NEGOTIATIONS WITH CHINA SOON. R um I r . In Close Accord W ith tho United State*—Other European Na- tlbn* Preparing to Folio*v. Germany’s Position. WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.—Favorable at-wes _hsa reached Washington from the European chancellories indicating tllnf a complete agreement as. to China is with- in sight. The agreement will be on the basis of the propositions laid down by secretary Hay in his note of July 3 and the subsequent notes treating of that sub-, jeet. The accord ot Russia with the. United States is more complete than was anticipated «t first, aud the reports show that aU of the European nations proba- bly are placing themselves iu position to take advantage of the opening made by the United States and soou will be ready to begin negotiations for a settlement with the Chinese government. The Russians already have given notice ot such purpose, and while the text of the French note on this subject referred to in yesterday’s press dispatches has not reached the state department the offi- cials are satisfied that this hi correctly reported and that France, like Russia, is ready to negotiate at once. As for- ^ermauy, either tlie position of that government has been misunderstood or it has sustained a change of mind. Possibly' tbe former is the case, bnt, how- ever that may be, it is quite certain from the advices which have reached Wnab- ingtau that, the German government, up- on careful inspection of the plans for a Hettlemelit projected by the United States,* finds therein nothing Inconsistent with the German aspirations. Therefore it may be expect# that Germany, too, will be prepared goon t© join in this common movement toward a settlement. It may be Mated that altogether t be prospects of ass adjsssment of the Chinese difficulty without resort to formal war ore very much brighter than they were one week ago. The news developments are few, being confined to a cablegram from Mr. Con- ger reciting the departure of the Russian -minis!ter nnd salt from Peking and an authentication by Minister Wu of tbo edict providing for tbe punishment of Tuan and the guilty princes. p»«aam Pcnlab Post*- - pfi ZtfTVki Shanghai,' Oct. S.—The <>1>ject of Monday’s movement south o t the .Imperial hunting park was to punish the Chinese for firing on a German patrol. General von Hoepfner’s force, -which included a battery, burned several villages where arms were found. The German commander then proceed- ed to Nan-hung-nen and dispersed a body of Boxers outside the town. Half were armed with rifles uud the others with pikes and swords. Some of them ad- vanced to within 20 yards of the Ger- man rifles, performing Boxer exercises, and were mowed down. The Americano, with the assistance of missionaries, are trying a system of pacification through- out numerous .villages ia the vicinity of Tung-chnu. ■ Mild Orders io Shoot Foreigner*. BEBLIN, Oct. S.— -Official advices from Peking,- dated Sept. 23, assert that a further examination of tbe Chinese non- commissioned officer accused of the mur- der of Baron von Ketteler resulted in thlrf statement: “On June 21 I and my people received orders from a prince to shoot foreigners wherever we came across them.” The accused, it appears, denied tbat theordor was to shoot a minister or the German minister, and he declared himself uuable to say which prince gave tbe ordejr. .

LONDON, Oct. 3.— -There is no fresh news from China today except a Shang- hai rumor tbat the allies huve captured Shan-bai-kwan aud a report from Can - ton that mission property' has been de- stroyed at Kung-mun, on the West river.

