Father Crowley, the ex-Priest, Was Cause of a Sensation In Chicago. CHICAGO. Nov. 3. There was an In tensely dramatic scene in Holy Name Ca thedral today, when. In the presence of fully 1000 parishioners, Jeremiah J. Crow ley, the excommunicated Roman Catholic priest, was publicly humiliated by order of the authorities of the church. Father Crowley had entered the church unob served, passing up the center aisle, and had taken a seat almost under the pulpit Solemn high mass was being celebrated at the time. When the presenco of .Father Crowley became known, Rev. Francis J. Barry, chancellor of the archdiosese of Chicago, was hurriedly sent for. Upon entering the cathedral he went straight to the seat whore the excommunicated clergyman was kneeling and ordered him to leave the church. Father Crowley re fused to 0, saying: "Put me out. If you dare." The strain was intense, and one woman In the congregation fainted. There was no resort to force, however. Chancellor Barry signaled to a man In the choir loft and the sound of the .organ ceased and the singing of the choir was hushed. The priests on the altar stopped the solemn service at the end of the "Gloria," and walked to the benches and laid aside their golden vestments. The altar boys marched out of the sanctuary through a side door, and the priests, clad In their cassocks"fol lowed. The next moment- the hundreds of Incandescent lights In the vaulted arches were extinguished, and the candle lights on the altar were put out. The strain was broken when Chancellor Barry ap peared In the pulpit and said: "Owing to the presence in this sacred edifice of an excommunicated priest, the solemn high mass has been suspended. "We will proceed with a low mass." No sermon was delivered, however, and the mass was at an end before the con gregation was calm again. The parish loners lingered around tha cathedral and watched the deposed priest as he hurried away. None spoke to him. ' Last Rail of Siberian Line. LONDON, Nov. 4.

NEW YORK, Nov3.-The members of tne New York Board of Trade and Transportation have Issued a call for a special meeting, to consider "commer cial reciprocity." The call Is addressed to members of the board who are en gaged In manufacturing and is signed by William Carroll, of the American Leather Company; the Eaton, Cole & Burnham Company, E. H. Cole, treas urer; the Mergenthaler Linotype Com pany, P. T. Dodge, president; H. J. Baker & Bro., by W. D. Farls; the National Lead Company, R. P. Rowe, manager; Charles A. Schleren, of Charles A. Scl eren & Co., and Frank S. Gardener, the secretary of the board. The call reads: In view of the active discussion of the expediency and practicability of the broader application of the principle of commercial reciprocity as a means of ex panding foreign markets for American products, without sacrificing the interests of any of our industries, the under signed, with the approval af the execu tive of the board, invite and request all members of the Board of Trade and Transportation who are engaged in man ufactures to designate a principal or executive officer in each such firm or corporation, to meet in the board rooms on Thursday, November 7, at 2:30 P. M., for a liboral comparison of views on the subject, to formulate some expression of the sentiment of the meeting and, if deemed desirable, to select and recom mend to the board 10 delegates to the National Reciprocity Convention, which will be held In Washington on November 19. "The undersigned are aware that differ ing views of the value of commercial reciprocity are held among manufactur ers and have not ourselves compared opinions. The meeting, therefore, is called absolutely without prejudice or bias, and those attending will shape con clusions." Negrro Fired Into a. Crowd. ROANOKE, Va,,Nov. 3. At Ferrum, Va., William Hale, a negro, taking ex ceptions to remarks made by a white man at a, .political meeting, fired twice Into the crowd, killing a white roan named Robl nette, a negro named John Thomas, and fatally wounding two other whites. Hale escaped and is being hotly pursued PORTLAND SITUATION IN OHIO Republicans Claim Better Shape Than for Years'. , NO OFF-YEAR CONDITIONS EXIST Manager on Both Sides Reluctant About' Giving Out Estimates Close of the Campaign in. Other States. CINCINNATI. Nov. 3. Following their closing rally here last' night, andthe re ceptions tc Colonel James G. Kllbourne, Democratic candidate for Governor, and the Democratic leaders today, the Demo crats are claiming that they will elect part of their ticket in Hamilton County. It is hardly possible that this will affect the local legislative candidates, but it will materially affect the state ticket if the Democrats should secure