C, Oet. 1.—In the “Old " tonight Colonel Roose- velt dellvered the last scheduled speech of the longest campaign tour r undertaken by a presidential can- te. The auditorium here, which space for 7,000 ‘persons _was ang was hoarse and weary to- night. He talked for an hour, then ‘rought hie speech to a close with the words with which he had opened his campaign: “We stand at Armageddon ,and we battle for the Lord.” In this state, wigh its heavy inter- ests in the tobacco :ndustry, Colonel Roosevelt spoke of the American To- ‘bacco company, saying that when such i & finding was reached as that handed down by the supreme court in the To- bacco trust suit, a receiver should be put in charge of the business. He said his political opponents in both the old parties propose nothing but modifica- tions of the present system of regulat- dng trusts anq that “no such modifi- would change the Tobacco way which would amount to anything.” His proposal, he declared, was not to damage business, but to punish erooked managers of business, “In a case like that of the Tobacco ftrust,” Colonel Roosevelt continued, the government could at once put dn a receiver to run it untll eve thing it had been decided was wrong had been done away with and every objectionable feature removed, Then, and not until then, could the oid own ers come back; and come back with the knowledge that if such acts a8 Mr. Mosse, the banker, suffered.” Colonel Roosevelt left here toni for New York.

C.—Colonel Chilled Roosevelt was obliged to give up the attempt to make a speech. It was not the colonel's only adventure dur- ng his trip across North Carolina. Earlier in the day he was locked out of his car, thinly -clad, and rode on the platform in the sharp air of early morning for 20 minutes before his t was discovered. At Hickory, half a hundred students from Lenora college gave the college cheer, with “Wilson! Wilson!” on the end. “That's a flne cry to keep up the spirits of the side that ought to lose,” Colonel Roosevelt shouted. The cheering continued, despite the protests of those who wished to hear the colonel. A man pushed his way into the midst of the students, an- nouncing, “I'm a Taft republican, but I want a square deal for Roosevelt. '1.1?. college boys have got to keep g “Boys,” Colonel Rooseveit called out, “you are long on noise, but you're just a little short on Intelligence.” The students persisted in their cheering until Colonel Roosevelt’ champion seized the nearest one and attempted to force him out of the crowd. The student aimed a blow at his face. Others joined in. Just then the train started and as 'Colonel Roosevelt lost sight of the crowd the “Taft republican” and the students ‘were still pummelling each other. Colonel Roosevelt reached Asheville at B.50 o'clock this roing, and the schedule called for departure at 7.10.

EXPLOSION KILLS THREE ON TORPEDO BOAT DESTROYER Lisutenant - Morrison Mests - Instant Death—Others Fatally Injured Newport, R.

Donald P. Mor- rison, the chiefiengineers' officer, and ‘wounded elght others, two of whom, J. W. Rumpf and H. L.

Crawford, gunner's mate ol the destroyer Patterson, one of the umpires named to watch the speed tests of the Walke, and John Delaney, a first class fireman of the Walke, were said to be in a critical condi- tion tonight. Others injured were Lieut. Robert L. Montgomery of the destroyer Fanning and umpire of the eed tests; D. S. Kelly, chief machin- Ist's mate; W. E. Kraus, oiler; F. B Conway, oller. The losion came just as the Walke sthrted on a full speed con- ‘bett was suffering from peritonitis and |test in company with other destroyers | of the third group. A heavy. south- erly gale was blowing, kicking up a rough sea, 8o that when ffie:‘sv:u(e's sister ship, Perkins, came up in an- swer to a call for-help, it was neces- sary for the Walke's crew to pour oil o the water before & small boat could venture alongside. Y It is belleved she . will be able to take part in the great naval review in New York this month, The Walke was driving ahead through the heavy seas, with the full power of her englnes, when Lieutenant Train on the bridge heard a muffled roar and felt the destroyer quiver. At once her speed slackened and she be- &an to roll heavily, while steam pour- ed up the hatchways in volumes. Ev- erybody on board knew instantly what had happened. Somebody, without awaiting an order, turned off the steam in both engine rooms, while on deck, Lieutenant Train, with his ship for a moment unmanageable, gave the com- mand that started the rescuers at work, All warships in the American navy have a plentiful supply of oil and this, ang Lieut. Louls F. Thibault quickly headed the crew in breaking out this equipment. Blankets were saturated with the soothing liquid and the rescuers went down into the sc: ing, suffocating atmosphere. ~ They located the explosion victims sprawled about the forward part of the engine room. Rolling their shipmates up in the Dblankets, they staggered back to the deck before the room had been cleared of steam. After a boat from the Peggins, the nearest of the flotilla, had reached the Walke, carrying Hospital Steward Charles McCullough and four men, with & supply of bandages, Lieuten- ant Train, finding his starboarq en- gine worked all right, signalled the other ships that their assistance was | not needed, and under half power put {back up Narragansett bay to the hos- | pital ship Solace, where the wounded wWere transferred.

