John J. Ingalls, who died this morning
at the Montezuma Hotel, Las Vegas Hot
Springs, nere started for Atchison, Kan.,

panied by Mrs. Ingalls and her youngest
eon, Sheffield. The body will arrive in
Atchison Friday afternoon, and the fu
neral will be held from the old home
stead Sunday afternoon.
In accordance with a special request of
Senator Ingalls. every feature of the fu.
neral will be simple. The body will be
taken from the Ingalls residence to Trin
ity Church, Sunday afternoon, where the
Episcopal sen-Ice. will be read by Bishop
aiillspagh. The interment at Mount Ver
non will be private. No funeral sermon
will be preached, and there will be noth
ing in the nature of a public demonstra
tion. The direct cause of death was bronchitis.
Senator Ingalls had been growing w eaker
tar some time from inability to assimilate,
his food, and there were also heart coiu.
plications. He had been able to sit up
last evening, however, and his condition
was then considered slightly better. He
had made all plans to leave for Atchison,
where he had expressed a wish to die.
and it was intended to start not later than
Saturday next.
Of the Senator's last hours, Sheffield
Ingalls said today:
"Father -was taken suddenly worse a
little after $ o'clock last eening. The
medical director of the hotel Informed
us that my father was not likely to live
until morning. I left his side at mid
night and retired to my room for a short
rest. My mother, whom he desired no:
to leave his Mde, came to my door about
2 o'clock this morning and told me that
the end was near. Soon after he lost
consciousness and passed peacefully
away. He talked to us up to half an
hour before he died, and repeated the
Lord's Prayer with my mother some time
before he lost consciousness. His con
duct all through his Illness has been one
of great fortitude. He was anxious for
the end to come, as he had felt for the
last six months that his life work and
career of usefulness was over."
THE POWERS TRIAL,
The Day
Given Up to
of Counsel.
Arguments
GEORGETOWN. Ky., Aug. 16 In the
Caleb Powers trial today, arguments of
counsel were continued. Colonel W. C
Owens, for the defense, made a brilliant
address tonight. Much Interest Is being
taken in the argument of Colonel Thomas
Campbell for the prosecution tomorrow
forenoon, and in the argument of ex
Governor Brown, for the defense, tomor
row, while Commonwealth's Attorney
Franklin will deliver a strong argument
in closing the case tomorrow night.
Victor Bradley, who continued his
speech for the prosecution today, likened
the armed petitioners who went to Frank
fort to a highwayman who draws his re
volver and "petitions" the traveler for
his purse, and he told the jury that it
had been proved that Charles Flnley had
said "Goebel will be killed within five
days," and In les than that time Goebel
was lying quivering on the pavement.
He claimed that It had been proved that
Caleb Powers had said: "If no one else
will kill him. I will kill him myself; that
Henry Youtsey said Goebel could be
killed from Powers' office, and the assas
Bln could run down into the basement
and never be discovered. A few sec
onds after the shooting it is proved that
Youtsey did run down Into the bare
ment, out through the barber shop, and
through the eastern1 entrance Into the
office next to Powers'.
When Bradlej had concluded, G. H.
Tinsley. of Barbourville. began for the
defense. He said that one fact stood out
above everj other In this case, and that
was that Powers was not within 50 milei
of Frankfort when Goebel was shot, had
locked his office before he left, and no
one was locked in It; that he could not
possibly have known who fired the shot,
or where it was fired from.
Henry Youtsey. the alleged conspirator,
whose case will b tried next. Is quite ill
In jail here. He may be too sick to go
on trial.

RIOTING IN NEW YORK
RACE "WAR CARRIED OX WITH A
HIGH HAND.
3Iany Persons Injured and n Large
Number of Arrests Made Plenty
of Worlc tor the Police.
NEW YORK, Aug. 16. Such a furious
ebullition of race hatred as found Vent
in the rioting that occurred here last
night, the outgrowth of a jnurder a few
days ago of PolIcemanThorpe by a ne
gro named Arthur Harris, has been not
equaled In New York In many years.
As a result of the disturbance, which
raged from midnight until 3 o'clock, and
burst out in a flame of passion and vio
lence at intervals until daybreak, there
were about 50 persons Injured by pistol
balls, razors or knives, rocks and clubs.
