THE PORTE ANTICIPATES TROUBLE
And Has Made Warlike Preparations at the
Dardanelles Meantime There Comes
News of Further Massacres and
Confirmation of Others.
Constantinople, Nov. 29. In splto of
tho assurances which tho Turkish min
ister for foreign affairs, Tcwflk Pasha,
gnvo the ambassadors of Great Britain,
Hussln, Austria and Italy on Wednesday
that the firman allowing tho passage
through tho Dardanelles of four oxtra
guard ships for tho uso of their embassies
would be immediately Issued by tho porte,
tho necessary documents havo not been
forthcoming. Consequently n sorlous con
dition of affairs, which was looked upon
as having been deflnltoly clonrod up, Is
now again perplexing tho nmbassadors
and threatening to causo tho adoption of
strong measures upon tho part of the
powers.
Tho answer of tho powors to tho request
of tho porto that they refrain from press
ing their demand for tho oxtra guard ships
was that they could seo no reason not to
support tho demands of their ambassadors
for more effcctlvo means of protecting tho
foreign residents of Constantinople in an
emergency, and in tho prosonco of this
unanimous reply It is considered In foreign
official circles that tho sultan has no alter
native but to yield, especially in viow of
tho oxtra gunboats conveyed through tho
Dardanelles by battleships of tho sultan.
Indeed, It seems highly probable that
tho ambassadors havo alrendy determined
not to wait boyond a cortnln tlmo for tho
finnans. That tho porto anticlpatos trou
blo is evident from tho fact that all tho
forts nbont tho straits aro now fully man
ned and supplied with ammunition, anil
havo been plnced In tho highest state of ef
ficiency compatiblo with tho circum
stances, Search lights aro kept In good
order, and aro worked nightly ovor tho
waters. For over a month pnst tho work
of strengthening tho fortifications in tills
vicinity, and particularly about tho Dar
danelles, has been In progress, and It Is
understood that tho system of submarlno
mines and torpedoes has been practically
completed so far as tho resources of tho
government will allow it.
is reported that tho oxtra gunboats of
tho powers havo commenced to arrive at
tho entrance to tho Dardanelles, and aro
now awaiting permission to pass tho
straits.
Tho anxiety caused by tho absence of di
rect nows from Syria increases. It Is re
ported, however, that largo numbers of
Turkish troops havo been drafted thoro
and a religious war seems imminent. Tho
soldiers aro said to bo bearing tho green
flag of Mohammodism Instead of tho regu
lar Turkish ling; denoting, It is declared,
that although tho authorities assert this
Clustering of fighting men Is for tho pur
poso of putting down tho insurrection of
tho Druses, a wholesale onslaught upon
the Chrisrlausof Syria may bo anticipated.
Jerusalem is said to bo crowded with Turk
ish troops, and Palestine is reported to bo
overrun with tho soldiers of tho sultan.
This is considered to bo ono of tho most
dangerous featuroa of tho present situa
tion. Anothor dispatch states tho whole of
Syria and Palostlno oru flooded with Turk
ish soldiers, and that In tiio country be
tween Jaffa and Jorusalem thcro aro 00,000
troops, all raised within tho last twenty
days,
Tho embassies hero havo learned that
in tho massacro at Marash ou Nov. 18 n
thousand porsons Were killed. Tho Chris
tian quarters of tho town wcro burned
from threo points. A lottor recolved hero
describing previous massacres says that
before it commencod tho town crier ordered
tho Christian shops to bo opened under a
penalty for refusal. It was then that tho
pillage and murdor began. Tho writer of
this lottor, who had boon a great philo
Turk adds that thoro was no sign of oltlier
a rising or of resistance on tho part of the
Christians.
Tho cmbassios hear from their consuls
that all possibility of rendering asslstnnco
to tho Sossounitos who wero tho victims
of tho outragos nt that point has boon
ended, and that tho Kurds are wiping
thorn out of oxlstonce, aud havo destroyed
all tho buildings whicli havo been orected
by tho expenditure of tho English rolief

