THEe MOBNING- OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1905. TURKEY IS Promotion of Vali a Challenge to Powers, AMERICA HAY PROTEST Interest of Education at Beirut Will Prompt Step, BULGARIA STILL FEARS WAR People Along; "the Frontier Are Mov ing. Their Property FiRhtinj? in Macedonia Continues, "With. Victories About Even. CONSTANTINOPLE, Sept. 2L The un favorable comment aroused, by the ap pointment ofReshid Pasha, the former Vail of Beirut," to be Vail of Brusa, which 3s really a promotion, continues, "The ac tion of the Porte in this connection Is regarded here as a challenge to the rep resentatives of the powers, especially to the American Minister, who, it is thought, Is likely to protest and may possibly de mand Reshld Pasha's recall from Brusa In the Interests of the American educa tions establishment In that vilayet Reports from Beirut say the appoint ment of Halllri Pasha to be Vail of Beirut !has caused much disappointment- The in habitants expect that Nazrim Pasha, the Vail of Syria, who inspired confidence by his conduct when he became acting Vali after ReshlQ Pasha's removal, would be mado Vail. POWERS DISCOURAGE HER. Bulgaria Taken a. Leas Hopeful View of the Sitnation. SOFIA, Sept 21. The unfavorable replies o Austria and Russia to Bulgaria's last note, and the fact that none of the other great powers,have yet replied, coupled with the allegations that one of the powers Is encouraging the military party at the Ylldise Kiosk, tend to create a less hopeful feeling here. There is, however, no per ceptible change in the situation. Various reports are in circulation regarding nego tiations between Turkey and Bulgaria looking to a solution of the Macedonian difficulty. The Dnevnlk says Turkey has presented a note to Bulgaria asking for" the latter's assistance in reaching a peaceable solu tion. Bulgaria replied that Turkey must end the massacres, withdraw her frontier forces, guarantee peace and protection to the villagers desiring to return to their homes, amnesty to the political offenders, and Introduce such governmental reform as will pacify Macedonia and Adrianople. The Bulgarian reply concluded: "If the present situation continues, the Bulgaiian Government will be compelled to yield to public opinion and send an army to the frontier." It appears doubtful that the Govern ment has sent such an answer, but the statement published represents, in some degree, the Government's attitude. According to Information received at revolutionary headquarters frpm Monastir, 120 persons perished In the flames of their burning villages near Kastorla. More than 1200 bodies of women and children are said to be lying unburied In the fields and on the roadsides around that place. AMERICA URGED TO ACT. Strong: Pressure Is B'cln Brought to Bear on State Department. "WASHINGTON, Sept. 21. Communica tions have reached the State Department urging the Government to say or do some thing that will put a stop to the atrocities In Turkey. It is stated that this pressure does not emanate from the missionaries. Officials at the State Department are ret icent about the probability of the United States giving expression to the feeling with which the alleged atrocities in Tur key are viewed by the people of the United States, but they said that reports from Turkey show that the deeds dally perpetrated In sections of that country are of such a character as to shock civili zation and necessarily are of deep con cern to the United States. The State Department today received a cablegram from Minister Leishman 'at Constantinople, but nothing was given out regarding It except the Informal statement that It contained no alarming news and was partly concerned with rou tine business. Withdrawal of the American squadron at Beirut, it Is said, has not yet been determined upon, and no indication has been received from Oyster Bay as to the President's intentions In the matter. WAR IS STILL EXPECTED. Bulgarians Are Removing: Their Property From the Frontier. LONDON, Sept 22. A dispatch from the town of Guitchlevo, on the Turco-Bul-garlan frontier, to the Daily Mall, re , ports that great excitement prevails in the district because of a skirmish that oc curred between Turkish and Bulgarian troops Saturday on the mountain range which forms the border line. The general Impression is that war is only a question of a few days, and the people are remov ing their property from the frontier dis tricts to places of safety. The dispatch adds that Turkey is mass ing 40,000 troops in and around Palanka, 10 miles from the Bulgarian frontier, ugalfcst which force the Bulgarians Save only 4000 at Kostendll. The Turkish frontier officers, says a fllspatch to the Times from Kublntza, Bul garia, report that the Insurgents under General Zontcheff have been defeated with great slaughter near Melnlk and a great number of Bulgarians were massacred in the neighboring villages, several of which are burning.

