Associated Press Dispatches.
London, Oct. 31. There was an unexpectedly gloomy feeling this
momiDg on the stock exchange and the Paris bourse, both markets
being influenced, it is inferred, from the aggressive tone of some of
the French papers. Besides this something extraordinary seemB to
have happened, and it looks as if a crisis was approaching.
The British naval preparations are being pushed with great ac
tivity. The British emergency squadron is gathering at Devenport
with all possible speed and seven battle-ships and one cruiser so far
have been designed to join the squadron. The officers and sailors
have been hurriedly recalled from leave of absence, several battle
ships Hnd cruisers at Portsmouth are taking full crews on board, and
other warlike preparations are being made. A number of signalmen,
now on duty with the British channel squadron, which arrived at
I Gibraltar this morning have been ordered home for service.
A sensation was caused by the arrest of a supposed Buasiao spy
at a fort near Harwieh. The man was already under surveillance, and
went to the redoubt, where he tried to obtain some information from
the sentrv reoardincr the fortifications. 1 1 A wah nrrpHtpii nnrl innnirioa

for further particular, spoke as follows:
"During tbe rebellion 40,000 men were

ares, which I have recently completed,

Oregon's Advantazes and Possibilities Appre
ciated in the East.
The Portland Telegram says: "One
needs to travel through tbe East to find
out bow tbe PBoifio Northwest is appie
tiated." Bo deolared H. C. Worlman, of Olds &
King, who has just returned from a
month's business aod pleasure trip
through the Middle Western and Eastern
states. Oregon, he found, stood well io
financial oiroles, and all eyes are turned
in this direotion. He predicts a Urge
immigration to Oregon during the com
ing year.
"In fact," said Mr. Worlman, "I was
more than surprised at the intense inter
est taken in everything pertaining to
Oregon and the Northwest. Eastern
financiers realize that ths Paoiflo ooaBt is
the coming theater of commercial activ
ity. Tbey read ihe signs aright. Our
large orops, oor varied resonroes and
good prloes have been enough, without
tbe golden yista which the trade of tbe
Orient, and especially the Philippines,
opens up. The varied resonroes of the
Northwest have been repeated so often
that it bBS got to be a hackneyed term
with ns aod was received cautiously by
Eastern people. But figures end orops
and prices have broken down all reserve
and foroed recognition in the most preju
diced oiroles. Tbe Eastern people now
realize that instead of boasting about
these wonderfal reeouroes that we have
been overoonaervatiye that we have un
derrated them. Tbe look of interest
which accompanies the mention of the
faot that a man is from Oregon makes
yon feel proud that you are an Oregon
ian. You are looked upou as a specially
favored person,
"The Northwest and its-opportunities
are on tbe tongues of all men. Tbe in
teres! iu everything pertaining to this
section is keen. If a man only registers
from Oregon he is besieged by people
anxious tor information, Tbese are io
fallible signs of the tide of immigration
wbioh is sure to set in this direolioo
Tbe advauoe guard is eveo now here.
Perspectives of no limited manufacturing
industries are opeoed by Ihe settling of
the West. We now have the raw prod'
note, ths power, the fuel ond all Ibe
natural facilities, and only need tbe oon
sumers to make tbe West a great manu
factoring center.
"We are in a position to command all
tbe ospital we need at low rates for tbe
development of our resources. 'Slay
with tbe West is my advioe to young
meo. Here is tbe paradise of tbe world
The new enterprises springing up offer
great returns for well directed energy."
In oonolusioo Mr. Worlman said be
found conditions io the trade coolers of
tbe East healthy. There was some com
plaining in New Tork and Chicago. He
visited the Omaha exposition aod found
that Oregoo exhibits did not suffer by
comparison with any state io the Union ,
