FROM PRESIDENT
Annual Proclamation Names the
Date of the Fall HoIi-
day.

Washington. Nov. 2.-The president
has issued his annual Thanksgiving
proclamation, fixing the date of the
holiday for Nov. %. In his proclama-
ton, aftert the usual sentences of thank
fulness for good crops at home and
peace at home and abroad, the presi-
dent says:
t'In no other place and at no other
time has the experiment of government
of the people, by the people, for the peO-
pie been tried on so vast a scale as
here in our own country in the open
ing years of the twentieth century.
Failure would not only be a dreadful
thing for us, but Il dreadful thing for
all mankind, because it would mean
loss of all hope for all who believe in
the power and the righteousness of lib
erty.
Therefore, in thanking God for the
mercies extended to US in the past we
beseech Him that He may not with
hold them in the future, and that our
hearts may be reused to war stead
fastly for good and against all the
forces of evil, public and private"

AT LAW OVER SITE
OF A POWER DAM
Much Bad Feeling Engende red in
Contention Over in
Indiana.

Plymouth, Ind. Nov. "a case at
law that is the outcome of a mill dam
battle that was fought for forty years
is now being tried in the Marshall
circuit court The case refers to a
dam that was built in the Tippecanoe
river, near the old town of Tippeca-
noe. 1t was built in 1850. and in all
that time it has been the bone of con-
tentiOn among the people. In 1878 the
mill, to operate which the dam was
built, was burned by incendiaries. 1t
was rebuilt and again burned and the
dam blown out. Finally the owners
were afraid to rebuild and the balance
of the dam was allowed to wash out.
At one time the water overtiowed
1000 acres of land. and the ownership
of this land is now up for settlement
in the court. 1t is set up that the own
ers at no time obtained title in fee sim
pie to the land, and that with the re-
mOval of the dam the title to the land
reverted to the original owners and
their successors. 1t is related that in
the same county three brothers named
Zehner own mills in three different To-
calitieS, and for Yeas the three dams
that were built to afford power caused
litigation that has lasted for several
decades.

Cavalry Fails to Get Through and Infantry
FIanI1s the Strikers Position.
Reinforced by cavalry the troops
succeeded in driving the strikers over
the San Antonio bridge. The strikers,
however, erected barricades at the
center of the bridge and i'll front Of
a junction of two streets. These bar
ricades We're composed of pieces of iron
work from the bridge, overturned carts
and barrels filed with stones. The
miners behind the first barricade were
armed with picks and shOvels and q
few revolvers. The cavalry charged
across the bridge, but was unable to
pass the barricade there. Troops were
then sent to the right and the left of
the bridge to flank the miners and q
second charge was made.
The bridge barricade was held for
some moments, but the men there were
soon forced to fall back to the second
barricade This the soldiers also rem
dered untenable, and the miners re-
treated up the streets. carrying with
them some of their wounded, among
them were some women. 1t is said of
and twenty-one wounded during the
fighting. but more people were wound
ed than is given out officially.
When driven from the city the min
ers endeavored to blow up the reser-
vOir and the electric light plant with
dynamite. The troops were too quick
for them, however, and gained posses
sion of the dynamite factory before the
strikers could carry out their design.
By this time there were 10000 in
fantry, cavalry and artillerymen in the
city, as well as three guns.
The arrival of Lieutenant General
Zappino, commander-in-chie of the
Basque provinces, was followed by
conferences, which resulted in Il set
tlement. Had no agreement been
reached it is believed that even more
serious conditions would have ensued.
After the miners were driven out OF
the city they pillaged nearby farm
houses and held the countryside in
CONSERVATION. The strike was in no
sense against the government.

d fire that started in the House of

structure at 1926 Eleventh avenue,
and which the police ana ccroner be-
Heve to have been of incendiary origin.
Some of the peculiar features of the
disaster. i'll addition TO the starting loss

ly eXtiaguished in twenty minutes;
that the police could learn Of but one
person being injured, other than those
who lost their lives. and that the prop

represented being Ireland. Sarah

Halloween parties in the tenement and
the fire started in the cellar. attacking
Immediately the only stairway leading
from the upper stories. There were
plenty of fire escapes, however. and
the loss of life resulted from the panic
of the tenants, who struggled madly
TO be first at the escapes, thereby
blocking the way and resulting in their
being suffOcated as they fought for
the first place at the exits. The only
person injured was Mary Jane Quinn,

with His AK.