Britain Orders Fleet to Be Ready. LONDON. Sept 21. Admiral Fisher has ordered that certain vaaain iiovin. ders at Portsmouth be kept in readiness tJ jju. iu ecu. u.t a iew. iiours notice. It Is not thought that this order has any con nection with the Balkan situation, but is simply a part of the admiral's scheme for improving the ships under his command. Many Turkish Officers Promoted. SALONICA, Sept 2L-k)rdera have been received from Constantinople to promote all sergeant-majors to the rank of sub lieutenants, owing to the scarcity of offi cers in view of the complete mobilization of the Turkish army.

Venezuelan Press Is Severe In Its Denunciation of Umpires. WILLEMSTAD. Sept 21. The steamer Maracaibo has just arrived from Vene zuela with a number of foreign notablll- TAMMANY'S CANDIDATE . . 9 COLOXEL GEORGE B. M'CLELLAX. Colonel George B. McClellan. -who has been agreed upon as Tammany's candi date for Mayor of Greater New York, is now serving h'is fourth consecutive term In Congress. He was president of New York's Board of Aldermen In 1803-04, end from 1SS9 to 1902 was Treasurer of the Brooklyn Bridge Corporation. He Is a graduate of Trlnceton of the class of 1SSG, and for a number of years worked as a reporter and writer on the New York newspapers. He waa born In Dresden, Saxony, in 1SG5, while his parents, the famous war General, and his wife were abroad on a visit. ties on board. They report that the Cara cas press Is fiercely attacking the for eign and mixed tribunals and the foreign umpires. Yesterday, It was Belgium. To day, It Is Mexico. Obeying, it is said, President Castro's orders, the papers hav ing learned that Senor Otero, who um pires the Mexican claims; Senor Ducct, the commissioners and Senor Guzman, the agent all of the Mexican tribunal and leading figures In Mexican society, will on Mexico's Independence day give a dinner and ball to friends in a house belonging to a citizen of the United States, printed virulent articles threaten ing to publish the names of 1G leaders of Caracas society who had accepted in vitations to be present as "anti-patriots" and as "guilty of an act of les patrle" In going- to a ball given by foreigners, "claming money from Venezuela." Besides this, letters were sent to the members of the Mexican commission, and a popular demonstration against the com missioner having been premeditated, the Mexioan commission withdrew the invi tations to the ball so as not to cause a conflict Some idea of the tone of the press against foreigners can be gathered from the following article in El Ccmbate of Caracas, which after criticizing all the umpires, said: "Yes, let them take our gold, but let them not celebrate at a social gathering the consummation t of their infamy. Let them feel our bank notes, but let not their speculators' hands encircle the flex ible waists of our queens of the drawing rooms. , "Let them drink champagne and drown themselves In the foam of liquor but let them not clink their cups with those of the victims whom they have come to sacrifice.' It is reported in Caracas that the El Naclonallsta, classed as the organ of General Fernandez, the Venezuelan Min ister, is the most bitter of all the papers in the campaign. The umpires have not been paid by Venezuela. PRIEST A TRUE WARRIOR SInKlc-Handed, He Attacks a Boat load of Americans in Philippines. MANILA. Sept. 21.

