Things are livening up for the republican
primaries which are to bo held throughout
tln > county this afternoon. Thu big
light Is solng to occur In the Fourth ward ,
, where John L. Webster has undertaken to
put through a tlckut pledged to let him
naino the candidates on the legislative
ticket. This ticket Is sailing under the
head of T. W. lllackburn for county at
torney , but this Is only a blind , as Olack-
burn had llttlo or nothing to do with mak
ing 'tho ' delegation. In fact , Webster men
nro peddling red , whlto and blue cards , In
scribed , "Tho following ticket Is for
John L. Webster lor United States
senator. " The Webster delegation lb
headed by Attorney John W. Uatttn ,
nnd Is loaded ui > with the old Webster-
Uroatch gang. The petition an which It
was filed was headed with the signature of
John L. Webster himself , nnd Webster put
up the money to pay for Its filing.
Mr. Webster has unloosed his purse
strings and U pouring forth money
to all the riffrafflo have
Influence In the Fourth ward
to sell. The performances of his lieutenants
in this direction are disgusting the decent
clement of the ward , which Is rallying to
the support of an unpledged delegation
bended by Gustave Anderson , and which
occupies the ilrst column on the official bal
lot.
In the First ward the fight hinges os
tensibly on a preference for county attor
ney , but the Websterlan hand Is behind It
trying to secure delegates pledged to Web
ster's legislative slate.
\Vubnter Men I'nllliiK Off.
The same Is true In the Second ward
where a ticket was put up In Webster's in
terest In opposition to the regular tlckel
nominated by the ward club. Hero Wcbstei
is having a hard tlmo trying to hold hit
men , two of them , Gustavo Andrecn am
Nols P. Swonson , having pulled oft wher
they discovered who was trying to usi
them.
All Is serene in the Third ward , whcr
there Is but ono ticket.
Intho Fifth ward the contest is betwcoi
delegations favorable to Hugh Myers on on
Blilo and James Y. Craig on the other , to
the legislature.
In the Sixth ward there Is a partial tlckc
ngalnst the regular club nominations wh <
are committed for Nelson C. Pratt fo
i county attorney. The six outsiders are sal
to bo put up In opposition to W. I. Kler
stead for county commissioner , with string
attached to them leading to John L. Web
ster's office.
Tbo Seventh ward has two delegation
contesting over the county attorneyshlp , on
of them for II. L. Day , the Seventh war
candidate ,
In the Eighth and Ninth wards there I
but one ticket respectively , although in th
Ninth the names of J. A. Beverly , H. 1
Olmstcd and William A. Gardner appear fo
preference of the delegation's vote for th
1 legislature.
At the primaries this afternoon th
now form of the Australian ballot will t
used for the first time at a republican prl
mary. Where there la a contest the oppos
Ins tickets are placed In columns side b
elilc , with a circle at the top of each. 11
putting a cross In the circle the voter can j
vote a straight ticket for all the names ap- ,
pcarlng below It. If ho wants to swatch a |
ticket ho places hla crosses In the squares
opposite tbo names of the men he wishes
to vote for.
The primaries open at 12 o'clock and con
tinue open until 7 o'clock p. m. The list of
polling places Is iu follows :

NON-UNION PLASTERER SHOT
Police ItcMiiond to Itlot Call and Arc
Flrfd On by Mrlkern UliiK-
Icudi'rn Arc Arrested.
ST. LOUIS , Sept. IS. Striking plasterers
precipitated a riot today at DC Hodlamont ,
at the western limits of the city , in which
\Villlam Kane , a nonunion worker , was fa
tally wounded and three others seriously
hurt. Mounted police responded to a riot
call and were met by a fusillade of bullets
from the strikers. The police replied with a
number of shots and a charge on the crowd ,
dispersing them and resulting In the arrest
of Nat Drown and Joe Lee , who are thought
to bo the ringleaders.
For sometime there has been a strlko on
among the plasterers of this city and vicin
ity for higher wages , but until today no
serious trouble has resulted. About 7 a. m.
strikers gathered In considerable force near
Ucrry's saloon In DC Hodlamont to prevent
nonunion men from going to work on some
buildings nearby. Derisive and abusive
words led to the throwing of stones , and one
striker drew his revolver and fired Into the
crowd of nonunion men. This was followed
Immediately by a volley from the strikers
and Kane fell fortally wounded. When the
mounted police came they were met by a
volley of bullets. The strikers fled and Cap
tain McNamee nt once called out all the po
licemen available to chase and capture them.
Reports from the scene of the riot are that
the chase developed Into a running fight be-
twen the police and some of the strikers ,
tbo result of which la not yet known.