part of the qoun ty offices here. The Republicans lost both Cuyahoga and Lucas Counties two years ago, when Governor Nash had a plurality of 49,000. Although the result at Cleveland and Toledo Is likely to be very close, yet the conditions are not considered so de moralizing as they were two years ago. The Republicans concede that the result Is doubtful in Franklin County, in which the state capital is located. The Demo crats are confidently claiming that coun ty, in wnich both Governor Nash and Colonel Kllbourne reside. There is some opposition to Governor Nash on account of his appointments, and It is asserted that the popularity of Colonel Kllbourne, especially among the worklngtnen, will add strength to the Democratic ticket in that county. The Republicans can lose both Cuyahoga and Franklin Counties, and still have a majority in the Legis lature for Senator If they carry Hamilton and Lucas Counties, as seems most prob able. The election this year Is for a full state ticket and county tickets, as well as for members of the Legislature. During the last half of the century, the Democrats have elected only four Gov ernors, and, with a single exception, they were elected In years following Presiden tial elections. The Republicans have had uninterrupted control of the state ever since the first election of McKlnley as Governor, In 1891, and in that time they have controlled more of the county and city offices than at any previous period. They deny that any so-called "off-year" conditions exist, and claim to be in set ter condition for success than for years. tTba"manag'ers on both sides are xnoro ruiucianttaoout giving out estimates than usual. This is due to the uncertainty as to the shortage In the vote on "both Bides, and the Republicans say that prevents them predicting as closely as usual the extent of their plurality. , The question of local option has been prominently agitated in this campaign, but with the brewers and liquor organiza tions on one side and, the Ohio Anti-Saloon League on the other side, this Issue Is considered a stand-off bgtween the two leading parties. The only large city In which this Issue has figured Is Columbus. It is directed solely at members of the Legislature, and some of the Leaguers have been opposing Senator Foraker's re-election by fighting candidates that would support him. Chairman Dick's Appeal. COLUMBUS, O., Nov. 3.-Chairman Dick tonight Issued an appeal to Republicans to "get out the vote," saying: "If this be done, from Information re ceived at these headquarters, we predict the election of Governor Nash and the entire state ticket by a plurality exceed ing that of two yars ago, and to the Gen eral Assembly the election of 22, and pos sibly 25, of the 33 Senators, and 70 certain with the probability of SO, of the 110 mem bers of the House of Representatives, thus Insuring the return of Joseph B. Foraker to the United States Senate." PREACHERS SPOKE FOR LOW. Active Part In the Campaign Taken by New York Clergymen. NEW YORK, Nov. 3. The feature of the local campaign today was the active part taken In it by the pastors of the churches. Thirty-one pastors, clergymen and two leaders of independent church societies advertised themselves to speak on the Issues of the election, and all these clergymen took for their subjects the al leged maladministration of the present city officers. Rabbi Schutman, the one Jewish priest whose sermon was reported, urged on his hearers the support of the fusion ticket because of the revelations, concerning vice In the tenement districts. All Protestant pastors, except two, talked for the fusion ticket, asserting that vice and unsanitary conditions existed here and a change was needed. The exceptions were Dr. Davis G. W-ylle, of the Scotch Presbyterian Church, and the Rev. Dr. Vandewater, of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church, who advised their congregations to examine the two tickets closely and vote for thejiest men on them. Henry Frank, of the Metropolitan Independent Church, advised his hearers to vote "against bosses, whether they came from this city or Tioga County." The Rev. Father J. Ducey, of St. Leo's Roman Catholic Church, was alone in those re ported who spoke on the election for the Shepard side. One of the features of the fusion cam paign has been the work of the Women's Campaign Committee. A report issued to day says this committee had distributed several hundred thousand - copies in En glish and German of a pamphlet pur porting to be an expose of vice In the city. The Democrats also had a women's campaign committee actively at work dur ing the canvass, but no report of its la bors has yet appeared. , While the fusion campaign practically