Powers May Tell Austria
to Occupy Macedonia.
PARIS, Nov. 25. Information reaching
official quarters -leads to confidence that
Turkey's resistance' to the powers will
not go to the extent of military or naval
measures of defense. An official who
passed the Dardanelles during the last
few days said today that Turkey's few
available warships at the Golden Horn
were worthless hulks. Moreover, the offi
cial view is that the Sultan will not per
mit the firing of a shot which might pre
cipitate war. Turkish land operations,
said the official, are equally unlikely.
The island of Mitylenc has a garrison of
several hundred troops, but the French
officials say these were withdrawn to a
remote part of the Island when the
French landing occurred in 1901, owing to"
the Sultan's desire to avoid the possibil
ity of an armed conflict. The present
seizure of the Mltylepc custom-house is
exptcted to be executed with a. similar
absence of armed resistance.
The Temps this afternoon printed a dis
patch from Constantinople, .saying that
the palace officials were deeply agitated
by the firmness of the powers, leading to
indications that the negative response of
the Porte would be reconsidered.
feENDS GIFTS TO INVADERS
Sultan "Will Welcome Fleet on Ar
rival at Islands.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 25.-(Via So
1a, Bulgaria. Nov. 25.) Following the pre
cedent which he set when the Russian
floct wade a demonstration off the coast
of Iniada in 1903, the Sultan has charged
Vice-Admiral Husni Pasha, who left Con
stantinople November 23 on a special
steamer for the -Dardanelles, among other
duties, to welcome the international fleet
with presents of fruit, candies and cigar
ettes. The Ambassadors of the powers, at
a conference Just held, decided to pro
ceed with the naval demonstration, as
the best reply to the Porte's note.
There is" absolutely no sign among
the Mussulmans of Constantinople that
they are In the least way disturbed
concerning the question of the finan
cial control of Macedonia. The vast
majority are not aware that such a
question exists.
The aspect of the city is .perfectly
normal, and there appears to be no
chance of an anti-Christian movement
unless the word is given from high
quarters.
It is persistently reported, but not
yet confirmed, that the Grand Vizier,
Ferrld Pasha, has been dismissed and
replaced by Abldln Pasha, Governor
General of the Archipelago. As the
acceptance of the demands of the pow
ers require scapegoats, there is a dis
position In some quarters to credit the
report as being the precursor of the
abandonment by the Porte of Its pres
ent attitude.
AUSTRIA HAS GLOVES OFF.
AVill Aid In Work in Turkey as Long
as Unanimous.
VIENNA, Nov. 25. Austria will continue
to take part in the international action
against Turkey, so long as the powers
act unanimously. But if any power de
sires to withdraw, and does withdraw,
Austria will also withdraw.
Austria is not moving troops toward the
southern frontier, despite reports to the
contrary. The statement that she con
templates a movement on Salonlca is cat
egorically denied. There is practically no
doubt that the note of Russia and of
Austria to the Balkan States warning
them not to interpret the naval demon
stration as a good opportunity to harass
Turkey will have the desired effect. War
ships will not be sent to Salonlca.
DANGER OF EUROPEAN WAR
If Austria Invades Turkey, Sultan
Would Offer Resistance.
LONDON, Nov. 26. (Special.) The
Evening Standard says, If the Sultan re
mains obdurate despite the naval demon
stration, the powers have decided to give
Austria a mandate to take such .military
steps as are necessary to force an accept
ance of the reforms. If this is done, the
Sultan would regard It as an act of war,
and -would order the Turkish army to re
sted This result would bring about the
long-expected war between Europe and
Turkey.
IS NO GERMAN -INFLUENCE
Turkey Takes Her Stand Because
Sultan Is Angry. .
BERLIN, Nov. 25. The Foreign Office
emphatically denies that Turkey' atti
tude is due to German influences. So far
from this being true, it is said that the
Sultan is actually angry at Germany be
cause the Foreign Office has repeatedly
advised him to accept the powers' de
mands. Warning to Small Nations.
PARIS. Nov. 25. It' was Vnrno.l at
the Foreign Office today that Austria
and Russia, In behalf of the powers,
have addressed a strong note to Bul
garia, Servia and Greece, warning
them that the powers' naval demon
stration against Turkey should not be
made a pretext for revolutionary move
ments on the part of these countries
against Turkey. '
It is now definitely determined that the
objective of the demonstration will -be the
Island of MttyleneL where the customs will
be seized, but the International .fleet will
not act within 24 hours, and probably
within 4S hours.
In the mcuntime the Porte and Am
bassadors continue their discussion,
with some prospect that Turkey -will
yield before the fleet acts.
Why Germany Stayed Out.
LONDON. No. 25. (Special.) A dis
patch to the Times from Berlin says no
significance should be attached to the
fact ihat Germany did not send a warship
to participate in the demonstration
against Turkey. The5 German govern
ment. It Is staud. fully expected the Sul
tan to yield without coercive measures
being exercised, &nC. this Is why it sent
nj warships to take part In the demon
stration. Fleet Sails From Piraeus.
ATHENS, Nov. X. The international
fleet assembled at Piraeus for the purpose
of making a naval dcen&tratk)B -.against
Turkey in support of the demands of the
'powers for financial control of Macedonia,

