EVBMy-0''iy0itipHILJAI)tELPHIA, TUESDAY, SEPTEM6EB 15, 191i!. ATTORNEY, A GREEK, SAYS U. S. SHOULD PROTEST TO TURKEY Friend of Consul Tsakonas Here Declares Abroga tion of Treaties, Concerns Safety of Americans. f ? Soterlos Nicholson, of Washington, t. C ft Greek attorney and student of In ternational law who Is vlsltlnir In t'lilla delpliln, today told how tho abrogation ct the treaties by Turkey was of vital concern to tho tfnlted States since by that action the safety of every foreign resident In that count! y wan threatened, Including thousnlidn of missionaries and other Americans who iunl their per manent homo there, Jfr. Nicholson wns ,il the oftlce of Aristotle Tsakonas, tho G:eek Consul heic. He Is a peisonnl friend of Consul Tiakoiias, and on his way to Now York topped off line to visit tho ofllcJnl. "I do not think," ho said, "that the ilgnlflcance of tho capitulations made years ago by Turkey and now nbrogatcd i generally appreciated. Under them foreign residents In Turkey have had tho right to be Judged by their own respec tive consulates exclusively; secondly, they have porcssed special civil privi leges such that In all questions of crimi nal procedure and In fact of general de portment, they have been liable solely to their own governments. Thus, no Turklth olllclnl has had tho light to enter Inlo the dwelling of a foreigner or arrest one, unlcrs equipped with a spc clal permit from tho consulata concerned. Thirdly, tho native government wai not allowed to levy professional taxes upon the foreign residents! and fourthly. It could not regulate tho amount of Its cuitoms duties without tho consent of the foreign powers. In general, tho bove privileges may bo regarded ns con- ttltuting oxtia terrltoilnl rights, and it b chiefly tho ones coining under the first to headings that will affect the status f the Amei leans living In Turkey. "First there Is tho legal aspect to be considered. As others have already polnt d out, It Is rather astonishing that trcat lei which havo constituted the very con dition of Turkey's existence ns a State are now abrogated without warning and without negotiation. Such a violation of mutual agreement i a very serious mat ter Inieed, but Turkey knows that now the European I'owers nri hardly pressed with their own troubles at home and hopes that they will be unable to resoit to effective measures In denouncing the Tlolatlon. "Foreign stntrsmen of the piccedlng fenerations had forced tho above con cessions from the Turkish Government hicauj. It was evident to them that under ordinary circumstances the said Govern ment could not guarantee security and freedom to their nationals. The country had simply not leached that stage in tho volution of political organization which would render it capable of supervising the affairs of the citizens of foiclgn coun tries. But with tho advent of tho new regime In 190S tho Young Turks have been continuously and insistently clamor ing for the abrogation of tho capitula tions, claiming that conditions had changed since freedom had been declared and Just government had been established, Nevertheless, the Powers lefuscd to con lint. "Facts justified their course; tho ArmO- P lon In Arabia, tho Insurrection in Al bania and the maladministration of af fairs in Macedonia, following Immediately after the grant'ng of tho constitution, proved that much had yet to be done in the Hro of political evolution. "In plain word", Turkish law and ad ministration Is not an effective guarantco of the safety of foreign lives and Inter ests, and has violated trcntles that In sured that safety. In which case, I think, that it I- tho duty of the United States, at present tho greatest neutral State, to declare to Turkoy that this fountr- realizes Its own responsibility ") Its own cltlzers as well as to those of tne European countries, and that It can not brook the unwarranted breaking off of treaties, and to bilng homo to the Ottoman Government that this Govern ment Is determined to make uso of nil necessnrj means to the end of securing Proper observance of the treaties by the Ottoman Government."

