Optimistic Speeches of Premier
and Ambassador ReidPre-.
cedents for Arbitration.
LONDON, Nov. 9. "A century ago
Pitt, standing where I now stand, proph
esied war. Today I prophesy peace."
This was the text on which Premier Bal
four based his speech concerning the Te-
Jations o Great Britain with foreign
countries at the Lord Mayor's banquet in
the Guild Hall tonight. Mr. Balfour and
Whltelaw Reld, the American Ambassa
dor, who repied to the toast of "Their
Excellencies, the Foreign Ministers." pro
posed by the Lord Mayor, vied with
each other in pleasant words for the i
credit of their respective countries as
leaders among the advocates of arbitra
tion. The whole tenor of the speeches
wag optimistic. The Premier's reference
to Russia was particularly happy. He
said:
Our friends in Russia are aboorblnc public
interest by the great movement they are mat
Ins In the- direction, as we believe, of self
government. The task of the Emperor and his
advisers Is Indeed ont a light one. and those
who for centuries have practiced parllamentry
jwernment know beet the difficulties which
confront them. There is not a citizen In
Great Britain who does not wish them every
success, and I express the earnest wish that
the government may not in the future be
stained by the unnecessary effusion of blood.
"Ve hope that the government will bring hap
piness to countless millions, unsullied by a
repetloln of the painful and terrible events
which made tho Initial progress so lamentable.
Host of Lords and Others.
The banquet was conducted with all the
quaint ceremonial peculiar to the occa
sion. The guests of Lord Mayor Morgan
included tho retiring Lord Mayor, Sir
John Pounds, and Premier Balfour as
guests of honor; Foreign Secretary Lans
downe, the archbishop of Canterbury,
Mr. Arnold-Forster, Secretary of War;
"William St. John Broderlck, Secretary for
India; Lord Cawnor, Baron Ashbourne,
Lord Chancellor of Ireland; Ambassador
Reld, the Japanese, Chinese, Greek, Bel
gian, Mexican and Siamese Ministers, and
about 1000 other prominent personages.
Prior to the banquet the guests were re
ceived by the Lord Mayor and the Lady
Mayoress In the great reception room of
the Guild Hall.
In proposing the toast of "The Imper
ial Forces," Sheriff Smallman pleasantry
referred to the reception in the United
States of the British squadron under
command of Prince Louis of Battenberg.
Mr. Balfour devoted a considerable por
tion of his speech to the question of the
unemployed, expressing sympathy and his
desire in every way possible to help, those
out of work, and appealing private
purses for assistance during the stress.
Xo Prospect of AVar.
Passing to the foreign policy of the
government, the Premier spoke first of
Russia and then said that His Majesty's
government had done cverying possible
for many years to ward off the dangers
of war and had done its best to develop
a scheme of arbitration. He alluded to
the difficulties attending the boundary
questions and paid' he hoped that these
all might be settled by arbitration.
"I am sanguine on this subject," said
the speaker. "I think in the future we
shall not see war, unless Indeed we can
conceive of a nation or a ruler arising
who will be unable to carry out a scheme
of national aggrandizement except
through trampling on The rights of his
neighbors. However, I see no prospect
of such a calamity in Europe. '
Mr. Reld, In opening, referred to Vis
count Hayashi as "tho new Ambassador."
and said ho should have been selected to
respond to the toast to the representa
tives of foreign nations because of his
well-known eloquence and also because
he was more capable of doing justice to
the subject.
Two Pioneers of Arbitration.
Referring to the Premier's expressions
concerning the probabilities of peace, Mr.
Reld said it was the easiness of dlplo
matlsts to make peace and not war, and
for his part he preferred the court of
arbitration to the arbitrament of the
sword. The Ambassador said he would
neither concede nor dispute Mr. Balfour's
claim that Great Britain had taken prece
dence In tho matter of arbitration, but he
would say Great Britain and the United
States had set an example and had set
tled .some of the most burning questions
through arbitration, and that today tho
two countries Were more cordial in their
relations than they had been at any time
in the last hundred years. Ho continued
If you hear of the possibility of differences
over fisheries or something else, do not be
lieve it. because such a report Still be the
result of absolute misinformation. There, is
no question today bcteween the United States
and Great Britain that Secretary Root and
Secretary Lansdowne cannot speedlls settle.
and while King Edward and President Roose
velt retain their places there is cure to be a
continuance of good relations.
Mr. Reld closed with a tribute to the
action of President Roosevelt in bring
ing about peace between Russia and
Japan, and said that King Edward was
known throughout the United States as
an earnest advocate of peace, whose tact
and moderation had endeared him to
every citizen of the republic
Other speakers were Mr. Arnold-Fors
ter. Lord Cawdor and Sir Robert Finlay,
the Attorney-General.
