VICTOR DEMOCRATS.
Take Official Action ON the
Roosevelt Episode.

Victor, Colo. Sept. 29.-The Teller
county Democratic convention and the
Democratic club of Victor adopted the
following resolutions unanimously:
Whereas, Gov. Roosevelt and party
were not received in Victor with the
tolerance and courtesy due to the COVER
nor of sister state; therefore,
Resolved, That we. the Democrats of
Victor, in convention assembled, con-
denim the spirit of intolerance and dis
courtesy exhibited on that occasion and
disavow all responsibility for the dis
turbance of the speakers in a public hall
and for the subsequent violence indulged
in by members of the Republican march
ing club; further,
Resolved, And we also deplore the folly
that induced the Republicans of Colo
RADIO to provoke disorder by bringing
Governor Roosevelt to this city under
the auspices of the cordially detested
traitor and renegade. Senator Edward Q.

REALIZED BUT LITTLE.
Auditorium Seats Can Not Be
Paid For.

The musical festival opening Of the
Auditorium was successful only in point
of merit and not from a financial stand
point. The bills for the expenses Of the
five shows have not all been put In but
they will undoubtedly aggregate about
So, 200.
The cost of securing the orchestra
and soloists was s., ,5s5. In addition to
this their hotel bills and railroad fare
had to be paid. This together with other
expenses will bring the total amount
up to perhaps $4,000.
There were 8, sol admissions during the
five entertainments as follows:
On Tuesday evening, 2,31S- "a
Wednesday matinee, 1.713.
Wednesday evening, 1.740.
Thursday evening, 2,451.
Friday evening, 1,273.
Total, 9,501.
The total amount of money received
by the treasurer of the committee IS
$3, ,607 80. This includes everything re-
ceived to date. There will perhaps be a
little turned in from the sale of tickets
by the ladies of the orphans home. They
have already turned over $500, the lare-
est part of the amount taken by Them
The problem which now confronts the
Commercial club is how to procure the
money with which to pay for the chairs
in the Auditorium. The amount OF
about $500 will have to be raised in
some manner.

washington. Sept. 2a-The alignment
of the powers on the German proposition
to make the punishment of the Chinese
ringleaders a condition pracendent to ne
gotiations, may now be Stated as fol-
lows:
Great Britain, Russia and France
stand with the United States in regard
ing this proposition as inexpedient.
Japan occupies a middle attitude; she
is willing to follow the German lead if
all the other powers are agreeable, but
only for the sake of preserving harmony
among the powers and not from belief
in the wisdom of the German PROPOSE
tion.
Austria and Italy stand shoulder to
shoulder with Germany, making the
dreibund a solid front The first named
two powers, do not attempt to argue the
German proposition and their answers
make it apparent that they have accept
ed it without much consideration.
Nothing is known here officially of the
alternative proposition which IS report
ed to be preparing in Europe. If it con-
tains the same feature as to prior pun
ishment as the original proposition, it
is not likely to receive approval here.
The fact that Secretary Hay is ex
pected to return to Washington next
week, will not change in any way the
policy of the state department. The sec
retary has been in the closest synnpa-
thetic touch with all that has been done
respecting China and the stories printed
in Germany to the effect that he is COM
ing back to reverse these policies, is
pronounced at the state department TO
be absurd.
The officials are impressed and have
been from the beginning with the con-
viction that any attempt made to pun
ish Prince Tuan before negotiations are
undertaken will absolutely defeat all ef-
forts to obtain a peaeeable and satisfac-
tory settlement. Indeed, it is believed
that the attempt of Germany to appre-
hend such Chinese offtsials at this stage
has actually been the cause of Prince
Tnan's promotion, rather than anything
contained in the American refusal of
the German proposition. 1t is pointed
out that an fnevst abe result Of such an
effort would be to cause the Chinese Of
ficials against whom it was directed, to
strive by every means in their power to
secure the support of the throne just as
Tuan has in this case
Mr.. Conger was heard from in a brief
cablegram today This was not pub
lished, but it is understood to indicate
no important developments.

PROMENADE CONCERTS.
Excellent Opportunity to Use Audi
torium for Marshall's Band.

TOrlum LOT MarShaIIS BAND.
Tt has been suggested that nothing
could be more fitting than a series of
concerts by Marsha1l's band in the Aud
itorium. BY the removal of the dress
circle chairs a broad and extensive
promenade would be supplied. The sea-
son is so far gone that outdoor concerts
in Garfield park will soon be over. 1t is
argued that the people would delight in
a continuation Of the weekly concerts
and here is just the place for them.
If it could be arranged with the city
council to extend a helping hand to this
organization, is the proposition, by
charging a nominal rental to cover heat
ing, lighting and incidentals to opening
only, this popular organization could
continue to give concerts for a ten cent
admission, through the winter, to the
advantage of its own maintenance and
the pleasure of the populace.

WEST VIRGINIA TRAGEDY.
REV. WOHL KILLED BECAUSE OF
a SERMON PREACHED.
(Ry Telegraph to Virginian- Pilot.)

"A SERMON PREACHED.
(Ry Telegraph to virginian- Pilot,
Williamson. w. Va, Dec. 6.-Excite-
ment is still intense here to-day, and
every hour of the day brings forth
some new phase of the terrible tragedy
that was enacted here yesterday after
noon. and with every additional cir
cumstance 1T becomes more evident
that the shooting of Rev. John H. Wohl
by the Hon. S. ID. Stokes on the streets
here yesterday was the result of the
sermon. clear and forceful. and yet
withal fearfully scathing, preached by
Rev. Wohl in church last Sunday.
Mr.. Stokes Is tonight improving and
1t is now expected that he will recover.
although his escape from death was
exceedingly narrow. His coat, upon in
vestigation. was found with no less
than three holes in 1t. which shows
that Rev. Wohl fired at least four
shots. 1t now turns out that Mr..
Stokes fired oftener than was at first
supposed. Mr.. Wohl was found to be
wounded in the shoulder. From this,
evidently after the first fatal bullet, he
wheeled and was thus shot in the back
Mrs. Levine has at last consented to
make public statement. and late this
evening made an affidavit in which She
the only eye witness of the fight
throughout. swears that the first shot
was fred by Rev. Wohl after a pro
lonaed discussion of the sermon and :hc
cartoons AMI caricatures that had been
used to emphasize its more striking
passages.
All day to-day friends or Mr. Stokes
have been streaming into town from all
points within radius Of one hundred
miles. Mr.. stokes has not hecn con
fined in Jail. hut has ever since the
tragedy been in the custody OF the
officers In private house.
The Rev. Wohl. in his sermon. de-
picted in vivid language tho tcrrib,

condemned without exception every

dulged in either.
