WOLCOTT THE WINNER,
Ex-Senator's Machine Nicely Runs the
Colorado Republican Convention.

Denver Oct. l.-Former United States
Senator Edward o. Wolcott won a de-
cisive victory today in the contest before
the republican state central committee
between the rival factions in this city, and
afterward in the state convention. The
committee. by vote of Il to IS, placed
the Wolcott delegates on the temporary
roll call of the convention and the conven-
ton by n unanimous vote made the tenn
porary roll call permanent. No opportu-
nifty was given the antiWolcott delega-
ton TO make contest before the conven-
ton. MIR. Wolcott was chosen temporary
chairman without opposition and in
carefully prepared speech he criticised
his opponents in the party and pleaded for
harmony
a strongly worded resolution indorsing
President Roosevelt for reelection was
unanimously adopted without reference
to the committee on resolutions.
Only one office, that of the justice of the
supreme court is to be filled this year,
and to this John Campbell was honored
with denomination by reclamation.
The convention adjourned after adopting
platform, which is in part as follows:
I'VE cannot meet without sending our
greeting to Theodore Roosevelt, president
OF the United States, and we approve with
pride his splendid administration, his high
and patriotic purposes, and renew here
our devotion to the principles he repre-
sents and which he has so patriotically eX-
emplitied in the splendid administration
which he has given to the whole country,
and we particularly approve and COM
| mend his devotion to law and order, the
| effort he has made to bring all persons,
| rich and poor alike, in obedience to it,
| and within its protection and power"
! The remainder of the platform is devot-
| ed to state issues, particularly concerning
| the recent charter election in Denver, re-
| garding which the document denounces
| in unmeasured terms the outrageous vio-
| laion of election laws by the democratic
party in the city of Denver, the flagrant
| and open use of the police in ballot box
stufiing, and arresting disinterested and
| ,atriotic citizens etc.

BIG STRIKE THREATENED
Chicago Hears Packers May Be Tied
Up, but 1t Isn't Known Here.

Chicago Sept 3O-Every packing
plant in the United States is threat
ened with a tieup, with a strike Of
butchers and affiliated workmen
time in history unless the owners yield
to demands of the Amalgamated Meat
Cutters and Butchers workmen of
America.
: While the packers are willing to pay
the wages asked, a hitch in negotia-
tions has arisen over the demand OF the
packers that the butchers increase
their amount of work. Every lodge of
butchers in the country has been asked
to vote on the demand of the packers,
pnd meetings will be neld for the pur-
pose throughout the country tomor-
Eow If the vote shall be unfavorable
it is likely a general strike will be Or
dered affecting more than $4,000 men.
The situation developed today, after
the executive committee of the Anal
gamated Meat Cutters and Butchers
Worl1men had conferred Saturday with
representatives of the packing indus
tries on the demands made by the un-
ion some weeks ago. Saturday the for
NAL demand for a 10 per cent. increase
was reiterated. 1t was accompanied by:
the butchers statement that they had
shown conclusively the national union
was capable of controlling it's members
and is in a position to assure the pack

ing the life of the proposed agree
ment.
The packers representatives an
swered the butchers would be paid $5
a day under certain conditions, and the
settlement Of the controversy depends
On the reception these conditions meet
at the hands Of the union rank and file.
After the conference Saturday Mi.
chael Donnelly, president of the butch
ers, and members of the executive
committee sent kilograms to every To-.
cal lodge of butchers in the United
States detailing the condition of af-
fairs and ordering 4 vote on the pack.

WEST is NOT HURT.
Chicago Finanoier Says Eastern
Squeeze Will Not Be Felt Here.

Chicago, Oct. President John
j. Mitchell. of the Illinois Trust and
Savings bank declares the western
business situation unshaken by the
panicky conditions in eastern security
markets.
The conditions here" he said, ARE
sound, and there is no reason why
business interests out here should be
anxious. Chicago banks are in good
shape. and have ample means with
which to take care of legitimate en-
terprises
Il do not expect a pinch at any time.
We have not experienced the usual
pressure from borrowers. The grain
men have taken little money this fall,
and brokerage houses here are carry
Ing few loans. This will show that
Chicago and the west have little in
terest in the stock market. Chicago
hanks have loaned considerable money
in the east on the high rates offered,
but not enough to crowd themselves
Mr.. Mitchell thinks stagnation will
follow cessation of the break In stocks,
ana he does not look for great activity
Until after the presidential election.

RlOTlNG AT THE 500.
Closing of Great Plants Caused Disor-
der and Troops Ordered Out
Receiver Named,

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 30.-A bulletin to
the evening News from Sault Ste.
Marie says that troops have been or
dered out to control the mob which is
rioting in the Canadian 500. The police
are unable to cope with the rioters.
A dispatch just received from Sault
Ste. Marie by the News says the rioters
arc attacking the militia at the works.,
The soldiers, who are being lombard
ed with rocks and all sorts of missiles,
have refrained from firing up to the
time the dispatch was filed.
A mob Of discharged employees of the
Consolidated Lake Superior company,
after being put off with promises when
they demanded wages, this morning
broke away from all restraint the po-5
lice could exert and smashed every
window in the Office building Of the
company, charged upon the street cars
and demanded that the conductors and
motormen join them. They were only
prevented from doing further damage
by a clever ruse Of one Of the COM
pany's officials, who turned in fire
alarm to divert attention.
Almost every man in the crowd was
armed and in an Ugly mood. A de-
termined assault was made upon the
entrance to the building, but the door
was defended by those inside, who fired
a large number Of shots, none Of which
took effect.
LdSC hight Il hardware STORE was
broken into and every gun, revolver
and considerable ammunition stolen.
The local militia company, which has
been called out is totally incapable Of
coping with the situation. The author
tiles have telegraphed Toronto for more
troops. All saloons We're ordered
closed. The mob is now marching down
upon a saloon near the conpany's s
| works, whose owner enraged the men
| by Offering to cash their checks for 10
| cents on the dollar. The crowd Of idle
| men filed down the streets and more
rioting is sure to ensue, as the police
are helpless and the town completely
! terrOriZed.

say about Hawaiian coffee: Stock of
Hawaiians in first hands today is 1900

coffees in New York have retained their
firmness but Europe is weaker. The
future course of the market depends in
large measure upon estimates as to
the size Of the 19O4-5 yield, and the ex-
pectation is general that enormous
crops of the past will not be repeated.

TRAGIC DEATH OF AkEY
Police Believe He Was Murdered b,
Tranps for His Money, -

Tramps for His Money. -
SIOUX CITY, IOWA.-Later reports
from Yankton tend to confirm the belief
of the police that the dead body found
near Utica is that of William Akey, who
disappeared from Luton a week ago.
There were gashes in the head. A shoe
was found forty feet from the body and
the cap two miles farther on. The mans
pockets were rifled. 1t is the theory here
that Akey was cumming his way on
freight, when tramps found he had $500 in
his pockets, took the money, threw him
out, and afterwards the shoe which they
had removed, thinking to find mora
money; that they later found his cap In
the car and threw it out. IT..

State Viii Not Send Regiment to Par

LAKE CITY MINN.-The report to the
effect that a regiment would be sent to
st. Louis this spring to attend the dedi-
cation ceremonies of the fair Is without
foundation. An invitation has been re-
ceived by Governor Van SAINT, but will
have to be declined owing to an already
too heavy drain on the national guard
appropriation. The only cost. would be
for transportation. as the exposition man
agenent will provide quarters and sub
sistence. 1t is estimated the expense
would amount to $500 for the trans

the past the opening day has come on the