PAGEANT FOR PRINCELINGS
Edward's Heir Welcomed by Bril
liant Assemblage at Bombay.
BOMBAY, India, Nov. 9. The Prince
and Princess of Wales arrived here today
on board the British battleship Renown.
They were greeted with salutes from the
forts and warships, and were accorded
an enthusiastic reception by the immense
crowds lining the sea front. The city Is
filled with visitors from all parts of In
dia. The town and people alike arc be
decked in the gayest holiday attire.
The Viceroy, Lord Curzon. of Kedle
ston, went on board the Renown to
welcome the Prince and Princess of
Wales, while a notable gathering of
native chiefs, in glittering uniforms
t;nd surrounded by their staffs and es
oorts, garbed in all colors of the rain
bow, awaited the royal visitor at the
landing stage. The party landed to
the strains of the national anthem and
proceeded to a canopied platform,
where a civic address of welcome was
presented to the Prince.
CONTROVERSY ON MADEIRA
Britain and German Lock Horns on
Land Concession.
LISBON, Nov. 9. The development of
the Island of Madeira by Germans Is
causing a sharp diplomatic incident. A
German company .under Prince von Ho
henlohe, a nephew of the ex-Chancellor,
Is making extensive Improvements in the
leland and sought to secure land claimed
by the British Admiralty to coal war
ships. Portugal directly and Great Brit
ain Indirectly opposed the German ac
quisition of the land, thus bringing on a
controversy.
Herr Kemnltz, the German Charge
d'Affalres here, declares there has been
no ultimatum, but It is understood that
he intimated his Intention to depart un
less the German -position was upheld.
ASKED TO UNTIE RED TAPE
Austrian Railroad 3fcn Strike and
Government Issues Appeal.
VIENNA, Nov. 9. The passive resist
ance strike movement became effective at
the railroad station here today. Already
the traffic delays are serious. The gov
ernment is preparing for serious disor
ders. Troops are being got in readiness
for active service, and further reinforce
ments are being sent to Prague, where a
general strike is threatened, in support of
the demand for universal suffrage.
Among the advantages to the railroad
men of this novel system of striking is
that they will still draw pay and cannot
be removed, as theoretically their attitude
is correct.
The government today made an effort
to break the strike. The acting Minister
of Railways addressed an official notice
to the railway employes, pointing out that
the method the strikers had adopted to
secure their ends, though disguised by a
cloak of strict compliance- with the regu
lations, constitutes a serious offense. The
Ministry does not deny that the demand
is justified in view of the increased cost
of living, and says the government is
ready to do everything possible in this di
rection the state of Its revenues will per
mit, but a restoration of the orderly con
dition of affairs must be the unconditional
preliminary to such steps. The notice ex
horts the men to fulfill their service loyal
ly and thus abate the impediment of serv
ice. It also announces that the Ministry
has drawn up new switching regulations.
AFTER MAGNETIC POLE
NORWEGIAN EXPEDITION "WAS
WELL LAST 3IAY.
Governor of Hudson Bay Had Let
ter From Amundsen and Sent
Him Some Dogs.
ST. JOHNS. N. F., Nov. 9. The auxil
iary cruiser Neptune arrived today after
a perilous voyage into Hudson Bay which
the cruiser entered later in the season
than any other vessel is known to have
done. On board tho cruiser was Major
Moodie. Governor of Hudson Bay. He
made the trip to supply Winter stores to
the remote police posts In the Hudson
Bay country.
Major Moodie reports having had a com
munlcatlon from Captain Ronald Amund
sen's Norwegian expedition in search of
the North magnetic pole, as recently as
May 22. Tho sloop GJoads, with the ex
pedition on board, spent last Winter in
Simpson Strait, King Williams Land. 400
miles north of Fullerton, Governor
Moodlo's headquarters on the Northwest
side of Hudson Bay.
Captain Amundsen dispatched letters to
Fullerton late in November last, reporting
himself and his companions well, but
short of dogs. He requested that eight
dogs be sent him, as he had only four
left. The messenger was sent back on
March 26th with ten dogs. The messenger
reached Captain Amundsen's party May
22 and then returned to Fullerton with a
second letter from the head of the ex
pedition, reaching Governor Moodle's
headquarters June 25.