The question of the city, acquiring the beach by condemnation proceedings, with restrictions annexed. Is just co« balng discussed In every quarter. Mr. Bradley still insists on condemnation procejdloge. City Solicitor :B»wMlnfe liaiwdifS-JMs' question this morning: r : ) “Could the- condemnation commission- ers appointed by the court appraise the beach at the price set by Mi Bradley, namely, f 150,000, or would tht ; beiibllged to place oa the property its real market value?’ Counselor Hawkins made this veply: ‘‘The condemnatlo commissioners would be, obliged: by law aqd o^th to award such damagea as they dtetennlne the beach to be really w6rtb, without an/ regard whatever to the price placed upon it by Mr. Bradley,. "In determining the Value Qt tbg.beai.i'. the condemnation .com® Issljmers 1 - tte rlgjhit to' BUbptEriu wltDesseff, - '8Hch testimony, and to examine such booka and paper* as they shall <leem-,aeces*ary with - in tbe rules 6t law to asc^rlilii'UfO.^lue of the property to fee condemned. If they conclude tbat ihe beaeb is worth $500,000 after hearing testimony, it would be their doty to award atscb sum; it would be a violation of tbeir oatbs got te do so. ■■ ' ‘‘One of the principal danger In taking condemnation' proceedings fe* which aay condltloas are to be annexed, under’ the law as it now stands, would be this Im- possibility of disposing, of tlie city te»ds to pay the amount of tbe commissioners’ award. I am satisfied that, as between Mr. Bradley and tbe city, if condemnation proceedings' were taken and conditions annexed such as he desires, no proceed- ings would be taken in tbe courts to dis- turb them; but when 0^,900 In beads are placed on tbe pabllq market for sale, before tbey van be disposed of a firm of tbe best Ja^yern.of. Nt-r; Yorit city most be convinced beyond all doubt that every proceeding, from the formation ot city government down to tbe present time, has been legal, and tbat every law under which tbe bonds are to be Issued la con- stitutional and bas been strict! s and tech- nically followed. “I think - It only proper tp say tbat there is considerable merit lr Mr. Brad- ley’s desire to annex certain ..conditions when he finally disposes of ttie beach. H e, feels that he has thiree ieWeste to; protect: First, the Interests of Asbury Park as a whole; second, tbe Interests of the people who own property on tLo ocean front; and, third, his own Interests. “Mr, Bradley, has been appealed to by a gr*at ms ay of tbe hotel owners of Asbury Park and by a number of other property owners.add requested not to mako a con- veyance of tbe beach without incorpora- ting .such restrictions In tbe deed os would be a protection to Asbury Park for all future time from an Invasion of such structures as bas made the beach of Coney Island tend other places *cs objec- tionable. I know.these appeals have had great influence with him.” In commenting on Mr. Bradley’s .pres- ent attitude regarding tbe transfer ot the beach, Dr. Wilbur, who is chairman of the committee: appointed by Council to wait on him, said this: “I do not Bee bow the committee can act further in the matter, that is, aa far as Mr, Bradley ts concerned.. While the Senator has not said In oo ino^iy Words tbat he will not dispose of bis beaih ex- cept by condemnation proceedings, that,' to my mind, is the Inference in Me latest expression. * vr; “I Intend to wait on Counsellor Haw- kins and get bis opinion. Comm^i Coun- cil can then decide what further stftpa to. take." ' :y ‘-/ Advertise In tbe Journal’s Unt-A- Word .Column.

United S ta tes is more complete than was anticipated «t first, aud the reports show that aU of the European nations proba­bly are placing themselves iu position to take advantage of the opening made by the United S tates and soou will be ready to begin negotiations for a settlement w ith the Chinese government.

The Russians already have given notice ot such purpose, and while the tex t of the French note on this subject referred to in yesterday’s press dispatches has not reached the sta te departm ent the offi­cials a re satisfied th a t this hi correctly reported and th a t France, like Russia, is ready to negotiate a t once.

CONDEMNATION ISNOT 8EST;1«TG|©»

Hawkins Says ©et /Reach Thus and GraVe Dififictsl-

ties WII8‘Arise.The question of the city, acquiring the

beach by condemnation proceedings, with restrictions annexed. Is just c o « balng discussed In every quarter. Mr. Bradley still insists on condemnation procejdloge.

City Solicitor :B»wMlnfe liaiw difS-JM s' question this morning: r : )

“Could the- condemnation commission­ers appointed by the court appraise the beach at the price set by Mi Bradley, namely, f 150,000, or would tht ; beiibllged to place oa the property its real market value?’

Counselor Hawkins made this veply: ‘‘The condemnatlo commissioners

would be, obliged: by law aqd o^th to award such damagea as they dtetennlne the beach to be really w6rtb, without a n / regard whatever to the price placed upon it by Mr. Bradley,.

"In determining the Value Qt tbg.beai.i'. the condemnation .com® Issljmers 1 - t terlgjhit to' BUbptEriu wltDesseff, - '8Hchtestimony, and to examine such booka and paper* as they shall <leem-,aeces*ary w ith­in tbe rules 6 t law to asc^rlilii'UfO.^lue of the property to fee condemned. I f they conclude tbat ihe beaeb is worth $500,000 after hearing testimony, it would be their doty to award atscb sum ; it would be a violation of tbeir oatbs got te do so. ■■ '

‘‘One of the principal dan ger In taking condemnation' proceedings fe* which aay condltloas are to be annexed, under’ the law as it now stands, would be this Im­possibility of disposing, o f tlie city te»ds to pay the amount o f tbe commissioners’ award. I am satisfied that, as between Mr. Bradley and tbe city, if condemnation proceedings' were taken and conditions annexed such as he desires, no proceed­ings would be taken in tbe courts to dis­turb them ; but when 0 ^ ,9 0 0 In beads are placed on tbe pabllq market for sale, before tbey van be disposed of a firm of tbe best Ja^yern.of. Nt-r; Yorit city most be convinced beyond all doubt that every proceeding, from the formation ot city government down to tbe present time, has been legal, and tbat every law under which tbe bonds are to be Issued la con­stitutional and bas been strict! s and tech­nically followed.

