WASHINGTON, Oct. 4. Propositions of
u far reaching character concerning China
arc brliiK presented In rapid (.uccesslon to
this government. Tho State department
had no sooner disposed of ouo of those
proposlilonH today ly delivering b response
to tho (ionium government than It was
confronted by nn oven more Important
proposition submitted by the French goy
eminent and within half nn hour formally
seconded by thn IIuhhIiiii government.
The nrswer to (lermany covered tho sub
loct of punishing Chinese offenders and
mado known that the 1'nlted States had
Instructed Minister Conger along the lines
suggested by (lermany. Thcso Instructions
look toward securing the names of tho per
sons deserving i hastlaomcnt. also whether
ulimentH accord with tho gravity
of the crimen committed and finally In what
manner the United StuteB and the other
powi rs nro to ho assured that satisfactory
punishment Is Indicted. Aside from those
specific purposes of the nolo It Is regarded
as important ehlelly ns establishing the
most satisfactory relations between the
governments at Washington nnd Herlln.
Tho Kranco-ltUBBlan proposal takes a

complete settlement can be carried for

shortly after noon today nnd held u brb'f
conference concerning it. Half nn hour
later M. do Wollant. tho Kusslan chaw,
arrived nt the Stato department and
handed to Mr. Hay n note expressing Rm
Blan approval of the propositions Just sub
mitted by Franco. Mr. Hay Rave no formal
uiiswor to tho two communications, u.i
they will go first to tho president at
Canton.
Propositi Jliulc I'rmiee.
The Franco-UiiBBlan proposition Is under
lour heads, namely:
First Punishment to tho guilty parties.
Second Interdiction of tho Bhlpment of
urins Into China.
Third Payment of indemnity to tho pow-
oi s.
Fourth Sulllclent guarantlcH for tho future.
In addition, a suggestion Is made for tho
ratabllshment of a permanent legntlon
guard at Pokln; for tho razing of tho Tnku
forts and fot the maintenance of a lino
of communication between Pckln nnd the
lea
Tho lmoresslon hore. In advance of no-
llon on theso propositions by our govern
went, is that they conlnlu nothing essen
tln'ly unllttlng them to be Btibjccts of con
sideration In n final settlement. Tho dllll-
culty which Is likely to nrlso lies In tho
nin.-iriL' nf nroner limitations upon tho
scope of oneh head. This 1b particularly
truo of the subject of Riiarantles and, per
haps, of that of Indemnity. Still, as al
ready HUKKested. each Is undoubtedly n
most proper subject for discussion when the
final negotiations aro reached, anil, tnerc-
foro. M. bulciisso's broadest propositions
whllo llktly to confliuuo sopio time In re
ducing them to ultimate and binding torm
may bo Bald to have a fair reception await
ing them.
As to the Interdiction of nrms, the State
denartmont already, has Intimated that
there may he a question ns to Its wisdom
und there In reason to believe, also, thai
Germany will uot vlow that particular fea
ture with approval. Hut thero appears to
ho good reason to expect that a middle
ground will bo reached by confining tho
Interdiction of arms to a specified period
possibly to bo fixed by tho time required
by China within which to pay tho Indent
nlty. Tho chlet objection to tho proposi
tion Is In its being permanent In Its pres
cut form.

HAZLETON. Pa . Oct 4. An uprising of
striking miners In the Shamokln region
seemed Imminent for several hours late
today nnd thero were forebodings of n
serious clash between armed deputies mid
a lurgo body of strikers.
Prompt action of some of tho cool
headed officers of the miners' union finally
averted a conlllct. Some 3,000 strikers as
sembled nt Mount Carmel and headed by
a band of music started to march to
Trevorton, sixteen miles away, with the
avowed purpose of forcing those at work
at the North Franklin colliery to quit and
Join In the strike.
This was the only mine In operation In
tho region and tho strikers had become
angered at the refusal of the men thero,
to stop work. The marchers were in i.n
excited and wrathful state of mind. When
they had covered three miles of their
march they wero met by officials of their
organization, who, after much persuasion,
Induced the men to abandon their proposed
trip. The strikers then turned back.