This letter reported that the magnetic
and other scientific observations of the
party had been, conducted undisturbed
since the establishment of the magnetic
station October 30. 1902. Half of the party
began an exploration of Victoria land In
April last, hoping to achieve tho north
west passage this Summer and come out
through Behrlng Strait next season. It
was decided if any mishap occurred ef
forts would be made to reach Fullerton.

Front Portland.
OMAHA, Nov. 9. Special.) The fast
overland train from Portland was the
tcene of a general fight this afternoon. In
which nearly all the passengers In the
day coach participated. Canes and um
brellas were freely used for a period of 30
minutes, and many bad cuts and gashas
resulted.
The trouble was started by Henry and
Bert Browning, colored ballplayers, who
boarded the train at Columbus. Whon
Conductor Tom Horan called for tickets,
they tendered a slip of paper and invited
the conductor to put them off. Then,
while one seized Horan by the neck, the
other struck him In the face.
Instantly the passengers rushed to the
rescue of the conductor and attacked the
negroes, who fought like demons to de
fend themselves. The train was stopped
at Schuyler and the negroes were over
powered and taken to the County JaiL
In the fight they were both badly beat
en about the head. Horan has a bruised

SQUARE DEAL0N RATES
Tovn.end Declares Railroads Have
Misrepresented His Bill.
GREENVILLE, Mich., Nov. 9. Con
gressman Charles E. Townsend, of Jack
son, Mich., one of the authors of the
Esch-Townsend railroad rate bill, deliv
ered 'a spirited address here tonight at
the annual banquet of the Greenville Re
publican Club, his subject being railroad
rate legislation.
Congressman Townsend charged that
the railroad men had misrepresented this
question to the people. He pointed out
existing evils and the necessity for cur
ing them, and answered some of the ar
guments that have been raised against
conferring the rate-making power upon
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Instead of the government proposing to
dictate to individuals or companies Just
how much profit they shall make In their
business, he said, it simply Intends to
have them do business on a fair basis.
The purpose of the proposed reforms, he
said, is to stop the practice of charging
one man more than another for the same
service.
Governor Fred E. Warner, of Michigan,
eulogized President Roosevelt, and pre
dicted that business conditions of the
country . will so develop that the people
will demand President Roosevelt's re
election at the end of his present term.

Causing His Defeat.
DEFAMED BY- HIS 'ENEMIES
Ohio Governor Accuses Democrats of
Uslnjr Baseless Charges to Break
Down Party Lines ' and
Achieve Victory. -
COLUMBUS, O.. Nov. 3. Governor Her
rick tonight gave a statement to the As
sociated Press In which he says:
The people of Ohio- by a substantial plural
ity have defeated roe- for Governor. I bow to
their will, and truirt that their welfare may
be the only aim of the new administration.
This overthrow of the Republican party In
Ohio was not caused by boeinesa depression
or Industrial adversity anywhere in the etate
or Nation; It was not caused by any misman
agement or corruption la the condition of the
state government; It was not caused by any
discontent on the part of the people with the
record or achievements of the Republican party
In the administration of state affairs during;
the last H years. It was shown conclusively
in the campaign that the business affairs of
the state had been welt managed: that all the
state's debts bad been paid; that there Is a
splendid surplus in the Treasury; that the
etate Institutions have been honcsUy, effec
tively and economically administered, and that
nowhere In any office or department of the
state government has- there been any breath of
scandal or of official mlKonduct.
In the legislative department of the gov
ernment the record of the Republican .party
has been equally clean. It has given the peo
ple wise and progressive laws; especially In
the matter of moral advancement and temper
ance reform, and In the way of a Juster and
more equitable system of taxation the party
has deserved public confidence and approval.
Seform Ware 111 Directed.
But despite all these things the people of
Ohio have been mrept away from the moor
ings of truth by a wave of prejudice and sus
picion. Undoubtedly there is a healthy spirit
of moral reform, and a widespread Insistence
upon courage and honesty in public officers,
being manifested all over the land. That spirit
has shown luwilf in the election of Jerome
In New York, the triumph of Weaver In Phila
delphia, and earlier, the breaking down of
party lines In Mantachusetts. Minnesota and
Mlesourl. This ract and these events make it
eay to excite thV utplc!on. Inflame the con
science and mislead the Impulse of the peo
ple of Ohio. The real Issues of the cam-"1
palgn were forgotten and the passion that was
appealed to throughout the state was to strike
down romeihlng, destroy something, avenge
some fancied wrong, avert sqsoe fancied
danger.
