JUDGE PARkER's ANSWER.
To the Presidents Sweeping Denial
Of His Charges.

New York, Nov. G.-Judge Alton b.
Parker delivered last night his prom
ised reply to President Roosevelt s
denial of conspiracy between the ad-
ministration and the trusts in the col
lection of a Republican campaign FUN.
In opening. Judge Parker pointed
out that in the statement issued Fri
day night the President failed to deny
that the trusts were contributors to
the Republican campaign fand, but
made pretense of refutation by
charging through inference that the
Democratic national committee was
as sinful as his own. in having itself
extracted great sums of money from
capitalistic combinations. Tremen-
dous applause followed the denial of
this Inference of the President.
When he accepted the nomination.
Judge Parker said he called his man
ayers into conference and asked them
to accept no contributions toward his
election from any trust. His audi
ence cheered the sentiment to the
echo.
And" the Judge continued, II am
advised by those gentlemen to-day
that my wishes in this matter have
been scrupulously followed out"
The Judge went on to ask: Would
the public interests be safe in the
hands of a party the greater part OF
whose campaign funds had been con
tributed by corporations and trusts?'
IF the public welfare and the inter-
ests of subscribing corporation or trust
should conflict, what would likely be
protected?"

President Issues a Genial.

Washington. Nov. 5.-President
Roosevelt last night made signed
statement to the American people. in
answer to the charges promulgated
against himself and Mr.. Cortelyou in
public speeches by Judge Parker. Dem
ocratic candidate for the presidency
President Roosevelt says:
1.-THE assertion that Mr.. Cortelyou
had any knowledge gained while in
any official position, whereby he was
enabled to secure and did secure any
contributions from any corporations, is
falsehoCd.
1.-THE assertion that there has been
any blackmail. direct or indirect, by
Mr.. Cortelyou, or by me, is a false
hood.
THE assertion that there has been
made. in my behalf of and by my au-
thorization by Mr.. Cortelyou, or by
myself, any pledge, or that there has
been any understanding as to future
benefits. in recognition of any contri-
button from any source. is a wicked
falsehood."

YASHIhA IS SUNK
DESTROYED BY RUSSIAN MINE
Loss of Ons Of Japan's Best Battle
ships.-Report Confirmed by
Associated Press.

Paris, Nov. 4.-The Associated Press
was put in a position to-day to state
positively that its dispatches from
Che Foo. Port Arthur and Toxic
to the effect that the Japanese
battleship Yashima had been sunk by
mine off Dalny. which dispatches
were denied by the Japanese authori-
ties at the time, have finally been ON
cially confirmed. The japanese gov
eminent has notified foreign govern
ments of the loss of the ship. The
number of men who went down with
the vessel is not known. but 1t is be
lieved to have been small. The Off
cal details show that the Yashima
struck a Russian mine and later at
tempted to make Dalny harbor. but
this proved Impossible, AID she sank
in deep water.
The loss of the Yashima has been
concealed by the japanese. though the
Russian authorities have believed for
some time that the reports that the
battleship had been DESTROYED were
correct. 1t is important, since 1t Is
now DISCLOSE. that Japan has only four
modern battleships remaining.
These are the Asahi, Full. Mikasa
and Shikishima. Another vessel classed
as as battleship is the Chinyen, taken
from China in 1894, but she Is olu anu
not of much fighting value.
The Yashima was one OF the finest
battleships of the Japanese navy. Her
displacement was 1880 tons, about
the size OF the American battleship
Maine. and she had speed oil nine
teen knots. She carried heavy bat
tery of four twelve-inch, ten six-inch
and four other guns of smaller caliber.
The Russian squadron at Port Arthur
includes five modern battleships more
or less damaged. and Rear Admiral Ro-
jestvensk.-'s command. which Is now
en- route from the Baltic to the Far
East, also numbers five battleships: In
view of the inferiority of the Jap
anese in battleships, their armored
cruisers strength is important. they
being greatly superior to the russians
liz this respect.

Port Arthur Doomed.

Chez Foo, Nov 4.-Port Arthur is
doomed. The correspondent of the
Associated Press here has received in.
formation, the reliability of which is
beyond question, that the Japanese
now occupy positions which place the
east side of the town at their mercy.
The last assault has gained for them
positions which insure their ability to
enter the main forts whenever they
are ready. Terrific explosions here in
dictate that the Russians have exploded
mines and destroyed other property.
The Japanese calculate that II the
Russians do not surrender now they
will be capable of prolongiIg the fight
ing by making their final stand at Ii
aoti promontory and Tigers Tail for
month longer. with the mere hope
of continuing. the struggle. Long be-
fore the second Pacific squadron ar
rives in the Pacific. the Japanese flag
it is now believed will wave over the
wrecked citadel. -

Denver, Nov. 5.-Tnspectors of the
State Board of Stock Inspection Com
missioners are just now breaking rec
ords in dipping sheep in accordance
with the regulations of the board for
eradicating scab in Colorado. Scott
w. Peck, inspector in Las Animas
county. has just reported to Charles
G.. Lamb. state veterinary surgeon
that during the past two months he
has dipped $4,000 head of sheep in that
county. Leslie Gilmore, inspector for
Huerfano county. has a record of 81
40 sheep dipped for the same length
of time. According to DR.. Lamb tn,
sheepmen of the state are taking hole
OF the dipping proposition in earnes'
and seem determined to stamp the
scab out of their flocks. The thaorv
of dipping under the supervision of the
stock inspectors of the board. II is
thought. will better the condition of
Colorado sheep very materially, and
DR.. Lamb believes it will be only a
a short time before sheep scab will be
unknown in Colorado.
The inspectors will continue dippinf
as long as the weather permits am
will resume operations in the spring
as soon as it is possible to do so.

May Reopen Grant smelter.

Denver. Nov. 5.-The News this
morning says: Is the Grant smelter tc
be opened again for business after a
long period of idleness? This report
has been in circulation for several
months and it has always been denied
at the headquarters of the American
Smelling and Refining Company In
Denver. Yesterday, however. the re
port was again circulated, with EN-
phasis. and Franklin Guiterman, gen
eral manager Of the smelter trust, re
fused to either deny or affirm the re
port. This is taken as an indication
that something is doing.
According to the report, the Grant
smelter is to be rebuilt at a cost Of
100000. Plans are now being drawn
for the improvements, 1t is said, and
work is soon TO begin.

London, Nov. 6.-Baron Hayashi, the
Japanese minister here. asked re-
garding the report current at St. Pc
tersburg that the Japanese minister at
The Hague had organized an attack on
the Russian squadron. emphatically de-
MED that any action had been taken at
The Hague. He said:
In their daily different explana-
tons the Russians alternately credit
us with supernatural cleverness and
foolishness. If people would only stop
to think. they would see that it would
be almost suicidal for us to risk the
friendship of any power by an attempt
to destroy the Russian squadron from
a neutral port when it is to our ut
most advantage that the squadron
should arrive in our own waters under
its present admiral"
