Petersen, manager of the Schwarzchlld & Sulzberger packing plant in South Portland, is somewhat at a loss to understand why the agita tion in the Council concerning the lo cation of the plant has broken out again. When the firm acquired the plant of the old Zimmerman packing company the franchise to permit the 'slaughter of cattle and hogs in the limits of the city was supposed to go with the purchase, according to Mr. Petersen: but when a question was raised, the case was taken up to the Supreme Court' for adjudication, and under Injunction proceedings the meat packing establishment has continued doing business. Recently discussion of the location of the new enterprise has been Indulged In by members of the City Council which was referred to by Mr. Petersen last night as follows: "Referring to the matter of opposi tion to our business here, we had be lieved that whatever question might arise a to our rights was to be de cided by the State Supreme Cou'l. We do not know where the present opposi tion was started nor why the matter i. hoinr hrouarht uo again. We are l conducting our plant In a perfectly sanitary manner and in accoraanco with Government regulations. We have had no complaints in fact, many residents of South Portland express approval of the present conduct of the plant. We are. therefore, at a loss to understand why this matter should be agitated when we believe all concerned should allow our case to remain under the injunction proceedings until the Supreme Court renders its decision. "Our company Is improving the plant In the way of new additions and in stallation of new machinery. The en couragement given us by the trade led us to believe that the people of Port land desire to welcome this Industry, for sales of our products are increas ing every day. The plant soon will be employing about 150 men and that alone. It strikes me. should be consid ered by opponents of our establish; ment" AGED MAN KILLS HIMSELF SUICIDE OF H. MILAICH SATUR DAY JUST MADE PUBLIC. Sick and Tired of Life, He Swallows Strychnine Leaves Wife and Family of Grown Children. H. Milaich, aged 60, who lived with his wife and four grown children, at East Thirty-fourth street an Hawthorne ave nue, committed suicide last Saturday by taking strychnine. Through some error the suicide was not made public at the time. The burial permit was taken out Wednesday, and even this was not brought to light until yesterday. The friends and relatives of the dead man at first threw out the idea of acci dental poisoning but an investigation made by Deputy Coroner Dunning clear ly brought out the fact that it was a suicide. The Milalchs own their home and are comfortably situated.- One of the sons John, Is an electrician, and the other Michael, is a clerk. The other two children are daughters. The elder Milaich had retired from active work for seeral years and be sides odd chores about the house had nothing to do. He had been complaining a great deal for two weeks prior to his suicide and suffered greatly from stomach trouble. Saturday morning he was heard to remark that he did not think it was worth while for him f) live out the short part of life which was still left to him. He gave no Intimation other than this that he contemplated his act Just a few moments before noon he was out In the stable attending to some chores. He entered the house by way of the cellar. Here the household had been troubled with moles which had burrowed under the walls. For their extermina tion some strychnine was procured and It was spread about this haunt of the In truders In great quantity. Seizing some of This deadly poison the old man swallowed it and went up the back stairway to his own room. He was found there dead within a few moments by his wife and one of his daughters. Dr. Wood and Dr. Pettit both of whom live nearby were called in but too late to be of any help. The Interment took place on Wednesday In Lone Fir Ceme tery.

