GRAY'S FRIENDS
BECOME ACTIVE
Headquarters to Be Opened in
Washington to Boom Della
ware JuriSt.

Washington, April 5.-Supporters of
George Gray of Delaware for the Demo-
cratic nomination for president, have
completed arrangements for establish
ing headquarters i'm Washington, and
tomorrow they will actively enter upon
a campaign In behalf of the Delaware
statesman Richard ]. Beemish of
Philadelphia, who will be in charge of
the bureau, states that the movement
is being made without the aid or en-
.couragement of Judge Gray, who, it is
added, has not said word nor done
anything that could be construed as
seeking the nomination. The fund that
is to finance the Washington head
quarters has been subscribed, it is said,
by few Delawareans and Pennsylva-
mans.
The work TO be done will be supple
mented by that of a similar bureau in
Judge Gray's home town, Wilmington.
A league of Gray clubs is also in prog
ress of formation The work of this
organization, according to Mr.. Beemish
will be done largely in New Jersey
Pennsylvania, New York. the New Eng
land states and the south.
The presidential boom of John A
Johnson was today launched upon the

ern originality when to every Wash

ject of the movement might be, it was
indisputable that Japan's emigration
policy had been considerably affected
thereby and ii was not easy to sever
entirely the dispatch of the fleet from
the policy Japan had lately pursued to-
ward the United States in this connec-
ton. The analogous problem in the
Dominion OF Canada had likewise a
bearing upon the case. Canada was
British territory and Great Britain was
under obligations 20 protect the inter-
ests of her colony. The count was,
therefore, of the opinion that the Brit
ish government had rendered to the
Toxic cabinet certain advice. either di-
rectiy or indirectly. in view of which
il had become impossible for the Jap
anese government 10 adhere strictly to
what might be termed strong for
eign policy. and the country had been
compelled to acquiesce to d certain ex-
tent in the negotiations obtaining
abroad.

We're followed tonight by serious riot

vigorous action on the part of the
police and troops. The Tioting broke
out in different parts of the city, as
though by a preconcerted plan. Troops
which had been patroling and others
that had been held in reserve were inn
mediately ordered into action. and they
repeatedly charged the mObs that in
places filled the streets but without eff
feet. The rioters used clubs, stones and
whatever other weapon was at hand

Mob Quickly Dispersed.

This determined action upon the part
of the authorities seemed to have the
desired effect, and shortly the mobs
were well dispersed. At a late hour
most of the Republican voters had gone
to their homes, but bands of youths
continued to demonstrate before the
churches. They confined their disorders
to shouting, however, and a recurrence
of serious disturbances during the re-
mainder of the night did not seem prob
able
With the exception of minor disor-
ders at AMOS and Alcantara, the cleo
tons passed off quietly throughout the
country, so far as the present advices
indicate. In this city slight disturb
ances occurred during the day in GER
tain sections, owing to the numbers of
electors who suspected that unfair
methods were being adopted. There
was much hOoting at and deriding of
the police, but the latter did not hest
tate to scatter the crowds with a strong

Strong police guards We're assigned to

No untoward incident is reported from

The ballot boxes, according TO the
traditional custom, were installed in
churches, and the voting, due to the
agitation throughout the country and
the active campaign of the Republi-
cans, probably was the heaviest in Por-
tugars history. The large vote cast
and the great number of candidates
make the count slow. and because of

Republicans Crying Fraud.

Nevertheless, a large monarchist CO.
alition majority, composed of the two
old ''rotative" parties, the Nationalist
Clerical and the Tranquist groups, is
assured. Ninety-nine out of 146 depu-
ties to be chosen, already reported ell
ected, are monarchists.
In a general way the elections turned
out as planned by the parties i'm con-
troll. The Republicans who had but
t&o seats in the dissolved parliament,
increased their representation to posi-
bly, twenty. In Lisbon they swept the
pOpulous sections of the city. but ger
rymanders including the outside dis
tricts offset in a measure this advan-
tage. The Republican leaders are rails
ing the cry of fraud. They claim that
while government pressure seemingly
was relaxed, the old electoral machin-
cry was in full opera ton, because of
the fear on the part of the government
of a great Republican movement, and
that therefore the elections do not rep
resent in any way the sentiment of the
country.
Limited Suffrage.
AS the suffrage is limited to those
who can read and write, or who pay
certain taxes, the Republicans contend
that it was an easy matter for the au-
thorities to manipulate the register list
against the Republican partisans
among the masses, so per cent of whom
are illiterate. Nevertheless, leaders
| like Machado, Almeida and Cunha say
/ that the seats they won give them suf-
| ficient strength TO wage open wal
| against the old regime as soon as par
| lament reassembles.
The monarchists apparently are sat
I isfied with the result of the election
saying that the extravagant claims OF
the Republicans are utterly disproved.
