AN OPEN DOOR PETITION.
Forty five Southern Cotton Mill Operator
Oppose Russian Aggressions.

Forty-five Southern Cotton Mill Operators
Oppose Russian Aggressions.
New YORK, Nov. 11.-Forty-fve cot
ton mill owners in the South, fearing
that the recent war will seriously
change the trade conditions between
this country and China, have prepared
petition which they are sending to
Secretary of State Hay. They fear
that Russia will obtain possession of
Manchuria and will impose such heavy
duties on American goods as to render
withdrawal of American interests
from that country necessary.
The petition expresses approval of the
'open door" policy and expresses the
hope that the administration will take
such action as it may deem proper to
maintain the protection and perpetuity
of the existing commercial relations
with China, especially as regards Man
churia.
This petition is signed by eighteen
mill owners in North Carolina, twenty
one in South Carolina, four in Alabama,
one in Georgia and one in Maryland.
The total capital invested in their mills
is s14, 1864, 500. The total number of
looms is 1,OS9, and the total number of
spindles is 1,O72, ,654.

Candidates for the Presidency Who
Have Been Neglected by the

GENE DEBS LED THEM ALL IN CHlCAGO.
The PrOhibItiOnists Have Made
Gains, Having POIled a Vote in

MilIiOn-Nebraska Definitely
Landed in the Republican Column.

Chicago, Nov. 1O.-Besides McKiIt-
ley and Bryan there were five other
men in the field with aspirations to
the Office of president of the United
States.
In Chicago alone, Eugene V. Debs,
as head of the social democratic tick
ct, led the other minor candidates by
total vote of 5.022. John G. Woolley,
the prohibition candidate, followed
second, with a vote of 1885, while the
socialist labor party, with Joseph F.
Maloney, received 295; Wharton Bar
ker, for the peoples party, 109, and
Seth H. Ellis, of the Union Reform
for Direct Legislation" party, found
so scattered votes.
At the national prohibition head
quarters it is estimated that the to-
tai vote in the nation would exceed
100000. This estimate was based upon
the receipt of about 400 kilograms re-
ceived from 20 states. This is more
than three times the vote cast for
lowering in 1896.
John G. Woolley anticipates vote
approaching 100000, basing his claims
upon the country precincts which are
yet to report. Indiana, Ohio, Michi-
gan, New York and Pennsylvania are
thought to have po1led a prohibition
vote fully four times as large as in
1896. Illinois is estimated at nearly
three times the vote of 1896, or 27,-
600.

A FLAG FIGHT

In New Westminster, b. c., Between
French-Canadians and Britishers.
VANCOUVER, B. c., Nov. 11.-Bitter
racial feeling between some French
Canadians and Britishers eliminated
in a flag incident in the neighboring
city of New Westminster, where seri-
GUS consequences were only averted by
the prompt action of the authorities.
On the new stone postoffice building in
process of construction are employed a
number of French-Canadians brought
thither for that work from Quebec.
They were given Saturday half-holi-
day and hoisted the union jack and the
French tri-color on the same pole. The
flag was removed surreptitiously and
when the French ensign was discovered
floating alone over the government
building a crowd of Engligh gath
cred to pull it down. The French
Canadians defended their flag and
hand-to-hand fight ensued. The au-
thorities stopped the fight by pulling
down the offending flag. The occur
renee has caused intense feeling be-
tween representatives of the two ma
tionalitieS.

Secret Sessions of Madrid Congress-Hos-
tility to United States Disclaimed.
MADRID, Nov. 1.-THE secret sessions
of the Spanish-American congress will
begin tomorrow. They will be devoted
to study of various propositions for
the improvement of commercial rela-
tions between Spain and Latin-America.
The press today warmly welcomes
the delegates in language which is cir
cumspect, showing no hostility toward
the United States, but upholding the
necessity of the unity of the Latin
American family in America.
At yesterdays session of the congress,
Senior Sierra, the delegate from Mexico,
emphatically disclaimed the idea that
there was any incompatibility between
the present congress and the one that
would be held in Mexico in October of
next year for the purpose of discuss
ing customs duties among all the
American nations. He expressed the
hope that the two congresses would re-
suit in benefit not only to all the ma
tions in the Western Hemisphere, but
to all humanity as well, adding that
universal blessings would follow if
compulsory arbitration for differences
between nations should result.

DYING OF STARVATION.
Indians in the Cook Inlet Section Perish
ing, According to Mrs. james Smith.

Indians in the Cook Inlet Section Perishs
ing, According to MRS. james Smith.
TACOMA, Wash, Nov. 11.-Mrs. James
Smith, just returned from Cooks Inlet,
Alaska, says that fully half of the thou
sand Indians in that section, compris.
Ing five tribes, are slowly dying of STAR
vation. The influx of white prospectors
has resulted in the killing off of much
game, and the Indians are thus deprived
of food and of furs for clothing. They
dried salmon last summer, but not
enough to go round, and winter finds
400 to 600 of them without enough food
to last until December. Mrs. Smith,
who is wealthy miners wife, divided
her stock of provisions with the desti-
tute Indians, and now appeals for fur
ther aid. Most of these Indians belong
to the Russian Church, but it is power
less to help them. Unless provisions
are sent in by steamer at once, she says,
hundreds will surely die. While living
at Grady's Harbor, eight years ago, Mrs.
Smith, then Mrs. Martha White, swan
into the surf and rescued three ship
wrecked sailors from drowning, for
which congress voted her medal.