"In rcputillfiin times the problem of Ameiiean labor Is to pet more.
In democratic times the problem which American labor has to solve Is
how to hold on the miserable remnants of what It has left."
"I believe Unit (lie whole future of society Is wrapped up In the suc

crous leisure may be plven to matiklnd for Intellectual and moral cul

said applied only to men who would re-

vnle ProprrO .
1IAZI.KTON. Pa., Oct. 4. Tho only Inci
dent of tho morning In the Hazluton region
worth mentioning was tho march of about
00 mine workers from tho Diamond, In tno
northern part of the city, to tne -o. i
shaft of tho I.ehlgh Valley Coal company
ii the eastern section of tho town, where
they expected to get more men to quit.
Sheriff Harvey, who Is In close toucli wltn
every section of Luzerne county, was early
informed of tho movo and wa3 watting tor
tho marchers at tho shaft when they
reached thero at 5 o'clock. The sheriff had
with htm several of his deputies and a half
dozen of the I.ehlgh Valley coal und iron
police. Thoy wero kept in the background
whllo tho sheriff reasoned with tho men in
an effort to Induce them not to go on the
company propertyr Ho told them If they
placed a foot on private ground no would
bo compelled to arrest them for trespass.
rho strikers took the county oluccr'B ad
vice and dispersed without even attempt
ing to carry out their plans. Sheriff Har
vey's mild method of treating with march
ers has won for hlni tho coufldeuco of tho
men. Ho makes It a rulo not to command
tho strikers to disperse, but to gently plead
with them to commit no violation of tho
law. During the sixteen days of tho strike
ho has faced ft nunibor of crowds of march
es nnd 1ms succeeded In keeping them
within tho bounds of tho law without pre
cipitating any disturbance.
Coxo llros. & Co.'s Deaver Meadow col
liery, the only operation on tho south sldo
which has not been tied up, Is reported by
tho company today to be working full-
handed. It Is said that a now set of work
ers who wero employed In tho Colcraln

through tho elfortB of the strikers nro work

Only tine Colliery Working.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 4. According to
Ocneral Superintendent Luther's report to
President Harris of tho Reading compan,
threo additional collieries of that company
failed to start up today. This leaves but
one colliery In operation out of thu thirty
nine tho company wns working previous to
tho mlno workers' strike.
The single property that Is producing coal
today Ib tho North Franklin colliery at Tre
vorton, in the upper end of tho Schuylkill
region. It employs about 700 men and boyv
mostly American citizens. Many of them
the official says, own their homes and they
havo expressed n determination to remain
ai work. To this end the company has pro
vided a strong guard of police, who are pro
vided for any emergency. Tho ordinary
capacity of the mlno Is about 8.000 tons
week, but Just now It Is turning out con
siderably more than that.
Smith i'nlkn to Deinncrnlx.
WYMOItK, Neb.. Oct. 4. (Spsolal.) A
Mr. Smith of York addressed a Binall crowd
at tho llryan and Stevenson headquarters
in this city laat night from a populUtlc
standpoint. The meeting was a very tame
affair and few people knew It was In p'rog
though many did so reluctantly. Mean
whllo Hoveral hundred doputlos had been
rushed to Troverton on special trains and
u serious conflict could scurcely have been
avoided had tho excited strikers arrived
at tho sccno und endeavored to carry out
their threats ugulnst the workmen. Later
It was nnnouueed that tho officials of thu
North Franklin, to prevent trouble, would
not opornto tho mine until tho strike was
settled.
Ocneral Gobln, ns a result of this new
disturbing element, rescinded his order for
Hnttrry C to return homo tomorrow. Af
fairs wero quiet In all other sections of the
field today und tho strikers scored Impor
tant gains in the closing of additional col
llorlcs in the Schuylkill district.
n Xotlee 'I'll ken of lnereime.
Not tho slightest notlco has been tukrn
by tho striking miners of tho 10 per cent
offered to tho employes by several of the
larger coal companies. As far ns Is defi
nitely known not ono striking miner has
accepted tho advance, hut on the other
hand more have quit tholr places, notably
In tho Schuylkill region, where threo ad
ditionnl collieries of the Reading company
were shut down. The United Mine Work
ers' officials aro still hard at work trying
to elope the few mines that continue In op
oration. All the organizers and national
committeemen wero In somo part of the
field during the day, only President Mitchell
being on duty at headquarters. Mr. Mitch
II did llttlo else than attend to his cor
respoudenco aud answer telephone call
from different sections of the region. When
ho was asked what was new In the strike
ituation ho briefly replied:
"Wo are watlng on tho operators."
Ho says ho had no Information today as
to the movements of the mlno owners otner
than that printed la the newspapers. II
nlso remnrked that the call for an anthra
cite miners' convention Is not yot In sight
When the convention 1b called, however,
Scranton will probably be chosen for It ho
caueo of Its availability for convention pur
poses. Put It Is too early yet to say that
convention will bo held thero next Wedncs
day.
Applications by striking miners for relief

