WILL DECIDE RECIPROCITY.
Canadian Voters to Hear Both Sides
of the Issue.

The Canadian election campaign
will not be in full swing for a fort
nielit. Both parties feel that they
profitably can spare some time to per-
fecting organizations. Prime Minis
ter Laurer will start next upon his
speaking tour, with ratification OF the
reciprocity agreement with the Unit
ed States as the vital issue. Opposi-
ton Leader Borden probably will be-
gin his public appearances a little
early.
Clifton Sifton. a minister of the
interior, Monday issued letter urg-
ing Canadians to vote against rec
iprocity, which, he declares, would
prove injurious to Canada and to the
British Empire.
Supporters Of reciprocity and fol-
lowers of the Government regard this
az significant. Mr.. Sifton announced
also today that he will not seek re-
election to Parliament. He was
member of the Laurier government
for many years, but resigned when
Saskatchewan was constituted a prov
ince. 7 id not, however, break

REBELS IN CUBA.
President Gomez Given Notice to Re-

An uprising against the govern
ment apparently of serious charac-
ter, occurred Monday night at Regla,
a suburb of Havana, across the har-
Dor, when General Guillermo AceVa-
do, a revolutionary veteran with s
or 10 companies, armed and mount
ed toSk the field. It is reported that
party was reinforced later by three
hundred men.
Before leaving Kegia, Acevado is
sued a manifesto dsnouncing the ad-
ministration Of President Gomez as
scandalous and corrupt and calling
on all patriotic Cubans to rise and
overthrow it. He declared he would
give Gomez fifteen days in which to
resign, after which, if the warning
was not obeyed, he intended to- ap-
ply the torch and destroy property in
discriminatory until the entire is
land was reduced to ashes.
Early Tuesday deatchments of
troops were dis. atched in pursuit
of the rebels. 1t is probable the ru-
rales will have no difficulty in fol-
lowing the trail There are rumors
that a fight has already taken place.

SENATORIAL CAMPAIGN HOT.
Three Candidates Out for the Honor
in Mississippi.

Mississippi's State campaign was
brought to a close Monday night and
the battle of ballots took place Tues
day. The threa candidates for the
Senatorship, a fight which has been
unquestionably tie bitterest in the
history of the State, delivered their
final spaeches Monday night. Unit

spoke at Itta Bena Monday, TO sever

spoke, delivering an address attack
ing what he called "Varlamanis,n.' V
He Urged the voters TO re-e:e::t MI.
Percy to he Seuate Partisan feel
ing runs high, but no disturbances
are reported.
Mr.. Vardaman issued statement
Monday night, which is in part as
follows:
This is a contest for supremacy
between the man-whose toll produces
the wealth of the country and the
favored few, who reap the products
of that toll. The people Of Nississ-
ippi will settle the question to-mor-
row rs to whether or not the honest,
patriotic methods Of the past Shall
be he rule of action in Mississippi
politics, or the tricks, bribery and
debauchery Of the secret caucus. I
expect to win by the largest majority
any man ever received in Mississip-
pi who had any opposition at ALL"
Before leaving for Greenville Mon
day night, to cast his vote, Chairman
VIM. Crump, Of the Percy campaign
committee, issued the following:
II see no reason to; change my
former estimate. Vardaman will
get small plurality in the first pri-
mary and Percy will be second.
Vardaman's vote will be much small

known no such radical departure Is
contemplated in the senate side,
where the management remains un-
changed.
Frequently we'll known negroes
have come to Washington on busi-
ness and have dined in the house

eating there, have risen from their

While there was no unpleasantness
nor even complaints, the members
and their clerks, especially from

FIGHT in MEXICO
STRIKERS AND TROOPS CLASH
OVER PRISONERS.
As q Result Nine Miners Are Dead
and Thirty-Two Wounded.-One
Thousand Soldiers Expected.

In repelling a mob Of striking
miners, who attempted to free the
prisoners in the Jail, troops fired
upon them Monday killing nine and
wounding thirty-two. The strikers
were from La Esperanza mine, which
they abandoned that morning,
Monday afternoon the men in the
Mexico mine, adjoining property,
walked out, and at the Ell Orc mine
a strike was declared there Tuesday.
Fearing that they might be the vic
tins of an anti-foreign demonstration
many of the American women were
sent out of the camp on special
train.
More than four thousand men, re-
presenting the underground forces of
the Mexico and La Esperanza, are
out, and if the men are Joined by
those in the Ell Orc, the number of
strikers will number approximately
seven thousand. The men demand
higher wages, but unofficially it was
stated Monday that the properties
would be closed down before increase
would be granted.
A detachment of one hundred
troops was sent from Toluca, the
State Capital, to Ell Orc Monday af-
ternoon, and President de la Barra
has been asked for additional protec-
ton. He Immediately promised all
assistance possible, and it is expect
ed that one thousand soldiers will
arrive there before morning from the
Capital.
Early in the day the trouble which
resulted in the shootinlg Of nine
strikers began. The rurales had ar"
rested a few Of the strikers, and the
idle men, learning of this, determin-
ed to set them free. Arming them
selves with nothing better than
chunks of gold-bearing ore, they
started up the one street OF the town
toward the jail. The mob moved
upon the Jail, throwing stones as
they went. The little prison was
reached, but the rurales were in con-
troll. The men were told to disperse.
They shouted their defiance. The
rurales began firing, but snumerous
shots were required to scatter the
rioters. Before the mob had been
dispersed, however, it had succeeded
in freeing the prisoner.
