Only once during his career, and then through an accident, had Dixon been knocked out, and to avoid having this stain cast upon his es- eutcheon his manager, Tom ORourke, waived his interest in a big wager that the colored boy would last ten rounds and threw up the sponge at the end of the eighth. The contest had been sched- uled for 25 rounds.

NEGROES SHOT DOWN
in NEW ORLEANS STREETS

New Orleans, July 26.-In the rioting
of last night and to-day on negro was
beaten to death, six We're so badly
wounded that their lives are despaired
of, and about score Of people, white
and black, male and female, have been
more or less seriously wounded.
Disorderly acts following the dis
turbances of last night We're commit
ted throughout the city to-day and re
suited in the swearing in by the mayor
of 500 special policemen, and the order
ing out of the 800 of the state militia
upon orders of Governor Heard, who
responded promptly to the appeal of
Mayor Capdeville for assistance in
suppressing the existing lawlessness,
and in preventing to,hight a recurrence
of the violence of last night.
Throughout the day attacks have
been made by irresponsible mobs of
whites upon the black element, and the
negroes before nightfall had been COM
pletely chased from the streets. The
effect of the disorders has put prac-
teal stop to business in the wholesale
districts and the river front, and this
means a serious crippling of the trade
of the port. The business elements raj
lied in force, and hundreds of the most
prominent men of the city responded to
tue HDptul Ol tllt mayor IOT ISSlStauCt
in preserving order.
Colonel Wood the commander of the
First Louisiana regiment in the Span
ish war, was placed in command of the
special police.
The police have been practically
helpless throughout the disturbance.
The force consists of 300 men. includ-
ing clerks and operators, and is mani
feStly inadequate TO the preservation
of peace in city of 100000 people.
Aside from this was the Indignation
among the members of the department
over the killing of Captain Day and Pa
trolman Lamb by the negro Robert
Charles.
Further. there is a strong resentment
on the part of the working people
against steamship agents and contrac-
tors because of the employment of ne
gro labor to the exclusion of whites on
public works and ON the levee fronts.
At twilight there We're 1.5OO men in
the armories. At the same time the
mayor, in a proclamation. applied for
500 special police. Before o'clock p.
N. 400 representative citizens had been
sworn in. The mayor drew upon lead
ng hardware and ammunition estab-
ishments of the country and the spe-
cials We're heavily armed and then dis
ributed over the country.
Hoodlums prowled the streets
throughout the day. and whenever they
spied n negro assaulted him. In some
cases citizens helped the police. who,
with their assistance, beat off the hood
iums.
One of the most fragrant instances of
cowardice shown was that of n man
who slipped into the morgue and.
pointing his pistol through a window,
made an attempt to shoot one of the fe-
male negro prisoners in the parish pris
on.
Just at daylight the remnant of one

Cost of the Indian Famine.

London, July 2T.-In introducing the
Indian budget in the House of Com
mons to-day the secretary of state for
India commended the patience, resig
nation, courtesy and abstention from
crime with which the 52,o00,0O0 people
in the stricken area have faced famine.
The latest reports from India, he said
were anything but satisfactory. on
the other hand, there We're certain COM
pensating advantages in the shape in
which the revenue year closed.
mere was, he said, substantial
credit balance of S14, $50, 600, but the
famine expenditure and remission of
taxation would turn this into a deficit
of 81, 100000. The government propos-
ed 10 apply the uneNpended balance of
S15,oO0,00O of the former loan toward
relief. This would, he hoped, meet all
demands. If the resources of India
did not suffice to save the lives of the
famine-stricken, then an appeal would
be made to the imperial eXchequer.
In the last two years, Lord Hamilton
said. SG5,OO0,O00 had been expended in
famine relief.

COLOMBIA REBELS
LAY DOWN ARMS

Panama. July 26.-The insurgents in
the department of Panama have sur
rendered. There was II terrible battle,
lasting eleven hours, before the insur-
gents We're defeated and asked for
peace. The dead We're picked up by
carloads and cremated. The hospitals
of the city are filled with the wounded
of both armies.
The fighting between the government
troops and the revolutionists, which
began early yesterday morning. when
the rebels attacked the outskirts of
Panama, continued all night. with
heavy casualties on both sides.
Efforts begun yesterday to bring
about an armistice, in order that the
dead might be buried and the wounded
collected. were kept up during the
night and proved successful this morn
ing.
1t was agreed by the leaders that
hostilities should be suspended for
twelve hours, so that each side ght
care for its dead and wounded.
After firing had ceased under this
agreement, Iezekiah A. Gudger, Amer
lean consul general, and the British
consul. acting in behalf of the entire
consular corps, had long and import
ant conference with the revolutionary
leaders. Through their Intervention both
sides consented to extend the armistice
until noon tomorrow.
The consuls used every effort to pre-
vent bombardment of the city by the
insurgents. Consul Gudger was espe-
cially active in this work, because of
the treaty obligations which require
the United States to insure the neutral
ity of the lsthmus of Panama and pre-
serve freedom of transit ON the rail
roads
General Campo Zerrano, titular gov
ernor of Panama, arrived in Colon yes
terday with 1000 troops from Baran-
quilla and reached Panama with these
reinforcements during the night.
The armistice brought great relief to
the panicstricken citizens of Panama.
1t enabled them to appear in the streets
with safety, which could not be done
while the firing continued. for stray
bullets We're constantly dropping in
the city. Several persons We're wound
ed by these bullets.
The ambulance corps from the Brit
ish cruiser Leander, which was asked
by the govrnment to help in attend
ance upon the wounded, landed yester-
day morning and rendered valuable
assistance.
Every physician in the city, Sisters
of Charity and many private citizens
Joined in this work
Fighting became desperate several
times during last night and both the
regulars and insurgents lost heavily in
officers. Among the revolutionists
killed We're Generals Temistocles Diaz
and Joacquin On the government side
Colonel Barona, Majors Holguin and
Rolando Linares and Captain Pedro
Pachio We're killed
When the insurgents heard of tbe
arrival of reinforcements, they decided
after hasty consultation, to abandon
the struggle and notified the govern
ment that they would lay down their
arms Thers is great rejoicing here.