SINKING FUND GETS LITTLE'
Bolln Judgment Pund Will Be Used to Pay
Current Obligations.
NEW JAIL TAKES MOST OF THE MONEY

Urnvtlnic Interest.
While the city council has not yet form-
nlly and officially decided what to do with
the $33,000 settlement money received from
the Dolln bondsmen , the members have
practically agreed thnt the money will not
be put In the sinking fund , but that the
biggest part of It shall bo used In paying up
the Indebtedness Incurred by the city lu
securing now city jail quarters.
U la believed that very nearly J23.000
of tbo amount will bo needed for this pur
pose. In the first place , there Is owing to
the school board on the purchase prjce of
the Dodge school building and Blto $15,000 ,
which Is drawing Interest at 5 per cent.
Then some $5,000 U being put Into a stable
and several thousands more have been ex
pended In transforming ; the school building
Into a jail. The city councllmen believe the
total expense thus Incurred will not bo much
ICES than $25,000.
The city fathers arc also thinking of
spending a good portion of the remaining
$10,000 In taking up other obligations. For
example , a number are In favor of using
some $3,000 In paying damages awarded ad
joining property owners when the Sixteenth
street viaduct was built. There are other
claims being pressed forward and altogether ,
It the councilman's Ideas are carried out ,
there Is likely to bo but a small sum , if
any at all , to put Into the sinking fund.
Councilman Stunt Is vigorously opposing
this manner of expending the money. He Is
In favor of putting the entire lump sum Into
the sinking fun to pay city obligations as
they fall duo. Tbo fact that his Ideas of
the matter are not being followed out has
resulted In his accusations against his fel
low councllmen. One of the other councilmen -
men voices the objections held by the ma
jority of the members against disposing ol
the money thus In this way : "There would
bo no economy In putting tbo money In
the sinking fund. U might Ho there a long
while without being used , as there Is plenty
of money on hand to pay city obligations ,
and once In the fund It could not be taken
out again. On the other hand , It would
be more businesslike to take up obligation :
such as our jail debt and thus save the
Interest that would bo accruing all tin
while. "
The matter still rests In a commlttee'i
hands and will probably not be disposed o
until the council resolves Itself Into a bodj
to examine Into the financial condition o
the city. This meeting Is expected to maki
place In the near future.

CHICAGO , Sept. 15. C. A. Mntts , Edward
Kcofo and L. II. Kurten , officials of the
American Iron and Metal company , ono of
the largest concerns of Its kind In this city ,
have been arrested on a charge of larceny ,
at the Instance of officials of the Santa Fe
railroad. For several months past many of
the railroads entering Chicago , especially
the Santa Fo company , have been robbed of
hundreds of dollars worth of Iron and steel
rails. The rails were picked up all along
the road at night and hauled away In wag-
I ons. So frequent became the thefts and to
| extensive the operations of the men
, that Special Agent Qulnn of the
i Santa Fe took personal charge of the matter -
! ter with the result that Kecfe , Matts and
j Kurten were arrested , charged with being
the thieves. Nearly 1,000 feet of rails were
found in their place of business , but they
deny having stolen them and say they pur
chased the stuff from a well dressed man.
Keefo is a well known politician of Chicago.
SWEEPING REFORMS IN CHINA

PEKIN. Sept. 15. Marqula Ito , who Is1
understood to bo visiting China for the pur
pose of arranging an offensive and defensive
alliance between China and Japan , arrived
1 here today and was received at the railroad
i station by notabilities specially ordered by
' the emperor to welcome the distinguished
visitor.
An edict has been published suspending the
postal operations throughout the empire and
replacing the present nystoin of government
couriers. The edict Introducing reforms and
I | cutting down expenditures proves that the
i i emperor's advisers are bent upon a policy
. ' which can only be the result of a complete
t change of opinion. Most of the Chinese and
3 the old European residents look upon the
- change as being too sweeping and irritating
. to the Ofllclal classes , but It Is evident the
- emperor has decided to abolish many abusea
y and his efforts are welcomed by all the
i enllghtend Chinese , who , however , counsel
I. moderation.

Jo the IIiiHliirMn for the Men
from the North How the
Tiventy-iSccond Fared.
Sergeant Samuel W. Douglas , Tenth
United States cavalry and veteran of 31-
boney , Las Uuasimas and Santiago , Is spend
ing a few weeks In the city recovering from
the Cuban fever and visiting the exposi
tion previous to returning to his regiment
nt Montauk Point , L. I. Sergeant Douglas ,
who Is a colored man , was not affected by
the climate during his stay in Cuba and
waa only taken ill when ho had boarded
ship for the return. In speaking of the
amount of sickness among the soldiers the
sergeant says It is entirely due from the
Inevitable privations of a campaign in an
enemy's country that no foresight could pos
sibly have averted. The sickness is due ,
ho said , to neither the scarceness nor the
quality of the rations , but Is largely trace
able to weather conditions. After the regi
ment landed near Stboney on June 22 camp
was pitched on a neighboring hill so ex
posed that no flro could be lighted at night.
It was necessary , therefore , to sleep In the
trenches , drenched either by ratn which fell
In generous quantities or by a saturating
dew. In the morning the sun rose with
an unhealthy warmth and the ground soon
became in a steaming condition. Sergeant
Douglas speaks of the rainfall as being ex
cessively heavy and constant and said that
' from June 30 to July 3 every soldier In Cuba
was wet through continuously. As to the
rations as far as the sergeant's regiment
I was concerned there was plenty and to ,
spare. Hard tack , bacon , sugar , coffee , to
matoes and potatoes were Issued In sufficient
quantities and everybody had plenty to cat
In the neighborhood of the Tenth cavalry.
, Alfred Morris of the Twenty-second in
fantry was also a witness to the same
stirring scenes and gives a graphic account ;
of his experience at El Cancy In a letter
to relatives In this city. "Tho enemy opened
fire early on July 1 , " ho says , "and I saw
men of my company fall all around me. I ,
together with others , gave the wounded all
the help I could and though bullets were
flying about llko hall I escaped without o
scratch. I was In an open field In front ol
the fortifications when our chaplain wo ;

