A cAUsELEss SCARE.
sritons Were Excited by Warlike Ru-
mors from Gibraltar.


London, Nov. 2.-Negotlations be-
tween Great Britain and Russia look
Ing to settlement of the North Sea
affair are progressing favorably, and
there is not the slightest danger of
any friction arising between the two
governments. The constitution of the
international commission under The
Hague convention is on the verge of
settlement.
In spite of these pacific conditions
Great Britain yesterday experienced q
war panic that can only be compared
to the panic created on October %,
when the news of the sinking of the
trawlers in the North Sea was receiv-
ed. Not for years have SO many
alarmist reports and flaming extras
flooded London. The most eXtraordi-
nary feature of this scare, which was
serious enough while it lasted, is that
there was not one single circumstance
to justify it.
The excitement started early in the
day, when the newspapers announced
the departure of the Russian Baltic
squadron from Vigo. The public was
not in possession of the information
cabled by the Associated Press to the
United States that only the officers
concerned in the firing on the British
trawlers would be detached and
jumped at the conclusion that Russia
had broken faith by not OBTAINING the
vessels involved in the affair. On top
of this came wild reports of tremend-
Gus activity at Gibraltar

ARMIES READY FOR BATTLE.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 1.-Everything
indicates that both the Japanese and
the Russian armies south of Mukden
are ready for resumption of hostili-
ties, If indeed fighting has not already
begun. Gen. Kuropatltin reports that
the Japanese have received reinforce
ments from the south and Fengwang
Cheng. Their concentration seems to
have been accomplished, and they are
ready to resume the offensive both
east and west Of the railroad.
Dispatches indicate the resumption
of fighting on both extremities of the
Russian front.
The latest reports from Port Arthur
are by no means encouraging. Gen.
Stoessel is making a good defence,
but the Japanese are approaching now
by parallels close to important Rus
sian Notifications. While this form
of attack is less spectacular and less
,ostly in men than repeated assault,
it is no less conclusive in ultimate re-
suits, demanding a sleepless defence
and almost impossible to Illustrate.

SCENE oE WILD CONFUSION.
Kisses and Cheers Mingled at Demo-
cratic Rally in Newark, NJ. j.

Newark, N. j., Nov. 2.-Eventually
ineffective but temporarily successful,
was the attempt made last night to
rout q monster democratic meeting at
Essex Troop armory, where Judge
Parker was the principal speaker.
The great building with a capacity
said to be more than two-thirds that
Of Madison Square Garden, in New
York, was filled and at the first men
tion of the present administration and
the name of President Roosevelt hun
dreds broke forth with terrific cheer
ing and for several minutes 1t appear
ed as though the democrats were in
the minority.
The scene that followed was one of
unimaginable confusion. Kisses and
cheers were mingled. Words in anger
and threat were heard, and the police
were powerless to control. Finally
the democrats by sheer force of num-
bers and their greater volume of
sound drowned out their adversaries.
The disturbance occurred before
Judge Parker reached the hall. The
meeting was called to order at s
o'clock. 1t was under the auspices of
the Parker Constitution club and
Richard V. Lindbury was introduced
as the presiding officer. He began a
speech devoted to national issues, but
had ~ fairly started before it be-
came' evident that there were a num-
ber of republicans in the building. Mr.
Lindbury referred to the alleged usur-
patton of power by the executive in
the Panama republic incident, which
appeared to be the signal for the out
break
In defiance Of the attempt to rout
him, Mr.. Lindbury abandoned the
speech he had prepared for the occa-
sion and talked directly at the dis
turbers. He seemed to relish the con-
test and by $50 when the band lead
ing the Parker procession was heard
to approach the armory, he had
silenced those who had cheered for
the republican party.
When Judge Parker finally reached
the platform he was given an ovation
equal in intensity to that at Madison
Square Garden Monday night.
Throughout his speech he was ac-
corded marked attention.
Another ovation was given the can
didate when he concluded his speech.
1t continued several minutes, in fact,
until Judge Parker left the meeting to
take a special trolley car to Jersey
City, where he also made speeches
before returning to New York.

THOUSANDS OF MEN IDLE.
Strike of Engineers Ties UP Hundreds
of Mines All Through Illinois.


Chicago, Nov. 2.-Specials from IL
linois points indicate that less than
100 of the 800 coal mines in Illinois
are hoisting coal as result of the
strike of engineers, which went into
effect Monday at midnight. The total
number of hoisting engineers who de-
serted their posts is about 500 and
nearly $4,000 miners are thrown out
of work as a result.
The engineers do not look for an
early settlement of the difficulties,
which were brought about by the ac-
ton of the Illinois Operators associ-
alton in cutting the wages of hosting
engineers 5.35 per cent.
Twelve hundred men are idle at
Pana, where all the mines are closed.
At Centralia $50 men are out. Hills
boro, Marion, Sandoval, Mascoutah
and Springfield mines are closed.
Danville, Ill.,, Nov. 2.-No mines are
in operation here. Three thousand
men are idle here as result of the
strike. President Mack Taylor, of the
mine hosting engineers, says the tie
up is complete, excepting about Is
mines over the state which have sign
ed the old scale.
Spring Valley, ILL.,, Nov. 2.-The
strike of the hosting engineers has
made 5000 miners idle in the Spring
Valley coal field. The engineers will,
it is said, get no support from the
miners, who are strongly opposed to
their enforced idleness. Efforts are
being made to get the engineers to
join the miners organization and re-
turn to work