closed last night, a few more meetings have been scheduled for Monday and Mon day night. Senator Depew Is down for a speech aC"a meeting to last from noon until 5 P. M. The Democratic campaign was carried on with vigor tonight, the party leaders having engaged five theaters, and from the stages of these the orators cheered their supporters with words of coming victory. The Democrats Intend to carry the work up to the last moment and to day have not changed their forecast, which is that Mr. Shepard will receive a majority in the greater city of about 50,000. Robert C. Morris, of the Republican county committee, today repeated his as sertion of Saturday that Mr. Low's ma jority would be 70,000 In Greater New York. Superintendent pf Elections McCullagh today addressed a letter to. Police Com missioner Murphy informing him that it had been ascertained that a large gang of repeaters had been organized In Jersey City to come over to New York to vote in the Ninth Assembly district In this city. His Information also was that an other gang had been formed in that dis trict to Invade Jersey City, and .asked Colonel Murphy's assistance in prevent ing the repeaters from voting. t Chief Murphy, of Jersey City, was also Informed of the alleged attempt to be made to vote illegally. THE FIGHT IX PENNSYLVANIA. Fusion Leaders Slake Strong Predic tions of Success. PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 3. The cam paign Just closed in Pennsylvania has at tracted more than the ordinary off-year Interest in consequence, of the fusion of Democrats and Independent Republicans on candidates for the only two state offices to be filled State Treasurer-and Justice of the Supreme Court. The Independent Republicans, organized under the name of the Union party, Joined with the Dem ocrats in the nomination oj! E. A. Cor rey,v Jr., (Republican) for State Treasurer, and Herman Yerkes (Democrat) for Su preme Court Justice, against the regu lar Republican nominees. Frank Harris, for State Treasurer, and William P. Bot ter, for Supreme Judge. The Fusion leaders are making strong predictions that their candidates will carry the state, while, on the other hand, the regular Re publican leaders express confidence in bringing their candidates safely through, though conceding that the majority may be lowered Vrom that of two years ago, when Barnett (Republican) was elected Treasurer by 110,000 majority. The campaign in Philadelphia has been unusually active, the interest centering In the fight for District Attorney. The reg ular Republicans, backed by the city and state administration forces and United States Senators Penrose and Quay, placed in nomination John Weaver for District Attorney, while the Union party and Municipal League named the present In cumbent, B. H. Rothermel. a Republican. A faction of the Democratic party, how ever, refused to Join the reformers and placed in regular nomination William Wilklns Carrel, a Democrat and Post master of the city during the Cleveland Administration. It Is generally admitted, however, that the real battle at the polls Tuesday will be between the respective" adherents of Weaver and Rothermel. Many prominent Democrats, among them ex-Governor Robert E. Pattison, have been active participants in the campaign in the interest of Rothermel. The latter was elected in 1S9S by a majority of 73,500, but at that time had the support of the regular Republican forces now opposing his re-election. THE PROSPERITY ISSUE. Both Sides In New Jersey Arc Claim ing Victory. NEW YORK, Nov. 3. The Gubernator ial campaign In New Jersey was brought to a close last night with the leaders of both parties claiming victory for their respective candidate. It was one of the most stubborn ever fought in the state, the Republicans leaving no stone un turned to holdthe state machinery, which they have, controlled tar Tipnrlv a rtofnrtn rwhii0 Qie. Democrats are struggling to iu.&e ji irom mem. tuv.a sides are to night claiming victory. v The Republicans base their hopes on two thing first, the large majority which must be wiped out by the opposition, and, sec ond, the fact that they think the voters of the state, pleased with the prosperous condition of affairs in the Nation, will return a Republican Governor as an evi dence of their indorsement of the Na tion Administration and as an assurance to the present head of the Administration that they have confidence In him. It was practically on the latter Issue that the party made its fight The Democrats claim victory on the per sonal popularity of their candidate for Governor, James M. Seymour. He Is very popular with the working classes, and his strength is acknpwledged by his oppon ents. He has thrice been