kNGL0-SAXON ENTENTE
ON CHINESE QUESTION

NEW YORK, Nov 5-The Journals
Washington correspondent says: The al
lance between Great Britain and the
United States as to the Chinese question
has at last assumed concrete form. The
State Department has sought to create
the impression that not even an under
standing has been reached, but on Sat
urday no effort to disguise the fact was
made.
The United States and Great Britain
will forcibly resist any aggression made
by European powers in China.
Secretary Hay sent for Rear Admiral
Crowninshield, chief of the Bureau of
Navigation, and the two conferred for a.
half hour. Secretary Hay, 1t is under
stood, wanted to ascertain, first, when
the last of the reinforcements for the As
iatic fleet already ordered would reach
Asiatic waters; second, what other yes
sells would be available for duty in the
Orient in the event of an emergency re-
quiring further reinforcements
Rear Admiral Crowninshield replied
that the Brooklyn, now at Port Said
would reach its destination in less than
three weeks; the New Orleans. at Porto
del Gado, in five weeks; the Marietta
nearing Gibraltar, in four weeks: the
Nashville, at Gibraltar, about the same
time; the Newark, at Honolulu, in less
than three weeks.
In answer to the second question. It IS
understood Crowninshield replied the yes

CROKER IS CONFIDENT.
Claims a Large Democratic Plurality
for New York County.

NEW YORK. Nov. 5.-Richard Croker
Gays that the Tammany district leaders
are increasing their estimates of the
Democratic majorities. He claims 5O0,J.
or more plurality in New York County.
The Republicans claim a small plurality
on the county ticket. In the campaign
the alleged purpose of the Republicans to
amend the New York charter so 5 to give
Albany more power over affairs in this
city has been taken up by Tammany,
which expects tC win several districts in
this city with the home rule cry. The
general opinion is that the Democrats
viii gain half a dozen seats. Except for
the efforts of the independent labor men,
the fusion county campaign has Jagged,
the bad blood engendered by the fights be-
tween Republicans and Citizens Union in
the Assembly districts having reacted on
the county ticket. In the Nineteenth AS
sembly District where Robert Mazet (R.)
IS up for reelection. Tammany has made
one Of the hottest campaigns ever waged

EXPEDITION SENT TO
SURROUND AGUINALDO
Troops Moving From Three Direc=
tiOnS for the Attack on the
Filipino Capital.

"A M ANILA, Nov. 5-This evening
IL III fleet of transports and gunboats
1N left Manila for the most impor
wi tant expedition of the autumn
49, campaign It's destination is sup
posed to be Dagupan or some other north
ern port.
General Wheaton commands, with
brigade consisting of the Thirteenth In
fantry, the Thirty-third Infantry, two
guns of the Sixth Artillery and two Cat
lings The transports Sheridan, Francisco
de Reyes and Aztec carry the troops, with
the gunboat Helena as escort.
A dispatch boat was sent ahead to ar
range a rendezvous with the United
warships that are patrolling the north
coast of LuZon.
1t is assumed here that the purpose of
the expedition is to move down the Dagu-
pan-Manila Railroad toward Tarlac, or to
prevent Aguinaldo's forces making anoth-
er base farther north. Dagupan and APP
parri are the Strongholds of the insur-
gents in the north.
1t has been the unanimous opinion of
military experts that Dagupan should be
made the base of operations, but sufficient
troops have heretofore been lacking. With
Generals Wheaton, Macarthur and Law
ton moving upon Tarlac from three direc-
tions and the mountains hemming in the
other side, the insurgents capital will
soon become untenabie Aguinaldo may
attempt to shift his headquarters to the
rich tobacco country at the northern end
of the island. 1t will be difficult for the
insurgents to escape.
Should the concerted operations succeed,
organized insurrection on a large scale
should be at an end early next spring, all
though guerrilla warfare is likely to con-
tinue for long time. No one anticipates
that the insurgents will make many hard

SHARKEY Is ANXIOUS
FOR ANOTHER FIGHT
Defeated Pugilist Is Still Suffering
From the Effects of JEFF
frieS' RlOwS

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-Thomas Sharkey,
in pain and encased in plaster support,
spent to-day quietly in his quarters He
was constantly attended by his physi
clans, who ordered him to be absolutely
quiet. The defeated pugilist was restive
and uncomfortable till sleeping powder
had been administered. Then he fell into
a deep sleep, which lasted all afternoon.
The burden of Sharkey's talk was that
he wanted to meet Jeffries again. The
champion, on the other hand, while de-
ciaring that he was in the hands of his
managers, asserted his willingness to
grant the sailor his desire. though he did
not see why he should be expected to
do so.
But, you know" he said there is
such thing as being driven to a fight"
Sharkey said that he wanted another
post $4,000 forfeit. tomorrow. o Rourke.
his manager, said he was doing his best
to bring the match about.
Tomorrow morning early" ORourke
said, II am going to post with George
Considine a $4,000 forfeit to get a return
match with Jeffries. 1t will be a bet as
all right and can fight at the end Of eight
weeks. l think, however, that the period
is too short and | will name four months
as the time. l do not know whether JEFF
fries and his manager will cover this or
not, but we will leave it to the general
public to decide how just our position is.
Jeffries owes it to Sharkey and the public
to give us another match. We are in
earnest about this. Sharkey feels he Is
the better man and he ought to have
fair chance to prove It,.
Brady said. when asked about a return
match: What have determined is this:
Jeffries needs rest. He would have
knocked Sharkey clean out early in the
fight il he had been recovered from his
fight with Fitzsimmons. He has licked
August before Jeffries has another fight.
and my impressions are that it will take
place in Paris"