OUR NAVAL WEAKNESS
Naval Academy Suffering for Want
Of Instructors.
More Onhcers Arc Needed-Attentiol
Called to Deterioration in Physical
Qualifications of Annapo-
lis Graduates.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE startling
statement is made in the report of Ad-
miral Crowninshield, chief of the navi-
cation bureau, that the present per-
sonnel of the navy would form barely
one-fourth of the total establishment
to fight frst-class European power.
1t barely sufficed for the Spanish war,
and no longer can be considered, the
report says, as an effective nucleus
about which larger establishment
could be formed in case of war. The
admiral says that the bureau can point
to many cases where the service is be-
ing harmed by lack of officers. The
Naval Academy is suffering for want
of instructors and the present high
standard of training cannot be main
tanned. Every bureau in the depart
ment is short of officers, and the report
predicts, soon will fall behind in the
struggle-frst, for leadership, and then
for equality with the other services.
The disability of the seagoing corps OF
officers has greatly increased since the
Spanish war, and many of the best Of
ficers are being lost as result of break
ing down from overwork. The per-
sopnel act thus far has resulted in
affording less officers than were on the
active list before its passage, and while
authorizing an increase. it failed to
provide the means therefor, so there
now are 131 vacancies in the list of
naval officers. Therefore, it is recon-
mended for the next ten years that ap-
pointments to the Naval Academy be
doubled, the president and representa-
tives in congress appointing two instead
of one wherever authorized now, and,
same privilege of appointment as repre-
sentatives. Then to meet future needs,
it is recommended that whenever con-
grees authorizes an increase of vessels
to the navy it shall also provide for an
increase of officers and men to man the
ships.
The training system as now practiced
in the navy is commended, and it is de-
clared that by no other means could
the navy secure the sailors necessary to
man the fleet.
Admiral Crowninshield regards it as
most important, commercially, that we
keep fair representation on the South
Atlantic station, saying that at no part
of the world are our vessels more cor
daily received and nowhere can be
traced direct benefits to trade more
clearly than on this station.
There were 2,452 desertions from the
navy and eighty-six deaths during the
past fiscal year. The enlistments num-
Der s, 1913, from total number of ap-
plicants of 40, S54. Over 68 per cent. of
the men in the navy are native born,
10 per cent. are naturalized, and per
cent. have declared intentions.
Touching upon the Naval Academy,
it is earnestly urged that no physical
disqualifcations for cadets shall be
waived hereafter, as there has been
marked deterioration in the past ten
years in the physical condition of the
graduating cadets, owing to their
abandonment of the vigorous tweed
ing" process, which has now fallen into
diSuSe.

"Jim Crow, Car Case.

The case of Joseph Smith against the
State of Tennessee, known as the "Jim
Crow car case, was disposed of last
week in the United States Supreme
Court. The case was dismissed on stip-
ulation of counsel and the costs assessed
against Smith. The case reached the
Supreme Court on appeal from decis-
ion of the Tennessee courts, by which
Smith, who had been conductor on
the Louisville G5 Nashville, was fined
s. for permitting negroes to ride in the
compartment of the railway coaches
reserved for the whites. Smith con-
tended that the negroes were through
passengers. and that the case being one
of interstate travel, he had no right to
move them. The whole court agreed
to the motion for dismissal, and a man
date was issued to the State court.

Checking the Exodus.

During the past few weeks parties
representing the Kali-Inla Company of
the Indian Territory have been secretly
at work securing laborers from this
State to take the places of strikers in
the mines of the company in the West,
with the result that more than 100 OF
the skilled miners of the Dayton Coal
and Iron Company have migrated to
the Indian Territory. The matter was
taken into the United States court in
Chattanooga and temporary restrain
ing order issued against Thomas Hay
wood, colored, the agent of the Kali
Inla Company and Cincinnati Southern
Railway Company, which has been
furnishing transportation to the miners.
The complainant is the Dayton Coal
and Iron Company.

Lexington, KY, Nov. 9.-The can
vassing of the returns of Tuesdays
election is likely to cause trouble in
various ways. The county clerk neg
elected to furnish to election officers
duplicate forms for certifying the re-
turns. Thus it happens that in several
precincts the only official certificate
of the vote is locked up in the ballot
boxes, which, under the law, can not
be opened for six months. 1t is pos
sible the whole vote of the county
may be affected. A mandamus has
been granted directing the opening of
one of the boxes. The board of cleo
tion commissioners meets to convass
the vote to-day.

Louisville, Ky, Nov. 9.-Democratic

to alter their claims, the democrats
placing Beckham's plurality close to
5000 and their republicans pinning
their faith on the official count, which
