Senator lUnna devotod the day to speech-making In Indiana. He began the day work at Evansvllle and between that city. and Indianapolis he made nine stops..- At Union, where the crowd waa made up largely of miners, he discussed the recent anthracite strike. -Senator Hanna waa scheduled to begin speaking In Tom llnson hatl here at 8:30. Long before 8 the auditorium waa literally packed, even the aisles were filled and thousands wore turned aaVay from the doore. After referring to the rapid strides Amer ican Industrie and commerce had made since 1896 he said: I do not propose to go Into the trust question. Hut I nay that In this great era if development, in the evolution which Is taking place all over our country, we must contend for otir rights to do ss others have done when they secured foreign mRrkets and control them ty sheer power and force of aggregated capital; Of our great corporations eomo may be bad, hut Dot all; at any rate It It natural evolution, baseil on the right of every man to do whatever he pleases with his own, under proper restrictions, that has brought thm about. , . . There Is no danger in the organisation of caplial and Industry as such, but along with, It must como .the organization of labor. .... I am opposed to wasteful strikes and lockout. I deprecate the difference be tween these great Hwers that bring about a. chana-e of things which Is wasteful to the last degree. Mv proposition Is that we recognise the right of labor to organise, treat worklngmen IhrtlvliluRlly as fellow men and then Americanise the unions. Kit them to our Institution, bring them Into contact with and make them a port of our gfeat; economic powers, consult and con sider 4em when their Interests are at slake and consider them from a standpoint, as I say, of the golden rule. He also apoke of the anthracite strike and of the action of the bituminous miners In, refusing to vote for a sympathetic strike. Their action had proved to the world that a labor organization could respect a con-, tract. He also claimed that the republican party bad done more to advance the Inter est! of the worklngmen than any other political force in the country and that from Its foundation on broad lines, with utilitarian ideas, it s the party that laboring people should support. Senator Hanna nearly broke down at the close of the speech. His strength seemed to fail blm and he had to reach for the stand, dragging his body over to it, where he rested his hand. After a moment's hesi tation he announced that hla physical con dition would not allow blm to say anything more and was helped to hla chair by Sena tor Fairbanks and 8ocretary Whlttaker of the republican state committee.

He aenounced Tern L. Johnson's free trad n4 single tax: platform la Ohio. ' In conclusion be appealed for ' a republican congress to uphold President Roosevelt In what be has attempted for the welfare of the' country. v He waa cheered vociferously at the end of the address.' JOHNSON DENOUNCES M'LEAN Bitter Fight Developes Within Dem ocratic Ranks la Stat of Ohio. CINCINNATI. Oct. , 23. Mayor Tom L. Johnson of Cloveland, who Is recognized a the democratic leader in Ohio this year and aa the probable opponent of Senator Hanna next' year and a candidate tor the prealdency in 1904, created quite a sensa tion here tonight by attacking certain ele ments in ' his own party, especially John R. McLean, both Individually and as the proprietor of tbe Cincinnati Enquirer, and Lewis G. Bernard, aa chairman of the democratic committee of Hamilton county. Mayor Johnson'a large campaign tent, which has a seating capacity of 2,000, had all standing room taken and many were unable to gain admittance. It waa gen erally expected that Mayor Johnson would devote his time mostly to' replying to the address of Senator Hanna her last night, which waa largely devoted, to Johnaon and bia Issues. '.While Johnson referred to Sen ator Hanna' speech- In most caustic terma, he devoted hla speech mostly to what be termed "the local traitors In the demo cratic party," and bia references to Mr. McLean and Chairman Bernard were aa bitter aa bis fluent language could make them. He not only read them out of the party, but challenged them to meet hlra in bis tent or elsewhere on the charges that be made politically against them. Hon. Cbarleo W. Baker, who waa the demo cratic caucua nominee for aenator against Foraker before the legislature last winter, presided and opened the meeting with eulogies-on Johnson and Blgelow. Blgelow waa the first speaker and made a bitter attack on Chairman Bernard. He said be bad nothing personally against Bernard, but "politically I abominate and denounce everything for which Bernard stands. We cannot aak republicans to vote against the boss in their party when we have a worse boss In our party."