Van country, whoro tho disturbances con

as futilo as a restraining Influence. Tho

Coal Dippers Too Much For the Sturdy
Iron Workers.
WAS A HARD, STUBBORN BATTLE,
Although tho Homo Team Showed Super
iority Over the Visitors at Many Points,
Notwithstanding tho Size and Wolght
in the Latter'B Favor.
Sixteen sturdy Iron workers from Bethle
hem camo to town yesterday to show Man
ager Fahcy's foot ball team by what right
they claimed tho foot ball championship of
Eastern Pennsylvania aud about six hundred
peoplo gathered at tho Trotting park to seo
them do It. Every man on tho visiting leaui
was tall enough, and appeared heavy and
strong enough to handle two men of tho
homo team, and that tho latter won tiio
gamo is no moro of a surprise to tho Bcthlc
hems than it was to tho homo people.
Tho gamo opened with Sliortiill kicking
the ball to the 25-yard linp of tiio visitors
and Oipt. Gray got the ball, but was downed
ou Bethlehem's 30-yard lino. Davis then
mado a gain of 10 yards around Shenandoah's
right, which was followed by another slight
gain, after which the visitors caught the
home team napping and by a neat trick scored
the first touchdown after play of 11 minutes.
Ou tliu lino up Bethlehem's quarterliack
passed the ball to tiio left halfback. Iu tho
mauoevuro tho latter purposely fumbled tho
ball, unobserved by the Shcnandoahs, who
struggled with him, while King piaked up
tho ball aud ran around tho right end. Tho
trick was not discovered until King hud a big
load and be scored the touchdown aftor a run
of 00 yards. Hart kicked the goal and made
tho score (I to 0 in favor of Hetbleliom.
Shenandoah gut the ball on tho kick oil' and
the team pushed their heavy antagonist about
at will. Shortall went 10 yards through the
centre with excellent assistance by Lavclle.
Gains of (i and 11 yards through the same
place were quickly added and Fuhcy made a
run of 15 yards around tho right. It was a
story of steady gains for Shenandoah until
the expiration of 13 minutes, when Shortall
made the touchdown aud kicked the goal,
leaving tho score II to (i,
Jiethlchoiu got tho ball on the kick off
through a fumblo by Wertz. At tills point j
Shortall was so badly choked by Casey that
lio was unconscious for almost two minutes.
This made the Shcnandoahs fight
with moro determination than over.
Gains of 7 yards by Fahey and 8 by It. Itoso
was followed by a 25 yard run around l!eth- j
lcbcm's left by It. Rose, another gain of 4
yards by Fahey, and gains in rapid succes
sion through Bethlehem's centre in which
Shortall and Frost figured until Fahey made
a run of 30 yards around Bethlehem's left.
He was downed just outside the goal and
fumbled tho ball, but McIIale dropped upon
it and scored tlie touchdown In C1 minutes.
Shortall failed to kick tlie goal and left the
seoro 10 to (I in favor of Shenandoah.
On tho kick oil' 1!. Itoso got tho ball and
mado 10 yards. During tlie struggle here
McIIale bad his lower lip badly split. He
was succeeded by Davis. Capt. Gray was
knocked out at tlie same time, but recovered
and played. Fahey got 30 yards around
the right, but after this tlie fight was so stub
born that Bethlehem got tho ball on 4 downs
and uo gains. Slight gaiiM for Bethlehem
wcro backed up to a 10 yard gain for Hickey,
but ou a fumblo Fahey got tho ball for Slien
auduah just as time for tbo first half was
called.
After an intermission of 5 minutes tho
teams lined up again for tho second half,,
which was to last 25 minutes. A. Itoso
fumbled the ball on tlie 30 yard line after the
kick off, but McCormick quickly recovertfd
it. It was then nip and tuck until finally
licthlohom got the ball on 4 downs aud no
gain. The licthlolicms had mado two changes
iu tho team, C. and Jl. Mack succeeding Hart
aud Doyle, the latter limping oil' wUh an
Injured leg. Tho fresh blood seemed to
greatly help tho visitors and they got tho ball
.dangerously close to tho Shenandoah goal,
when a bid fumblo was mado. Vort picked
up tho ball and mado a grand dash of 75
yards. Ho got tho ball within lluthlohem's
15 yard lino bofure ho was downed. Tho
Bothlchems saw the gamo was slipping
through their hands on a had blunder at a
critical point and claimed that ono of tho
Shenandoah guards had mado an oil' side
play. This was not allowed and the visitors
left the field amid groat shouts and cheers
over tho scoio of 10 to Oin &vor of Shenan
doah. Bethlehem's manager, M. J. Mollrido,
was tho umpire. J. W. Burke, of town, was
tho refereo and J. F. O'llaaru, of Mt. Oarmel,

night, to witness the production of "Tile
Lost Paradiso" by Miss Etliel Tuckeraud her
strong company, were well repaid. The
house was packed, standing roonr being nt u

play is tlie best in Miss Tucker's repertoire,
and deals with tho working classes and their
oppression by capitalists. Tlie thrilling
climax of the second act brought forth hearty
applause. In this act especially did tbo star