Of these, one negro, Lloyd Lee, may not
REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR
J. M. FRINK, OF, SEATTLE.
J. il. Frink, of Seattle, who was nominated for Governor by the Republicans of Wash
ington Wednesday, was born in Lucerne County, Pennsylvania, in 1845 After living: some
j ears In Madison County, Ne' York, where he attended school, he moved with his parents
to Kansas In 1858, and there spent 10 jears working: on a form and teaching school in
Winter. He attended Washburn College, at Topeka, one jear, and was a member of the
school board In 1870 he removed to Allen County, Kansas In 1870 he went to Seattle, and
for four years there and at Port Gamble taught school. In 1S81 he assisted in establishing
the Iron works of Tenny & Frink, which hoe expanded, to the Important concern now known
as the "Washlnsrton Iron Works, of which he- is president and manager. Air. Frink was a
member of the School Board five years, of the City Council two years, and of the State
Senate four years-
recover and Policeman Kennedy Is also
seriously Injured. Lee Is alleged to have
made threats against the life of Kennedy
because he was the particular friend and
associate of Thorpe, the murdered officer.
Thorpe was the third white man murder
ously assaulted In the vicinity by negroes,
a race prejudice having been engendered.
In less than an hour from the time the
trouble began last night, the whole of
the west side, from Twenty-eighth street
to Longacre Square, above Forty-second
street, Including Eighth and Ninth ave
nues, was in an uproar. Forty or more
arrests were made. During the riot it Is
estimated that 500 poUce were on duty,
and ambulances from every hospital on
the west side were kept busy. A police
estimate , of the result puts the number
of wounded at 50, the number of arrests.
A Hand-to-Hnnd Fight.
The most determined and desperate
hand-to-hand fight which occurred during
the riot was that between Detectlye John
Kennedy and the negro Lloyd Lee. Lee
acted like a madman when Kennedy or
dered him to move on. Refusing to do
so, he said to Kennedy: "I know you.
You are Thorpe's partner. I have been
laying for you." And at the same time
he slashed Kennedy in the shoulder, in
flicting a deep wound. Kennedy pulled
his revolver and fired four shots
One bullet went through Lee's jaw.
Policemen were Tunning from dif
ferent sections and went in search of
Lee. In the search another negro, David
H. Carr, got a terrible beating, and when
he was taken to Bellevue It was found
that he had a fractured skull, a fractured
arm and a battered face. Kennedy was
taken to the New York Hospital. Later
he was taken to Bellevue, when he Iden
tified Lee as his assailant. When he
saw Kennedy he shouted:
"I am up and about and you are down,
damn you; I guess you're down for good.
I hope so."
Captain Cooley and Kennedy say that
Lee threatened several days ago to "do"
Kennedy because the latter was Thorpe's
partner.
While Kennedy and Lee were in the
street struggling, word was sent to Cap
tain Cooley that Kennedy had been killed.
This intensified the excitement among the
reserves, who rushed from the station
and charged down the street. In doing
bo they encountered mobs of whites at
.various points. In making ait, Indiscrimi
nate charge upon the mob, a negro was
discovered. He started to run and the
mob and the reserves, close behind, gave
chase. The negro ran Into the Marl
borough Hotel and escaped through the
office Into Broadway, and this added to
the excitement. Groups had gathered
at various points along Broadway
and were discussing the riot. When
they saw the negro come out of
the hotel the groups quickly joined
with the mob and they, chased the negro
until It seemed the entire disorder and
riot had been transferred to Broadway.
Every JTcgro Chased.
Wherever a negro was seen he was on
the run, whether he was a participant or
not. This was the case of one who ran
out of a side street near Forty-second
street, chased by a mob. The negro ran
into Shanley'e restaurant, one of the fash
ionable up-town cafes. The place was filled
with people, many of whom were women.
The sight of the fugitive negro, cov
ered with blood, created a panic among
the women 4n the cafe, who rushed out
side only to find themselves In the midst
of a mob howling for blood. Some of the
patrons of the cafe who were dining up
stairs were with difficulty restrained from
Jumping out of the window.
The negro who had created this scene
escaped In the excitement, but another
negro named Walker, one of the theatrical
team of Williams and Walker, was seen
on a Broadway car, dragged off and given
a beating. His companion escaped, but
not until after he had received a severe
drubbing. Acting Captain Burns, of the
West Thirteenth-Street station, arrived
with a squad and arrested four white,
men, the. first whites of the riot to be
arrested. This was after 1 o'clock In the
morning.
At 2 o'clock this morning the police had
the riot In hand, although there was a
feeling that danger" was far from past,
and tt Heavy .police guard was mounted.
