The commission reported that the con

CANE A. Island of Crete. Oct. 7. A
decree announcing; the union of Crete
with Greece was published here this
evening. Events leading; up to the
climax followed each other throughout
the day with dramatic rapidity. The
town was bedecked, and early In the
morning people began flocking In from
all directions. There was much firing
of guns and revolvers, with plenty of
cheering, but perfect order prevailed.
Mussulmans mingled with the Aus
trian! freely and unmolested.
Tnlle With Tree Greece.
At I o'clock In the afternoon the
demonstrations In favor of the union
with Greece occurred on the military
review grounds. More than a hundred
thousand people, one of the largest
crowds ever seen here, gathered at this
place. Al the prominent revolutionary
leaders, each with his banner flying,
appeared and they were supported by
the heads of the different political
parties, the mayors of the towns, the
clergy and other Influential men in the
council of the island.
fSpeeches were made by various rep
resentatives, who declared that the
peaceful political revolution which they
had assembled to consummate was not
directed against the power, which had
been the island's benefactors, but solely
at proclaiming the Island's union with
the motherland. They called upon the'
government to act henceforth In the
nam of the free Kingdom of Greece.
They urged the people as a duty to go
respectfully and announce their de
cision to the representatives of the pow
ers, then they must call together an
assembly to conrtrm the people's de
cision by an official vote.
French yaul Down Flag Again.
Ten thousand men thereupon marched,
singing and shouting, to the various con
sulates, leaving at each of them a writ
ten copy of the resolutions adopted. They
then surged to the governor's palace and
lowered the flag of Crete, raising the
Greek flag In Its place. The flags on
all the public buildings were similarly
replaced by the flag of Greece. With
Incessant and wild cheering for the un
ion the great procession made Its way
to the fortress, where a Greek flag also
wss sent up to the top of a flagpole,
but the French troops Insisted upon the
lowering of It and unfurled the flag of
Crete and those of the four protecting
powers. This angered the populace and
for a time there was dnnger of dis
turbances, but ths leaders finally suc
ceeded In restoring quiet.
Council Joins With People.
A special Issue of the Government Jour
nal was distributed at S o'clock this
evening, containing the decree signed by
Ave councillors, who announce their com
pliance with the people's decision and di
rect all officials henceforth to conduct
the business of the country In the name
of the Hellenlo government.
Thousands of people from outlying dis
trict, most of them srmed. are still
pouring Into the town, filling the streets
and cheering the union. The govern
ment la taking special precautions to
preserve order, and all the public build
ings are atroogly guarded.
TVRKEY AMvS CONFERENCE
Protest Against Bulgaria's Action
and Kelles on Powers.
CONSTANTINOPLE. Oct. 1. The Coun
cil of Minister has decided to protest
against the annexation of the provinces
of Bosnia and Herxegovina by Austria
Hungary. Protest will be made through
the Austrian Embassy here.
In an interview today. Tewflk Pasha,
president of the Council of State and
Minister of Foreign Affaire, declared that
the government already had protested
against Bulgaria's declaration of Inde
pendence, and had proposed to ths signa
tories of the Trcatr of Berlin the calling
of a conference. This Turkey considered
to be the best course for the protection
of her Interests. The Minister added that
Great Britain. France and Russia disap
proved of the conduct of Bulgaria. In r-e-tilv
to a question, te said that Turkey
desired peace In the Interest of Internal
reform, and he counseled cairn ana meat
aron.
The reports of Turkish military prepa
rations sre denied here, and It Is said
ths government Is merly completing the
deficiencies In various army corps. Fol
lowing out thia programme, new guns
and ammunition are being sent to Adri-
anople and Salonika.
RUSSIA WANTS COMPENSATION
Only Condition of Conference Brit
ain Protector of Turkey.
PAR 13. Oct. 7. Obstacles in the way
of assembling the powers in an interna
tional conXerence to discuss the Balkan
situation are piling up. Great Britain's
ideas in this direction clash strongly with
those of Russia. M. Iswolsky, the Rusr
sian Minister of Foreign Affairs, this
afternoon made public an Interview in
which he declares the treaty of Berlin
was directed against Russia, and ne
serves notice that, if there is to be a re
v talon of this treaty, which Russia fa
vors, his government will demand com
pensation. Great Britain, on the contrary. Is as
suming the role of protector of the In
tegrity of Turkey and the status quo.
She opposes a general revision of the
treaty, which would amount virtually to
a scramble, of the powers tor compensa
tion at the expense of Turkey.
Instead of opening the entire question
of the Balkans Great Britain wants
Turkey to have compensation for any
losses she sustained. It was intimated In
Paris that Great Britain was already try
ing to arrange for the re-purchase of
Eastern Rumella.
Diplomats here see In the attitude of
Great Britain a masterly stroke to dis
place Germany In the councils of a re
generated Turkey.
It is anticipated that neither. Austria
Hungary, Bulgaria nor Greece would
enter the conference without the recoj
nltion of "falts accomplis."

bis country home near Glen Kiddle,
Pa, as the climax of a quarrel with
his wife, in which his wife's sister,
Mrs. Katherlne Beisel, had interfered.
Mrs. Belsel at first admitted that she
killed Erb, but later repudiated the
confeslson. Then District Attorney Mc
Dade ordered the arrest of Mrs. Erb.
Mrs. Belsel, who Is In Jail, said today
that she shot Erb because she believed
he Intended to kill ber. Thinking it
was only a question who struck first,
she declares she aimed the revolver
at her brother-in-law and lired. Six
shots were fired at Erb, four entering
his body and two striking the wall.

