Not an Amioable Separation.

Chattanooga, Jan. 15.-Three persons were killed and one fatally shot in a family quarrel near Jonesboro today. After living together thirty years and rearing a family of seven, Joseph P. Do- yer and wife recently decided to part and divide the family possessions. Just be- fore entering upon the division one son, sympa athizing with the father, struck a partisan of the mother terrible blow, the latter retorting with two fatal pistol shots. Another supporter of the father rushed in and received mortal wound in the abdomen. Then the father hur- ried to the conflict pistol in hand. and fired at the son who had been doing the bombarding but the shot struck a daughter inflicting a wound from which she died. During the melee the father was twice wounded, probably fatally.

Maggie Anderson, a frail little girl, four
teen years old, is missing from her home.

have teen requested to look out for her.
Her mother made complaint to the police
last evening. and today she called on In

effort to find the girl be made. Maggie's
parents are much grleved over her dis
appearance, and are almost certain that
she is now the wife of an artilleryman
named James Bowles.
The frail little girl attended the Union
Mission. where she played the organ for
some months. There at the mission she
made the acquaintance of Bowles and sew
eral other soldiers, and last evening, so her
parents report, she started from home with
Bowles. Another soldier named DORIS and
a girl companion of Maggie were with
them, and when the companion learned
that il was the intention of Maggie and
Bowles to go to Baltimore and get married
she left them and retained TO Mrs. Ander-

TROUBLE IN THE, STAFF
Contest Between Doctors and Hospital
Board.
Controversy ever an Appointment at
the Columbia HOspitnl-Phy-
sicinns on Their Dignity.

AS the result of dissension in the manage
ment of Columbia Hospital, several men,
bers of the medical staff have resigned.
The trouble, as Star reporter was in
formed, arose over the Installation of
young physician in an important branch of
the hospital by the lay board. 1t was as
serted that this was done without consulta-
ton with the medical board. A new place
was created for the young physician, who
happened, by the way, to be the son OF
member CT the executive committee Of the
hospital. number of meetings were held,
but final action was delayed long time.
The medical board obtained the support, 1t
is stated, from some members OF the eX-
ecutive committee, and their contention wa s
upheld. and the young man was removed.
But those members who had fought valiant
ly for the son of their colleague had a chance
to strike back when 1t came time to nomt-
nate the members of the medical board for
the next year. One of the physicians who
had stood up for the rights of the medical
board was not renomiEa.ed, and it was
claimed that this was because Of his action
In the matter Of the appointment referred
to- Then followed the resignation Of one
of the oldest physicians connected with the
hospital. and, 1t is understood, number of
the other physicians will follow suit.
A reporter of The Star investigated the
matter somewhat, but both sides were reti-
cent. The hospital authorities were afraid
as one of them said, to stir the matter up
because it might have a bad effect upon
their appropriations IN Congress-. On the
other hand. the medical board maintained
a dignified silence It WAS not proper, enc
of them said. to discuss the matter through
the public press. Professional etiquette pre-
vented such a course. He strongly init
mated, however, that everything In the hos
pital had not been moving as serene as
! might he. Beyond that, however, he would
say nothing.

LONDON, January GA dispatch re-
ceived here from Osborne. Isle of Wight.
says that the queen and Princess Beatrice
passed a bad night. and that their health is
affected by the shock they experienced when
the news of the death of Prince Henry CT
Battenbers was made known to them.
The remains of the prince will be inferred
at Windsor. and the ceremonial to be fol-
lowed will be similar to that used at the
burial of tire remains of the Duke of Albany,
Queen VictOria's youngest son, who died in
1881.
At meeting of Americans today the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted and tele-
graphed to Queen Victoria, at Osborne

* aSSemblage of Americans 1t was
resolved to communicate to your most gra-
cious majesty that they join in the deep
sympathies of your majesty's subjects in

sympathy, which her majesty much appre-
ctateS."

the next year Austria attempted to ar
range with Russia for partition OF Tur-
key. History repeated itself. the Russians
being victorious and the Austrians being
defeated by the Turks. The Russians over
ran all the northern provinces, took all the
principal fortreSses and captured or de-
stroyed the Turkish fleet. year or so
later the Austrians again Joined the Rus
slams and captured Belgrade, but Europe
mad begun to frown upon Russian aggres-
sions and Russia deemed it advisable to
terminate the war, and treaty OF peace
was signed at Yassy in January, 1892, con-
firni!ng the treaty of Kainarji. The
Crinlea was restored to the Turks, and a
peaceful season interviewed until 1S,A,
when the Crimean war disturbed all Eu-
rope.
The Crimean War.
In 1874 Emperor Nicholas had proposed
with Great Britain division of Turkey,
which ne denominated the sick man. thus
coming international expression that is
in vogue TO this day. This proposition was
rejected. and in 1853 Nicholas began to
urge his claims for territory so forcibly
upon the Sultan that war was inevitable.
The other powers interviewed mediators,
but in vain.
War was declared in March 1854, and
lasted two years. France and England
were at first alone in their support of Tur-
key, but in 1885 Sardinia Joined the al
lance. The other powers remained neu-
trail throughout. the campaign. The Gear
Nicholas Died in March. 1876, and his son,
Alexander. continued the war.
In September the French made a success
ful assault upon SebastopOl, the main
stronghold of the Russians and the Rus
slams evacuated the city. thus ending the
conflict. which was one of the most dread
full that Europe has ever known.
In March, 1886, treaty of peace was
signed at Paris, by which Russia lost all she
had gained or attempted to gain. This
treaty contained an article prohibiting Rus
sfa from building arSenalS or having war
ships on the Black sea, but this was abro-
gated in 1871.
Latest War Against Turkey.
Russia declared war against Turkey again
in 1877. to enforce on the sultan the sugges-
tons of conference at Constantinople On
a subject somewhat similar to that which
has recently called attention to Turkish af-
fairs. the Russians were victorious, and
certain territorial concessions were made
by the congress of the powers at Berlin In
1873.