Gloom pervaded tho ship as she lay nt her dock at Ilaco street wharf. It was pieceptlblo In tho ofllccrs' quarters and in the forcastle. Old faithful Blsmark had gono to his doom and tears stood in the eyes of every member of the crew from Captain Sorronsen to tho cabin boy as they told of the merits of the animal. Captain Sorrensen will feel the loss most deeply. Blsmark was his dog, and he said as much as he loved his ship he would rather havo been transferred from nor to another than to havo lost the dog. Mrs. Sorrensen, who was attached to lllsmurk. Is away on a vacation and docs not know of his death. Captain Cor rensen said she would be inconsolable. ns tho animal had been her guardian when she was on board. On several oc casions Blsmark saved tho lives of mem bers of the crew by dragging them to safety when waves threatened to carry them ovorboard. Tho Catherine Cuneo ran Into a galo off capo Hatteras late Saturday o'sht while bound hero from Jnmalca with a cargo of fruit. Captain Sorrensen remalnel on the bridge. By his sldo stood ismark. When the waves began to sweep over the vessel and tear away nil moveables on decks. Captain Sorrensen ordered Blsmark back to the master's room. Reluctantly tho dog obeyed. But when an unusually heavy sea crashed over tho decks, the dog ns though fearing for his master's safety tried to dash up tho companion- way. It was caught in the maelstrom and carried into the muw of the angry sea. Tho vessel was stopped and a boat low ered, hut Blsmark had disappeared.

Carnegie Is wno on his way to America, It was said, and when he arrives the final plans for the production will be announced. raoji a stait cormbf-ondim. WASHINGTON. Sept. 15.-Statl sties pre pared In tho ofllce of tho Chief of En gineers, at the request of Senator Itans dell, of Louisiana, show that by October 1 almost 30,000 Government and contrac tors' employes engaged on river and har bor work will be laid off. NThe Delaware niver project will be affected greatly by the failure to pass the river and harbor bill. Senator Ransdcll, who has been making the fight of his life to got the bill passed, after studying the summary made by the Chief of Engineers from the reports of division and district engineers, said: . "At this time, with an awful European ,war ragng and with hundreds of thou sands of our own people thrown out of employment because of the lessened de. mand for articles of American produc tion, it becomes. In my Judgment, the Imperative duty of the nation to Increase tno effective force of our laborers and wage earners, instead of permitting it to be diminished. ,. "Another Important thought in connec- i.u., 1Wi wie European war Is that food products of all kinds have Increased in price, thereby enhancing the cost of living, and tho longer the war continues the higher will the price of food products In America become. Jtany who aro able to eke out a scanty subsistence on their wages In normal times will bo unable to do so with tho Increased trices of food, and wo nto liable to have a vast hordo of people In this country who are In actual need, not only for lack of work, but because the wages of men who are employed will not buy the necessary food at the Increased price. Tho shoo has begun to pinch In some places already, and It Is certain to be felt far more wide ly and much moro severely In the near futuic. "Under those circumstances wise states manship, not only In the national Gov ernment, In the States and municipalities, but In the various counties throughout the Union, would dictate that every kind of public work which is needed or seems to be warranted by the needs of the next decade should bo undertaken at once and vigorously pushed. The national Government should, by all means, carry on with renewed vigor all its public works, Btich as public bulldlrigs, the Ir rigation projects of the West, forest re serves, the rivers and harbors, etc. "According to tho estimates of the United States Engineer Corps, if the pending river and harbor bill had bo- como a law before the 30th of June, tho number of Government and contractors' employes engaged In that work on tho 1st of October would have been 4S,37. Iff tho bill should fall of passage by ucioDor i tne numDor of employes at work on that date will be only 19,138, a difference of 29,163. These figures give only a faint Idea of the loss to wage earners caused by the failure of the bill. It carries In round numbers $53,000,000. most of which would be expended In the next 12 months In payment for labor or the products of labor. "I estimate that fully 300,000 souls will bo deprived of their usual means of sup port If this bill should fall, and Just at this time it certainly would be heartless. as well as most unstatesmanlike, to per mit such a thing to occur."
