Cork, Ireland, March 17. The re
cent defeat of a small army of con
stables following attendant lawless
ness in the hill regions of West Cork
nay yet cause tho government to send
troops into tho region.
The government ts reluctant to
dignify the disorders by sending a
disciplined force against the ma
rauders. Complaints by English cap
italists, intent on developing the
copper mines said to exist in that re
gion, have been coming in dally, and
government representatives' may be
forced to act.
The difficult; began several weeks
ago with the reopening of the Schull
& Sklbbereen railroad. This road is
a narrow gauge, and has been a dere
lict until recently, when English pro
moters undertook to develop the cop
per properties.
The advent of throngs of English
workmen Into tho locality offended
the inhabitants. Patrick Finn, one
of the prominent residents, gathered
tii kindred spirits about him, and at
tempted to drive the invaders out.
Finn took possession of remote
stations and began to hold up trains
Local inhabitants v(ho patronize the
line are not disturbed, but passeng
ers from a distance, In many cases,
were annoyed.
The local authorities tried to stop
.the warfare, but were so greatly out-
numoerea tnat tney were terrmeu in
to" acquiescence. A posse of royal
Irish constabulary, disguised as pas
sengers, were set upon and beaten
away after a lively encounter.

Constantinople,. March 17. -A se
rious clash between Greek peasants
and Grecian troops', In which many
of the peasants were killed ana
wounded, occurred at Knrditn, ac
cording to censored messages mes
sages received from Athens today.
Tho fight was the result of the land

The peasants, who are Christians,
have demanded that the government
force tho big land owners, mostly
Turkish Mohammedans, to divide
their vast property holdings among
the peasants.
Tho details of tho fighting have
not been ascertained, as tho dis
patches are being' censored. It is
known, however, that reinforcements
have been rushed to Kardlta to the
aid of the troops already there, as It
is feared that the peasants will crush
out the soldiery.
Civil war is considered a near pos

li3rfcover the relations between
Turkey and Greece, previously
strained, have now reached a tension
almost to tho breaking point.
Reports of more fighting on tho

Chlcnco. March 17. An aged and
Infirm woman tried to dash herself
under the wheels of President Tnft's
auto hero today. She was rescued
by a daring policeman, who snatched
her from the path of tho moving ma
chlno and bore her to safety. Only
the fact that the machine was moving
rather slowly, prevented a tragedy
that would have mafred tho celebra
tion of St. Patrick's day, which Tuft
came here from Washington to at
tend. The woman, whose name has not
been made public, made two nttompts
to kill herself.' She broke through
the police lines shortly before tho
president's machine had halted. At
that time she was seized by sevoral
men and carried back to tho crowd.
Later, on Michigan avenue, she mado
her way through the lines, avoided
tho police, and threw herself prono
before th eoncomlng car in which tho
president was seated.
The sight of the woman in tho
path of the auto caused groat cxclto
ment in the throngs that lined the
avenue. For a time panic appeared
imminent, but danger to the presi
dent was averted by quick action cn
tho part of the pollco and secret sor
vice men.
The Juetdent was only one phase of
a strenuous day for tho president.
He alighted from hlsprivato car at
8 o'clock thiSmornIng. Ho was wel
comed by tho Irish Fellowship Club
and the Seventh reglmont, Illinois
National Guard, composed of Ire
land's sons.
Taft was escorted to the LaSallo
hotel, where he breakfasted. After
breakfast ho attended a reception nt
