The lH > llcodid not intorfora with these noisy demonstrations In nny way. Another pans attacked the ofilco of the newspaper , Comerclo , which Is opposed to Cacorcs , nnd began shooting through the win lows nml doors at the employes. A boy connected with the newspaper was shot while attempting to close the street door. A policeman atati Jlngnl the nearest corner re- malnod a passive spectator of this outrage. When the editor of Comerclo telephoned to the polloo station demanding protection from the mob the chief of police sent n four cav- nlmncn. who dispersed the lawless Cacor- 1st * . Carorc * Uunililcrntrly Subsequently Cacoros himself sent his secretary to the ministers of the Interior and justice to express hU regret for and disapproval of the illegal action taken by hl followers. To many persons this rioting was not unexpected - expected , so that by 3 o'clockm the after noon of icstorday most of the stores in the cit , were closed and the squares were occu pied by squads of cavalry. Free passage w s only permitted to foreigners , Mayor Hovorcilo , who Is aliened to bo really tha chief cause ot all the trouble , had mnt out word , summoning- laboring class s to an exhibition on the principal siuiro oftho city. The gathering crowds w -re mot by iho cavalry , who turned thotn brv-k from the square and would not allow thorn to collect thoro. Then the. O .corists assembled Iu considerable num bers before the palaca and demanded &n nudionco of President Bormudez. They also shouted for the dissolution of con gress and fcr a now election for prefect. General Sallix , with a force of cavalry , promptly dispersed this mob , bywhich action ho won u good deal of commendation , especially from the foreign residents hero. Many citizens of eminent respectability , when they heard today of the raid on the oflleo of Comorclo last night , calloJ upon the editors and expressed tholr sympathy for them and Indignation at the outraeo. All Is qul < ? t in the city today , but the state of alarm caused by these scones of riot con tinues. Tno general opinion is thut tno state of nITaiw at present tolerated by the authorities is simply disgraceful. The busl- ' ness of thn city is being seriously impaired , und oven almost stopped , by thb pre vailing' sense of insecurity , because it is believed b.v many that Mayor Hcvoredo has instigated the whole trouble and neg lects to suppress It , because he hopes in this way to prevent a meeting of the e'lec toral college hero. The aldermen , too , are bringing pressure to bear upon the admini stration , from whom they expect a declara tion that congress no longer exists , and that. n now election must bo had. Thus they hope to sccttro a victory for the Cacorists. The president refuses positively to accept the resignations of the ministers , who arc resolved that law and order shall bo upheld and are opposed to tbo lax treatment the rioters nro now receiving.

Cheek ofu llruzuu llrunil , The cheekiest and most infamous feature in connection with this mutter is Koon'a charge that llosuwator took an active part in his conviction , and tried to bulldo/.o his two bondsmen into withdrawing from his bond , and also manipulated the clerK of tbo supreme court. Incidentally , it. may bo interesting to reproduce the exact language hu uses in regard to lib release ; My friends did call on Mr , Itosewutur and he , they told me , agreed thut he would do everything In his power to relieve mo front lmprlbonmeit ) , and he would ud- vocato In tils paper thut I bo rok'.ised.

It will bo noted that lit the first , letter Keen sent to Mr. Koaowator ho referred to his attorney , Judge Uutllo , ugrot-lng to 'dutifully carry out" whatever conditions might be Imposed , Judge Duftio , who has been holding a term of court in Washington county , returned homo Satur day night , and when u reporter for TUB UEH yesterday called his attention to the bogus letter the judgoald : Juile Outlle' * Htutoment.

I had nothing to do with the cusoa iu which ho was interested in police court , but I bud charge of bis mutters la ibo district court und In the state supreme court. Af tor Koeu had been couvicted iu the district court and sentenced by Judge : pay is I tool : an appeal to tho. supreme court , where I had the case advanced on ttio docket for immediate hearing , and procured an order .for the release of Keen from the penitentiary on bond. It was two or three mouths after that that the case was decided iu tbo supreme court aud an order was issued directing the district ludtro to impose a senluuco In accordaooo with the conviction , nstho jiiUctmcnt had not charged n felony. t | 11 During this tfrtiA'l ha.t Hart several talks vtth Keen , and I had a number of other con versations with htm titter ho was again jlaccd tn jail to serve iu the sentence.

