feverish. He COM
planned of the dreaded, shooting pains
not only in the sole of his foot, but
in his heel, and even in his ankle.
''Dr. Stone said last evening that
Senator Davis had developed unfavor-
able symptoms DR.. Stone added that
he had telegraphed for DR.. Murphy of
Chicago, said to be. the best surgeon
in that city and one of the most skill
ed in the United States. DR.. Murphy
will arrive this morning.
"The outcome of the senator's case
is uncertain. 1t is doubtful whether
he can avoid the loss of his right foot,
and possibly his leg. Should the in
lection not be promptly arrested the
case will tax the utmost surgical skill
"An improvement began yesterday
afternoon which may happily prove
to be more than temporary. The dart
ing pains in the foot disappeared. The
fever subsidized. The senator ate with
relish, and declared himself much
better. He is restless from long con-
inement. He has become thin and
feeble but does not realize his
condition.
