Drus The Home of the United States Consul Stoned and Attack Made on the Consulate Charge With 2 a -Drawn Swords Two A perican Consulate Guarded nice to aelyta Bu.BAO, Spain, March -There was another anti- American riot here today. About 13,000 people took part.
The excitement was started by a group of young men at street corner, began cheering every soldier who passed. Their conduct was imitated by other groups until every soldier on the streets was cheered by the crowds. Some musicians who refused to repeat the national anthem were beaten and otherwise maltreated. The excitement gradually increased and riotous groups formed in the main streets, cheering for Spain and denouncing the United States. The authorities did everything possible to maintain order.
The entire police force was turned out and the rioters were dispersed again and again. The mob soon became so numerous that the police were almost helpless. Crowds armed themselves with sticks and cudgels, swept the police aside, marched towards the private home of the United States consul shouting "Long live Spain," with the Yankees." the way to the consul's home they hurled stones through the windows of stores and private homes, overturned 0 number of vehicles, pulled several mounted policemen from their horses and generally behaved in a threatening manner. Stores dealing in American goods received the most attention. The windows of the consul's house were shattered, although the police defended the building.
The mob then proceeded in the direction of the United States consulate, evidently intending to stone that building as well. But the authorities had hastened a strong force of police to that building and had placed other detachments of police across the street leading to it. When the mob neared the consulate it was confronted by the police with drawn swords. The mob halted and then began pelting the police vigorously with stones and pieces of brick. A squad of officers charged.
Several rioters drew revolvers and fired, wounding two policemen. This caused the police to charge in body, and, using. their swords with good effect, the rioters were dispersed, yelling and hooting at the authorities and shouting "Down with the Yankees" and "Long live Spain." The United States consulate 18 guarded by a strong detachment of gendarmes, armed with carbines. revolvers and swords and they have instructions to fire upon a mob if necessary. MAY ELECT BLACKBURN.
Senator Wolssinger, His Strongest Oppo- pent, Succumbs to Pneumonia. FRANKFORT, March 10. -Senator Rosel Weissinger, a sound money Democrat, is dead. Senator had been ill for several days with a bad cold, which changed into pneumonia. Senator Weissinger, had played a more important part in the senatorial contest than any other member of the general assembly.
To him was due the arrangement of a pair with Senator Stege, the Republican member from Louisville, which prevented the Republicans from having a majority on joint ballot on the death of Mr. Wilson few weeks ago. But for this Dr. Hunter would now be United States senator. Weissinger constituted the backbone of the Democratic opposition to Senator But for him the election of Hunter, or Blackburn, would have occurred weeks ago.
Neither the Republicans nor the Democrats will deny this. The controlling influence he exercised over the contest was emphasized Saturday, when, but for his release of Senator Chambers, Republican, from a pair that the latter might vote for Carlisle, Blackburn no doubt would have carried the day.

There was some music and considera ble singing and the customary religious invocations, after which Ballington Booth rose and said: Mrs.
Booth and myself have not come here to-night to allude to the recent sad trouble. It is quite true we have, after mature deliberation, decided to inaugurate a new movement. Could we have avoided it, it would most assuredly have been done on our part; but, recognizing the great American people believed that we had done a work nine years, for which they were gratified, and would not listen to the protest that we would retire into private life- as we did, the largest field in the world, and still further recognizing that there was room in America for one, two, aye, 100 Salvation armies, we have resolved, to the best of our ability, to win over the middle classes of the artisan munity of this country.

