As Lieutenant Smith was made ad-
jutant for the New Mexico militia,
and, in that capacity given mount,
it is thought the following dispatch
clipped from the Ell Paso Herald, is
a twisted account of his accident:
Austin, Tex, Aug. 10.-The New
Mexico and Arizona troops will be
relieved from duty tomorrow to pre-
pare for their home journey, leaving
Sunday or Monday.
Lieutenant J. l.. Smith, of the
New Mexico cavalry, was seriously
injured yesterday during the maneu-
vers. The girdle of his saddle broke,
throwing him from his horse. His
head struck a rock and the wonder
is that he was not killed. He was
conveyed to a hospital, where he was
unconscious for several hours, and
it looked for a time as if he would
die. He is better today

BRYAN DEMANDS HONESTY.
Believes Sullivan and Hopkins Rob-

Political Rights.

Paris France, Aug. 13.-Wm. ].
Bryan today gave out a statement
concerning the controversy respect
ing the Illinois Democratic National
Committeeman, that mas grown out
of Mr. Bryan's letter demanding the
resignation of National Committee
man Roger Sullivan, to which demand
Mr.. Sullivan returned a prompt refu-
sal and stated that Mr.. Bryan had
been misinformed regarding the sit
uation by NJ F. Dunlap. Mr.. Bryan's
rejoinder says that no one but him
self is responsible for the informa-
ton in his letter, and that he intend
ed to ask Sullivan to resign before
he should see Dunlap.
into this contest because
Mr.. Bryan added, Il intended 20
go into this contest because 1 believ-
ed that Roger Sullivan and John
Hopkins had deliberately robbed the
Democrats of Illinois of their polit-
ical rights, and l still believe so. To
secure political power by force or by
fraud ought to be as disgraceful in
money by force or fraud. 1 cannot
conceive of any possible excuse Sui
livan can make for remaining on the
national committee. If that body is
unable to rid itself of the leadership
of men like Sullivan who seek to
control the party organization in Or
der to advance their corporate inter
ests, it might as well dissolve. While

chance to retire without fight, it
is probably just as well hat he re-
fused, for if we must fight to purify

Bryan Doesn't Look Big to Him.
Chicago, Aug. 13.-National Com
mitteeman Sullivan, wnen interview
ed today as to Mr.. Bryan's latest ut
terance, declared that there was nc
truth in it. He said: "Mr. Bryan got
all of his information from Dunlap
and is doing what Dunlap wants. His
statement is not true as to the con-
troll of the state convention two years
ago. Bryan is not bigger than the
entire Democratic party" Sullivan
referred to a letter which he said Mr.
Bryan had written to Ben M. Cald-
well, Democratic nominee for con-
gressman of the 21st district, in which
he said Bryan admitted that he had
received all his information from Mr.
Dunlap.

RIOTS IN NEW YORK.
Caused by Refusal of Passengers to
Pay Double Fare on Surface Cars.

l
New York, Aug. 13.-Disturbances
on the Coney Island surface cars and
| elevated tracks, because of Justice
Gaynor's statement of Saturday that
the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Co did
not have a right to demand double
fare to the island, lasted from early
Sunday morning until today.
Cars were stalled on the lines ex-
tending for miles, while the Brook
lyn Rapid Transit company's inspec-
tors argued and parleyed with pass
engers to pay second fare, and fin
ally wound up by dragging the OBJ
streperous passengers from the cars
and throwing them into the streets
by thousands. The company did this
with the aid of $50 special police
men and their corps of inspectors.
A continuous riot was in progress
along the main lines of travel. Two
women were injured, one SO serious
ly that she may die. Innumerable per-
sons were bruised and several were
arrested on charges of assault.
Among those who were put off the
trolley cars was President Bird s.
Coler of the Borough of Brooklyn. Mr.,
Coler then addressed the crowd and
told them not to pay a cents fare.
The police took an active part in
the trouble in the evening by arrest
ing two Brooklyn Rapid Transit SUI
perintendents and three inspectors
ami a motorman or two for not NOV
ing the cars. Blocking the highways
was the charge against them.