elected Mayor of Newark by large majorities. Both state committees have complied tables made up from reports from various counties of the state. The Republicans, by their figures, show that Franklin Mur phy, their candidate for Governor, who is also chairman of the committee, will be elected by about 10,000 majority. The tables compiled by William B. Gourley, chairman pf the Democratic State Com mittee, show that Mayor Seymour will have about 8000 majority. THE VOTE IN IOWA. Republicans Figure on a Plurnlity of 75,000. DBS MOINES, la., Nov. 3. There have been no new developments today in the election outlook beyond the severe change In the weather, which, if continued, is likely to affect the turnout to the polls. Chairman Spence, of tho Republican State Committee, estimates a total vote of about 440,000, of which he thinks the Republicans will get 250,000, the Democrats 175,000, the Prohibitionists 14,000, and the remainder scattering. This would give 75,000 plurality for the Republican ticket, and any change from these figures would be caused by the size of the total vote the larger the total, the larger the Re publican plurality. Frank Q. Stuart, secretary of the Demo cratic State Committee, thinks the Repub lican estimates are too large, but refuses to give any figures of his own. He says locally the Democrats have put up in the various counties their strongest men, and thinks this fact should bring out nearly the full Democratic vote. J. H. Campbell, chairman of the Pro hibition State Committee, says he Is sat isfied with the prospects for a large vote for the Prohibition ticket, the largest, In fact, ever cast for that ticket In this state. He estimates the minimum vote of his party at 25.000. Light Vote Expected In Nebraska. LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 3. Yesterday's storm played havoc with the registration In this city, which shows a falling off of over 2000, compared with a year ago. The same report comes from other large towns in the state. This Is not encouraging to the Republicans, but as the same apathy is shown In the country, they assert they see no cause for alarm. The only rally of Importance tomorrow will be at South Omaha, where W. J, Bryan will make a number of speeches at night. At the two state headquarters the respective chairmen said tonight they saw no reason to change their estimates previously made. Both committees predict a light vote. Both Sides in Kentucky Claim It. LOUISVILLE; Ky., Nov. 3. As the four Democratic candidates for United States Senator in Kentucky ex-Gover"nor Mc Creery, Congressman Wheeler, Congress man Smith and Judge Cantrlll decided not to make a canvass from the stump, and as Senator Deboe was- the only an nounced Republican candidate the cam paign in this state preliminary to the election of Tuesday, when half a State Senate and a new Lower House will be chosen, has been without special feature. In Louisville the Democratic and Repub lican executive commmlttees have worked hard for their municipal tickets, as tho Mayoralty, now held by a Democrat, is at stake. Tonight each side claims the elec- tion by from 6000 to 7000. SENT A SHARP NOTE France Demands Satisfac tion From Turkey.

HELEN MILLER GOULD, PROMINENT IN PHILANTHROPIC WORK. Helen Miller Gould, who has been appointed one of the Women Commission ers of tho Louisiana Purchase Exposition, is tho foremost woman In the United States In philanthropic work. With an Income of ?1,000,000 a year, she expends but a small part upon herself. The rest she regards as a trust for the less fortu nate. She was born in 1868, a daughter to the late Jay Gould, tho celebrated financier. She took the law course of New York University in the women's class. At tho outbreak of tha Spanish-American War she gave $100,000 to tho United States Government, to be used to relieve the sufferings of the sick and wounded. Shortly afterward she gave $25,000 to the Woman's National Relief Association. When Camp Wikoff was established and soldiers were landed there by the thousands, Including eick and wounded, Helen Gould was one of the flret visitors. She made the care of the sick and convalescent soldiers her personal duty, and gave $50,000 for needed supplies. Her residence at 570 Fifth avenue, and her country home near Tarrytown were turned into hoopltals for sick and wounded soldiers. She is the founder of tho Sailors' Club, near tho Brooklyn Navy-Yard, to which she has given more than $400,000. She made her home tho temporary hospital after the Windsor Hotel flre, and was among the first to give money for the relief of Galveston. As an active partisan of education, she has contributed handsomely to Columbia University, has endowed many educational