TROUBLE PARIS, Oct. 20.—A serious riot ocourred today In froni of the Bourse de Travail| (labor exchange), In the workingmen's dis- trict, in which several policemen and & dozen rloters were seriously wounded and many others slightly injured. Numerous ar- Tests were made. The trouble followed a meeting of 6,000 persons who protested against the establishment of a municipal employment bureau. The authorities in anticipation of dis- orders, had occupled the nearby streets with a strong force of military and police. The first Wpeaker urged the crowd to await the result of the paritamentary Inquiry, which, it was predicted, would report a measure for the suppression of' the mu- nicipal employment bure Other speak- ers who followed made Inflammatory wpeeches, crying: “Down with the em- The crowd thereupon rushed from the bullding, and about 2,000 swept Into Rue du Chateau d'Eau, where a formidable barrier of police had been drawn up. A free fight followed, but the rioters gave ‘way, before a charge of the police. ‘The manifestants then entered cafes and rhopy, selzed glasses, tables and chairs and renewed the struggle with the police. ‘While the fighting was in progress, mem- bers of the Bourse de Travall stood at the windows encouraging the rioters and shout ing to the police: “Assassins, assassins.” In order to prevent further disturbance, it is reported that the minister of the In- terfor has forbidden holding the meetings which had been called for tonight at the Bourse de Travall, Later the rioting was renewed. The po- lice determined to clear out the Bourse de Travall, but the rioters barricaded the piace and threw projectiles from the win- dows, wounding a number of policemen. The militia later were compelled to use swords and a bloody conflict followed. Encouraged by the resistance of those In the building, the sympathizers outside attacked the police.

The rioters used dynamite in weveral Instances to blow in the doors of the Jesult houses and destroy the railroad tracks, with the object of preventing trajns from entering Blibao. Famine prices are already being charged for proyisions. Even tread fs so scarce that loaves are selling at 4 pesetos (about 8 cants) aplece. Six persons were killed and 100 injured during yesterday's conflicts. Hundreds of terror-stricken people have fled from the city. The raflroad employes now threaten to join teh strikers. Acting under orders from Madrid the governor of Bilbao has summoned mine owners to a conference. No newspapers appeared here today and ®ll telegrams are closely censured. Gen- eral Zappino marched into Bilbao today ‘with an infantry regiment, two squadrons of cavalry and a battery of artillery. Btrike riots are reported to have occurred In neighboring villages. At Aenas the troops were obliged to fire on the strikers, BSoveral men were killed or wounded, in- elu soldiers. The strikers are threatening to attack the Galdacano dynamite factory. A large force has been ment to protect the works, Cablnet Comsiders Riot. _ MADRID, Oct. 2.—The Spanish cabinet met twice today to consider the rioting at Ibao, where the situation seems to be mproving._ The ministers were unanimous on the quéstion of sending large reinforce- ments of troops to Bilbao. General Zap- pino has taken the direction of affairs there and telephonic communication with the disturbed city has been restored.

BIG DEMAND FOR BUFFALOES Chinese Officials Fear Wholesale Pur- chases for Phil May Cause Famine. PEKING, Oct. 20.—The Chinese forelgn of- fice is alarmed at the project of the Philip- pine government to purchase 30,000 buffaloes in South China, to replace those which bave died of the pest. United States Minister Conger has asked the authorities to remit the export duty on the buffaloes, because the project is char- itable, but Lien Fang, secretary of the forelgn ofice, replies that he doubts whether there were 30,000 buffaloes in China, and sald he feared the Chinese furmors would sell all they had if they were offered a good price, with the result that there would be a famine, owing to lack of animals to cultivate the land. The Chinese officlals, however, probably will accede to Mr, Conger's request. STEAMER SINKS "IN HARBOR Japanese Vessels Collide and Fifty- Four Passengers Are Drowned.

