Lonely Bunch Gathered Together In
City Hall Last
Night.

Stirred into action by the united
front presented by the Republicans
as the result of the Bartlesville con-
vention, call was issued yesterday
by the secretary of the local Jeffer-
son club and a lonely bunch OF the
unterrified gathered together in the
city hall last night. Boss Brady,
once more in purple and fine linen,
was the dominant figure. The dimin-
uture giant told 'em his idea of how
to do business, according to his ex-
perience with the ''big uns" at Okla
homa City the first of the week. The
"small contribution scheme of Big
Chief Bryan was broached, and when
the hat was passed around, the idea
was largely set upon, each chipping
in nickel. A cynical observer re-
marked that there were only half
dozen of the faithful on hand, and
that the fund subscribed was entirely
representative of the party.

THE ASSAULT DENIED.


Paris, August Ian official de-
NAL has been issued regarding the
rumor that Major Dreyfus had been
assaulted by a brother officer at the
Military club. The official statement
says.
According to custom, the officers
of the First cavalry gave a dinner to
newly appointed lieutenants and the
minister of war authorized the officers
upon their unanimous request, to in
vite Major Dreyfus. The dinner oc-
curred and was marked throughout by
animated sentiments of the most per-
feet good fellowship. The officers
separated about $3.50 ,. m, without
the occurrence of anything which
could give rise to the rumor put in
circulation.
Madame Dreyfus, on behalf of her
husband, and the officials of the Mill
tary club, add to the denials previous
ly given by the ministry of war The
story was invented to discredit the
major. The officers who participated
in the dinner intimate that they in
tend to hold an inquiry into the mat
ter inorder to disclose the motive
leading to the circulation of the false
report, in regard to the alleged as
sault.
An individual today smashed a win
dow in the journal in which was ex-
hibited a photograph of Dreyfus on
Devil's 5 island
In an interview Major Dreyfus de-
clared that he was absolutely aston
ished at the rumored incident,w which
was an invention throughout. He
added that the time he spent at the
Military club was most agreeable, his
comrades according him most cor
dial reception.

ICE COMBINE TESTIMONY.
Former Inside Member Tells of the
Workings of Combine.

Kansas City. Aug. l.-Operations
Of the alleged ice combine were shown
Mt the lee hearing today by the most
striking proof of trust methods that
have been offered at the hearing. B.
T. Street, now an employe of the city,
testified that in 1905 he and two other
men organized the Consumers lee Co.,
to handle natural ice and small
quantity of artificial ice. They bought
natural lee in Illinois and shipped il
here at cost of about 1925 per ton
They sold il at three dollars a ton Ia
peddlers and large buyers. In June,
1905. the witness said w. +. Lyons
came to them with a proposition Ia
raise the price to $3.50 per ton for
natural lee and four dollars a ton for
artificial ice. When his company re-
fused the witness said that Lyons
came again with warning that il
they did not raise the price the Peo-
Pies Company would underseIl then
md drive them out of business
Street said that after he and his as
sociates had repeatedly refused to
raise the price Of ice the People s
Company cut the price to two dollars
ton and eventually the Consumer.
Ice CO., was driven out Of business.

Officers Of the navy department at

and relatives of the officers on board

frantic over the reports that the
crews have arisen and killed their su-
periors.
As the correspondent was crossing

Helsingfors, Aug. 2, 80 a. NJ
Except in the vicinity of the fort.
the town presents practically a nor
NAL aspect. During the evening a
large crowd assembled on the quays,
listening to the cannonade, and watch
ing the dense columns of smoke ris-
ing from the islands. All trtaffic in
the harbor was prohibited. After
night fall, the governor issued an or
der, closing all public houses.
Regular traffic has ben resumed
with st. Petersburg. The railroad
bridge between Riekimaki and Rytty-
lac, which was blown up by members
of the 'Red Guard" has been re-
paired. Pripr to the blowing up of
this bridge, members of the ~t'Red
Guard" seized the Fredericksburg
station and stopped the st. Peters.
burg mail train.
The white flag was hoisted on one
of the islands, but il is premature to
say whether the revolutonists have
surrendered or not. In any event
however, the fire from the battle
ship Slava and another warship un-
doubtedly had its effect.
The mutineers report that the
Slava was struck several times by
their fire.
During the afternoon, boat put
ont from Svaborg and was lombard
ed. The occupants, who We're mem
bers of the "Red Guard were taken
into custody.
Last evening, the strike committee
declared a general strike to begin al

ton that otherwise, Helsingfors will
be bombarded. Up to midnight, how
ever, there were no evidences of this
strike.
