If any reader Of this article should

Bile. The way to Kill a snake is not to
attempt to crush its head, the bones Of
which are very hard. but to strike the
tail, where the spinal cord is but thinly
covered by bone and suffers readily
from injury. 1t is the same with an
eel. Hit the tail two or three times
against any hard substance. and the
eel quickly dies.
The boas are not venomOus. but their
fangs are sufficiently powerful to in
fiict serious wounds.

1t is unfortunate in the greatness of

there should be II consistency i'll the

superseded by unity. The editorial page
has become il reflex of the combined
opinions of the members of the corpora

drawn sabres resulted in tina dispersal of
the rioting mobs here early yesterday
morning.
During the rioting one policeman was
shot through the body and face. His
comrades, having exhausted their am
munition, fled and the wounded man
was overwhelmed, kicked and stoned.
Another policeman sought refuge in
the attic OF cafe, whereupon the social
lists sacked the establishment, exploded
q lamp which set fire to the building,
and completed its ruin. The flames
forced the rioters to retire.
Another mob proceeded to the North
ern Railway Station, where it collided
with the p lice. Revolver shots were
exchanged and the rioters seized police.
man, beat him until he was unconscious
and left him bleeding on the ground.
After many rioters had been wounded
the mob dispersed.
The Socialist incident Wednesday has
aroused intense excitement and there
are fears of further disturbance and COM
plications. The Minister of War has
ordered the militia reserves of IS regi-
colors, and gendarmes of all the divisions
are held in instant readiness to march

COUGhulN IN JAMAICA.
Man for Whom Fortune in Rewards Has Been
Offered Is Now Planter.

Chicago, April l0.-Daniel Coughlin,
the notorious fugitive, who has evaded
trial for bribery for years, and who was
a prominent figure in the Cronin case,
owns banana plantation in Jamaica,
and is operating it himself. This informa.
ton was contained in letter received
in Chicago yesterday from Jamaica.
This Communication settles years OF
speculation as to where the fugitive had
gone. Time and again, seemingly an
thoritative telegrame have come from
various parts of the world, but in each
case it was proved later that either the
reports were erroneous or Coughlin had
lodged the authorities and left his where
abouts in doubt.
One report had it that Coughlin was
dead in Venezuela. and another that he
was sojourning in Seattle. Other reports
have been shown to be as baseless.
Ever since Coughlin and William Arm.
strong fled from the city and from trials
on bribery and conspiracy charges, the
police in all the cities and towns of the
country have kept on the lookout for
traces OF Coughlin, The search has been
zealously universal, for a reward of thou
sands of dollars was awaiting the person
fortunate enough to apprehend him.

CAPT. DE vRIES PAYS FINE.
Plea Of NoIo Contendere is Entered to the
Charge Preferred Against Him.

Spokane, April lO.-In the federal
court, on a plea of nolo condendere,
Capt. J. DeVries, master of the Dutch
steamship Wilhelmina, who is charged
with having landed three contraband
Cinnamon on American soil, paid fine
of 81 500.
1.-The plea of nolo contendere is an I'M.
usual one," said Mr.. Ballenger to the
correspondent. ut neither admits nor
denies the charge, but consents to the
imposing of punishment. 1t was enter
ed for the purpose of speedy settle
ment, and with the hope that the ac-
cused would escape without imprison-
ment. Capt. DeVries is not guilty of the
charges made against him, and l am
fully convinced that, if brought to trial
the case would never reach the jury, but
he could not afford to wait for that, as
the Wilhelmina is ready to sail, and,
rather than take chances of losing his
charter or to pay big demurrage in delay,
it was economy to dispose of the charges
in the manner it was DONE"

LAYS BLAME ON ARMY.
Mai. Gardner Says Officers in Islands are Cruel
inexperienced, incompetent.

Washington. d. c., April ll.-Secre-
tary Root has transmitted to congress
sensational report made by Maj. Corne-
Illus Gardner, governor OF the province
of Tayabas, in which he places all blame
for continuance of warfare and revolu-
ton in the islands on incompetent
officers of the army.
Gardner in his report says the officers
of the United States army have been
guilty of gross mismanagement OF affairs
entrusted to them for the paciication OF
the islands and have brutally treated the
natives. He says that all favorable sen.
timent toward the United States is being
DESTROYED by the course pursued and
that deep hatred toward the govern
ment is being engendered.
One feature on which Gardner in his
report lays particular stress is that of the
extensive burning of barrios in trying to
lay waste the country, SO that 1t would
be impossible for insurgents to subsist.
He says in those districts the natives
have been repeatedly tortured. The only
ameliorating excuse he can offer, he
says, is the incompetency of inexperienc.
ed lieutenants who are in command OF
posts and have not had sufficient exper-
fence to distinguish between friendly
and unfriendly natives.
What action congress will take in the
matter can only bea matter of conjecture,
as many of those who have read the re-
port are inclined to discredlt its reliable
ity, owing to the violence of its state
ments and vituperation shown against
the regular army in general.

Geo. E. Chamberlain of Portland
Unanimously Nominated
for Governor.

Portland, Ore, April H. The Demo-
cratic state convention met in this city
at IL o'clock Thursday morning, effected
permanent organization, adopted plat
form, nominated George + Chamberlain
of Portland for governor, by reclamation,
and at 8 80 p. m. adjourned until tomor-
row, when the ticket will be completed.
The platform favors tariff for revenue
only and opposes any protection what
ever to trusts, combines and corporations
with which the Republican party is in
iniquitous alliance and which partner
ship is calculated to overthrow Repub.
lican institutions and subvert the liber-
ties of the people. 1t favors placing on
the Tree list all trust-made articles OF
every kind.
On the Philippine question the plat
form says: We believe the true policy
is to prepare the people of those islands
for self-government as speedily as posi-
BILE, and when so prepared to grant them
their independence, retaining such coal
ing stations and ports as may be neces-
sary to protect these islands from foreign
interference and to MAINTAIN our trade
relations in the Orient.
For Chinese Exclusion.
The platform demands the passage Of
the Mitchell-Kahn Chinese exclusion bill
and also legislation to restrict the immi-
grafton of japanese labor; favors the
election of United States senators by
popular vote; the initiative and re'eTen
dunn system; the speedy construction of
the Nicaragua canal and the creation by
congress of department of labor in
charge of a secretary entitled to seat in
the cabinet. 1t opposes the leasing of
the public domain to individuals or cor
porations, and the ship subsidy bill, now
before congress, and declares against any
such combinations of competing rail
roads as was made in the formation of the
Northern Securities Company. The plat
form demands The improvement of the
Columbia river from its mouth to the
head OF navigation, and declares strongly
in favor of economical administration Of
state affairs.
