A pitched battle occured in this city yest.rday between the two warring factions of the silver Republican party of this state, In which one man was killed and three wounded. The dead man is Charles S. Harris, an employ at Denver of the Gulf railroad. The wounded were spirited aw ay by their friends, and their indentity has not been definitely established. It is said that a man named Palmer was shot in the cheek, but not seriously injured. Another man had his haod shot nearly off and another got a flesh wound in the arm. The fight was w aged for possession of the opera house, io which the silver Republican state convention was to meet today. An armed guard faction, was in Chairman Broad, possession. who had been deposed by National Chairman Tuivne, sent an nrmed force to drive the guard out of the theatre. After a hot scrimmage, io which many shots were fired, the Tellerites fled in dismay. Harris and the men w ho were wounded are supposed to have been members of the attacking force. Chairman Blood, A. M. Stevenson and other leading silver Republicans openly charge Sheriff Boynton of this county and Internal Revenue Collector Frank Hubert of Denver with leading the attack. Sheriff Boynton states that he, Mr. Howbert and Chief of Police (iathright did not go to the opera house until the battle began, and then only to take possession of the place. Five men were arrested in the opera house, and one, it is claimed by tha police, hail a smoking Winchester in his hands. The prisoners are: Walter Russell, J. W. Lupton, J. J. Long, A. C. Smith, A. F. Monge, all of Cripple Creek. They are charged with the murder of Harr's, and informations were filed in tlie district court against them. A guard of twenty men, under Boynton and (Iathright, hold the opera house, and the Teller people are refused ail mission. In a published statement Chairman Blood intimated that I. X. Stevens, vice chairman of the National Silver e party during the last presidential campaign, and others arranged with a gang of thugs to come from Denver and assist in capturing the theatre. Mr. Stevens brands this statement as "ab solutely false," and says he knows nothing whatever about the opera house affair. WEYLER ATTACKS Madrid, Sept. 8. The chamber ha followed the senate in discussing th late war behind closed doors. The Republicans and Conservatives vehemently protest against this action and avow they will make public the proceedings, despite the fact that tha government imposes secrecy. In the senate General Weyler declared that the mistakes made in Cuba could not be blamed upon the army, but upon the politicians at the head of the government. The latter, he declared, w ere responsible for not sending supplies to the armies in Cuba and Porto Rio. and. indeed, for completely abandoning them. "The niiuisters of w ar and marine," he said, "ought to have resigned. Had the army been properly equipped, it weuld not have failed, It would have been better for Admiral Cervera's squadron to remain at the Canaries, for no practical end was served by sending the ships to Santiago." What measures did the government take to protect the the squadron, General Weyler ask hotly. The responsibilities for the surrender of Santiago rested wholly upon the government, instead of General Toral. FIGHTING AT CANDIA. On llcndreit llrltlub Soldiers Kllli-dsni- New York. Sept. 7.