British and French torpedoboats were
left behind to keep up communication with
the fleet.

fact is that under the present conditions
the government is embarrassed by the
paucity of material to fill responsible

dering the thanks of the country to Count
Wltte for his services at Portsmouthand

FAVORS POLISH 'aUTONOJIT
Zcmstvo Congress Adopts Resolution
Against Violent Opposition.
MOSCOW, Nov. 25. Late tonight, Af
ter two days devoted to a continuous
discussion of the Polish question, the
resolution proposed by the. committee
Indorsing the stapd of the previous
congress for autonomy, but favoring
reference of the -whole question to the
National Assembly for settlement, -was
adopted unchanged by the Zemstvo
congress.
In the debate preceding its adop
tion a representative from Georgia, in
a violent speech demandedautonomy
for the Kingdom of Georgia and other
Russian provinces. The pan-SIavIsts
emphasized this . as an argument
against beginning the disintegration of
the empire with autonomy for Poland.
M. Mertzlbasheff, of Kazan, said the
Polish delegation declared that auto
nomy did not mean separation, but jtt
asked:
"Where Is the guarantee for this;
Let the Russian nation not forget that
the Polish eagle once floated over Mos
cow and that Russians swore al
legiance to the Polish king," he said.
M. Guchkoff, speaking on behalf of
Count Wltte, supported the proposal
to remove martial law and said that
the government was ready to do this
as soon as It was possible, but It op
posed autonomy because, he said, it
would leave the Lithuanian. Teuton
and other nationalities at the mercy
of fhe Poles. The speaker, however,
accepted the proposition to postpone
the question of autonomy until the
National Assembly meets.