FEW WEEKS SHOULD SEE END Operations on the Columbia Will Xo Doubt Begin Early Xext Month Engineers' Show That Haste Has Been Made. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, Sept 21. A telegram was received by the Chief of Engineers today stating that the pumping machinery for the con verted dredge Grant has been received the Mare Island navy-yard, and will once be placed In position on the shl From this It Is Inferred that recent p: FOR MAYOR OF NEW YORK i : : dictions will be fulfilled and the Gran will be ready for operations oh the Co lumbia River early in October. Today's mnlls brought to the depart ment notification of criticism that has been passed upon the engineers for tak ing so long in equipping the Grant To show that Instead of delay the Grant has really been converted in a compara tively short time, the acting Chief of Engineers called attention to the prog ress of work on a number of sea- dredges now being built for use on the principal harbors of the coast " He said arrange ments were made for converting the transport Grant into a dredge about Feb ruary 1 and on September 1 the work was SS per cent completed. Two sea dredges to havo pumps the size of those supplied the Grant for use In New York harbor, which were author ized December 13, are not yet 10 per cent completed. There has been no actual work on a dredge for Lake Michigan au thorized March 18, while the Southwest Pass dredge, begun February 26, is only 15 per cent completed, and a dredge for the Mississippi River, contracted for Septem ber 1, 1901, is but 73 per cent completed. A dredge for Charleston, S. C, will be ready fo- action next month, but It was authorized December 22, 1900, nearly three years ago. In 'the case of these dredges the work Is all new. It was the suggestion of the board of engineers that much time might be saved on the-Colurrfbla River bar by converting the transport Grant into a sea dredge, and the facility, with which the work has been done shows the saving over the time that would have been required to have built an entire new dredge. TROOPER COMPLETES LOXG RIDE. Journey From Oklahoma to West Point Occnples Only 30 Days. NEWBURG. N. Y., Sept. 21. Trooper D. Davis, of the Eighth United States Cav alry, has reached West Point, being the first of a detachment of 12 troopers-who started from Oklahoma 39 days ago on a test ride of 2000 mjles.

Resolu tions were adbptcd condemning, in the most vigorous terms, the present Repub lican State Administration, and also de nouncing the Democratic party because Its recent state convention failed to denounce the use pf ,the military at Cripple Creek. The resolutions say: "We condemn the Republican State Ad ministration as corrupt, vacillating, in competent and infamous. As a crowning proof of Its infamy we point to the condi tions in Cripple Creeek, where the mlltfla has been farmed out like Hessians to the mine-owners Int aid of "a conspiracy to break a strike." The resolutions declare the troops were ordered to the district, where absolute quiet and peace existed, in defiance of all principles of law and Justice," and adds: "The only defiance and obstruction to the ordinary process of the courts of Tel ler County Is made by the mlltla and those responsible for its presence and con duct are therefore directly in insurrection against the government of the state of Colorado. "We therefore , demand the Immediate punishment of the rebels under the law and the impeachment of the Governor of the state as soon as possible."

