CONDITIONS IN INDIANA.
Republicans Wondering What Surprise
Taggart is Preparing.

What is Tom Taggart planning for in
Indiana?' That is a question that repub-
licans in and out of the hoosier state are
asking at this time with the greatest in
terest. They are satisfied that surprises
are to be sprung on them election day,
and they are wondering what they will
be.
There are so many mixed conditions in
Indiana that even the best informed people
are at times questioning what the real Sit
uation is. Normally the state should go re-
publican as it's record has been made gen.
orally on that side of the political dividing
line. But there have been surprises in the
past, and Taggart is regarded as a man of
resources within the state, ana particularly
in Indianapolis.
When Taggart was elected mayor of In
dianapois with the greatest majority ne
has ever rolled up when running for that
office it was charged that he had locked
up within the confines of a commodious
barn couple of hundred colored voters,
and they did not get out until the polling
stations had been closed. There was d
great fuss about it, but it finally resolved
itself into a question as to whether these
men had right to go into that particular
barn and stay there, whether the key of
the door was turned or not, ii they saw
fit to do so.
Whether or not an inducement was made
to them to isolate themselves at that critical
time question for dispute. After the
fuss was over nothing was done about 1t
and Taggart was mayor of the city by an
immense majority.
Now there is running against Representa-
tive Jesse OverStreet, as an independent
candidate for Congress- colored man,
and many republicans are quietly wonder
ing what Taggart has had to do with that
He is credited with taking the view that
the colored people would be better off by
acting independently as party than by
voting with of the great parties of the
day. He knows where the vote comes from
that goes to any independent colored candi-
date.
Calculations on Indiana always deal with
the great movements of people into and
out of that state within the past four or
five years. This movement has come into
the state from Pennsylvania in the gas, OIL
glass and other industries. 1t has been al
most entirely of republicans, and as the
glass and some other industries depend
greatly upon the protective tariff this in
coming population is regarded as fixed in
within five years 5000 voters have gone
into the state from Pennsylvania.
On the other hand, the developments In
the southwestern states of Oil and gas
lands have called from Indiana MANY yot-
ers, who have found employment in those
lines of Industry in the past in that state
Many persons claim that this exodus T.,
equal to the number of those who have
come into the state from Pennsylvania but
as there has been no material falling off in
the magnitude of the several industries in
which these men have been engaged, but on
the whole rather a development that has
increased the number of men EMPLOYED II
is believed that the state has not materially
lost in voting strength.

Amundsen's Arctic Party Safe.

A cablegram from Dundee, Scotland. last
night says: A whaler returned from Davis
strait brings news of the safety of Captain
Amundsen's arctic expedition, which left
Chrlstiania June II, 1903.
Captain Amundsen's expedition has been
described as having for its purpose a task
of the highest Importance in the domain
of terrestrial magnetism. The plan was to
go first to King William Land on the east
coast of Greenland, and thence proceed for
Boring strait. If the plan should be car
ried out, it would take the expedition al
most directly across the north magnetic
pole. The vessel on which the expedition
sailed was the Gjoa, forty-six tons, yacht
rugged, and having auxiliary petroleum
engine, and she was equipped for four
years stay in the arctic regions. Davis
strait, whence comes the report of the
safety of Captain Amundsen, connects Baf-
fins bay with the Atlantic ocean and forms
the western boundary of Greenland,

WASHINGTON NOW A GREAT
NEWS CENTER.
The New Pacific Gable Gives It First
Place in the Worlds Affairs.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
Within the past few years, and particu-
larly since the laying of the Pacific cable
a great change has been observable in the
news distribution of the world New York
Is rapidly becoming. and in many ways has
already become, the worlds news center
taking London's place.
Europe actually gets most of it's news
about the Russo-Japanese war from Ameri-
ca, for example. Such a state of things
would have seemed incredible even so short
a time back as n year ago. As long as
news collecting has been a business Eu-
rope has supplied America with news Now
the relations are being rapidly reversed
The great news gathering association of
the old world is Reuters agency. In former
times-in fact. in time recent that the
word former hardly seems the proper
word to use-news from the far east was
sent from Asia to Europe by Reuter-
agency. Reuter- supplied IL to the Assoc
ciated Press, which cabled it across the
water for American use.
Now all that is reversed. The eastern

SIX TICKETS IN THE FIELD.
Populists and Socialist-Labor Canvass
Menaces Democratic Success.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star
COLUMBUS, Ohio, October S.-The So
cialst-labor party filed a petition with
the secretary of the state Friday night nom
mating a full state and electoral ticket.
Both this petition and that of the popu-
lists were found to be regular, and the
tickets proposed have been admitted to
the state ballot.
1t makes a total of six full state and
electoral tickets for the ballot There
were seven last year. Neither the popu-
lists nor the socialist-labor parties have
nominated congressional candidates. The
nomination of both these rickes by petit
ion is generally looked upon as injurious
to the democratic party III this state in
the coming election.
