JUDGE PARKER INYADBS
STATE. or NEW JERSEY
SPEAKS ar MONSTER MASS
MEETING Ar NEWARK.
Republicans Almost In Majority and
cheer reference to Roosevelt's Name
misses aud Cheers Mingled but
Meeting Is Finally Quieted Before
Presidential Candidate Appears.

4 Presidential Candidate Appears.
Newark, N. j., Nov. Eventually
ineffective, but temporarily successful,
was an attempt made tonight to rout a
monster democratic meeting at the Es-
sex Troop armory, where Judge Parker
was the principal speaker The great
building, with a capacity said to be
more than two-thirds that Of Madison
Square Garden iii New York. was filled
and at the first mention nf the present
administration and the name Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt hundreds broke forth
with terrific cheering and for several
minutes it appeared ais though the DEM
ocrats were in the minority. The scene
that followed was one ofJunimagin
confusion. Kisses and cheers were
mingled. Words in anger and threats
were heard, and the police were power
less to control. Finally the democrats,
by sheer force of numbers and their
greater volume of sound, drowned out
their adyersaries.
The disturbance occurred before
Judge Parker reached the hall. The
meeting was called to order at O'clock.
1t was under the auspices of the Parker
Constitution club of New Jersey, and
Richard ". Lindabury was introduced
as the presiding officer. He made his
speech devoted to national issues, but
had not fairly started before 1t became
evident that there were a number or
republicans In the building. Mr. Lind
abury referred to the alleged usurpa-
tion of power by the executive In the
Panama republic incident. which APP
peared to be the signal for the out
break.
4 In an instant the representatives of
the two parties were locked in a COM
bat of boots and Kisses, handclapping
and cheers. Mr. Lindabury appeared to
be taken by surprise and he repeated
the reference to Panama, again men
tioning the name of Roosevelt, which
was cheered louder than ever. BY this
time the democrats in the audience
were ready to meet the attack, which
they did with Kisses for the interrupt
tions and cheers for the democratic
candidate.
i In defiance of the attempt to rout
him, Mr.. Lindabury abandoned the
speech he had prepared for the occasion
and talked directly at the disturbers.
He seemed to. relish the contest, and BY
$50, when the band leading the Parker
procession was heard to approach the
armory, he had effectually silenced
\ those who had cheered for the republic
can party
4 When Judge Parker finally reached
the platform he was given an ovation
equal in intensity to that at Madison
Square Garden last night. Throughout
his speech he was accorded marked at
Itention.

bar, and that every courtesy would be
extended to the traveller on her arrival

as to whether the question of Mrs
Maybricks citizenship would be raised
by the immigration authorities, replied
emphatically There will not be any

all the American people have done to
secure the liberation of Mrs. Maybrick,
think it would go pretty hard with