The commit tee on credentials of the International Bridge and Structural Ironworkers con vention, It Is said tonight will report against the seating of Sam Parks, .the walking delegate, and the other represen tatives of the New York union when the convention meets tomorrow morning. The report against seating the suspended New York union will, it Is said, be signed by five of the seven men of the committee. Delegates Flaherty, of Pittsburg, and O'Brien of Pueblo, will bring in a mi nority report favoring the seating of Parks and the other seven delegates from New York. Parks and his followers will make a strong fight In the convention, but the outlook for success on their part is not of the brightest. Before the convention met in annual session here today, Sam Parks, of New York, said: "I have come here for the purpose of making the fight of mi life for labor, and I honestly believe It Is necessary to make such a fight It seems that some are fighting against the Aghts of labor Instead of for it. Tne delegates from Local Union No. 2, from New Y'ork City, are going into this convention. President Buchanan has no nower to susnend Local Union No. 2 and we will go Into this convention with out hindrance." President Buchanan was reticent in talk ing about the Parks delegates, when-asked about a possible fight In the convention, and said merely: "I donot believe we will need ttollca protection." President Buchanan called the conven tion to order at 10:30. and without attemnt- ing to address the delegates, introduced Mayor James A. Reed, who extended the city's welcome. When John Smith m officer of the Industrial Council of Kansas City, had finished his response on behalf of tne convention, Sam Parks jumped to his feet. He wanted to know if the con vention had been called as a eatherinsr of organized labor or as a public meeting.. "Without waiting for an answer he went on to denounce In a general way some of tnose present There were some In the hall, he said, not rightfully delegates to the convention, and reaueated that thev be removed. There were murmurs of dls- aDDroval throuehout the flnor nnri Presi dent Buchanan Interrupted the New Y'ork ucicBuic wiui uie siaiviueni mat ne was out of order. Several delegates attempted to attention of the chair, but President Bu chanan ordered the convention to proceed with the next order of business, the re ceipts of credentials of the the different unions. Anotner delegate then said: "How can this convention he oniipri tn order until credentials have been passed on to show who 13 entitled to sit here?" President Buchanan said: "The motion made is out of order. Th proper order of business Is the presenta tion of credentials, and no business' can be done until the credentials have heon passed upon." Parks soranjr to his feet aeain- "T nn prove of that ruling," he said, "and when they, are passed On you'll find a int nt. members of Kansas City No. 10 that will not be allowed in the hall." A member of No. 10 retorted: "ifn mv opinion that any man who carries nn International card Is all right to stay In. this convention. 1 1 hope that no member of Iso. JO win take to heart this Insult iust offered." Parks again arose and fairly roared, 'No one has more resneet tnr Knna City members of the organization thn t But you'll find when you get down to ex amining credentials that a number of per sons traveled all the way here from tciw York and expect to get into this meeting. i m neTe io neip oar tnem out, and there are a whole lot more of delegates who will be glad to disbar them." President Buchanan finally securpd nnior and all delegates presented their creden tials to the secretary. Then'PreKMont nn. chanan appointed as the credentials com mittee J.

Court today in the cases of military pris oners in confinement at Camp Golden had all the spectacular settings o military dis play. At the inorning session, Judge Seeds absolutely refused to listen r-any argu ment In the absence of the prisoners and an adjournment was takea until 2 P. M. Previous to that a heavy guard of troops was placed around the building containing the courtroom, and at 1:20 the four pris oners for whom writs had been Issued were brought In under guard. When court convened, Lieutenant Mc Clelland read a supplementary return to the writ of habeas corpus. In this he questioned tne nrst jurisdiction of the District Court ovor the military prisoners, saying that General Chase was In full authority by virtue of the executive or der of Governor Peabody and had abso lute authority In the situation by right which Governor Peabody gave him when he ordered the troops to the district. Attorney ilurphy was then recognized by the court and protested against the martial array of soldiers In the courtroom. The court answered that there wns nnt '.now nor would there be any undue mlll- uispmy. Attorney aiurphy made a motion tosnuash the supplementary writ and the military attorney signified that they were readv to nrsrne thn motion tn qua3h. Attorneys for the prisoners related me suDsianco oz their petition of this morning. Attorney, Murphy said the four prisoners held wcte citizens of the United States and were being Illegally detained without warrant He further stated that the duties of the militia were very limited, that there are certain lines beyond which If they go they trespass upon the law. "There Is," he said, "no law permitting the militia to subjugate their lawful au thority." Lieutenant McClelland, acting Advocate General, replied. He read from the Penn sylvania Supreme Court decisions in the case of Private Westcott, who shot and killed a striker and was acquitted of the charge, saying: "Our case rests practically on that Su preme Court decision." Attorney Murphy then addressed the court and cited the decision of the Su preme Court of Colorado that was handed down. against Governor Waite when he called troops to the City of Denver to oust the city officials. Tiio court then took a recess until tomorrow morning. The troops returned to Camp Goldfield with the prisoners. All Quiet at Cripple Creek. COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo.. Sept. 21.
