Corner Coen Cent, SAN ANTONIO, Tex,, Oct. 30.—News was received here today that at Michiocan, Mex.. on October 28, a bread riot occurred, in which twenty persons were wounded, many of them fatally. The cause of the riot Is sald to bave been the action of speculators in cornering the supply of corn. A corn famine has existed in that section for months and the govern- ment recently removed the import duty on the staple. It Js claimed that speculators cornered the shipraents to the section and raieed the price 100 per cent. The starviog people, driven to desperation, attacked the ware- hou women and children leading the as- eault. They were shot down by the guards. Those who escaped the bullets, appalled at ‘what bad happened, fled. The conditions in that section of the re- public south of the City of Mexico are de- ecribed as terrible.

Mr. Penrse Makes n Correction. OMAHA, Oct. 30.—-To the Editor of The Bee: Permit me to call your attention to an error appearing in your editorial col- umns last evening. You say: “‘It should not be forgotten that Mr. Pearse testified that the school book trust pald him $300 for a chapter on Nebraska in a school geography, ete.” You are mistaken as to what Mr. Pearse said. He did say that he wrote a geom- raphy of Nebraska for the American Book company and that for it he received $200. He thinks it was worth the pric: It was written when his time was his own and he might properly do it. If he had been pald for the time expended at the rate of com- pensation he received before coming to Omaha he would have got more for it than he did. I have nothing to conceal in the matter and am quite wiliing to be quoted as to anything 1 may have sald. I prefer, how- ever, to be quoted correctly. 1 regret that #0 serious a miestatement should be made at just this time. Some uncharitable per- sons might think there was a motive in It.