Ho said that ho hnd spoken to Governor Boyd about tbo propriety of pardoning Kocn , but that the Kovbfnor did not llko to act on it , ns it was so near the end of his term , nnd preferred toloavo It for Governor Crounsp. Mr. Kos/iwtitcr ; nt that tlmo stated to mo tint ho thought Kocn had boon punished stifllclcmly" , as ho was n young man , and Itvoihr undoubtedly provo a * oed lesson for bun. Ho further stated that ho would bo clad to assist in any way that ho could in obtaining Koen's release. Soon afterward , I saw Governor Crounso , nnd urged him to crant the pardon , but ho wus very reluctant to act without n recommendation to that effect from .Itulpo D.ivls , before whom the case was tried , I then saw .lunge Davis and talked the mattcrover with him. llo talked very kindly nbotit it , and on my suggestion , Kocn wrote a lottdr to him , asking his tiflsl.M.inco. It was shortly after that that the Judge gave mo n loiter to Oovornor Orounso , I took the letter to Lincoln , and presented it to the governor , xvho was nt the tlmo seated at a table in the dining room of the Lincoln hotel In company with Mr. Kosowutor. Mr. Uosownlor tit that tlmo renewed his ox proaslons in Koon's behalf - half , and said sovoral.cncouraging things in favor of granting the pardon. It was very soon thoroafterth.it the pardon was granted. Kot > u Wm Itutlcr.nt. "During alt this time that I w s Koen's legal advisor , and in frequent consultations with him , I never hoard a word from him about nny Inforjnation that ho had or claimed to have In relation to thu census of thio city , nnd I certainly never attempted to make any bargain with anyone for his re- loaso.

" "What about tills alleged manipulation of the ciorkof the supreme court by Iloso- water ? " "I novcr hoard anything of the kind , and Icertainly would have heard of it It there had been anything of the kind. All that the clerk of the supreme court hud to do with the matter wus to approve the bond that was furnished'for the release of Keen from the penitentiary pending the hearing und decision of the case. 1 secured the bond nnd took It to Lincoln , where I offered It to the clerk of the court. llo did not know either of the parties who signed it , nor did ho know anything about thorn. lie was un willing to accept it until ho could have thorn brought before him , as tha bond had not been signed In his presence.I do not see that there was anything out of the way or unreasonable in this petition taken by the cleric , nnd I never heard before that there was tnnnipulation pf him on the part of Ilosewatcr or anybody else. "So far as the charge of u corrupt bar gain is concerned , it was I who called upon Mr. Kosowator in Koen's behalf , and it was I who asked Mr , llosowater to intercede for si pardon. There was no bargain about it. rorru.pt , or otherwise , and if anything of , that kind had been proposed I would | ) ay.c no moro to do with it.

Nothing else was dis cussed In the clubs and hotels today but the cownrdly , unprovoked murder of Mayor Carter II. Harrison of Chicago. The tragedy was universally deplored , and the wonder was expressed by many that the murderer escaped lynching. Ono of the most prominent Chicagonns who is in Now York Is Mr. Victor V. Lawson - son , publisher of the Chicago Kccord and the Chicago Daily News , llo said at the Cfll- soy house this afternoon : ' 'Mayor Harrison was an extraordinary man , tremendous in strength nnd personality , and possessed of what U called personal magnetism. Ho had made politics his principal business. Al though opposed by nil ibo dally newspapers in Chicago except his own ho bad achieved a decided victory iu the last municipal elec tion. although the moral element was against him. " On the other hand. Mr. Lawson said it must bo admitted his administration had been successful , although from a high moral standard it could bo criticised , It was Har rison's method to bo all things to all men. Few psoplo had the opportunity Harrison bad of bringing themselves In touch with the masses. This , Mr. Lawsoti said , was extremely true of his relations with the for eign clement of Chicago. Asked his ] opinion of Prondergast. the assassin , Mr. Lawsou said there was little doubt ho was a crank. Ono of the Issues hist election was the elevation of the rail road tracks , as about ono persona day on the average wus being killed. Mayor Harri son was supposed to favor this , but after the election he had shown lukewarmness. As a result of this , there had in South Chicago beoti considerable feeling aroused , the move ment being led by a priest. Mr. I-.awson thought Proiidorgust might have been inter ested in this movement. Act us Mayor. In all probability , according to 'Mr. Lrfiw- son , Oscar D. Wothcrcll. wlio is the comptroller of Chicago , will act as mayor until a successor of Mayor Harrison is olectpd. Mr. Wo the rail is president of the Glohb National bunk nnd a republican , and wus appointed by Mr. Harrison. S. J * Sherwood of Chlcneo , who is nt the 'Hbllti'nd House , said Mayor Harrison was a man whom ho had never voted for , but ho had always admired him. Ho was , aside from a political view , almost universally honored by the citizens of Chicago. Mr. Sherwood said undoubtedly Prendergast was a "rank and no significance was to be attached to the murder of Mayor Harrison. Secretary Do Frecste.ia democratic state committeeman , is in favor of additional legis lation to protect the people against cranks. Ho said when Prendergast was iujtho pres ence of the dead mayor's secretary a few dayssinco he should have at once been taken into custody. Ho would go further than this , and say the man who was known to bo a dangerous crank should bo locked up and his mental condition inquired into. World' * Fair lee | > le Hlio\v Their' Sorrow Over Mr. IIarriftnnn Dnntli , CHICAGO , Oct. 29. Seldom has anything awakened such deep sorrow among the resi dents of Chicago as the death of Mr. Harri son. His political enemies , and he han ninny , all had a warm spot , for the genial per sonality of the man , and his friends , whom he numbered by thou sands , fairly worshiped him. The manner of his death silenced all things that could bo said against him , and the grief is almost universal In Chicago. The most signal ovl- doncc of sorrow will be the absence of all festivities at iho World's fair tomorrow.