“I think - It only proper tp say tbat there is considerable merit lr Mr. Brad­ley’s desire to annex certain ..conditions when he finally disposes of ttie beach. H e , feels that he has thiree ieW este to; protect: First, the Interests o f Asbury Park as a whole; second, tbe Interests of the people who own property on tLo ocean front; and, third, his own Interests.

“Mr, Bradley, has been appealed to by a gr*at ms ay of tbe hotel owners of Asbury Park and by a number of other property owners.add requested not to mako a con­veyance of tbe beach without incorpora­ting .such restrictions In tbe deed os would be a protection to Asbury Park for all future tim e from an Invasion of such structures as bas made the beach of Coney Island tend other places *cs objec­tionable. I know.these appeals have had great influence with him.”

In commenting on Mr. Bradley’s .pres­ent attitude regarding tbe transfer ot the beach, Dr. Wilbur, who is chairman of the committee: appointed by Council to wait on him, said this:

“I do not Bee bow the committee can act further in the matter, that is, aa far as Mr, Bradley ts concerned.. While the Senator has not said In oo ino^iy Words tbat he will not dispose of bis beaih ex­cept by condemnation proceedings, that,' to my mind, is the Inference in Me latest expression. * vr;

“I Intend to wait on Counsellor Haw­kins and get bis opinion. Comm^i Coun­cil can then decide what further stftpa to. take." ' : y ‘-/

OBJECT TO A NEW GROVE F I R E HOUSE

West Grove Residents Want an Injunction to Prevent

its Construction.Opposition to the building of the new

engine house for tbe E. H. 8tokes and Washington Are companies o f Ocean Grove baa developed In West Grove, and as a result the commissioners, are not proceeding very fast. , "

I t is even said that certain taxpayers of West Grove are ragdy to serve'6e injunc­tion 6u the fire commissioners’When they begin the construction of. the building.

The ground for this {njahatloa would be the fact that those living within the. Are district have not .voted an appropria­tion for a new engine honee.

There is no doubt that new quarter are needed for the companies.mentioned, de­clare the Ocean Grove firem en., Some time ago the fire commissioners bad plans prepared for a new building tb occu py the site on which tbe present Srs quarters stand. The plans were put out, and are now in the hands of local contractors for their blda ■ / . . i . : . ->' ' , ' ■ ■ ' , f >.-

Many of fee resident^ o f West Grove, which is a part of the fire dlstrlct, while not opposed to a neW engine house, ob­jected seriously to the manner in which tt was to be built. They consulted among themselves and were satisfied that tbe building cpnld not be constructed, on the 'ground that no appropriation bad been "voted. f :* . ,

One of those interested said this morn­ing that legal steps would be taken just as soon as the fire commissioners com­menced to tear down tbe buildings now used by the Stores and Washington com­panies.

William Taylor is secretary of the Board of Fire Commissioners H e said today that he did not apprehend any trouble and intimated that the construction of the new building would be begun when the bids were all in and decided upon.

Let’s have that heach purchase question settled by m utual agreem ent and thus do away with condemnation proceedings.

You’ll cease to be councilman only a little while, you know.

A BROAD AND NARROW ROAD.We do not take any.exceptlon to City

Solicitor H awkins’ support of Mr. Brad­ley’s insistence tbat there m ust be condl- tl msjattached to the transfer of the beach to the city. Mr. Bradley cannot be blamed for bis zeal for the city’s welfare, since,

'those conditions a*adesired to farther'ita welfare. B ut we do take exception to Mr. Bradley’s Insisting on conditions In the face of the fact that he cannot annex a single condition if the beach Is to be sold under condemnation proceedings.

Mr. Hawkins very forcibly points out the danger that would.arise from m aking th e purchase of the beach under condem-

Moreover, Mr. flaw kina points out the fact tbat the condemnation commissioners are bound by oath and law to assess what they believe to be the true value o f the beach.

A ll are agreed that Its valne Is far greater than the figure Mr. Bradley will sell It for.

From all of which we conclnde that the UOStgenero.ua th ing Mr. Bradley can do is to sell the beach outright, resigning tem- porily as councilman to do so.

