KILLED AT THE POLLS.
A Watcher Foully Murdered by . Tough
Gang at Chicago.


Chicago, Nov. 1O.-The murder Of
Gus Coliander. the young Swede who
was murdered by gang of toughs
while watching the counting of ballots
in the Ninth precinct of the Twenty
third ward last Tuesday, promises to
develop into a celebrated case.
Indignation meetings were held III
nearly every ward on the north side
last night to protest against the cleo
ton outrages and to pledge united ac-
ton in avenging the death Of brave
Gus Coliander, who died in the defense
Of the ballot. In each meeting resolu-
tons condemning the brutal murder
and assaults and the men in Office who
are responsible for them, were adopted
Fervid speeches demanding retribu,.on
both in the courts and at the polls were
made and applauded by Republicans
and Democrats alike, regardless of
past party strife or affiliation.
The facts brought to light by the po-
lice drag-net indicate more conclusive
ly than ever that the Market street
gang, otherwise known as the "O'Mal-
ley" gang, had formed deliberate plot
not only to seize the ballot boxes Of
several precincts by main force, but to
kill the judges and clerks If necessary.
1t is known that the members Of the
gang, all of whom have more or less
unsavory records, held a number Of
meetings in the rear of a Market street
saloon and that their plans were only
less perfect than those of the Cronin
murderers.
The civic federation has already gone
vigorously into the work of prosecuting
the gang. 1t began to collect its evil
dence yesterday, and no effort will be
spared to convict those who are guilty.

TO SETTLE THE WAR.
THE PRESIDENT AS MEDIATOR.
Our Government Suggests Peaceable
Settlement Of tho War to Avoid tho
Forclblo Intervention of European
Powers.

Toxic Nov. 11.-United States Min
lister Dun has communicated to the
ministry the substance of an important
cipher cable proposition received from
Secretary Gresham at Washington. 1t
suggests that If Japan will join in re-
questing the President of the United
States to act as mediator in settling
the war he will exercise his good Of
fees in that capacity. A similar propo-
sition has been sent to China.
The cable was received by Minister
Dun ON Friday and was presented at
a special meeting of the ministry. An
answer has not yet been sent The
proposition presents a grave question
to the ministry. They are urged on
one hand by the popular sentiment to
continue the war and crush China. On
the other hand European powers are
threatening to intervene. AS between
these conflicting influences the minis
try find great difficulty in reaching a
decision on the American proposition,
but the prospect Is that it will be ac-
cepted.
1t Is learned that four days ago
France made a proposition to the Unit
ed States to intervene.
Washington, Nov. lit is the belief
here that China will readily accept
the mediation Of the United States and
that Japan will do so after she is as
sured of proper indemnity from China.
1t Is not likely that Japan will accept
the mediation unless 800, 900 600 is Of
fered. This will about represent what
Japan has actually spent In the war.
This is roughly figured as follows:
Japan had a reserve fund Of $25 ,0OO,-
600 on hand when the war began. This
has been spent. Then she negotiated a
war loan Of 5O,OOO,OOO yen "a yen be-
ing about equal to our dollar). This
makes $75.OOO,OOO actually used in the
war. Besides this Japnaese citizens
have contributed large sums and the
government has incurred other large
obligations.
The cable disclosure from Toxic that
France made a proposition to the
United States four days ago adds a
new feature to the case here. 1t Is
said European powers were urging
forcible intervention and this had been
largely instrumental in inducing the
United States to suggest mediation
without force. 1t Is understood that
the French proposition has been reject
ed. The situation, therefore, presents
an interesting game Of international
diplomacy. On one hand the great
powers of Europe are threatening to
forcibly come between China and ia
pan, while on the other hand the Unit
ed States offers to come between them
rs a peacemaker. AS between the
two propositions it Is not doubted that
the two contending powers will look
10 the United States.

