Most Magnificent Pageant And International
Exposition In All History Goes Out
With TolLng Bells At The
Midnight Hour.

st. Louis, Dec. 1.-The Louisiana
Purchase Exposition has ended. The
stupendous and magnificent EXPOSE
ton. the interest OF which has OK.
tended into every portion OF the civil.
| lied world, has run its course and now
passed into history as probably having
comprised the most representative col.
lection CT the resources. industries,
art, people and customs of the world
ever assembled.
From the inception CT the project to
hold the Exposition until the gates
were thrown open and the world was
invited to enter. occupied period of
seven years. The duration of the Ex-
position has been seven months, and
during that time nothing has occurred
to throw a dampening effect on the
interest or to detract from the EXPOSE
tion in any way. The best order has
been maintained ana there have been
but few fires, all of small moment
with the exception of the destruction
of the House of Hoo Hoo and the par
tial destruction of the Missouri Build
ing recently. No loss of life has &C.
cured during the Exposition from ac-
cidents. st. Louis has pIotfered her
most gracious hospitality to the world
and it has been accepted.
The opiniS-s las been expressed at
all times on all sides. and without re-
serve that the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition has been success.
he man PROBABLY most prominently
identified in connection with the
Worlds Fair is the President, David
K. Francis. and it was deemed fitting
that the final day should be designated
as Francis Day" in his honor. .
Every honor was pald the man whose
work has meant the success of this
greatest OF under takings. President
Francis made an address during the
lay outlining some of the stupendous
results of this worlds exposition.

AN INDOMlTABLE
DEFENSE.
Gen. StGeSsel Will Not Surrender
Port Arthur Even at Cars
Orders.

St. Petersburg, Dec. with the
confir nation of the news that the Jap
anese have occupied 2O3 Metre Hill,
and the report that the Russians up-
successfully atten pied its recapture,
officials at the War Office are beginning
to prepare themselves for the lnevi-
table.
Golden Hill and Liaoti Hill are
higher and dominate 203 Metre Hill,
but the officials say that il the Japa-
/ nese succeed in mounting heavy guns
upon the latter, it probably will
be only question of days or weeks
before the fortress falls.
Still, there Is not the slightest idea
among Gen. Stoessel's friends that
he will surrender, even if he should be
ordered to do so. 1t is limited that it
is possible that if the fall of the tort
ress is shown to be inevitable, the
Emperor may direct its surrender. in
order to prevent the unnecessary sacri-
hce of Its brave defenders, but it is
believed by those who know Gen.
Stoessell best that he Will literally
make good his threat to hold out to the
last man and the last cartridge in Port
Arthur.
The ships In the harbor. it can now
be stated on high authority. are in no
condition to attempt to break through
the investing squadron. The guns of
the warships were long ago landed and
the marines and sailors have been
in the land defense
Some of the ships also have been in
jured by shells. 1t the fortress falls. ii
is understood they will be taken out
side and sunk in deep water.

The fact that it is the best

Force Against Force.

Some Of the rioters IN Colorado have
appealed To President Roosevelt for pro
lection from the state authorities who
have been banishing obstreperous persons
from the vicinity Of the mines These
striking miners have little comprehension
Of the powers OF the president under the
constitution. He can interpose the fed
eral power in a state under only three
conditions-when the state authorities
ask for his interference on account OF
their inability to preserve the peace,
when the mails. the federal courts or in
terstate commerce are iuterfered with
and when the state is in revolt against
the general government Nothing ap-
preaching either of the three is found in
the Colorado situation. From start TO
finish it has been purely state trouble,
and the federal courts have no right to
iatcrfere.
The presumption is that president 81
the United States will do his full duty
without regard to his feelings or <ympa-
thies. However, the president is humru,
and we may not doubt that whatever Of
sympathy he might once have had has
been wholly removed by the furious as
saults made upon him by the Miner
union just as the assaults made by this
union on persons and property have re-
moved the sympathy OF law-respecting
people everywhere. For example, the
executive board OF the Miners union
recently issued an appeal to labor every
where to organize against the reelection
Of the president, saying:
"We recommend that such steps be
taken as will nerve the arm and fire the
brain of the great labor army of America
to rise as a unit and demand that the
monster of despotism shall not live upon
the soil Of free republic; and VIC shall
appeal to the honest citizenship Of the
nation to bring to an end the political
career of the military Napoleon. the Off
ciai lion hunter Of Oyster Bay"
