Mysterious Murder.

Cleveland, O., Aug. 6.-1'hc police
have discovered no clue to the MUIR
derer of William l.. Rice, member of
the law firm on Bandin, Rice & CHM,
who was found dying from bullet
wounds last night within sight o. his
palatial home on Euclid Heights.
The police adhere to the theory that
Rice was shot by highwaymen, and
this is strengthened by the declaration
of members OF his household that Rice
had no known enemy.
Two bullet wounds over the right
eve, either Of which would have proved
fatal, and deep cash on the left hand
led to the belief that Rice was killed
while resisting the attack OF two or
more assailants.
One feature which tends to shake
the robbery theory IS the fact that his
yaluabes we're not disturbed, This,
however, might be accounted for by
the arrival of Night Waterman Vail,
who ran toward the spot directly upon
hearing the shots. He says, however,
that he saw no one in the vicinity.
The Law Club today announced a
reward OF So, 900 for the arrest of the
person or persons who murdered Rice.
Cleveland, O., Aug. 6.-Aftcr third

developments if they are able to lorate
a man whose name Grimes gave them.
The detectives refused to make a further
statement, but it is known that they do
not attach any importance to the theory
of highway robbery.

BRYAN CLAIMS VICTORY.

In an editorial in the Commoner
William ]. BRYAN says the recent re,
pudiaton of himself by the Nebraska
state democratic convention was really
victory for him and for county option
for which he stands. In part he says
Mr.. Bryan announced himself in
favor Of an Endorsement OF county
option as the only way to break the
hold OF the liquor interests and insure
the submission OF the initiative and
referendum
As q result of his fight the republi.
cans indorsed the initiative and re-
fercndunl, thus making it certain il
will be submitted at the coming session
of the Legislature (hr democrats and
populss also having iniorsed). This
is victory OF the reforms f2r which hi
has commended for II years. He can
afford to be turned down on county
option if he can max" sure of tho
initiative and referendum.
Governor Shallcnbcrgcr, announced
at The convention that he would sign {
county option hill. The chances arc
largely in favor Of its passage.
In a statement published in his
paper in reference to the meeting helC
recently in Lincoln, H., to protes
against legislative corruption, Mr.
Bryandcclared that the democratic legis
lators who voted to elect William Lori
mer to the United States Senate should
be read out Of the democratic party.
Any democrat who voted for Lori
mer for patriotic reasons ought to be
retired to private life and kept there
long enough to learn what patriotism
merns," said Mr.. Bryan. 1t is almos
as dangerous to have fool in the legis
lature as a knave.
"A democratic legislator who could
be convinced that he was performing a
patriotic duty in voting for Lorimel
could be persuaded to do anything de
sired by a lobby-provided the same
patriotic argument were used. He |:
not fit for any representative position
it is hardly safe to allow him to rur
at large.
Turn them out! The party can
not pause to defend those vino are
guilty, or who, if innocent, have
aroused suspicion which can never bt

Searching for Brothers Murderer.

New York, Aug. 6.-Dissatisfed with
the police investigation into her broth
er's death, serentcen-year. old Rose
Louria, of East New York. is today
doing some sleuthing on her own ac
count, having resigned her position in
local factory. Aaron Lourla, the
girls brother, was found dead in a
vacant lot near his home a week ago.
He had been missing month. The
day before he disappeared he had been
robbed. and had announced hi intcn-
ton of limiting down the robbers, say
ing he knew them. He started on tie
search and never returned. Then his
body was found with bullet hole il
the head, pistol lay beside it. The
police closed the case with the declara
ton that the boy committed suicide.
The mother and sister insist that he did
not take his own life and the girl has
set out to prove that he was murdered.

Anii-(,iericn,i Aroused.

Madrid, Aug 6. -Ant.-clcrichls were
greatly aroused t"irs over report
that the Catholics hal abandoned the
idea of holding a gigantic meeting to
protest against the governments course
in the vatican dispute as result OF
promises of concessions from the gov
eminent to the church. These conces-
sions, it is said. were ordered by King
Alfonso, on the advice Of his English
relatives, will whom he IS now visiting.
They are said to have impressed the
Youthful king with the gravity OF the
situation, and OF the Necessity OF not
alternating the great bulk OF Spanish
Catholics. If concessions have been
made an anticlerical break seems IN
evitable. The liberals and republicans
are in no mood to witness the govern
ment's surrender to the church after
the apparently firm stand of the last
few days, and now that religious and
governmental liberty have been ad-
yanced, they will fight before submit
ting to a. retrogressive policy.
The announcement of the complete
abandonment of the plan for meeting
of protest cccasioned considerable sur
prise and is accounted for only on the
grouud Of the military movement OF
the government Of the reported conces-
sions.
It has l,ccn known for several days
that the pouring of 10000 soldiers into
San Sebastian had disheartened the
leaders of the proposed demonstration,
but it had also served TO intanc thou
sands of the Catholics in the Basque
provinces and q violent, even though
small, demonstration was feared.
San Sebastian, Aug. 6.-Prcparatlons
for the suppression Unexpected disorders
here tomorrow are being completed to-
day, despite the fact that the proposed
demonstration by Catholics has been
called off. Officially the meeting OF
protest has been abandoned, but the
several thousand visitors who slipped
into San Sebastian before the governors
prohibitive cdict became operative
declare that they will engage in parade
and public meeting. Soldiers con
tipued to pour in the city today, and
for every probable remonstrant there
will be one or more soldiers, 50 that
there will be no difficulty in checking
any disturbance, if the soldiers resort
to force. -,
1t is expected here that troops will be
scattered throughout the Biscayan tier
of provinces during the coming week.
TIL revolutionary spirit is growing
rapidly in this part of Spain, and if a
Carlist instruction is launched, as IS
now feared in many quarters, 1t Will
surely be in one OF these provinces.

SHOOTS THREE MEN.

After a brief but bloody running
battle, in which three men were wound
ed, Harley May, aged %. was shot to
death by Patrolman Jacob Gates in
Shelby. Ohio, yesterday.
May, who was hostler, started
trouble in Main street saloon by shoot
ing ut the bartender. He missed the
bartender, but shot George Cline, a
farmer, through the upper portion OF
his chest.
Going into the street May calmly re-
loaded his revolver and shot Patrolman
w. &. Shaw through the breast, intiict-
ing a possibly fatal hurt The youth
then fled down Main street aud took
refuge in a private residence. where 4
posse, led by Patrolman Gates, found
him.
May fired first, slightly wounding
Gates, but the latter, on his first shot,
pierced the young mans jugular vein
with a bullet, AMI the lad, clutching
his revolver, sank dying to the doorstep
and expired before he could be removed.
Cline, the first man wounded, will
probably recover, but Patrolman
Shaw's condition is extremely serious.
