EXCITING MAYORALTY
 FIGHT
Tom Johnson Opposes Congressman
 Burton in Cleveland.

Cleveland, O., Sept 8.-The contest between Mayor Tom L. Johnson and Congressman Theodore F. Burton for mayor of Cleveland promises to be the most exciting political event in the his tory of this city, not excepting cam- paign some years ago in which the late Senator Hanna was the central figure. President Roosevelt, it is hoped my republican leaders, may be in- duced to speak in favor of Burton when in this city on the coming tour of inspection of the inland waterways commission through the great lakes and the Mississippi, and Mayor John- son is said to have assurances that William J. Bryan and other democrats of national prominence will come here
 to make speeches in his behalf. Mir Burton's political managers as- sert that hls probable candidacy for
 the seat of Senator Foraker is in no way affected by his race for mayor whatever the result of the election in
 November may be and that he will retain his seat in congress and the chairmanship of the rivers and har- bors committee at least until after the
 mayoralty election.

.rade Takes Life.

KittaninS, Pa, Sept S.-Crazed by his unintentional shooting of his com panion, Robert Ramsey, IT,, whom he wounded probably fatally last night while both were engaged in noctur- nal raid on farm house, Howard Riley committed suicide by jumping in front of an express train early to- day. Ramsey and Riley had started on lark and when passing farm house decided to secure some eatables' for a feast Ramsey entered tn farm house and Riley the chicken coop. While Riley was in the coop Ramsey opened the door and as he struck match, Riley, thinking 1t was the owner, shot him through the breast. Riley, when he found he had shot his friend, became almost insane and tried to shoot himself. Ramsey, although terribly injured, succeeded in getting the weapon from him.
 Riley took the injured man home, then hurried for doctors, remaining near the bedside until early this morn ing. He then went home, told his mother of the shooting, changed his clothing, walked out to the railroad track, threw himself in front of a train and was ground to pieces.
 Ramsey is still alive, but his recov- cry is doubtful

BUBONIC PLAGUE PROGRESS
.SUSPECTSAREIsOLATEI
Nine of the Eighteen Vic tins Have Died from the
 Disease.

San Francisco, Sept. S.-One addit- ional case of bubonic plague was chart ed yesterday by the board of health, and four more suspected cases have been isolated, and are under observa- tion The board has authorized the es- innate of temporary hospital camp at Ingleslde. Thence the 750 inmates of the city and county hospital will be moved, and the hospital buildings, old frame structures long ago condemned, will probably be burned.
 The board, at meeting attended by President Regensbergger of the state board of health, and Colonel Austin of the marine hospital service, adopted a report of the plague situation prepared by Health Officer Watkins.
 It sayss
 "The first case of bubonic plague ap- peared on May 27 at the United States marine hospital in a Finnish sailor taken from the tug Wizard. Thereaf- ter, no cases appeared in the city until August 12, when two cases were re- ported from the north beach district. Immediately, the officials of all hos- pitals and dispensaries were warned to be on the lookout for similar cases, with the result that to date, IS authen- tic cases in all have been reported. Of these nine are still living and in fair way to recovery.
 "There exists to-day no doubt of the causes of the so-called bubonlc plague, nor of the means by which It may be eradicated. Wherever interna- tional commerce exists, and in propor- ton to the volume of that commerce, the rat and the diseases of the rat, one of which is plague, are bound to ap- pear. There are said to be some five varieties of rat flea, of which two will bite men. The plague bicillus is trans mitted by the flea of these two vari- ties to men. Other modes of infection exist, but are very much less fre- quent."

 The victorious United States Palma trophy team left for home today. Gen. Drain received a telegram from Presl- dent Roosevelt stating he would re- ceive the team at Oyster Bay Monday afternoon
 Speaking at a dinner given to the American ritlemen, Gen. Drain said no one could ask for fairer treatment than his men had received, or fairer opponents. The Americans won, he said, but the Canadians might defeat them tomorrow and the Australians or British the next day. While each was proud of his own country, there was a tie of common speech and blood which bound the representatives of the four competing countries together In peace, they might be much to one another, adn the Anglo-Saxon blood which showed in their veins should not leap the less quickly to aid each other in war than in peace.

GREAT CHANGE
FOR THE BETTER
TRAIN LOAD or PASSENGERS
CHRISTMAS WITHOUT A
SINGLE DRUNK.

The effect aof temperance, sentiment
was manifested Christmas day in the
travel of the railroads. AS q general
thing the conductors and train officials
regard with anything but pleasant an
ticipation the coming Of the holidays
because the increased travel means
longer hours, increased dangers OF
accidents and greater worry and an
noyance. But above all, this season
is dreaded by them because OF the
drunkenness and the disorder OF the
travellers making 1t frequently neces
sary to eject ohstreporous passengers
and to quell incipient riots Some
times there is gun play.
But there was great change Tor
the better in the Christmas that mas
lust passed. Conductor Witt, OF the
Louisville & Nashville railroad, hauled
seven passenger coaches loaded 10
the guards wednesday and he states
that there was not single intoxi-
Gated or noisy passenger in the hst'
There was not an accident IN all Tn"
crowd of travelling humanity to mar
the day. In this train there were
passengers from Nashville and all the
intermediate points, some places ]"
close proximity to liquors. but the
growth OF temperance sentiment mar
been so great that there was prac
tfcally no thanking up"
