Toreka, Kan., Oct. 7.—In numbe and enthusiasm the mass convention of | democrats called to protest against the action of the regu vention of July 6 in j ple’s party st | pointment.

The democratic state central com- mittee convened yesterday afternoon and at midnight took a recess till o'clock this evening when it will com- plete its work. All but one of the sented, and in widition twenty-one democratic leaders from various parts of the state were present. The con- dition in the First congressional dis- trict was reported far from eneourag- ing and the committee devoted a large part of its time to a diseussion of the situation. A sub-committee. con- sisting of John Hannon, of Leaven- worth, A. G. Birchards, of Centralia, and J. B. Pierce, of Pottawatomie county, was finally appointed to confer with a similar committee appointed bj the populist state committee. These two committees are expected to meet with the congressional committees of the two parties and see if some amica- ble agreement can be arrived at.

DAHOMEYANS DEFEATED. Two Hundred Dead Left on the Field —Ger- mans Accused of Violating Neutrality. Parts, Oct. 7.—Col. Dodds, command- of the French forces operating inst King Behanzin, of Dahomey, telegraphed to the minister of m: rine an account of a battle between his command and the Dahomeyans in which the Dahomeyans were routed. Monday was entirely devoted to open- road through the forest surround- ing Gbede, the place where the engage- ment took place, and the French were thus enabled to execute a flank move- ment inst the natives and deploy their forces before the Dahomeyans were prepared to attack them. The er natives occupied a strong position and a desperate fight followed. A thick bush wood surrounded the and this afforded attacking forees. Dahomeyan position some protection to the The battle lasted for an hour, at the end of which time the Dahomeyans fled in disorder and were pursued by the French. The natives were, however, r with the country and found little difficulty in making their escape. During the fight five Europeans and three Singalese were killed and twenty- three Europeans and thirteen natives wounded. The enemy’s loss is un- known, but they left on the field 200 dead, including twenty of the famous amazons, all within ten yards of the French lines. Two hundred German repeating rifles were found on the field. This fact will add to the grievance France has against Germany, for the snch claim that King Behanzin, besides the 3,000 rifles allowed him by the treaty, has an all most equal number of Winchesters and other repeating rifles furnished by Ger- man traders.
