that there should not be the slightest

not only to ascertain who are reSpon-
sible but to punish them in the most
severe manner.
Until Rojestvensky's report was re-
ceived Russia has exhibited reluctance
to give such n pledge, believing that
an ample apology, in view of the lack
of all official information on their own
eide, would be sufficient. One of the
who visited Lord Lans-
d6wne today said that not one of his
colleagues believed that hostile issue
was possible. The only conceivable
danger was the increasing bitterness
of British public opinion which is
being famed into feverishness far
more by the announcements of the pre-
cautionary naval preparations than
by the news of the outrage itself.

HIGGINS SPEAKS TO NEGROES
VitriOlic Defamation for the Southern
White; the Rancid Butter of

(By the Associated Press.

New York, Oct 26.-Lieutenant
Governor Higgins spoke here tonight
at a mass meeting held in Cooper
Union under the auspices of the Col
ored Republican Club of the city of
New York. The large auditorium was
filed with an audience composed al
most entirely of colored people a
large proportion of them being wo-
men. Charles w. Anderson, president
of the club, presided and introduced
the Republican candidate for governor
as the first speaker. Mr.. Higgins
said:
"Since Abraham Lincoln. the great
emancipation, freed the slave and the
Republican party placed the ballot in
his hands and made him citizen. the
Democratic party in the South, frSt
by terror and violence, then by fraud
and Stratagem and finally by forms OF
law, has sought to reduce the negro
to political serfdom.

he Judges a man by the qualities OF

Ninth Congressional District in the CITY
of New York nearly 10000 votes were
cast for Representative in Congress.
The Democratic party counts the ne
gro representation but denies him the
rioht to participate in the cholce OF
his representatives. White suffrage IS
being established throughout the solld
South so that the whites now exercise
greater political power than in slavery

Laurel, Nd, oct Ex-senator Ar
thur Pue German made what Will pos
sibly be his only speech during the
present campaign at a large mass
meeting i'm this, his home town, to-
night and devoted the greater portion
of his address TO an attack on the
present administration, militarism ana
official extravaganza. Senator Cor
man said in part:
"The Republican party is a great
party and ordinarily it is safe. In
this campaign, however, you are not
dealing with the Republican party, 81
party composed of free American citi-
zens. You are dealing with a one

open the old wounds and threaten a
people. who have greater burden to
bear than any other people on earth.

threatening their homes
In a eulogy of Grant, Senator Cor
man declared that that great soldier
upon becoming President, declared
against a large standing army, in
which he was upheld by another great
soldier, General John a. Logan, who
framed the bill limiting it TO 10000
men, yet here is Theodore Roosevelt,
a little soldier of less than ninety days,
with dreams of an empire to be made
by him, who forced the passage of a
law increasing the standing army to
100000 men and bringing the State
militia organization under presiden-
tial control.
Roosevelt promised by Mckinley s
bier to follow in his footsteps and
he has followed in the opposite direc-
ton. He has built up an army and
a navy too large for the country, and
he has bullied South American rcpub-
lies and taken from one. Colombia, it's

FIGHTING ON \ VAST SCALE.
THIS * Believed Now to be Imminent
Did AleXieff Order KuropatIlin's
Advance?
CBy the Associated Press

st. Petersburg, oct. 26.-12:50 p. m.
The quiet now prevailing at the theatre
OF war is considered to be only the
calm before a storm. There is every
indication of the imminence of the re-
sumption Of fighting on a large scale
as the proximity of the two armies
rnake it impossible for them much lon
gel to defer a renewal of the battle.
NicerOy Alexieffs order of the day
announcing Kuropatkin's appointment
is in the same grandiose vein as ku-
ropatkin's order of October 5th. and is
regarded as having definitely estab-
lished the authorship of that ill-starred
document. While AlieXieff takes par
ticular pains in turning over the SUI
preme command of the land forces to
Kuropatkin to inform the soldiers and
the world of the marks of imperial
confidence reposed in him and to an
nounce that he will remain as Viceroy
the order is considered as virtually
his farewell address and that it'Will
soon be followed by his return 10 St.

Rival Football Elevens to Meet al

At a conference held here yester-

agreed that the two teams should
play at Chapel Hill on Thursday, NO

Both institutions have strong teams
which are getting better with each

be one of great interest.

not the case will be pleasant news to
the lovers of the game everywhere in
the State.
