POYNTER BEGS FOR HARMONY
Fusion Candidate in Consultation with tbo
Omaha Gang Leaders.
SEEKS TO STEM THE TIDE OF RFVOLT
I'leniln ivlth the Deniocrnln to Accede
to the DcnilindM of the PopullHtH
and Free Mlvcr Ilepnlilleiiiic
for Local IlccoKiiltlon.
Candidate Poynter was yesterday In
conference with Robert E. Leo Hcrdman ,
Walter Moles nnd Charlie Fanning and other
gang leaders of the local democratic ma
chine on the outlook for the campaign lu
Douglas county. The threatenM split of the
fusion forces over the nomination of the
legislative ticket was the particular situa
tion which received the moat attention. Mr.
Poyntei Is seeking to Impress the democratic
machine with the fact that the re-election
of Senator Allen next winter U not the only
object ot this campaign. He thinks the
success of the state ticket Is of some con
sequence.
Mr. Poynter Is said to haw * told his con
ferees that while they might think It pos
sible to elect a straight democratic legis
lative tlrket in this county on an endorse ;
ment of Senator Allen's candidacy for re
election , the fight such a course by the
democrats would surely provoke on the part
of the populists and silver republicans ,
might result disastrously to the state ticket.
HA urged them to make more concessions to
the other factious of the fusion agreement
In the way of places on the legislative ticket ,
and to sacrifice democracy to harmony
again.
It Is understood that the gang leaders
told Mr. Poynter It was going to bo next
to Impossible to prevent the democratic
county convention from nominating none
but democrats for the local offices , that
the rank and file are disgusted with the
manner In which the state convention had
given up everything to the populists , and
are on the verge of stampeding. To at
tempt to forestall such action , they said ,
will be to court a possible reorganization
of the party , with the result that will be
disastrous to the Hcrdman gung by putting
new men In charge , who inlsht do more
Injury to the fusion state ticket than the
mere nomination of a straight legislative
ticket could do.
Mr. Poyntcr Is said to have then urged
them to try and prevent the democratic
county committee from discussing the tub-
Ject or making any recommendation thereon ,
nnd this was promised with the understanding -
standing that the time between now nnd
the county convention shall be occupied In
trying to tone down tbo rebellious element
In * the democratic party , To assist In this
mission It Is reported that the most ag
gressive leaders In the element demanding
au Independent ticket art * to bo proposed
us candidates for the legislature , subject
to fusion endorsement , with the belief that
It will cool their ardor until the danger
point Is passed , when the machine can
then take bold and nominate the men It tt
has slated for the respective positions.
POI'l'I.ISTSOT ' CIOHTA1X SOW.
Suinihed Machine Serum to He lit Very
Fair Working Order.
Suspicion seems to bo rife In the populist
party , A feeling U Growing that while tha
people knocked out the machine at the
state convention , the latter has ncaln se
cured control and In as powerful as before.
Ono of I ho original populists In the state ,
who was especially Jubilant the day after
the concation because he believed the ma-
; hlno had been demolished , Is not so happy
today. He eays : "It appears to mo now
that all the good work accomplished by the
people In the state convention has been
ost. The signs are growing every day that
the element which the members of the party
generally looked on with distrust Is again
manipulating the campaign. I was a Poyn-
ter man , and want to see him elected , and
shall vote for him ; but when he says , as
no Is reported to have said to the Jackson-
Ian club last week , that he has no strings
attached to him , and that he can go Into
office untrammeled by pledges , I doubt the
accuracy of the statement.
Look at the organization of the state
committee. Gaffln has been elected chair
man , and everybody who knows him knows
that he is not possessed of the slightest
managerial ability. Ho wanted to be nom
inated for governor four years ago and was
defeated ; he then wanted to bo Governor
Holcomb's private secretory , und failed In
that ; he was appointed umpire In
the notorious penitentiary appraisement
deal , and Instead of standing against the
report and making a great political stroke
for the benefit of his party , allowed him
self , through some Influence , to sign the
report , when as umpire such action was
not called for , and It was only obtained
to glvo color to the claim for honesty In
the transaction. He then sought to bo
nominated for county treasurer In Soun
ders county last year , and was turned down.