The greatest danger now confronting the
American people Is the readiness, in response
to some eudden whim or pretext, to desert
rarty principles and follow some Individual
who claims wmetlmes with sincerity, often
with hypocrisy, to represent a caune that is
higher than party fealty. This spirit, whleh
would decry party government and party re
sponsibility and establish individual leader
ship In It stead, may advance some personal
ambitions, but can accomplish no good to
society. It offers the moat fruitful field for
the demagogue and the Iconoclast, and, while
some good men may be Wept Into power
upon a popular wave that override principle,
the strain upon our Institutions and upon the
fundamental truths which lie at the bottom
of our Government will leave the structure
weaker rather than stronger.
The Individual who. In seeking self-advancement.
Is willing to allure the people from the
principle apd pollclt of government to the
adoration or a popular Idol Is an enemy of
his counfry. The newspaper which. In order
to swell receipts of the counting-room, fa will
ing to pander to sensationalism, to deceive the
people and play upon the credulity of the un
thinking. Is an enemy of mankind.
Here in Ohio. In this campaign and elsewhere
In other states, we had too many Instance
of that spirit which is ready to defame and
destroy in order to profit by the noise. The
Democratic party 1 the Immediate beneficiary
in this state. What 1 said repeatedly in the
campaign is borne out already by the attitude
of that party lnce the election. Its leaders
everywhere are proclaiming my defeat as a
Democratic victory. The attempt to rive it
National (significance is already apparent, fer
attention I being called to the fact that the
Brannock bill and pool, bill and the baseless
charge of "bosstem" were lost sight of In
the general impulse to strike down the Repub
lican party. The returns bear out this claim
and this purpose on the part of the Demo
cratic leaders. Ther chow that both extrtm
tetn on the. temperance question, the saloon
1st and the anU-fta!oonlt, whom I had dis
pleased bcaue I declined to be controlled by
eitner, voted against me at the polls. They
show that the advocates f racetrack ram-
Ming contributed very little to the result, and
thy show that In those communities, like
Cleveland and Cincinnati, where "bossism'
was the chief issue, the whole party went
flown to defeat.
Would Do Fame, Thing Again.
The one keen regret I feel over the result
arites from the disappointment felt by the
inousanas or Republicans of Ohio whose sup
pert of the ticket, and the whole ticket, was
the earnest of their steadfast loraltv to
party principles. They have ray .heartfelt
thanks and. deepest gratitude for their splen-
, aia aevouon. I have no other regms.
i aiscnarge my duties as Governor of Ohio
witn an eye and purpose devoted solelr to the
best Interest of all the people. My conscience
is clear. What I did with rtpect to the
HrannocK ww was done In the Intern! of ius
tlco andV morality and Intended to strengthen
that measure as & temperance law. I would do
the same thing over again. The unconstitution
al measures I vetoed I would veto again. The
extravagant appropriations that I declined to
approve I would decline to approve again. If
the people of Ohio defeated me becaue they
aisapprovea or my acuon with respect to those
measures, they acted wisely, for. If I had
been given a second term. I would have been
actuated by the eame motives and I would
have pursued the same course whenever the
occasion arose.
From these same people. In who ultimate
Judgment and sense of Justice I have the pre
Xoundest faith. I bespeak for my successor
that support ana confidence which should al
ways encourage the public servant and I trust
that for every exercise of an honesty of pur
pose to serve the general welfare he may
receive that approval to which on upright con
science is entitled.

EIERY ELOQUENCE WASTED
(Continued Krom Page 1.)
"cigui asau oi tno u. . ac ri.f was
put on the stand and asked regarding
tne rate on coal from the Wyoming
mines to Colfax. His figures showed
the rate from Wyoming- to Colfax to bo
" man une-nau a cent per ton per
mile. He explained the low rate as
partly due to the fact that the owners
of the Harriman lines were also own
etp or the coal mines. He gave as the
principal rcasorr the fact thar the pre
ponderance of freight was castbouml.
n.in ucicDsmiicu naming west a
great many empty cars. By making
this extremely low rate on coat. It en
ablcd the company to haul loaded in
stead of empty cars Into the Palouse
country and tho Idaho mines, whero
they could be loaded with return car
goes of lumber, ore and wheat.
Grievance From Seattle.
When the exhaustive examination of
Blakelcy and Coman had been completed
the coal rate was temporarily dropped and
the commission took up an alleged griev
ance of the Crescent Manufacturing Com
pany, of Seattle. The manager of the
company, F. H. Hawkins, was placed on
the stand and testified that tho Great
Northern had refused to accept freight
for O. R. & N. points, and that the North
ern Pacific insisted on routing it by way
of Portland instead of by the most direct
route. Hawkins had an exhaustive array
of figures to prove that at certain points
In O. R. & N. territory the rate by way
of Portland was higher than by way of
Spokane.
