(Money" convention to be held here tol-
moirow will be largely atended. Thera
are probably 200 delegates in the city
tonight with the bulk to arrive tomor-
row. Practically all the sentiment so
far expressed is In favor of a new state
organization and a straight fight for
sound currency and Democratic prin-
ciples. At a caucus this evening at-
tended by about 1.800 delegates, no
division developed. All the speakers
favored organization of the state. Great
unanimity appeared to exist.
red armed and mounted men sur-
round this place with the avowed pur-
pose of taking the town, while almost
as many are camped about the court
house determined to resist. Bloodshed
can hardly be averted tomorrow, and
already in tho exchange of shots a man
Is said to have been killed.
Opelousas, La., April 20.—At this
hour (3 p.m..) 500 men of both parties
are now on the move and a desperate
conflict is expected at any time. Over
250 regulars armed with Winchesters
have surrounded the town and their os-
tensible object is to capture the court
house. On the vote of the Pelousas
ward depends their success or defeat
In the parish and they are concentrat-
ing their efforts here. They realizs
that if a full vott Is polled the combine
will win.
The report came to Opt*laousas early
this morning that the regulars were as-
cembllng at the Bellevlew bridge, three
miles south of town. At 10 o'clock ar-
rivals from the country reported that
2u0 men on horseback and armed with
Winchesters, shotguns and pistols wero
gathered there and were planning n
Invasion of the town. Upon the re-
port of this news, the combined people,
anti-regulars, began to assemble
around the court house square, armed
to the teeth and prepared to resist tho
invasion. The sheriff was in town
when the news first arrived, but he did
not attempt to go und disband the arm-
ed body of men. District Judge W. C.
Perrault rode out to the camp of the
regulators and endeavored by persua-
sion to get them to disband, but his tf
forts availed nothing.
This afternoon Dlomedes Durlo a lead
ing planter: C M. Thompson, clerk of
the district court, and live or six of
their friends wer# in front of Durio'i
house
"I was under a tree with my children
rear me," said Mr. Durlo. "Suddenly
thirty regulators, led by one Reed, pass-
ed my house They stopped behind a
clump of trees and I went out In tho
field to see what they were doing.
When near them they Ored six shots at
me. My friends came to my assistance
and we returned ten or twelve shots.
We then laid down and the regulators
fired fully fifty shots at us. shooting
my horse in two places Half of them
thsn ran away. The others remained
behind in a group and appeared to be
helping someone on a h<>rse. I don't
know whether we hurt any of them or
not. We sent word to town for rein-
forcements but when the boys came thj
regulators were ou tof sight."
Mr. Thompson corroborated Mr. Du-
rlo's story.
It Is rumored that two regulators
were shot and ons killed. At this hour
It Is impossible to verify the rumor.

Houston, April 21—The reform Repub-
licans (Illy whites) held their state con-
vention here today with McDanlel of
Houston, chairman, and W. O. North-
ern, secretary. All motions were adop-
ted unanimously. No presidential in-
structions were given, delegates being
prepared to treat •with whichever fac-
tion will give them recognition.
II. F. McGregor of Houston was elec-
ted state chairman and J. P. Newcom
of San Antonio secretary of the state
executive committee. The party is to
bs reorganized and after the St. Louis
convention a state ticket may be put
out. The following delegates-at-large
to St. Louis were chosen: H. F. Mc-
Gregor of Houston. L. F. Goodell of Ft.
Worth. W. L. Norton of Dallas and J.
B. Smitz of Denton. Alternates: L. F.
Mandy, W. C. Averlll, C. N. Love (col-
ored) and James Dixon (colored.)
Presidential electors are W. B. 81os-
son of Houston and F. P. Scott of Paris.
All are MclKnley men. Following are
the main features of the platform adop
ted:
"We favor bimetallism, the use of
gold and silver coin as money of ulti
mate redemption. We favor the imme
dlate calling of an international mone-
tary and reciprocity conference for the
adoption of an international agreement
with such reciprocal clauses as to trade
between countries that ratify the action
of the conference as will force every
country through self-interest to accept
the Ira sis thus established. We favor
changing the present basis of repreaen
tation in national conventions so that
cogr« ssioal districts that are ot repre-
sented by Republican congressmen at
the time the congressional convention
for the election of delegates Is called
shall not be entitled to elect but one del
egat* and one alternate. We believe In
the payment by this government of the
bounty to sugar producers and manu-
facturers as under the McKlnley act of
1890. to the end thst the production of
sugar may be atlmnWUed until oil tw*t
we consume is produced by our own
country We believe In a protective
tariff that will renew a market for
American wages for American work
men. We believe In a protictlve tariff
for Texas products, horses, cattle,
sheep and all raw material as well at
msnufactured products."
