Discharge EMPLOYEE Killed.

St. Paul. Aug. 30.-Charles WEIGH,
discharged travelling Waterman for the
Great Northern Railroad, tried to
murder AL. G. Ray, chief special agent
Of the railroad, in the Great Northern
office building here today and was
killed by Ray.
WEIGH fired five shots at Ray, none
OF them taking effect. At the second
shot Ray. who was sitting at his desk,
drew revolver and returned Welch $
fire. One OF. his bullets struck Welch
in the head.
Just before Rays shot struck him.
WEIGH dashed a newspaper wrapped
package to the Office floor. This later
proved to be a pint bottle OF nitro gly-
cerinc, but the wrapping kept it from
exploding.
The police say there was enough of
the explosive to have wrecked the ten
story office building.

Shipping has been seriously inter

Chairman Griscom of the New York

about the Taft campaign letter to Rep
resentative Mckinley.
Regarding the Taft letter on the
New York situation, Bryan said: The
president in writing that letter was
striving to bring together the two fac
tions of the republican party. do not
believe that he realizes that the breach
is so wide that such measures will not
suffice to heal the wounds. -
Commenting OH President Taft's
campaign document, he said the letter
indicated that the president now be-
lieves it wise to reduce the tariff by
separate bills instead of general mea

said the commoner, the republicans
ridiculed our plan and called the bills

speak more respectfully hereafter. "

The Disorder in Columbus.

Columbus. o., Aug. S0.-Charges OF
unnecessary brutality are made against
militia men today following the street
car strike riots Of last n ght whcn forty
men were arrested and probably two
hundred suffered injury from night
sticks and dubbed rifles. Residents OF
the riot district declare the soldiers
welded their clubs and guns promis-
cuously.
The sudden arrival of Battery c sur
priSed the rioters and police The
battery had been publicly relieved from
strike duty two days ago, bnt their
coup OF last night leads to the belief
that the publication Of their release was
a subterfuge to find how quiet the city
really is.
Numerous minor riots followed the
big one. In one instance the militia
dispersed mob of 400 people who
jcered and roughly handled street car
passengers a short distance from the
capital. There is evident friction be-
tween the police and the soldiers.
