SUBSCRIPTION---85.00 PER ANNU CLASH AT CASA BLANCA. Fatal Encounter Between French and | Spanish Troops. Casa Blanca, May 1.—There was an encounter here May 12 between | some French and Spanish troops quartered in the port. The Spaniards fired first, it is alleged, and the French Zouaves replied in kind. One Span- iard was killed and another wounded, while the French had two men wound- ed. The encounter was the outcome of a quarrel between some Spanish sol- diers and an unarmed Algerian sharp- shooter. The Algerian was knocked down and beaten by the Spaniards and is now dying. A sergeant of Zou- aves, who was in charge of the gate, rushed to the rescue of the sharp-| shooter and with the aid of a French subaltern tried to intervene. The ser- geant and the officer were without arms. At this peint some Spaniards who were behind a wall opened fire. The interchange of shots continued for some minutgs, with the result above stated. The firing from the French side was done by Zouaves. Madrid, May 15.—The minister ofl foreign affairs, upon being informed | of the encounter at Casa Blanca be- tween French and Spanish troops, de- manded details and explanations from Paris. The matter has created considerable excitement here. Some newspapers advise the immediate withdrawal of the Spanish troops, saying there is bad blood between them and the French and that a repetition of the trouble is likely if they remain in! contact. LIAILiTIES $2,7OEOOO. Reserve Trust Company of Cleveland Makes Assignment. Cleveland, May 15.—The Reserve Trust company has made an assign- ment to the Superior Savings and Trust company. The liabilities of the concern are about $2,700,000. Inabil- ity to realize on outstanding loans is sald to have precipitated the failure. { Officers of the bank say depositors will be paid in full. The capital and surplus of the bank is $300,000. Adam Graham is pres- ident and William N. Perrin secretary and treasurer. The latter was for- merly a director in the Ohio Trust company of Norwalk, O., which closed its doors in January last. The follow- ing notice was posted at the entrance of the Reserve Trust company: “The Reserve Trust company has made an assignment to the Superior Savings and Trust company for the benefit of creditors. It is the belie: of the officers of the Reserve Trust company that the assets are sufficient to pay the depositors in full. A fur- ther statemont will be made by the assignees as soon as an examination of the books and assets of the Reserve Trust company has been completed.” The American Savings bank, a small eoncern, closed its doors following a run of withdrawals. It was stated that an attempt was being made to have one of the large financial insti- tutions of the city tide the bank over its troubles and that it was hoped its doors could be reopened very soon. The capital of the bank is $50,000. It has deposits amounting to about $300,- | 000. TWO DIE IN FLAMES. Children Perish in Burning Home While Parents Are Absent. ‘Waterloo, Ia., May 15—When Wal- ter Potter and wife returned from Greene to their farm home they found the home destroyed by fire and the children, Charles, aged nine, and Merle, aged seven, so badly burned that they died later. The children used kerosene to start a fire, the oil can exploding. The boy ran forty rods with his clothing afire to a neigh- bor’s. When he arrived there his clothing was burned off and he col- lapsed. The little girl was taken from the building by the neighbors, but died soon after. Decree in McKee Divorce Case.

Three IF BRYAN IS NOMINATED. Nebraskan’s Daughter Wil| Speak in Woman Suffrage States. Omaha, May 15.—In case William J. Bryan receives the Democratic nomination his daughter, Mrs. Ruth Sryau Leavitt, will take the stump in olorado, Wyeming and several other Western states and will campaign in her father's interests. This information was given out in Omaha by Mayor Dahlman, who has Just returned from Denver, where he bas been with other Democratic na- Honal committeemen completing ar- rangements for the convention. Mrs. Leavitt will confine her efforts to women and will only stump those states which have woman suffrage laws. She is a forceful and fluent Minnesota Democrats Endorse Johnson for President, BRYAN MEN OUTNUMBERED Make Hard Fight to Secure Adoption of Resolution Making Nebraskan the Second Choice of the Minnesota Delegation. 8t. Paul, May 15.—The Democratic state convention at the Auditorium in | this city was in complete control of the Johnson men and Minnesota’s governor was endorsed for president and the state delegation to Denver in- structed to vote as a unit for his nom- ination. Supporters of Willlam J. Bryan attempted to add the following amendment to the resolutions, but failed: “Resolved, That in pledging our ad- herence to the candidacy of Governor Johnson we do not disparage or over- look the great service to the party, the nation and the world of that great commoner, brilliant orator and fear less reformer, William Jennings Bry- an, and we instruct the delegates from Minnesota to the national Democratic convention in Denver that, in case the nomination of Governor Johnson be- comes impossible, to vote for William J. Bryan without variation or excep- tion until a candidate is nominated.” The conventien was called to order by Frank A. Day, chairman of the state central committee. Immediately after doing this he made a short ad- dress, saying among other things: “We Democrats of Minnesota have just pulled off one of the prettiest scraps in recent political history and I want to say for the majority that there has been nothing sald that we néed to recall, no deprecatory expres- sion concerning William J. Bryan.” Loud cheers greeted the mention of Bryan’s name, but this was utterly dwarfed an instant later when he de- clared that a prominent Democrat of Minnesota had in Washington given out through the Associated Press