StruCtion of BattIeShip.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE L. s.
battleship North Carolina is safe in
Beirut harbor The American cruiser
Tennessee reported early today to the
navy department that she had been in
wireless communication with the North
Carolina yesterday and that the ship
was safe in Beirut harbor.
The North Carolina has been out Of
touch with the navy department since
Nov. >, when a wireless dispatch came
TO the department from her. Shortly
afterwards all cable and wireless COM
municaton with the ship was cut off.
No anxiety for her safety was felt
at the navy department but several
days ago, when rumOrs that she had
been blown up by "A mine were set
afloat Sec'y of the Navy Daniels or
dered Commander CrOnin of the bu-
reau Of operations To spare no effort
10 reach the cruiser. For some time
this effort was without avail.
Early today, however. the cruiser
Tennessee at Mytilene, Greece, report
ed that she had been in cOmmunica-
ton with the vessel and all anxiety
was relieved.
The North Carolina was sent abroad
at the out break OF the war 10 carry
gold TO American tourists stranded in
Europe. After she had completed
this mission she was sent TO Mediter-
ranean ports with the aim Of prepar-
ing for possible trouble there. The
navy department made further ef-
forts today to get in direct cOmmuni-
cation with the North Carolina.

WAR; IKE ACTIVITY ALONG
COAST OF NOVA SCOTIA
Guns Mounted and Battleships Patrol
Waters Before Canadian
Forts.

PORTLAND, Ne, Nov. 12.-Pas-
sengers arriving here from Halifax,
n S. state that warlike activity has
increased in that city since the defeat
of the British squadron under Ad-
miral Sir Christopher Craddock off
the coast of Chile. This is so in both
naval and military circles. Two Of the
big 12-inch guns that were in position
on the fortress at Spion Kop have
been removed 10 the batJleship Glory.
There are still four of these big guns
at the fort besides four % inch guns.
Two 12-inch guns have also been
placed on Fort McNab at the eastern
entrance 10 the harbOr.
A 3OO-ton vessel filled with stone
has been sunk in the eastern passage
and the harbOr has been mined, leav-
ing only a narrow chanpel for ship
ping. Government steamers are on
duty day and night off the entrance
TO the harbor and all shipping Is held
up before entering.
Two thousand men, mostly British
artillerymen. man the fortress. All of
these precautions have been taken be-
cause of the possibility that German
cruisers may come this way.
There are never fewer than four
British warships within the harbor of
Halifax and there is also a torpedo
boat with a speed Of 80 knots which
is kept for scout duty and patrol duty
i is reported that a swift battle
cruiser is now on its way 10 Halifax

Martin. 119 y. Hill St, about the head
and shoulders with a buggy whip and
the latter is said TO have struck at

them as ammunition IN the argument.
The dissension started over the
bricks. They lay in a neat pile in the
rear OF the Philadelphia restaurant,
where Luther had driven up in his
buggy 10 cart them away. Martin also
wanted the bricks and declared that
Eustice Poledor. proprietor OF the
restaurant and confectionery. had told
him 10 take them away.
The two men exchanged bitter
words. which soon resulted in blows,
according TO witnesses. Martin swung
blow 1T Luther with heavy club,
so the latter states. but the blow
passed over his head and struck his
horse. Tx was then that Luther
reached for the whip and laid upon
Martin with il.
Luther paid a fine of S11 in city
court Thursday morning. The bricks
have not yet been taken away.

The convention party got down TO
common work and there was interest
manifested in the Tennessee split del
egatiOn that will probably provoke a
fight in the convention.
The big fight, however, that Will
overshadow all others, is the one to
shelve DIR. Anna b. Shaw and put for
ward Mrs. Desha Breckenridge as the
leader of the national association.
Next to the question OF leadership
will be the adoption Of the plan under
which the association will work,
whether il shall be the Susan B. An

amendment that provides for state
submission instead OF sweeping suf-
frages intended under the Anthony
amendment

COMMISSION HAS
GIVEN VOICE TO
EXPLOITED MAN
So Declares Chairman Walsh of
Industrial Relations Body,
Stirring Labor Delegates In
to Frenzy of Enthusiasm.

