THE-3IORXING OREGOXIAN, THUR SD AT, MAY 6, 1909. PEOPLE OF HADJ1N ARE KILLED Mohammedans Besiege City and Burn Numerous Buildings. LENTFI BEY BRINGS HELP Drives Away Besiegers and Puts End to Massacres Situation Still Serious and Thousands I-'nce Starvation. HADJIK. Asiatic Turkey. May 6. Not withstanding the presence of troops here, the situation is desperate because of the lack of food and medical supplies. The troops arrived just in time as the besieg ers had succeeded In setting fire to a house on the edge of the city. The fire spread, but as the breeze was blowing away from the town, only five buildings were destroyed. A heavy rifle Are was kept up against those who tried to ex tinguish the flames. The Mohammedans outside the walls, who seemingly numbered many thou sands, pushed their attacks energetically Rgainst the inhabitants, killing and wounding many. They were so eager to get inside the city and plunder the place that tney did not observe the approach of Ieutfi Bey and his troops until they were close upon them, whereupon the Moham medans fled precipitately, carrying off all the cattle outside the city. The Christian clergy and the whole population welcomed their deliverers with great rejoicing. Colonel Leutfl visited the churches and schools and placed guards at various points. Since then there has been no Internal disorder and no danger from the Mohammedans, but the famine is increasing and starvation faces thousands. BANKS KEEP ABDUL'S FUNDS Refuse to Give Tltem Up on Demand of Young Turks. VIHNNA, May 6. (Special.) The Bank of England which holds the largest por tion of Abdul Hamid's wealth, refuses point blank to deliver up the ex-Sultan's cash at the demand of the Young Turks committee. French, German and Italians banks likewise refuse. Meanwhile the committee is trying every possible means to force Abdul Ham id into signing checks in their favor for all his money, but this procedure is already attracting the at tention of powers. It is well known that the Czar of Rus sia, Kings of Italy and Greece, and other monarchs have placed large sums in the Bank of England in order to secure de pots outside their own countries with a view of possible contingencies. That such urns should be escheated at a moment when misfortune against which it was Intended to provide should come, affords a very unfortunate precedent. ABDtL'S HOARDS .

The com mission which is taking an inventory of the property at the imperial palace at Yildlz has, it is stated, discovered bank notes to the value of 12,250.000 and a large quantity of jewelry.

OREGON DELEGATE IS HEARD Galvani Moves Peace Platform So- ciallsts Spoil Harmony. CHICAGO. May 6. (Special.) Social ism today rudely broke in upon the har mony which has hitherto prevailed at the Peace Congress. The resolutions com mittee had no sooner reported a platform. Carefully avoiding political or sectional questions, than A. M. Simons, a Socialist editor, ottered an amendment outlining Socialist beliefs, and accomplishments, and attributing war to "the exploitation of labor and the impoverishment of those who. toil," and declaring Socialism to be "the greatest peace force in the world." The original resolutions having been unanimously adopted by a viva voce vote. Secretary Melendy suggested a sub stitute for the Simons resolution less rad ically -worded, and Mr. Simons intimated a willingness to accept a change, but the Simons resolution was tabled by a ma jority of two to one. The most important work the adop tion of a series of resolutions, giving the programme of the advocates of uni versal peace, -was adopted at about 11 o'clock. The chairman of the commit tee. Judge Joseph B. Moore, of the Su preme Court of Michigan, reported the resolutions to the congress. The mo tion and speech in support of the reso lutions -were assigned to 'William H. Galvani, delegate from Oregon. Orchestra Hall, where the congress held all of its sessions, was -well tilled when Mr. Galvani took the floor to per form his part of the programme. He said in part: "In behalf of the great State of Ore gon, which it is my privilege to repre sent here at this congress of peace and good will to all mankind. I move the adoption of these resolutions. This is no time for speechmaklng; we have had enough of that- Let us, therefore, pro claim to the world, and in unmistakable terms. Just what we stand for. It is for tills purpose that, in obedience to the Governor of the State of Oregon. I journeyed 8000 miles to the great city of Chicago. Let it, however, be remem bered that the unanimous adoption of these resolutions is not all that is ex pected of the delegates to this con gress; the real work of each of us is to begin upon returning to our homes. AVe must not depend so much upon the organized power of either the church or the state, but rather strive to abolish intolerance among ourselves and enmity among the nations of the earth. It is only then when man will no longer slay his fellowman. no mat ter what pretext statesmen and dip lomatists may invent. The resolutions MY point the way towards that end, and I therefore hope that these resolutions will be carried without a dissenting vote." The resolutions were unanimously adopted. The efforts of the Socialists and union labor men to introduce reso lutions somewhat similar in character but different in spirit did not meet with success. The programme had been practically made up two weeks a pro and Mr. Galvani was the only one of the many lata comers who was given an opportunity to speak before the congress. The pa pers here today induced him to pose in group photographs with Wu Ting Fang, the German Ambassador and other high 'dignitaries. There is considerable re gret in the congress that Mr. Galvani was not heard in an extended address. One of the leading speakers today was R. A, Ballinger, Secretary of the Interior, who began by saying: "I am commissioned by the President of the United States to bear to you tidings of rood will and encouragement in fyour praiseworthy efforts for universal THUGS CAUGHT AFTER JOB Laborer Gives Alarm After He Has Been Robbed. Throttled by two thugs and robbed of $36 in money last night in the yards of the O. R. & N. near the East Side depot, A. C. Bannard, a farm laborer, quickly gave the alarm and attracted the atten tion of Patrolman Fones, who captured the robbers after a short search. They were taken to the City Jail, where they gave the names of Pat McDermott and J. A. Hunt. Both men are typical hobos and had been drinking heavily. 1 Bannard had been at work near Mil kaukie and intended to return last night to Montana, his home. The two thieves met him on the Burnside-street bridge and engaged him in conversation. After they had walked with him into the yards In Sullivan's Gulch they attacked him. One man threw him on the ground and stood upon him while the other pinioned his arms and went through his pockets. The money was not found on the prisoners, but Bannard's purse and knife were in McDermott's pocket. It is believed that they hid the money near the railroad tracks.
