diers made their appearance.
The American minister in Madrid
announced on Wednesday that all
Americans in Barcelona or in the af
fected districts during the recent dis
orders are safe.
The officials at Barcelona are tak-
ing every precaution to prevent any
outbreak in the future. The terrible
repressive measures of the military
, authorities have left a deep under-
current of resentment among the
. masses and fears are still entertained
/

t in a new form. The people the clam-

i Denies Murders by Rioters.
Senor Solortega , a Republican Sen-
ator , has arrived at Madrid from Bar-
celona. He denies the recent move '
ment in that city was separatist and
says also that the revolutionists dur-
ing the two days they were masters
of the city did not commit a single
assassination or act of cruelty. The
inmates of the religious institutions
fled when the buildings were burned.
One of " the greatest losses in Barce
lona is the libraries of the Christian
schools and the Scientific museum ,
\
containing together 70,000 volumes. A
new civil governor of Barcelona has I
' \ been appointed.
The minister of the Interior has
given out a statement in which he
says , among other things , that not
only the reservists but volunteers are
flocking to the recruiting stations for
' service in Morocco.
Says Women Attacked.Monks. . .
The Paris Figaro's staff correspond-
I ent at Barcelona reports that the riot-
ers violated the sepulcher of nuns , but
did not harm living nuns. The monkr ,
however , were chased from convents
and monasteries while the women in
the crowds , who were especially en-
. raged , cried : "Away with you ! No
, longer will you steal our needle and
our broidery ; no longer will you pre
vent by your unfair competition our
women finding employment"
Some incidents of the rioting as
sumed the phase of grewsome buffoon- .
ery. In one convent where there was
a big stock of candles the women and
children * lighted these and held a
mock procession , and two mummified
bodies of nuns arrayed in magnificent
raiment were carried with mock pomp
. before the residence of a millionaire
, j
- citizen.

j of Injuries.
During a boxing bout on the bat-

at Provincetown. between two mess
attendants named Foster and Wil-
liams , the former received injuries
from which he died. The ship's police
placed Williams under surveillance : as
. soon as the ship's surgeon reported
that Foster had been hurt so severely
in the bout that his recovery was
1 doubtful. The men were to have box
, ed ten rounds , but the encounter was
stopped in the sixth round , when it
.
was seen that Foster was suffering in-
tensely and had no chance of win I

MADE IMMUNE : FROM TYPHOID.
Soldiers Undergo Test and Prove the
Value of IVevr Serum.
The last of the series of typhoid
tests have been applied to Sergeant
Fuller and Privates Schmidt and
Goodman , of Fort Omaha , and they
have been pronounced immune. In
June they were vaccinated with ty
phoid serum and developed the disease
in a mild form. Later they were vac-
cinated but the serum did not : "take. "
Ten days ago they underwent the su
preme test , that of drinking freely of
a gallon of stagnant water into which
one million fever germs had been
placed. The men were placed in the
hospital and closely watched. They
should have developed symptoms with-
in five to seven days , but as none has
appeared they are now declared im
mune.

FOIL $10,000 BLACKMALLES.
Threatens to Kidnap James A. Mc-
Clnrg'a Child and Dynamite Home.
A blackmailer attempted to obtain
$10,000 from James A. McClurg , son-
in-law of Banker D. C. Moffat , of Den-
ver , by sending a note demanding the
money under threat of kidnaping
Frances McClurg. his 17-year-old
daughter , and dynamiting the family
home. McClurg was instructed to put
the money in a sealed package , and
give it to a messenger boy who would
call for it. McClurg notified the po-
lice , and when the boy called he was
followed by detectives , but the black-
mailer must have seen the detectives ,
as he never appeared to meet the boy.

TRY TO WRECK TREASURE TEAU :
Obtruction on Burlington Track to
Ditch Car with $25OOOO.
As a passenger train on the Burling- -
ton was rounding a hazardous curve
for the station of Belmont , ten miles
out from Crawford , Neb. , the engineer
discovered on the track a few rods
ahead an obstruction composed of steel
rails. Engineer Wade stopped the
train within a few feet of the obstruc
tion. It is said that the express car
contained $250,000 in gold bullion bill-
ed to New York city. A farmer named
Chris Berger , found near the spot ,
was arrested. He pleads { nnocence ,
saying he was at the point to flag the
I
train to get into Alliance for medical
aid. Berger has a badly torn arm , 1 I
caused , he says , by the accidental dis-
charge of a shotgun.