Warm Time Expected at the Election

LOUISVILLE. Nov. 5.-Ante-election
interest was heightened tonight Dy a re-
port from Frankfort containing a hint of
some action on the part of United States
Marshal A B. James in connection with

BATTLE ROYAL I'M
THE SAN RAFAEL JAIL
Five British" Officers Held at Bay
by a "Boer" Man and
Woman

SAN RAFAEL, Nov. 5.-"Wow, They
are the British and we the Beers. Give
it to them, Mike" With these martial
words of encouragement, Mary Cuneo,
woman whose name is known in every
Police Court in San Francisco rushed to
the assistance of a drunken laborer
named Michael Murello, in the County
Jail tonight, and swatted Constable
Agnew viciously over the head with
piece of board Murello swung a chair
with equal effect. and In minutes time
the two Beers, male and female, had driv-
en- five stalwart officers OF the law into
an outer room and laagered themselves
near a stairway. 1t took thirty minutes
ritory, during which time the County Jail
witnessed what was perhaps the most eX-
citing scene in its history.
Murello was arrested tonight in the
divorced wife and ejecting her from the
premises, with threat that he would
take her life. simultaneously the. Cuneo
woman was arrested at the broad-guage
depot for disturbing the peace. The
woman reached the prison first, and when
Murello was led in, kicking, biting and
cursing, she gave her war cry and led
him on to temporary victory against the
officers
During the melee. Jailkeeper George
a piece of coal. which he had lodged in
the nick of time. and Marshal Healy
closed a door none too soon to avoid a
heavy billet of wood. Threats and coax
ing were of no avail, and the drunken
man and woman had too much ammu-
milton in stock in the shape of broken
chairs, pieces of coal and other missiles
to risk a direct attack. Strategy prevailed
at the expiration of half hour. An
armored train was formed of an old door
and two constables, and while the atten-
ton of the Beers was detracted by a
skirmish from the rear, the constables
held the door before them and rushed
the two frenzed prisoners. They were
overpowered and placed in cells, while the
officials adjourned for refreshments.

SULU GROUP WORTHLESS

Workmen Withdrawn Just After She

TACOMA, Nov 5.-The transport Nor

ers dispatched from a Japanese dock
company at Nagasaki. The work was
nearly finished when dispute arose
between the dock company and repre-
sentatives of the ship owners, causing
withdrawal of the workmen. The fol-
lowing week hard storm arose and the
vessel sank so that the water rose above
her masts. There is little probability
of raising her. The dispute was regard

FOSTER PREDICTS THE
DEFEAT OF MCLEAN
Money and Expansion Questions a
Disturbing Influence in Ohio
Politics.

~ INCINNATI. Nov. 5.-The most
significant development in the Ohio
campaign since yesterday is the
~ prediction made by Ex-Governor
Charles Foster, who has been speak
ing throughout the State. He estimates
the total vote of the State at 975, 900, Of
which Nash (R) will get not less than
465 600, Mclean CD not more than 40 900,
and Jones (Non-Partisan) and all others
will divide the remainder. Yet Mr.. Foster
said there was a strong probability that
Jones would cut down this estimate on
the leading candidates, but If he did three
fourths of the cutting would be on the
Mclean vote. Mr.. Foster predicts that
the Republicans VIII secure both houses
of the Legislature.
A peculiar feature OF the campaign has
been the use by both parties Of utterances
Of ex-senator Iohn Sherman. Senator
Sherman has a warm feeling for Judge
Nash, and the Republican papers have
published kilograms from him showing
that feeling. One printed to-day, ad-
dressed TO Chairman Dick Of the Repub
ncan State Committee, says:
I feel the deepest solicitude for the cleo
ton of Judge Nash. 1t will mean victory
for sound money and prosperity
1t is also well known that Mr.. Sherman
has a cordial feeling for President Nc
kinley and Senator Hanna and that he
openly antagonizes the Presidents Phil
ippine policy. Hence the Democratic pa
pers have been publishing interviews and
dispatches from ex-senator Sherman indi
eating his position in that regard. One
of the latter addressed to9the editor of an
Ohio Democratic paper contained the fol-
lowing:
II am strongly opposed to the enforced
annexation of the Philippine Islands. The
seizure Of any part of the Philippines
against their will is an aggressive viola
ton of the law of nations
It IS claimed by Republicans that the
alienation Of Republicans who disagree
with the administration on the Philippine
question will be more than offset by the
Democrats who believe in upholding the
Government and who oppose silver.