establishments, besides privately aiding many young people in their studies. For the erection of the Hall of Fame, on the campus of New York University, she guaranteed $100,000. In her charity she is practical, and la compelled to turn aside begging letters which would require the expenditure of $1,500,000 a week. Associated Press Is authoritatively in formed, to present today to Tewflk Pasha, Ottoman Minister of Foreign Affairs,' a note asking how the Turkish Government proposes to pay the Lorando claim, and demanding the execution of the Sultan's trade dealing with that matter. The note will also require satisfaction regarding the rights of France, which are defined in th various rinltiilntlnna anA trpntlps nnrl which in some cases have not been re- J spected and in others have been en croached upon by Turkey. This declara-' tlon of what has been done bears out the statement cabled yesterday to the Associated Press about the Intentions of the French Government. Admiral Gaillard is expected to reach his destination tomorrow. The Foreign Office has received no news from him since his division left the other divisions of the Mediterranean squadron en route . for Turkjsh waters, four days ago. It is pointed out that the absence of news Is not surprising, as the instructions to Ad- I mlral Gaillard were to steer due south and to avoid passing In sight of Bonifacio, Corsica, or traversing the Straits of Mes- I sina, in order to prevent his movements being signaled. The vessels of the dl- , vision carried only a normal supply of coal, but this would be much more than enough to enable them to steam 1500 miles, the estimated distance they must cover ' before reaching their destination. It Is expected that Admiral Gaillard will be Joined en route by 'the torpedo cruiser Condor, which Is stationed in Cretan waters, and may be met by the torpedo dispatch-boat Vantour. which Is stationed at Constantinople. It Is also probable that the armed cruiser Admiral Charner, which arrived at Port Said Oc tober 31 from the far East, is being held there, In order to Join Admiral Gaillard, J If needed. It Is also said that three other warships are held In readiness In Toulon to reinforce him, should their presence be necessary. 1 Dispatches from Rome assert that the I second division of the Italian Mediter ranean squadron, which, as announced yesterday. left for Turkish waters with the supposed object of counterbalancing the French naval demonstration, will Join the first division, which has been cruising in the Eastern Mediterranean for some time. It. appears that the Greek warships Psara, Hydra, Spetsal and Eurotas are now at Smyrna, where Is also the Rus sian Mediterranean squadron. It Is be-1 lleved that the British squadron, now at Piraeus, Greece, will be ordered to pro ceed to Beyrout, Syria. Activity at Toulon. PARIS, Nov. 4. According to dis patches from Toulon, the officers and men of the garrison now on leave of absence I have been ordered to rejoin their respect- Ive commands Immediately. Three trans ports are preparing to receive troops. Tne cruisers Du Chuyla and Cassard are ready to sail at a moment's notice and the battle-ships Bouvet and Jauregulberry will be ready Tuesday. The work of repairing the docks was continued throughout yesterday. Trouble in a Turkish Island. PARIS, Nov. 3. "Serious troublfe has arisen In Samos (an Island off the west coast of Asia Minor) owing to the enmity felt by a majority of the Insular Assem bly toward- the government," says the Constantinople correspondent of the Temps. "The government, with the as sistance of four representatives, is exer cising absolute power, and the assembly has appealed to Constantinople to end a state of things menacing to the tranquil lity of the Island." THE IRISH CAUSE. Redmond Explains His Mission to the United States. NEW YORK, 'Nov. 3. Irish-Americans to the number of 3000 or 4000 from this city and vicinity gathered tonight at a reception given at Cargenle Hall In honor of John E. Redmond, M. P., leader of the Irish Nationalist party in the British Parliament. The reception was given under the auspices of the amalgamated Irish societies In New York, the Irish National Club and tho Irish League. The boxes of the upper and lower tier wore occupied by the delegates of the various Irish Societies in this eitV. TY. DndmnnH was accompanied by Patrick McHugh and Thomas O'Donneli, his fellow-delegate3 from the National League. William Mc Adoo, ex-assistant Secretary of the Navy. was chairman of the evening and intro duced Mr. Redmond, who said In part: "When I last spoke here, Ireland was torn by dissensions. She was divided, distracted and weak. The great loader who had banded the Irish race