This year he again tried hrs hand at Gov
ernor , and was agafn defeated. Yet with
such a record he Is made chairman of the
state committee.
"What does It mean ? It means that he
will bo the figurehead. All connection
he will have with the campaign will be
to sign his name to letters and documents.
"Who will be the managers ? Secretary
C. II. Plrtle of Washington and Oil Inspector
specter Edmlsten. Plrtle was Gaffln's sec
retary when he was speaker the first time ,
and they are close friends. His connec
tion with the committee can therefore be
publicly explained on that score. Plrtle Is
now holding a good position nt Washing
ton through Senator Allen's Influence. Ed
mlsten , It Is openly known , Is no friend of
Poynter's. The state committee Is to bo
run In the Interest scely of Senator
Allen's re-election , and Poynter will bo
forced to take care of himself unless he
bows to the machine. I cannot see how he
Is going to avoid It , but as I have said , the
victory which the people gained at the con
vention Is to be turned Into defeat unless
Mr. Poynter holds himself aloof from tha
machine which la endangering his election.
Chairman .Schneider In Omaha.
Hon. n. B. Schneider of Fremont , Neb. ,
chairman of the republican state committee ,
Is In the city on his way from Lincoln. Ho
says he will not announce the members tf
the executive and other committees until
September 1 , when the state committee will
hold a meeting. Mr. Schneider \\lll soon go
to Colorado for a week's rest , and will then >
return to Nebraska to put all his energy Into '
the campaign. The secretary of the state
commlteo Is already at work , and the plans
for the republican campaign are rapidly as
suming shape.

POLICE FUND SRUNNNG ! LOW
In tile AVny of Retrench
ment It NcucNmtry to Aiolil a
Certain Deilelt.
From the present outlook the police fund
will be very near the zero mark by the ar
rival of the month of December and It Is
considered verv likely by city officials that
a nortlcn of the force will have to be laid
off or salaries will have to bo cut during
that month at least to keep within the ap
propriation.
The city co/.ncll and the mayor have
tacitly established a rule not to transfer
money from one fund to another. They have
held pretty strictly to this rule and propose
) to do so In the future , according to the
statement made by several of the ofllclnls.
Under the circumstances therefore a deficit
stares the lire and police commissioners In
the fnco if they keep up the present force ,
and they will be compelled to trim their
expenses to suit their fund.
The flre fund is In much better shape , but
there Is a possibility also that some prun
ing will have to be dona here. When the
money set aside for the maintenance of the
fire department was fixed It waa agreed
that out of It the board should purchase
gome additional apparatus needed , among
other thlncs a couple of hose wagons and
a hook and ladder truck. There Is a pros
pect that the purchases can bo made with
out cutting down the force.
The attention of the board was called to
this condition of the flro fund in a resolu
tion that was passed at the last council
meeting. This resolution will probably he-
cclvc prompt notice and will result In some
transaction whereby the apparatus will be
secured.

TO OUTLINE CHANGES IN LAWS
County CoiiiinlmiloiierN and Supervln-
OI-N * AKNodntloii to Meet In Omaha
In September.
A meeting of the County Commissioners
and Supervisors' association of the state at
the court house September 7 has been Culled
by President Fred Beckraan of Lincoln. The
gathering will have a two-fold object. It will
be devoted to taking up and considering
| certain matters of legislation for the next
session of the legislature and at the same i
time give visiting commissioners and su
pervisors an opportunity to see the. expo
sition.
Perhaps the most Important matter of
legislation Is what is known as house bill
217 , accepted by the county commissioners
of tbo state two years ago and presented to
the last legislature. Its object U to glvo
authority to tbo county boards to revise
assessment lists without watting for com
plaints to bo made. As the law now stands ,
an erroneous assessment cannot bo corrected
by the county board until a complaint
brings the matter before It.
