ALARM is FELT IN JAPAN
Said at Toxic That Safety of For
eigners is Menaced.

Toxic, Oct 19.-Despite the assur-
ances given both by the Chinese gov
ernment and the revolutionary lead
ers In the Central Chinese provinces
that the rights of foreigners will be
respected, officials here regard the sit
uation as likely to develop phases
alarming to outside nations. The
maintenance of a scrupulous impair
tiality will be very difficult at times
and it is certain that any suspicion Of
interference on the part of foreigners
would arouse tremendous Indignation
among the Chinese.
Some feeling against Japanese has
already been noted at Peking, where
Chinese merchants and financiers have
freely asserted that Japan melted the
revolution in order to create a crisis
which would prevent the American
European loan. In revolutionary cir
cles, on the other hand, reports are
being circulated that Japan Is aiding
the imperial government, and this inn
preston has already created an an
tagonism against Japan in the south
and is said to have resulted in the
beginning of an anti-Japanese boycott
in South China.

With Election of Wisconsin Senator.
Milwaukee, Oct. 19.-Further in
quiry into the testimony of Thomas
Morris, lieutenant governor of Wiscon-
sin, that he had been told that Edward
Hines, the lumberman, helped to put
over the election of Senator Isaac
Stephenson, was deferred by the sena-

Lieutenant Governor Morris re-

He repeated his assertion that he met

of an attorney named McCordick in
Chicago and that while there Cook
told him that Hines and Stephenson
each put up" s55, 900 to secure the
election, and that Robert j. Shields

Morris said he could not remember
the full name Of the Chicago attorney.
AS Charles f. Littlefeld, counsel for

Hepburn, but will resume our ex-
animation of the primaries. The tes-
timony of the lieutenant governor was
not new to the committee The COM
mittee had heard of it before leaving
Washington. II was the intention to
go into the matter in due time Mr.
Morris has given only secondary tes-
timony; that is, what he has heard
others say. Unless it can be substan-
tiated by primary testimony. it is
probable the committee will disregard
it altogether. The persons from whom

ONLY ONE LIKELY
TO STAY ON PANEL
Six Jurymen Passed by Defense
in McNamara Trial.

Los Angeles, Cal, Oct. 19.-Despite
the fact that six veniremen nave al
ready been passed by the defense in
the Mcnamara case for cause 1t was
made absolutely certain by develop
ments that only one, John w. Roberts,
has possible chance of remaining
through the trial.
His fate is still undecided as far as
the state is concerned, but he prob
ably will be challenged because he
boldly told Darrow that after expert
ences with the operation of non
union glass factory, and after person,
al investigation In Muncie and Indiana
cities, he was convinced that the best
men are within the union ranks
Therefore he unionized his factory.
He also said that inasmuch as cap.
ital is organized, labor should have
the same right.

II. Y. Quackenbush, who swore he
never had an opinion OF the guilt OF
innocence of Mcnamara as to how the
Times was destroyed. The defense
produced witnesses who alleged
Quackenbush openly asserted that
unions are inimical to the worlds
progress; that the McNamaras "are
guilty as hell' and ought to be tried
and hanged, and that If he had his
way they would be given short shift
Attorney Darrow stated to the court
that he would prove these things and
asked that Guackenbush be excused
for cause.

SENATOR CLAPP
FLAYS PRESIDENT
Calls Veto Of Statehood Bill
Act Of Tyranny.

Chicago, Oct. 19.-Senator Moses f..
Clapp bitterly denounced President
Taft at the mass meeting of progress
sive Republicans here. Clapp said in
part:
Now, whether you believe in the
recall or not, / think you will agree
with me that it is not for you to say
whether the people of Arizona shall
have the recall. We had this question
up in congress. We said the people OF
Arizona must vote on the question
again, and whatever way they voted,
they would be allowed to come into
the Union And, my friends, the pres
ident of the United States vetoed that
resolution, and one was passed pro-
viding that the people of Arizona must
vote again but must vote against the
recall, though they can put it into
their constitution after admission.
"A fine lesson to teach people on
the threshold of admission to this
Union! What, think you, would say
the disembodied spirits of those men
whose bodies lie moldering on the bat
tlefields of the republic, if, looking
down, they could realize that the price
of admission to the Union was a stul-
tification of the electorate of the in
dividual state?

REBELS ABLE TO
HOLD THEIR own
First Clash With Imperial
Forces at hankOw.
BATTLE IS INDECISIVE

Government Troops Are Forced to Re-
treat, but Revolutionists Exhaust
Their Ammunition and Also Re-
tire-Gunboats on the River Cover
the Landing of Empires Defenders.
Hankow, Oct. 19.-The first battle
since the arrival of the imperial
troops from the north was fought on
the north bank of the Han river, just
west of this city.
1t was indecisive, however, although
the revolutionists temporarily drove
the imperial troops back from their
position. But in doing so they ex-
hausted their rifle ammunition and
were forced to retire.
The revolutionists, with infantry
and artillery, attacked the govern
ment troops, which were reinforced
from the Chinese warships in the riv-
er and supported by the guns of the
feet.
While the fighting was in progress
the thirteen foreign war vessels in
the river landed a joint force under
command of Vice Admiral Sir Alfred
l. Winsloe, commander of the Brit
ist Eastern fleet, who, because of his
seniority, has been given the diree-
tion of the men engaged in the protec.
ton of the foreign concessions.
The Red Cross neutral camp, in
charge of Mr.. MacWillie of the AmeTi-
can mission, received and cared for
the rebel wounded.
Forces Equally Divided.
About 1000 revolutionists were pit.
ted against an equal number of loyal
soldiers and it was a fair fight
A renewal of hostilities may take
place soon, as ii appears TO be the
plan Of the rebel leaders to force the
fighting before the imperial troops
have been further strengthened.
The latter had intended to delay an
attack upon Wuchang until their mum.
bers were sufficient to make victory
probable and it had been rumored
that there would be no battle before
next Saturday.
The rebels, who occupy Wuchang
Hankow and Hanyang, were alive TO
the government purpose and during
the night 1000 men crossed the Yang
tsekiang river from Wuchang and al
daybreak they fell upon the imperial
camp. They attacked with dash and
the government troops, taken some
what at a disadvantage, responded
loyalty.
The fighting was severe. but it is
impossible to estimate the casual
ties, as the correspondents were not
permitted near the firing line, and
those who witnessed the battle from
the river were fired upon.
The engagement continued for sew
eral hours, while the combined land
and ship forces of the imperials were
driven some distance back, and the
rebels, retiring, recrossed the river
30 Wuchang.
