FRIGHTFUL
SLAUGHTER
OFINNOCENTS
S TERRIBLE
Populace Beg Russia For
Protection From Out-rages-MassaGre
Horrible
ST. PETERSBURG, July 21. M.
Pohltnnoff, RnsHian consul at Tabriz,
today wired thi foreign office that the
populace is begging I""' 'u protect the
women and children from the outrages
of the shah's troops. While details of
tho recapture of the Persian city by j
Kachin Khan are larking here, messages
received indicate thai the carnage is
frightful. M. Pohitonoff wires that he
sought refuge in the villa of the con
sulnte a few miles outside the city last
night when tho bombardment by the
Shah '9 troops began. The shah's com
monder, fearing to anger Russia, placed
a cordon of Cossacks about the villa
and troops uro patrolling the mail from
the villa to the city.
Today's dispatches state that the was
sacro is as had as the nillage of the
Khiavana quarter when the revolution
ists were annihilated there lust week.
Pohitnnoff''s wire' states that women
and children have taken refuge behind
the villa walls and are imploring him
to ask his government to send Slid to
the-people of Tabriz. The slaughter of
the .fity itself is terrible. Khan has
placed no restrictions on the troops, who
are revenging themselves for the revers
es of yesterday.
King Edward sent a telegram to the
shall 'a government Novcral days ago de
manding that the slaughter cease, ami
it is likely that some concerted inter
ference by England, Kronen and Russia
to restore order in northern Persia and
Turkey will result.
ST. PETERSBURG, July 21. Offi
cial communications received hen to
day Mate that sharp fighling in i"
progress in Tabriz today.
Raehin Khan, the loader of the shah's
troops, who wan driven from the turbu
lent city yesterday, returned during the
night with heavy reinforcements and
recaptured the town. The revolution
ists were taken by surprise nnd many
were killed before I hey had time to
resist.
Both armies have mobilized at Ta
briz for the fight for control of mirth
iru Persia.
TEHERAN, July 21. Word received
hero today that Raehin Khan has re
captured Tabriz early this morning has
put a damper on the revolutionists, who
had prepared for a general uprising
hero in the event of the success of the
cause in northern Persia. More rein
forcements reached here today to be
used by the shah in "case of any dis
turbance. The 1000 iJnkhtinr horsemen
who were encamped on t he on t sk i rt s
of the town yesterday have been joined
by forces recruited from other Nomadic
tribes.
The shah's palace is being rapidly
transformed into an impregnable fort
ress. Agents of the shah are circular
ing petitions among the people urging t
the ruler to abrogate the constitution j
and take charge of tlu country, t.reat j
it n rain ann nussia an m it
join in the movement. It is represented
that the only hope for order in Persia
lies in despotism.

FAILS TO AGREE
No Dedsion-Case Brought
By Miss Elsie E. Eaton;
for Salary
- The suit brought by Miss Elsie E.
Eaton against J. A. Itothwell, late bank
er of llebrnu, Neb., and still later
president of the Realty Bond Syndi-
:atn of Oregon, to recover $100, alleged
to he due her as wages for her services
:is stenographer, was heard in Justice
i 'a mum's office yesterday afternoon be
fore a jury, which, after listening to
; he conflicting testimony, deliberated
for two hours and then agreed to dis
agree. The issue raised was, whether or not
Miss-Eaton was employed by J. A.-Both--well
in his private capacity or acting
Tor the company.
Plaintiff's Statement.
The plaintiff testified that from the
letter which induced her to come here
from Kansas, by stating "there was
employment for her," she understood
I lmt she was to work for Mr. Itothwell,
although the loiter did not mention him,
and was signed by J. N. Mitchell, for
whom she had previously done some
work. The check enclosed for trans
iort:itiou was signed by the defendant.
She further testified that when she
came here Mr. Itothwell arranged about
ner salary, and agreed to pay it, and
subsequently promised to do mo several
limes. V. 11. Stalker testified along the
iine linos. He staled that the stenog
rapher was sent for at Both well's in
stigation, and that he was familiar with
the contents of the letter, and gave his
personal draft to cover the expenses of
the trip.
Defendant's General Denial.
Defendant Bothwell entered a gener
al denial of mo! of the plaintiff's evi
deuce. He denied ever knowing of the
contents of tin letter sent Miss Kiitou.
As to subsequent arrangements wit h
the plaintiff, he had a very faulty mem
ory, and on erossexaininut ion he sol
loin answered directly, but usually by
I don't remember" or ' I don't think
Of one thing he was certain, what
ever he had promised he had only aete
in behalf of the company. The money
already advanced by him had been
charged up to the company. Any mon
ey now due was from the company and
not from him personally. Despite plen
tiful objections by attorneys on both
Hides, the various troubles of the eotu
pany had a pretty thorough airing. At
lorney E. E. Kelly represented the
plaintiff and W. I. Vawler the defend
ant. The case will be retried.

