tjovernor fharlen K, Hughes, of New

The Hutches special ts scheduled to reach
Chicago ton'ght. where Mr. Hughes in
a speech will complete his tour of the
Middle West stales. Mr. Hughes said
hre in part:
Against Arbitrary Action.
"I have been asked why I vetoed the
Scent faro bill. I will tell you. 1 do not
believe in arbitrary legislative action. I
believe in compelling the discharge of
public obligations. In giving adequate
and impartial service at reasonable ratea
and a rigorous insistence on the perform
ance of public duty. But we have large
enterprises connected with our public
service whic h are of vital Importance to
the Interests of the people.
Our railroads are our arteries of com
merce, fpon thnlr ernclency all classes
In the community are dependent. We
want Improved facilities, new stations.
l.tter trackage and Increased car facili
ties. We want freights moved promptly.
We want passengerf service of the best.
Thousands of worklngmen are dependent
upon the efficiency of our railroad en
terprises. Its unreasonable curtailment
means loss, not only to commerce but to
labor, and the Impairment of the thou
aandfold activities of the community.
"We must Insist upon reasonable rates.
The legislature has the power to fir
reasonable rates, but it has no power to
attempt arbitrarily to reduce earnings
unless It knows what it Is about. We
provided machinery In New York so
that matters might be Investigated and
studied in advance of action, so that
what was fair to be done could be
ordered done. That was the reason for
my ofiicial conduct In the caaa specified."
AUSTRIA READY TO FIGHT
(Continued From First Pag.)
. Is still endeavoring to reach a settlement
without recourse to a meeting of the
signatories or the treaty of Berlin, fear
ing that it will be Impossible to limit the
scop of. the conference and establish the
la.-ta upon which she and Turkey are in
sisting. After the conference the two ministers
had a long talk with Sir Charles Har
ding, the permanent under-aecretary of
the Foreign Office and former Ambassa
dor to Russia, with whom they discuss
ed Far Eastern affairs and the Anglo
Russian convention. Sir Kdward and M.
Iswolskv will meet again tomorrow, when
King Bdward will receive the Russian
representative at Buckingham Palace and
later entertain him at dinner, and on
Monday the discussion between the two
ministers will be resumed at the foreign
t'ffl.-e.
The British Government is In receipt of
advices from Belgrade that the Servian
Government has taken the suggestion of
the powers and is doing its best to quiet
the radical element In the country, which
Is clamoring for war.
The situation in the Balkans has been
found to be a very delicate one to handle,
for Its ramifications have been far-reaching.
Sir lid ward Grey had a busy day
before the arrival of M. Iswolsky. the
Greek minister being among the earlier
rallers. He presented a proposal to
Great Britain. France. Italy and Russia
that the matter of the Cretan proclama
tion of union with Greece be considered
at the proposed international conference,
simultaneously with the questions of Bul
, garian Independence and the annexation
by Aastrla-Hungary of Bosnia and Herze
govina. In the reply to his proposal, how
ever, the Greek Government was notified
that until the legal status quo has been
restored In the island of Crete. Great
prliain cannot hold out any hope that
the Tetan aspirations will be granted.
The Italian Ambassador. Maniuis San
Cuillano. called on the British Foreign
P-cretarv. also, and conveyed assurances
that his government was fully in accord
witli Great Britain, and that there ought
to be no departure from the conditions
of the Berlin treaty without the knowl
edge and assent of the signatories, and
that a conference of the powers should
be called.
Still another Amhas.ta.lor. Count Wolff
Meiternlrh. representing Germany, was
among the visitors to the Foreign Office.
He assured Secretary Grey that his gov
ernment had no knowledge, previous to
the notification given to the other powers,
of the action of Bulgaria and America
and that as a power Germany was not
Interested- In the Balkans.
Germany's main desire, he said, was to
co-operate with the other powers with
a view to bringing about a friendly solu
tion of the question and maintaining
peace.
The feeliug is growing here that, as
Bassta and Great Britain hold the
same views concerning the actions of
Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria, the
way is clenr to a definition of the
Russian proposal, but. unless the Rus
sian Minister can show the, best of
reasons to the contrary. Great Britain
will insist that the conference be lim
ited to a consideration of accomplished
fa. ts.
In the meantime Turkey has been
ura-d to continue her prudent reserve.
so long as the movements against her
are confined to changes of the status
In regions already effectively occupied
by other powers, but not to tolerate
any further encroachments. The dis
patch of a British fleet from Malta to
the Aegean Sea was decided upon for
the purpose of encouraging Turkey to
adhere ti this policy and to show the
populations of other states, especially
Crete, that the powers do not view
favorably any movements against Tur
key at the present moment.
It Is believed In some of the capitals
of k.urope. however, that Russian am
bitions will not prevail here. Minister
Iswolsky has frankly said to the Brit
ish government that, when the crisis
arose, he wns informed of the inten
tions of Austria-Hungary, but that ha
was not a consenting party thereto.
Turks Boycott ForelgTiers.
CONSTANTINOPLE. Oct. 10 The

