LISBON. STREETS
run With BLOOD.
TROOPS FIRE INTO MoBs FOL-
LOWING ELECTION I Is - MON
ARCHIsTs WIN AT PoIsLs. u

Lisbon, April g. 6This city iB in q
state of intense excitement over the
election riots of last night. No official
statement Of the killed and wounded
has yet been issued but one observer
says the streets were literally red
with blood. The counting OF the bal
lots proceeds slowly. Thus far not a
single republican candidate has been
declared elected NJ 8 5N
With the exception of "a few minor
disorders In disaffected districts, the
elections were conducted peaceably.
Last night however, rioting broke out
in different parts of the city as
though by preconocrted plan.
Troops which had been patrolIins
the streets and others held In reserve
were called out at once. Repeated
charges into mobs, which filed the
streets, had no effect. Persons In the
mob used sticks and stones and what
ever weapons were at hand.
Troops Finally Ordered TO Fire.
Finally the troops were ordered to
fire, with the result that several were
KILLED and wounded The exact num-
ber is not known as the rioters carried
the dead and wounded away.
This determined action on the part
of the authorities seemed to have the
desired effect and the mobs soon
were well dispersed At a late hour
most of the republican voters had
gone to their homes, but bands of
youths continued to demonstrate be-
fore the churches. They confined their
disorders to shouting.

PANIC CLAIMS
MANY VICTIMS
NEARLY EVERY HOME IN ELLIS
WORTH, ILL, HAS MEMBER
ON INJURED THRoNG.

Ellsworth, ILL.,, April g. Nearly ev.
cry home in Ellsworth has one or
more victims of the explosion and
panic in the hall of the Modern Wood.
men Saturday night, are a result OF
which two women are fatally hurt
and more than score seriously in.
5ured. The number of victims is great
or than at first supposed.
The panic, which followed the ex-
plos1on OF a gasoline lamp, came just
at the close of program arranged by
the women's society Of the Methodist
church. There was music and speak.
ing, then supper was served. Toward
the close OF the supper a lamp sus,
pended from the ceiling exploded and
scattered the burning fluid in all di.
rections and ignited the scenery on
the stage. The audience rushed for the
exit and many were knocked down
and trampled upon.
Those Fatally Injured.
The fatally hurt are:
DAWSON, MRS. JOHN W.
STANGER, MRS. PARIS.
The other victims include:
Fry, Mrs. Irwin, leg dislocated,
badly cut and bruised.
Stanger, Frank, shoulder dislocated.
Spain, Mrs. Washington, head in
jured and eye gouged.
Reid, William.
. Van Gundy, Mrs. Frank, ankle dis.
located, leg injured ard bruised
1t ts regarded as remarkable that
no children were numbered among
the seriously injured, as number of
them were in the hall,
The gasoline lighting system used
was made by a Chicago concern. A
new pipe connection had been hur-
riedly made the preceding day, and
the work, 1t is claimed, was improp-
erly done, allowing gasoline vapor to
escape and causing the explosion.
Only Two Exits.
There were only two exits, one in
front and narrow outside stairway
IN the rear. Down the front stairway
poured nearly one-half Of the people
present. These escaped in safety,
though some We're bruised. Frightened
by flames at the end of the hall, more
than half the people rushed back to-
wards the narrow door in the rear
and crowded their way through. This
stairway was open, the handrail hav.
ing been broken away some time ago.
It was used only for such purposes as
carrying coal and supplies to the hall
upstairs and when many tried to de-
scend that way they were quickly
crowded off.
The stream OF people from the small
doorway came SO rapidly that many
were pushed Off the landing at the top
before they could attempt to descend
It was drop Of 20 feet. Mrs. J.. W.
Dawson was one Of the first to be
pushed off the narrow PLATFORM and
she was followed quickly by others,
all of whom piled upon each other in
a STRUGGLING mass on the ground be-
low. Others fell from the stairway at
varying heights and were trampled
upon by others.

BALLOON TO Be
USED BY BECKER
M1LwAUKEEss BOY MAYOR WILL
STUMP THE STATE IN NEW
Il STYLE.

Chicago, April 6.-Milwaukee's "boy
Mayor Sherburn M. Becker, will cam
paign for Governor Of Wisconsin in
a balloon. He has placed an order for
a duplicate of the largest balloon in the
world with the Bumbaugh-He eimann
campany Of St. Louis. His plan is to
use the. great gas bag for quick trans
portntion from town to town in north
ern Wisconsin, where the roads are
muddy and hard to travel in the late
spring and early summer.
Mayor Becker Is now at the Annex
and yesterday was busy going over the
plans and specifications for his new
speed bubble. He will build wonder.
full basket that will furnish comfort
and convenience OF all kinds while he
is above the pine woods.
No doubt my enemies will say this
is done for sensation" said Mayor
Becker ''but the truth Is that am
looking for safety and quick travel in
country difficult Of access. I have
stumped Northern Wisconsin for good
roads and know. how much the peo-
pie lip there need them.
In balloon / can go over all OBJ
stacles. ] can choose my direction by
finding the right air circuits.
Il think in most towns | shall speak
from the basket Of the balloon while
anchored twenty feet or so from the
ground. When I want to leave all
I'll have to do is to let go and rise
until strike q current that will carry
me over to my next town. l can find
and current desire within an alti-
tude of 1900 feet
Mayor Becker says he will surely be
a candidate for Governor III he listens
to the call Of his friends" Although
in these words is a hint Of hesitancy,
nothing but positiveness Is to be seen
in Mayor Becker's face.

Refusal to Reveal Age Causes Strike

South Norwalk, Conn, April g.
Two hundred women employees of the
c. & K. hat shop went on a strike be-
cause their employers wanted to know
their ages.
The trouble arose over the promo
ton Of three young operators to be in
spectors. The employees voted 120 to
76 not to work under the girls named.
Their committee waited on the firm
and presented an ultimation. The en-
ployers considered their protest and
told the committee to have the en-
ployes submit their ages and they
would pick out the three oldest for IN
spectors.
The committee reported, but one.
half Of the women positively refused
to give their ages. and strike fol
lowed.

Rear Admiral Gains Strength Rapidly
and Has Mud Bath in
the kurFaus.

Paso Robles Hot Springs, CAL, April
6.-Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans
was strong enough to take a two
hours carriage ride yesterday through
the hills surrounding the springs.
Yesterday morning the admiral was
given his first mud bath in the Kur-
haus since his arrival here.
This was followed by massage treat
ment for an hour. AS he looked at
the hot, black cozy mass in which he
was being lacked and the sulphurious
steam rising from it, he remarked
jocularly: "This is nearer HI than
ever was before"
He not only enjoyed the novel ex-
perience, but declared himself as
wonderfully benefited by the treat.
