REYES'S WORK FOR COLOMBIA. Political Activity of the Man Reported To Be Dictator of the Country. General Rafael Reyes has been President of Co lombia a little more than a year. He was staying In this city when the elections were held in the republic, having gone to Washington with General Jorge Holguin and General Pedro Nel Ospina. as commissioner from Colombia, in connection with the secession of Panama- General Reyes Is a member of the Conservative party, which has been in power for more than twenty-ore years In Colombia, and has for many years been active in the turbulent politics of the country. He was formerly Colombian Minister to Paris, and has been regarded as one of the ablest diplomats in tho service of his country. While there were several candidates In the field at the election which resulted in his choice as chief executive, the opposition to General Reyes was never of a serious character. He was sup ported by both wings of the Conservative party— tha Historicals and the Nationalists. His prom inent part in the movement of protest in Colombia against, the secession of Panama had helped ma terially In his election to succeed President Mar roquin. Being a military man. President Reyes has ruled with an iron hand, and always has been more or less of a dictator.

At S a. m. on September 16 the Lucigen -was sighted and answered the Bremen's signals of distress. The Lucigen took the steamer in "tow at noon, but the vessels had not gone far before the lines parted. This caused a delay of four hour?, and it was 5 o'clock before the steamers started again. They headed for Halifax and arrived here this afternoon. Besides a large general cargo, the Bremen has thirty-nine sa loon, seventy-three second cabin and fifty-six steerage passengers. To-morrow divers -will make sin examination of the steamer. The Bremen may be detain**! her? for six weeks.

J., Sept. 19 (Special) — "Now. you nigger. I'll teach you how to talk to a white man!" cried Charles E. Napp, formerly a Southerner, now a real estate broker, of No. 949 Broadway, New-York, this morning, as he discharged a revolver at Daniel Coleman, a negro hostler employed in the livery stable of \V. S. Rule, at Metuchen. The bullet struck Coleman in th»: chest anc" glanced into his arm. The trouble arose over the negro's alleg-ed in solence to the broker. Napp was conveying a Shetland pony from New-York to his home at Trenton, and, the journey having tired the ani mal, its owner stopped at Metuchen and made arrangements for shipping the pony the rest of the way by rail. In driving up to Rule's stable, I Napp shouted for Coleman to come ou: and hel;> him unhitch. The negTO was busy at the time. "Oh, I'll come out when I get ready," he re sponded, and the reply nettled Napp. He spoks I sharply to Coleman, and the latter retorted in j kind. Napp says the man threatened him with a razor. Then Napp, who was unarmed, hurried to a hardware store, purchased a revolver, and, returning to the stable, shot Coleman. Napp was placed under arrest. He telephoned to his nearest friend, E. L. Kerns, of Trenton, to get bail.

