 the Members.

Washington. Oct. 1l-Members of the Panama canal commission now in the city called today by appointment on President Roosevelt short time afterward John Barrett acting minister to Panama, had a conference with the president.
 The commissioner remained with the president about half an hour.

Among other proposals which the commission has accepted were those for thirteen immense steam shovels and for three million feet of lumber. If it should be determined eventually to have the canal work done by contract, an arrange ment will be made with the contractors for the purchase of the steam shovels and lumber, as well as of other supplies now being acquired by the commission Whether the canal work will be done by contract or directly by the commission will be determined by companies on fig ures as to the cost of the work now being done. with the proposals made by the contractors.

Says Trusts Will By No Means Be Favored By Democratic
 Tariff Revision.

Buffalo, N. r., Oct 12-The Democratic state convention opened tonight with q mass meeting at convention hall. The Democratic candidates, D. Cady Herrick' nominee for governor; Francis Burton Harrison. nominee for lieutenant gov ernor, and John Cunneen, nomiee Tor at torney general. and Edward M.

Interest Keen In London.

London, October 13.-The great battle raging south of Mukden has revived full public interest in the Russo-Japanese war Piecemeal reports from both sides are discussed and analysed In the fullest details in the belief that this will prove to be the greatest engagement of the pres ent campaign, and the news so far re- ceived inclines the military experts to the opinion that General Kuropatkin is running tremendous risks by his bold Initiative.
 There Is yet no confirmation of the re- nort that General Mistchenko's force Is cut off, and the fact that Field Marshal Ovama's report does not mention him is regarded here as pointing to his escape. At the same time the dispatches don't yet point to a success on the Russian side, and the motives underlying General 1<urnpatl<ins decision to assume the of- fens,,e are considered as difficult to un- dersand as before

ChicagOs Mayor is Bearer of
 Good Tidings
GERMAN VOTE DEMOCRATIC
Mr. Harrison Thinks Prospect of Car ryinp Illinois Is Very Bright Be. cause of Large German
 Population.

New York, October 12.-Carter IT. HafTt son. mayor of Chicago. conferred today with Judge Parker concerning political affairs in Illinois. Wisconsin and Indiana. He pledged the loyalty of all wings of the democratic party ln Illinois; declared that factionalism in his state has been eliminated. and that the general vote is democratic, concluding with the state ment that this gives to the democrats chance to carry a state, which, he saids is normally republican.
 Mayor Harrison's visit lasted two houri or more. He will return to Chicago tomor- row When Mayor Harrison left ths apartment of Judge Parker. he said laughingly to the Assosctated Press rep- resentative:
 T came to deliver the electoral votes Of Illinois Wisconsin and Indiana"
 Afterwards he said if that was not q big enough contract he might include the vote of Iowa.
 Speaking of the poll made in Illinois hs outside of Cook county, but that Chicago showed largely democratic. German Vote Is Democratic.
 .'So much so.' he said. that with tho 1 German vote which Is with us, I think we have a good chance to carry the state will not give figures on any one of the three states mentioned. l never give es- tlmates until shortly before election, and then the figures give are accurate. The German vote in Illinois Is nearly one-third of the vote of the state 1t Is with us on the question of imperialism The Ger | mans of my state left their own country because of an imperialistic form of gov ernment, and that tendency displayed by the present administration will run the Germans from the republican, party" l In response to an Inquiry whether Judge Parker would be urged again to visit Chi. cago Mayor Harrison said;
 Want Him In Chicago.
 i'All the Democrats of Chicago ask is that if Judge Parker goes anywhere, he will go to Chicago. We sent delegation to Esopus to Invite Judge Parker to visit 1 Chicago, and he said he would do so If he went anywhere. ne advisability of l Western trip is a matter which may be | viewed from more than one point, and, after all, Is a question which the candi- date can best decide for himself"
 The candidates callers today included Senator German of Maryland. Declaney | Nieoll, vice chairman of the national committee; Chas V. Fish, president of the board of aldermen, and Hilary A. Herbert, secretary of the navy under President Cleveland.
 Judge Parker intends to return to Eso- pus at 2:45 p. m. tomorrow, and come to New York again on Monday next
