that his successor is appointed prior to

 Naval Aides.
 
WILL GO TO ST. PETERSBURG

viadivostok. Nov. i7.-secretary of War Taft arrived here at noon today on board the converted cruiser Rain bow.
 The Rainbow was conveyed by the cruiser Chattanooga and Galveston. When the American vessels entered the Golden Horn. they were met by the Russian Gunboat detailed to escort them up the harhor. SaIutes were ex- changed with the land batteries. As the Rainbow steamed in, there could be seen the wreck of the Russian tor pedo boat destroyer which was sunk during the recent naval mutiny,
 The Rainbow anchored of shore, guarded by the Chattanooga and Gal- weston. The Secretary and his party will remain on board the steamer until their departure over the Trans-sibe berian Railroad for St. Petersburg at o'clock on the morning Of November 10. An imperial car has been placed at Mir. Taft's disposal for this journey and the Emperor of Russia has detailed mili, fary and naval aides to accompany him.
 General Peluge. the commandant of this port and other naval. military and civil ofticiais. called upon Mir. Taft this afternoon. It is probable that from St. Petersburg Mir. Taft will journey direct to Hamburg and sail for New York on December on board the steamer President Grant.
 The arrival here of the Rainbow was delayed for half a day by severe northerly gale. which was encountered the 18th. The heavy seas made con- siderable discomfort and on the night of the 18th the accidental sounding of the collision signal crested some alarm on board.

RIOT IN LOUISVILLE REORGANIZATION BY STRIKING CAR
 MEN. Two Policemem Are In5urcd and Fivn HHem Are Arrested---yVouaen
 Toek Part in the Melee.

Louisville, Ky, Nov. 1.-Two police men were injured by bricks. five men were arrested and a number of per- sons ciubbed as the result of a riotous demonstration made by striking street Car employees and their friehda this af- ternoon. <
 That the anfair did not result more seriously was due to the prompt arri- val of police reserves who broke up the crowd before 1t could be further in- famed
 A mass meeting of strike sympathfz- CTS was held this afternoon at . hall in the central part of the city at which heated speeches were made but the crowd did not become fired until an ad- dress was delivered by the wife of a discharged conductor. Her remarks SO worked on the feelings of the assem- blaze that when the meeting broke up an impromptu parade of over 2.0OO persons was formed and marched about the business district. There waas d long sprinkling of women in the crowd and they melted the assemblage to stone street cars. Four cars were stoned and although no one aboard wa s seriously hurt. several women passen- gers fainted.
 The procession finally halted at Fourth and Market Streets where more tnfiammatory speeches were made ana collision with six policemen at the corner followed. Sergeant Brockman, and Policeman Dalton received painful wounds from flying bricks but they and their four companions managed to ar- rest i've of the leaders of the uiob and got the reserves to the scene,
 Only liberal display of pistols ana free use of clubs by the reserves broke up the demonstration which was fast becoming serious. A police order ras issued forbidding any more parades.
 This was the third day of the strike and the company operated about one which were moderately patronIzed Ali service was suspended at niehtfaIl.