Pekin, Nov. "A conference of
high officials with the doyager EN-
press concerning the reoccupation of
Mukden by the Russian troops was
held at the summer palace today.
Yuan Ski Kai, governor general of
Chill province, was summoned hastily
from Tsin Tien and proceeded directly
to the palace The Russians have the
Tartar governor general of Mulden
province in custody in his yamen.
Peking, Nov 2-The Chinese gov
ernment is greatly disturbed at the re-
occupation of Mukden, the capital of
Manchuria, by Russian troops. The
foreign office is appealing to friendly
foreign legations for help and advice,
admitting its own helplessness in the
matter The Russians returned to Muk-
den on Thursday of last week. Ac-
cording to advices received by the
Chinese government 1900 Russian sol
diers took possession of the official
buildings there, barricaded the gates
and evicted the Chinese officials. There
are between 10000 and 10000 Chinese
troops in and about Mukden, but the
Chinese commanders in Manchuria
have been given imperative orders in
no wise to resist the Russian govern
ment. and to use every effort to avert
collisions.
All Sin Beheads a Brigand.
The circumstances leading to the re-
occupation of Mukden are as follows:
The Russians employed noted brig
and. who was accused of many crimes
against the Chinese, as chief of one of
the irregular bands of police they are
organizing in Manchuria. The Chi
nese authorities repeatedly requested
the surrender of this man, and the
Russians recently consented to give
him up. Thereupon a Chinese officer
decapitated the brigand without giving
him Il trial.
Russia Doesn't Lose Any Time.
When this became known the Rus
slams demanded the execution of this
officer within five days. giving as an
alternative the seizure of AIukden. The
Chinese foreign office was negotiating
with Paul LesSar, the Russian min
lister on the matter, and offered to ban
ish the officer in question. pleading
that he had exceeded his instructions,
and to remove the taotai, his superior,
from office. There was a misunder-
standing as to the time limit set For
these negotiations; the Chinese thought
it expired Saturday. Before the negO-
tiations were completed the news was
received here that Russia had fulfilled
her threat to reoccupy Mukden.

FIRE DAMAGES

Marred-Cify I4iremen
Assist.

Rome, Nov. 2.-Fire starting at $50
o'clock last night in that portion of
the vatican containing the hall of
inscriptions, where the pope gives his
audience and which is adjacent to the
famous pinacoteca, or gallery of
pictures, caused considerable damage
and much excitement. Great efforts
were made by the vatican forces to
control the flames and the firemen of
Rome were called to lend help. No
lives were lost. Pope Plus X. came to
the scene in person and remained un-
til the arrangements to fight the fire
were completed.
The fire caused greater sensation
in Rome than has any other event
since the death of Pope Leo. Fires in
Rome are exceptional Because of the
heavy stone and brick construction
of the buildings, and the outbreak of
flames in such a conspicuous place,
wherein were many celebrated treas
ures, brought out a great number of
anxious people in spite of the heavy
rain which had been falling through
out the day. The safety of the pope
was the first thought in everyone's
mind, but this was soon assured.
When the pontiff arrived at the scene
he ordered everyone to assist in eX-
tinguishing the flames
At little after IL o'clock the fire
was under control. The entire mu-
scum of inscriptions, the rooms of
Father Ehrle, part of the library and
the printing houses were entirely
flooded with water.
