with the idea that there was a greater
demand for a playground or recreation
park than for anything else.
Speaking for the schools, it was said
by the teachers present that there
would be little difficulty in getting
voluntary work or contributions from
the children or their parents, in case
there was public object for the col

that there should be no waiting upon
other parts of the group, but decision

 TexaS

Waco, Texas. Oct. 21-One of the fiercest stret duels that has been fought in this section since the famous Brann- Davis tragedy occurred shortly after 1 o'clock this afternoon on Austin Avenue. the busiest thoroughfare in the city. The principals in the tragedy were ex-SherifG w. T. Harris and his son, w. T. Harris. Jr on the one side and Dr. T. c. Love lace and his step-son, z. T. Reynolds, on the other.
 It is said that bad feeling had existed between the men for some time over family affairs, and trouble had been cx- pected as a result
 They met by chance in the Turf saloon and young Harris, it Is alleged, opened fire with a shot gun on Lovelace over his (Harris) fathers shoulders, but without effect. Lovelace immediately returned the fire with a revolver, killing young Harris almost instantly. Lovelace then turned his revolver on the elder Harris. who likewise was killed.
 Lovelace and Reynolds were both un- injured. They immediately gave them selves up and were taken to the county jail and locked up to await the action of the grand jury which is now in session.
 w. T. Harris Sr.. was for six years sheriff of this county and made an ex- cellent reputation in that capacity
 The younger Harris was for a number of years connected with the Prevalent National Bank of this city, but more recently with the Cotton Belt RsilTOad.

Believed That Czolgosz Will Be
 Electrocuted October 2S.

Albany, N. Y. Oct A.-Warden Meade of Auburn prison spent several hours today in conte ence with Superin- ing the details for carrying out the sen- tence of death imposed on CZolgosz, the murderer of President Mckinley They went carefully over the 1900 requests which have been received for invitations to the electrocution. There will be but twt rty-sx witnesses admitted, the law limiting the number. The prison physi- cians will be assisted in ths conduct of the autopsy by Dr. Carlos F. Macdonald, former President of tha State Commission In Lunacy, and one of the greatest ex- per ts on insanity in the country. These vii; also be a number of other physicians in attendance when the final mandate of the law Is carried out.
 Supt rintendent of State Pri sons Collins Is silent as to whom he will invite, but 1t is learned that the sheriff of Erie County, within whose Jurisdiction the crime was committed, will receive an invitation.
 Because of the small attendance that can be had under the statute, there will be but a limited number of representa- tives of the press present. The details completed. and while the prison authori- ties guard with great secrecy all facts, 1t is believed that the execution will take place before o'clock on the morning of October 2s. or if everything cannot be gotten ready on that day. at a similar hour on the 29th.

SAMAR IS IN REBELLION
United States Troops Being Rushed to the Scene of the
 Trouble

Manila, Oct. H.-The island of Samar is seething in revolution and United States troops are being rushed to the seat of rioting to restore order and protect the troops already on the scene.
 Owing to the vigilance of Lieutenant Thomas M. Banes. Jr, of the 9th United states infantry, another slaughter of American troops by insurgents has been averted Lieutenant Banes discovered a prisoner re-entering cell at Carhga, is- land Of Samar, where several were con- fined. through hole that had been let in the wall. An investigation showed plan to fill the jail with bolo men and to call the guard, which would be necessary to get the door open and then to attack the garrison. It also developed that the in- stigators were 8 priest and the presi- dente, both of whom have been arrested, together with several other prominent persons. fE As
 Other attempts have been discovered but fortunately frustrated at Pambujar and other points in Samar. Several per. sons have been arrested in connection Reinforcemeuts are being rushed to Sa. mar. Three hundred and thirty marines have gone there on board the United States cruiser New York, and two bat talions of the 12th infantry will start i'm mediately for the same destination.
 United States officers from other prov inces that were supposed to be pacified have recently arrived in Manila. and they
 
 spreads like wildtire among the natives, who scarcely attempt to conceal their delight.
 The Manila constabulary discovered a large quantity of steel wagon springs which were being shipped to various dis tracts. Investigation showed that these were to be used in manufacturing bolos.
 The troops in Samar had hard fighting yesterday. Brigadier General Jacob B. Smith, who Is in command has visited most of the ports and instructed the com manders that the insurrection must be hammered out and General Lukban. the insurgent leader captured Already the movement of the troops has been begun. General Lacuna. who surrendered last May, has complained to General Chatfee that the terms upon which he and his force surrendered have not been respect ed by the Americans. He exhibits doc ument signed hv himself and General Funstan, in which he and his force are granted immunity in respect of all acts committed contrary to the laws of war. Since this paper was executed several of Lacuna's officers and men have been tried, condemned and sentenced to death for killing American prisoners.
 General Funston says that when 1t was signed he gave Lacuna orally to under stand that the killing of American pris- oners was excepted. Lacuna admits that something was said on the subject. hut says no thorough understanding was reached and he considers the written agreement binding.

will Not Honor Acquisitions.

Indianapolis. Ind, Oct. H.-t is not likely that Governor Durbin will an- nounce his decision in the matter of the iast reoufsition of Governor Beckham of Kentucky for the extradition of Messrs Tavlor and Finley until after the trial of Caleb Powers which is now in prog ress at Georgetown. It is generally un- derstood about the State House that the Governor only consented out of courtesy to tbe Kentuckians who presented the reouIsition to carefully investigate the records and that he has already read enough to convince him that he should rot horor the requisitions. Mir. Finley called at the office of the Attorney-Gen- eraI today and had talk with that of- ficial.