The rumors emanating from Japanese sources relative to the erection of Russian forts on the Yalu river, Corea, are de- clared to be exaggerated. It is explained that only a rampart has been built for the protection of the Russian settlements against the Chunchus. The reports of the entry of Japanese troops Into Corea are also unconfirmed and the anti-Russian demonstrations in Japan are now stated to be less frequent PARIS, Oct. 2—Count Cassinl, the Rus- slan ambassador to the United States, now in Parls, was not surprised to hear that the Russian troops had re-entered Mukden, in view of the conditions there. He sald that the experience of the Russian author- ities was that as soon as they surrénder a district to the Chinese the latter are un- able to preserve order; disturbances occur and foreign Interests are menaced. The ambassador added that the return of the | Russian troops did not affect the status of Mukden as an open port, in accordance with the treaty between the United States and China. d WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.—Diplomats” here sdy that the Associated Press cable from 8t. Petersburg, telling of Russian reoccu- pation of Mukden” indicates an agreement between Russia and Japan by which the former is to have free swing in Man- churin, wo far as Japan s concerned. European diplomats say that the reports of a tripartite understanding between Rus- sla, Germany and Japan for the manage- ment of affairs in the far east are of far reaching significance, but It Is declared no officlal news have been received by them on the subject. 8T. PETERSBURG, Oct. 20.-The rob- ber Chunchu tribesmen who recently en- trenched themselves at Bodone, a town on the Sungacha river, Manchuria, had pre- viously attacked a Russlan cargo steamer at a station on the Manchurian raiiroad near Bodina. They killed the crew and at- tacked the rallroad guards, Killing forty- five. Further reinforcements have been ordered from Harbin to Bodine to dis- lodge the Chunchus. YOKOHAMA, Oct. 20.—The political situ- ation has been easier since the first con- ference between Baron De Rosen, the Rus. slan minister, and Former Minister Ko- mura. q GOOD WILL OF THE CZA It ds Expressed in Letter Borme by { Lamsdorft to Pr. dent Loubet. PARIS, Oct. 2.—The Russian foreign minister, Count Lamsdorff, and M. Del- casse, the minister of forelgn affairs of France, went together to Versailles this morning and spent most of the day there in conference. They returned here late in the afternpon and-attended tlia grand @inner at the Elysce palace, given in honor of the Russian statesman. Although the general impression continues that Count Lamsdorff's visit relates to af- fairs in the east and far east, the Asso- ated Press has reason to know that the autograph letter of the czar which Count Lamsdorft presented to President Loubet specifically discloses that one of the chief causés of the visit Is the purpose to express the gratification of the czar at the recent course of France in extending the interna- tional peace. While it is mpossible to give the letter textually, its essential features follow: The letter is written in the warmest and most fraternal spirit. The czar refers to the continuance of the strong bonds be- tween France and Russia which operate toward the maintenance of general peace and expresses satisfaction at the fact that France, In pursuance of the same senti- ment, has strengthened international ties by the Anglo-French and Franco-Italian ententes. The letter expresses gratification at Count Lemsdorft's visit to President Loubet at such an auspiclous time and expresses the hope that it will fesult in an extension of international good will. The foregoing are the substantial features of the letter and they will serve to put an end to a number of pessimistic reports cur- rent lately. One of these, from certain German quarters, indicated that the “weak- ening of the bonds between Russia and France” would result in strengthening the bonds between Russta and Germany, but the csar's letter takes occasion to refer to the continuance of the strong bonds unit- ing Russia and France Another current adverse report was that the Anglo-French arbitration treaty was indirectly distasteful to Ru: The czar's letter, however, gives great weight to his personal approval of the beneficent nature of the Anglo-French ententa TAFT MAY BUY FRIAR LAND Effort is He Made to Matter Before Governor's Departure. to Settle MANILA, Oct. 2.—Monsignor Guidi, the Roman prelate sent to Manila as apostolic delegate to conduct negotiations between the Vatican and the United States govern- ment regarding the sale of land held by the friars, is urging a settlement of the matter before Governor Taft leaves for America. The governor says he hopes the negotia- dons will be concluded before his depar- ture, from the fact that the friars have reduced their price considerably. Seventeen provincial boards have en- dorsed Executive Secretary Arthur Fer- guson for the vacancy upon the board of Philippine commissioners which will be created by the approaching retirement of Governor W. H. Taft, who will shortly leave the island and return to the United States. Lieutenant James W. Walsh, constabu- lary supply officer, stationed at Masbate, in the proviace of Viscayas, military de- partment of Luzon, convioted recently of embeszlement of $1,000 of government funds, has been sentenced to ten years' imprison- ment. Faustino Millerlo, leader of the band of ladrones which for months past has been raiding the province of Rizal, has been sentenced to death. Two of his officers have been sentenced to Imprisonment for life and two others to imprisonment for twenty-five years. ’ Convicts Go to Sea.

