TROOPS HuRRYINC
TO THE RESCUE
Foreigners at A1debi!, Persia,
Are Still Holding Out.

Teheran, Persia, Nov. 9.-News
from Ardebil is that the foreign resi-
dents hesieged in the Russian con-
sulate by tho revolving tribesmen are
holding out bravely, hoping to make
successful resistance until the ar
rival of achievements.
Seven thousand Persian troops are
now on their way to Ardebil, travel
ing by forced marches to relieve the
consulate.
The news that a Russian force has
been dispatched to the relief Of the
foreigners in Ardebil is received here
with the utmost suspicion. The gov
eminent has evidenced .distrust of
Russia for so active an interest for
the overthrow Of the deposed shah
and it is now believed that the upris-
ing would give them an excuse for
armed invasion.

Special Rules for the Fourth.

At times like the inauguration OF

special police rules. to preserve order
and permit the uninterrupted passage OF
the troops and organizations and to en-
able those in charge of the ceremonial
to carry out the official program with
out delay or difficulty. An enormous
crowd of people assemblies within mar

the entire local population there will
probably be present on the Capitol plaza
and along the line Of march next Thurs

perhaps half as many again making
a multitude of upward of half mill
lion people The problem of handling
this vast throug without undue conges-

circumstances, but with the stoppage

streets for hours, 1t becomes especially
taxing upon the patience and skill OF the
police force To lessen the chances of
misunderstanding and friction the super
intendent has made public his general
order to the force. which is printed else
where in this issue, setting forth the
precise conditions and limitations which
will prevail on the fourth.
In a case like this success depends
upon both the police and the people. The
former have their instructions, and it
is to be assumed that they will obey
them with fidelity both to the letter and
the spirit. Therefore 1t is now the part
of the citizens to study the special regu-
lations and to acquaint themselves with

will, cooperate heartily with those in
authority to the end that the police ar.

est preliminary means of so doing will be

just issued, with its admonitions and re-
strictions. With these limitations upon

Cleveland named him for the State De-

The report is that some of the repub-

republicans now as an anti-Bryan DEM

But Judge Taft has more to go upon
than had Mr. Cleveland. Mr.. Macveash
has been an anti-Bryan democrat for
twelve years. In that time he has voted

AS a business man and a student OF
money and markets, he rejected the free
silver policy to which the democracy COM

money he supported the party Of sound
