SPLENDID
ADDRESS I MADE BY THE HON. WILLIAM DULEY FOULKE LAST NIGHT AT THE COLISEUM He Pays a Glowing Tribute to President Roosevelt as Civil Service Commissioner, PRESIDENT AND CITIZEN Judge Parker's Past Record Gone Over by the Pluent Spearker . A Large Crowd. William Dudley Foulke, formerly civil service commissioner of the present administration, delivered ' an excellent address to a large crowd at tho Coliseum last evening. On account of his close connection with the administration he was enabled to give facts and not theories. His address was frequently interrupted with applause froni his interested audience. Mr. Foulke was introrIueeir brnheTfoTl.-rrhlvr Shiveley made some 'very strong comments on the recent speech of Mr. Bryan in this city and also of the speech which Henry U. Johnson made the same eevning. Mr. Phiveley made a strong appeal to the younger men or the first voters. Mr. Foulke in his speech said in part: ' "I have recently returned from the East, and I know the arguments 1 by which the managers of the Demo- . cratic party in that section, Parker, Cleveland, Belmont, Sheehan and 1 Carlisle the Wall street faction, I which is now in control, are seeking to secure the votes of the independents in New York, New Jersey and Conecticut. They tell them that the 1 Democratic candidate now is both I safe and sane ; and that Bryanism and free silver will be buried beyond I all hope of resurrection m the Demo1 cratic party itself, if Parker can I enly be elected. 1 had it from Carl 1 Sehurz himself, the groat Democratic auxiliary among the independents, that he no longer has any fear of free silver. The Democratic management is bringing Mr. Bryan into Indiana to lead a forlorn hope and pave the State, in spite of his own declarations that Parker was not a fit -man to be Democratic candidate, and that the nomination had been secured bv unfair and fraudulent 'I means. But they don't dure to let I Mr. Bryan go to New York, because I the whole argument in that section rests upon the proposition that he is to remain permanently ignored and f dethroned. 'The 'argument then is. that we i should vote for the Democratic cangdidate now because he is both safe and sane. T like that word "sane" 1 for in its shadow lies the confession of the insanity of four and eight years ago. It is the Democracy of today declaring' that the Democracy of Bryan belongs to the domain of lunacy. Now. my Democratic friend, supMise you had a farm and the Iquestion came up, whom should you engage to manage that farm for the next four years. There are two apfplieants, one has been in charge for Jseven years, the crops have been treasonably good, the profits have S:een fair, there was always enough ko eat, drink and wear, and you know that the man in charge was a ijman of sterling honest; but the oth?r annlieant demands the place, and ffyou ask him: "Where are your re commendations!' Have you a letter (Continued on fifth page.)
COLORED PEOPLE Of Richmond Are Paid a Tribute by New Paris Mirror. A crowd of colored people from Richmond with some guests from this place danced in the opera house last Wednesday evening. The party did.not break up until a late hour, so late that the strangers were obliged to wait for the five o'clock car to return to their homes. Their demeanor should prove a loud-speaking object lesson to New Paris dancers. Not i one particle of rowdyism or misconduct on the streets is reported They certainly showed us how decent a dance may be and some of our local dancers should be able to take hints.

WEST POINTER ENLISTS IN ARMY .ROBERT, JSEAGEJR SWORN INTO . , - . .. ' " ....... - THE-SERVICE THREE YEARS IS PRIVATE But 'Bob" is Determined to Get a Commission His Uphill Route. Yesterday afternoon Robert Seager went to Dayton, where he was given a physical examination at the United States recruiting station for enlistment in the army. He passed this examination with a high average and this morning he will return to Dayton to be sworn into the service. Mr. Seager w;as a cadet at the United States Military Academy at West Point for three years and last spring he was forced to resign on account of deficiencies in studies, brought about by a prolonged illness during the winter. The army is now recruited up to the required maximum strength and it was necessary for Mr. Seager to receive special authority from the Adjutant General's office at Washington before he could enlist. This was done and the letter of introduction-to the recruiting officer at Dayton furnished Mr. Seager spoke in a most flattering manner of his past record at West Point. While "Bob's" manv friends in this eity regret his leaving they are J proud ot the tact that ne has lctermined to get a commission even if i he has to begin as a private and work up. lie will be assigned to the 19th infantry, stationed at Vancover barracks, Washington State, and will leave with his command for the Philippines next June. At the end of three years service in the ranks Mr. Seager will be examined for a .commission. THEJLKS Have a Business Meeting at Their Hall Last Night.

