Monterey, Mexico, April 2.-During
the celebration here today of the VIC
tory of the republic with troops under
General Diaz, at Puebla, April 2, 1867,
political capital was made of the affair
by the partisans of the various candi-
dates for governor of the state Of Neuvo

formed and marched to the residence Of
Governor Reyes and hurled a shower
of stones at the governor and shouted
Death to the REYES The police were
sent for and in the mix UP that ensued
in dispensing the mob, two policemen
and two citizens were killed and many
wounded. Quiet now prevails, but it is
not unlikely that the trouble may break

high and a strong feeling prevails
against Reyes
In the morning, there was a band
concert on the Haragosa plaza and just
after the termination of the concert,
difficulties took place between the va
riOuS parties, for the governor, which
led to the formation of a large mob of
those who favored Francisco Reyes for
governor. This mob marched in a body
to Governor Reyes residence and began
to abuse him.
The governor in the meantime called
upon the police by telephone for pro-
lection n a squad Immediately re-
spOnded and began the work of disperS-
ing the mob.
A pitched battle ensued in which
stones, sticks and pistols played a prom
inent part. a large number of shots
We're exchanged between the police and
the rioteous mob and when the mob
had been dispersed, it was found that
two policemen and two citizens had
been killed and a large number of per-
sons more or less seriously wounded.
It is impossible to learn the names Of
those killed.
1t is also impossible to estimate the
number or obtain the names OF those
injured as the moi managed to make
off with their wounded comrades Late
in the day quiet a been restored
throughout the city, although there is
an under current Of i'll feeling toward
Governor Reyes which may yet assert

Mr.. Bryan referred to Governor Cum

Iowa, against the domination of the
republican party by the corporations"
and continued: He is going to try to
ingraft the Iowa idea on the national
republican platform. While he seems
destined to fail in his purpose. and
while he may support the republican
ticket, no matter how o1ious the doml-
nation Of his party by corporations may
become, let US encourage him, for every
word that he speaks in favor of tariff
reform or antitrust legislation will
have an educational influence. His
words will go on making converts, even
though he may recant, rather than
leave his party. Governor Cummins
calls himself a republican, but by show
ing his sympathy with the people as
against the corporations, he has prov
en- that he is much nearer the demo-
cratic party than the men who left US
in 1896, who in 1897 boosted of the sup
port they had given to the republican
party, and who now make their return
to the party contingent upon the party's
abandonment of the peoples interest.

a democratic expression Of democratic
principles by democrats, without cor

Among the other speakers was Gener-
al James B.. Weather.
The banquet proper was announced
as the gathering of democrats, without
regard to differences of opinion as to
party policy, but in the afternoon, a
meeting of Kansas City platform adj
herents was held at which an organiza-
ton was formed and a central commit
tee created to work to place in the next
state platform the principles of the
Kansas City platform.
Mr.. Bryan attended the meeting and
endorsed the movement. The democ-

mony, he told those present. 1T was
