THE MORNING OBEGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1,90$. 11 NEARLY ROUT RALLY Republicans Capture Parker Meetingat Newark. ROOSEVELT'S NAME CHEERED Candidate Is Not Present at the Time He Pays Particular Attention to Trusts and Expansion In His Address. 7 NEWARK, N. J., Nov. L Eventually Ineffective, but temporarily successful, was the attempt made tonight to rout a monster Democratic meeting at the Essex Troop Armory, where Judge bar ker was the principal speaker. The great building, with a. .capacity said to be more than two-thirds that of Madison Square Garden In New York, was filled. At the first mention of the present Administra tion and the name of President Roose velt, hundreds broke forth with terrific cheering, and for several mlniites it ap peared as though the Democrats were in the minority. The scene that followed was one of unimaginable confusion. Hisses and cheers were -mingled. "Words in anger and threats were heard, and the police were powerless to control. Finally the Democrats, by sheer force of num bers and their great volume of sound, drowned but their adversaries. The dis turbance occurred before Judge Parker reached the halL Judge Parker's invasion of New Jersey to make In the present campaign the first speech he has delivered outside of his na tive state, was met with a resounding welcome. This started when the candi date boarded a ferry of the Lackawanna Railroad at Christopher street. New York, and was continued at the Hoboken Station, on a crowded train to Newark, and en route to the .home of ex-Senator James Smith, Jr., where the members of his party were guests at dinner. At the Broad-slreet station in Newark several thousand people gathered, and despite ex tensive police protection, passage up Broad street was forced with great dif ficulty. Large Crowd at Smith Home. Led by a squad of police and a military band, the party, in two carriages, was driven to Mr. Smith's home. A large crowd was gathered there, and lines were lestablished by the police to enable the party to reach the house. As Judge Parker mounted the steps there was a tremendous cheer. He several times lifted his hat and shook hands with women who mshed up the steps. After dinner a reception was held at Mr. Smith's home, where many people met the can didate. Judge Parker and Mr. Smith started for the Armory at 8:30. The street and park In front of Mr. Smith's house was crowded with people who cheered the candidate as the party drove away. The procession of Ihe'Park'er party, including the escorts of marching clubs, bands, comlttees of citi zens in carriages, and those in charge of the arrangement for the candidate's re ception, enjoyed an unimpeded passage to the Armory, but there they found the capacity of the building overtaxed. After several attempts to gain an entrance by the main door, a gateway was found be neath the stage. Upon the appearance of Judge Parker on the platform at 9:03 o'clock, the demonstration was- phenom enal. The applause came from every part of the armory, and the volume of sound was deafening. After" exactly 12 -minutes. Judge Parker took a hand in quelling the enthusiasm. One minute later he addressed the chair man. In an Instant, the armory was converted from tumult to absolute si lence. Throughout his speech the candi date was W6ll treated, being cheered heartily when he scored a point and at tentively listened to at all times. There were no more demonstrations from his political opponents that were worthy tf notice. Judge Parker's voice was rather stronger than usual. It penetrated the furthermost sections of the armor'. Takes Up Expansion. Judge ParEer described the method by which the United States was peopled, be ginning with a narrow fringe of popula tion along the Atlantic Coast and spread ing steadily across the continent, speak ing the same languages and possessing the same Ideals. He then went on to say; It is this . expansion, natural. Inevitable, almost as silent as the tides of the ocean which has made the country what It is. 'and in the society that has come out of this varied effort the words 'empire' and 'sub ject' have become meaningless and obsolete. Turning: for a moment from this picture to lhat which, sets before'us the process of ex pansion, eVen In the great countries of Eu .rope and we find an entirely different ideal. There It has been accompanied by the cruelty -of the conqueror, the ambition of the soldier and the rapacity -of the tax collector. It has gone on not over virgin lands, but anions crowded populations. It has put mil lions of people under the elbow of the con queror nd has inculcated among those at home the idea that these great masses have been brought into the world to serve a dis tant master whom they would never see or to provide business -or pleasure or profit for c conquering race. It has promoted the growth of navies, useless and unnecessary for their purpose of protecting: commerce, and armies which quarter on the conquered lands have been paid by revenues drawn from scanty or decaying Industries. Even In these days of arbitration and peace con ferences, the rage for conquest, national ri valries and the fear that one might obtain an advantage over another have made con scription almost universal over the