Pueblo, Sept. 5—Pandemonium
broke loose In the Populist state con-
vention almost as soon as It was oalied
to order at 9:15 today. The majority
report of the committee on credentials
favored the seating of the Waite dele-
gates from Denver and the Barela
delegates from Las Animas, indicating
that an understanding had been readi-
ed between Waite and Barela under
whloh the latter will have the nomina-
tion for state treasurer. The minority
report was Immediately tabled.
T. M. rat ter son then appeared on
the stage and the oonvention went
wild. There were cries of “put him
oat, he has no business here. We had
roml Tire* Still Beg log in Wlioonflo,
Mloneiotu and Manitoba,
rather hear H. 11 Eddy.”
rma
The ohalrman tried to get order and
insisted that Patterson should be al-
lowed to speak.
A motion was made that the major-
ity credential report be adopted and it
was carried amid the greatest tumult.
Patterson stood faoing the oonvention
with folded arms. Judge Pratt asked
that Patterson be allowed to speak five
minutes. Chairman Nicholson mean-
while pounded the table with a olub
and shouted at the top of his voioe.
Finally Patterson, in the most dulcet
tones, began:
“Mr. chairman and delegates of the
oonvention. When oalied to the Peo
Winnipeg, Man., Sep. 5—Minnesota
forest fires have spread to the Canadian
aide and are burning the entire count) y
along the Rain river. Mrs. Oamdley
and four children are reported burned
to death.
St. Paul, Sept. 5—Reports from the
north are to the effect that Oarieton
Creek and Barnum are in danger.
Fierce fires now surround these places
and so dense is the smoke that it is im-
possible to see aorosB the street. De-
tails are hard to get as the wires are
down.
Eleven people were burned to death
at Marengo, a few miles south of Ash-
land, Wis. They are: Frank Bergrom,

San Fbanoisoo, Sept. 5.—The govern-
ment of San Salvador has exhausted Its
stock of depositions and aetmB to have
oral testimony to offer in the extradi
tlon proceedings now pending in the
United States* district court here
Towney, William Townsy, Jessie Tow-
ney, Waiter Graft, and Graft’s four
pies* party just two years ago, I was
hissed out
uf the state oonvention of
Populists. Id the national convention
of the Demooratio party In Ohloago, I
offered an amendment in the platform
calling for and pledging it to the free
and unlimited coinage of silver. I was
then met with precisely the same op
position that meets ms now. I offered
my amendments and made my sugges-
tions in behalf of the people of my
state amid hisses and howls snob as
met no other delegate. There is noth-
ing that can be said in five minutes
that wonid make any impression npon
my hearers. I only arise now for the
purpose of entering a protest of the
minority against the overwhelming
tyrany that knows no laws and respeocs
no rights. I have said all that I desire
to say; I have entered my protest and
now as ever in my life I stand defend-
ing the rights of the minority.'*
Ed. Holden attempted to make a
speech, but the oonvention would not
bear him. The Pattersonites from
Denver then left the hall followed by
about a dozen delegates.
The roll call of counties was de-
manded on the gubernatorial nomina
Hon. All were solid for Waite with the
exoeption of Gilpin, whloh gave One
vote for Penoe, Morgan one, Rio
Grande four and Trontt two. The re-
sult was announced 438 for Waite and
8 for Penoe. It was then moved and
oarried that the governor’s nomination
be made unanimous.
A committee of ladies was appointed
to escort Governor Waite to the ball.
He was introdnoed by Miss Pboebe
Oousens and was greeted with tre-
mendous cheering.
Waite, after thanking the oonvention
for the honor, said: “I do not take
this as an endorsement of all my offi
oial acts, as 1 know I have made many
grievous mistakes, bnt I take it as an
expression of oonfldenoe in ms and
that I have aoted honestly, if not al-
children.
Duluth, Sept. 5—There are over
1,000 destitute ref ogees from the Hinok*
ley and Sandstone fires, now in Dnluth.
•ver 18,000 has been raised for relief
and food. Clothing and lumber is
being donated liberally. One of the
sad features is the large number of oat-
tle, horses, sheep aid hogs as well as
fowls that miraculously escaped the
flames and are now slowly dying from
hanger.
Ishpeming, Mich., Sept. 5—This oity
is again enveloped In smoke, fires In
the forest having started afresh. Dam-
age here is confined to crops and tim
here, as the fire is some distance from
settlements. Reports from lumber
towns west of here say all are safe yet,
bat the danger Is by no means over.
Hundreds of men are still fighting
the flames throughout the nppsr penin-
sula.
Pine Citv, Sept. 5—Arrangements
are being mads for a grand memorial
meeting In the park Sunday evening.
Hinokley and Mission Greek will be
rebuilt as soon as the more important
matter of relief is permanently assnr.