LONDON, Oct. 3 —Yesterday’S poll­ings prove th a t the Country is taking1 a strong interest in the election, the aggre­gate votes being in moat cases much lar­ger than in 1895. The Conservative p a ­pers are quite satisfied t h a t ' th e govern­ment, will he returned to power w ith a m ajority quite <as large ns it had in th'e last parliament, if not even a greater. T he Liberal organs are still hopeful th a t the pollings y e t to come may have some surprise 'in store, although they recognise that their chances are slender. The Daily News says: . . . " :' “A great improvement in the pace ihhst

be made if any sweeping reduction of the government’s bloated m ajority Js to ’be effected." : . '

The Daily Chronicle says: “T he gov- em inent are ndt entirely out of their cal­culation so fa r as the ‘kbnki’ rally is con­cerned, bu t they will have to m ake th e - best, of the fac t that' there is a strong L iberal ra lly a t 'th e same time.” ‘ '

T he Standard and ■ T he' Dally Mail agree th a t “L ittle Englandism " as a par­liam entary force is dead, all the Liberals' thus fa r returned, except Messrs. La- bh'uehere'hhd B m hs, being imperialists.

T he Times considers ih a t! th e pollings up to date “prove the existence o f a big Unionist revival^ in all industrial and working class centers.” ;

i B a lfo u r .R e -e le c te d .. LONDONj Cfet. 3.—The returns from

B attersea, E as t Manchester, N ortham p­ton and-Swansea were published shortly before midnight. The result o f the polic­ing in TSast M anchester is the re-election of M rJ A. J . B alfour by a m ajority which exceeds by 1,677 votes the m ajority he secured a t the general election of 1805. '

dredges beihg built by the M aryland Steel company for the Metropolitan Dredge company; New York, was launch­ed yesterday from the ways o f the build­ers a t Sparrow 's point. Miss Onderdonk, daughter of Mr. - Andrew Onderdonk, vice president qf the Metropolitan company, christened the vessel Thomas. The Thom­as Is 'the largest seagoing, self propelling dredge in this country, and her ownera will employ her in dredging the new E ast channel'of New York harbor, for which they have received the government con­trac t. H er dimensions are: Length, 300 feet; beam, 52% feet; depth of hold, 26 feet.

H ill Spealca In R ich m o n d .R ICHM OND, Oct. 3.—Although the

w eather here last night was intensely disagreeable, a cold drizzling rain fall­ing, a large crowd assembled a t the Res­ervoir P a rk Casino, a mile from the city, to hear_Hgn. David B. H ill of New York spealc. Mr. H ill was introduced in' a few appropriate words by S ta te D em ocratic Chairm an J . Taylor Ellyson and was accorded an enthusiastic reception. Mr. H ill’s speech was largely confined to !» constitutional argum ent against imperial­ism. H e hard ly touched upon the finan­cial issue. H e sa'id th a t as imperialism was the param ount issue it was natural and proper th a t he should confine his ad­dress to th a t theme.

The Galveston Relief Committee an­nounces that It haa about 4,000 volumes of a handsome publication entitled, “Pictur­esque Galveston,’’ containing over a hun­dred pages and fu ll o f views of the stricken city la Its now destroyed beauty, wblch are offered to th e charitable public for $2 a vo lum e." W ith tbe proceeds from the sale of the book th e needy are to be helped. 1 1 •

This is an appeal fo r hum anity’s sake. A ll who desire the beantlfol souvenir may place their orders w ith • the J o u r n a l . W hen the edition Is exhausted the cash w ill be returned by the committee.

The J ooknal ,1s assured, upon the com­m ittee’s honor, tbat no one will be disap­pointed with the bonk. .

ADDRESS BY PRESIDENT MITCHELL

A C o n ve n tio n o f A n th r a c iie W o r k « r i to B e H eld to. T a k e A c t i o n ’ In

R e g a r d to th e I te c e n t Ot* fera o t O p erato r*.

W IL K E SB A K R E , Pn„ Oct. .3.—The parade and mass meeting of the striking miners in this city- yesterday was the greatest labor demohstrution ever held in : northeastern Pennsylvania. The weather was favorable for a large turnout. The sun shone brightly all day, and it was more like a day in June than October.

Early in the morning^ the steam and electric roads began hauling the people into the city, nnd many thousands came on foot f r o m t h e nearby towns. The buildings along the roufe of the parade were decorated with flags and -bunting, .and the city presented a holiday nppear- aoce.i P resident Mitchell and party arrived j to m -Hazleton shortly a fte r 1 o’clock and were m et a t the depot by a large nnd en­thusiastic crowd. The_visitors were given a cheer and were then driven to their ho­tel.

