chief issued orders last night similar to
those which the Crown Prince Con-
stantine the Greek commander-in-chi
issued yesterday to his troops. Edhem
Pasha holds the commanders of the
Turkish frontier stations responsible
for any untOward incident.
1t is noteworthy, however, that large
bodies of Turkish troops are now NOV
ing towards the frontier together with
three mountain batteries and that the
ridges of Molina and Skumpa have
been strongly occupied by Turkish
troops, who will remain on guard there
until Wednesday.

CONVEY UNDER THE BAN.
The Tourist Mail Dog to Travel No
More.

Chicago, April 6.-The free and IN
limited travelings of "Owney," the eel
ebrated postal dog, are liable to be
hampered to a great extent in the near
future, as superintendent Troy of the
Chicago district of the railway mail
service has issued an order prohibiting
mail clerks from allowing "Owney'' to
travel in their cars. This order, it is
thought, will put an end to the travel
ing career of the much advertised ca
nine and he will hereafter have to be
content with a trip on a cable car or
else the regulation side door sleeper of
the tramps. a box car.
"Owney" is known to almost every
railway mail clerk in the United States
and has several times crossed the coun-
try, riding as a guest of the postal
clerks. He was in Kansas City last
week, coming in on the Alton and de-
parting a few minutes later on the
southbound Santa Fe train. The dogs
home is in Albany, N. Y, and as he is
now a long ways from there it is a mat
ter of conjecture as to how he will work
his passage back east.

THE ANTHONY BRANCH
Creating a Diversion With the Santa
Fe and Frisco in Stock Shipments.

South Haven, April 6.-Neal A. Pick
EFT was over last Tuesday to see the
stockmen to make up a stock shipment
to Kansas City over the Anthony
branch. They have seven loads prom
ised at Arkansas City. They will load
at Arkansas City about 2:30 p. m, pass
ing through here at 3:45 p. m, connect
ing with a through stock train over the
Rock Island at Caldwell at Sis p. m,
arriving at Kansas City at $40 a. m
A shipment made last week shows a
saving of at least eight hours. He says
the Frisco and the Santa Fee do not
like the idea of the Rock Island getting
this branch business and they are get
ting a hustle on themselves.
The granting of the terminal facili-
ties to the branch at Arkansas City
by the Frisco is largely due to the
fact of these shipments, and further
that the Arkansas City wholesale
houses and shippers are trying to make
arrangements to ship over this branch
if a proper agreement with the Rock
Island people can be made. Strange
as it may seem, the Arkansas City
stock shippers can save several hours
to Kansas City by this route and have
much more convenient hour for load
ing.
