ANTAGONISM TO
PINO SUAREZ IS
SPREADING WIDE
Candidate for Vice President of
. Mexico Is Hissed at Public
Meeting
Madero Says People Are Afraid
Reyes Will Impose New
Dictatorship
MEXICO CITY. Sept. 4.—"Long live
Madero; death to Pino Suarez." was the
shout with which the people in* Puebla
.greeted _ speech by Francisco I. Madero
today, indicating how the candidacy of
Jose Pino Suarez for the vice presi
dency has been received in some parts
of the republic. ;,.,'.. ?
* Only in a few quarters has the insur
gent movement been directed against
Madero, the progressive nominee for the
presidency, but the spirit.of antagonism
toward Suarez has been manifested by
public statements and editorials
throughout the republic.
Friends of Madero express a lively
fear that the selection of Suarez and
- the riot of _ yesterday, when General
Bernardo Reyes, the opposition candi
jj date for president was stoned, may
lessen the chances of Madero .for elec
tion. *-•-," 1 ;,*;."','.'.;,;.',.'. ft ">.,.„ -f
PAPERS CONDEMN R10T...
V A number of the dailies of the capi
tal condemn the riot, asking in de
rision: "What sort of a democracy is
this we have gained?"
Dr. Francisco Vasquez .Gomez, the
.defeated candidate for vice presidential
.nomination, in a public statement as
sails Madero as having annulled the
benefits of the revolution, and declares
"- that "under the? regime of "Diaz more?
.consideration was given Madero him
self when he organized a manifestation
in the capital in 1910 than was? ac
corded yesterday to General Reyes.; *
DICTATORSHIP FEARED
While Madero in a public statement
deprecated the riot, he 'explained that
the people were afraid that Reyes
would impose on them another * dic
tatorship.- He also made a prediction
that his ticket? would have the support
of 99 per.cent of the people.?
Popular opinion in the capital seems
.to- be that the- refusal-of thet people
to permit Reyes to speak would make
friends for Reyes, and react on the
Maderistas. . ",;.":.",'."■:* -. "■ "'*

the Cleveland boy's second ■;chance to
put the Mexican out of the running for
Attells title, and he did it in decisive
style. With Rivers leading in almost
every round- up to the last, Kilbane
landed his right"-on.the Mexicans jaw
30 seconds after the gong ' had sent
them • together. The punch :■■ dazed
Rivers, but- did not knock him'down.

ing , groggily. 1: to 3 his feet. 1 Rivers *tried
gamely ; to rush: into a clinch, but : Kil

a well-directed .; right cross *sent- the
defeated man sprawling to the canvas.
It.was fully five minutes before Rivers
was able to leave the ring. >;. ' ? 'ft, f

point, that Kilbane would not last the
limit. - ,- ft' .■?■■••:-'.■•• '
ft-Although Rivers won -the decision
when they- met two months ago, Kil
bane took his * victory * today as a mat
ter, of course.. When?, he „ had' dressed
he made his way through a s hole in •■ the

than? I," he said, ."but, he had a bad
case ■of overconfidence. In *my 'last

carefully. Generally within ;a, week one
of the birds will begin to pick it up.
and at ft the end* of two all should have
the first "bars. '.Then I take up? another

JUNKMAN BIDS IN
CHOICE PICKINGS
Ingleside Hospital Equipment
Goes for $91 at Hastened
Auction Sale
■. .ft -.'- * "..' „-: ;„: ,: ■■ '■;».'•'«.■ ';-..■-- ' .-■-; .- '
An unusually/fat Junkman's' harvest
was reaped last Saturday in the city
and county hospital sale at Ingleside I
for $91 of a large amount of kitchen j
, equipment and "supplies, which at sec- j
ond hand, sold "at retail, might very
well bring $1,500. Not all the formal
ities and publicity enjoined by the char
ter in the auctioning off of city prop
erty were had in this' case, with the
result? that some prospective bidders
went out to the ground only to learn
that ? everything? had been disposed -of.
One large r kitchen range /c and 10
small ranges, 60 barrels, 200?■: sugar
sacks. 6?? big?i drum ? heaters';? 60 sinks.
80 patent toilets, a lot of /electric; wir
ing, switches * and \ sockets * and ? ; 15 i tons
of 5 coal were the principal/Items in the
lot, which was secured':by bidder 'Hoey
for $91. Some 20 bidders, in spite of
the brief -notice 'of \ two " days' advcrtla-ft
■ ing in the official paper, were .on ! the
ground, but, like the ; operations of * the
"forty t thieves"'lnV other cases, ft, their
rivalryi: did ft. not i force '; Hoey ?. to ft: go r into
three j figures to* get a ' small trainload
of material.
RESOLD AT ONCE ?>.
?;?Hoey;ls'reported?to: have? sold some
of the . stuff to housewives before ? leav
ing the /ground and to have made a rich
haul by his competitors' forbearance. It
was a hurry up sale in which the char
ter requirements in I the sale of ?public
property were t but slightly/heeded, ft .
The -board of \ supervisors may au
thorize / theft.: mayor ,'- to? •sell?- at ft? public
auction 1 after 10 ;days'/,noticegproperty;
which has been condemned.*-.... Instead,*
Secretary- Leffingwell /of the /mayor's

tion himself. - ,
]£Silt was an unusual case,"/ said ;Sec* i