KIRK PHILLIPS TALKS POLITICS
Henuhllcnti Candidate for Governor of
South DnUotn ISxpectH < i majority
1m November.
DEADWOOD , S. D , , Sept. 15. ( Special. )
"I haven't heard of a single man who voted
the republican ticket two years ago In Sout'h
Dakota who proposes to vote anything else
this fall , " declares Kirk 0. Phillips , present
state treasurer of South Dakota , and re
publican nomlnco for governor. "And , as an
Instance of recent additions Co the party
strength , we bad a number of men as dele
gates In the Lawrence county republican
convention last Saturday who In 1896 were
with the opposition.
"It IB too early In the campaign to make
any figures as Do what our republican ma
jority will be ; but even If the vote should
be taken right now I would have no appre
hension of the result. I believe our chances
will grow largely between now and No
vember , and we hope to leave no question
In the minds of homcseekcrs and Investors
that South Dakota has been redeemed.
"A meeting of the executive committee
of the state central committee and the can
didates for state offices Is Do bo herd at Sioux
Falls this afternoon , and wo then will map
out a campaign , The Indications are that
nil we have to do Is to organize so as to
Induce every possible republican to get out
to the polls. Two years ago rho Interest In
tbo great questions Involved made it easy
to stimulate the voters , but this year there
seems to be such apathy that it may bo
difficult to rally the strength of the party.
The opposllon will hope to gain some ad
vantage by hustling out Its fuTl force ; but
It hasn't enough votes to como anywhere
near winning even If It ) gets them all out ,
if republicans can bo made to realize the
danger.
"I have received a great many communi
cations from different parts of the state ,
and there Is hopefulness In all of them.
The conditions are such as to warrant It.
j The administration of President McKlnley
i has been a republican votio getter. The
j harmony In the republican party of the
state la much more cordial than the op
position had hoped It would be. The dls-
Benslons which Pcttlgrew .and the rest
thought they would bo able to Incite have
not ) matcrlallicd. We enter upon the cam-
I palcn with our forces practically united ,
| white the other fellows are suffering
i sloughs calculated to take the vim out elI
them. "
j "What U there to this threat of the oppo
slt'lon to make damaging disclosures In tin
campaign about you loaning the funds ol
the treasury and taking Interest thereon ? '
\ Mr. Phillip * was asked.
. | "Well , they may open up on that sort ol
} thing at any time they BOO fit. Even If I hac
t wanted to loan the state funds , which 1
j did not , I could not possibly have done si
j without the connivance of Governor Lee , ai
i every drtall of the handling of the publli
i money has bwn with bis knowledge am
consent. The legislature of 1895 enacted i
raw which provides In detail how the stati
treasurer's accounts must be kept , and the ;
have been kept exactly In accordance there
with In every particular over since I havi
occupied the office. The treasurer mus
a make a complete settlement with the gov
e ernnr every month , making a statement ! a
p to where the funds In his hands nro de
: . posited. All banks which are deposltorle
' of the Btato funds must make a full show
1 In ? of what they have on hand , with ever
j detail of tbo account , and this showing mua
. be under oath.
rt | "There never hai been a month lnc
Governor Lee took the executive chair that
ho has not had these statements from me
and from the banks In which the state funds
are deposited precisely In accordance with
the law , and ho has been kind enough on
various occasions to declare his gratifica
tion at the way In which the treasurer's
office has been administered. Notwithstand
ing we ore competitors for t'ho same office
In this campaign , I do not believe ho would
either personally or on the stump give any
support whatever to the Insinuations of
como members of tbo opposition that thcro
has been anything In my conduct ) of tha
treasurer's office thnt was not entirely In
accordance with law and equity. I have
sufficient confidence in the manhood of Gov
ernor Leo to rery upon his unwillingness to
make any statements In public different
torn those which he so oft'cn has made to
me and to others in private as to the cou-
luct of my office.
"I have never made a deposit of a single
dollar of the state funds for any special
engtu of time. Every deposit Is subject to
call at any time. Thcro has never been
i day during ray administration of the
: rcasUror'B office when every dollar was not
nstantly and Immediately available. I
never have either directly or Indirectly
oaned a slnglo dollar of the public funds.
Even if I had been disposed to do no , it
could not have been done without ) detec-
.lon under a law passed by a republican
cgtslature. I have regularly deposited the
: unds in regular banks , as is evidently con-
: emplated by the law. Therefore , any tlmo
that the opposition desires to make my ad
ministration of the state treasurer's olTlco
an Issue In this campaign I am perfectly
willing to go before the people on that Is
sue. "