NO MORE JURORS FOR ETTOR TRIAL. Venire of 350 Talesmen Almost Ex- hausted Yesterday. Salem, Muss, Oct. 1—The venire of 850 talesmen, drawn as possible jurors for the triai of Joseph J. Ettor and Arturo Glovannitti and Joseph Caru- 80 on charges of being concerned in the death of Anna Lipizzo last Janu- ary, was nearly exhausted tonight at the close of the second day of the trial Judge Quinn is expected to order a new panel of equal size to be summon- ed tomorrow. One hundred and twen- ty-nine men were examined by the court today but not one found his way to the jury box, so two jurymen chosen yesterday have no companions thus far. Judge Quinn found that nearly all the talesmen who came before him had already formed an opinion as to the guilt or innocence of the de- fendants, or were so opposed to the death penalty that they declared that they could not conscientiously eonvict a man of a crime which might result in his electrocution. Twice during the day the court addressed the talesmen as to their duty and urged upon them to consider carefully before answering his questions. A pathetic scene was enacted to- night as the prisoners were being tak- en to the jail. During the afternoon an Italian woman, with a shawl over her head and a baby in her arms, had been standing outside the court house in the rain. Just lore adjournment officers learned that she was the wife of Caruso and took her into the bulld- ing. As her husband was being led away to the jall the deputy sheriff to ‘whom he was handcuffed stopped long enough for the man and woman to em- brace. The prisoner was given a brief opportunity to look at the child, which ‘was born since he had been in custody and which he had seen only once or twice, and then only for a few minutes. ‘William D. Haywood came to Salem during the late afternoon, hoping to De permitted t6 attend.the. trial of fellow leadérs in the Industrial Work- ers of the World. He was advised ‘that he would not be admitted and did not at the court house. All spectators were barred today. A GENERAL STRIKE. Discharge of Lawrence Mill Operatives Makes More Troubl Lawrence, Mass., Oct. 1.—A general strike will ‘probably be called in the Lawrence textile mills unless the mill agents give the Industrial Workers of the World satisfactory reasons for the alleged discharge of certain operatives, according to members of the central committee of the organization in this city.. When the 24-hour “demonstra- tion™ strike against the imprisonment of Ettor and Glovanniti ended this morning about 2,000 of the 12,000 op- eratives who did not work yesterday wWere sent home. Some of them told the leaders of the Industrial Workers of the World that they had been dis- charged for violence committed dur- ing the strike. Othersgwere sent home because there was not enough work in some of the departments, but they were assured of employment tomorrow. Several small strikes occurred today when the foreign operatives learned of the discharge of some of their num- Der, but there was little of the violence that marked vesterday's “protest dem- onstration.” THREATS "MADE. g % Letters Received by District Attorney and City, Marshal. | _Salem Court House, Mass., Oct. 1— | Threats of violence if Joseph J.

Flinn “Goldbricked” Quay. Pressed by Senator Pomerene of Ohio, who demanded a specific answer, Mr. Flinn admitted having written an agreement in January, 1896, in which Senator Quay, J. O. Brown and Mr. Flinn proposed to divide up the fed- eral and local patronage of Pennsyl- vania. He declared he had “gold- bricked” Senator Quay: that he never had signed or intended to sign the agreement, and that he had written it Quay’s_opposi- tion to the republican candidate for only to allay Senator mayor of Pittsburg.