About eighty men marched from Freeland
to Poud Creek today for tlio purpose of
securing forty men employed by tho Pond

Join the Btrlkers. Tho marchers reached
there at noon, Ju as the men wore leav

Tho strikers were met by J. Latrobo.
president of tho company, and Superin
tendent McFarland and explained to the
strikers that tho company was only de
veloping the mine und would send no coal
to market If tho strikers would not ask
the men to quit work. Tho marchers
ngreed to this proposition, and Mr. Lntrobo
took the Freelnnd men to the village gro
cery store nnd treated them to crackers
and apples.
Tho United Mlno Workers are making
extra efforts to got the men whu are still
working In tho Panther Creek valley to

izers havo been sent Into the valley with
tho hope of swinging tho l.r.OO men still
working thero Into lino. President Mitchell
said today that tho strikers of tho Lacka

Governor Roosevelt next spoko of tho
prosperity of tho farmers and cattlemen
and said: "You can borrow money for less
than you could four years ago. You get
higher prices for tho products. When cat
tlemen prosper It means that bimtuesB men
prosper. Somo peoplo seem to think that
tho banker and tho business man may
prosper whllo the farmer is down. It
would bo Just as Impossible for one of tho
Siamese twins to bo up nnd tho other
down." Ho noxt said 11 was tbo Innllenablc
right of ovary person to make a fool of
himself It ho wanted to, but ho thought
that this year, after tho demonstrations of
tho republican administration during tho
last four years, no person could vote tho
democratic ticket and say afterward that
he didn't know nny better.
Thon pointing at two cx-soldlers of the
regular army who were on tho platform tho
governor said:
"Please stand up; I want to show theso
people two of tho $15-a-month hirelings
Governor Poynter has spoken about." and
turning next to his hearers ho continued.
"Hero, gentlemen, nro two minions nf des
potism according to tho popullstlc Idea. 1
ask you, do thoy look like tyrants of Im
perialism?" Immediately tho crowd yelled "No, no,"
and tho governor proccoded with his speech,
nt tho conclusion of which people formed
In lino and with a band nt tho head
marched along back of Roosevelt's car
riage to tho train.
Democrat Afford n .Show.
Tho only disturbance during tho day was
nt Alnsworth, whero Frank Gillette, a
democrat, showed tho effect of his Inspi
ration by Interrupting Governor Roose
velt with tho remark:
"I wont to bet $10 to Jl that bryan will
carry tho state. I was u republican once,
but I am a blanket)' blanked blank now and
I want overybody to know It."
Governor Roosevelt stopped speaking
and then looking out over tho crowd, in
the direction from which enmo tho dis
turbance, said:
"Let tho backer of Agiiinaldo talk," nnd
addressing his remarks noxt to tho dis
turber continued: "You would not fight;
you ure perfectly harmless."
Men In tho crowd shouted: "Tako him
away, take him away," until a friend led
him off a hundred feet and attempted to
quiet him. Again ho shouted:
"Hurrah for Uryan; he's our man. Wo
want llryan and we're going to havo him.''
The man then singled out a republican nnd
attacked him In this fushlon:
"1 know that man; ho's a poker playor
and a gambler. I've seen him play pokor
when ho wouldn't pay hl3 debts."
Governor RoobovoU paid uo further at
tention to tho man except by asking what
his hearers would think If republicans
camo to populist meetings and cheered for
McKinley.
Cowboy Didn't I.lUr It.
The remarks of tho democratic disturbor
nearly Incited n riot and probably would
havo dono so had thero been more dem
ocrats or populists lu tho crowd. Tho
sentiment of tho gathering wns overwhelm

