CITY IN GREAT EXCITEMENT
Nailm Pasha Reports Enemy's Re
pulse Cholera I Killing Thousands
of Ottoman 312 Turk Blown Up.
On the teeth of a we.it wlnd.comlna
dowu the valleys from the Tchatladja
furls la borne to the ear of those In
the plaKiie stricken city of Constanti
nople the sound of faraway ariiiiery
lire.
The housetops of the capital are
black with people straining every ear
to the far-olT booming. The city is
tense with excitement.
'This dispatch from Nazlm Pasha,
who Is commander at the front, was
IsHiied:
' "The battle which begun with a Bul
garian infantry attack continued until
an hour past sunset. The enemy, who
advanced particularly to the front ol
our right and center, was repulsed hy
out inrantry and artillery tire. Three
Bulgarian batteries were destroyed."
The sultan telegraphed hU con
gratulations to Nazlm Pasha, who re
plied Baying that bis majesty's mes
sage was received with capers by the
troops whose condition and morale
are -excellent.
The papers profess to have olflcinj
Inlojmation that the Turks won a
great victory. The left wing of tho
Bulgarians Is said to have been de
stroyed and the Bulgarian right wing
is represented to be in a difficult posi
tion. Eight thousand Bulgarians, the
papers say, have been captnied. Sev
eral guns and a quantity of munition;)
were taken.
The Turks are said to be marching
toward Muradll. The Turkish fleet co
operated with the land forces in re
polling the enemy. The battleships,
according to the current reports, fired
on the Bulgarians from both the Black
sea and the Sea of Marmora.
Persons who have arrived in the
capital report unexplained movements
of the Turkish troops behind the
Tchatladja lines. One person says
that several thousand.! have been
leaving the lines and several hundreds
of others are moving toward Constanti
nople. At a meeting of the ambassadors of
the powers It was decided to land men
from the warships to guard the ap
proaches to the Pareila district and
the embassies; The men later came
ashore in full campaigning kit, bring
ing a Maxim gun.
The official explanation of the meas
ure states that it is intended to check
the nervousness caused by the firing.
The German harbor defense ship
Loreley, which ig stained here, is
going to Haldar Pasha to guard the
station on the Anatolian railroad.
The villager:) from the naighL jrhoud
of the firing line, flockius to the up;-or
Bosphorui, are legion. They arc- n
panic and numbers are begging li,r
admission to the grounds of the am
bassadors' summer residences at
Therapia, Biyukdereand Yenikeui. The
Spanl.h ambassador has opened his
gardens at Diyukdere to them.
Cholera Knocks Out Thousands.
A dispatch from Constantinople says
:hat Ali Riza Pasha is hopelessly ill of
cholera at Hademketii. Thousands of
sick persons and hundreds of dead
bodies are lying on the platform of the
station there. Nothing is being done,
In fact, nothing can be done to fight
the epidemic.
The correspondent of the Lokal An
telger say3 that among the Bulgarian
people not only the failure to capture
Adrianople but the quite unjustifiable
postponement of a decision before Con
jtantlnople have produced a feeling of
depression. The correspondent says;
"On my way here (Roumania) I was
everywhere asked by anxious people
what was the cause of the absence of
further announcements of victories,
The simple explanation Is that the
Bulgarians sent their last mnn and
their last rifle to the front. Tho
mormons losses since the battle of
Kirk-Kl'i.-aeh have made a deep Im
pression upon the Bulgarian people.
The wounded are not sufficiently cared
Tor.
"It Is strange thnt in spite of tha
Bulgarian victories the feeling of dis
like Bgalnst the officers' corps is arls
Ins In the rank and file of King Ferdi
nand's army as well as among' the
people.
"The relationship between tile Serv
Im and the Bulgarian soldiers Is not
larmonioux. T.e officers of both
armies avoid one another. Consider
ing the position of the war it would
seem folly for the Turks to enter
peace negotiations at this Juncture,
for the le.t Bulgarian troops have
been decimated."
312 Turks Blown Up.
News was received in Athens of a
terrible death dealing explosion of a
powder magazine at Salonlca. Three
hundred and twelve Turks were killed,
some being blown to pieces. Four hun
dred and thirty Turks were wounded.
The Turk! h magazine was ne'ir the
barracks where the Turkish prisoners
of war were confined. The losse.t were
among tho;.e prisoners. It Is stated
that the explosion was an act of re
venge perpt rated by the bands of the
outlaws Sandansky and Mondjoff ah
the result or the Turks killing many
of their men.

CHANNEL CLEARED BY JULY
Paanma Canal Likely to Be Finished
Before 1915.
Practical completion of the Panama
canal by July 1, 19 W, Is assured, ac
cording to the annual report of Colonel
George W. Goetbals, chief engineer of
the Panama canal.
On that date, la opite of several
slides in Culehra cut during the last
year, the excavation in the cut will be
completed and by Aug. 1, 1913, the
spillway at datum dam will be fin
ished. The report intimates that the open
ing of the canal for business may be
advanced from .Ian. 1, litis, which was
the date predicted by Colonel Gocthals
some time ago.
Some time next summer or fall, no
exact date being specified, water may
be allowed to pass into the channel
and a vessel will pass from the At
lantic to the Pacific.
The vessel will not be the Oregon
nor any other famous ship, but will
be one of the many small water craft
in daily use by the canal builders and
probably the only passengers will be
Colonel George W. Gocthals and the
staff of American engineers, 'who, for
the past eight years, have been carry,
ing on the greatest engineering work
the world has ever seen.