DAN PATCH MAKES NEW MARK FOR PACERS, GOING THE MILE ' IN 1:56 FLAT : IT IS THE FASTEST MILE Ever Made by a Horse in Harness at Memphis, TennesseeBeat His Own Record. Memphis, Tenn., October 27. The fastest mile ever made by a horse' in harness, a new mark for the old fashioned high-wheeled sulky, and a j new mark for trotters under saddle, were tne satisfactory developments of the racing on the Memphis track yesterday a day marred, however, by a serious acident to the veteran driver, Ed Ceers, who has a broken leg as the result of a bad fall on the track. Dan Patch, in an attempt to beat 2:0014, made a new mark for pacers, going in 1:56 flat. This beats the previous record held by himself, by a quarter of a second: Major Delmar cii-cled . the track hitched to a highwheeled sulky in 2:07, thereby reducing by a second and three-quarters Maud S's mark, made in ISSo, at Cleveland. C. K. O. Billings rode Charley Mac a mile in 2:1 44, sucreding in breaking the professional record for trotters under saddle. Thus three more great events were added to the haenings at the fa mous track at iillings 1'ark, AMATEURS

BALTIC FLEET WILL BE HELD UNTIL AFTER THE NORTH SEA DISPUTE IS WELL SETTLED Sensational Report Has Bees Made by Admiral Rojestvensky THE RUSSIAN ADMIRAL Says He Was Attacked by Two Torpedo Boats off Dogger Bank, St. Petersburg Excited. (By Associated Press.) London, October 27. While. li't time limit has been fixed for the receipt of Russia's reply, it is generally understood that the route will be barred by the channel squadron commanded by Yice-Admiral Lord Charles Beresford. At 3 o'clock thia' aft ernoou. Lord Lansdowne expressed his belief that a peaceful settlement would be arrived at. : Ambassador Benckcndorff paid another visit? WojLxjrd-irLtonsdowiw this afternoon presumably to discuss Rojestvensky's report. Tbii caused- considerable bewilderment here, since while the statement that two torpedo boats were among tha fishing fleet is generally scouted, there is beginnig to be evidence of some disposition to believe in tb possibility that there is another sid to the ,. fisherman's story, and th6 the situation requires more light. The version of Admiral Rojestven sky's report given out , in London says Rojenstvensky states that ther never was any intention of firing on the British trawlers. If a stray shon hit a boat is was entirely accidentaL The trawlers were early notieed by the Russian fleet as it passed Dogger bank. Among the fishing boats two steamers, moving at high speed, and looking exactly like torpedo boats, were observed. RojestVensky eoneluded that these were Japanese torpedo boats. The Russian admiral was of tLv opinion that his squadron fired only lou these two ships. The admiral em phatically denies that a Russian warship was left behind. He declares his officers were in total ignorance of the fact that any of the Russian shots struck the trawlers, and he expresses his extreme regret and that of every man in the fleet that any of the trawlers were damaged, and that any of the crew were killed or wounded. The admiral asks what was the warship noticed hovering near the scene of tim . affair, and declares that all the Russian warships steamed oil together. Rojestvensky further declares that two of the ships on which the Rus sians fired were unmistakably of the warship type. The Foreign Ofiiee regards thu statement of the captain of the Swedish steamer Aldebaran, now at (iefle. Sweden, from Hull, England, as being very- important in indicating that the Russians had previously fired on a defenseless ship, when there was no question of the presence of torpedo boats. It is understood that this point was brought before Ambassador Beckendorff this afternoon. It has also been pointed cut to the ambassadoy that it Is practically impossible for trawlers to move when their nets are down, so they could not have got out of the way of the Russian squadron even if they had been ordered to do so. There was a disposition this afternoon to believe that a wav would
