PEACE REIGNS
 IN CHINATOWN
Tong War Is Ended and Business
 | Is Resumed

New York, Oct. 31.-Peace reigned in Chinatown today. Gone were the harried yellow faces, the scurring figures, and in their places were crowds of shoppers who casually went about their business as though the feud between the Tongs had never existed.
 News that a truce had been signed travelled through the quarter last night with remarkable rapidity. There was noticeable lifting of the tension that has pervaded the section since the feud between the On Le- ongs and the Hip Sings began.
 The only reminder of the bitter war that has cost eight lives and a score of injuries in this city was the large number of bluecoats who continued their watch over all places where Orientals are known to con- gregate. The police department, not withstanding the announcement of a two weeks armistice, decided not to relax their vigilance for the pres ent at least.

 Republicans declared that the difference within the party would not endanger the Republican pres idential ticket in Delaware, while tho Democrats, inspired by the Re- publican difficulties, expressed themselves as hopeful of complete success for national and state tic kets.
 Because of differences among three factions favoring the LaFol- lette and Wheeler candidates, the independent movement did not show great activity in the cam paign.

 TRENTON, N. J., Oct. 4.-John w. Davis, in a speech here this afternoon said, ''in this election, the American people must vote their confidence or lack of confidence in the present ad- ministration.