EXTRA SESSION
MIDDLEJF APRIL
President-elect Announces Plan
For Tariff Revision
SPENDS VACATION IN BERMUDA
Wilson Says He Has Determined on
Special Session That Business Inter
ests May Know What to Expect.
President-elect Wilson before sail
ing on Saturday for a four weeka'
vacation in Bermuda announced that
he will call congress together in ex
traordinary session not later than
April 13 of next year to revise the
tariff.
In his statement he says that he has
determined upon this course not only
because he was elected on a platform
which declared for an immediate
downward revision of the tariff sched
ules, but also because he feels it is
due to the business interests of the
country that they should be relieved
of all uncertainty as to what the gen
eral purpose of the incoming adminis
tration Is.
While the platform adopted at Balti
more declared that the Democratic
party believes that any other tariff
than the one designed for revenue pur
poses is unconstitutional cognizance
was taken of the fact that a policy of
protection has bo ingrained itself into
the commercial interests of this coun
try that it would be unwise to attempt
anything more than a gradual elimina
tion of the duties considered ob
noxious. The demand that this gradu
al reduction be instituted immediately
was nevertheless unequivocal.
Beyond his bald ptatenient that he
will call an extraordinary session the
president-elect has made no comment
on the situation other than that so far
as he was concerned the pledges of his,
party and its platform would be car
ried out.
Governor Wilson sailed on the
Bermudian mid wHl stay until Dec. 15.
He will call upon the governor of Ber
muda and request him that he be per
mitted to spend his time there with
out recognition of his official status
either as governor of New Jersey or
as president-elect of the United States.
The governor was accompanied by
Mrs. Wilson and their two younger
daughters, the Misses Jessie and
Eleanor Wilson.
TAFT FIXES PANAMA RATES
Tolls Will Be Ssme as Those in Force
at Suez Canal.
A proclamation by President Taft
fixes the rates that foreign shipping
of the world shall pay for passage
through the Panama canal. The procla
mation, made under authority of the
canal act, passed by congress in
August, establishes a merchant vessel
rate of $1.20 per net ton of actual
carrying capacity, with a reduction of
40 per cent on ships in ballast.
The rates named In the proclamation
are practically the same as those which
will be in force at the Suez canal next
year.
American coastwise shipping was ex
empted from toll payment by con
gress. It was to this provision of the
act that Great Britain diplomatically
protesters, but no reference to the in
cident was made in the president's
proclamation.
SAVED CY CHILD'S COUGH
Father Awakened Just in Time to Es
cape From Blazing House.
The coughing of one of his children
probably saved the lives of Finley
Moore, his wife and live little ones
when an attempt was made to burn
the building at Zelienople, Pa.
According to Mr. Moore he was
awakened by hearing one of his chil
dren coughing. Getting out of bed he
went to the room occupied by his five
children and found it filled with
smoke. Mr. Moore says he carried
his children from the room and gave
the alarm. Firemen made the dis
covery that the carpets In every room
on the first floor had been saturated
with oil.

fiend must be taken into consideration.

and really caused the murder. The
Jury returned a verdict of not guilty
and requested the j'.Kl.'V' to make tho
defendant swear never to smoke an
other cigaret.

POLICE REPORT
CLUE T0MANIAC
Believed Slaysr ot Utile Boys
Will Bo Caught
That the self-styled homicidal ma
niac signing himself "Dennlsson"
whose postcards and letters written to
Chief of Police Gilson of Lackawanna,
N. Y., and to George Josephs, father of
one of his victims, whose decomposed
body was found In a cesspool in Lack
awanna, has more than a dozen mur
ders to his credit in now an almost es
tablished fact. He writes of having
killed "twelve besides" the Josephs
lad.
The body of younsj Josephs was
found in sixteen parts, the skull being
the last portion recovered. The flesh
had entirely disappeared from it.
It does not appear that the body had
been carved or chopped up, but that
it had become dismembered in the
twelve months it has lain in the slime
after the murderer had first assaulted
and then strangled the little lad on the
night of Oct. 12, 1911, when the boy
was last Been alive.
That a clue of importance has been
obtained which would lead to the ap
prehension of the murderer of Josephs
was not denied by Chief of Police
Gilson. He said that an accurate de
scription of the man suspected of mur
dering the lad had been obtained. How
accurate may be deduced from his
statement that "If the brute does not
commit suicide he can't get away." It
Is believed the man is now in Buffalo.

