Drastic Failure of a Proposed SAnti-
War Demonstration In London.
London, Sept. 25.-The attempt to
hold pro-BOer, anti-war demOnstra-
ton in Trafalgar square, London, yes
terday afternoon, resulted in drastic
failure. Thousands assembled, but not
to support the speakers. On the con-
trary, the crowd waved Union Jacks
and sang the national anthem and
Rule Britannia" like mighty invoca-
lions.
The speakers, who were quite in
audible, were received with grOanS,
decaycd apples and eggs and other
missiles. There We're cheers for Mr..
Chamberlain, secretary OF state for
the colonies, and Kisses for President
Kruger. Some soldiers who were pres
ent were carried shoulder high by the
crowd.
There were several ugly rushes for
the platforms, which were surround
ed by opponents of the demonstration,
who yelled fierCely Finally the
mounted police We're telephoned for to
clear the square. Batons were freely
used, several persons were trodden
upon by horses and 80 arrests were
made.
The opponents of the meeting finally
proposed resolutions in support of the
governments policy, which were car
ried amid wild enthusiasm.
Last evening the promoters of the
demonstration held a meeting in pri-
vate and after long discussion car
ried the following resolution:
"In consequence Of the organized in
terruption Of the anti-war demonstra-
tion in Trafalgar square, fomented by
a section of the yellow and stock Job
bling press, this committee resolved to
hold public meeting in one of the
largest metropolitan halls at an early
date"

held yesterday to denounce those re-
sponsible for issuing circular recent
ly in which 1t was stated that b.

ADMIRAL wATSON's REPORT.

Apprentice Seriously wounded and
Con! Passer Frustrated by Heat.
Washington, Sept. 25.-Acting Sec
rotary Allen, of the navy department,
received cablegram from Rear Ad-
miral Watson yesterday giving BRIEF
account of the engagement at Subig
bay on Saturday. 1t says:
"Mandora discovered heavy gun
mounted opposite Kalaklan Point,
Bubig bay; exchanged shots with
Charleston. Sent Charleston, Monte
rey, Concord and Zafiro, with detach-
ment OF marines and sailors from Bal
timore, to capture and destroy. At

seriously wounded; Charles Haffke,
coal passer, Concord, heat prostration.
lnsurgent fire heavy, but poorly aimed.
Enemy's loss unknown"
The important feature of the en-
gagcmcnt is the fact which is dis
closed that the insurgents have been
able TO obtain a Krupp gun. II was
known at the time of the outbreak Of
the insurgents against the Americans
that the artillery of the insurgents
consisted Of few obsolete guns cap
tured from the Spaniards. Acting
Secretary Allen says that it Is evil
dent the navy at Manila does not in
tend to allow any fort to be erected
by the insurgents which can be reach
ed by the ships, and he is convinced
that the squadron under Rear Admiral
Watson Will be able to keep the shores
guarded and repeat the lesson of Sat
urday II the insurgents are found to
be operating on the coast.

No Canadians in Dewey Reception.

Toronto, Sept. 25.-An Ottawa special
says: The Forty-eighth Highlanders, of
Toronto, will not be granted permits
sion to visit New York to take part In
the reception to Admiral Dewey. The
view held is that Admiral Dewey is to
be the central figure In the New York
celebration, yet after all the demon
stration will really be gloriflcation of
the United States Victories in the Span
ish war. Under the circumstances,
therefore, 1t is considered very unpo-
lite for British regiment to partici-
pate. Tho pipe band Of the Royal
Scots Of Montreal has also been re-
fused permission to take part in the
proposed demonstration,

DIR. J. c. FAHEY's boom for Gov
ernor of Delaware has been launch
ed. When his name was first men-
toned for Mayor some five years
ago, he had a hesitancy In allowing
its use. He ran and was defeated
by Henry c. McLear by some 800
votes. There was then only two
tickets in the field and Mayor Nc
Lear received the full Republican
party vote. Since his election as
Mayor, the Doctors many friends
in the city have urged him to run
for Governor. He has been looking
over the field and the outlook is
such that he will in all probability
allow his name to go before the
Democratic Convention which meets
next year in Dover. According to
the usages of the party. this is
New Castle county's turn for Gov
ernor and many of Mayor Fahey's
friends in the city think he would
have as good chance of being
elected if he received the nominal
as any other man put up by the
Democrats. From the present APP
pearance there will be just such
another split in the Republican
party as there was when DR.. Fahey
was elected Mayor at the last cleo
ton. With two candidates for gov
ernor in the field on the Republican
ticket, most nybody the Democrats
put up and backed would be elected.