PHILADELPHIA Nov. 12.- With
more than two score committees con-
sidering important business prepara-
tory 20 making reports and with the
time limit for introducing resolutions
set at midnight tonight, the delegates
to the annual convention of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor again today
spent the time listening to addresses
by several representatives. Before
the speeches more resolutions were
introduced.
When the convention opened at
$3.50 o'clock this morning it was
learned that Max Hays, general or
ganizer of the international Typo
graphical union of Cleveland, Ohio, a
socialist leader. was the choice OF the
socialists for president of the fedora
ton and it is their intention to make
every effort to prevent the reelection
of Samuel GOmpers.
Walsh in Eloquent Address.
The first forecast of what is to be
contained in the coming report of the
United States industrial relations COM
mission came in an impassioned pro-
labor and prO-union speech with with
Frank L. Walsh of Kansas City. chair
man of the commission and friend OF
Pres't Wilson, threw the convention
into an uproarious frenzy of en-
thusiasm. Mr.. Walsh shouted, while
the house rocked, that his eommlS-
sion had proved the necessity of the
principle of collective bargaining for
labor-that the time has come when
the government would examine men
for fitness before they are permitted
to attain industrial leadership. The
Investigations had convinced him that
every man was entitled to the full
fruits of his own toll"
Before he was through he was
straining his voice and flinging his
words out through a deafening roar
of cheers. His commission had tried
to keep a balance, he said. 1t had
embraced and listened TO all classes.

HEATED DEMAND
ON PRESIDENT
DRAWS REBUKE
Wilson Tells Delegates of Negro
Association Question of
Segregation is Not Matter
of Politics or Passion.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 12.-In a
heated. sensational manner negro del
egates from the National Independent
Equal Rights league today demanded
from Pres't Wilson on the abolition of
segregation In the government depart
ments and received a sharp and point
ed rebuke from the executive.
The president told w. Monroe Trot-
ter of the association that Trotter had
spoken TO him as no other man had
since he assumed the presidency and
indicated that the next time the or
ganization called upon him it would
have to select a new spokesman.
The president made a lengthy ad-
dress to the negro delegates, begin
ming by rebuking them for dragging
politics into the question and saying
If they had made a mistake in voting
for him they ought TO vote against
him. He said it was a human and not
a political question that confronted
the1a.l He said he had not sought the
presidency Of the United States. He
added that his present burdens were
almost too much for hun IN flesh to
bear. Shortly after this point in his
address Trotter began to interrupt
the president and TO question him on
various points.
The president declined TO submit
to this saying that TrOtter evidently
was trying To put passion into his
questions and that he was speaking to
him, Woodrow Wilson, the man,
rather than the president of the
United States. The president declared
that he believed the interests of the

making him independent of the white
race. He said the segregation was
undertaken to avoid friction and
trouble between tho two races and
that no matter how much they might
deplOre prejudice existing between the
whites and the negroes, they must
take into account the fact that il eX-
lists The probe cannot be dealt
with in a sentimental but IL a prac-
teal way, he said.
Here Are Trottcr'S Remarks.
Among the remarks made by w. NJ.
TrOtter which aroused the president S
resentment were the following:
What a change has been wrought
when only two years ago you were
heralded as perhaps Abraham Lin
coin and now the cOlored leaders who
supported you IRE bounded as false
leaders and traitors 10 their race.
What change segregation has

every democratic candidate save those
outspoken against segregation. The
Onl-- democrat elected governor in the
eastern states was Gov. Walsh OF
Massachusetts. who appealed TO you
by letter to stop segregation.
Thus have COlored Americans
shown how they detest segregation.
In fact, SO intense is their resent
ment that the movement 10 divide
this solid race vote and make peace
with the national democracy so sus-
piciouSly revived when you ran for
the presidency and which some of our
families for two generations have
been risking all 20 promote, bids fair
