THE CHIEF OF POLICE KILLED.
Intense Excitement and Business at a
Standstill—Seven Citizens and Eight
Yaquis Killed-
No cai.es, Ariz.., Aug 13.—
About four o clock yesterday
morning citizens of Nogales on
both sides of the international
line were aroused from sleep by
a fusilade of shots. Rushing to
ascertain the cause they found
75 Yaqui and Temochic Indians
had attacked Nogales, Sonora,
for the puipose of securing arms
and money to aid in the over-
throw of the Mexican govern-
ment in the interest of Santa
Teresa de Cabora. As a result
of the attack seven Indians are
dead, two badly wounded, who
will die, and "one is psisoner.
Two celadores, Mexican custom
guards, Francisco Fernandez
and Manuel Delanty, are dead.
Another, Jose Pefia, mortally
wounded and Cresencio Urbina,
keeper of a little fruit stand,
is dead. Intense excitement pre-
vails on both sides of the line and
business is almost at a standstill.
The dead guards were highly re-
spected, brave, efficient officers.
Seven dead bandits are lying in
the jail yard. A posse has been
organized to follow the escaping
revolutionists. A courier has
returned hastily from the moun-
tains, bringing word of an en-
counter in the hills with the
Indians. l’onciano Sanchez,
chief of police of Nogales, Sono-
ra, Juan Fernandez, whose
brother was killed yesterday, and
two others, Mexican guards, were
killed, making seven citizens and
8 Yaquis so far dead.

BRYAN S SPEECH.
Passenger Train Wrecked.
Otis, Ind., Aug. 13.—A bad
wreck occurred on the Lake
Shore road at four o’clock this
morning, east of this point. The
eastbound special mail train from
Chicago, consisting of one engine
two postol cars,one baggage car,
one day coach and one Wagner
sleeper ran into washouts 70 feet
long and 30 feet deep. The en-
tire train except the day coach
and day sleeper plunged into the
big hole- Engineer James Griff-
in and Fireman Michael Roche
were almost instantly killed. The
day coach partly toppled over
into the abyss but none of the
passengers were injured.
How It Was Received In The Lon-
don Stock Exchange.
London, Aug. 13.—The West-
minster Gazette this afternoon
says “Bryan’s speech will certain-
ly not increase confidence in the
minds of investers. It is replete
with financial heresies and will
cause investors everywhere to de-
sire to withdraw their money
from the United States while
they are able to obtain gold in
payment for debts. Should the
free silver party be elected gold
will undoubtedly be driven out of
circulation and a substantial pre-
mium would at once be demand-
ed by those possessing it.
*‘We do not believe individual
Americans will take advantage
of the political dishonesty pre-
posed by the democratic conven-
tion whereby even existing con-
tracts calling for payment of
gold will not be valid when free
coinage is carried. It is how-
ever certain that railroads owing
large amounts of gold debts
would with a premium on gold
be unable to meet obligations
temporarily at any rate and
would be forced to pay some of
their debts in currency or become
bankrupt.
“The fear of such contingency
renders it extremely difficult to
sell any but the highest class of
American railway bonds at the
present time. It is hoped that
eastern electors appreciate the
danger ahead, and will support
the candidates pledged to main-
tain the gold standard, otherwise
we are likely to witness a crisis
of unequalled severity. On stock
exchange the Americans opened
weak, owing to the strong disap-
proval of the speech.
PLEASED WITH HIS RECEPTION.
Did Not Expect to Set the North
River On Fire.
New York, Aug. 13.—If Mr.
Bryan had any doubt of the suc-
cess of his speech last night he
did not show it this morning.
The adverse tone of most of the
articles did not seem to worry
him in the least. He was espe-
cially gratified at the fact that
all the newspapers printed his
speech.
Asked his opinion of various
criticisms, he said with a smile:
“I did not expect to overcome all
prejudice at one blow. Neither
did I expect to set the North
river on fire with oratory; it was
not a time for oratory, but for
serious argument and discussion.
I am pleased with my reception.”
At 11 o’clock Mr. and Mrs.
Bryan drove to the Windsor Hotel.
A vast crowd filled fifth Avenue
in the front of the Hotel. The
police finally succeeded in form-
ing a line, and people were slowly
admitted Mr. Mrs. Bryan and Mr.
Sewall, stood in the parlors, the
lady between the two men.
It was estimated that 300 peo-
ple shook hands with Bryan
within an hour and a half. Up
to 3 o’clock Bryan had not ar-
ranged his future plans but it is
believed he will leave for Maine
to-morrow. At four o’clock this
afternoon Mrs. Bryan,Bland and
Stone received the women of New
York in the Windsor hotel par-
lors.
Terrible Riot.
Bryan Feels Better.
New Yokk, Aug. 13.—Bryan,
Mrs. Bryan and Arthur Sewall
received visitors this forenoon at
William P. St. John’s residence.
Bryan looked exceptionally well
after the fatiguing work last
night and said he felt better than
yesterday. The candidates and
Mrs. Bryan chatted with visitors
until shortly before 11 o’clock,
when the start was made for
Windsor Hotel, where a public
reception is to be held.
Death's Record.
New Yoke, Aug. 13.—The
heated term of New York and
vicinity, has not come to a close
but its violence has subsided ap-
preciably. At 12 o’clock this
morning the thermometer regis-
tered 82. A breeze was blowing
from the north east. In the
streets the temperature was any-
where from 84 to 86 Humidity
was 65 per cent. The records at
the police headquarters showed
ten deaths from heat between

Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 13.
—According to the reports of the
weather bureau,Philadelphia suf-
ers thejunenviable distinction to-
day of being the hottest city in the
United States. At 8 a.tn. the ther-
mometer registered 82 degrees,
at noon 95. a light breeze temp-
ered the air slightly, but the suf-
fering was as great as any day
since the torrid spell began. Be-
tween 2 and 11 a. m. five deaths
due to heat had been reported.
Belleville, 111., Aug. 13.—
The violent demonstrations by
the turbulent elements of Belle-
ville against the salvation army,
which have occurred at frequent
intervals in the public square for
a year, culminated last night in a
riot. That there were no serious
casualties is a matter of great
wonder. For over two hours the
mob surged around the little band
of Christians, cursing, pushing,
striking and creating a perfect
bedlam of discordant noises.
Hans Schwarts, editor of a Ger-
man anarchist paper, assumed
the leadership of the crowd.
Rush after rush was made and
the Salvationists, men and women
alike, were thrown with terrific
force down the steps. Finally
the police stopped the melee by
driving the Salvationists to their
hall.

The fuller returns from Ala-
bama indicate that the demo-
cratic party of that state has
practically got back this year
to the strength and standing it
enjoyed when there were only
the two parties, democratic and
republican, in Alabama—in
1888.
In the presidential year just
mentioned with the fight a
square out struggle between the
democracy and republicanism,
practically a fight between the
whites and blacks,' the democrat-
ic majority was something over
60,000. Before 1892 some 50,-
000 white men went off into pop-
ulism and the democratic major-
ity fell from 60,000 in 1888 to
11.000 in "the state election in
1892. This year the majority
for the democratic state ticket
leaps back to between 40,000 and
50.000 showing unmistakably the
rapid disintegration of the pop-
ulist party in Alabama and ap
proaching within 20,000 votes of
the old divisional line between
the whites and blacks.
It is an object lesson that must
give encouragement to the entire
southern democracy. The figures
tell such a plain tale and indicate
so clearly that the cause for dis-
satisfaction with democracy
among southern white men has
largely been eliminated from
future struggles, by the action at
Chicago. It is more than proba-
ble that we shall hear no more
after this year’s elections of the
mongrel tickets and hybrid move-
ments looking to the overthrow
of the democratic party in the
south and the endangerment
of white supremacy. The
south has cause to rejoice,
every white man in the south has
reason to rejoice—the south will
be solid, serene and prosperous
again. What has been seen in
Alabama will be seen in all the
other southern states—for Ala-
bama is representative.
And it is this white man’s gov-
ernment in the South, this solidi-
ty of the democracy again, as
foreshadowed by the Alabama
returns, that causes the Galves-
ton News to exclaim: “Poor old
Alabama!”