The parade, headed > by President Mitchell- and th ? officers of the national executive board, started a little a fte r 2 o’clock, and it required an hour and 20 minutes to pass a given point. I t is esti­m ated th a t there were fully 15,000 men an d 1 breaker boys in line. The great bulk of the paraders was made np of stalw art

. men. As a rule they were well dressed, and some of them from their appearance might be taken for a body of farmers. They did not m arch with precision, but ■were a dense, mass of humanity. They ■walked six, five and four abreast* The music w as furnished by about 40 brass bands and drum corps.

Many banners and transparencies were carried by the men. Among the most no­ticeable were these: “We w ant onr din­ner pails filled with substantial food, not 'coal barons’ toffy;” “W e are fighting a cause th a t is ju st and right;” "S tand by President Mitchell and the .union;” “Our union m ust be recognized;” “W e will no longer be slaves;” “2,240 pounds for a ' ton;” “W e w ant two weeks' pay.” :

The breaker boys carried banners wl.ich read: “ We need schooling, but n.upt work;” “Save us. from the whims o! the sheriff and deputies;” “Down with oi.p.esaion; w» will stand by Mitchell.”

’'th e parade passed over the principal sticets of the city, aud thousands of peo­ple lined the sidewalks. H ere and there an enthusiastic admirer o f President Mitchell would break through the lines and in sis t'o n shaking hands with him. The men from P ittston had a float with four men representing “Coal Barons.” They were drinking w hat purported to be champagne. Directly following w as a float with miners dining on bread and water. A stretcher was carried contain­ing uidaium y .representing, a minl-r who, had ju st lost his life in a mine.

President Mitchell reviewed the great arm y of m archers on the river common, H e w as generously applauded by the marchers. Business was a t a standstill in the city all the afternoon. T he super­intendents o f the coal companies and their clerks viewed the parade from their office buildings. One coal man said it w as a very creditable demonstration.

Following is President Mitchell’s speech in p a r ti ^

“A man would indeed be devoid of feel­ing if he were not proud to have the op­portunity to stand before a multitude like th is . which is making a figfyt for something Which i t . believes to be just.I am proud to know th a t you are com­posed of coal miners and their families.1 am proud to know th a t you command in this tight the respect of the clergymen, th a t you-have. the sympathy of the pub­lic and that the g reat American press hus said with one voice th a t your cause is a righteous one. Np man would go further to avoid a strike than I, but when all honorable methods fail then I favor strikes. I went to New York to call on the operators a t the sacrifice of

. personal dignity to get a hearing, but the men who employ you tu rn ed ‘me away nnd even refused to receive a committee of their own men for-the purpose of talk­ing over the differences.

“The greatest strike" in the liisto'ry of the world is drawing to a close. - A l- . ready the great coal carrying railroads have agreed to increase your wages 10 per cent, which is a great victory in it­self. True, it is enough, bu t it does not satisfy us, but the time is not fa r dis­tan t when the anthracite coal miners will receive as much for their labor as any Other class of workmen in the world.

“ In this struggle do not, place absolute faith in John Mitchell or any other one n a n . P u t your faith in the organization. W ork hard for its prosperity, for the stronger it is the better you are armed for the struggle in which you nre now engaged. This strike shall not be de-

clared off by me. It shall not be endeduntil s ' convention of anthracite miners shall so decide. Every-union and every

• colliery will be "asked to send one or more delegates to a convention to determine the question for themselves. Yoyr inter­ests are greater than mine. I shall not decide the question of your going bnck to work. You must vote on th a t yonrself. I will not pretend to determine your fate o r th a t of the 500,000 who are directly . affected by this struggle.”

Mr. Mitchell .then briefly reviewed the . struggles of the miners -during the past

—-40 years and said that the miners cannot expect to have a l l ‘the, evils which have

.. been heaped upon tH^m during the last ha lf century of unorganised labor righted a t once. Continuing Mr. Mitchell said: “ 1 firmly believe th a t victory will be achieved by the men standing together. Do not let one of yon move until all move. " I f you stand together we will achieve a greater victory than was ever attained by labor in the an thracite coal region. I f nothing Hse Is achieved than th e taking of the young b^ys who today yelled as I passed them in the' parade th a t ‘Mitchell is all right!’ out of the breakers and placing them in tbe Bchools, th e future will show th a t Mitchell was all right. I nm firmly, of the belief th a t the m others of the breaker boys nightly proy to the Ruler of the universe to de-' clde in favor of the men, so th a t-th e ir boys can go to the schools.
