RIOT NEAR WORLDS FAIR
CROWD HAD GATHERED TO SEE
BULL FIGHT.
Governor Ordered the Performance
Stopped-25oo Men and Boys Un-
able to Get Their Money Blackstone
Fired the MISUNDERSTANDING After
Mob-Fire Engine Stuck in Mud.

st. Louis, June 6.-Incensed over
their failure to see a genuine Spanish
bull fight" which the authorities had
ordered stopped, riot was started in
an arena near the worlds fair grounds
this evening by a crowd of $500 men
and boys who were unable to get their
money back and the building was
burned to the ground. The price of adj
mission charged was one dollar. -Four
men were placed under arrest by the
authorities of st. Louis county, charg-
ed with the destruction of property. The
crowd, thinking these men were con-
nected with the show, made an at
tempt to mob them and in their en-
counter with the deputy sheriffs a num-
Der were roughly handled and some re-
ceived serious injuries. The building
is said to have cost $1,000. 1t is total
loss, with no insurance.
Governor Had Forbidden It,
The initial performance by the com
pany of Spanish bull fighters had been
advertised widely, but the governor, in
response to numerous complaints, or
dered that it be. not allowed to take
place. Despite these orders a large
crowd assembled in the arena at the
advertised time of opening. Before
the regular performance a number Of
cowboys drove in some bulls which
they ran around the arena in true wild
west style. The crowd soon became
tired of this and called for the bull
fight. The announcement was then
made that the bull fight would be pro-
ceeded with AS the matadors came
into the ring a county official stepped
up to the announcer and handed him a
paper informing him that the proposed
show could not take place. When this
became known to the crowd they leap
ed into the arena and demanded the
return of their their money.
Woodwork Set on Fire.
Failing to get this, the crowd went
to the office. which was located in a
small building outside the area, and
began to stone the structure. This was
followed by attempts to burn the arena,
which is an immense building con
structed of pine. Bits of burning paper
were thrown at the woodwork anC
finally some one went inside and drop
ped a lighted match in a pile of hay
under the arena. The whole structure
was soon aire and before long was il
flames.
The fire engine that responded to the
alarm stuck in the mud and there was
nothing to stop the progress of the
flames. The fire department of the
worlds fair was called out to protec
the fair buildings should it become
necessary, but the wind blew in an
other direction.

The warehouse, containing 10000
barrels of whisky, was instantly a
seething caldron, and it was known
that no one inside the big structure
could live moment. The warehouse
in crushing the small structure nearby
set that on hre, and the whisky from
the bursting barrels flooded every
thing in that section. Large streams
ran toward the river, and in short
time th:re was foot of whisky in the
cattle pens east of the warehouse. 1t
was burning furiously, and the cries
of the 1920 steers, chained fast, were
pitiable to hear. Their distress lasted
but a few moments, however, for they
were soon killed. either roasted or suf-
located by the fumes.
The two fermenting houses were
speedily destroyed. The flames therat-

is installed. However, the firemen

when the explosion and collapse came
Knoll was crushed to the earth and al
most instantly the place where he hac
fallen was enveloped in flames.
1t is believed that the government
men have all escaped. The gaugers, II
of whom worked at the warehouse, haC
completed their work and gone about

DEMOCRATIC CONFERENCES
Parker and Sheehan in Council-Hiu Has
Talk with Jerome.

New York, Sept. 16.-After his ar
rival here on the yacht Sapphire Judge
Parker was driven to the Astor hotel
AS he crossed the dock to his carria &c
the judge was accosted by boat keep
er at the pier, dressed in Overalls and
with his sleeves rolled up, who greeted
him, saying: Judge, let me shake
your hand" Certainly" the judge
replied, and they shook hands. The
dock workmen gave three cheers as
Parker started away, and he respond
ed by raising his hat.
Arriving at the Astor Judge Parker
was greeted by ex-senator Davis. the
vice presidential nominee, and Will
lam Il. Sheehan, who accompanied him
to his apartment and went into confer
ence with him. Senator German. it
was said, was expected later in the
day. The object of this visit, as well
as of others which are expected to fol
low, is to meet persons with whom
the candidate desires to confer or who
wish to consult with him. On one of
the trips it is believed the Democratic
nominee will have talk with ex-
President Cleveland.
Ex-senator Hill called upon District
Attorney William Travers Jerome at
the latter's office. The conference
which lasted an hour and a half, it
was said, was not by appointment the
senator coming of his own volition. AT
it's conclusion Hill was asked if he
was the bearer of message to the
district attorney offering him the nom
ination for governor. He declined to
talk, however, and Jerome likewise re.
fused to tell what was discussed at the
conference. In reply to a question az
to whether he had been invited to see
Judge Parker he said: II have no,

AMES MUST STAND TRIAL
Judge Harrison Refuses to Nolle PROSE-
the Cases Against the Ex-Mayor
of Minneapolis.

Minneapolis, Sept. 16. - Judge A.
M. Harrison has denied the motion
by County Attorney Boardman to nollc
PROSE- the ten indictments against ex-
Mayor A. A. Ames for bribery and
corruption. The court handed down
a memorandum in which it was point
ed out that Ames had been convicted
once, that the reversal by the supreme
court was on technical grounds not af-
fecting the merits of the case. and that
on retrial there had been a disagree,
ment of the jury.
1t does not appear, says the judge,
that any of the witnesses have dis
appeared or that there is. good reason
why the evidence should not be sub
mitted to jury.

speech he may make he will not
discuss issues to any great extent.
Which is very wise of Mr. Waiter

centrating their word batteries upon

The unanimous action of the cOnven-
ton in the nomination of Lieutenant
Governor Frank w. Higgins for the

last moment, as the convention was
preparing for the roll call called for by
the resolution of the Kings county
delegation.
Knew He Was UP Against 1t.
1t was when, as he himself said, it
became ''obvious to his practiced ear
that the convention was almost solid
" against him; after his name had
been placed in nomination in a speech
by William A. Prendergast, of Brook
Ign, that Woodruff took the platform,
withdrew his name from further con-
sideration, moved that the nomination
of Lieutenant Governor Higgins be
made unanimous, and pledged the full
est effort of himself and his Kings
county forces in aid Of the ticket about
to be nominated. There was no con-
test whatever over any other place up
on the ticket.

MANY SUBSCRIPTIONS RECEIVED
Proposed Memorial to the Late Sena-
tor Hanna

Mr.. William G. Oswald, secretary of the
Marcus A. Hanna Memorial Chair Asso-
citation, after spending several days in this
city, has gone to New York, where he will
remain for some time. While here he re-
ceived many substantial subscriptions to-
ward the fund for the establishment of a
memorial chair of political science in the
Western Reserve University. This chair
is regarded as peculiarly suitable for the
memory of the late senator, as he proposed
to devote the last years of his life to the
study and application of political theories
to the conditions of the industrial world
with which he was so well acquainted.
The amounts of the subscriptions that
have already been received for the memoir
ial have not been made public, and 1t Is not
expected that they will be published. That
course was followed in the case Of the Nc
Kinley memorial and it received the ap-
proval in that case of Mr.. Hanna himself
It is expected that there will be large
number of subscriptions received in New
York. The $15O,000 which 1t is desired to
raise will, 1t is expected, be made up Of
a large number Of subscriptions.