a statement calculated to injure John A. Johnson. A terrific yell followed the mention of Johnson’s name and the uproar continued for some time. Chairman Day then alluded to certain statements derogatory to Governor Johnson made by certain followers of Mr. Bryan, declaring them to be un- founded calumnies. He mentioned James Manahan of St. Paul as the in- stigator of some of these stories. He mentioned certain other Bryanites as having been co-laborers of Mr. Mana- han in this respect and then closed his address by advising the delegates to conduct their affairs with fairness and good humor. Senator Works for Chairman. State Senator S. D. Works of Man- kato was nominated for temporary chairman without opposition and he was unanimously -chosen. Senator ‘Works made a short address on taking the chair, predicting a brilliant polit- ical triumph next fall if the Democrats of the country nominated Governor Johnson at Denver in July. A motion that each judicial district name its members of the committees on rules, resolutions and credentials was adopted and a recess was taken to allow the districts to caucus and make their selections. After the formation of the three committees and the announcement of the lists of members by the secretary Chairman Works appointed as chair- man of the committee on resolutions T. D. O'Brien of St. Paul, on rules and permanent organization H. F. Weiss of Le Sueur county, on credentials J. C. Armson of Stillwater. A recess was then taken umtil 2 e’clock. The committee on credentials was not ready to report when the conven- tion met for the afternoon session. Only five contests had been taken up, those of Cottonwood, Hennepin, Fill- more, Itasca and Waseca. The Cot- tonwood delegation was divided half and half between the Johnson and Bryan factions. Itasca was given to Bryan and the others to Johnson. The promiged contest in Ramsey county (8t. Paul) was net brought before the committee, The report of the credentials com- miltee in conformity with the fore- golng was then read to the convention and adopted without a negative vote. The committee on organization rec- ommended that the temporary officers of the convention be made permanent and this was done unanimously. The report of the resolutions com- mittee was read by T. D. O'Brien of 8t Paul, chairman of that body. Be- fore commencing -to read the platform he announced that all the members of the committee except Knox of Jackson county and Whipple of Wi- nona had signed the report. The Resolutions Adopted. The resolutions afirm allegiance to he principles of the party of Jeffer- on and Jackson; commend the state administration; demand tariff re- vision; favor strict supervision and control of great industrial enterprises bnd public service corporations and on the question, of state rights the platform says: . “We believe that the powers ceded to the federal government by the states through the Constitution in its present form are ample. Notwith- standing the closer relations between the people which improved transporta: tion facllities have established a too great centralization of power is a1 dangerous now as when the Constitu- tion was framed. The powers reserved to the states are necessary to enable each to mamage its domestic and in- ternal affairs; to preserve the Amer- fcan principle of home rule; to pre- vent the exercise of autocratic power | by federal officers and to maintain be- tween the states a generous rivalry as to which can best present a system of wise laws and efficient administra- fion. “The dangers to be apprehended from centralization of power are al- speaker. ready apparent, for under autocratic FOR FAVORTE 'SON leadershlp congress has become In- active and no longer responds to the public will, while a bureaucratic form of government is belng rapidly ex- tended to a point which threatens the extinetion of state autonomy.” The endorsement of Governor John A. Johnson for president was couched in the following language: “In Governor John A. Johnson Min- nesota presents 4o the nation a Dem- ocratic candida for president of abil- ity, integrity and honor, a construc- tive statesman, who holds no brief from any class; one who from early youth hd¥ been a wage earner, whese private life has been of such purity, i vigor and earnestness as to win him the love and respect of all who know him. .In public life he has by his high sense of duty, impartiality and devotion to civic virtue won the ad- miration of all the people of his state, regardless of condition in life or polit- feal faith. “We, therefore, instruct our dele- gates to the national Democratic con- vention to vote as a unit for and con- tinue to so vote as long as necessary to secure the nomination of Hon. John A. Johnson as the candidate for president.” VIEW OF ADMIRAL EVANS United States Should Have Forty-eight Battieships. Chicago, May 1,—Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans of the United States navy passed through Chicago on his ‘way home to rest and retirement from active service. He spent four hours in the city, keeping entirely to his private car, in which he received friends and submiited to newspaper interviews. Incidentally he made the statement in his most emphatic man- ner that America needed a fighting fieet of forty-eight battleships. “Fighting” Bob made no attempt to conceal his regret in being compelled to relinquish command of his beloved fleet, which he had directed success- fully on the long cruise around the Horn. He referred with a touching pride to the ships and their crews of fighters, who, he said, were the best in the world and his eyes lit up with indignation when he spoke of the re- fusal of congress to provide for four more battleships.

Evansville, Ind., May 1 '.—All work In the mines in Indiana except in the block coal district has ceased in obe- dience with the action of the state sonvention of miners at Terre Haule.
