Believed That Turkey L. Preparing to
Ignore the Powers.
LONDON, May IA dispatch to The
Standard from Constantinople says: It
Is reported that orders have been sent
ont for the mobilization of the fifth
and sixth army corps reserves, sta
toned at Bagdad and in Syria, and for
xhe immediate dispatch of 80 battaions
to Konleh, from which point they will
be taken to Ismeed, in Asia Minor.
These preparations, which involve an
expense that Turkey is quite unable to
bear, cannot be required against
Greece, and they excite anxiety, as in
dicating that Turkey is preparing
either to confront more formidable
foe, or to place herself in such strong
position that she will be able to ignore
the powers and their plan Of media
ton.
Three staff officers have been sent to
the depots of the fourth army corps at
Erzeroum and Erzingen to report
whether there is sufficient supply Of
prms and equipments to mobilize the
Bsserves Of that corps.

LONDON, May l2.-Up to the present

n. Ralli, in the course of an inter-

quiescence Of Greece in the conditions
proposed by the powers was due to the
sbelief that they would not allow Tur-
key to retain an inch Of Greek terri

~opinion of European diplomats. who
also consider that Turkey should be
satisfied with moderate indemnity.

STILL DOING BUSINESS.

Rumor Of Suspension Of tho Spanish Bank
of Havana Not Correct.
HAVANA, May 12.-The Spanish bank
has not suspended. The report to that
effect grew out Of the suspension by
the Spanish Bank of the exchange of
paper bills for silver, which step was
brought about by order Of the govern
ment. AS a result crowds Of people
went to the bank to pay their taxes,
believing that scrip would not be re-
ceiyed in future on account Of the ex.
change Of paper for silver still being
done away with, and also to the ru-
NOR that paper money would be listed,
thus causing great losses. The bank,
however, continues open, and is doing
business as usual.

HORSES FIGHT A DUEL.
Thrilling Equine Combat Wit
messed at St. Louis, Mo.
Thoroughbred Stallion and Fleet-Footed
Roadster Engage In Sanguinary
Uncomfortable victor's Saw
age Conduct.

In vacant lot on Grand avenue, near
Montgomery street, says the St. Louis
Republic, terrible battle was fought
between a ferocious stallion and o
thoroughbred driving horse, in which
the stallion killed his antagonist. Both
animals were owned by Sam Goldstein,
collector for the St. Louis Vehicle Own
ers' association, and member of tho
Gentlemen's Driving club.
The horses were turned into the va
cant lot in the rear of Goldstein's resi-
dence to exercise. and for time got
along together amicably enough, but
the vicious disposition Of the stallion
soon began to manifest itself by the
brute's mad caperings about the lot.
A large crowd was attracted by Its
wild antics, but not even the horsemen.
Of whom there were several in the
crowd that collected, had the slightest
idea that the affair would take seri-
Gus turn.
After cavorting about in the most
ridiculous fashion. the animal ran

A FIGHT TO DEATH.

crazed. Such squealing and neighing
and paving was probably never before
witnessed even in an equine life and
death struggle.
The snap of teeth rs the combatants
lunged at each other could be heard
fully half block away, and as they
reared and plunged and paved and bit,
each foaming at the mouth and almost
frantic with pain, they looked picture
of warlike ferocity.
With bristling names, and tails raised
high above their backs, they kept up
the fight until, hard pressed, the driv-
ing horse turned and let fly with both
heels at it's mcrciless adversary. This
only spurred the stallion on to fiercer
efforts, and he wheeled and landed on
the ribs Of the other with stunning
force. An agonizing groan escaped the
victim, and it was apparent that the
driving horse was no match for the pow
erful stallion. Its strength was rap
idly failing, and the kick in the ribs had
almost winded it.
By this time Mr.. Goldstein was ON the
scene. He leaped over the fence and at
tempted to separate the combatants,
but without success. The stallion
seemed bent upon killing the smaller
horse, and kick after kick was landed
on the fast-failing buggy horse in spite
of the efforts of the owner to drive the
mad brute away.
The driving horse finally gave up the
| fight and made an effort to keep out OF
reach of the cruel heels of the stallion
but the latter followed up the advantage
1t had gained by the first severe blow on
it's antagonists ribs, and dealt several
hard kicks that almost finished the
smaller horse. When Goldstein at
tempted to beat off the stallion the brute
turned upon him and would have killed
him had he not run for his life. The ami
NAL used it's forefeet and teeth as wei
as its heels in an effort to end the eN
istence of the buggy horse, and even bi'
and struck out violently at Goldsteir
in an effort to lay him low for his inter
ference.
The stallion finally delivered kicl
that brought the driving horse to 1T
knees, and as though it knew the fata
work had been accomplished. the ami
nal turned from its murderous on
slaught and retreated to the far end o
the lot. The victim was SO badly in
iured that 1t was necessary to shoot.i
to put it out of its misery.
After the bullet had ended the vic
TINS life, the stallion cantered down t.
the end of the lot in which the cnrcas
lay and shifted significantly over tn
body. Then it walked back to the ia
end and hung Its head over the fence
All Its madness seemed to vanish. an
it seemed satisfied since the other hors