SINGLE ( INDICT FORMER NEBRASKAN Obarged with Forgery in Attempt to Secure Land in Oregon. MAY REVEAL FAR MORE SERIOUS CRIM! Norman Willlams and Alma Nesbett Left Omaha Together for the Pa- cific Coant and Later Woman Disappeared. PORTLAND, Ore,, Oct. 20.—~The federal grand jury today returned an indictment in the United States district court that brings to light for the first time the detalls of what was probably a double murder. The indictment is against Norman Williams on a charge of forgery in afxing a false sig- nature of Miss Anna Nesbett to a relin- quishment for a homestead claim in Wasco county, but under the entire precedure lles strong circumstantial evidence that murder followed the forgery to cover up detection of the crime. The matter was brought be- fore the grand jury by United States In- spector A. R. Green of the Interior de- partment. Years ago Norman Willlams and Miss Alma Nesbett were friends in Omaha, Neb., and came west together. They took up ad- jolning homesteads in Wasco county and lived there about a year. Then Mrs. Nes- bett, mother of Alma Nesbett, came west. In March, %0, Willlams met Mrs. Nesbett and daughter at Hood River and started to drive them to thelr homestead, some twenty miles distant. After leaving Hood River the women were never seen again, and the officials believe that they were murdered. The case attracted much at- tention at the time and their disappearance has ever since remained a deep mystery. The federal authorities have been looking for Willlams for some time. 1t is supposed that he is somewhere on Canadian soil. The federal grand jury also returned in- dictments against Emma L. Watson and Guy Huft for conspiracy and forgery in connection with land frauds in this state. Secretary is Notifi WASHINGTON, Oct. ¥.—Secretary Hitchcock today recelved a telegram from Portland, Ore., announcing the indictment of three more pérsons in connection with the public land frauds in that state. The telegram gave the names of the per- sons indicted as Emma L. Watson, Guy Huff and Norman Willlams. The woman is charged with conspiracy in connection with the proceedings against Miss Ware, thie commissioner of the United States dis- trict court for Oregon, who aiready is un- der indictment, and Willlams is charged with forgery in connection with the Nesbitt cage. The proceeding against Huff is for forgery, but his is an independent case. Upon being asked if he had anything to say apropos of the indictments, Secretary Hitchcock replied: es roll within a week and there will still be many more. Our success to the present time in- dicates pretty clearly, 1 think, that our in- vestigations have quite thoroughly conducted. So far most of the prosecutions have been directed against those engaged in fraudu- Jent proceedings under the timber and stone act, and it now appears that many flagrant irregularities hive been discov- ered in that connection. Innumerable in- stances of the invasion of public land re- glons by people in large companies have been reported:to the department from day to day for the last year and more. Many Women Involved. In many Instarces people have gome to the Pacific coast states from the states farther east to enter lands under the timber and stone law. The arrival of carloads at a time have been reported and many of the members of these parties were women. In one or two cases during the vacation period of last summer entire carloads of female school ichers halling from the middle western states made tours to the coast and all entered lands. In other in- stances entire families of four or five persons each have come in from the out- side and have made entry of lands. o far as known no evidence of fraud hds been discovered In these wpecific cases, but the officials of the department contend that in view of the fact that over $400 is required to complete the acquisition of title under the timber and stone law, some of these entries are at least suspiclous. In other cases entries have been made in the names of purely fictitious persons. The connivance of officlals 1is necessary In proceedings of this character and this line of cases lend themselves most easlly to discovery and prosecution. It also appears that funds extend east ward from the coast states into Idaho, Montana and Nevada. GREAT WESTERN TO REACH OUT Report That Line Will Be Extended West from Omaha to Denver. CHICAGO, Oct. 2.—(Special Telegram.)— It is the intention of President Stickney of the Chicago Great Western railway to extend his line from Omaha to Denver next year. When the road opened its line from Fort Dodge to Omaha It was stated that the road would not extend its line further west, but would endeavor to make Omaha ene of the grain centers of the country. The other lines, however, have been adverse to giving up the long haul from the point of origin to Chicago, and have been placing obstacles In the path of Mr. Stickney's ambitious scheme. For this reason, 1t is claimed, he has decided that so long s he has to depend upon the Union Pacific, Burlington and other lines for an outlet west from Omaha his plans cannot be fully realized.

