GREECE NEUTRAL
- TOWARD CRETE
Leaves Fate of Historic Isle to
Protecting Powers, She
Tells Turkey.
TROUBLE NOT ANTICIPATED
Neither Penles "or Admits Her De
sire for Annexation Could Have
Made Trouble Austria
Warns Off Turkey.
ATHENS. Aug. S- The Grwk govern
ment today handed th Turkish minister
a formal reply to the Porte's note, which
asked Greece to express lier disapproval
of the annexation acitation in Crete and
formally to declare that she had no am
bitions reeardinK the lpland.
The reply reaffirms Greece- Intention
of maintaining an attitude of neutrality
with regard to Crete, but It declares It
would be beyond her lawful capacity or
nowpr to make an announcement respect-
Inn the future of Crete, a matter resting
entirely with the protecting po-era.
In official circles it is considered that
the situation has materially Improved.
The reply U a lengthy document. It
Tirotesto formally against the complaints
contained In the Turkish note and gives
instano-s of Greece's constant endeavor
to maintain frank and friendly rela
tions with Turkey and to draw closer
the bonds uniting the two countries. It
recalls the enthusiasm with which the
Greek element In Turkey worked for the
triumph of the constitutional regime and
points out that had Oreeca cherished the
designs attributed to her. she would have
tried to profit by the trials against which
the new Turkish government has been
contending. Instead, the note declares,
Greece has done and still wishes to do
all In her power for the appeasement of
Turkey and for peace.
The. note repeats the assurance that
Greece, being In no way Implicated In
the annexationist movement in Crete,
will preserve the same correct attitude
that she baa In the past.

MAN KNEW HE WOULD KILL
Oak Creek Murder and Suielde
Proved Premeditated.
RtiSERUF.G. Or.. Aug. 3. (Special.)
Lying besida the body ol Hendrickson,
the man who murdered Ida Erickson at
Oak Creek Saturday and later ended his
own life, was found a letter, the contents
of which were made public today. This
would tend to show the crime was long
premeditated, and that the writer also in
tended to take his- own life. The letter
follows:
"Cousin Otto I will not live any .more,
I cannot do it because Ida has gone back
on me, and I am craxy. but I cannot help
it. I loved her too much, so that I can
not live any rnore. I had J150 that I
threw away: maybe they will find it. If
they do. you can buy a coffin for me,
but I don't care. You can dig a grave
and throw me in. Farewell."
After this was the writing of some other
person which rese.nfhled that of Ida
Krlokson. It said:
"He has said he would not live if he
could not believe In me and It is the
same with me. I gave him my word and
that settled it."
Neither of these notes, noth wrllten on
the same sheet of paper, was signed,
but they appear to have been written by
Hendrickson and Miss Erickson. Some
of the letters she had written to him
showed she had decided not to marry.

Haggard and faint with hunger

limbs a mass of scratches and cuts,
Ourrad gave no answer to Morgan's
hall other than a short mumbling, and
stood at bay like some wild animal fac
ing a hunter, half fuming as though
about to flee.
As Morgan asproached him and laid a
hand on Gurrad's arm, Gurrad raised his
free fist as though to strike his captor
and attempted to escape into the bushes.
He was no matoh for the logger, bow-
ever, and Morgan brought him to the
Orays Harbor Company's logging camp
and telepnoned to Kills Masten, of Aber
deen, who has been beading the search.

Gotham Court Sends to Hospital
Woman Who Failed In Test
Which Is Deemed Reliable.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9. Mrs. Harriet
Rebecca Berry's failure to hit the tip
of her nose with her index finger while
her eyes were closed convinced Magis
trate O'Connor that there were grounds
for believing her mentally unbalanced.
Accordingly he committed her to the
psychopathic ward at Bellevue Hospital
for five days.
Mrs. Berry appeared In the ' West
Court charged by Madeline Zanderweah,
who lived with her, with having at
tempted to choke her to death. Five
days in the hospital will determine
whether Mrs. Berry will be formally
committed to the insane asylum.
Mrs. Zanderweah declared that while
she was sleeping Mrs. Berry tried to
strangle her. Her screams, sne saia,
prevented Mrs. Berry from carrying out
her Intention.
"Mrs. Berry says Dr. Eliot, of Har
vard, stole her ideas of a new religion
from a book that she wrote entitled
" 'The Individual Development of
Man," " testified Mrs. Zanderweah. "She
has been acting strangely of late and I
fear she will do me serious Injury.
Dr. F. W. Robertson said he had been
engaged by members of the Berry fam
ily Beveral years ago to inquire into
her sanity and found she was suffering
from delusions. Dr. Hugh iiaaer, an
alienist, who says he has treated Mrs.
Berrv for 12 years, swore she was
given to strange beliefs and actions.
"I have not heard enough to convince
me that Mrs. Berry is dangerous or that
the DUblic would suffer if she were ai
lowed her freedom." said Magistrate
O'Connor. "Therefore, I am going to
ask a few questions myself."
"How old are?" was his first Interro
gation.
Forty-seven years, promptly repnea
Mrs. Berry.
"Why should your relatives wish you
to be placed In an asylum?"
"Because I own property and bank
accounts, and they wish to take charge
of my affairs and get my money.
"Now. Mrs. Berry, I will asK you to
close your eyes," said the magistrate..
She obeyed.
"Tako vour Index finger and strike it
on the point of your nose," said the
court.
Mrs. Berry Jabbed her eye with the
first attempt. She dented her chin with
effort number two. She became excited by
the test and In a rain of Jabs succeed
ed In striking every part of her face
except the objective point.
"Gentlemen." said the magistrate,
turning to the medical experts, "that
convinces me that she should be ex
amined. This is an old, reliable test
and she has failed."
Mrs. Berry was graduated from the
New York Hospital for Nurses In 1892
and from the Sloan Maternity Hospital
Training School. She is a widow.
BICYCLES STIR UP SALEM
To Ride on Walks or Not, That Is
Distressing Question.
SALEM. Or., Aug. 9. (Special.) The
time-honored bicycle question Is up for
settlement in Salem again. On one side
are the women's clubs and those citi
zens who do not ride wheels, who are
trying to Induce the Council to pass an
ordinance ruling whels off from all
sidewalks, and on the other side are the
bicycle riders and many business men
who feel that laboring people cannot
afford to pay 20 or 30 cents per day
car fare, and who want the present
ordinance enforced requiring the wheel
men to keep to one side of the walks
in the district, where they are allowed
to ride.
The Council has been considering a
measure greatly increasing the scope of
the territory in which bicycles shall
be taboo, and requiring riders to dis
mount every time they meet a pedes
trian. The bill Is so sweeping it is
believed to have little chance of pass
age. However, th riders are' aroused

