Naugle's daily lays his defeat for

We trust the Mail will not hold
Naugle responsible for the "moutb.

the Daily Journal. While it is
printed in the Voice Office we have
nothing whatever to do with its
management. Its editorial expires.

editor OF the Mail lies closer to its
editorial heart than the writer. As
tor the above implication toward
"a Hackney, it is wholly untrue.

not known until the day after the

yet it is an entire system by itself. 1t
is the Winfield, Texas & Gulf and

valued at 81, 040. 1t is operated by the
Missouri Pacific, and, when the tax

to search for this road and if possible
locate it.

Fears Are Expressed That They

Landing of More Troops

CoNsrANrINoPLE, Aug. 4. - Three
Turkish ironclads left the Dardanelles

CoNsrANr1NopLE, Aug. "A dispatch
from the Dardanelles late in the day an
nounces that the second naval division
of the Turkish fleet, consisting OF seven
warships, commanded by Hari Pasha,
has sailed for the island of Crete Fears
are expressed here that the departure OF
the Turkish naval division may lead to
a collision with the International fleet in
Cretan waters, in view Of the announce
ment of the foreign admirals that they
have decided to oppose by force the
landing of Turkish achievements in
the island of Crete.
PARIS, Aug. 4~.-According to a dis.
patch received here from CONSTANT.
nople a division of the Turkish fleet has
been ordered to sail for Canea, island OF
Crete.
If the statements contained in the
Constantinople dispatch alluded to are
correct, fresh trouble may be antici.
pated in the settlement Of the Greco
Turkish peace preliminaries. 1t has
been reported for some time that the
Turkish government was contemplating
landing additional Turkish troops in
Crete, and on Thursday last the ad.
mirals in command of the foreign fleets
in Cretan waters held a conference and
decided to oppose by force the landing
of any Turkish achievements in
Crete. They notified Ismail Bey, the
Turkish civil governor, of the decision
arrived at. But the Turkish governor
replied that he could not accept such a
decision, apparently taking the ground
that the porte would persist in its inten'
ton to reinforce the Turkish garrison in
Crete.

fellow applied to him for something to
eat and James promised him a square
meal on condition that he would work
for it afterward. The dinner was eaten
and the young man given a scythe and
shown a patch Of big weeds and told to
cut them down. Shortly afterwards the
doughty marshal SAW his protege sitting
on the sidewalk cody smoking a
cigarette, in a rank and file Of the un-
washed. He next went to the weed
patch and found that nary u weed had
been cut, nor was the scythe anywhere
in evidence. He concluded the fellow
had pawned the scythe for the cigarettes
and that the ''hoes" was on the marshal
Questioned in regard to the scythe the
tramp denied any knowledge of it. The
officer then run bis man into the cooler
and told him he could lie there without
anything to eat until he made up bis
mind to find that scythe and cut those
weeds. He remained in the cooler all
night. without supper or breakfast, and
until 10 a. M. to-day when the reporter
saw him going towards the weed patch,
in charge of the street comr. i~ssioner,
with the identical ecythe on his shoulder,