FORCE SULTAN TO MOVE Young Turks May Compel Abandon ment of Old Palace and Extort , Surrender of Private For tune to Xctlon. CONSTANTINOPLE. Aug. 14.-Chrls-tians and Mahommedans joining in an Imposing ceremony In the name of Liberty was a spectacle witnessed in the fashionable suburbs of Pera. The Arme nian committee invited the young Turks to attend a memorial service In the Arme nian Church for Turkish martyrs in the cause of liberty. Enormous crowds at tended and at Its conclusion a procession marched through the town, headed by the archbishop and priests and a Turkish military band playing the Armenian na tional anthem, which had been suppressed for generations. When it Is remembered that the Arme nians have been the most persecuted of all Christian inhabitants of Turkey and have preserved their church organization Intact thrptigh centuries of persecution by the Mohammedans, the union of the two races in such a ceremony Is significant of the new spirit which has been awak ened in behalf of civil liberty and relig ious toleration. Force Sultan to Change Palaces. Not content with driving out all the of ficials identified with the absolute regime, the Young Turk committee Is said to be determined to Insist that the Sultan quit the Yildiz Kiosk completely, to put an end to the old traditions and prevent the pos sibility of a coup d'etat by the palace guards. Under this scheme the yildiz Kiosk and the surrounding gardens would be converted Into a public park and the Sultan would reside in the Dolmabagtche palace on the shores of the Bosphorus. According to the Teport, however, the project is not to be put In forqe imme diately. Broad Hint to Sultan. The reports that the "Young Turks had demanded that the Sultan sur render one-half of his private fortune to aid in the rehabilitation of the em pire is declared here to be quite un true. Many similar Irresponsible state ments are to be tound in the local press or are given out by members of the Yo.ung Turk committee. For in stance. It was announced recently that the Sultan had offored 100,000 toward the purchase of two cruisers, but this rumor Is still without any confirmation whatever. Abdul Hamid has made do nations for a variety of objects and t is believed that reports like the fore going are launched to act as a hint. An unpleasant impression was created here today owing to an alleged procla mation of the Young Turk committee that, Bhould the powers Intervene in Turkey's internal affairs, a rising would occur which would imperil the existence of for eigners: This proclamation, It Is sup posed. Is due to a report that Russia de clared the powers must Interfere If Tur key failed to crush the movement in Mace donia, but inquiry at the offices of the Young Turk committee elicited a denial of its authenticity. Give Up Millions in Plunder. Two of the palace officials under arrest, Mohamed Rlza and Zekkl Pasha, Minis ter of Military Schools, have been released on the understanding that they will re turn money and land alleged to have been acquired illegally during their tenure of office to the amount of $2,250,000. The report of an uprising at Eregll, Asia Minor, Is declared to be without foundation. WORKING CLASSES AROUSED Strikes for More Pay Follow Revo lution in Turkey. CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 14. The new era of freedom In Turkey brought on by promulgation of a constitution by the Sultan Is producing symptoms of agita. tion among the working classes. Strikes for increased pay have already broken out among the dock laborers, tramway men and employes of the tobacco fac tories. The workers, however, are not organized and the movement is not ex pected to become serious. Marshal Fuad Pasha, one of the most brilliant Turkish officers in the Russo Turkish War, who was exiled for being Identified with the Young Turk party In 1902, returned to Constantinople today and was given a most enthusiastic reception. An Armenian paper here gives an un confirmed report of the Intervention by the Ottoman troops at Ereglia, a town of Asia Minor, on the Black Sea. to pro tect the Armenian population from the attacks of fanatical Turks. Order was not restored, the paper says, until 150 Turks had been killed. MEHMED ALI SETTLES DOWN' Suspicion Izzet Bay Hides In His Home Unconfirmed. WASHINGTON, Aug. 14. Having suc ceeded in possessing himself of the Turkish legation, so far as it has busi ness relations with the State Department, taking over the seal of the legation and being formally recognized as charge d'affaires, Munjl Bey left Washington to day for New York, promising to return to this city next Saturday. Mehmed All Bey accepts his deposition philosophically and it is understood has settled down for a residence in Washing ton as a private individual. Nothing is known of the whereabouts of his fugitive father, Izzet Bey, and there is nothing to confirm the expressed suspicion of Munjl Bey. the new charge, that ' the old pasha is hidden in the house occupied by his son in this city. SETTLES CHURCH DISPUTE Bacon Compromizes Catholic Land Claims in Porto Rico. SAN JUAv, P. R., Aug. 14. After having satisfactorily settled the ques tion in dispute