"Whenever negroes collected they were
swearing vengeance. Fortunately about
3 o'clock tnere was a heavy downpour
of rain, -and it is the opinion of the po
lice that this did more to dissipate the
mob and quiet the riot than a thousand
menw ould. hat e been able to do.
-vt o ciock, when it was. tnoughtall
was over, Policemen Hughes and Jenff.
of the West Thirtieth-Street Station, were
assaulted with a shower of bricks and
bottles" thrown by negroes on the roof
or a house. The crowd from the street
rushed up the stairway, but by the time
they reached the roof the assailants had
descended through scuttles and had dis
appeared. Two negroes were later pulled
from under a bed. They res'ated until
clubbed over the head, and one had his
nose broken. The men denied that they
were on the roof. r
'Harris a Dangerous Man.
Richard Harris was badly beaten up
on account of a report that he was the
man who had murdered Thorpe. It was
discovered later hat this was a mis-
take. However .as he had a dangerous
looking shoemaker's knife In his sleeve,
he was arrested.
The reserves of the station, which had
GOVERNOR QF WASHINGTON
been on duty nearly all night, were called
In during vthe morning, and after all was
comparatively aulet. The last arrests
made as reported by the police were
those of James E. and Ethel Harris. It
was said that the- man Is the Harris who
killed Thorpe. At the station he denied
knowing anything about Thorpe, and said
that neither he nor his wife had taken
any part In the disturbance.
Chief Deverey said 'today: "I will watch
this thing closely this morning, and If
any man In police uniform does anything
more than enforce the law, he will be
dismissed instantlv. This has been an
unfortunate occurrence, but It won't hap
pen again." ,
The police say that few, If any, previ
ous race riots In this city have com
pared with that of last night, so far as
the dogged determination of those who
precipitated it is concerned.
All the prisoners arrested in the riot,
except Leg, were arraigned in the West
Side Court today. A majority were fined
10; a fow were held In bonds to keep
the peace: several were discharged, and
Carr was held to await the result of the
Injuries to Officer Kennedy. The magis
trate stated In advance that all the pris
oners before him should have a fair trial.
Inspector Thompson, with 100 policemen
In addition to the several hundred regu
lar men In the precincts affected, was
on the ground in the riotous district be
fore nightfall, and he kept his men on
the move. They had orders to arrest any
rnan, black or white, who evinced tho
slightest disposition toward riot. The
police arrested several negroes after club
bing them severely.
The Trouble Renewed.
Inspector Thompson was near Eighth
avenue- and Fortieth street when he noi
tlced a tumult aboard an Eighth-avenue
car". H6 ran with a couple of men to
Investigate, and found that a negro pas
senger was the cause of the trouble. He
had not done anything wrong, but sev
eral white men tried to get In a punch at
the black man, and twow women tried to
stab him in the face with hat pins. In
spector Thompson arrived just In time to
see a paving stone crash through the
car window and lay the negro out wltli a
stunning blow on the head. Louis Swartz,
18 years old, threw the stone, He was
arrested.
Word reached "the West Forty-seventh
street station that a large mob was at
Eighth avenue and Forty-second street
The reserves were run out and dispersed
the crowd, which numbered over 1000 per
sons. A second alarm sent the reserves
to Forty-ninth street and Tenth avenue,
but not more than 50 persons were there.
They ran before the policemen. A mob
was reported at Amsterdam avenue and
Sixty-first at 1 p'clock. A squad went
there and found, a crowd of about 1000,
who were dispersed. The pollce then
found Anton Steweteslk, an Italian fruit
vender, lying on the sidewalk, stabbed in
the chest. He said William Cody, a white
boy, had robbed the fruit stand, and when
he had protested they beat him and
stabbed him with the Italian's frult
knlfe. A riot call was sent In from Thirty
seventh street and Eighth avenue at 10
o'clock. Chief Devery ordered Captain
Cooney to take a large squad and dis
perse the crowd. Cooney found several
hundred men and boys at the corner men
tioned, and they were acting very ugly.
The mob was charged and many persons
were clubbed. Policeman John J. How
ard saw a well-dressed 'man on the cor
ner and ordered him' to move on. The
man refused to do so. Howard knocked
him down and took a revolver from him.
Howard made another search and found
that the man had a badge. He then let
him go, convinced that he had 'beaten a
brother officer. Half an hour later the
policeman who had been clubbed stag
gered Into the West Thirty-seventh street
station to complain of his treatment.
