ber reached their mark and yet Reyes
stood despite the efforts of his son
to induce him to seek shelter. - For 20
minutes --he - remained therja dodging
missiles, which wrecked tbe windows
and signs ? covering he front of. the
building.. The police, hated by the pop
ulace as the instrument used by Diaz
to maintain order, had drawn their
sabers and charged the. crowd.
Police Are Attacked.
Content with momentary sucess and,
remembering their orders to deal gent
ly with the mob, the police reformed
after each charge and held their posi
tion on the opposite sldje of the street.
Emboldened by the knowledge that the
police did not Intend to attempt drastic
maesures, the rabble turned its atten
tion to them, hurling a shower of
stones.
Fqr more -than an hour the fight be
tween the police and .Jflie mob con
tinued. Inside the building, Reyes'3
friends had succeeded in convincing
him it was Useless ti try to, carry out
his pprogram. The party had an auto
mobile brought to the entrance and in
it they started for the Reyes home in
Santa Maria.
The chauffeur drove the car down'
Avenida Juarez at racing speed and
a troop of mounted police galloped far
In the rear. The flying automobile
escaped most of the stones burled at
it, but the escort of police was stoned
at every jump by the rowd which
now lined the avenue the length of the
Alameda.
Once jfree 'of the crowd, Reyes dis
covered that he had been .robbed of
3000 pesos. Rodblfo Reyes felt for his
watch and it was gone. At least a
dozenof the Reyists contingent had
been the victims of pickpockets.
Cavalry Called Oat.
Meanwhile in the center of the city
the authorities still had the problem
of dealing with the rahtfle. Orders
were- sent to army headquarters and
soon a troop of cavalry apepared,, os
tensibly to assit the police in restoring
order. The army is :not -hated by the
lower element as are the police. The
khakFclad horsemen, were greeted with
half hearted cheers, although with sa
bers with hand and cartride belts
filled, they were ready for business.
SIX MINERS ARE
KILLED IN CAGE
Butte, Mont.. Sept. 4. Caught in a
vortex of whirling steel machine drills
in a mine cage while being hoisted to the
surface, five miners met instant death in
the shaft of the Blacfo Rock mine ol the
Butte-Superior company Sunday morn-J

few hours later in the hospital, from the
injuries he received,.
In their anxiety to reach, the surface
the workmen jumped 'on the cage, upon
which dull steel was being taken to the
surface. It is presumed that in their
crowding they dislodged the steel shafts
from the box in which they were held,
and they caught in the wall plates on the
side, the ends whirling with terrific
force among the men on the cage, clear
ing the deck of the miners, fairly minc
ing their bodies as the steel bounded
back and forth, and sweeping them into
the sump, 1400 feet below. Charles
Green, station tender, finally was hurled
from the upper deek -of the 'cage to the
lower level by the impact when the
brakes -were applied and was decapitated,
as were, all--the other miners with the
exception cXeewnose head was mashed
to a -pulp.

Glad to Testify.
"I am very glad to get the chance to
go on the stand," said the prisoner to
an Associated Press representative.
"They 'could not keep me off, if they
tried."
"Did somebody try to keep you from
the stand?"
"Yes. Some people thought I would
weaken my case if I testified."
Attorney Smith talked enthusiastic
ally and hopefully about the testimo
ny of Beattle.
"1 am sure Henry Beattle will clear
himself," he said. "Why, just consider
that what ,has been said against him
has been almost entirely clrcumstan-
tial evidence and just remember what
Mr. Kestleberg's testimony showed
about the danger of accepting circum
stantial evidence. The discovery of
Mr. Kestleberg as a witness was an ac
cident, and when we found out that Jie
knew, we literally had to drag him Into
court. He, shows that it was he whom
lhe boys saw fixing the automobile on
the night of the murder, and does not
that cast a big doubt as to other evi
dence which the' -prosecution has
brought out?" -
Beattle Pallid.
Beattie's face was pallid -and hid
eyelids sagged as if he had lost sleep.
The uncomfortable little cell that he
occupied was cheerless. Last night two
dainty little girls, one in pink and the
other in white, proudly brought the
prisoner his supper. He retired early
to rest for the ordeal of today.

WHO CRY DEftTH
Tells of Thousands of Well
Paid Mexicans in the
United States.
Torreon, Mex., Sept. 4. Of the nu
merous speeches which have been
made in the course of the working
men's demonstrations in this section
none, with the exception of that of De
Lara, the socialist, has caused greater
Interest than that delivered by a man
of the lower class from the kiosk in
the Gomez" Palacio plaza to the mul
titude assembled there.
The talker asked the Mexicans to
drop their anti-foreign feeling and
was characterized by not only its sin
cerity, but by the soundness of Its
argument.
What if the people of the United
States should take a notion every
Fourth of July to cry "Jueren los
Mexlcanos," and attempt either to kill
them or arive them out of their coun
try? he asked.
Retaliation Certala.
"If we massacre foreigners in our
midst, what would become of the Mex
icans who are living in foreign coun
tries, especially in the United States?"
he asked. "Would they be .disposed
to do so, should they not be Justified
in according our brethren the same
treatment as we give to foreigners
here In Mexico? Thousands of Mexi
can workmen cross the river into El
Paso and other American ports.
Laborers Well Paid.
"They are well paid, well 'treated,
and when they return to Mexico they
say th'ey are pleased with their stay
in the United States and often go
back there. Why should we object to
foreigners residing in our country
when our own countrymen are going
to foreign countries continually? Shall
we endanger the lives of those who
leave Mexico by our unmerited actions
here?"
His remarks were received with ap
plause by the crowds in the plaza.

Rev. A. Marston spoke in Spanish. He
called onhe Mexican people to extend
their energies to character, building in
their work and to put forth, their efforts
in this regard in their work towards
their churches.
Dr. Wright's Address.
Rev. Caspar S. Wright used for his
subject the motto used ilbnday by the
Pastors' union in the Labor day parade,
which is, "Eor we are laborers together"
with God.."
Churches and the Unions.
Rev. Perry J. Rice dealt with the labor
unions and the laboring men more than
with the religious subject. The churches,
he said, likewise had friendly feelings
towards the unions as the churches in a
way are unions ad they advocate many
things which the unions do
.Christ as a Laborer.
Rev. Jeff D. Rav chosa. for his subject,
"Jesus rChrist.' He deWwitb. Him as
the laboring man who not only worked
at manual labor, but worked-just as

Religious way.