The legislative committee , of which Com
missioners Klerstead , Qjtrom and Jloctor
are members , will hold a preliminary meet
ing Thursday. They will also work upon
n bill for the remodeling of as much of the
revenue law as pertains to the fees collected
by county officials , with a view of making
them more uniform and equable. The last
meeting of the association , which was held
at Grand Island In Descmbcr last , brought
about 100 of the county commissioners and
supervisors together. This legislative com
mittee was then appointed.

TROUBLE OVER CURRENCY
Spanish Money at a Discount in the City
of Santiago ,
SMALL SUPPLY OF AMERICAN COINS
Authorities Take a Ilnnd to Stop Ijx-
tortlou In Exchangee nnd In
the MelllliK Price of Food
Product * .
SANTIAGO DE CUBA , Aug. 11. ( Corre
spondence of the Associated Press. ) The
past week In Santiago de Cuba has seen the
furtherance of reforms and Improvements
already under way. Now complications ha\e
arisen which we are called upon to settle.
There has been a slow and steady increase
In the death rate.
The question of Spanish and American
money and their respective values continues
to agitate the town and this will probably
last until little of the Spanish money re
mains. Notwithstanding General Wood's an
nouncement that Spanish gold would be de
prived of Its Cuban Increase of 6 per cent on
Its face value and that silver was nt 50 per
cent discount , many have persisted In con
sidering the centen , 25 francs , as worth $2.30.
as formerly and at no money changer's
could one get $ lu In s'lvcr for $3 In gold.
Nine dollars In silver was offered and this
only on small amounts. There has been a
meeting of merchants of Als place with the
object of discussing this matter of values
with General Wood and the question of Its
legality was raised , further assurances that
the measure applied to all transactions being
asked for. The question of legality , how
ever , was not discussed , as the merchants
were assured that the ruling applied to all
transactions , so that the meeting was rather
abruptly terminated.
It Is being recognized that American
money will be the money of the future in
Cuba. Workmen are publicly advised to In
sist upon their wages being paid lu United
States currency. But until the financial
situation is cleared up by the disappearance
of Spanish coin and the entrance In n suffi
cient quantity of American coin , abuses In
the way of exchange will probably continue.
Already small change Is becoming scarce.
One cannot exchange gold for Spanish sli
ver ; nnd there Is so little American silver
that small sales'are hard to consummate
and the poor are always imposed upon by
the money lenders.
Attempt to Keep Up 1'rlcea ,
One abuse that has been rectified was the
exorbitant prices asked for food U per
pound for meat , $3 for a bag of charcoal that
once sold for 80 cents and a genera ! con
tinuation of blockade prices long after their
Justification had been removed. This mat
ter the palace has ably taken In band and
after careful consideration and a discussion
of the subject with leading wholesalers and
retailers , a tariff In gold money on provi
sions has been arranged. Retailers have
been Informed that Infringements of this
tariff will be severely punished und the com
munity at large Is required to report any
overcharge. The prices given out are a
great reduction , but In the new arrangement
there Is ample opportunity for good profits ,
even to 50 per cent In some instances. Thus
the retailer has no right to complain. At L
some future day when the commercial I
situation of Santiago Is Improved a further
reduction will probably be made.

DROWNED BY A CLOUDBURST
Five Children Lone Their Live * anil
Their Slather HUH a .Nar
row E cnpe.
PITTSBURG , Aug. 19. A cloudburst up
Sawmill run this morning caused a tidal
wave In that stream , endangering the lives
of a dozen persons. Five children are miss
ing , and are supposed to have been drowned.
They are :
IRENE LOFTUS.
REGIS LOFTUS.
GENIVE SHAUGHNESSY.
MARGARET SHAUGHNESSY.
NELLIE SAULS.
The water In the run began to rise this
morning , and at 9 o'clock a great volume ot
water came down. The missing children ,
together with some older persons , were
standing on the i.orch of a tenement house
In Violet alley , In the rear of Main street ,
near West Carson. This porch overhung
the run. When the great wave , twenty feet
high , came down , the porch was carried
away and the people \\cnt with It.
Mra. John Loftus , mother of the two chil
dren first named , and two men , were the
adults In danger. The woman mode a
heroic effort 'o save the children , but to no
purpose.
