LINCOLN. May 10. (Special Telegram.)
A fight tonight between about 200 atudenta
of the State university, fourteen policemen,
a crowd of showmen and the management
of the Eagles' carnival resulted In break
ing up a shirt-tall parade, the carnival, a
number of heads and several policemen's
clubs.
The flgtit started by an attempt of the
students to march through the carnival
groands In shirt-tall costume, as they had
done through many of the stores and ho
tels. The students Injured were: J. W. Earle,
Columbus; Claude Flansberg, Lincoln; C.
H. Bryan, Fillmore; C. B. Cotton. Syra
cuse; C. O. Hruveaky, Geneva; B. I. Dill,
Franklin, and O. Hannon.
On the other side these were rounded
up among the Injured: Richard Minor.
Jack Waldron. F. A. Shelly, Tom Crawford.
A mighty Host was knocked down and
lightly cut and bruised, but not suffi
ciently Injured to be taken home In hacks.
These atudenta were arrested and re
leased on their own recognliance to appear
In police court In the morning: O. A.
Delacey, L. M. Huntington and Clyde
Cooper. Huntington was also slightly In
jured. No one was seriously hurt, the' principal
Injuries being cracks on the head and
alight scalp wounds.
The students went to the main entrance
of the carnival grounds about B o'clock and
started to enter without the formality of
buying tickets. The police pushed them
back and the boys then charged on both
the north and south sides of the grounds
and attempted to enter through the can
vas. All of the employes and show people
were sworn In as deputies and the fight
started. Clubs, rocks and everything avail
able waa used by both sides and the fight
ing became general all over the grounds.
One woman waa struck In the face by a
brick and slightly cut. Baby carriages
were overturned and a general scramble
was mads to get out of the grounds. After
several atrenuous minutes the students
were "beaten back and driven down, the
streets, where they later .met In doctors'
offices. It waa thought a second attempt
would be made to carry the carnival
grounds, but a heavy rain began to fall and
the bout, the carnival and everything waa
declared off. None of the regular police
men were Injured. '

WASHINGTON. May 20. An Interesting
summary of the opinions of public men
now JLn Washington as to be outlook for
different presidential aspirants makes It ap
pear that republicans who are In Wash
ington now or have been within the last
few weeks are united for the nomination of
President Roosevelt. It further shows that
the democrats could not be more widely
apart on the same Interesting question.
There Is former Secretary of the Treasury
John O. Carlisle, who has come to Wash
ington on legal business, and who will not
commit himself further than to say he Is
for any one "who can consolidate the
party," but he does not know who that
some one Is nor will he venture a guess.
"Pitchfork" Tillman raves and tears hla
hair over the mention of the name ot
Drover Cleveland, and says In so many
words that the mere mention of the possi.
blllty of Mr. Cleveland being again nomin
ated by the democrats Is an Insult to the
Intelligence of the party. Then Mr. Till
man discusses the failure of the Bryan
men to do anything but get the democratic
party Into a chaotic state. He refuses to
name his choice, and It Is difficult to de
clde who he really standa for unless It I
for Tillman. ..'.-
Selser for Parker. "
. Representative Sulser, who has a good
deal more political acumen and is In much
closer touch with the Inside of New York
democratic politics than he Is given credit
for, declare that the democratic Moses Is
none other than Judge Parker, who can
carry the state of New York hands down.
In spite of Sulaer's windy harangues hla
associates are beginning to realise that
when he leaves expansion and the' Cuban
question alone he Is not only very rational
but exceedingly Intelligent and prophetlo In
his discussion of things political.
Representative Bankhead of Alabama
come out for Senator Gorman. Bankhead
said privately, however, that Judge Par
ker did not have a chance to carry any ot
the doubtful democratic territory, as he
waa practically unknown outside of his own
state, and all the enemlea of Dave Hill be
lieve he Is Hill's stalking horse and are
sharpening their knives to puncture his
boom.
Brraa Booms Judge Clark.
Chief Justice Walter Clark of the North
Carolina supreme court Is the choice ot
William J. Bryan for the democratic presi
dential nomination in 1904, according to au
thority that haa reached Washington.
While In Washington last It seems that Mr.
Bryan experienced a desire to discuss
politics, and accordingly arranged for an
Interview with Joe Blackburn. It Is re
lated that at the conference Mr. Bryan
sounded Blackburn aa to hla choice of a
presidential nominee. The Kentucklan
offered the name of all the well-known
democrats who have been discussed, but
Mr. Bryan objected to each of them. Then
Mr. Bryan said . he had In mind a man
who filled every requirement for the party
leadership In the next presidential contest,
and suggested Judge Walter Clark, chief
Justice of the North Carolina supreme
court. Mr. Bryan said: "He la an honest
and courageous man, standing squarely on
the party platform." - '
Some months ago Judge Clark wa' th
guest of Mr. Bryan at his home In Lin
coln, where he spent several days. It Is
said of Judge Clark that he is more popu
HsUo than Mr. Bryan. In 1896 h went to
Mexico to atudy the free allver question.
The same year he accepted the populistlo
nomination for chKf Justice, after having
been nominated by the democrats.