Stars of Opera at the
Heilig Theater.
BY JOSEPH M. QUENTIK.
PORTLAND surely turned Into a bit
of sunny Italy last night
It was at the Heilig Theater, when
these four operatic stars twinkled
and charmed a society audience that
crowded the house. Into enthusiastic
appreciation: Madame Marie Rappold,
soprano: Madame Josephine Jacoby.
contralto; Riccardo Martin, tenor, and
Giuseppe Campanari, baritone, from
the Metropolitan Opera-House, ivew
York City, the acompanlst being Ar
thur Rosensteln. The Immortal muslo
left by Verdi In his "Rigoletto" and
"II Trovatore held us captive, it was
good 'to hear It again.
The concert opened the new season
of high-class musical events, under the
auspices of Impressari Lois Steers
Wynn Coman. and the latter are to be
congratulated on the success achieved.
Never did a Portland audience go home
better satisfied. Indeed, so much
pleased was everybody that the encore
habit was incessant Of course the
artists pleased and they deserved a
hearty reception, but If this continuous
encore habit Is not tempered with more
discretion who knows but that Eastern
singers will begin to say to each other
before beginning their Western tour:
"There's a city In the West called
Portland. It's the encore city. People
want the worth of their money there,
all right:"
English was little used at the con
cert, but remembering the words of
the great master who said "Music has
no language it is sound and soul."
those of us who are not exactly Italian
linguists were able to appreciate the
musical treat The programme which
the artists sang was different. In
spots, from the one In the hands of
the audience. Instead of "The Barber
of Seville" music, we were treated to
a monologue from "Andrea Chenier,"
by Glorderro: Instead of the soprano
solo. "Chanson Provencale." by Del
Aequo, we heard an aria from Bizet's
"Carmen": and instead of the Thomas
gavotte from "Mignon." there was sub
stituted an aria from Meyerbeer's "Le
Prophete." But It was well.
All the singers are Americans except
Campanari. who was born In Vienna,
but he Insisted behind the scenes last
night: "My home? Put It down Brook
lyn. No; change that Say Hoboken."

Tomorrow, Friday, October 9, 1908
A great day for us We shall have
the grand opening of our new and
handsome store. It's now the best
equipped and lighted store in Port
land and we are going to make it
the BEST store you ever stepped
into. It's furnished throughout and
complete with the very latest
things in store fixtures, including
the 20th century dust-proof cloth
ing cabinets.
Mesdames Rappold and Jacoby are na
tives of New York. I did not have a
talk with Slgnor Martin, but know that
he is an American.
The "dean" of the company and about
whom most Interest centers Is un
doubtedly Campanari. who has .long
been hailed as a favorite concert and
operatic baritone. A cruel rumor pre
ceded him that he had shaved his fa
mous mustache, but it Isn't so. That
mustache was present last night and it
aulvered in the music from "Carmen
as of yore. Campanari is about the
best going in high-class baritone, not
so much for the immense volume of his
voice, but for Its splendid quality and
expression. When he finished the
monologue from "Andrea Chanier" and
for an encore began the celebrated
"Toreador"' song from "Carmen," I
wondered how many hundred times he
has sung it But it took like wild
fire, and he finished amid thunders of
pplause.
Madame Rappold has a fine, lyrlo so
prano voice trained to a nicety, and she
has a most Interesting habit when sub
duing her voice. In a closing phrase, tb
sink the tone to a tiny murmur, pro
ceeding as from a brook. She has a dig
nified, matronly appearance, and skill
fully uses her upper register. Her en
core was Del' Acqua's "Chanson Prov
encale." Mme. Jacoby has a dashing
appearance, and is of the Carmen type
dark hair, plump in figure, vivacious
In manner, and with pink m ner nair
and corsage, and dazzling In a span
gled gown. Her voice Is a luscious
one, with full tone, and lots of it. Af
ter the aria from "Le Prophete," she
sang for the encore the "Habenera,"
from "Carmen," and for the double en
core a "Birthday Song" by Cowen, the
latter being exquisitely sung in Eng
lish. Signor Martin is an heroic tenor
of satisfactory volume, tone and clar
ity. He Is blessed with a good phy
sique, and that helps In tone volume.
His voice doesn't seem very high set
but he takes a powerful high B-flat
above the staff. He is one of the best
tenors heard here for well, some time.
After the flower song from "Carmen,"
his encore was "La donne a Mobile,"
by Verdi.
The trio from "FauBt." a well-worn
number, "caught" the audience, and it
had to be repeated. But the triumph
time came In singing the music of the
last act from "II Trovatore." In the
Miserere" duet, Madame Rappold sang
In view of the audience and Martin
was behind the scenes. The effect was
thrilling, but would have been more so
had the tenor not hung to his last note
too long, as if he wasn't anxious to let
It go. A better effect was heard in
the duet "Home to Our Mountains,"
between the tenor and coatralto. The
audience fell In love with "II Trova
tore" so much so that it was with dif
ficulty they would part with the sing
ers. Mr. Rosensteln Is a very tapabla
accompanist.