Last Saturday cvoning the republicans of \ \ cst Omaha precinct hold a mass meeting at the Benson town hall. The program ef the evening consisted of remarks by sovor.il candidates , who wore followed by Judge 'lip- ton and Mr. Allen. Jin. Kynor was then Introduced mid was proceeding with a charactcristio i speech when souio QUO entered the hall and whis pered to those In the rear that 12d Trapp , who was defeated for delcgato to the county convention by O. K. Pratt by a vote of 03 to 8 , had assaulted Mr. MoEwlng. Inquiry revealed the fact that the cause * leading up to the assault were ns follows : After the primary nt which Trapp mot his "Waterloo at Dundee" some local poet arranged a parody on "Captain Jonks , " In which Pratt was made the hero of the occa sion , nnd several local lilts were made. Among other things at n recent entertain ment this production was rendered by Mc- Ewlng in a very pleasing manner. Trapp , it seems , took offense and ns McEwing loft the hall ho was followed by Trapp to the corner where ho committed the assault. Hushing up beside his victim , Trapp dealt him a blow with his list , and the nature of the wound would indicate that kuuoklos were used. The victim fell to the ground , when Trapp , it is alleecd , snatched a heavy walking stick , with which he struck him twice while prostrate. MeEwlnp in Eomo way managed to got Into an adjacent saloon , where ho was fol lowed by 'irapp , wno remarked : ' 'My numo Is Trapp and yon have my introduction. " Friends of the injured man guthe.red around and threats of thrashing and tar aud feathers were made , but better counsel pre vailed , anil Mr. Trapp will bo treated to an object lesson in Justice , prnbablv tit the bar of the district court , and the Justice thus administered will govern the course of the indignant residents of the qulut little suburb. Trapp has the reputation of Dclng a politician of the E. H. Cone stripe. After being defeated at the primary he , tocothcr with a few followers , adjourned to a saloon , where they declared their intention of de feating the ticket nominated. The best ele ment of Benson and of the entire precinct condemn the cowardly assault made by Trapp and ropuliato any such methods us strongly as they repudiated thu attempted politicjl dictation of Trapp and Cone at ths primaries. The Indignation of the people is wrought to its highest Ditch nnd the perpetrator of the assault will not have donu with the people ple of Benson , oven though ho may be gtvon a term In jail for his dastardly work of Sat urday night. Constable "Blondy" Chirk comes In for his share of condemnation , for It Is roiKiilu-d that Tr.tpp told him before loavimr tbo hall that ho was jroltie to slug McEwitij ? . Trjpp also remarked that had it not been for the ladies present at the hall ho would have taken Mr. MoEwiug off the stage. "Blondy" made no effort to exercise his authority as a PIMCO otllcur and prevent the assault. The closing stanza of the production which seemed to arouso.the true mtturo of the as sailant ran bomethlns as follows : I'm Colonel Pratt whoiu'ur 1 uo , I'm all 0.1C. but don't eat crow.
