The royal progress through the "streets, of London, which ave been one of the 'great' spectacular features of Coronation week, but which was abandoned for the Jtime being, be cause of King Edward's Illness, took Iace today and proved to be the moat jrllllant street pageant Londoners have ieen since the Diamond Jubilee. It was icarcoly 48 hours ago uhat the people wakened to a realization of the fact that he affair was to bo a state procession In ill Its grandeur and not a mere drive f the royal family through the metrop olis. Public buildings and business 'houses began to blossom out In holiday attire. Brand stands were hastily erected at points of vantage and In. many Instances (he original plans for the Coronation ageant were fully carried out. , The lejcoratlons have been exceeded before on everal occasions. ... .,. STARTED BY CANNON. It was nearly 11 o'clock when the booming of cannon from an artillery de- achment stationed in St. James' Park, mmediately In the rear of Buckingham Palace, announced to the assembled thou- andg that their Majesties had entered heir- carriage and that the royal" pro fusion was prepared to move. The state arrlage in which their Majesties rode. and which was a veritable dream in ar- Istlo gold and blue enamelling, was lrawn by eight cream-colored horses, kith outriders In uniforms of scarlet and told. Trumpeters In magnificent uniforms Knd mounted upon black chargers cleaf?3 he way for the procession. Behind the rumpeter galloped a Squad of the lousehold Cavalry. Then came eight car tages containing members of the royal amlly. Included among the members vere Princess Beatrice, the Duke and puchess of Argyll, the -Duke of Con- laught. Princess Victoria, Prince and Princess Christian, the Duchess of Al- any and the venerable Duke of Cam ridge. Immediately preceding their Majesties were the Prince and Princess f Wales an'd Prince and Princess Charles f Denmark. THE ROUTE. The route from Bucktogham Palace to luildhall was through the Mall, Marl- orough yard, Pali Mall, Trafalgar quare, . D)mcnjvM . street.- the Strand, temple Bar, Fleet strset, St, Paul's Churchyard, Cheapside and King street, fhe entiro route was lined with troops, felnforced by the Metropolitan 'Police and t the Important street Intersections there vere military bands which played the national anthem as the procession went mat. Back of ths troops were the sepc- atora, a veritable sea of faces, men, wo- nen and children, enthusiastic almost to Ivlldness, and uncomplalngly standing on tptoe to see over the bearskin hats of he foot guards, who 'lined the curbs on oth aides of the street. Not until royalty appeared was there ny demonstration and the audience, be- ause of the eold gloom of the day, was lot as large as was expected. VERY MARTIAL. As .a military pageant the procession Ivas well worth seeing. Every branch of he two, "services w-Jrs represented and ael- om have the people had an opportunity .Witnessing such a large and represente es turnout of the military forces. In dditlon to the detachments of soldiers here were a number of squads of sailors nd, marines from the Terrible and other attleshlps and all along the route the lackles were greeted with the wildest ap- lause. . ' Arriving at Guildhall their Majesties tare received by Lord' Mayor Dlmsdale nd the Aldermen. The royal party en- bred through the Gresham-street en- ance and after a formal address by the Lord Mayor the party passed Into the reat hall. The arrival was witnessed y a crowd of several, hundred notables ccupying ' seats In a pavilion especially rected for the occaslonja. the Guildhall ard. Several of the spacloiis rooms In ha ancient-edifice were- nttd up as re- f ring rooms for the King afid Queen and heir respective suites. The municipal Inner was carried out in full accordance Ith the plans which were ' originally arried to a forward stage when the oronatlon. festivities -wer--postponed. heir Majesties and the other members the royal family, occupied seats at a ibla on a dais at the northern end of the rea.ttanrruettng ball. The compnny resent numbered between seven and ght , hundred and included besides the lSclalj Of the city of London, the heads of tha -yarlous guilds, members of Parlia ment and ether persons of distinction. American Ambassador Choate occupied a prominent. place V, ' -' v"- "COUNTER-MARCHED. At the conclusion of the (unction, which lasted from 1 o'clock until a Quarter past 8, the royaJ" procession was reformed and the start back to Buckingham Palace was begun. The scenes attending the progress on the return journey were characterised by the same enthusiastic demonstrations witnessed to the forenoon. Especially elaborate were tha decorations In the Southward section, where' arches had been erected and the facades of business house and dwellings; pursuant to the original Coronation plans. Near the end of the" Joules when the"f oysr carriage turned into Whitehall street, a thousand of moro members of the Stock Exchange., who occupied a special stand, sang "Rule Britannia" with telling effect. Late in the afternoon an official bulletin was issued stating that the Mejesties had stood the fatigues of the day unusually well and that the entire royal family would attend the Coronltlon thanksgiv ing service In St Paul's tomorrow. KING SPOKE. LONDON. Oct. 25. The King addressed kthe people In reply to the speech of the Lord Mayor. His remarite were '""b a philanthropic line and with a'tendency toward uplifting the poorer classes. Dur ing the return march the crowds Jfere lrager than those witnessing the formal progress. Enthusiasm ran high. GUILDHALL BURNS. inwnnN Oevt. 25. Before the guests left their places in Guildhall today a fire J broke out in a remote part of the build ing. Over pressure of gas, due to the Illuminations, was the cause. Nothing was said about the blase and he fact of its existence was kept a profound secret until everyone had gotten safely out of the building, thus avoiding any semblance of a panto. Twenty companies were at once dispatched to the scene and fifty Btrrfs -- 4eaa-'0'-iJ--f---i was extinguished at 6 o'clock. Many costly hangings were ruined by water. The rown sliver was saved. RAISED THUNDER Real Cowboys Broke Up Show SURELY WILD WEST Buffalo Bill Was Up Against the Real Thing at Hous ton, Texas, f HOUSTON, Tex., Oct. 25 There was something doing not on the bills at the presentation of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show- here -last night. Three real, cow boys "shot up" the show. They galloped through the arena at a moment when they were least expected and threw ev erything into confusion. The audience, believing it to be a part of the show. cheered them on, and a bloody mix-up followed. Fury 50 horsemen and a bunch of the painted Indians of the performance set a,bout the -capture of the disturbers and for several minutes there was a .lively scrimmage. " The men were well mounted and. It took some time to bring them to terms. They fought to the bitter end and when they were finally overcome. one was fatally wounded and another had his head cut open. They werelassooed and dragged from their horses. It was the most realistic plainsman show ever presented by the company. COME THIS WAY Barrett Boosts Portland Fair ii the Orient. SHANGHAI, Sept. 29. (Correspondence.)