STRONG TESTIMONY
AT POWERS TRIAL

Georgetown, Ky, July 26.-There
We're several sensational features in the
evidence of the Powers trial to-day
Constable Harrod of Frankfort, who
entered the legislative building II n
ute or two after the shooting of Goetel
testified that lie saw a man whose tie
scription tailed with that of Youtsey
close the door of the office of secretary
of state behind him and run down the
basement steps.
w. ii. Wagner of williamsburg the
home of Charles Finley, who arrived
in Frankfort with the mountain men
January 25th, and spent much of his
time between then and the day of the
assassination in Powers office gave
damaging testimony against both Pow
ers and Ioutsey. He said that the Fri
day preceding the assassination several
men We're in Powers office discussing
ways and means of defeating Goebel
before the Legislature, and n man in
the party said:
Somebody ought to kill the d-n
rascal" Another replied: Il have
made up my mind to do that myself"
The witness said he did not know
either of the men talking at that time,
but he had seen Youtsey recently, and
was almost positive he was the man
who made the last remark.
The Elk Mountain pilot., 1900-07-31

of the mobs gathered at the Spanish
fort railway, when n large number of
negro laborers leave for their work at
Chalmette. They saw a crowd of
darkies approaching and started to
chase them. Louis Lapuyard got in
their way and received bullet in his
leg.
Later in the forenoon n negro emptied
his pistol into downtown house and
wounded child. At IL o'clock n mob
marched through Lafayette square,
which is opposite the city hall, and dis
covering some negroes in the park,
jumped on and beat them until they
made their escape.
Shortly after 1 o'clock Josephine
Wild, child, while seated in front of
her home, caught a stray bullet in the
face. Two hours later Nordo Fratallo
and Tony Michel. Italians, got into Il
dispute as to whether the mob was
right or wrong in running down and
whipping out the negroes. One had n
knife and the other a gun. Fratallo
was badly wounded.
One of the most sensational incidents
of the day was the discovery of two
negroes wounded almost to death in
box ear on the levee front. The poor
fellows were desperately hurt and only
oHt WIS CouStlOuS. ne WIS 50 lTlpHl-
ened that he declined to give any ac-
count of the shooting. Both Were re-
moved to hospital, where it was
found that both had been stabbed close
to the heart. One was Nathan Brown
and the other Charles Washington.
Late this afternoon Mayor Capdeyille
issued n proclamation which had an
excellent effect. 1t called upon all citi-
Zens not enrolled in the special police
to go to their homes and places of bust
ness and remain there. They were
warned also and advised not to assem-
BILE or idle about the streets. The po-
lice were ordered to disperse all crowds
and to arrest all obstreperous and dis
orderlies
As result of the proclamation to-
night few people We're found on the
streets. In order to prevent the mis-
cellaneous distribution of arms. the
mayor ordered the closing up of the
gun stores and every saloon in the city.
The present emeute is sincerely dep
recated and has the support of none of
the conservative elements of the com
munity. Local business houses are
much opposed to the importation here
of large numbers of negroes to work on
the levees or public works, but while
they are of this opinion. they are much
opposed to violent methods in dealing
with the negro population. Only the
worst elements have participated in
the disorders here, and the assurance
is given that those responsible for these
disorders Will be punished If they can
be apprehended.
At midnight the city was queter
than 1t usually is at night There is n
report of the capture of Charles. the
slayer of Police Captain Day If pos
sible, he will be protected and given Il
trial in court, the authorities having
determined not to permit lynching,
no matter how much force is required
to prevent 1t.

What is the duration of a winkI
The time occupied by the several
phases of the movement has been
measured, and it is found that the
mean duration of the descent of the lid
is from seventy-five to ninety-one
thousandths of second. The interval
while the eye is shut was in one case
only fteen-hundredths of a second.
The rising of the lid occupied seven
teen-hundredths of second. A spe-
cially arranged Photographic appar-
atus was used. The colloquial phrase
that something is done quicker than
a wink" is therefore expressive to a
degree that may be stated in fractions

The Chicago Strike,

Chicago, July 26.-The effort of Pres
ident Gompers of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor TO bring about settle
ment of the Chicago labor troubles has
apparently failed.
He was notified to-day by delega-
ton of contractors that the only way
a settlement could possibly be effected
was by the unions Withdrawing from
the Building Trades Council.
Mr. Gompers replied to the contrac.
tors that, as he was representative
of the men and practically the agent
of the Building Trades Council. he
could countenance no such settlement
as this, and would not agree to it.