together all over the world and had brought the causo of Ireland to the very threshold of victory had disappeared, the great movement which his genius had created had been wrecked, the hopes of the Irish race had been dashed to the ground and the enemies of Ireland were exultant and triumphant. Tonight, thank God, the situation is changed. It is truo, unfortunately, that the -grave cannot give up its dead; it is true that there is no great political genius today presiding over the councils of the Irish Nation, but the Irish people themselves havo come together again. "My object in coming here is. In the first place, to proclaim tho unity of the Irish people at home; secondly, to ex plain the policy which these people at home have unanimously adopted, and, finally, to say to the Irish race In Amer ica that If they approve of that policy, they ought to support It, but that whether they support It or not whether the Irish people at home are left In this crisis of their country's history to carry on this struggle against England without the aid of their brethren throughout tho world or not, we at home are disciplined enough and strong enough and earnest enough to carry on this movement our selves, and at any cost we shall do so." Mr. Redmond said that the policy of the United Irish League movement was to advance the national cause of Irish men by making the government of Ire land by England In every department, both In Parliament and out of Parlia ment, difficult and dangerous, and, final ly, impossible. He said it was proposed to accomplish this by means of the United Irish League organization, the lineal successor of the Land League. Mr. McHugh and Mr. O'Donneli fol lowed Mr. Redmond In speaking, and resolutions were adopted Indorsing the policy of the league and pledging the sup port of the meeting to its policy.

IN THE AIR NEARLY TWO HOURS Once They Were Carried Out to Sea, but Were Blown Back Over the Land Finally Rescued by a Farmer. --" SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 3. The nino occupants of the car. of the balloon which escaped from this city yesterday afternoon returned safely today. Tho balloon landed near Pescadero, 50 miles from this city and but a short dlstanco from the ocean. The balloon was in the air nearly two hours, and at ono time was out at sea, but was blown back over the land. Those who mado the Involuntary trip were: Ed P. Dudley, the aeronaut; A. L. Dodge. Ed Foster, Jr., Walter Leon, C. P. VHdecoq, J. A. Leonard, M. L. Howarth, John A. M. Swift and Mre. J. P. Gunsaulus. When the balloon broke its bonds i sailed away in a southerly direction. South of Redwood City it struck an other air current which took It to wards the ocean over the summit ofi the Const Range. Nine miles from La honda and about six miles from Pesca dero lies Beatty Thompson's place. Thompson was up and out when tho balloon came along by Wurr's mill, tha grappling hooks slipping through tho trees and raking along brushy patches of ground. By this time much of tho gas had been let out of the ballon and the power was weak. The rope that had snapped and caused the captive to run away was sweeping along the ground, and when It came within Thompson's reach he grasped It and boro down with all his weight. This stopped the flight Soon the balloon was brought to tho ground, and the overjoyed passengers and the aeronaut alighted and took sup per with Thompson. A. L. Dodge, one of the passengers, describing the trip, said that the balloon first started toward Oakland, and after circling about for a time drifted south ward and became stationary for a short period. Then, in response to a breezo from the eastward. It sailed over the San Mateo hills and stood far out over the ocean. The hearts of all the occu pants of the wicker cage wore filled with fear as the prospect of being dumped into the ocean stared them In th facm Twlre," according to Dodge's story, thp balloon dipped close to the surface of I the water, but rose again each time to a considerable altitude. Finally, a breeze from the sea caught the balloon and carried It back over the land and, after dragging tho cage through the tops of a grove of trees, landed on & side "hill six miles from Pescadero. "It was a terrible experience." said Dodge, "and I wouldn't undergo the same adventure again for any consideration Everybody was more or less shaky, whllr the lady passenger and two or three o' the men were so frightened and sick that they sat In the bottom of the bas ket throughout the trip. We were all pretty glad when we finally landed with out sustaining any injuries except from fright." MORE MEDALS FOR OREGON Secured Many Prixes In Horticultural Division nt Buffalo. BUFFALO, N. Y..