CONCEDES
S
DEMANDS
Willing Now Antung-Mukden
Railroad Shall Be of
Standard Gauge.
HAS SOME DOUBTS, THOUGH
Distrusts Enterprise of Mikado
.Which She Fears Will Offer Mil
itary and Commercial Bar
rler Across Manchuria.
PEKIN. Aug. 9. The Associated
Press learns China has virtually con
ceded Japan's demand that the Antung
Mukden Railroad be of standard gauge
and is willing ot accept any reasonable
compromise. She is debarred, however,
from giving a treaty consent on account
of Japan's suspicious attitude in forcing
the gauge question, in claiming for the
Antung line advantages existing on
the South Manchurian Railroad, and in
refusing to negotiate the latter ques
tion. Japan insisted on postponing
consideration of the South Manchurian
question when the Antung-Mukden
Railroad was reconstructed.
China does not object to the expan
sion of the Antung-Mukden Railway
commercially, but she does oppose a
Japanese military strategic enterprise
ending in another foreign military and
commercial barrier across Manchuria.
.China, in her formal reply to Japan's
note announcing the latter's intention
of constructing the Antung-Mukden
Railroad, offered to waive her objection
to the road being made of standard
gauge, provided Japan waived her claim
to the policing of the railway as well as
her mining and other privileges In the
region. However, the note said, if
Japan were determined to go ahead
with the reconstruction of the road,
China was defenseless. '
REFCSES TO SUSPEND WORK
Japan Turns Deaf Ear to China's
Plea for Negotiation.
TOKIO, Aug. 9. China's reply to Ja
pan's recent note announcing immediate
commencement of work on the construc
tion of the Antung-Mukden railroad in
Manchuria, issued by the Foreign Of
fice today,- says that China is desirous
of 'continuing the negotiations and there
fore asks tliat work be suspended. Re
garding other matters pending, upon
which they have been unable to agree
heretofore, China says that she expects
an amicable settlement.
Japan's reply to tnls request was po
lite but firm. It was made plain that
the negotiations concerning the Antung
Mukden railroad had been closed forever,
except insofar as they related to that
section of the road between Mukden and
Che Chiang Tung, and that it would not
be necessary to suspend work to reach
an agreement upon that one atrip of ter
ritory. Regarding all other rnatte"rs, the
reply concludes, Japan will proceed with
pleasure.

BEACH COVERED WITH COD
Reports of Fish Driven In by
Whales Find Confirmation.
ABERDEEN, Wash Aug. 9. (Spe
cial.) Codfish to burn, is the report of
L. Q. Humbarger who returned this
morning from Pacific Beach. Mr. and
Mrs. Humbarger and other friends
drove from Pacfllc Beach , to Point
Elizabeth, a distance of nine miles, yes
terday, and confirm the reports of
great quantities of rock cod along the
north shore, said to have been rorcea
to shallow water by whales and caught
in the shoal water of the beach after
the receding tide.
Mr. Humbarger thinks the fish came
to their untimely end by chasing small
fry and getting Into the shallow water
in their eagerness to follow their prey.
Many of the cod were alive when the
Humbarger party drove along the
beach and the members of the party
spent a part of the time throwing the
struggling cod back Into the ocean.
The Indians have profited by the un
usual supply of cod and nearly every
family has been putting In double time
gathering the fish and drying them.
Long poles upon which the fish are
placed like so much washing are strung
out before every Indian domicile.