Near the mouth of the run the sand
dredge Plttsburg wan moored , and when
the men In It saw the wreckage coming
down the stream , and the people struggling
for life , they stopped all else and went to
the rescue. The men and the woman were
carried out Into the Ohio river , but were
saved by the sand diggers. The woman had
excited the admiration of all who saw the
catastrophe by her efforts. She was almost
overwhelmed a number of times , but each
time fought off the debris and came to the
surface.
The great body of water did much damage.
A sand bar , fifteen feet high , at tbo foot
of the run , was washed away.
Parties of men are searching for the
bodies of the children. There was a heavy
and continuous downpour ot rain throughout
western Pennsylvania from midnight until
S o'clock this morning , and considerable
damage was done by washouts and the over
flowing of small streams , but as far us
known there were no other casualties.
Move to Alinllnh Cunul Toll * .
CHICAGO. Aug. 19. The Evening Poet today -
day says The Chicago Board of Trade will
bo asked bv marine men to take action for
the removal of tolls at the Wclland canal.
The International convention to settle dis
puted polnta between , the United States nnd
Canada will begin Its sessions at Quebec
August 23 , and It Is proposed to hnve a
strong petition from the Chicago Board of
Trade and other commercial Interests before
the convention. It Is urgrd the removal cf
the canal tolls will result In greatly In
creasing -tlio business from the west to Mon
treal for export and that the Canadians will
gain In thn Increased traffics much more than
they will lose by the abolishment of the
tolls , which amount to 2',4 cents per bushel.
The change would be of greet ad > antago to
the smaller class of vessels , both American
and Canadian , which have been forced down
to starvation rates by the construction of
the largo carriers the last few years. Mil
lions of dollars' worth of vessel property
Mould bo enhanced inaluo by the removal
of the tolls In this way.

NARROWLY ESCAPE LYNCHING
Escltctl Miner * Threaten Vengeance
on Men Accused of Shootlnir
Some of Their Number.
PANA , 111. . Aug.19. A crowd of fully 600
excited miners and citizens was about the
city building this morning when Ed James
and James Palmer , held In heavy bonds , on.
five charges of "assault with deadly weapons
pens with Intent to murder the miners on ,
the highway at Springtide inlno Monday , "
were released on ample security. For a
time Indications pointed to serious trouble.
James end Palmer were taken from the
court room In a buggy by Operator Overholt
of the Sprlngslde mine , and after being re
leased , headed by Messrs. Overholt , Petcr-
baugU and McQuIgg , they marched through
the crowd amid the hisses of the miners
and citizens. There were many muttcrlngs
and open threats. Cries of "Hang 'em , "
"Bring a rope , " "Swing 'em up , " were
made , and at one time there was n rush to
ward the buggy , which was surrounded by
threatening men , Wiser counsel prevailed
and the released prisoners were finally con
veyed back to the shaft unharmed. James'
and Palmer's trial will occur at the August
term of court.
The miners have establlobcd several camps
on the highway , near the Sprlngsido mlno
and nro watching the shaft be closely that
the few men working there do not leave the
mlno day or night , but sleep on the com
pany's ground and have meals sent them.
Reports that the Antl-Horso Thief society
was threatening vengeance on the miners
for Interfering with farmers cnroute to the
city launtrue. . The miners have all along
conducted themselves peaceably , Interfering
with no farmer or coal miner other than
asking them not to work or use Sprlngslde
coal. A report that the miners had con
structed a barbed wire trocha across the
roads leading to the mine la untrue.
Sheriff Coburn arrived from Taylorvllle
today and posted nil over the city section ! ) of
the criminal code regarding the assembling
of miners , Intimidation , etc. Ho also swora
In a large force of extra deputy sheriffs to
guard the negro laborers who will be
brought here from the couth Sunday , It I *
said , and put to work at the Sprlngslde mlno
Monday. Many deputies summoned have re
fused to serve and the sheriff will likely
have to go out of the city to secure a suffi
cient force. In case of the Importation of
negroes , the city , It Is cald , will be flooded
with miners from the Danville and Spring
field districts and the citizens fear that
bloodshed and death can hardly be averted.