HITCHC0CKT0 RESIGN?
Rumor That Western Congressmen
Have Got His Scalp.
WASHINGTON, Ncv. 25.-SpccIal.)-Tho
fact leaked out tonight from a responsible
source that at a recent Cabinet meeting
Ethan Allen Hitchcock, Secretary of tho
-Interior, expressed a desire to "tender his
resignation July 1. The same authority
announces that Vespasian Warner, of Illi
nois, now Commissioner of Pensions, la to
succeed him.
It is said the proposed change In tho
Cabinet has been brought about by mem
bers of Congress from Western States,
who charge that Mr. Hitchcock, in opera
tions against land-grabbers, has permit
ted his personal feelings to enter Into the
prosecution. While this charge had been
often repeated. It Is said that the retire
ment of Mr. Hitchcock will be wholly duo
to the desire of the President to surround
himself with younger men.
AMEND IM3IIGRATION LAWS
Sargent's Plan for Keeping Out All
Undesirables.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 25SpecIal.)
Radlcal changes In the immigration laws
will be made next year, if the suggestions
of Commissioner-General Sargent are put
Into effect. vIr. Sargent Is anxious to
have limits placed on the number.of immi
grant., -and that persons who are either
too young or too 'old to support them
selves should not be permitted to disem
bark. This would not, however, apply to
those who can furnish guarantees that
they are on their way to relatives.
Mr, Sargent believes that by an ar
rangement with foreign governments the
useless traffltr-of deportation of immi
grants unfit to- land here could be stopped.
Before an immigrant is permitted to taKe
passage for America, he should undergo
an examination at the point of embark
ing, and, if found unqualified, should bo
restrained from making the Journey.
S
BONAPARTE WILL DECIDE.
Two Naval Boards Disagree on Size
of Battleships.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. Whether tho
President 'shall be requested to recommend
.to Congress the authorization of battle
ships displacing 18,000 Instead of 16,000 tons
rests with Secretary Bonaparte, who has
before him the conflicting reports of the
General Board of the Navy and the Board
of Construction.
The former, of which Admiral Dewey
is president consists of the Chief of the
Bureau of Navigation, the president of tho
Naval College, the chief Intelligence officer
and four other line officers.
The Board of Construction is composed
of the chiefs of the Bureaus of Steam
Engineering. Equipment. Ordnance and
Construction and Repair, and in the event
of a tie vote the chief of the Bureau -of
Navigation.
Great Britain having ordered the build
ing of a battleship displacing on trial
1S.CO0 tons, the Drcadnaught, as an ex
periment, the General Board is In favor
of the American Navy's following suit by
building three new battleships of 18,000
tons and by increasing the tonnage of
the two battleships authorized at the last
Congress, the South Carolina and Michi
gan, from 16.000 to IS, COO tons. In addi
tion, the General Board asks for three
scout cruisers, gunboats and additional
torpedoboats and destroyers.
The Board of Construction in its report
to the Secretary disapproves of the first
item of the General Board's programme,
the authorization for lS.60-ton battleships
or the increase of the tonnage of the two
battleships already authorizbed to that
figure. The Board la In favor of a homo
geneous building programme. It believes
the !S,i-ton ship Is atbest an experi
ment, as tonnage Increases but little the
fighting efficiency.
.On the ground that the lS,G$-ton battle
ship is, .all things considered, the more
formidable and effective man-of-war. the
Board urges that the battleships ' to b
authorized at this Congress be of this
type, and recommends that the South
Carolina and Michigan be built as author
ized of 16.000 trial displacement.
Because It believes battleships to bo
the paramount need of the Navy today,
and Is hot hopeful that Congress will
authorize a large building programme, the
committee on construction urges that the
Department's efforts be concentrated to
obtain three battleships of 16,000 tons, and
if possible three scout cruisers.
The Board Is In favor of waiving at
this "session of Congress the request for
additional torpedo craft and gunboats.

MILWAUKEE; Nov. 23. (Special.) The
answer of the Wisconsin Central Railroad !
in tne private car rebate case brought by
the Government against tho Pabst Brew

MARINE ROUTS A THIEF
Intruder Had Designs on Paymas
ter's Safe at the Navy-Yard.
VALLEJO. CaL, Nov. 21 (Special.) A
bold attempt was made to rob Uncle Sam
of 175.000 tonight on Marc Island. But for
the vigilance of a marine sentry named
Ewlng, It Is probable that the attempt
would have been successful. As Ewing
was patrolling his beat in the neighbor
hood of the. Administration building he
thought he noticed someone In tho office
of the paymaster of the yard, which Is
on the ground floor. He quickly made his
way to the office and entered.
As the soldier stepped Inside the
door he was "struck a stunning blow on
the head. The blow dazed him, but he
quickly turned and grappled with the man
he saw trying to dart out the door. For
several minutes the Intruder and the
plucky marine struggled. Finally the
guard was knocked to the floor, and the
would-be thief rushed from the building.
The marine followed as quickly as he
could, picking up his gun as he ran. He
caught sight of the fleeing figure of his
late opponent and fired at him, but evi
dently without success, as the man did not
stop, but continued running until lost to
view In the darkness. The shots aroused
the entire yard, and within a few minutes
armed marines were searching for the
stranger. Up to a late hour they found no
trace of him.
Had tho thief succeeded in opening tho
paymaster's safe, he would have secured
575.000. brought to the yard today to pay
oft the employes of Uncle Sam tomorrow.

Some people have the mistaken idea that
they can make their stomachs work by

stomach that way, but it would take so

stomach rest if it wants to and employ a
substitute to do Its work.

putting your food In .a glass Jar with one

The Many Phases of Catarrh.
Catarrh may appear In the household
in tho form of a slight cold or cough, an
attack; of la grippe, or even hay fever.
Peruna meets these Invasions squarely
and repulses the enemy before It gains
a foothold.
Therefore; Peruna Is a household rem
edy. Used at the correct time It often
obviates the necessity of continued doc
toring. Perhaps in no other way can the wisdom
of economy and foresight be so forcibly
expressed as in keeping on hand a bottle
of Peruna to protect the various members
of tho family againBt the encroachments
of catarrh.
We have on file thousands of testimo
nials from heads of families, located north
and south, east and west.
These letters praise Peruna for its effi
cient protection of the family against
catarrh.
