NOTE TO TURKEY
Proposition OF Ambassadors as to
Terms Of Peace Finally
Promulgated.
Contention of Germany That
Greece Should Accept Them
in Advance
Delayed. and Threatened to
Prolong Indefinitely, the
Negotiations.

CONsTANTINoPLE, May 26.-The col
lective note of the ambassadors of the
powers Oh the subject Of Turkish de-
mands upon Greece has not yet been
presented owing to the German ambas-
sador, Baron Saurma Won Jeltsch, hav-
ing been forbidden to sign it until
Greece consents to the peace terms.
1t is further understood that Ger
many declares that she will withdraw
altogether from mediating should the
other powers consider the previous con
sent of Greece be unnecessary.
Germany's action is regarded as being
highly prejudicial to the prospect Of a
speedy conclusion Of peace, as it leads
Turkey to believe the powers are dis
united, and encourages opposition.
VIENNA, May 26.-The Neue Freit
Presse publishes a dispatch from Con
stantinople saying that Germany has
finally approved the conditions of peace
and that the identical note of the power,

Congressman Bland Comments Upon the
Attitude of the Speaker.
ST. LOUIS, May 26.-Congressman
Bland of Missouri is here to make sew
eral speeches in the First congressional
district. Speaking of the Morgan reso-
luton, Mr.. Bland said:
.'Two-thirds of the members of the
house are uncompronisingly i'll favor of
its adoption, but Mr.. Reed is to all in
tents and purposes the lower hous of
congress-, and the mere fact that two
thirds or three-fourths of the members
want any measure adopted counts for
nothing against his wishes. 1t is said
that he is opposed to the recognition of
the Cuban revOlutiOnistS and If this Is
true, it matters not what all the other
members Of congress want, the Morgan
resolution will never be voted upon at

Western Senators Make Threats.

Senator Warren of Wyoming appeared
2s the spokesman for the woolgrowers
of the West and said that the duties
proposed by the committee were, Ill his
Judgment, inadequate, and he thought
there should be increases on h ines OF
amendments proposed by the Western
senators.
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts spoke
against the duty on hides, saying he did
not see how he could avoid voting for an
amendment which proposed placing
hides on the free list. This statement
raised a storm among Western men,
who said that if such a method wa
proposed they would be compelled to
vote for placing certain articles on the
free list or for reducing the duty Oh
them. They did not expect that the
Democrats would vote with them to IN
| crease duties. The W~esterners an
nounced that to settle with the Eastern
men who voted to reduce duties on
their products they would vote to re
duce the duty on articles which theil
people purchased and did not produce.

A BuLKHEAD GIVES WAY.
Two Men Were Drowned and Five In
jured-One Seriously.

Oregon City, Oct. 2S.-A terrible ac-
the death of two men, and injuring five
others.
A gang of men had been working
might and day for a week to remove a
bulkhead, expecting to finish the work
this afternoon. The bulkhead was 60
feet long, and extended from the power
station on the east to the east wall of
the boat canal on the west. AT the
lower end of the new extension of the
power-house another bulkhead had been
constructed, and it was the intention to
take out the old one, in order to let the
water into the new section for the tur-
bines.
The workmen had removed a consid-
erable portion of the foundation of the
old bulkhead, and today were engaged
in taking off the nuts and cutting the
bolts, intending to remove the entire
wall tonight.
The work gave way and a flood of
water rushed in upon the workmen,
filling the section. AT first it was sup
posed that every man was drowned.
An alarm was given and the water was
drawn from the canal as soon as posssi-
BILE, as it was found that the work of
removing the mass of broken timbers
and recovering the bodies of the
drowned men would be facilitated by
floating the mass of debris. After this
was done a count of the men in the
gang was made. and it was found that
two men-Anton Natterlinand Jacob
Macomb-were missing.
These two men were evidently
drowned, and are no doubt beneath the
pile of broken timbers, which a large
number of workmen are now engaged
in removing. Natterlin an unmarried
man, and Macomb leaves a wife and
child.
Among the five injured men, the
most seriously hurt are Carl Newberg,
whose head was severely cut and
bruised, and Harvey Little, whose left
arm was bruised and whose head and
face were badly cut.
!. The three men who escaped unin-
jured were: Jacob Weidick, Alvin Rich
.ardson and Jacob Keane.
Thomas Smith had his spine hurt
and William w. Smith had one bone
of his right leg broken.
= The accident was5wing either to. a
iniscalculation of the weight of the
water behind the men or the strength
Of the bolts and timbers. Upon the
giving way of the wall the water rushed
into the lower section with terrific
force, carrying the timbers and all be-
fore it to the lower section. The men
who escaped fought their way through
the floating timbers and finally reached
point where they received assistance.

FROM THE NEW TESTAMENT.
Ancient Document Found in Recently
Unearthed Papyri.

Ancient Document Found in Recently
Unearthed Papyri.
Denver, Oct. 27.-Dr. Cobern, pastor
of Trinity Methodist church, who has
recently returned from England, tells
of wonderful papyri discovered last
January, and gives out information
which is new to the world. This is
that in the logia, which was unearthed
by Messrs. Grennfel and Hunt under
the direction of DIR. Flinders Petrie, of
Oxford university, last January, there
was found beside the notebook leaf,
containing what purported to be the
sayings of Jesus Christ, leaf from the
New Testament. The leaf contained
nearly the whole of the first chapter of
Matthew, and was written exactly the
same as our Greek testament of today.
DIR. Cobern says that this is our earl
lest record of the Bible, and that in the
81 baskets of papyri that were taken
out there may be found a copy of the
scriptures. He also points out what
blow to infdelism it might be, and
what strengthening of the Christian
cause. He says there is no doubt of
the genuineness of these fndings;. that
such critics as Professor Harmack and
Thompson have passed upon them and
declare that they could not have been
written later than 200 A. D. Z

FIVE BRAVES SLAIN :
Battle Between Colorado Game Protec-
y. - tors and Indians.

Battle Between Colorado Game Protec-
. tors and Indians.
Rifle, Colo, Oct. 2S.-Reports from
Snake river are to the effect that Game
Warden Wilcox attempted to arrest
some Indians near Lilly Park for vio-
lating the Colorado game laws, and was
fired upon by the Utes. Game. Warden
Wilcox with several posses of deputies
and ranchmen are after the Indians,
and further conflict seems inevitable,
The excitement here is intense, and
parties are organizing to go to Wilcox's
assistance, fearing. a. general uprising
.of the Indians. -
The trouble commenced last week )
when the White River, Uncompahgre,
and Uintah Utes began. pouring. over
the line from Utah on their annual fall
hunt. The White River Utes are ex-
ceptionally ugly, and have apparently
been anxious to pick trouble with par
ties of whites with whom they have
come in contact. The Utes were in the
Meeker massacre and have never been
anything but ugly and waiting for an
opportunity to do mischief. There are
several hundred of them now in the.
state.
Game Warden Wilcox with a small
party statred out toward the Indian
camp and approached the camp unob-
served. The game warden was resisted
and finally fired upon by the Indians.
Then a set encounter followed in which
a number of Indians were killed and
wounded. 1t was reported that Warden
Wilcox's s party also suffered severely.
Brigadier-G General Otis, of the depart
ment of the Colorado, says if the Cir
cumstances warrant; troops will be
sent to the scene of the trouble at once,
ready 10 proceed at a moments notice.
