VICTIM OF REVENGE.
Jan Kubelik Forced to Abandon Con-
cert and Flee for Safety.

A cablegram from Vienna last night
says: German-Czech race hatred led to a
serious riot at Ling, the capital of Upper
Austria, today, where a mob of Infatuated
Germans, in revenge for the i'll treatment
of their compatriots at Prague, stormed
the hall in which Jan Kubelik, the b.
hemian violinist, was giving a concert,
compelling the artist to seek safety in
fight. The manager had been warned to
cancel the engagement, owing to fears OF
such demonstration, but he declined to
do SO.
Before the doors were opened the mob
attacked the carriage of the district gov
ernor, Count Wickenburg, with stones.
The police had difficulty in protecting the
count from personal injury. While the
concert was in progress a bowling mob
outside the hall made the music in
audible.
Some officers came out Of the hall and
reproached the mob for such disturb
ances. The mob then forced the police
Gordon, invaded the hall, smashed the
decorative mirrors and threw missiles at
Kubelik.
The concert was then stopped and the
audience dispersed, amid a fire of offensive
epithets. The demonstrations were contin-
ued outside the hotel where Kubelik was
staying, and the police, aided by the mayor,
mad some difficulty in dispensing the mob

for having so readily yielded to the persua-
sions of the party leaders and voting
against departmental investigation adopt

eating yourselves" The republican organi-
zation he said. was the finest in the world.
There is nothing like it, he continued,
from julius Caesar down to General
Roosevelt which latter remark provoked
much laughter. No conquering hero, said
he, ever marched before better drilled hosts

Capt. VIM. Luckett left last night for

u. S. naval yacht Mayfiower, to pilot her

Capt. Luckett's orders instruct him TO be

CASE OF o'BRIEN.
Plea of Not Guilty and Waivure of
Preliminaries

change has been made in the method
of procedure in the case of William ].
Duffy, alias O'Brien, the alleged insane
man, who shot clerk and messenger in
the War Department. 1t was the intention
of Assistant United States Attorney Given,
the prosecuting officer in charge of the
case, to have a nearing as to his sanity
in the Police Court This has been changed
because the Police Court has the case be-
fore it only for The purpose of pre-
liminary hearing. Attorney Tindall coun-
sci for the prisoner, will appear in court
tomorrow morning with his client and enter
a plea of not guilty to the charges of al
legged murderous assault. He will then
waive a preliminary hearing, and Judge
Scott will hold the prisoner for the action
of the grand jury. This proceeding will
suit the prisoner, for he has always pro-
tested that he is sane, and expressed
desire to have the shooting case heard, as
he prefers the penitentiary to the asylum.
The question of bond in the case will have
to be determined by Judge Scott. 1t Is the
intention of Prosecuting Attorney Given to
ask that bond be fixed at an amount that
will make 1t almost impossible for Duffy to
secure his release from Jail. 1t Is stated
that Duffy made complaint against the
management of ST. Elizabeth's several
years ago. He called at the Police Court
at that time and wanted a warrant for all
the doctors and others connected with the
institution. His request was refused.

Personal and General.

The consignees of the Spanish schooner
Antoni de Ali, which is on her way from
Spain to Alexandria with a cargo of salt,
are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the
schooner at the capes. She has aboard
nearly six hundred tons of salt, the greater
portion Of which will be used in the pack
ing of shad and herring on the Potomac

the lookout for the schooner, and will tow
her up the Potomac soon as she arrives
This is the first direct Importation of salt

The wholesale fish market on the wharf
at the foot of 18th street southwest was
a busy place this morning, there being
large throng of hucksters and uptown fish
dealers on hand laying in full stocks to
meet the demands of trade. The bidding
was spirited at the fish auctions, and prices
were on the advance, herring selling at
$3.50 per hundred and there being but few
shad, except those from the far south, on
sale. The supply on hand was small, yes
terdays storms preventing the working of
the nets.
One vessel, laden with about 800 bushels
of oysters, arrived at the oyster wharf last
night. and while the market is by no means
overstocked the demand continued light
Oysters 1t is stated, can be bought at the
Wnar1 as low as 4Sc. per buShel. but the
better grades sell from Coo. to 73c. per
bushel.
The schooner Col. j Merrick while on her
way up the river to this city yesterday

Presidents Use of Yachts.

The right of the President,ef the United
States to utilize the yachts Mayfiower and

Missouri who argued that there was no au-

In the course of his remarks Mr. Griggs

Mr.. Griggs said he, of course did not in

Deadly Toy Caps Explosion.

A dispatch from Chicago last night
says: Three persons, two of them being
boys, were killed and eight other en-
ployes were injured today by an explos-
ion of toy pistol caps which completely
demolished the two-story brick manu-
featuring plant OF the Chicago Toy Nov
city Company at Western avenue and
West 18th street. The wrecked building
caught fire Immediately after the explos-
ion. and the bodies of the dead were so
badly burned and mangled that il was
impossible to recognize them except by
remnants of clothing.
The building was occupied by three
firms, employing nearly 100 persons, and
1t is believed some others may have been
killed, but until the debris which is piled
twenty feet high can be cleared away the
exact number of dead cannot be ascer-
tanned.

lions had been deeply stirred, and long
fasting is apt to produce hysteria.
Rush to the Eating Stands.
The explosion of a cannon was a signal
that the obligations of Ramazan had been
fulfilled; that the fast was broken, and
thousands of people rushed pell-mell to the
eating stands to gorge themselves with
sweetmeats and other food. The more dig
nified and aristocratic portion of the people
calmly sat down again upon their rugs ana
mats and watched their servants unload
baskets of provisions upon tablecloths. nap
kins and trays which they spread upon the
ground. Not less than seven or eight thou
sand people INDUCED in this picnic, but
there was no wine or beer; nothing stronger
than tea or coffee, because the Koran for
bids it.
And after their feast at the mosque the
rest of the day was spent in rejoicing. Gay
banners of all colors were displayed from
the windows of Mohammedan houses, fes-
toons of flowers were hung over the doors
and from the window slls; boys were seen
rushing through the streets loaded with
bouquets sent from friend to friend with
compliments and congratulations; fre-
