THE FASH0DA INCIDENT
France Il More Inflamed and
More Defiant.
A REMARKABLE CHANGE
Brought About by the Tone OF the
British Press and the Threats OF
Sir Michael Hicks-Beach.
VIII Retain Fashoda.

Paris. Oct. IA remarkable change
has come over French opinion on the
Fashoda question during the past IS
hours. The attitude of the public is
more infiamed and more defiant. This
Is partly due to the tone of the British
press. but more to the threatening spir-
1t Of the British chancellor of the ex-
chequer, Sir Michael Hicks-Beach.
which the Autorite calls "a provocatiop
that Is almost threat of war" The
municipal council Of Paris Is abused on
all sides for exhorting the government
TO avert war. In government circles the
disposition seems to be to resist the
British demands. 1t is reported that
the policy OF France, as definitely stat
ed to Great Britain, includes the re-
tention of Fashoda.

No Unreasonable Delay.

London. Oct. 21.-Government circles
here are apparently satisfied that the
Fashoda question will not lead to war.
At the same time the determination is
reiterated not to bulge from the posi-
tion which has been taken, no matter
what the outcome may be.
IL Is said on good authority that the
government has also determined not to
brook unreasonable delay. and that in
the event of France declining to evac-
uate Fashoda, the Marchand party will
be removed from that place, although it
is not expected that IL will be necessary
to resort to such extremes

Indianapolis Oct. 21-McKinley was in
the city two hours to-day. He arrived at

an immense crowd of strangers and all
of the city itself seems to have turned

around three sides of which the presiden-
tial party passed I'm procession. The presi-
Dental party disembarked at Washington
and Noble streets. on the eastern side of
the city, entered open carriages and drove
to the capitol grounds. where Mckinley
spoke in part as follows:
Fellow Citizens: We are here to-day
because we love the old flag (applause);

IL means more at this hour than IL ever

. ITS BROAD MERITS.


Montreal. Oct. 21.-vice President
Shaughnessey OF the Canadian Pacific
to-day issued a statement relative to
the recent decision of the arbitration at
Chicago as to that roads right to trans
continental differentials. In which he
says:
The arbitrators seem to have rem
dered n decision adverse to the Cana
dian Pacific, but we are advised that
the decision is based entirely upon
technical construction of the language
OF the resolution that purported to de-
scribe the question which was to be
left to arbitration. That resolution,
after reciting certain provisions. reads
that the lines here represented will
submit to arbitration, whether the
Canadian Pacific is or should be enti-
tied to a differential under the rates
made by the United States lines for
the carrying OF freight i'm question.
IL appears that the arbitrators held
that under this language the only ques-
tion they could try was whether the
Canadian Pacific had an inherent title
to a differential and that IL could not
go into the question as to whether, un-
der existing conditions and in accord
ance with railway practice on this con-
tinent. the Vancouver route should be
conceded a differential. This COM
pany's traffic officers who attended the
Denver meeting, at which the resolu-
ton was passed, clearly understood
that IL contemplated a bona fide sub
mission to arbitration of the material
business question and not merely
technical pathological Interpretation of
the word entitled No sane man would
claim that the Canadian Pacific or any
particular road had an inherent right
to n differential
IF we are correctly informed as TO
the basis of the arbitrators' decision,
the question must be submitted again
in such form as to obtain a decision on
the broad merits"

PORTO RiCAN PROTEST.
The Colonial Omcials Have Been Retained
In Once.

Inc SoioniaI Omciais nave Been Retained
San Juan de Porto Rico. Oct. 21-
Considerable political excitement pre-
walls here. owing to the fact that the
colonial officials elected last March on
the autonomist platform are continued
by Major General Brooke in their re-
spective offices. Their political oppo-
nents suggest public demonstrations
against such continuance. Investiga-
tion by the American authorities, how
ever. has led to the conclusion that they
are all men of excellent standing and
their retention in office will be the best
way to preserve tranquility in the in
sular administration until such time as
the United States congress can take ac-
tion regarding Porto Rico.
The oath of allegiance to the United
states has been taken by five judges of
the superior court OF Porto Rico, who
later will administer the same oath to
their subordinates. The dissatisfaction
felt by Porto Ricans at the increase in
foreign postage Is widespread For
merly the rate was 5 cents. now IL is
10 in local money. Insular postage has
been increased from to 4 cents.
The percentage of the sick among
the American troops quartered at San
Juan barracks is very small
