Manchester His appearance was the
signal fo- hostile demonstration which
resulted in his forcible election from

streets from a mob that WAS prevented

rlous harm. Patten was hidden for a
while in business office and later
swn9clcd into cab ana driven to a
more secure refnge.
Patten' s coming TO Manchester had
been widely beralded since his arrival
in Liverpool. and the reception was
ready for him There are persons in
Manchester who were squeezed in the
Patteu rise in the price of cotton last
year. aud they have neither forgotten
nor forgiven the man who at times has
forced the price of cotton and grain to
new figures,
Quickly Recognized
As soon as Patten appeared on the
floor of the cotton exchange a broker
shouted "Pattcu!
Instantly hostile cries were raised
and the air was filled with ''booings' -
and hootiugs, mingled with au occa-
sonal cheer.
Amid the din the brokers rushed to
ward the American. who was quickly
surrounded by a threatening mob and
lostled hlther aud thither as the pres

and Gown the floor.
After 4 while the brokers, exerting
their energies IN a common direction,
made a final rush aud drove the wheat

Exchange Stops Business

suspended aud hundreds of men left
the pit and followed the specuator
into Bank street, where another big
crowd was soon assembled. At this
point the visitor received a reception

The mob hurled epithets and a hun
dred fists were shaken at Patten, who
turned 1eathlv pale as the threatening

TORY INVADED
Plan Electric Line to Tap

Region.

Spokane, July 30.-James J. Hill
will invade territory now belonging
exclusively to the Blackwell interests
and the Milwaukee road by building
an electric line from a point near
Spokane, on the Spokane & Inland
railway to Priest Lake.
This line will leave the main line
of the Spokane & Inland, purchased
by Hill interests last spring, at Trent
which is nine miles northeast of Spo-
kane, and will run to Twin Lakes,
Spirit Lake and Hoodoo Lake, re-
sorts now served by the Idaho &
Washington Northern, Blackwell S

Priest river and Priest lake, connect
ing with the steam road on the G. N.

This road will cater particularly
to the tourist trade of Spokane, run

CAUGHT MURDERER
VENDING
After a Race Across the
Continent Suspect Is
Arrested.

San Francisco, July 30.-Josepn
Vending, wanted in Louisville for
the murder of Alma Kellner, was ar
rested here this morning and admits
his identity. Vending was the jani-
tor of st. Johns parochial school and
is charged with having slain the lit
tie girl. The capture was due to an
anonymous tip given the police sew
eral days ago. A lodging house at
345 Third street was watched, and
early today in decided search of the
premises Vending was found hiding
under a sink.
He denied he was the man, but
when the police pointed out the bull
let wound in the hand received while
he was in the French army, and the
ship tatooed on his body, he admitted
his identity.
Vending had been sought here for
three weeks. He had been traced to
Vallejo after a chase across the con-
tinent. Later he was traced to this
city, where many traces of the man
were found, but the police could not
lay hands on the man himself until
today
Reports that Vending confessed
cannot be confirmed at present.

Stormy Time in Committee.

Those who took in the convention
this morning must not think that the
only fight made was on the conven-
ton floor. Far from it.
The members of the committee on
credentials in the directors room of
the Commercial Club sat as Judge and
jury on the case between the two
contesting delegations. L. ]. Crol-
lard and R. S. Ludington represented
the delegation led by DR.. King, and
B. ]. Williams and l.. M. Hull repre-
sented the delegation who called
themselves the regulars"
The discussion was a heated one
throughout the whole time, 20 min
utes being allowed to each speaker
to present his case. Each side was
armed with documents and Balm
gers Code and other data. Every ar
gument was well punctuated with
cross questions fired in sidewise by
the opposition.
Williams and Hull pleaded 'regu-
larity" as nearly to it as they could
get.
Crollard and Ludington represent
ed that the opposition was not only
irregular but also unfair

WHO WILL RUN FOR
CORONER?
County Office Which Is Not
a Sinecure Going
Begging.

Up to this time no candidate for
the office of county coroner has filed
his declaration. The Daily World re-
porter called on several physicians of
nearly all of them had been request
ed to accept the nomination, but none
of those interviewed were willing to
even consider the matter. They be-
lieve the time and expense involved
was too great for the pay which this
Office receives.
For each inquest the coroner is al
lowed $40. For travelling expenses
he gets 10 cents per mile. If no in
quest is made, as is frequently the
case when he is called upon to make
long and arduous trips, he gets no
fee and the 10 cents per mile very
often fails to cover actual expense
incurred. For instance, suppose a
call comes from Entiat, which is
about one-fifth the distance across
the country or 20 miles The coro-
rer would receive 81 for the round
trip mileage. A livery rig for that
drive costs Sc. Unless an inquest
is actually held, the coroner loses 81
on the CALL 1t is, therefore. not to
be wondered at that DR.. Saunders, the
present official, is not making vigor-
Gus effort TO succeed himself. He is
reported to have stated that he has
held the position at a financial sacrl-
fee. Nobody has claimed that the
work appeals to the aesthetic taste.
Thus far, reports to the Daily
World indicate that none of the city
physicians will accept the nomina-
ton. H. NJ. May, of the Wenatchee
Undertaking company, has been
urged by many of his friends to file
MS declaration, but he, too, resitates
to make the sacrifice. When ap-
preached by reporter this afternoon
he refused to say more than that he
is considering the matter and will not
take any action unless public duty
demands him to do so.

thinks DEAD MAN
IS BRAKEMAN
Man Found in Wellington
Slide Thought to Be
Mcdonald.

Seattle, July 30.-Deputy Coron-
er William Borthwick, who has re-
turned to Seattle with the last body
to be recovered from the snOwslide
debris near the Great Northern
tracks at Wellington, believes it to
be that of Brakeman Mcdonald, the
only known missing man among the
ninety-two victims of the disaster.
The body was found in creek,
within ten feet of where the body
of the conductor of passenger train
No. 25 was found. Mcdonald was
asleep with the conductor when the
snowslide came.
Mcdonald was a native of Canada
and had relatives in Ontario Prov
ince. They will be communicated
with in an effort to establish abso-
lutte identification. Failing in this,
the body will be inferred in the
grave reserved for the unidentified
dead of the disaster.