whole continent of Europe. They have divided un known continents into protectorates or spheres of Influence which, thus far, have been almost useless to the holders and harm ful to the natives. It is that kind of expansion upon which -we are invited to look with favor. We are asked to turn from our own mighty, but peaceful, triumphs; from the spectacle of a continent settled by a'hombgeBons people -attached to liberty, fitted to govern them selves. In order that wa may enter upon the beginning of a policy which must Inevitably end in the adoption of the other methods which I have so briefly and-so Imperfectly outlined. When we are asked then to turn away from the assured triumphs which a popular sys tem, familiar as household words, has brought to us, and to adopt methods which, opposed to all our traditions, have not even the merit of success, or of bringing self government, happiness and contentment to a single people thus far subjected to them, we may well enter our protest against such a policy. We, feel and know that that chart of our liberty by which our people have guarded the course for more than a. cen tury and a quarter has not been lost. If, under a Government of constitutional re straints and regard for law, we have been able, through peace and war, foreign and intestine, to grow from a population of 3,000,000 to one of 80,000.000, why xnay we not go on until we have doubled, that num ber! Why should we now consent 'to take even the first step, which, according to Its advocates, is certain to lead us to what they call "empire"? The Trust Question. Taking up the trust question, Judge Parker said: "It Is conceded that during the last three or four years the increase in the cost of living has amounted to one-jslxth. Secretary Shaw rejoices in it, and he says the. wages of the worktngmen and the in- corae of our people are greater in propor tion. Now, if that is true, the house holders of this country know it. If not, IfceJx wires do. Thr know wXtbc ta Income of the breadwinner is greater by onewslxth than It was four years ago. There are Instances in which it is. But in the great majority of cases you will find it is not true. You will discover that it requires Just a little more work on your part, and more care on the part of your wives, to make both ends meet from month to month. ""Now, why is it that ,the -prices of the things we have to have arc pushed up a little from time to time, whether there be improvement in our Incomes or not? Is It not in part because the business of this country today is largely In control of combinations or trusts which are enabled to shut out competition and thus control prices arbitrarily? "When an individual violates the law. the law punishes him. When a corpora-( "uu viuuues uie jaw, ine law snouiu punish It. A corporation is no more en titled to Immunity from the consequences of its wrongful acts than the indlvIduaL A combination of individuals to control the market price of products of any kind Is void. A combination of corporations for a similar purpose is alike void. We would not hesitate for a moment to prosecute the individuals thus violating the law for the purpose of oppressing the people. "Why should there be any hesita tion in enforcing the law against great corporations for illegal business? Are the artificial creations of the Government exempt in practice from the operation of that sacred principle of equal and exact Justice to all men? It ought not to be so. And it will not long be so. If we, as a people, act wisely in both state and na tional contests. "Overwhelming in importance tower the questions: "Shall the partnerships betwen the Re publican leaders and the trusts continue with profit to both and hurt the country? "Shall the tni6t contributions of mil lions to the campaign fund secure the right to continue wrongful taking of mil lions a year from the people?" Another ovation was given the candi date when he concluded. It continued several minutes, in fact, until Judge Parker left the meeting to take a special trolley car to Jersey City, where he also made speeches before returning to New York tonight. It is estimated by Demo" cratlc leaders that as many people were unable to get in the Armory us the num ber in the audience. PARKER AT JERSEY CITY. He Again Declares the Trusts Are Trying to Control the Election. JERSEY CITY, Nov. 1. An audience that filled Elks' Hall to overflowing re mained until 10:50 to greet and listen to Judge Parker tonight. When he appeared they gave him a vociferous greeting last ing seven minutes. As soon as he entered the hall he at once went to the front of V o fltara cVirtrtV Viave tfeA rliolrmnn 'of the meeting, and then faced the audi ence, which had mounted the chairs, cheering wildly and waving flags. He took his manuscript from his pocket and stood ready to begin, but as soon as the cheer ing died away it would be renewed again. Judge Parker was intensely earnest and even dramatic at times in his delivery and manner. He was frequently Inter rupted by applause and received .another ovation when he concluded, He said in part: Because we are opposed to the purchase of the electorate and have felt it our duty to say eo, those who would corrupt it to the end that their power to plunder the peo ple may