The Silver How Trades and Labor assembly will tonight name a committee to wait on the gov- ernor and ask for a speclal session of the legislature. This request will be backed by the Influence of the unions of Mon- tana and by the Western Federation of | Miners. C. F. Keller, counsel for the Amalgamated Coppet company, today gave out the following statement: Our_attention has been directed to the fact that private news bureaus and spe- clal correspondents have circulated muny false and misleading statements regarding the ciuse of the shutdow ties, and the situatioh hers these dispatches alloge that retallation on our part because of the Minnie Healy de- cislon moved us to shut down; another, that the shutdown is a stock jobbing scheme. Both are efraneous. The shutdown is the Inevitable result of the actions of certailh courts, which have an unbroken record for six ‘and one-half years of deciding ddversely every question concerning our interests in Montana. A decision was rendered on Thursday, Opto- ber 22, whereby a previously issued re- straining order, prohibiting the transfer of the stock of the Boston & Monta company to the Amalgamated, and pro- hibiting_ the payment of dividends on Hos- ton & Montana stock was made an in- Jjunction. This deecision declared our ope- ration of the Boston & Montana illegal. Inasmuch a8 our ownership of the Ana- conda and other properties is on precisely the same footing as.our ownership of the Boston & Montana, and subject to the same interpretation of law, it became fm- possible for, us longgr to operate in viola. tion of what the district court has declared to be the law. Thefefore, there was noth- ing for us to do but cease operations until such a time as the whole question can be adjudicated by the court of final resort. Two appeals to the supreme court in the Injunction suits against the Boston & Montana company have been perfected In record breaking time. The in- junction orders were made by Judge Clancy last Friday, and today, by stipulation of the attorneys on both sides, the two big records, each conslsting of nearly 400 pages of typewrittsn matter, were settled. The transcripts, consisting of the evidence and depositions in the case, were submitted to Judge Clancy at his residence tonight, and the transcripts were approved and signed. The formal notice of appeal by the Bos- ton & Montana company, and the bond of appeal in the sum of $300, were filed in the district court today. The transcript and, briefs In each of the three cases will be almost the same, and the judgment of the supreme court in any one of the cases will govern In all three of them. FIND DEATH FROM POISON Corone Jury Returns Verdict In Case of James Owen Brown, N PITTSBURG, Oct. 20.—The verdict of the coroner’s jury on the death of the late city recorder, James Owen Brown, was reached this evening after feurteen sittings. The jury found that Brown came to Mis death suddenly his residence on Sunday, March 15, 1%, from polson ad- ministered by some unknown person or persons. The death of Recorder Brown occurred a few days after his resignation as city recorder at the close of a year's bitter factional ‘fighting in local politics. There were vague rumors of suicide, but death was generally attributed to collapse from overwork and mental stress. The suicide rumors resulted in an investigation by J. R. P. Brown of Nebraska, who came to in- vestigate, and on April 15 had the body | Monsignore Machett! said exhumed from Its resting place in Bull Creek cemetery near Tarentum, Pa., the boyhood home of the recorder, and a post mortem examination held. A thorough investigation was then begun and the vital organs were sent to Phila~ delphia for analysis. In June the inquest proper was taken up and has continued at intervals ever since. In all there were thirteen sessions, not counting the view- ing of the body, For the past two months nothing has been done owing to the lllness of Colonel T. C. Campbell of Louisville, who had been retained by J. R. P. Brown to look after his interests in the case. The former re- corder left an estate of considerable value, which his wife, from whom he had been séparated, several nephews and some close friends were made beneficiaries by his will. The verdict of the coroner’s jury leaves the case about where it has been ajl along beyond the fact that he did not dle from natural causes or commit suicide. J. R.-P, Brown, who has conducted the Investiga- tion, proposes to remain here and investi- gate further. TRUNK LINES ARE Movement of Merel of BUSY dise by Way w York is Very Heavy, NEW YORK, Oct. 20.