On cross-examination, Hawkins admit
ted that he had not suffered any loss by
the refusal of the Great Northern to han
dle his freight, but insisted that his goods
should bo forwarded by the most direct
route.
As It was proved that routing had not
always been done In that way, the rail
road officials expressed a willingness im
mediately to obey any order that the
commission might make requesting them
to ship freight by the most direct route.
They stated that they would Issue In
structions for such' routing in the future,
whether the commission so orders or not.
Under this new plan the through rate to
O. R. & N. points, regardless of the rout
ing, must never exceed the sum of the
two lowest locals.
The hearing was adjourned at 5 o'clock
and will be resumed at 9 o clock tomorrow
morning. At that time the complaint of
the Tacoma Jobbers over thelr inability
to get into O. R. &. N. territory will be
heard.
Protest From Tacoma.
TACOMA. Wash., Nov. 9. (Special.)
One of the Interesting points advanced
by Tacoma at the State Railway Com
mission rate hearing at Colfax In support
of this city's protest against Inequality
of the Joint freight rates as between
Portland and Tacoma is that made by W.
II. Reed, State Grain Commissioner. The
Chamber of Commerce has wired the mat
tor to Commissioner McMUlin.
Reed shows that October 27 wheat char
terers made for Portland 27s 6d and for
Tacoma 35s 3d. This is the equivalent of
three-fourths of a cent difference per
bushel In favor of Tacoma.
At all times under normal conditions
Tacoma has at least this much advantage
In grain charter rates over Portland and
hence, at all such normal times, if no
grain buyers combine existed at Tacoma
the wheat shipper could obtain at Tacoma
at least three-fourths of a cent a bushel
more for his wheat than the Portland
buyer could afford to pay.
Moreover under the State Grain Com
mission's SS-pound standard test weight
for No. 1 grade of wheat. Tacoma buyers
pay for such wheat as No. 1. while Port
land grades and pays for same as No. 2.

Daughter of Detroit Mil
lionaire, Col. Hecker.
DETROIT. Mich., Nov. 9. (Special.)
The laws of the State of Michigan today
formally put an end to the wedded life
of Countess Louise May de Szillassy.
daughter of Colonel Frank J. Hecker, of
this city, and Count Gyula Hope Joseph
de Szillassy, formerly secretary of tho
Austrian Legation at Washington and
now a resident of his native land. The
request for the annulment of the mar
riage came from the Countess and the
proceedings were purposely staged lato
this afternoon, when least likely to at
tract attention. The Count made no
effort to combat the desire of his wife.
Although non-support waa the technical
ground on which the divorce was granted,
other elements were introduced into the
testimony by both Countess de Szillassy
and her father.
Father Kicks tho Brute.
"Our married life was unhappy almost
from the very first." said the Countess in
her testimony. "The Count began im
mediately Importuning me for large sums
of money, and -when I failed to secure
them bis treatment of me was so brutal
that I was compelled to send for my
father to take me away. Since that time
my father has been the sole contributor
to my support and that of my son.
Colonel Hecker testified In corroboration
of the repeated demands which were
made on him for money and related a
stormy Interview which took place on
his arrival at the De Szillassy castle in
response to his daughter's cablegram.
The American father and the titled son-
in-law were the principals and the pro
ceedings ended by Colonel Hecker s un
ceremoniously kicking the Count out of
the room.
"Warning to Others.
In granting the divorce. Judge Mandell
said:
"The present unfortunate tragedy of
two worlds Is another powerful Instance
of the almost Inevitable unhappiness that
results from the wedding of American
blood with empty title and glittering
rank, yet the mad race for titles on
the one hand and American wealth on
the other continues. It should be a les
son to the girls of our country."
The Heckcr-De Szillassy nuptials were
the social event In Detroit of the season
of 1SSS and brought to Detroit a large
number of noted people. Colonel Hecker
was chief of the transportation service
of the United States Army during the
Spanish War. was a warm friend of
Secretary Alger and President McKlnley
and recently served as a Panama Canal
Commissioner. He is owner of the De
troit Free Press and his wealth Is num
bered at several million.
Since her return to Detroit. Countess de
Szillassy has remained In seclusion and Is
never seen in the society where she was
once so prominent a leader.

stand simply because he is a. man.
Many women suffer in silence and drift along
from bad to worse, knowing full well that thev
ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural
modesty impels them to shrink from exposing them
selves to the questions and probably examinations of
even their family physician. It is unnecessary.
."Without money ofprice you can consult a woman,
whose knowledge from actual experience is great.