continue, cry out ln these closing hours of the campaign that the business interests would not be safe with a Demo cratic Administration. As I have had occa sion to say before, and I deem it my duty to say again, trusts are furnishing the money with which they hope to control the elec tion. I am sorry to be obliged to say it. If It were not true, I would not say it to gain the Presidency or any other earthly reward, but It is true, and, that being so, it be comes my duty to warn the people of it. On Friday last. In a public address. I called attention to the fact that the charge had not been met and could not be. Promptly it .was given out' that Mr. Cortelyou would .make, answer to the charge Cortelyou, the chairman of the Republican National Com mittee, the one-time private secretary to the President, later a member of the Cabinet as head of the Department of Commerce and Labor, and as such having the right to ob tain the secrets of the so-called trusts secret service, which, under the statute, may not go beyond the President, if he so de sires. And then it was almost as promptly denied that he had any such purpose. The New York Tribune of this morning publishes a dispatch from Washington un der the head of "Cortelyou Falsely Accused" with a sub-head saying that he "has not extorted campaign contributions from cor porations." It gives what purports to be the statement of a man who withholds his name. He Is described in the Tribune ar ticle as "a man who knows all that oc curred at Mr. Cortelyou's last call on the President." Whether it was one or the other is left in doubt. But In any event it is of no consequence which one It was, for these grave charges cannot be met anonymously. There are only two persons who can Interest the people on this subject. If they have anything to say the people would like to have It said promptly. Weeks have passed since the New York World, the New York Times and the Brook lyn Eagle made charges covering fully- this, the most vital question before the people charges that were reproduced in every part of the country the former propounding its questions, beginning with "How much has the beef trust contributed to Mr. Cortelyou?" There has been plenty of time to answer these questions, but they have not been answered and they will not be. It Is for the people now to say whether the trusts of this country shall be permitted to control Its National elections In order that thefr privilege to pay tribute may be con tinued." The candidate left the hall after con cluding and went to St. Peter's HalL where he received another ovation and- delivered the same speech. Judge Parker left Jersey City for New York at 11:50. WANTS CANDIDATE SHUT OUT Chandler Carries Gubernatorial Fight In Delaware Into Court. WILMINGTON, Del., Nov. L Dr. Joseph H. Chandler, candidate for Governor of Delaware on the regular Republican tick et, today filed with the Clerk of the Peace a protest against the name of Preston Lea, the compromise candidate for Gov ernor? being placed on the official ballot as the candidate for Governor on the Republican-ticket. Dr. Chandler was nomi nated by the regular Republicans. The Union or-Addlcks Republicans also nomi nated a candidate for Governor, but an agreement was reached several weeks ago by which the two factions agreed upon Lea as a compromise candidate. The -Union Republican candidate-withdrew, but Dr. Chandler refused to get off the ticket. In the protest Dr. Chandler states that he was nominated at the Republican con vention held in Dover as prescribed by law, and therefore he Is the only legal candidate for Governor on the Republican ticket "In case Mr. LeaJs elected," Dr. Chand ler said, "we will take the matter Into court and protest his election on the ground that the election was illegal as ho was not' the legal candidate." NEWOFFERTO BRITT Taggart's Destination a Mystery. INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. L Thomas Tag gart, chairman of the National Democrat ic Committee, left Indianapolis today, and there is some speculation as to his desti nation. At his hotel word was given out there he had gone to French Lick. Po litical friends of Mr. Taggart say he went to Chicago. Miners Werk -at Old Scale. SEATTLE, Nor, 1. The strike at the Renton coal mines, owned by the Seattle Electric Company, was settled this after noon. The miners voted to resume work under the old conditions. The strike was commenced last June. One hundred and twenty-five men were Involved In the strike, Gans Will Fight Him at 134 Pounds in Baltimore, CLUB WILL GIVE $15,000 Manager of. the Negro Declares He Can Make Weight Much More Easily In the East Than on the Coast. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. L Al Herford. manager of Joe Gans, the champion light weight pugilist, said today: "If Britt will fight Gans at Baltimore my club will hang up a $15,003 purse, and if Britt will meet Gans at 1S1 ringside, I will give him a side bet of $2500, and he can spilt the purse 60 and 40 if he chooses. I have always contended that Gans can make weight easier East than he can here, and I am still of this opin ion. I will take Graney for referee, or Britt can have somebody else." TEAM jS IN, GOOD SHAPE. Defeated 'Varsity Men Not Ashamed of Showing in South. UNIVERSITY OP OREGON, Eugene, Nov. L (Special.) Today the varsity football squad, accompanied"" by Coach Smith and Manager Graham, returned from California and, although the team was defeated by Berkeley and Stanford, the men are not discouraged and will work all the more consistently for the games as scheduled with Washington and O. A. C. No injuries were sustained that will ne cessitate any of the men being out of ine Immediate meets and regular scrimmage work between the 'varsity and- college elevens began today. Although the Eu gene men were unable to advance the ball, consistently, against either Berkeley or Stanford, yet the offensive play of the team shows great improvement and the defense Is much stronger. It may be said that the team played on the defense In each game and the fact that they held their heavy opponents to short line plunges Indicates that Smith's men are capable of offering a stubborn resistance. No game Is scheduled until Saturday, November 12, when the Seattle team comes to Eugene, and In the meantime some severe practicing will be done. It is also probable that some changes will be made in the team, due to the fact that the defensive work of Kenon and F. Tem pleton makes Smith anxious to play both these men in the back field all the time Instead of alternating at the guard and fullback positions. Should this change be made, Mclntyre will be made a fixture at guard, while Kenon and F. Templeton will be placed in the back field. Mclntyre is a heavy man and with coaching should make a strong guard when It Is considered that he has a record of 10 3-5 seconds in the 100-yard dash and 53 seconds In the quar ter. Such a change will increase the weight of the team and make strong com petition for the back field positions. Columbia to Play High School. Columbia University plays football with the High School this afternoon at Mult nomah Field. These two teams have not yet met this season and there Is, no prophesying the outcome.- Columbia was conceded to be much stronger than any school team, however, until it only scored once on Hill last Saturday.

Last year be assisted Manager Thompson in putting out the team that won the state championship and Is at present assistant football manager. It was decided at the same meeting that Pacific will not put out a baseball team next season. The student body refused to become financially, responsible for base ball expenses.

A feature of the game with Oregon last Saturday was the presence of an organized crowd of Stanford men from Oregon who rooted for their home team. They marched In, bearing- a large Oregon banner, and made quite a hit with Stanford supporters. The game throughout was a clean-cut, well-fought contest. During the entire game not an instance of'dirty ball was noticed and not a penalty was imposed. The Oregon men fought every inch of the way and completely won the hearts of the Stan ford men by their gritty, sportsmanlike game and their gentlemanly conduct dur ing their entire stay.

Imperial headquarters tonight published a series of reports covering the operations against Port Arthur which began October 26 and Is still continuing. Hundreds of Japanese guns began bat tering against the northerly and easterly forts on October 26, the infantry going forward with desperate rushes where tho artillery had prepared the way, while the pioneers and sappers were running mines against the Russian forts. The reports record a series of desper ate encounters at close range and tell a dramatic story. The reports, beginning with that covering tho. attack of October 26, are as follows: "From 8:30 o'clock in tho morning the forts on Sungshu and Rihlung mountains, tho eastern group of forts on Kcckwan mountain and n. fort lying to the north of the latter were bornnarued with our siege guns and naval ordnance, and 250 shells took effect. - "The naval guns directed against the SungshU and Rihlung mountain forts sent many effective shells. The parapet of Rihlung mountain fort was demolished and openings were made In the fort. Sev eral portions of the cover were destroyed. "Two of the most important covers of Sunshu mountain fort were destroyed by our shells. One 15-centimeter gun was dismounted and another was damaged. One gun on the northern fort of East Keekwan mountain was destroyed. "From 2 o'clock -In the afternoon other siego guns were directed against the trenches on all slopes of Sungshu mount ain and Rihlung mountain and against the trenches on tho south side of Pohslan mountain. All these trenches were heav ily damaged by our fire. "A portion of our right wing ctiarged against the trenches on Sungshu mount ain and a portion of our center wing charged against tho trenches on Rihlung mountain and on the southern part of Pohslan mountain, and took possession of them without heavy loss. "Simultaneously with the occupation of the places from which the Russians had been driven, the enemy posted in the forts in their vicinity, in conjunction with the forts on West Sitaiyangkou Manto mountain. Golden Hill, Haiyu mountain and Laollnchus, concentrated his xflre against the points where our assaults were progressing. "The sound of our cannonade, the fire from the guns of the enemy and the bursting of shells made an impressive and dramatic