At 10 o'clock the mob began for the third time to attack the clt{lprlson. Some one in the crowd began shooting at the building. This was_followed by several more shots. The officers in the buildin, appeared at the windows and then sho over the heads of the mob. A man with a shotgun then fired at the officers. It is said that several officers were wounded. The crowd then began to smash in the windows of the city building and the firing became general. shots were exchanged and one boy was carried dead from the street. It is cer- tain that dozens of men were wounded. A report has been received from the C"K bullding that one of the officers had botl legs broken and that another was badly wounded. Mayor Young is yet in the building and is directing a call for the militia. All the ambulances of the city have been called out, and the excitement has become intense. The front of the city building is a total wreck and the fire bells are ringing. At 10:45 p. m,, Prison-keeper Johr E. Washer came from the city bullding and was knocked down by a brick.

MURPHY TO DIRECT THE CAMPAIGN IN NEW YORK NEW YORK, Aug. 22.—Former United States Senator Edward Murphy came to this city to-day and met Richard Croker at the Hoffman House. At the close of the conference it was announced that Mr. Murphy will remain here until after the election. Mr. Murphy said he expects to co-operate with the State committee for the election of Bryan. Mr. Croker gave out a statement to the effect that he recog- nized Murflhy as the actual Democratic leader of the State. It has been said that in several days Murphy intends to open State headquarters independent of the Democratic State Committee. Ex-Senator Murphy made a statement to-night in the course of which he said: "\"{J to the present time there has been absolutely no work done to perfect the harmony that must exist in the Demo- cratic party in New York State to insura success at the ensuing election. A gentle- man, who four years ago left our party, is to-day on a tour of the Western part of the State Blnntlng the seeds of discon- tent among Democrats. For the purpose of frustrating the schemes of this gentle- man and his associates, all loyal mo- crats should band together. It is claimed that Richard Croker is seeking the State leadership. This Is absolutely false.” BRYAN ADDRESSES MANY AUDIENCES Democratic Presidential Nominee Stops at Various Cities on Route to Topeka.
