In the capture of that important
town, the Servians took three pashas,
Including the commander-in-chief,
Zekkl Pasha, 50.000 men and 47 runs,
thus achieving the greatest Individual
success of the war.
Monastir was the second city of im
portance in European Turkey. It was
Turkey's stronghold in Macedonia and
by its downfall Macedonia passes com
pletely out of Turkish bands.
The Servians naturally will be elat
ed at this victory, which outshines
the capture of Salonlkl and must have
a great moral effect on the future
course of the war.
A private telegram received at Bel
grade reports that Scutari has sur
rendered. Another of the strange silences that
have been characteristic of this war
appears to have fallen over Constan
ttnople, from which only brief die-
patches have been received, telling
of the resumption of the Tchatalja
battle and that the Sultan has made
a fresh personal appeal to the Euro
pean sovereigns to intervene tor the
termination of the war. Quite as lit
tle may be expected to come of this
appeal as of the previous attempt at
mediation by the powers.

Warden Finley is now working on ma
ture. He is engaged In carefully go

tiilning to th propagation, protection
and killing of game of the state, re
codifying and revising. Glaring incon
sistencies that are held to be distinc
tive features of Oregon's present code
are. being eliminated tor the purpose
of giving hunters equal rights every

ing of ducks and deer are receiving
special attention.
Constantinople. Turkey will not
accept peace on the terms laid down
by the Balkan allies, according to an
official announcement and a great bat
tle between the Bulgarians and Turks
Is on all along the line of the Tchatal
Ja fortifications.
Constantinople, at the gates of
which the Bulgarians are knocking, Is
a city of sick, wounded and hungry
refugees. With the thousands of
wounded, in addition to cholera, pa
tients, all the hospitals are overtaxed.
Some relief has been afforded by the
action of the government in sending
many refugees to Asia Minor.-
PERKY GETS APPOINTMENT
Hawley at Last Moment Refuses Ida
ho Senatorshlp Himself
Boise. Judge R. I. Perky of BoIbs
was appointed United States senator
from Idaho by Governor James H,
Hawley, to fill a vacancy caused by
the death of Senator Weldon D. Hey-
burn.
Judge Perky Is a prominent demo
crat and was formerly state chairman
of that party. He was defeated for
national committeeman this year after
a bitter fight between the Hawley and
Nugent factions. Perky served as dis
trict judge for four years.
It was understood that Governor
Hawley would resign the governor
ship and that Lieutenant-Governor
Sweetser would appoint the retiring
governor to fill the vacancy.
In an unauthorized statement, Gov
ernor Hawley said he abandoned the
plan to have himself appointed be
cause the longer he considered the
act the more repulsive it became to
him, and he thought his fntent would
be misconstrued. .
