compelled to flee to Baltino with heavy
losses.
Baltino lies on a small elevated spur,
so the Greeks were able to approach
quite near beneath the Turkish line of
fire, and soon succeeded in reaching the
outermost houses, from which poured
a sharp fire.
The Turkish force occupied large
two-story house in the center of the
village and fighting from that point con-
tinued for some time. Finally Mylonas
sent a Turkish prisoner to urge the
Turks to surrender. The Turkish cap
tain replied that he would fight TO the
last. Thereupon Mylonas ordered his
men to cease firing. intending 10 blow
up the place with dynamite.
Nightfall came on and heavy storm
set in. The Greeks were drenched to the
skin. but they held their ground and
repulsed three sorties of the Turkish
garrison with heavy loss.

MOJAVE MURDERS
Panamint Tom Adds to His Long List
of Grimes

MOJAVE, April 12.-Reports of the
triple murder at Panamint are confirm
ed, and the terror of that section of coun-
try, an old Indian chief called Panamin.
Tom, has added three more victims to
his long list of murders. Billy" Lang
don of Tulare, Frank Reed, residence
unknown, and Jules Goldsmith of San
Francisco were murdered by the Indian
some time after dusk on Friday evening.
He used the Indian tactics, sneaking
unawares upon his victims, shooting and
killing Langdon instantly and then club
bing Goldsmith and Reed to death with
the butt of his gun, after mortally
wounding them. Tom gave himself up
after a hard run for his life, to FRANK
Montgomery of Los Angeles, who has a
camp about fifteen miles from the scene
of the tragedy. The trouble arose over
a transfer of mining property in wnicn
the Indian thought he had the worst Of
the bargain. Panamint Tom is very like
ly to be lynched.

Trust Case Advanced

WASHINGTON, April 12.-The SUI
preme court of the United states, after
announcing several opinions, today took
a recass until Monday next.
The court advanced the Texas anti
trust cases on the docket to be heard on
the second Monday of the next term
The law in controversy defines trusts
and declares them to be Illegal. Several
arrests were made under it, but the pris
oners were released by the federal court
on motion for habeas corpus. The state
authorizes appeal to the supreme court
Edward L. Shaw filed motion for a
writ of certiorari to the circuit court OF
appeals of the ninth circuit in the case
of the Mutual Life Insurance company
VS.. Nellie Phinney, eXecutriX of the es-
tate of Guy c. Phinney, to have the case
brought to the supreme court. The case
involves an insurance policy of $l00,0Oo
1t was decided against the insurance
company by the California federal
courts.
In the case of the American Publish
ing company VS.. the Fisher Brewing
company. appealed from the supreme
court of the territory of Utah. the court,
through Justice Brewer rendered an
opinion holding as invalid the territorial
statute validating verdicts in civil cases
in which only nine jurors concur.
The ground on which the law was
pronounced Objectionable is found in
the seventh amendment to the consti-
tution and in the general law confirming
the statutes of the various territories.
$50 far as they authorize uniform
course of proceeding in all cases whether
legal or equitable" The court expressed
the opinion that uniformity was pre-
requisite in all territorial cases. No opiu-
ion was expressed as to the validity Of
such a law under a state form OF gov
ernment. The case itself involved a
claim of $4,000.
The court affirmed the decision of the
supreme court of Washington in the
cases from that state brought to enjoin
the state and county authorities from
levving upon the safes, time-locks and
other personal property of the banks ior
the purpose of collecting tax upon the
capital stock of the banks under the
state law Of 1891. 1t was contended that
the law was in conflict with section 52,g
of the revised statutes of the United
States, but the court held that such was
not the case.
Justice Gray rendered the opinion of
the court in the case Of Morris l.. Glad
son vs. the state of Minnesota, affirm
ing the decision of the state supreme
court. The case involved the validity
of the Minnesota state law, requiring all
passenger traLns on state railroads to
stop at county seats which are railroad
stations, which todays opinion affirms.

of Massachusetts, the Men
Associated Press Special Wire.

ASsoCidtSu tlSSs OpSIidt Fl" Ae.
WASHINGTON April 12-The pres
ident tonight announced the appoint
ment Of Senator o. Wolcott of Colorado,
Hon. Charles j. Paine Of Boston and
ex-vlce President Adlai Il. stevenson
as commissioners TO an international
monetary conference. These appoint
ments are made under the act approved
March 3 last, for the promotion of in
ternational agreement for bimetalhsm,
and the provisions do not require con-
hrmation by the senate
1t has been generally conceded that
Senator Wolcott would be made MEM
Der of the commission. He has been an
active leader in the movement Tor a
monetary agreement, and is Wldeiy
known as an advocate of the silver
cause. His trip to Europe last summer
was generally conceded to be at least
semi-official as the representative of
the new administration. His tour ex-
tended over several months and en-
braced the leading European capitals.
Ex-Vice President Stevenson, the
Democratic member of the commission,
though not generally known as an ad-
varata of hirnetallism was staunch
supporter Of Mr.. Bryan and the Chicago
platform. He and Senator Wolcott
however, are said TO be in accord upon
the financial question.
Gen. Charles J. Paine. who may be
termed the minority member, is a Re-
publican, and was a Mckinley man. He
is one of the most prominent business
men of Massachusetts, and is said to
be a deep student on the financial ques-
ton. While he is classed as a supporter
of bimetallism, based on international
agreement, he is regarded as allied with
the sound money faction. He is grad
uate of Harvard, being a member of
the class of 49, Gen. Paine is largely
identified with railroads and other cor
porations, being a director of the Chi
cago, Burlington and Quincy railroad
and other large concerns, and director
of the Boston institute of technology.
He was an intimate friend and associate
of Prof Walker, the financial author
and authority.
1t is not known when the commission
will meet and organize. When it is
organized, however, it is believd Sena-
tor Wolcott will he made president. 1t
is believed the commissioners will not
go abroad before May 1st, at which time
the new ambassadors will be at their
posts and will render the special ENJOYS
the assistance necessary in the consum-
nation of their mission.
ENGLAND NOT ANXIOUS.
LONDON, April 12.-Answering a
question regarding the prospect of the
government sending out invitations to
a bimetallic conference, Mr.. Balfour
reiterated in the house today that there
was nothing in the situation which would
lead him to suppose that anything could
be gained by Great Britain taking the
initiative in promoting an international
bimetallic conference.

CALIFORNIA Los Angeles. AT
Caledonia Hall, Los Angeles, Sunday
January 4. Rev. A. A. Rice spoke on 1.-The
Lesson of the Last Supper" from John
xvii, Il. IL pray that they may
all be one.' He said in brief; The
words of the text are taken from prayer
which is the expression OF supreme life
purpose. That purpose was the union
OF humankind in spirit and life. But
adverse to this, men ally themselves to
those forces which tend to disunion.
There are three incidents in the last sup.
per which teach the unity of the human
race. First, Judas as an object lesson.
Here avarice and passion, the active and
violent forces of disunion, are condemn
ed. Second. washing the disciples feet
is condemnatory of selfishness, Pharlsa
ism or caste; the spirit which tends to a
division of humanity. Third, the break
ing OF bread discloses beyond the mere
rite that union of the disciples which
shows their ability to eat in harmony of
spirit from the same loaf, or, in other
words, demonstrated that they we're per
fectly in accord one with another; their
true memorial Of Him being their union
by love.
