The Estacada Progress I m i« C idi Tt ir a l i v ESTACADA.................. OREGON ANAEOHY RAMPANT. London Mob Condemns Alfonso and Blames King Edward. Loiulou, Oct. 18.—The red Hag was raised iu Loudon this afternoon and a large mob moved upon the Spanish embassay to make a dem onstration of its disapproval of the execution of Pro lessor Francisco Ferrer at Barcelona. Police drove off the crowds in their usual bloodless effectual way. But un easiness pervaded the neighborhood. The trouble began at a mass meeting in T rafalgar square organized by sev eral socialists and labor bodies. Sev eral hundred members of these organi zations marched to the square carrying red Hags draped with crepe and bearing inscriptions denouncing K ing Alfonso. A black bordered banner was left stand ing against the Nelson column with big letters, “ To Hell W ith the M urderer Alfonso." Several laborite members of parlia meut spoke. Victor Grayson, of Man Chester, the socialist member, capped the climax by declaring th at if the head of every king of Europe were toru from his body, it would not pay half the price of F e rrer’s life. He called the Russian emperor a “ dirty m onster," and said King E d ward, who could have prevented the execution, was responsible for what might happen iu England ns a result of it. He demanded the expulsion of the Spanish m inister. The socialist societies, carrying ban ners, then marched to the Spanish em bassy, singing revolutionary songs and hooting King Alfonso. A rabble ac companied them, filling the streets. It was dark when they reached the open square in front of the embassy, and they found the square filled with police. The embassy window’s were dark and tnere was no sign of life. The police would not let the procession enter the square, nor even stop. The crowds turned back and kept moving up Victoria street, toward the Parliam ent buildings, singing, shouting and groaning. The reserves drove the mob into the side streets, dispersing it without trouble. SNOW COVERS EAST. W U TALKS W ITH SPIRITS.

STANFIELD GETS ON MAP. ism last Sunday night, M inister Wu Ting Fang, the best educated Chinaman in the world, returned to tho “ medi u m s" last night for a full bite. He left the “ sean ce" chock full of infer matiou from the spirit worli\, for through the “ m edium " he is supposed to have consulted the spirts of the late Fresideut M cKinley and his own dead mother. And the latter talked in real Chinese language. M inister Wu doesn’t say he is a con vert to spiritualism . In fact, he tries to avoid the subject entirely while talk ing with newspaper nieu. He admits, however, that he is interested, and that he may attend other “ seances" before retiring from his post in the near fu ture. H is first experience occurred last Sunday night at a public meeting, where anonymous Chinese spirits were described to Dr. Wu by a “ trance m edium ," as hovering in the distin guished diplom at’s immediate vicinity. Dr. Wu exhibited great interest. L ast night he went again, this time to a smaller seance at a private house Dr. Wu refused last night to discuss his experience or impressions, and even showed solicitude lest his presence at tho seance should be the subject of newspaper mention. The woman me dium who officiated—a different one this time— brought to him messages purporting to come from the late Presi «lent McKinley, who was an intim ate friend of Dr. Wu. and also from the m inister’s own mother. Th'- ¿atter was the more startling because, apparently, delivered in the Chinese .1 guage. These messages are claimed by the spiritualists to be brought to the me dium in trance by the spirit of a 16- year-old American Indian girl, under whose “ c o n tro l" she speaks in broken English; yet the conversation between Dr. Wu and the medium, w hjc osten sibly under this “ control," was some what extensive, lasting fully five min utes, and seemed to be in the Chinese vernacular, question and answer, unin telligible to the auditors, passing back and forth with considerable freedom. There was every evidence th at the dip lomat perfectly understood the commu nication which apparently appeared to come from the spirit of Di. W u’s own mother. It was asserted that the medium and her “ c o n tro l" are both absolutely ignorant of the Chinese lan guage. and Pacific coasts are baskiug in suu- shine, the Middle and Middle W estern states find com fort in furs. The first chilly blasts of w inter have swept a section from M auitoba to Kansas, and from West Virginia to Colorado. Most of the states within this radius are cov ered with the first snowfall of the win ter, aud accompanying the white Hakes was a piercing north wind th at cut to the bone. From M auitoba comes the report that the mercury has fallen to near zero; that snow covers a largo portion of tho province to the depth of three inches. The blizzard has raged in Duluth for two days. A cuttiug wind is driving in from Lake Superior, and the coustant Hurries of mixed snow and rain have covered the streets and sidewalks with a thin coating of ice, giving the city a December appearance. In D etroit the tem perature hovered between 30 aud 40 degrees above zero. A 30m ile wind prevailed. Points in Ohio, Indiana aud Illinois report a drop iu tem perature to from 40 to 20 above zero. Every where there is snow. At Omaha, L in coln and Norfolk, Ned)., the mercury stands at 22 above. Des Moines and other places in Iowa are covered with snow, and the northern gale has sent the therm om eter down to between 30 and 22 above the zero m ark. In K an sas Gity, Mo., it stood a t 28 above. Other places in Missouri report the a r rival of wiuter. K ansas prairies have taken on a robe of white, and the Sun flower state has put up its storm shut ters. Oklahoma and the Texas Pan handle are shivering. All of Wisconsin awoke this morning to sweep paths through a six-inch snow. Tho tem pera ture throughout the Badger state ranges from 10 to 30 above. A howling north wind raged all night. The gale lashed Lakes Superior and Michigan into a fury. The mad waters washed the decks of tho larger steam ers, and anxiety was felt for smaller craft, but aside from a few tug and tow boats drugging their anchor until they reached tho beach, no damage is re ported.