Rosella Neff , 8 years old , was kid.I
naped from the home of her grand- I
parents in Sharon , Pa. , supposedly by

ing the arrest of the woman if she

Four little girls , ranging in age
from 10 to 14 years , lost their lives
in the Agawam River at West
Springfield , Mass. : The children were
wading. Alice Riley stepped on a
rock and slipped off into fifteen feet
of water. The other girls formed a
human chain to save her. In their
excitement they too stepped into deep
water. '
Contractors Found Guilty.
Michael J. Mitchell : , former purchas-
ing agent for the city , and Thomas
F. Maher : , a contractor , were found
guilty by a jury in the Superior Court

! HOUSE ADOPTS TARiff
- CONfERENCE REPORT
Vote Is 195 to 183 - Twenty Repub
licans Against Two Demo-
crats Favorable.
ALLEGED . JOKERS TJNEAETHED
Sensation Caused by Discovery ot
Tricks with Respect to Lumber
and Leather Bates.
The House of Representatives in
Washington ( adopted the conference
report on the tariff bill Saturday
night by a vote of 195 ! ) to 183. Pre
viously a motion to recommit the bill
.
to conference was defeated by a nar-
row margin-1S6 to 191. The pre
vious question on the motion to re-
commit was ordered after the House
had been in continuous session for
ten hours. Twenty Republicans : voted
against the adoption of the report.
They were :
Cary ( Wis. ) Miller ( Minn. )
Davis ( Minn. ) Murdoch ( Kan. )
Gronna ( N. D. ) Nelson ( Wis. )
Haugen ( Iowa ) Nye ( Minn. ) j
Hubbard ( Iowa ) PoindexterWa'sh. )
Keifer ( Ohio ) Southwick ( N. Y. )
Kendall ( Iowa ) Steenerson ( Minn. )
Lenroot ( Wis. ) Stevens ( Minn. )
Lindberg ( Minn. ) Volstead ( Minn. )
Mann ( Ill. ) Woods ( Iowa )
Two Democrats , Broussard and Es-
topinal of Louisiana voted for the re-
port. The Republicans voting to re
commit the bill were/ twenty-two in
number , as follows :
Cary ( Wis. ) Miller ( Minn. )
Davis ( Minn , ) Murdock ( Kan. )
Good ( Iowa ) , Nelson ( Wis. )
Gronna ( X. D. ) Norris ( Neb. )

Lenroot ( Wis. ) Southwick ( N. Y. )
Lindberg ( Minn. ) Steenerson ( Minn. )
Madison ( Kan. ) Vreeland ( N. Y. )
Mann ( Ill. ) Woods ( Iowa )
Chairman Payne made the motion
to recommit to shut off Representa-
tive Mann , who was ready to move to
recommit with instructions. Under
the rules only one motion to recom-
mit is in order , and the strategy of
Mr. : Payne who voted against his own
motion , of course , prevented a direct
vote on any specific feature of the
conference report.
Of even greater interest In some
respects , than the formal proceedings
in the House was the alleged discov-
ery of startling jokers in the confer-
ence report with respect to lumber
and leather. These alleged jokers
were brought to notice through the
meeting of the progressive Senators
Saturday afternoon and in circles
where the information penetrated It
caused a" decided sensation.
GOTHAM : : HAS MOTH PEST.
Myriads of ' White and Drown Insets
Again Sweep Over New York.
What appeared to be a heavy mid-
winter snowstorm was really myriads
of small white moths which again
I visited New York all Sunday night.
I Again the little pests swarmed into
the brightly lighted hotels and restau-
rants and clouded the street lamps ,
but this time they were accompanied
by millions of large brown moths ,
some of them five inches from tip to
tip , and as these fluttered about the
lights they looked like bats. A strange
feature of these visitations which
this summer are worse than ever be-
fore , and which the entomologists
are trying to fathom , is what becomes
of the moths at the break of day.
With the first ray of daylight , they
disappear , but no one has found
where they go.

A report widely published was to
the effect that the Standard Oil Com '

on a large scale. Later officials of the

Cleveland Mayor's 3 Cent Carfar *
Grant Beaten in Beferondom.
Mayor Tom L. Johnson on Tuesday
received the most severe defeat of bit-
career in Cleveland when the Schmidt"
street railway grant was turned dowrn .
at the referendum election by a ma +
jority of 3.7G3 votes after a campalg .
which has been the most bitter of re
cent years. The vote stood : For ti s -
grant , 31.022 ; against. 34,785.
The Schmidt grant provided for .

With the defeat of the Schmidt
grant , the alternative evidently de
sired by the public is the so-callefi. :
Taylor plan , suggested by Federal - -
Judge Taylor , which provides tha
new grants shall be made to the Cleve
land Railway Company : on the basis
of an income of G per cent to the
stockholders at a fair valuation , the-
fare to be as low as this income wili
allow with good service on all lines.
Mayor Johnson early admitted his-
defeat and stated that the fight woulc
go on even though he is beaten at the-
mayoralty election in the fall. What
move he will make next has not be .
announced.