between the regular government and the Catholic Church in Puerto Rico, arising out of the con trol .of estates formerly owned by the Dominican and Franciscan orders. As sistant Secretary of State Robert Bacon sailed for New York Wednesday on the steamer San Juan. Under the agreement the Federal Government will obtain, subject to the approval of Congress, control of the San Domingo convent building and Its lands and the lands occupied, by .the infantry barracks. paying therefor $120,000. The Insular government wil receive, if the agreement is sanctioned v. .. -w- tn..,iBv sm o.rAaa thin market place, the San Francisco barracks; and the Insane asylum and the land sur rounding it. pajing' $180,000 for them In three Installments. The church. In addition to the money considerations, will obtain a chapel and 62 acres of land near San Juan. This disposes of the last of the church claims. The question has caused pro tracted litigation and discussion in six Legislatures. The insular courts have de cided some points In favor of both parties and appeals were taken to the United States Supreme Court. These appeals now will be withdrawn. The church land question In Porto Rico involved the right of the Roman Catholic Church to control various property valued at about $1,000,000 formerly owned by the Dominican and Franciscan orders. The estates were alienated by the action of the Spanish government in 1S38. but the Catholic Church alleged that the act was not properly carried into effect and sought to have them restored, alleging that the church was especially dependent since the United States came Into authority in the island and separated church and state. STOPS FISHERY QUARREL MODUS VIVEXDI ARRANGED ON NEWFOUNDLAND. Whole Dispute to Be Settled by The Hague Tribunal -Britain Is Censured for Yielding. LONDON. Aug. 14. The Foreign Of fice, in announcing tonight the conclu sion of a modus Vivendi regarding the Newfoundland fisheries, says: 'ui. maWv'i government and the Government of the United States unite In regarding the exchange of notes re cording this proposal and its acceptance as constituting in Itself a satisfactory agreement for the season of 1908, without .the necessity of a more formal agree ment." The conclusion of a modus vlvendi be tween Great Britain and the United States governing the Newfoundland fish eries and the rights of American fisher men means that friction in Newfound land waters will be avoided until a set tlement of the entire question, which is of long standing, is had before The Hague tribunal. The dispute arises from the contention of the Americans that they have the same fishing rights in Newfoundland waters possessed by Brit ish subjects, basing their claim on the fisheries treaty of 1S18. The Americans also claim the same rights as to Cana dian waters. DENOUNCES STRONG DRINK Catholic Abstinence Union Would Put Ban on Liquor Men. NEW HAVEN, Conn.. Aug. 14. Denun ciation of the liquor traffic, an appeal for sanctlflcatlon of Sunday and the exclu sion from membership in Catholic socie ties of those engaged in the liquor traffic were the striking features of the resolu tions adopted by the National convention of the Catholic Total Abstinence Union yesterday. The resolution declared that 'not in drunkenness and riotous living can any man make effective profession of the Catholic faith." The Union also declares its allegiance to the Catholic Church and adds: "With all ojur souls we welcome the encyclical of our holy father. Plus X, on modernism."

The Harriman roads are in the market for 6000 steel cars. No orders have been placed, but the! car equipment companies have'been notified that this amount represents the total of an early purchase by the Harriman lines, and for more than half the cars there have been filed specifica tions on which the equipment com panies may base their bids. Competi tion between the companies is said to be keen, for the orders, if filled, will be altogether the largest since the panic. The estimated cost of the 6000 steel cars ranges all the way from $6,000,000 to $7,000,000. It Is expected that the lower figure will prove near correct, for the reason that the competition be tween the car equipment companies may result in a cut price. SEINING SUIT IS SETTLED Owners of Fltzpatrlck Grounds Ac- cept $15,000 Offer. ASTORIA, Or.. Aug. 14. (Special.)

Xewcomers Get Equal Chance With Old Hands Xext Convention Meets at St. Joseph. BOSTON, Aug. 14. The adoption by the International Typographical Union con vention of the change in laws, abolishing substitute lists in all union offices, will have the effect. It is said, of opening all union offllces to all union men who can get a Job. This change wipes out the former law of priority, whereby the man oldest In service moved up as vacancies occurred. It is claimed that under the old law ability did not count so much as did length of service or the favor of the foreman. Under the new plan a new comer will stand on exactly the same basis as the man who has put in years of service, providing they are equal in ability. John Mitchell addressed the con vention briefly last night on matters per tinent to the work of the union.
