About $4,000 Troops, Armed With
the Most Modern Trappings,
Are Engaged.

Changtefu, Province of Honan, China,
Oct. 2.-The autumn maneuvers Of the
Chinese imperial army began today IN
the neighborhood of Changtefu. About
$4,000 troops from the provinces OF HO-
nan. Hupeh, Chi Ii and Changtung are
engaged, under the command of Tuan
Shi Kai, cOmmander-in-chief of the Chi
nese forces. and General TihilianG, in
Guiding cavalry, infantry and cavalry. the
latter arm consisting of $50 guns.
According to the scheme of operations, a
southern army composed of the Hupeh
and Honan forces. is supposed to have
landed in the Yapgtse valley, and one
wing is endeaV oring to reach Picking by
way of the Picking &c Hankow railroad,
and a northern army, composed Of the
Chi Il and Shangtung troops, is COM
PEELED to defend the capital at short no
tice
The troops engaged in the operations
are equipped with the most modern ac-
coutrements rifles and guns, ana pre-
sent an appearance highly creditable TO
the foreign officers who have trained and
drilled them The maneuVerS have evoked
the greatest interest in foreign countries.
No less than thirty military attaches OF
foreign powers are closely following the
operations. which will conclude with a
grand review and entertainment of the
foreign guests by the officials of the
province and officers OF the Chinese
army.

Political Notes.

The Republicans seem to be having a
hard time working up any interest in
their campaign. The smallneSs of their
vote last year accounts for il.
A sparsely attended Republican rally
was held at Bingham Junction last night.
Colonel George w. Squires, the noted or
ator of Sugar ward. was the chief speak
er. James e. Clinton. candidate for
county commissioner. also spoke.
In the parlors of the Kenyon hotel to-
night Charles Z. Littlefield of Maine.
the well known and bitter enemy of the
cause Of union labor will address the
members of the Women's Republican
club. Mr.. Littlefield may endeavOr to
explain why the laboring men in his con-
gressional district reduced his majority
this year from more than 6,000 to a little
more than 1000.
Word comes from Provo that man
has been found there who believes the
McWhirter brothers are Scotland Yard
detectives who were imported here for
the purpose of conspiring against Chief
Sheets. The credulouS one has for some
years resided in a large building in the
east end of Provo. He also believes that
he is made out of glass and that the
hierarch is backing the American
party.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1906-10-23

ton could be seen on every hand. Hay
and straw stacks were destroyed and
blown away. Barns and houses blown
down. or unroOfed. Telephone and tele-
graph poles are down for stretches of
more than a mile in many places. 1t will
be many weeks before communication can
be restored to its normal state. Syracuse
junction, kaySville, Layton Pennington
and Bountifui were all affected alike.
The storm was not partial. In some
places the trees were blown across the
roadway in such numbers that they were
lmpaSSa BILE and other routes will have TO
be used until they can be cleared away.
A threshing machine turned completely
over and a large hay rack wrapped Sc
curely in d barb wire fence were among
the freaks played by the wind along the
way. Several of the barns in Farming
ton were blown down and the roof from
the little pOstoffice guiding is missing.
The Davis county court house also suf-
fered from the storm, one of the long
windows in the tower, together with the
sash. being blown OUT slick and clean.
South of Pennington, a small stable was
blown directly out into the roadway. The
line of the Telluride Power company
probably suffered least of any. Not I'M
til where the line left the mountain side
was there any serious trouble. then some
of the poles were blown over, but the
damage was comparatively light.

JAP DETECTIVES
AFTER DARMER
Another Vile Conspiracy
Against Salt Lake ''Ameri-
cans" Hatched in Toxic.
DISGUISED AS TEA BOXES
DARMER SAYS HE WILL BE ON
LOOKOUT.

Another vile conspiracy is on foot.
From sources that are regarded us UNI
Improbable comes word that an attempt
is shortly to be mace to degrade and dis
credit Chairman Darmer of the Amer
lean county committee. BY. the aid of
detectives from the honorable police force
OF Toxic, the Democratic and Repub-
ncan committees expect TO prove that Mr..
Darmer has several times recently at
tempted TO persuade divers and sunGry
citizens of Salt Lake to vote the Amer
lean" ticket.
OF course there is nothing in the report.
Ii seems most surprising that the hon
orable chief of the Toxic force, the Hon.
Baron Bingbingata, should lend himself
to the movement. The honorable price
paid, though, amounting to little more
than % honorable yen, was too great a
temptation. AS the result of some volum-
nous cable correspondence the deal has
been arranged and the detectives are now
on the way to Salt Lake.
The honorable officers will disguise
themselves as Japanese tea boxes and
will station themselves wherever they
are most likely TO collect the evidence
they so earnestly desire. This. step will
be regarded by many people as the
browning infamy of the campaign. 1t
will doubtless cause all those who were
pledged to vote the American" ticket
to regard their pledges as sacred.
Chairman Darmer. when seen about
the matter yesterday, admitted that he
had heard the story. but he professed
not to be alarmed about it Il will mere
~ ask my friends" said he, ''to with
hold their judgment until have a
chance to defend myself Without the
aid of perjured, manufs ctured testimony
these honorable hirelings from the land
of the mikado will never be able to prove
that | have asked anybody to vote the
American ticket.
we have here merely another illus
tration of the lengths TO which the HER
N efforts dlScreOlt
the American cause. You may be sure
I will keep sharp watch for anything
that looks like a Japanese tea box and
I thank you for giving me an opportunity
to get ready.
The honorable japanese plan is thought
by insiders to be only a part of "a NAM
moth conspiracy. Efforts are even now
under way to bring over the famous
French detectives. Sapristi and Sacre-
dam. to watch prominent citizens who
are suspected of American" leanings-
But it is not believed that they will sue
.ceSsfully perform their mission. Some
Americans just won't bear watching.