BIG FRUIT COMPANY fails
Coaeera that llaadles Great Part of
the California, Ores la Heads
of Receiver.
SAN FRANCISCO, May SO-Th Com
mercial community here waa stirtled to
day by the Information received - from
Chicago that the Porter Brothers company,
which handldj a great part of the fruit
crop of the state, had been placed in the
hands of a receiver.
This unexpected act was taken by the
United States district court ot the north
ern district of Illinois and, according to
the news given out In this city, was
forced by the demands of the bankers on
the firm at a time when a good part of
Its funds are in the hands of fruit growers.
The receiver appointed Is Henry L. Wilson
of Chicago, and In a telegraphic communi
cation to. Thomas Lynch and Charles B.
Bills, local agents, he has designated them
as temporary receivers In this city to art
as his representatives until the affairs of
the corporation are straightened out.
The Porter Brothers company Is one ot
the largest houses In the United States,
dealing directly with the growers of fresh
fruits. It has branches in New York,
Boston, Chicago, Minneapolis, Bt. Paul,
San Francisco and agencies in all fruit
producing sections of the eonntijy.
All of the managers have been te'e
graphed to by Receiver Wilson to conduct
the business In his name for the prevent
aa he haa assumed full management. The
amount of the company's liabilities are
not known, but It la assumed by those In
a position to make an estimate that they
may run Into the millions.
In his ' message to the San Franclsoo
managers, Receiver Wilson state'd that the
assets would exceed the liabilities and the
embarrarement of the firm would be only
temporary.
Messrs. Lynch and Bills, San Francisco
representatives of the receiver, are now
following directions, making accounts of
the agencies and endeavoring to ascertain ,
the exact condition of the company'a af
fairs. The receiver Is a prominent finan
cial man of Chicago and is looked upon to
protect the Interests of the creditors.
Al the local offices of Porter Brothers
It was announced the failure was due to
th demand of banks for the payment ot
several heavy notes.
It Is probable," said Mr. Bills, the
local manager, "that the banka pressed
their claims without giving the Chicago
office notice. In other words th Chicago
office waa caught short. No doubt the
company has sufficient money to pay all
Its creditors, but lacked the money with
which to get together."
One estimate places th possible liabili
ties at $3,000,000.
CHICAGO, May JO. John R. Adams, one
of the Chicago members of Porter Bros.,
aid today:
The receivership proceedings occurred
on May If. Every effort was made to keep
the matter quiet, and up to today were
successful."
Leonard B. Weed, Benjamin F. Smith
and Thomas F. Beaven, all of Chicago, are
named aa the petitioners and alleged in
debtedness for money loaned on several
notes, aggregating 15,000, and declared the
belief of th petitioners that preferential
rantment la being accorded other creditors.
No details aa to the assets or liabilities
were obtainable ' today. Receiver Wilson
asserted that he had no knowledge con
cernlng the condition of the ' company'a
affairs and would not before Friday. On
that day a meeting of the members of th
firm would be held and hla belief waa that
tha difficulties would be overcome.

This morning the bulla were favored by
the Liverpool cables, which reached further

the bulla carried all before them, and th

Clerk Too Rameroaa.
Th new schedule approved by th post

several grades In which there 1 an ex
cess above the legal number and in which
7,402 promotions have been authorised. Th
report says:
It will not be necessary In any case to
reduce any clerk, but simply to cancel 1,046
out of 7.4i promotions heretofore author
ised to take effect on July 1, 1908. We will
proceed at once to ascertain exactly the
number of promotions In each grade that it
will be necessary to cancel at each post
office and will then inform the postmasters
and allow them to secure the increases
which must be cancelled.
Most of the excesses In the number In
the respective grades of clerk scattered
throughout the United State at first class
presidential offices are In the 1900 and (1.000
per annum classes. The excesses In grade
ar divided among those grades aa follows:
Two hundred and fifty-eight excess In the
1700 grade, 852 In th 1900 grade, 936 in the
11.000 'grade, 461 In the 11,100 grade, 243 In