Chief Devery at once recognized him as
Patrolman William Powers. Chief De
very ordered Captain Cooney to take
Powers shield and revolver, and lock him
up on the charge of having been drunk
and disorderly and flourishing a revolver

MANIFESTO FROM FIT?
IF JEFFRIES "WILL NOT FIGHT; HE
WILL CLAIM CHAMPIONSHIP.
National League Scores Results of
the Harness and Running Races
Other Sporting; News.
NEW yORK, Aug. 16. James J. Jef
fries' refusal to meet the winner of. the
Sharkey-iFitzsimmons bout August 31 has
caused the Australian to Issue a state
ment, in which he threatens to claim tlje
championship by default. If successful in
his coming encounter In this statement
Fltzslmmons says-,
"I. see that Jeffries has crawled out of
the responsibility of meeting me In the
ring again. Tuesday Mr. Brady, waiting
until Sharkey and myself wert matched
for August 24. challenged the winner. tot
meet Jeffries August 31. I promptly ac-'
cepted the opportunity, providing I was
fortunate enough to defeat Sharkey. The
matter was settled then and there. Now
this great champion v of the world can't
devote 10 days' training for the prospect
of establishing beyond question his, right
to the title and earning about $25,000.
"The truth of the matter is that Jef
fries is afraid to meet me again. I have
accepted every offer he ever made for a
return match, and yet ho has made a
silly excuse to get out of the match. I
hereby give Jeffries notice that, having
accepted his challenge. In the event of
winning from Sharkey, I shall claim the
championship of the world, and I believe
the public will sustain my claim and rec
ognize mo as the real champion."
When W. A. Brady, the champion's
manager, was shown Fltzslmmons' .state,
ment, he said:
"Fltzslmmons will have to defeat Shar
key or we will not consider any match
with him. Jeffries knocked him out once
and there la no reason why he should
fight again with him. Jeffries, however,
to show that he is the real champion, will
fight Fltzslmmons If he wins from the
sailor, but there is ono condition that I
will insist upon, and that is that the win
ner shall take the entire purse. He will
not split the purse, as Fltzslmmons sug
gested to me the other day."

Several Sully County farmers who
sowed a large acreage of wheat last
Spring, and who did not secure a crop
on account of the dry weather, are cut
ting the growth of wild grass and thistles
with what wheat did show up for fodder
for their cattle. Several tests which
have been mado show that when thistles
are cut before the thorns harden, cat
tle will leave the hest of hay for this

yield a far larger tonnage to tho acre
than will prairie hay.

but stated that he reserved the right to
support a, third candidate if ene were
nominated who satisfied him better thaa
Mr. Bryan.
Thomas M. Osborne, of New York, lead
er of the Nationalists, was allowed to
speak on the resolutions. Mr. Osborne
said there were many who could support
neither McKlnley nor Bryan, not bel ev
lng It right to remedy one wrong by sub-
1 stitutlng another.
"We cannot trust the Democratic party
as dt stands." today." (Cries of "bosh.""
How much did Mark Haana pay you to
1 come here?" "I believe a third ticket
must arise to command the suffrage ami
conscience of the voters. When you tia
fip a question of conscience with some-
thing which a large majority ef your peo
ple do not believe In. you destroy tho
force of your arguments
Mr. Osborne moved an amendment
striking out that portion of the resolu
tions which support Bryan.
Colonel Codman spoke against Mr Os
borne's motion. He thought the crisis
In which the country stands needs Imme
diate attention.
"As one member of this congress." ho
said, "I do not hesitate to support M-.
Bryan. I propose to vote with the part
which Is right on the one great quebtk a
now before the country."
Rev. S. W. Sample, of Minneapolis, and
( Edgar A. Bancroft, of Chicago, also-
urged the Indorsement of Bryan. John
Jay Chapman, of New York, one of tho
independents," opposed the Indorsement;
ox Bryan.
George G. Mercer, of Philadelphia, sail
a third ticket was needed by some nut
who magnified the danger of free sllwr
''But." he added, "let them not coma
here and attempt to put a third ticket
upon us. The so-called Independents pro
pose to take a whack at the universe,
while we propose to devote our enegrlea
to the destruction of imperialism."
Paul Korsch, of Rock Island. Ill ;
Franklin Pierce, of New York, and Judgo
Decker, of Colorado, opposed the amena
ment, strongly advocating support of
Bryan. Oswald VUHard. of New York,
spoke against the specific Indorsement oC
Bryan. Edwin Osgood Brown, of Chi
cago, a member of the resolutions cony
mlttee, spoke vigorously in favor ot the
platform as reported.
