LITTLE ACTIVITY
IN STOCK MARKET
NEW YORK, Oct. 13. There ap
peared to be some conflict ot purpose
between at least two strong parties
in speculation today, although their
operations tended to some mutual
advantage. In one case the support
of prices against the downward pres
sure, without any attempt to bring
about the advance, seemed to meet
the desired object. In the other case
there was an aggressive marking up
of prices; which seemed designed to
incite the public following in the
market. The lifting process was
wholly confined to groups of low
priced railroad and industrial stocks.
Bonds were irregular.

LONDON, Oct. 13 The climax of the suffragette campaign was
reached tonight when an enormous mob hemmed in parliament
and stopped traffic in all the streets leading to Westminster. For
more than three hours the crowd scuffled good naturedly with
the police, interfered with theatergoers, broke windows and dis-
organized things generally in the center of London. The heroine
of the day is Mrs. Travers Symons, formerly secretary to James
K. Hardie, a Boclalist-lndependent member of parliament; who
reached the door of the house of commons by strategy. The house
was solemnly debating a bill to prevent children from smoking
cigarettes, when the woman dashed past the door keeper to a posl-
tion in front of the speaker's chair, and shouted, "Leave off dls-
cussing about the children; talk about the women." ,
Three officials seized Mrs. Symons and carried her out bodily.
As a result of the coup an order was Issued that hereafter wo-
men shall not be admitted into the building on any pretext what-
ever in the future. It is estimated that fully 100,000 persons
were gathered around the parliament building at 7:30 this even-
ing. Three lines of police were drawn around three sides of the
building, the yard within the gates swarmed with police, and
200 guarded the terrace in the rear against assault by water,
which the women twice attempted. A small fleet ot police' boats"
also patroled the Thames. "' 5 , ' ' ; ,
All the mounted police in London and its suburbs were mobl-
lized at this center and loads of hay stacked in the streets for the .
'horses. The whole police force, together ' withv cavalry, infantry '
and marines numbering more than 5000, was kept busy restrain-
ing and pushing the struggling passes about Trafalgar square.
A delegation of thirteen suffragists, which approached the police
cordon, was formally refused admission to parliament and at
tempted a football rush, but the police chivalrously repulsed the
women with the least possible roughness. .The police were pelted
with vegetables and some stones in a few minor skirmishes which
occurred, but nobody was seriously hurt. Twenty-four suffra
gettes and twelve of the unemployed which helped the former
were placed under arrest. The suffragettes and unemployed have
kept practically the whole police force on duty continuously for
forty-eight hours. s ,

CHICAGO, Oct. 13. National Democratic Chairman Mack has
addressed a letter to the chairmen of all state central committees
in which he-charges Republican campaign managers with calling ,
upon friendly business interests to create a spread of the belief
that the election of William J, Bryan means business depression,
in order to frighten the public, into voting the Republican ticket.
Republican doctrines received unexpected publicity through
Democratic channels today when two van loads of campaign lit
erature were dumped in the mailing room at Democratic national
headquarters here. The literature was intended for the
Republican headquarters a block away, and was written in Bo
hemian, Lithuanian and Slavish. Before it was discovered that
the documents were appeals for the election of Taft, most ot the
literature was mailed to voters.

DETROIT, Oct: 13. Chicago crept
one game closer, to the world's base
ball championship to day by defeat
ing Detroit 3 to 0.
Chicago has now won three games
of the series compared with one an
nexed by Detroit, at Chicago yester
day. Eddy Summers of Detroit and
Mordecia Brown, the premier pitcher
of the , Chicago team, opposed each
other, and the latter had all the bet
ter of the argument, although Sum
mers pitched excellent ball in all but
one inning. ' In the third Summers
passed two 6n balls, some of which
seemed to iha'crowd to be very much
like strikes. Schulte and':. Chance
crossed the plate In safety in this in
ning. Chicago's next and final run
occurred in the ninth when Winter
took Summer's place in the box. With
two out, Evers singled to' left and
stole . second, 1 coming home on
Chance's single to , right. . Detroit
threatened to score only once. . In
the, fourth inning Brown .found; hlm-.
self in a, pretty bad bole, when singles
by O Leary . and - Crawford ...placed
those gentlemen respectively on sec
ond and. first bases with none out.
Captain. Chance lft flt bw and
Joe, Tinker came over -from' short
stop to confer with Brown. Cobb, De
troit's right fielder, came to bat and
bunted. The ball rolled steadily to
ward Brown, who rushed up to it
and without looking at first shot it on
a line to third Just in time to force
O'Leary out. Crawford ha'd taken
second on the play. Chicago's back
stop unexpectedly threw the ball
down to Tinker at second and De-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. Attorney-General Bonaparte has re-
. plied to a second letter from Josephus Daniels, chairman of the
, press bureau of the Democratic national committee at Chicago, In
which he complains that in the attorney-general's answer to his
first inquiry as to trust prosecutions he had not differentiated be-
tween prosecutions under the Sherman anti-trust law and those
under the general laws. .
Answering specifically, the attorney-general stated there had
been sixty-five proceedings in all under Republican and nine un-
der Democratic administrations; forty-six since Roosevelt ' was
made president in 1901, and nineteen in the preceding eleven
years.
The attorney-general states that five out of the nine proceedings
under Democratic rule were against labor organizations and their
leaders, and that under Republican rule there had been three such
proceedings out of sixty-five trust proceedings. .'".. .''. ' '

captains were out as early as 6
o'clock interviewing unregistered
citizens. Some men, especially those

ported, said they did not care to
