Waterbury evening Democrat., 1904-11-05

New Haven, Nov 5.-Departing from the custom which has obtained in pre- vious great campaigns, neither of the chief political parties in Connecticut let up on their activity to-day or reached the point where the state cen tral committee chairman could say with self-complacency that their work was done. Campaigning willsbe car ried on everywhere in this state by both republicans and democrats until the polls open on Tuesday morning. Neither party is satisfied to stop to- night and leave the issue with the voters on the record of things accom- plished in the last month. There have been no buster days this fall at the headquarters of the two parties in Hartford than was presented to-day. There were thousand and one things to be attended to and all sorts of plans were on foot to make Monday a very lively date. Confidence in equal amount was shown by the managers at both places, although the republi, cans were ready and willing to tell what they expected In the way of fig ures for the presidential and state tick ct. The democrats expressed the be J them" and that they exAscted Judge Parker and the state ticket would win.
 Independent observers of the politi- cal situation to-day seemed to agree that the outlook was decidedly in favor of the republicans on the presidential ticket, but not so good on the state ticket as far as the candidates for goy- ernor and lieutenant-governo were concerned. They ventured the sugges. ton that the democrats would elect at least twelve senators, which would give them a net gain of one senator as compared with 1902. Tn the last senate that party had six and the republicans eighteen, an exact third. These inde- pendents also look for some democratic gains in the lower house.
 The total vote at the coming election, should the weather be good, will be Connecticut Registration has been phenomenally heavy everywhere, all parties striving to get every citizen to qualify as an elector. The labor men. intensely interested in the battles which have been fought all over the state during the past few years, are eager to show their strength at the polls as never before. Among them the socialists both of the Debs branch and of the labor branch which nom- mated Corrigan for president, have worked early and late at the meeting places of the labor men to get recruits. Before the election is held the-@ labor vote appears to be an unknown quality. Calculations on all sides seem to in, clude this fact. Tn New Haven, for instance, where the labor men are somewhat embittered by the outcome of the teamsters' strike, there has seemed to be an under current of feel ing that neither the republican or the democratic parties were any too sym, pathetic towards them. 1t has been noticeable that during the campaign in this state scarcely a labor leader of prominence has taken the stump to speak for either of the leading parties. It also has been noticeable that meet ings held under the auspices of the populists, the socialists and the social labor party have been attended by larger audiences than was the case four and eight years ago.

oI1TRREAK THREATENED.


 Mukden. Nov 5, via Pekin.-The un- interrupted activity conspicuous be- tween the opposing positions, that on the plain and on Hungpao hill, occu- pied by the Japanese, and on Manalon hill, named after 8 Russian general, daily threatens formidable outbreak. From Hungpao, the capture of which by the Japanese was reported on Oc- fober 12 by the correspondent Of the Associated Press, the Japanese are now smelling the Russians with cap- fured Russian guns and the resulting feeling among the Russians indicates that this spot, which is the most prom snent along the entire line, will doubt less initiate the coming battle Occa- eionaI casualties are reported at P1en- chiapu on account of it's exposed posi- ton, as the apex of an aggregating wedge used against the Japanese right. At the Shahopu station is a water tank which the Japanese are using as a watch tower, from which the Rus sian artillery has failed after an at tempt lasting more than fortnight to dislodge the enemy on account of it being such small target The Jap anese still possess an elevated temple fn the auadrangle west of Linshenpu, while the combatants occupy separate barts of the same village. The advan- ifage of position appears slightly in fa- vor of the Japanese along the entire line.
 The women and children of Fench1- ,apu, near Ta mountain, arrived at Mukden on November 2 after q twenty \ mile tramp The Russian authorities {, facilitate the movements of refugees by allowing them the use of numerous bridges over the Hun river. The use
 of all Chinese timber by the soldiers,
 toget .,.. wit the destruction of bu 'd- ings, has caused the Chinese them selves to pull down their houses and
 sell the timber. which otherwise might he lost completely Tn consequence of this General Kuropatkin has ordered that the houses shall be preserved for the reason that they are necessary for the Chinese and also useful to the army.
 The soldiers are now mostly ill dug out encampments along the siege line, giving the war an appearance of seri- ousness hitherto unobseryed The sol diers are bearing their unusual hard ship, sometimes only one meal daily, insufficient clothing and also exposure, with great hardness. The commander in chiefs orders are now dated at headquarters for land and naval