scene. "The enemy's shells were defective. "A large mine exploded on the slope of Rihlung Mountain, but nbne of our men was killed thereby. On the same nlght,wlth the object of preventing tho Russians from making repairs our siege and naval guns shelled tho forts on Rihlung Mountain, East Keekwan Mountain and Sungshu Mountain. "The enemy's warships and machin ery buildings were also shelled. "The enemy, holding-. Sungshu and Rihlung Mountains,, under tho protec tion of a shell flrf, undertook several attacks, hut several of- them were re pulsed. "On October 27 the bombardment with, our siego guns was continued, and" the flro of our naval guns was di rected against Sungshu, Its, Anshu, Palyu and Rihlung Mountains, and also against the dockyard and the warships. "Of the effects of our bombardment, those deserving special mention are the effect realized against a fort on East Keekwan Mountain, where a gun and Its carriage were coriTpletely destroyed; the destruction of a banquette lying; be tween the east end of the north front and the center of the Rihlung Mountain fort, scattering the cover thereof and destroying two small guns, and the demolition of a gun on the east front of the same fort. "3everal of our shells took effect on the southeastern corner of tho same fort, de stroying its cover and smashing, two ma chine guns into pfeces- One gun placed on a projected point of the Sungshu Mountain fort was dislocated, and one 12-centimeter gun, which was placed in the center of the left wing, was demol ished, while the covers were also de stroyed. "During the same night our engineer corps was sent against the northern part of East Keekwan Mountain, and suc ceeded in destroying the outer casement of a projected point. During the night the enemy resorted, to every means to obstruct our work, assaulting and using bombs. At the same time the Russians worked energetically in effecting repairs on some -portions of their forts damaged by our shells. neavy ana otner siege guns was contin ued, and its effect was good. "Two hundred and eighty-five effective shells have been counted, and. besides these, several other, shells took effect on tho forts of Anshu Mountain.

"On Sungshu Mountain a 12-centimeter canet and another gun were hit. On Itz Mountain a 12-centlmeter canet and car riage were overturned and another gun was heavily damaged. On the 203-meter hill two covers and the wire entangle ments of the trenches were considerably damaged. On the fort north of Sltalyan kou the guns and works were heavily damaged. "A conflagration occurred In the old city, and a second conflagration watf- ob served in a factory at the northeast bass of Gooden Hill, which lasted for three hours. During the night a machinery building near the harbor was bombarded by our guns, which also protected the work of the engineers. "On October 29, the bombardment was continued with an Increased number of shells. On the same morning, at dawn, ICO of the enemy assaulted our line ex tending toward Rihlung, but they were repulsed with heavy loss. "Simultaneously a similar force of the enemy assaulted our mine projected against Sungshu Mountain. Our men bravely withstood the attack, ..but were forced to lose a portion of the mine, which, however, was regained with the assistance of our artillery at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. "A mine directed against . Rihlung Mountain fort reached, the outer limit of the fort last night. A portion of the outer limit of the fort was blown up. "Against the outer casemate of the eastern portion of the fort lying north of East Keekwan Mountain, dynamite was applied twice last night, causing wide openings and killing several men inside the casemate. "Our bombardment is proving increas ingly effective. A number of shells from our heavy guns are taking effect. We counted 350 of these shells. Besides this heavy damage has been inflicted on the Laoluechuikao, Itz Mountain and Palyu Mountain forts, and those lying between them. "Our naval guns were directed against Sitaiyangkou, N Itz Mountain, Anshu Mountain, Kunchienchuntsoying, Palyu Mountain and Sungshu Mountain. They exploded a magazine on the Sitaiyangkou fort. "Five Russian ships, which were being used In clearing mines, -were also bom barded. Three of them were heavily dam aged, and the other two were set on fire. "Other siege guns of different caliber bombarded the trenches lying between the forts and the old Chinese walls." LODGE TAKES PASSES TO TASK Attacks on Cortelyou Declared to Be Base and Slanderous. NEWARK. N. J., Nov. L Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts," spoke here tonight in the Kruger Auditorium. Senator Lodge said the attacks made by the Democrats on Chairman Cortelyou, of the Republican National Committee, are base and slander ous. In answer to that portion of Judge Parker's speech at Madleon-Square Gar den last night referring to Mr. Cortelyou, Senator Lodge said: "The speech made last night by Judge Parker at Madison-Square Garden in the midst of red fire and "well-drilled ap plause from the Tammany, crowd, you, will find consists chiefly of saying in fair weather that the sky te blue, the grass Is greenr that it is good to be good and bad to be bad, and that virtue Is better than vice.