the public, on patriotic grounds, to pur
chase no Austrian. Bulgarian or uer
man products. Many would-be pur
chasers were persuaded not to buy of
Austrian shops-
NOT AGGRESSIVE, SAYS SERVIA
But Austria Warns Little Kingdom
to Keep Quiet.
BCDAPEST. Oct 10. Servia has re
plied to the Austro - Hungarian de
mand for an explanation of her pur
pose in summoning the reserves to the
colors by granting that this step has
no aggressive character.
Speaking at today's session of the
Austro-Hungarlan delegation. Foreign
Minister Von Aehrenthal expressed the
belief that he would be able to carry
through the annexation of Bosnia and
Heraegovina peacefully. He said that
already he was negotiating with some
of the powers with the view of smooth
ing out existing diflcultiea. Baron
Aehrenthals speech was conciliatory.
"Both commercially and politically."
the Foreign Minister said, "we have
friendly and benevolent feelings toward
Servla and theae the government is now
ready to translate into action."
Continuing, the Baron suggested that
Servia and Bulgaria be Invited to appoint
representatives on a European Danube
Commission and secure concessions fa
cilitating the passage of their vessels on
the Danube.
After declaring that the 9ervian gov
ernment had ensured Austria-Hungary
that Servia's conspicuous military meas
ures were not aggressive in character,
the Foreign Minister said that the further
proceeding of the Servian government
would be watched with the closest atten
tion. He declared, however, that the
Servian agitation in Bosnia and Herze
govina 'would not be allowed to continue.
In conclusion Baron von Aehrenthal said:
"I hope that the people of Servia will
come to realize their actual position and
adopt a more sensible attitude. We will
regiilate our attitude toward Servia in
accordance with Servia's attitude to
wards us. Russia can be assured that
her interests will be treated by us In an
absolutely friendly manner, provided she
adopt a proper line of conduct.
TURKEY RESERVES RIGHTS
Tells Austria She WlllsXot Give Vp
Annexed provinces.
CONSTANTINOPLE. Oct 10. Accord
ing to the best information obtainable
here. Turkey's reply to Austria-Hungary's
imperial proclamation annexing
Bosnia and Herzegovina was aa follows:
"The Ottoman government has weighed
with all the attention they deserve the
arguments set forth In the proclama
tion of Austria-Hungary. and as
In duty bound It cannot accept the views
of the Imperial and royal government
In fact, the administration of Bosnia, in
Its present form. Is based upon Article
2? of the Treaty of Berlin, aa well as the
convention of Constantinople of 1878.
which was Its sequel.
"The diplomatic accounts clearly define
the nature of Austria-Hungary occupa
tion and administration of the above
mentioned province and the maintenance
of the Ottoman sovereign right, and no
derogation to any of these acta can be
effected without the unanimous consent
of Turkey, the sovereigns of these coun
tries and the other high contracting pow
ers. The Ottoman government must,
therefore, of necessity, reserve all rights
which result in its favor. from the inter
national treaties, and must protest by
which we free ourselvus from these
bonds."

of the alarm from general headquarters
died out before it was taken up by every
bugler and trumpeter In camp, and In
response to the clarion notes of bugles
and blare of trumpets which tilled the
air came the rattle of accoutrements,
Bhouts and hoarse commands as com
pany after company turned out.
Within 15 minutes was heard the tramp
of long columns of Infantry, the thunder
of the cavalry and the rumble of the field
guns of the artillery hurrying up the
county road and storming across Atasca
dero Creek to head off en Imaginary
enemy coming from the north through
Paso Robles.
Colonel Mans, Colonel Blddle and Cap