STABLE CURRENCY, IS NEEDED Native Flllplao, hot Graduate of Oi ford, Goca t Washington In ' Behalf of Islands. ' SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23. Raimon Rex yes Lala, a native Filipino, graduate of Ox ford and naturalised American, has arrived here on his way from Manila to Washington to tell something of the present urgent needs of the Philippines. "Legislation Is much needed for the Phil ippines," said Lala, when seon at his hotel, "We poor Filipinos need a stablo currency. We cannot do business with tbe states with out having a fixed standard of money. In the old days silver was generally worth three-fourths as much as gold and at the worst two for one. But now silver and It Is a silver country, though the government demands all Its payment In gold silver Is lower yet, 12.37 for every dollar In gold. "To secure S400 In gold when I was leav ing for the states I had to pay something like $950 In silver. The worst of It Is that there la no established ratio. The commis sion can make It anything they see fit. The Islands need railroads. They need more reliable labor for my country, for the labor ing class is very uncertain. If tbey make a few dollars they don't care to work until the money is spent." NEW SALT RECEIVERS ASKED BUI la Filed Aliened Present Men Are Incompetent t Act. TRENTON, N. J., Oct. 23.

TO MOVE OUT OF SHANGHAI France, Great Britain and Germany Finally Beach an Agreement. SOLDIERS ARE TO EVACUATE THE CITY Xegrotlatloaa Also Bring: Ahont aa I im portant Extension of the Often Door roller t raed by Secretary Hay. PARIS, Oct. 23. From suthorllatlve sources the correspondent of te Asso ciated Preae has learned that France, Great Britain and Germany .bate concluded an agreement providing for the military evacuation of Shanghai by their forces. The negotlationa have also brought about an important extension of the open door policy, ss urged by Secretary Hay! The agreement affects not only Shanghai, but tbe entire Yangste Klang Valley, which tbe powers sre seeking to develop for commercial purposes. Tbe date of tbe evacuation la anil open, but a leading official of the foreign office expressed the belief that It will undoubt edly be accomplished by January 1.. About 1.200 troops will participate In the evacua tion. ..'. . . - The Vaited States Is not a direct party to the negotiations, but, baa - been fully advised of the. intentions .of the powers. Secretary Hay advised M. Delcaime- that the United States government was In sympathy with the plan. The officials here say the United States shares in the benefits of the agreement as to equality of treatment. WASHINGTON, Oct. 23. The news of the agreement to fully evacuate Shanghai was gladly received at the State department. The United States' government some time ago, at the Instance of the Chinese gov ernment, began quietly but persistently to bring pressure to bear upon the powers concerned in the occupation of the place to evacuate It In conformity with tbe stip ulations of the treaty of Pekln. Not having participated directly In the occupation, It waa necessary for tbe United States to move discreetly In approaching the other nations on thia subject, but the advances were well received and It soon appeared that the only difficulty In bringing about the desired evacuation was the in disposition of each of the occupying powers to take tbe initiative. The last to hold out was England, and as lately as last week It waa stated that It wsa objecting simply for the purpose of making sure of getting a fair ahare of cer tain Important trade advantages in the ex ploitation of the Yangtse valley. It Is gathered from the Shanghai advices of today that this object haa now been se cured and It is of course certain, not withstanding the fact that the United States does not sign the treaty of evacua tion, that we will participate in these ad vantages.