HELP DEFEAT
Other Powers to Assist
In Preserving Integrity
01 The Turkish Empire
ST. PETEHSBl'HU, July '21. M.
TuucUard, tho French ambassador to
Itussia, and Russian foreign Minister
Isvotsky today agreed, that France and
Russia will aid Turkey if the sultan is
unable to crush the Macedonian npris
ing. Other powers, tlfey say, will be
forced to join them in preserving the
integrity of tho Turkish empire.
This decision was reached today alt
er a long consultation at which official
dispatches from tho sceno of the revolt
were rend. The conference Was hold
at tho French embassy and wus shroud
ed iu the greutest secrecy. It was not
until today that the Uniled HresB was
authoritatively informed of tho decis
ion that had been made.
The official reports received here to
day that lull to the culifereuce, stuted
that the revolt which started a week
ago in eastern Macedonia because of
the failure of the sultan's troops to
arrive nt the oarracks on time, has
spread to all portions of. Macedonia.
The outrage yesterday on the caplure
of a military train has inflamed the
disnffeeled portion ol the Turkish uriny
and it is feared that the uprising will
become general, liate reports this aft
ernoon indicate that the sultan's troop.
nave joined in the revolt and the army
had been repulsed at every turn in tne
road.
The report that Frnnce hnd taken a
hand in the nft'air ereoted n great sen
sation iu diplomatic circles.
Just what attitude Euglnnd will take
is not known, but it is freely predicted
hem that England will be ready to join
Russia and Prance. There is talk of
the "triple alliance" that was supposed
to have been formed at Reval when
ar Nicholas and King Edward met,
I following Iho visit of President Fnl-
lieres of Prance to Lugltiud, and it is
predicted that England will join the
combination.

! SORROW FOR
l NAVAL HERO
i WIDESPREAD
Commander ot Russian
Navy in Battle With Jap
Fleet Grieve Over Defeat
ST. PETERSBURG, July 21. DU
patchea today from Badnauheim, Ger
many, say Admiral Rojeatvenswy died
of a broken heart as the reault of aorrow
and disgrace.
Preparationa are being made for a
demonstration in honor of the admiral
who had been much beloved since he
heroically pleaded guilty of being re
sponsible for the surrender of the Rue
sian fleet in the battle ot the Sea of
.lapnn, voluntarily facing the penalty
f death to save his officers,
Political conditions are such,, how
ever, that It is probable the funeral will
be unostentatious and without display.
The circumstances of the death of
llnjestvensky have touched the. heart
of the Russian people and sorrow la
widespread.
The papers recount , at length his
elf sacrifice when he assumed blame
tor tho loss of the Russian fleet. When
Ihe ships were surrendered Rojestven-
sky wan wounded and practically un-
onscious and could hnve made a strong
personal dofenso, if he had desired. Hia
loath sentence was commuted by the
czar, but hia honor he believed waa
lorover lost.
In the latter daya of hia life lie pined
ind sorrowed continually, and the ad-
vicou from the German town where he
found refuge say there ia no doubt that
his heart wna broken.