NOT ALL FOR M'KINLEY. FORAKER MEN BREAK THE SOLID FRONT IN OHIO. BITTER FACTIONAL FIGHT. the star de EN Opposition to the Protection Candidate Developed by a Betusal to Send Any Foraker Men Delegates Through Fear of Treachery Chairman Kurts Talks not the Situation. CINCINNATI, Ohio, March 10.
-The Ohio Republican convention will meet at Columbus to- morrow afternoon for temporary organization, with Senatorelect J. B. Foraker as temporary chair: man. He says his speech will be the Ohio nomination of McKinley for President, and that he will now discuss issues. 'It is expected that the temporary organization will be made permanent on Wednesday, when deiegates and alternates at large will be for the St.
Louis- convention and a State ticket nominated. It is conceded that Senator-elect Foraker, Governor Bushnell, General Grosvenor and Mark Hanna will be the four delegates at large. Everything is not so serene for Me Kinley as it appears, however. There has been a well organized fight in opposition in the Columbus or Twelfth district, and it appears that the faction which is backed by Foraker will send several delegates to the national convention at St: Louis favoring Reed, thus breaking the solid delegate vote of the State for McKinley. The beginning of the fight in the Columbus district dates back to the trip of Chairman Kurtz to Cleveland to see Mark Hanna, the McKinley manager, six weeks ago.
Mr. Kurtz said he would like to go to the national convention from the Columbus district, and that in a number of the districts the friends of Senator-elect Foraker would like to have a chance to make a fight for the place. He advised Hanna that it would not be the part of wisdom to put Foraker men on the blacklist and bar them from preferment at the hands of the party simply because they were the friends of Foraker. As to himself, being chairman of the State executive committee, the party was in honor bound to elect him if he became candidate, and he desired that such election be brought about by peaceable means if possible. He warned Hanna that the Foraker men would send delegates to St.
Louis that they were Republicans of good repute and would not sit idly by and see the friends of McKinley arrange the districts and crowd the Foraker men to the wall. Hanna would not agree that the Foraker men should have an chance with friends of McKinley to go to St. Louis. He admitted that McKinley was taking no chances and there might be an enemy introduced in camp if the bars were let down. Chairman Kurtz came home angry and at once put machinery that he worked so successfully in the late campaign in shape for operations.
He announced himself as a candidate against Henry C. Taylor and E. N. Huggins, the McKinley State candidates, and declared he would beat them both. This he accomplished.
This and Fairfield counties were organized as never before, and for two days before the primaries every school district, ward and precinct was visited. Thousands of circulars were sent broadcast over this city and county by the Mcmanagers, that if Kurtz won, McKinlev would be stabbed in the back; that he (Kurtz) was a traitor, etc. The vote cast was unprecedented and the triumph of the Foraker wing is complete. Chairman Kurtz said Saturday night in a quiet way: McKinley managers tried to turn me down simply because I desired to be a delegate to St. Louis.
Tam a Republican and have a right to aspire to honor. They thought not. But the -people overruled the McKinley managers and I am a winner. SenaForaker said he was tired taking the oath of allegiance to MoKinley every. morning before breakfast.

Had Considerable Cash and Fears Are Entertained that He has Been Foully Dealt With Affairs of an Insurance Company--Nebraska News. OMAHA. March Johnson, who has been living on a rented farm about a mile west of the state fair grounds, is missing, but whether he has gone away on business of his own, or has been foully dealt with, is not, known.
Johnson was a single man, a Swede, about twenty-six years of age, of good habits and industrious. He chas' lived in Douglas county for several years, and was an honest, hard working, man and a good, He had little shanty on the farm in which "he lived and boarded himself. He has been busy all winter hauling his corn to market, selling it to different parties, but the bulk of it going to Howe Smith at South Omaha. February 23 he called at the feed store of F. Peterson, on Leavenworth street just off Sixteenth, and at that time had checks for $200 to $300 which he was going down to have cashed.

NOT YET COMMENCED. The Mandamus Suit to Compel the Auditor to Issue a Certificate.
LINCOLN, March 11. -The much talked of mandamus suit of the Farmers' Mutual Insurance company of Nebraska to compel Auditor Moore to issue a certificate of authority has not yet been commenced in the supreme court. An attorney for the company called at the state house last Friday to obtain leave to file such an action, but the court had adjourned until March 17. It is necessary to secure permission of the court before such an action can be commenced. Orders for leave to file are sometimes issued by one judge when the court is not in session, but it is not known whether the attorney in this case will endeavor to get an order from one of the judges or wait until court convenes on the 17th.
Auditor Moore issued a certificate recently in which he gave his permission for the company to transact business pending settlement in court. This certificate is ample evidence that Auditor Moore does not intend to interfere, but it now seems that representatives of the old line insurance companies propose to cause the arrest of the company's agents for attempting to write insurance for a company that has no certificate of authority. The old certificate expired about February 2, and the document referred to is the only certificate held by the company. The foundation for the belief that the old line agents expect to prosecute the Mutual company's agents is the report that a general agent at West Point went out over Cuming county in company with a gentleman whom he expected to appoint as local agent, but by the time they got farmers interested representatives of old line companies appeared and threatened the gentlemen with arrest. President J.
D. Woods of this city proposes to protect the Mutual company's interests. He left today for Bancroft to what redress can be secured. Trouble has also arisen at Dunbar, where it is claimed some one posted a notice in a public place, stating that the Farmer's Mutual was insolvent and had no authority to write policies in this state. Mr.
Woods proposes to institute suit for damages in the latter case if the person who put up the notice can be found. BARNEY'S NEW TRIAL.

"When McGinn was brought into the court room it was apparent, that he was weak from lack of exercise, having been confined in county jail since the commission of the crime. He took his seat by his counsel and his face, which is now wrinkled with age, showed neither nervousness nor anxiety over the outcome of the case. The state has, through the long delay occasioned in the supreme court, lost two of its strongest witnesses, one a woman who was an eye witness to the shooting and who is now in New York. other witness left the city a few days ago and went to St. Louis under suck circumstances that the county attorney.
says he thinks of starting an investigation into the cause of his disappearance. Some evidence has already been secured by the state which the county attorney says shows that McGinn's friends have been at work. Many Join the Church.
