SH[]T BY THE POLICE Five San Francisco Nonunion Carmen in the Hospital. ATTACKED BY HOSTILE MOB Disregarded Order of the Officers Not to Shoot at the Crowd Whereupon the Police Used Their Revolvers With the Result Stated. San Francisco, Sept. 12—As the re- sult of an attack made on nonunion carmen by a crowd of strike sym- pathizers five men were injured and are now in St. Luke’s hospital. The injured are: Morris Rosenborg, non- union conductor, bullet wound in chest; Roy Perkins, conductor, flosh wound in chest; J. J. Cotter, motor- man, bullet wound in arm; Harry Co- hers, conductor, bullet wound in leg; Frank Smith, conductor, bullet wound in arm. The trouble occurred when a wreck- ing car of the United Railroads, on which were about fifteen men, was ap- proaching the car barns at the corner of Utah and Twenty-fourth streets. As the car was passing a tent occu- pled by union pickets stones were thrown at it and shots were fired by some of the carmen, but none was hit. The car continued on its way to the barns, where a crowd had assem- bled. Some of the men alighted and the trouble began. Policemen Wade, Miller and Bigelow appeared on the scene and ordered the men mnot to shoot. It is said that this command was disregarded, whereupon the po- lice used their revolvers, five of the carmen being wounded. The union pickets who occupled the tent where the disturbance began say they were informed that a wrecking crew was going to make an attack on them at about the time the car ap- proached. H. Green, a nonunion car- man, was placed under arrest on sus- picion of having fired one of the shots. QUIET AT VANCOUVER. No Attempt to Renew Anti-Asiatic Rioting. Vancouver, B. C., Sept. 12.—Every- thing is quiet in and about the Ori- ental quarter and there has been no further attempt to renew the anti- Asiatic rioting. None of the Japanese has as yet returned to work in the lumber mills, which are closed down. The strike of the Chinese cooks bids fair to last longer and the restaurants are closed. Hotels, clubs and private famliles are making shift without cooks and Vancouver people are re- celving an object lesson in their de- pendence on Chinese domestics. The only development of the local anti-Asiatic situation was the action of K. Morikawa, Japanese consul. In great excitement Morikawa went to Mayor Bethune and demanded that he have the militia called out to protect his countrymen. Morikawa stated that an attempt was béing made to burn every Japanese house in Vancouver and that cotton waste saturated with oil had been found under the door of the Japanese Methodist church.

Their belief is now borne out by the dispatch stating that the eruption was In the Aleutian islands, off the coast of Alaska. TWO IOWA MEN KILLED. Meet Death While Working on a Ditching Machine.

Taft Managers Consider Candidates. ‘Washington, Sept. 12.—After a thor- ough canvass of the political situa- tlon in the various states the Taft campalgn managers claim there are only three men who seriously can be rated as Republican presidential fac- tors. They are President Roosevelt Becretary Taft and Governor Hughes of New York. The Taft leaders recognize the fact Possible that the Roosevelt third term demand Since May, 1bU0, Ayer's Sarsaparilla has been entirely free from alcohol.

They also recognize that the country over there is a strong latent sentiment for Governor Hughes, The Knox boom is declared to have come to a standstill and the booms of Charles Warren Fairbanks and of Speaker Cannon are likewise at-a standstill from the Taft information bureau’s viewpoint. It is denied that Illinois will be for Fairbanks for sec- ond cholce. It is declared positively that on second choice the Illinois dele- gation will go to Taft. In the Southwest and West, where Taft has been speaking, the Taft lead- ers have been getting highly reassur- ing advices. Among the states that have lately swung into line for Taft is Missourl. Such assurances have been given the Taft managers by prominent Missourl politicians that they consider themselves justified in relying on a solid delegation from that state for the Ohio man.

Saville, professor of ethnology at Columbia university, who has returned from a trip to Ecuador, said he had discov- ered the ruins of cities near the coast which contained many evidences of a race hitherto unknown to present day scientists. The professor’s researches extend- ed along the Pacific coast about fifty miles to the north and about the same distance to the south of the equator. Somewhere between these points and to a distance about ten miles inland he found evidences of a city of antiquity. The city, he said, had streets lined with houses of singular construction. Though the dwellings had been made of light material, a sort of palmetto or thatch, they had been constructed evldently with a view of withstanding the shocks of the frequent earth- quakes of the region and were intact. In them were found utensils for cooking and other domestic purposes, made of pottery, wood and the like. He said he believed the city had con- tained 3,000 or more people 500 years ago. In his opinion the race was one of the highest in civilization living in America previous to the coming of Columbus. BIG SHORTAGE DISCOVERED Missing Clerk Accused of Get- ting Away With $100,000. New Orleans, Sept. 12.—A $100,000 shortage has been discovered in the accounts of the state tax commission- er in this city. The police are search- Ing for Charles E. Letten, chief clerk to State Tax Collector John Fitzpat- rick of the First district, who is charged with the defalcation. This is the third defalcation in six months in the Louisiana state tax de- partment, the two previous shortages totalling nearly $100,000 and for the second time there is no clue to the whereabouts of the missing official. A cursory examination of the books of Mr. Letten indicates a deficit of about $100,000. All the machinery of the police departments of this and sur- rounding states is being used to as- certain Letten’s whereabouts. He has held the pesition for nineteen years and no record can be found of any bond having been required of him. FATHERS UPHOLD SONS. Minneapolis Men Will Fight Anti- Fraternity Law.

FIGHTY JEWS KILLED Another Serious Outbreak Occurs at Kishinef, Russia, FORMER AFFAIR SURPASSED Jewish Quarter of Kishinef Attacked by Organized Bands of Roughs, Who Looted Houses and Shops and Murdered Their Defenders. Braila, Roumania, Sept. 12.—News- papers here have received reports of enother serious and atrocious antk Jewish outbreak at Kishinef. It s estimated that no less than eighty Jews lost their lives in encoun- ters with the inflamed populace. The Jewish quarter of Kishinef was attacked by organized bands of roughs, who looted houses and shops and ruthlessly killed or, wounded all those who attempted to defend their prop- erty. The Jews are fleeing from Kishinet in a state of panic. Many of them Wwho made their way to the banks ol the Pruth in the hope of finding pro- tection in Roumania were driven back by frontier guards. If this dispatch frcm Braila is cor- rect in its estimate of the number killed -at Kishinef then the terrible affrays which took place in this Rus- sian city on April 19 and 20, 1903, the news of which shocked the world, have been surpassed in mortality at least. In the massacre of four years ago forty-five Jews were killed, eighty-four were seriously wounded, 6500 were crippled and injured and no less than 10,000 were rendered homeless and destitute. The soldiers of the empire looked on passively at the murdering and pillaging until at last they were or- dered to act for the protection of the victims, Kishinef is the capital of Bessara- bia. It has a population of about 115, 000, nearly half of which are Jews. READY TO FIGHT CHOLERA German Officials Fear Disease May Spread There. Berlin, Sept. 12.—A railway work- man at Koenigschuette is dead under circumstances which lead the authori- ties to suspect that he succumbed to cholera. The imperial health authorities are preparing for all possible eventuali- tles and have placed the cholera de- tention houses In readiness for serv- ice, three of them being located in the suburbs of Berlin. The ofticial reports showing the progress made by cholera in Russia are disquieting.