TJ
he governor’s remarks were re-
ceived with deafening cheers.
Things started with a rush at 8
o’clock tonight in great contrast with
the dilatory action of this afternoon,
when In three hoars nothing was done
exospt the selection of the state com
mittes and on# ballot for lieutenant-
governor, bnt matters soon resumed
tbelr slow going fashion. The seoond
ballot resulted in the selection of S
W. Harmon, of Denver, ex-president of
the trades assembly, who defeated Rev.
Myron W. Reed.
iy
Indications are now that it will be
nearly daylight before the nominations
are completed and the platform will
not be presented until then In the reg-
ular order of business. Harmon was
on the Waite slate whioh will probably
go through. The administration men,
many of whom are aooueedof belig
paid to attend, now have the oonven
tion well la hand, and the ohalrman
proposes to keep the body in session
until its work is accomplished.
For state treasurer, Oasimlro Barela,
of Trinidad; state superintendent of
pablto instruction, Miss Alice Oatlln,

The Chin*** Trooty.
Washington, Sept. 5—Before Seore
tary Gresham left for tbs west he had
a conference with the Chinese minister
oonosrnlng the Chinese treaty which
was ratified by tbs senate a short time
before its adjournment. Minister Yang
Yen told Secretary Gresham tbatow
and oarried baok to safety
oars were oarried through the midst of
the fornaos, over burning ties in the
faoe of the knowledge that another
train iu the opposite direction bad the
right of way and was liable to be met
anywhere in the dense smoke and fierce
flames and a terrible ride over the 130
foot bridge aoross the Kettle river,
whloh was blazing and trembling under
the Mhseis, apparently ready to fall.
Fifteen minutes after the train passed
the bridge went down. Then a crowd
of alleged men orowded into the oab
and begged Engineer Berry to uncou-
ple the train and carry them to safety,
leaving the people In the oars to perish.
They were thrown oat by the engineer
and the train finally hauled to place of
safety.
One of the most pathetic and heart
rending tales Is that of James Kelly
and Ernest Hogan. Kelly was fore-
man for O’Brien Bros, whose camps are
eight miles from Hinokley. When the
fire drew olose to the camps and they
oould fight it no longer they started to
walk to Sandstone, a distance of seven
miles. They trudged through tbs
blistering atmosphere picking each
other np when either fell. Finally
against General Ezeta and bis fellow
refugees. The depositions presented
so far hava not boon entirely satis
factory to the prosecution, In as much
as a great deal of testimony has been
etrioken out under the ruling of the
court that the American law relating
to the admissibility of evidenoe must
objeot to during the proceedings.
The first deposition relates to the
killing of Thomas Canas, a teamster
whom General Ezeta and Juan Oien-
faegos encountered daring their flight
to the sea. The seoond accuses Gen-
eral Oienfaegos and Mannel Oassan
with shooting at Andras Amaya, with
whom Oasson was at war. The third
deposition Is in oonneotion with the
forotble taking of 12,584 from the inter-
national bank of Salvador and Nicara-
gua by General Ezeta.
Then oame a long aoonsatlon charg-
ing the refugees with shooting Oeaaar
Alfaro and the hanging of Oaasimo
Henrignes, a revolutionist who had
opposed Ezeta’s cause. Other charges
of burning houses and shooting other
persons were brought oat. Bat very
soon after the oonvenlng of the court
this morning ooansel for the defense
announced that they had no farther
depositions at hand.
Dr. Oaldsron, the local consol for
San Salvador, was now sworn. He
testified to important documents in-
tended as evidenoe against the accused,
whioh had been dispatched to him and
would arrive on the next Bteamer from
Central America. Upon this' showing
the prosecution moved for a continu-
ance of the o»6e.
Judge Morrow ref need to grant a
oontinuanoe. Jadge Morrow finally
ruled that the province of the oonrt
was to consider the prisoners within
the jurisdiction and not to consider the
means by whloh they had gotten there.
In other words, the oonrt decided not
to go behind the returns of the United
States marshal.
Ezeta was oalied as a witness in his
own behalf. He denied the charges
that he caused Henrignes to be haDged
and said be did not know of his death
notll informed by his officers. Ezeta
added however, that he thought Hen-
rigueshad been well hanged beoanse be
was a rebel. He said that he killed
Thomas Ganans In self defense and
that the money taken from the bank
of Nloaragua was merely borrowed to
pay his soldiers.
General Ootohi was also examined,
bat there are no speoifio charges
against him. The case went over nntil
tomorrow.

He river Kelly became exhausted and
Hogan oouid not nrge him on. By
this time Hogan’s feet were so badly
blistered that he was compelled to take
to his hands and knees. Kelly In tbe
meantime had dragged himself to the
bead of tba ravine upon whioh he lost
Ids head and falling, rolled over and
over until* he struck the bottom of the
golly—dead. Hogan lay all Saturday
night in the ravine and Sunday morn-
ing started for Sandstone on his hands
and knees. Incredible as It may seem,
ha crawled six miles, reaching Sand
stone after having spent the entire
time since Saturday night on his way.
His hands and feet suffered and he
will bear the marks to bis grave.

or to open the ohuroh for school pur-
poses until they bad settled their
grievances and mada arrangements to
pay their debts. The case was con-
tinued to September 17.
