Oct. T. The total results of last night's rioting were fifteen ae-rlously wounded, of whom ten received Jiullet wounds, two having since died, while the injuries of the rest were bruises inflicted by canes and stones. There Is no foundation for reports tkat women were shot. The rioting did not last over fifteen minutes.

The Government had been forewarned of the likelihood of trouble and itsfloned rural guards where they could be called upon in case the police were unable to cope with the situation. The rurals put down the trouble almost The rioting predicted to-day did not develop. Two or three unimportant clashes occurred this afternoon, one between medical students, when two were injured. F.r ports that President Gomez was eotisidpring his resignation are viewed ts ridiculous. The Government is confident that the disorders will not bo repeated.

Havana la quiet tonight, but there la a strong undercurrent of excitement and dread of a repetition ef the bloody scenea of last night, when a brisk battle between Conservatives and Liberals took place in Central Park at the close of a held by the po lltlcal supporters of Alfred Zayas, a candidate for the Presidency of the republic.

The cavalry guard was withdraws from Central Park to-day and replaced by a strong force of police, who would not permit any gatherings in (roups. The partisan newspapers are Indulging In furious recriminations and threats and both sides are declaring It to be their dftrmlnaUon to appeal to force If their rights are aot protected. Each side is alleging that favoritism la being shown their opponents by the Government in last night's battle between Conservatives and Liberals several hundred snots were Bred. The outdoor mass meeting of Zayaa'a supporters, to which the fight waa a sequel, was conducted peacefully until the tost speaker ascended the platform, whea a number of shots were fired, apparently by a group of ConJeiatlve gathered front of a hotel. Instantly therow-d began to disperse and the fusillade became general, eitendlng across Central Park and down the Prado.

For ten minutes the to reeemblethe rattle of machine guns. Strong forces of mounted police and cavalry charged repeatedly with drawn machetes and fired revolvers. The mob returned the fire from the porches of the houses.

The attempt of the polios matrons to add S400 a year to their salaries on the strength of an act of the Legislature waa defeated by the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court yesterday.

The law which fixed the salaries of polloe ma trons declared they should get the same salaries as doormen. 11.000 a year. At the lest session, the) doormen got through the Legislature a bill which abolished their rank and made patrolmen of them. Those who had been a certain number of rears In the eervioo lmmill.tl tha highest salary paJd to patrolmen. 11.400 a year.

In dismissing her plea, reversing the lower court, the Appellate Division said: The salary of doorman, although the position has been abolished, is still reserved In the City Charter and this Is he only thing which entltlee him to any salary at all. The charter provides that a police matron shall receive the same salary aa a doorman, set that of a patrol-tnaa. Unleee this Is still in force, there la no Btatnto Which antltlM a. matmn tn saiary.
