Northern Pacific Interests Said
to Have United on q Re-
quest to Judges.
Now Speeding East by Special
Train in Order to Pre-
sent 1t.
Nature of the Request Will Not
Be Made Public Until Filed
in New York.

TACOMA, Wash, Nov. l4.-The spe.
cial train bearing RECEIVER Burleigh Of
the Northern Pacific and his party ar.
rived here during the night. The party
consisted of Judge Hanford, President
Rolston of the Farmers Loan and Trust
company, and Counsel H. B. Turner of
New York, ex-senator John @. Spooner
of Wisconsin, George r. Peck of Mil
waukee, counsel of the Adams party;
Silas w. Petit, counsel for the Brayton
Ives board of directors; w. A. Under
wood Of New York, counsel for Re-
ceiver Burleigh; W. D. Tyler, president
of the Washington and Columbia River
railroad. Receiver Burleigh left the
party here, going to Seattle, and the
special, after a half hours stop, started
east, it being the intention TO run
through to st. Paul in AZ hours.
Burleigh Will Likely BE One.
Judge Hanford will leave the train at
Pasco, going to Walla Walla. 1t was
learned from an authoritative source
that Receiver Burleigh is certain of
being IL Of the probable two receivers,
and that it is also probable that Judges
Gilbert and Hanford's court here will
be the court of primary jurisdiction.
Judge Hanford would not discuss these
details, but said: THE details of what
was done at Portland cannot for many
reasons be made public. However, |
can say this: These people, namely,
the representatives of the Adams COM
mittee, the Farmers Loan and Trust
company and the Northern Pacific
Railroad company have come out from
the East with their desires formulated
i'll a request which they intend TO pre-
sent to all the federal courts having
jurisdiction over the Northern Pacific
property. 1t is their intention to start
here and present this request to the
courts from here to the East.
VII Not BE Made Public Yet.
The nature of the request will not
be made public until it is finally pre-,
sented to the court at New York. These
gentlemen had a consultation with
Judge Gilbert and myself at Portland,
and presented the request. They are
now on their way east to present it tc
the other judges"

The injury is not necessarily serious,
but Senator Spooner will be compelled
to remain quiet for several days.

ArmenianS Refuse to Give Up
Turkish Prisoners Captured
at ZeitOun.

CoNsTANTINOPLE, Nov. IA. - The
Turkish minister for foreign affairs,
Tewfk Pasha, has replied to the notes
of the diplomatic representatives Of
Great Britain, Russia and France, as
surfing them, as he had previously az
sured the ambassadors of Germany,
Austria and Italy, that the Turkish
governments statement as to what
measures it intends to take for the sup
preston of the disorders in Asia Minor,
will be presented to the ambassadors
"without delay"
Tho New Ministry Tottering.
Another complication seems likely to
arise, which may give the sultan further
excuse for inaction. The Hall Rifat
ministry is said to be lettering and an
other cabinet change is likely to occur
at any til ).
The rumors concerning the possible
abdication of Abdul Hamed are still
current, but the statement that the inn
perial yacht is lying off the palace, with
steam up, intimating that TIE sultan is
preparing to seek safety III tight, Is q
weak fabrication, The imperial yacht
is sadly out of repair, and is laid up for
the winter.
Armenians Captured a Few Turks.
The most serious state Of affairs still
prevails at Zeitoun, where the Arme-
mans recently captured a battalion Of
Turkish troops, with their arms, N
munition and supplies, and afterwards
occupied the barracks and all tne
strategic positions in and about that
city. The government Is striving very
hard to prevail upon the ArmenlanS
there to lay down their arms, prOmls-
ing that they shall not be in any way
molested if they return to their homes
and surrender the Turkish soldiers they
hold prisoners, with their arms, etc.
The Have Had Promises Before,
But the Armenlans have so frequently
been the victims of similar promises
that it is not considered likely that they
will give up their prisoners or the posi-
tons they hold. In this case some des-
perate fighting may shortly take place,
| as a large force of Turkish regulars and
reserves are moving rapidly upon
ZeitOun,
The captured soldiers, it is known,
have been well treated by the Ar,
menians, much to the surprise of the
authorities here, who expected that they
would be killed.
VIII Probably Wait a Few Days.
1t is believed that the powers will not
take definite action against the porte
until all the naval squa-rons have as
I sembled in Turkish waters, which vii
be about the time that the British am
bassaoor to Turkey, Sir Philip Currie,
returns here after consulting with his
government as to the future action OF
GreatBritain.
In the meanwhile. the state of sus-
pense is decidedly wearying, and the
ambassadors themselves will be greatly
relieved when the hour for action upon
the part of Europe arrives. Nobody
doubts that this time is coming, it now
seems to be only a question of days.

Women Who Mold Opinion.

New York is so vast and wealthy a
community that it seems impossible to
satisfy the demand for talent of all sorts
The city itself does not appear to pro-
| duce enough for its own wants and so
draws from the outside world. There is
a constant stream of bright, intelligent
women flowing into the metropolis, and
yet there is always room for more. 1t is
hard to keep a record of all who come,
as most of them respond to engagements
of which the public knows nothing.
Of the many newcomers Miss Esther
Singleton makes a speciality of literary
and musical essays and novel entertain
ments, in which poetry, song and the
piano are components She has de-
lightful way of illustrating history,
drama and verse with musical compost
tions. Miss Louise Stockton is emphat-
icalIy great literary teacher and mas
ter She makes books living beings and
makes even the dullest realize the or
ganio relation between literature and
daily life. Miss Beaston is an apostle of
contemporaneous literature. She strives
to induce women to read carefully
American history, to understand what
is going on around them and to master
the great authorities in order to compre-
bend reourrent facts and questions.
Miss Martina tombstone is music per-
sonifed. She is master of its art and
science She can at glance determine
the strength and weakness of any stu
dent or amateur.
Miss Mary Proctor makes astronomy
and mathematics simple and wonder
fully fascinating Miss Jessie H. Ban
croft is the leader of physical culture,
or muscular Christianity. In this field
she finds the secret of health, beauty,
grace, endurance and the power to work
untiringly with either mind or body.
Miss Field and Miss Yates are both fine
oriental scholars Miss Stephens is an
authority on South American topics.
These and many others are power in

They are leading their sisters upward

Mrs. Kate Douglas Wiggin is the sub
ject of an entertaining article by Emma
B Kaufman in The Ladies' Home Jour
nal The writer says: 1t was in a crowd
ed car in Oh questionable quarter Of
San Francisco that | first met Mrs.
Wlggin. She got into the car and crowd
ed 1t more because there were half a
dozen small ragged children hanging
about her, and they were calling her
" Miss Kate, and she was smiling with
very blue eyes at one, and she was talk
ing with very red lips to another, and
her cheeks were very pink even then,
and her golden hair was all blown by
the wind
She had on little hat that was sur
rounded by wreath of red roses, and
she had on a pretty dress that fitted her
to perfection.
1t all struck me as being very incon-
gruous-this pretty, fashionable lady
who did not seem in the least to mind
all these ragged children olinging to her
and trampling on her dress, and the
children, who did not seem to be in the
least afraid of the lady's style or beauty.
The car WIS full of poor people, who
seemed to know her, too, for they smiled
at her and made room for her in a way
they had not done for me.
Presently 1 discovered that the con-
duotor was acquaintance, too for sud-