U., Gets Word. Justice William J. Gaynor, in a letter to John Brooks Leavitt, of the Citizens Union city com mittee, says that he is not a candidate for Mayor, and that his name is not to be used. Largely on account of the fact that Mr. Leavitt WILL.IAM J. GATXOK Who is being considered as fusion candidate fof Mayor despite his expressed desire not to run. is a strong advocate of the re-election of Mayor McClellan and last winter In the Citizens Union introduced a resolution calling for his indorse ment by the union, the letter received by Mr. Le^vitt from Justice Gaynbr is not regarded as either important or conclusive. The Republican conferrees, representing the element which will contribute the preponderance of votes against the Tammany ticket on No vember 7, have no doubt that when the Mayor alty nomination Is offered to Justice Gaynor. If It is. It will evoke from him a response totally different from the one received by Mr. Leavitt and used with suspicious fervor by the element In the Citizens Union hostile to the nomination of Mr. Gaynor. The letter from Justice Gaynor to Mr. Leavitt is as follows: My Dear Leavitt: In answer to your inquiry. I can only say that on the day I arrived from Europe certain emi nent gentlemen saw me and requested me to allow my name to be presented to and agreed upon for the fusion Mayoralty conference I felt constrained to decline, ard my determina tion was communicated to them. All of that occurred last week. I <1M COt f«-el that it was for me to make a public announcement of the fact, but you can show this letter if you wish. My name la not to be used. Yours sincerely, W. J. GAYNOR. "What else could Justice Gaynor say?" was the universal question among tha Republican conferrees yesterday when Mr. Leavitt's status became fully known. When seen at his office, R_ Fulton Cutting said that Mr. Leavitt had acted on his own initiative in getting from Mr. Gaynor an expression of his views previous to official action by the important factors In tha anti-Tammany movement. CALLS INDORSEMENT BACKHANDED. '•It should be borne in mind," said a Repub lican conferree. "that Mr Cutting, for some reason or other, •we do not know what, is hos tile to Justice Gayr.or. He and his immediat" friends dominate the Citizens Union and all its committee*. The committee or. nominations of the union, acting In sympathy with the wishes of Mr. Cutting, pappeo a resolution declaring that Mr Gaynor was not an available candi date. The nigh; thai Mr. Cutting and hi? friends bolted the fusion i onference the sentiment wa3 overwhelmingly in favor of nominating Mr. Gaynor. Mr. Cutting discovered this eariy, and walked out of the fusion conference. giving as a reason that the Republicans would not dis cuss candidates nnd were wasting time. "At th» meetlns: of the Citizens Union last ni"*ht President Cutting received a ba.-khanded indorsement oi his action, the spirit of the reso lution which was adopted being clearly a notice to him to go bark to the fusion conference and work for a winning anti-Tammany ticket. The committee on nominations met this afternoon, and the flrst step in the ostensible carrying out of the spirit of the resolution was to flash a lptt^r from Mr. Leavitt, an avowed McClellan advocate which, from one point of view, Justi fles the Cutting coi?rie in its hostility to the Judge. M „ . Thi? whole business savors of dismgenuou;» nesa and ward politics, and is unworthy hlgh mlnded men. Judge Gaynor is admittedly the most available candidate to run against Mc- Clellan, and the rank and file of the Citizens Union are aware of this fact. They let Mr. Cutting down easily on Monday night, but at the next meeting, if the present tactics are con tinued, there will be an indignation meeting in the citizens- Union, and a resolution exceedingly specific in its terms will b<? passed. Mr. Cutting Will have to obey the spirit actuating the rank and file in their desire to put a winning anti- Tammany ticket in the field, or the Union will go to pieces. VAN IDERSTINE CALLS ON HALPIX.

Democratic and Republican. w»r« held in every Assembly district In this city yes terday. In the majority of the districts the primaries passea off quietly without contest, hut in several districts the fights for leadership were exceritionally bitter. The hottest fight was in the 15th. where ex-Senator George W. Plun kltt, with his ally. John E. Dordan. lined up against "The' 1 McManus. In the Republican camp the hottest struggle was in the 12th Dis trict, where Abraham Maae, hacked by John E. Steibling, an ex-leader and deputy United States marshal, made a fljeht asrainst Jacob Newstead. ttte present leader. In both these fights charges of fraud, the use of thugs and repeaters and riotous fights between the rival factions were the order of the day. The other contests wer« of minor importance, but nevertheless many o£ them developed bitternesa and much lawlessness. The Republican factional fights started In the Ist District at the Battery. While this district Is overwhelmingly Democratic, the rivalry for the Republican leadership was acute Edwin F. Merwin. the present leader, was opposed by l>r. William M. Keen. Dr. Keen was backed by the Stalwart Club, of No. 19 North Moore-st. Tha day was a lively one in the district, and several clashes occurred between the rival camps. When the ballots were counted last night Merwin had about 80 per cent of the vote. Ir. the 13th District Herman Joveshof had a hard struggle with Michael Blake. Joveshof got 441 votes and Blake 424. Blake announced last night that 40 votes had been illegally cast for Joveshof. and that he would contest the elec tion. Theodore P. Gilman. the Republican leader In the 19th District, defeated ex-Congressman W. H. Dougrlas, who opposed him, bj- a vote of 1,320 to 710. In the Democratic districts the fights -were carried on viciously. In the >th District. Joseph Prendergast. backed by Senator Bernard P. Martin, had a fight on his hands to retain the leadership.
