WAVED THE AMERICAN FLAG
Riot Ensued and Americans Tram
Pied and Others Injured.

TICO 6SO OtISIS
Winnipeg, Mantle waving of the
American flag here while thousands of
provincial soldiers were parading, pre-
cipitated a riot during which the flag
was trampled and a number of persons
received minor injuries.
In the fight which followed a num-
Der of civilians were hurt, but none
seriously. The American whose name
could not be ascertained escaped
without serious harm, and with the
aid of the police eluded the crowd
The soldiers took no part in the dem
onstration.
The incident occurred when thou
sands of soldiers from Winnipeg and
Manitoba were marching through the
city on their return from annual camp
at Sowell, where they had been man
euvering under Sir Ian Hamilton, IA
nous British South African war gen.
eral.
When the One Hundredth regiment
was passing local bank, an American
appeared on the curling, waving an
American flag and shouting "Hurrah
for the American flag" J. B. Mitchell,
colonel in command of the regiment,
ordered one of his men to request the
American to put away the flag, but
before the soldier could reach the
American angry civilians bounced up
on him, tore the flag from his grasp
and hurled it into the street. Before
it could be reached the flag was torn.

TERROR CAUSED BY MOB
Trouble in South African Gold Mine
District Breaks Out Afresh.

Trouble in South African Gold Mine
District Breaks Out Afresh.
Johannesburg-Th settlement of
the strike among the gold miners in
the Rand district, which the govern
ment arranged with a committee of
strikers, has proved ineffective, al
though comparative order was pre-
served.
Casualties resulting from the fight
ing are now estimated at ITO. Two
officers, three soldiers and several po-
Hcemen were wounded.
Strike leaders apparently were try
ing to get the men to accept the
terms, but on all sides dissatisfaction
is expressed. A spirit of anarchy
has been aroused which is difficult
to control. A great crowd of strikers
wearing red badges surrounded the
Carlton hotel, while the terms of set
Element were being arranged. When
the leaders announced from the bal
cony that a settlement had been reach
ed they we're greeted with shouts of
What about the dead?" you've been
bought"
Except at the time of the Jameson
raid in 1896 and the outbreak of the
war in 1899, this city has not expe-
rienced such a day of toryism. The
mobs in the business section caused
less fear than the desperadoes who
were threatening to dynamite the
homes of the wealthy.

100000 VICTIMS OF
THE BALKAN WAR
FORMER ALLIES ARE FIGHTING
leach OTHER FIERcER THAN
THEY DID THE TURKS.
BULGARS REPORT VICTORY
5ervians Have Lost Heavily and News
of Disaster Is Expected
From Belgrade. I

London, England-After ten days
of fighting more severe than anything
in the last Balkan war, little light
begins to break upon the obscure op-
erations The Servians have lost
more men than in the whole previous
campaign, and semi-offcial statements
from Belgrade have the appearance
of preparing the public for news of
a disaster.
Desperate fighting, with fluctuating
fortunes, is proceeding along the
Vardar and Bregalinitz river, appar-
emily to Bulgaria's advantage. News
has been received of the Bulgarian in
vasion of Servia through Belograd-
chky. The Bulgarians claim to have
defeated the Servians and captured
five guns and quantity of other ma
terial, and by the occupation Of the
passes, to have opened the road to
Nish, Servia's most important fortified
town.
There is heavy fighting between the
Servians and Bulgarians south of Is
tip and in the neighborhood of Ketch-
ana. About two hundred thousand
men are engaged and the losses on
both sides appear heavy.
Bulgaria's strategy appears to be to
hold the Greeks in check, probably
with comparatively small forces, while
she deals with Servia.
Unconfirmed reports credit the Bull
garians with victories near Koprill,
giving them the key to Usup, and
with an outfanking movement from
the south of Lahynos Lake, which
would cut off the Greek retreat. Sal
oniki dispatches report that the
Greeks have captured sixteen guns
at Peiran Evidence of desperate
fighting is found in the arrival of
5000 wounded at Sa1oniki.
A conservative estimate of the kill
ed or disabled in the fighting is from
thirty to forty thousand. Thousands
of destitute refugees from the scene
of fighting are pouring into Salon
Xxi.

TARIFF TO TAKE
EFFECT AT ONCE
EXCEPTIONS, HOWEVER, MADE IN
WOOL AND SUGAR ScHED-
ULES BY COMMITTEE.
MORE REVENUE PROVIDED
Tax on Spurious Wines Was Provided
for by Levying rs Per Cent. Ad
VaIorem Tax.

Washington-Majo members OF
the senate finance committee decided
that all schedules of the new tariff bill
except sugar and wool should become
effective Immediately after the enact
ment of the measure into law.
Sugar, with the approval of the Dem
ocratic caucus, will be subject to the
Payne-Aldrich rates until March l.,
1914. The committee tentatively
agreed upon date for the wool SEIZED
ule, but did not announce it, because
of promise to confer with Senators
Walsh and Thomas, who could not be
reached. The committee will confer
with them before the final session of
the caucus.
Additional revenue was provided for
by the committee when it decided, in
view of the revenue tax on brandies
used in fortifying sweet wines, to
levy revenue tax of rs per cent. ad
valorem on what are known as "spu-
rious vines" wines made from pun
mis- and fortified with chemicals.
Containers of such wines must bear
a label, showing what materials enter
into the product. Just how much reve-
nue. will be derived from this the COM
mittee could not estimate, because the
tax probably will curtail the present
output considerably. p.
Another change proposed relates to
the clause prohibiting importation of
convict goods. 1t was amended so
as to read that such goods be exclud-
ed from countries which do not pro
hibit'' convict labor. Originally the.
clause read from countries which did
restrict" convict labor.
Chairman Simmons said that he ex-
pected general debate on the bill to
begin soon. He will report the meas
ure soon, and it is his opinion that
the debate will be limited to five
weeks.

Fierce Fiohtino in Macedonia,

London - Evidence that serious
fighting is occurring in Macedonia is
found in the arrival of large numbers
of wounded and prisoners at the vari-
Gus Balkan capitals, but, owing to 81
lence at Sofa and to the conflicting
and probably biased stories from Ser
via and Greek sources, it is impos-
sible to form an accurate idea of the
struggle. There has been no formal
declaration of war and although it is
reported the Bulgarian minister to
Greece has been recalled, he has not
departed from Athens.

Tax on Futures Opposed,

New Orleans.-The proposition con-
tanned in the Clarke amendment to the
Underwood tariff bill to tax one-tenth
of a cent pound all cotton futures
contracts has aroused aggressive op-
position on the part of members of
the New Orleans Cotton Exchange and
many others interested heavily in cot
ton trade throughout the South. Hun
dreds of kilograms from cotton deal
ers in a dozen states have been re-
ceived at the exchange asking that
it's officers make every effort to pre-
vent the enactment Of the amend
ment into law.

Nashville, Tenn.-Three hundred

the big stock yards of Boiling & Pow
ers burned to the ground within 80
minutes after the alarm was turned
in. The fire was discovered shortly
after noon, and burned so fiercely
that the tanks of the Nashville Gas
company, across the street, were ex-
pected to explode. Three streams of
water saved the gas plant, while a
Gordon of police forced the big crowd
that had collected out of danger.