—Movement of mer- chandise by way of this city continues so large that the leading trunk lines have issued urgent calls, says the Times, for the speedy return of cars from the west. In some instances, also, the reduction of train- working forces, which was arranged for November 1, in accordance with the usual fall custom, has been deferred indefinitely. Shipments of general merchandise and machinery to the west have thus far shown no signs of abatement. There is no such congestion of traffic as that which occurred last year, however, because the east- bound movement is lighter, ARREST AGENT -OF RAILROAD He is Accused of Dischargin, ploye for Attending Military Maneuve EMPORIA, Kan, Oct. %A warrant ‘was lssued tonight for the arrest of W.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.—(Special Tele- gram.)—The attention of Monsignore Ma- chettl, auditor of the papal legation, was called to a special dispatch in The Bee from Lincoln, Neb, to the effect that a telegram had been received there purport- ing to have come from Rome stating that the propoganda is flooded with accusations and protests against Bishop Bonacum, dealing principally with Father Murphy's claim to church property In Seward. The telegram stated, it is sald, that Cardinal Gotti, prefect of the propoganda, expected to bring the cont-oversy before the con- gregation when it mieets In November. to The Dee representative this morning that the le- gation had no information whatever the subject; that the questions involVed were in no manner before the legation. He was rather inclined to discredit the in- formation contained in the telegram re- ferred to, but was without any informa- tion on the subject. The entire question of Father Murphy's tenure was a subject which had been decided by Monsignore Satolll during his incumbency In America as papal delegate and since the coming of Monsignore Falconi the matter has never been brought to the attention of the church authorities here. Name Camp Stotsenburg. Many friends of the late John Miller Stotsenburg, Sixth cavalry, who was Kkilled while serving as colonel of the First Ne- braska volunteers in the Philippines, will be gratified to learn that one of the largest and most recently established posts in the Philippine islands has been named in his honor. Camp Stotsenburg is situated at Angeles, on the Dagupan railroad, about sixty miles from the city of Manila.

Carter, “But we are making a determined effort to enforce it and 1f they don't feel that they can nn-' and hunt within the limit of the law we wiil see that they do.” Warden Carter has been in the clty all week, having been called here from Lin- coln lagt Monday, when he placed under arrest Thomas Smith of Elgin and con- fiscated forty-six chickens and three ducks. The game in this case was taken“for not betng properly invotced and for not being accompanied by the owner, which Is re- quired by law. Smith pleaded gullty be- fore Justice Foster and was fined $35 and costs, which he paid. Mr. Carter was just preparing to start for his home In Lincoln, when he accl- dentally stumbled upon J. ¥. Brady of Aty Kkinson, who, when searched, had in Mz possession elghty-nine birds. This over- reaches the law, which allows each Bunter the ‘privilege to carry fifty birds, and Mr. Brady was taken into custody and ar- radgned before Justice Foster, making w plea’ of not guilty. The case was not heard, but was set for argument on November 3, when, Mr. Carter says, “the offender will be punished to the full extent of the taw." “The next case in Mr. Carter's hands was that of J. W. Robinson of Chambers, Holt county, who, it was learned, had shipped into the city, under false invoice, two trunks and four telescopes, containing 254 birds. Robinson, before fhe train had reached the city, learned of the fact that Carter was In waiting at the depot, so he eluded the officer by leaving the train and placing the checks in the hands of the ex- press messenger. Deputy Carter waited until the goods were given to the wagon for dellvery, then he placed the whole outfit under arrest. Fifty birds were con- fiscated from each C. H. Markley of Elgin, Jack McParkley of Tlgin and A. C. John- ston, but these being captured out of the courty, the warden Zelt it not in his power to prosecute, so they were turned over to the state authorities. Mr. Carter is being assisted in this work by D. H. Plersorff” secretary of the State Detective assoclation, and it Is thelr object to hunt down every violator of the law and prosecute them under the penalties. COURT-MARTIAL IN SESSION Colorado Court Taking Testimony in Case Against Gemeral Chase at Demver. DENVER, Oot. 2.~Court-martial pro- ceedings in the case of Brigadier General John Chase, commander of the National Guard of Colorado, charged with perjury, disobedience and insubordination, were re. sumed today. Colonel Verdeckburg, who was tempor: ily In command at Camp Goldfield when the executive order was issued by Adju- tant Generdl Sherman M. Bell (subse- quently countermahded by General Chase) for the release of a striker from the mili- tary prison, after repeated questioning by Willls V.