There is little doubt that even the ones which are still shut down will resume by the end of next week.

' INCREASED OUTPUT. -WILKESBARRE, Pa., Oct 26. Nearly 100,000 tons of coal as mined yesterday in this section and the output of today will greatly exceed that figure. The feel ing between the operators and the work men Is getting more cordial and the former seem to be doing everything they can to make the situation easy. Not yet nearly all of the, total force which will be at work In the minus when in full operation has been employed, but the corps of workmen is being Increased hourly and within a few days, as soon as the mines can be put in condition, there Will be work for all In some of the shafts an Immense amount of water had gathered and although pumps have been working-jilght and dav It is being, di- dnihlshea out ' elc-wiy.

No Hesitancy in Confirming Jour- rial's Story as to Brownell. - "I am decidedly In favor of George Brownell, State Senator from Clackamas. I County, for president of the Oregon Sen- I ate." Senator J. H. Mitchell, the Junior i United States Senator from this state, j made this emphatic declaration to a ' Journal reporter this morning, 'M 1 "And will you also support Charles W. Fulton to succeed Senator Simon?" "I will not aay," said At. Mitchell. The reporter tried a new line of action. 'The Journal published the. statement yes terday that you would support F-il'on and Brownell tor ftie offices of United States Senator and President of the. State Sen ate respectively. Was that not correct?" "I saw the story," said the non-committal Mr. Mitchell. "Where did you get It?" "Well, there was such a meeting as described, between yourself, Mr. William son and Brownell?" suggested the re porter. ."Really," said .the Republican czar, 'l meet these gentlemen every day. Let me tell you about my trip to the Ha waiian Islands." DODGES THE QUESTION. "But did you meet them in conference on Wednesday night and then decide to support Fulton and Brownell?" But the Senator had launched a description ot Honolulu politics, '"mere Is much com plaint of boodllng in the Islands." said, he. "There have been many recent de1 falcatlons, and the committee of which I am a member has taken a trunk full of evidence and will prepare a full re port on the conditions there. We meet in Washington on November 12. which will give none too long a time for prepa ration before Congress goes Into session. The laws of the Islands are miserably defective and while I cannot speak for ths committee as a whole, It is certain mat mtv win recommend: We necessary changes to be made In the cods. The government Is too centralized. The Gov ernor and Secretary of the territory have too much power, and the towns and coun ties too little or none." G0E9 EAST TONIGHT. About this- time the reporter Inserted a query regarding the special session ot the legislature. But the Senator dodged it. "Really." saM he, T canont say. l have been back such a short t.me. And I leave tonight for-Washington, D. C. I will not kq there direct,, but will Journey east stopping at Tacoma. St. Paul. Can ton, Ohio, and New York, at each of which cities I have children whom l will pay a short visit." SOME LOCAL EXCITEMENT. Th announcement of Jhe agreement hy Senator Mitchell to support C. W. Ful ton created the expected excitement in local political circles, comment being fast and furious and varied, as & matter, of course. Last evening,. W. B. Ayiv who- iaoulte4 close to H. W. Scott, was seen to visit Senator Mitchell at his 'apartments at the Portland Hotel, and hold an earnest conference with the Senator. Later, Mr. Ayer conferred with other prom'-im pol iticians who are friendly to Mr. Scott. Mr. Mltohell was also seen to greet BULLETIN Mr. 'Fulton after the Visit of Mr. Ayer, and the two" went into executive aesslon until late at night. Today Jonathan Bourne, who is a can didate for the Senate, waa seen to be In earnest conversation with sumerous per sons, and seemed to have something on his mind relative to the absorbing topic of the day. One of the men with whom he talked was Mr. Brownell himself, the two having been together at the Portland Hotel and leaving that place in company. It is apparent that It was not Intended to have the Fulton-Brownell agreement of Mr. Mitchell get out efor the Sen ator left for Washington tonight, that he might be saved the - annoyance of an swering the questions that would come to hint aa .ft- tnatier .of- - $sue - It was known that It must leak out, but It was thought It could be kept until Mr. Mit chell had departed. The Senator carries with him to Wash ington the perplexing worry of concil iating the Fulton-Brownell people, the Scott contingent, the HIrsch supporters, (though the lust-named Is not known to be a candidate) and keep a watchful eye upon the Simon contingent that will be very much In evidence when the election occurs in January. The Senator received many callers who went to bid him goodbye and wish him good health and ''a continuance of the brilliant success that has attended him during his lust service in the national Congress.