Speech of Premier Rosebery At Lord
Mayors Banquet.
London, Nov. 10.-In accordance with
custom the new lord mayor of London,
Sir Joseph Renalas, gave banquet at
the Guild hall last night. The speaker
was Lord Rosebery. He said:
1--WE are determined to maintain a
strict neutrality, but on the other hand
we cannot forget we have shown a
striking and tangible proof Of friend
ship with Japan by our recent treaty,
while we have shown friendship to
China, in attempting to secure peace.
We acted thoroughly in accord with
Russia. We would still be glad to join
in any pacific measure to secure Il
peace honorable to Japan and not
disastrous to China. The newspapers
have been advising the government to
secure the opportunity now offered to
enter into a cordial entente with Rus
ready anticipated. Cheers. Since the
governments relation with Russia
have been more cordial than I ever
remember. The frontier difficulties in
Asia, which l hope are almost the last
Of dangerous question between us,
are now nearly terminated.
1.-THE removal Of this cause Of Anglo
Russian distrust will be q great step
toward universal peace"
There were at present three ele-
ments endangering the worlds peace:
enormous ornaments, the press and
armed explorations. He did not be-
lieve that the newspapers in their
fierce competition sufficiently weighed
the effect Of their intelligence. 1t had
been twice announced in the newspa-
pers that New Zealand desired or in
tended to administer the government
Of Samoa. The British government did
not think 1t necessary to contradict
such absurd rumors though they could
not fail to prejudically affect the pow
ers with which Great Britain was CO.
operating in Samoa.
"Our foreign policy" he continued,
"is distinctly conservative. We cOvet
nothing abroad and only want to main
tain the status quo"

A REPORT of the insanity of Queen

A REPORT of the insanity Of Queen
Liliuokalani of late obtained some
slight circulation, but 1t has not been
verified, and what are called her
faculties are, doubtless, much as they
were before her deposition. The
Sandwich island intellect at large is
not Of the highest order, not oven
that OF Its sovereign, and the shock
OF losing her throne may well have
disturbed for the time being the men
tai equipoise Of her dusky island
majesty. But she ought to be com
forted and restored by the conscious
ness that neither her throne, crown
nor sceptre was ever worth the having,
being always at the mercy of foreign
intrigue or domestic violence, and she
is much better off without them.

Tacoma, WASH, Nov.11.-William G.
Norris, who went to Japan a year ago

largest contracts ever awarded Ameri-

other Is a $35O,0OO contract for cast
iron pipe to be used in extending the
Toxic water works. The pipe will be
made in Alabama and sent here for
shipment, the American firm having
met the competition Of English,
French and Belgian bidders. The CON-
pany which Mr.. Norris represents was
organized just after the Worlds Fair

Washington, Nov. 1O.-Senator Cam

story which states that he has CORE
sponded with the projectors of the new

and is in hearty sympathy with the

Il have had no such correspondence
as to silver party, or anything in

I am Republican, although l am a
Republican who believes thoroughly
in silver"
General Warner, president of the
Bimetallic league, is expected here
next week with some information on
the Western movement for a silver
party.
Gordon Clark, acting secretary Of
the league, says that the statement
from Denver is probably correct A
meeting will be held at an early day,
Mr.. Clark says, but the time and place
have not yet been determined. AS to
the details of the movement, Mr.. Clark
Is not Informed. He says, however,
that silver party will undoubtedly
be formed by the force of circum-
stances. Thus far the Populists have
given greatest encouragement to silver
and Notwithstanding recent reports to
the contrary, Mr., Clark says the Popu-
lists are stronger than ever as a factor
to assist silver. Their total vote reach
ed 100000 and they will hold the bal
ance of power in the Senate after
March next. A balance Of power in
the Senate means a balance of power
in Congress and in all national legis-
lation.
Senator Stewart Of Nevada said: II
have no Information regarding the
movement and Of course had no CORE
spondence on the subject. I have no
doubt, however, that there will be a
conference Of the leading men from all
sections who are opposed to the gold
policy of the Republican party and
Cleveland Democracy, and that they
will act together, but the nucleus Of
any movement must be those two mil
lion votes cast last Tuesday against