Debate on the Resolutions.
At the afternoon sesston tho debate on
tho report of the resolutions comm.ttco
was resumed. M. E. Brldgeman. of
Massachusetts, offered a substitute st-ik-ing
out all reference to Bryan In the plat
form. Judge Moses Halott, of Colorali.
said that the Colorado delegation would
leave tho city during the afternoon, and
on his motion all those delegates who
were, forced to leave the congress beforo
the taking of the vote were permitted t:
record their votes on pending question:"
before leaving or to Instruct proxies to
vote for them.
Ex-Congressman John B. White, of
Kentucky, took c cceptlon to the language
of the resolutions, which said that ""V.
weeomo all means of defeating Mr. Mc
Kinley." He said it was language like
that which caused the assassination of
Goebel In Kentucky. He said he alwaya
has been a Republican and objected to
tho apparent desire of the convention to
transform Itself Into a Democratic con
vention. Mr. White charged that a por
trait of Brya-n was concealed under an
American flag over the platform.
"Tako down that covering over Bryan 3
picture," he said. "Let us not masquer
ade any longer; let your convention ba
known for what It Is a Democratic con
vention." Then followed a running debate for and
against the amendment of Mr. Osborne tf
strike out the Indorsement of Bryan.
Those who opposed the amendment anl
favored the Indorsement of Bryan were:
William Potts, of New York; Jacob In
genthron, of Chicago; Flsk Warren, of
Massachusetts t D. B. Hasklns, of Massa
chusetts; James B. Howard, of Harris
burg. Pa.; A. M. Neff. of Ohio; David
Rothschild, of Massachusetts; N. E.
Guyot, of Colorado, and Edwin Burrltt
Smith, of Chicago. Those who favored
the amendment and opposed Indorsement
of Bryan were: Ralph E. Emerson, of
Massachusetts, a son of Ralph Waldo
Emerson; Robert A. WUdman, of New
York, a delegate to the "Independent," or
third-ticket convention, and M. E. Bridge
man, of Massachusetts.
Mr. Guyot, of Colorado, said he had
served a year as a private soldier in tho
Philippines. "To my knowledge." ho
said, "those operations carried on by tho
Administration in the Philippines con
stitute the most damnable crime in the
history of the United States. The Fili
pinos assisted us to land; they were in
the trenches with us; they desired us U
fire upon the Spanish, and jet it Is said
they were not our allies. They were our
allies, and the entire record of the Ad
ministration in the Philippines has been
one ot treachery and deceit. Could you
have seen as I have seen the conditions
In the Philippines, you would not hesltato
a moment to Indorse W. J. Bryan.
In closing the debate, Edwin B. Smith
answered the charge of Mr. White, of
Kentucky, by saying that he had no
knowledge of any portrait of Bryan in
Tomllnson Hall. He said the executive
committee had directed that all portrai a
of ail living men should be removed from
the hall before the meeting of the con
gress. Before a vote was taken to the amend
ment, Mr. Osborne accepted the substi
tute of Mr. Brldgeman. which eliminated
all reference to Bryan, and read as fol
lows: "Without regard to views on minor
questions of Democratic policy, we wel
come and advise the use of all honorable
means of defeating the re-election cf
William McKlnley, In order to stamp
with our disapproval what he has done
to establish Imperialism."
The substitute was lost by an over
whelming majority, only 15 voting for it.
The resolutions, as reported, were then
adopted. less than a score of delegates
voting against them.
The following reso'utlon. proposed by
W. S. Holden, of Chicago, was addd to
the platform as reported.
"Resolved. That in declaring that the
principles of the Declaration of Independ
ence apply to all men, this congress means
to Include the negro race In, America tia
well as the Filipinos. We deprecate all
efforts, whether in the SoutTt or tn the
North, to deprive the negro of his r ghts
as a citizen under the Declaration f In
dependence and Constitution of the United
States."
H. J. Scott, of Cairo, spoke strongly In
favor of this resolution, claiming that if
It was Ignored, Bryan would lose thou
sands ot negro votes. .
By a rising vote the congress adopted a
resolution expressing appreciation of the
services of George S. Boutwetl in the
cause of anti-lmperlallsm
The congress concluded tonight with an
address at Tomllnson Hail by Charles A.
Towne. of Minnesota. Mr. Towne wia
greeted by a large and enthusiastic audi
ence. DANDRUFF WON'T WASH OUT.