HALF AWAKE,
SH00TSJ50THER
Miss Myers Mistook Her Parent
For a Burglar
GIRL ON VERGE OF COLLAPSE
Greensburg (Pa.) Girl and W. R. Cuth
bert Released by Trenton (N. J.)
Police Shooting on Sleeping Car.
The Trenton (N. J.) police feel satis
fied that the shooting of .Mrs. Rappe
.Myers, wife of the proprietor of a
Greensburg (Pa.) hotel, by her daugh
ter, Gladys Elizabeth Myers, was an
accident. The shooting occurred on a
sleeping car of a Pennsylvania rail
road train while the train was near
Bristol, Pa., bound for New York.
.Miss Myers and W. R. Cuthhert,
sixty years old, of Lynchburg, Va.,
were detained . temporarily by the
Trenton police and later released.
It was thought at first that Cuth
bert was concerned in some way with
the shooting, as he was found with
Miss Myer3 at the side of the wound
ed woman a few seconds after the shot
was fired. Later he explained that ho
had been standing on the front plat
form of the car next in the rear and
had run in when he heard the shot.
Miss Myers, who Is twenty years old,
was on the way to New York to pur
chase a trousseau for her coining wed
ding to J. Ulair Dillard of Salem, Va.,
a druggist.
She had a casket of Jewels which
she was taking to New York to have
repaired and matched, and when she
heard her mother re-entering their sec
tion, after Mrs. Myers had gone for
a few minutes to the dressing room,
she took her revolver from -under her
pillow and fired, thinking a burglar
was after the gems. She was half
awake at the time.
"Miss Myers told me she dreamed a
burglar was pulling aside the curtain
of her berth," said Cuthbert, "and that
she reached under her pillow to get
the revolver and shot her mother. It
seems that Mrs. Myers was about to
enter the berth at the moment her
daughter dreamed she saw a burglar
In the aisle. Miss Myers says she was
startled aud fired before she was fully
awake."
Miss Myers Is on the verge of a
nervous collapse as a result of her
shocking experience. She constantly
sobs for her mother and the most
loving ministrations of her relatives
fall to comfort her In her grief and
solf-condemnatlon.
Only twenty years old, and striking
ly beautiful, the young girl has aged
in appearance ten years within the
past twenty-four hours. She Is on tho
verge of collapse anil cries out con
stantly in her remorse for having fired
the shot that ended her mother's life.
TRIPS ON SKULL AND BONES
Remains of Girl Missing Over Two
Years Found Under Leaves.
"With the rinding of a skull and tho
bones of a girl In underbrush near
Punxsutawney, Pa., the mystery sur
rounding the disappearance of Yemima
Hill, thirteen years old, from her home
in Rattle Hollow, June 25, 1910, has
been partly "cleared.
John Straltiss, passing through a
clump of woods, stumbled on some
thing buried beneath leaves. He un
covered a huniau skull and bones of
a human form.
Coroner Sayers gives it as his opin
ion that the little girl had been car
ried to the spot where her skeleton
was found and there attacked and
killed, her assailant covering the body
with leaves and brush.

Wonderful Sarah Bernhardt.
Sarah llernhardt often has said it Is
her enthusiasm and continued interest
in life mid work to which she ascribes
her youthful appearance. Now she
has a new enthusiasm the moving
pictures. For years she refused to
pose before the moving picture cam
era. Then she gave her consent and
acted "Camlllo'' before a long string
of film recently In Paris. She could
hardly restrain her eagerness to see
the finished pictures, and when they
were Bliown to her she insisted the
whole play be repeated several times.
Kdmond llostand nccompanled her to
tho exhibition, nnd when she had de
lightedly watched the films run off sev
eral times she turned to him with all
the enthusiasm of a chorus girl, say
ing, "Now, what next Is there for me
to do?"
Lincoln's Superb Oratory.
In an address by .Joseph II. Choate
on the occasion of his eightieth birth
day, Mr. Choate spoke thus of Mr. Lin
coln's celebrated speech in Cooper
Tnion, In lSCO: "With an awkward
form and most ungainly address, ha
Flood tliero with a lit 1 1 o trepidation,
not very prepossessing; but when ha
came to stienk It was as a flashlight.
Not only his whole personality and his
fr.cn lighted lip, but ho seemed to
lighten up tin' audience, nnd for ono
hour or an hour nnd a quarter he dis
cussed tho great questions of the day
nnd held the audience In tho hollow of
his band "
Even In Those Days.
Tho children stood In awe before
one of the museum mummies. At
last the elder whispered to her father,
"Why Is the old woman wrapped up
in bandages? Did alio die of an ac
cident?" ltefore he could reply the
younger girl snld, "Oh, yes! She
must have been run over by a motor
cnr. There's the number 'li. O.

Professional. Bomb Throwers.
Tho Chdiesr corps of trained bomb
throwers reminds us that our own
regiment of Grenadier guards takes
Its name from tho grenades or small
bombs which In early days they
hurled at tho enemy in an assault.
And this primitive duty is also com
memorated lu a flaming grenade em
broidered on wio collars of their
tunics. London Chronicle.