POWERS CONCLUDES
FURNISHES TESTIMONY IN HIS
 OWN BEHALF.
Says the Military Force Was Only to Be Used in the Event Demo- crats Tried to Forcibly
 Take Office.

Georgetown, Ky, Oct H.-This was court day and there was big crowd In attendance at the trial of Caleb Powers
 Nearly all the prisoners witnesses have al rived in Georg stown, and among them are former Adjutant General R. D. Col Her, Dr. A. P. Morgan Vance, one of the physicians who attended Goebel, and ex- Judge W. H. Yost and Harland Whitta- ker of Butler County, Taylor's home county, and now under indictment as a principal in the crime, Is here to testify in behalf of Powers. Whitaker was re- leased some time ago on a $10,0eo bond.
 When court convened this morning, Powers resumed hts testimony in chief.
 Powers said that he one ever had hls personal key to his office, except Leo Davidson, son of Assistant Secretary of State Davidson. He gave Davidson his key to keep while he was away from Frankfort from January 12 to Y. Powers said: ... l-... |
 'I want to say that there Is a possibili- ty that the shots may have been fired from the Secretary Of States once. Du- plicste keys could have been made. But when Goebel was shot I had the keys to my office in my pocket" ~-
 Powers denied most emphatically that he had ever conspired with any human being to do violence to William GoebeI or any other Democratic official. His cross- examination was conducted by Attorney Campbell.
 Powers said the military force was to be used only in the event that the Demo- crats tried to take forcible possession of the public offices before the cases of the Republican contestants had been decided by the United States Supreme Court. Pow CTS denied that there was any plan for the mountain men to capture the train upon which they were to ride. He said Governor Taylor said he had arranged for the transportation. Powers also denied that he gave Youtsey a key to his office during the month of January. He was asked why he did not put Youtsey out of his office when he found him there with a gun. Powers replied:
 'It has not been my custom in life to control the actions of men by brute force"
 At 4:1o o'clock Powers left the witness stand after having been before the jury for about twenty-four hours.
 pr. A. P Morgan Vance of Louisville. was the next witness. He said Goebel had been shot from the front.
 James Carpenter of Louisville testified that when Goebel was shot he came out of the Senate buildings and found num- Der of persons looking up at raised third story window of the executive building. This is important testimony be- cause the prosecution has made 1t point that the first floor window was open end that it was the only one open on that day After several other witnesses were heard court adjourned at $40 p. m.
 Hartland Whitaker. now under indlct- ment for the murder of Goebel and under s1o. 900 bond. will testify for the defense fnrnnrroW

PARADE LAST NIGHT.
Six Thousand Graduates and Stud
 ents Were in Line.

New Haven. Conn.,, Oct. A-Six thou sand graduates and students of Yale marched in gay parade tonight in cele- bration of the University's bi-centennial.
 The enthusiasm of the visiting gradu- ates and of the whole student body was fairly let loose and the city of New Haven took a large part in the celebra- tion. The march of the Sons of Eli was through streets bordered with blue, bril- liant with many hued lanterns and bright with electric light.
 Accompanying the Yale students and graduates were representatives of the military and naval forces of the State while several of Yale's sister institutions of learning contributed their quota of members of the student body to assist in the academic parade. Harvard. Prince ton. Trinity and Wesleyan were repre- sented and their costumes were emble- matic of their respective institutions.
 The parade was spectacular in the ex- treme. All the periods of the history of Yale and the country in the last 200 years were symbolized, from the Pequot Indian garb of the seniors to the caps and gowns of blue worn by the under graduates. Each department of the university was

PANAMA IS IN TREMBLING.
The City Fears an Attack from the
 Colombian Rebels.

Colon, Colombia, Oct. A.-The anxious and prolonged uncertainty regarding the date upon which the insurgents will prob ably attack the city of Panama still ex- ists, resulting in a wearisome tension productive of disastrous results to the commerce. of the isthmus. Merchants and tradesmen If every description are complaining of the unexampled dullness of trade.
 The recent doubling of impo.t duties on all goods and of the liquor taxes will not be likely, 1t Is thought, to result in @ proportionate increase of revenue. On the contrary many foreign orders have been cancelled.
 The United States battlcship Iowa, the British sloop of war Icarus and the French second class cruiser Protet at Panama and the United States gunboat Machias and the French cruiser Suchet at Colon continue to await the development of events.
 Friday night a large number of insur- gents were seen at Empire, an impor- tnt railway station near Panama: but they disappeared upon the approach of government troops. Yesterday another body of insurgents was seen at Fanfar. less than half a mile from the La Boca wharf on the outskirts of Panama. Fan far is where the insurgents posted their artillery when they shelled La Boca last year.

An Apparently Authorized State

 Louisville, Ky, Oct. H.-The following apparently authorized statement appears in The Times today. touching the sup posed candidacy of MT Henry Watterson for the Goverrorship of Kentucky:
 MT. Watterson has reason to be proud of the response made by the press of the country to a publication obviously hostile in spirit and purpose which proclaimed him a candidate cOnsecutively for Gov ernor of Kentucky and President of the United States. But as he himself has uttered no word nor made any sign of authorization. he should not be held to account for any statement emanating from such a source. Every man has a right to be his own mouthpiece and in- terpreter. The editor of The Courier Courier Journal has not been suspected of being Intellectually either deaf or dumb and doubtless In his own time and in his own way. he will acquaint the public with whatever 1t may be concerned to know of his aims and aspirations, in ease he has any"