town, but Its entiro population was out

wearing tho Rough Rider costume par

left tho town they followed It over thn
pralrlo for nearly a quarter of a ratio, all
shouting und waving their hats.
At bussott the governor spoko to 1,000
persons. James Brighton presided over tho
meeting at that place. The train stopped

thero shook hands with over 100 school

and O'Nell Governor Roosovolt was given
a newspapor containing nn Interview with

nied that ho had ever referred to the sol

Thn Roosevelt special drew Into tho
Webster stteet station thirty min

tlmo had been vouchsafed at Fre

were lendy and waiting when Governor
Roosevelt arrived. There was no parley
at tho station. As tho governor uiucared
on tho platform he wns welcomed by Mayor

spectators hanked deep, and tho street out

men on foot nnd horseback. Governor
Roosevelt acknowledged the first of four
hours' continuous cheering.
Ho who came tu for a distinguished mark
of honor, however, wns Jesse D. Langdon,
Troop K. Roosevelt's Rough Riders, who
sat beside the governor's carriage on n
half broken mustang. As tho horso. plunged

"I'm mighty glad to sen you," ho said.
"Where did you get that nice burse?" Tho
animal wns making nn amiable effort to de

"1 Just brought him over from tho stock

Rider rather breathlessly. "Ho had novcr

tlmo for moio words nnd the Mexlrnn hit
drow tho fractious steed Into lino behind

Tho march began nnd Governor Roosevelt,
standing In tho cnrrlago, passed through
double tlluB of Rough Riders, mounted and
ou foot, tlambcaux club3 from all parts of
enstcrn Nebruska and ward marching corps
without number. Tho waiting throng
stretched west on Webster to Sixteenth and
south for half n mile. As tho cnrrlogo
passed tho marchers fell In behind and the
bright cavalcado Journeyed south to Farnam
Blrcet. At tho turn to the west there wus
a sight of Fpnrkllng towers und towering
walls to take tho visitor's Dream; every
light ou tho great bulldlnga on the lull con
tributed to u brilliant Illumination.
Tho column proceeded west to Nine

toward tho tent, whero an audlcnco of
COOO had been lung lu walling.

In spite of rearing horses, soaring rock

not an accident to mur tho success of tho
occasion. Mlko Dempsoy and Peter
Jorgensen, trusty dctcotlves, who wabod

wus far elsewhere. The squad of mounted
polbo In tho van had much to do In keep
ing n path open. In the depot Chief Don
ahue and Captains Iler and Hayes cleared
tho wuy on foot, pushing back tho mass of
people with their clubs. All wi.ro good
nuturcd, however, and did what they could
to lend a hand when tho Inconvenience
was not theirs.
Tho participants 'in tho parade were
bravely appareled nnd mounted, somo on
faintly reliables nnd somo on livery steeds
which they manifestly mistrusted. Tho
signs displayed bore all manner of pa
triotic sentiments, ono of the most signifi
cant being tho phrnso: "You cannot cro.ito
wealth by law. but by labor." Tho Rough
Riders' suits were particularly decorative.