Qfrwr EDUCATE THE BLACK MAN Dr. Washington Gladden Praise School Work in South. COLOR DISFRANCHISEMENT INDEFENSIBLE It May Be Right to Stop Illiterate aad Immoral Men Voting, bat Hair Mast Apply ta All Races. NEW LONDON, Conn., Oct. 21. The con vention of tbe American Mission association came to an end tonight after Dr. Wash ington Gladden of Ohio, who was re-elected presldeut, had delivered tbe annual ad dress. An Bddrrss by Rev. H. H. Proctor of Georgia was listened to with particular in. terest. He said In part: As a race we nearoes form one-tenth of the ' nation and one-third of the south. There are 7,M).000 negroes In the south, and of these at least 4.OW.O0O are outside of any church. There Is a real breach between the old church and the new negro. Unless It be nnecj we snail reap a crop or discs; in fidels. The young negro today la doing an Immense amount of thinking. Unless the church can answer the d-ep Questions he Is propounding he will turn away from It. Education I Patriotic. Dr. Washington Gladden later referred to tbe same subject and said: The men who are seeking; to co-operate with the southern people In promoting edu cation have undertaken a most patriotic service. Their efforts are not directed toward the education of the negro It la promotion of education In the whole coun try. Irrespective of race, sex or creed, to which they have pledged themselves. If Is not merely an educational crusane oi mr north In the south; southern men are In the front of it; the north I rising In re sponse to the call of the south with the purpose of using Its larger resources where ihey are needed most. Education prosecuted along these lines must result in a more intelligent and a kindlier public sentiment toward the negro and in a better estimate of his rights and CRpabllltlea. Those measures by which, In most of the southern states, the negro haa been prac tically disfranchised represent an ominous but now permanent tendency. The dis franchisement of ignorance or of moral worthlessness is not to be.1epr?eated, but the drawing of the line of political priv ilege between the Ignorant white man and the Ignorant black man In a wrong that cannot endure. It can only be Justified by the de.. berate purpose to reduce the race to a subject condition. The southern peo ple are essentially a chivalrous people and they cannot build their cltlrenshin on any measure of Injustice to the wesk. They must prevail, becauae this is a Christlitn age and Christian nation, and He who counts the poor and needy among Ilia friends has come to reign, and will reign until He has put, all His enemies under His feet. FIREMEN MAY ACT (Continued from First Page.) from tbe Wyoming region to New York at noon. Some Miner Still Idle. HAZLETON,' Pa., Oct." 23. Only two of I he twenty-eight collieries In the, Haile ton district resumed operations today. Those operating are the Hazleton mines breaker of the Lehigh Valley Coal' com pany anS tbe upper Lehigh mine of tbe Upper Lehigh Coal company. The Lehigh Valley Coal company expects later in the day to start up its York ton and Hazle ton shaft mines with about half the usual force of men, the workings not yet being in condition to give employment to all bands. Because of high water or other conditions no effort was made to start the twenty-eight collieries Indicated. Some of them are aura to. resume before the end of the week- The collieries of Q. B. Markle & Co. at Jeddo, Highland, Oakdale and Ebervale are In shape for resumption, but only a small number of men made application for their places and gave their verbal assent to abide by the decision of the arbitration commlsion as required by a notice posted yesterday. John Marklo announced that aa soon as a sufficient number of men comply with the notice work will be re auracd. . None of the seven collieries of Coxe Brothers and Company resumed, because the foremen asked the men to sign an agreement not to interfere with nonunion men under penalty of discharge. The men had been instructed by the union leadera not to sign agreement and all returned home. Xonanlonlat Starts Fire. Tbe Derringer collieries of Coxe Brothors is on fire and the firemen have been sent there to get It under control. The fire originated. It la claimed, through the care lessneis of a workman employed during the strike. Everything was In readiness for resump tion at the Cranberry and Crystal Ridge rollierloa of A. Pardee and Company, but as the men reported for work they were asked to sign an agreement similar to that pre pared by Coxe Brothers and Company. This tbey refused, to do and tbe entire union force returned borne. - At Silver Brook the mine workers re fused to return to work because it Is al leged the company will not take back twenty-seven of the former employes. Troops were stationed at or near most of the collieries thU morning, but no trouble of any kind occurred. Following Is a copy of the agreement which the employes of A. Pardee tt Co. were asked to sign. As a ronditlop precedent to my employ ment by A. Pardee & Co., I do hereby solemnly promise not to Interfere with or multil In any way any nonunion men or anj other men now at work or who. have worked during the strike, or who may work nerearter lor my employers, and do further agree to work with them as witn any oiner employe. NEW YORK. Oct. 23. No appreciable effect from tbe ending of the coal strike baa yet been felt In tbe way of lifting the steamship business on this aide out of tbe extreme depression Into which It baa been thrown, says the Journal of Com merce. The movement to Import coal as sumed mucb greater proportion than generally auppoaed. Nearly 100 steamers have been chartered to load full cargoes of coal this way, only twenty of which have arrived. One effect of tbe rush of coal-laden ton nage thia way is demoralization In transat lantic) ahipplng on tbe eastward voyagea. Tbe statement is declared by steamship agents to be In no sense an exaggeration that grain can be moved In cargo lota at thia time at lower ratea tbaa ever before. Large steamers are now available for picked porta in the United Kingdom at Is Id per quarter. Some yeara ago the regular lines offered to carry grain free of charge In or der to save the expenss of ballast. Tbe steamship of todsy, however, is equipped with water ballast facilities, so that free transportation of grala or any other product ia no longer a probability. Accident la a Shaft.

The Reading Railway company officials do' not expect any coal mined today to be brought down be- i fore late tonight or early tomorrow. They do not believe, however, that anthracite will be moving in any great quantities before early next week.
