The Progress was satisfied that

F0MENT AMONG MOSLEMS.
Turkeys victory ,IaFes Those In Russian
ASA Troublesome.

ST. PETEEsBvRo, Lee. 10.-Through-
out Russian \ ia there is general I'M
resi- among the Moslems. 1t is at
tribnted to the exaggerated reports of
the Turkish victory over the great
Greek empire" which have spread
through the length and breadth of the
continent.
The authorities even fear that the re-
vival of brlgundage recently noticed in
the Caucasus is directed almost solely
against the government officials, and
the unprecedented phenomenon of
Georgians displaying hostility toward
Armenians has become manifest.
The danger is so serious that con-
ference of Caucasian governors has
been convoked to concert measures of
pacification. Travellers in Central Asia
report an extraordinary ferment among
the Moslems OF different races. They
are sinking their mutual animosities
and declaring that they are first of all
Mohammedans with the sultan as their
common chief.
1t IS evident that the slightest pretext
would Suffice to bring about an upris-
ing and to D nge Russia into the same
sea of troubles as India.

NJ DKID, Dec. l0.-At a cabinet coun-
Gil the queen recent pres,%lg. the
premier Senior ~a0asta outlined the
opinions of the i.uropean press regard
ing President McKinley's message to
congress. tho majority of which, the
premier said, were favorable to Spain.
He further declared that in the event

operations in Cuba. the premier in
formed the cabinet that the results
obtained were satisfactory. The Me-
mier also says he did not attach i'm
portance to 1.-The attitude of certain
senators.
The impartial says that it takes for
granted that the government will make
the necessary preparations to meet
the intervention threatened by Presi-
dent Mckinley" adding: IF the new
loan for the reorganization of the navy
is f1oated, it is sure to succeed"
In conclusion The impartial says
"The responsibility of the government
is enormous if it fails to profit by the
opportunity offered to place the coun.
try in position TO defend its inter-
ests.'
The ministerial Globe confirms the
reports that the government is making
preparation to meet the threats of inter

pslVATt PENSION BILLS.

Senator Gailinger Says Senators Should
re More Careful In Backing Them..
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The senate
did considerable amount of business,
although no very important measures
were considered or passed and there was
very little debate. Senator Gallinger,
chairman of the committee on pensions,
called attention to the increasing de-
mand for private pension legislation
and requested senators to be careful IN
the future to see that their bills for pri-
vate pensions were meritorious before
they were introduced.
An attempt was made by Senator Nc
Bride TO secure an appropriation for the
relief of the klondike miners, but the
net result was resolution calling on
the secretary of war for all informa-
ton he ha on that subject. An hour
was devoted to the consideration of
private pension bills and i, were
passed. The resolution of the Pacific
railroad committee, asking information
regarding the sale of the Kansas Pa ific,
was passed, which gave Senator Gear

OUR TURN AT HAITI
Claim of American For Damages

Claim of an American For Damages
Pending For Years.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The Haitian
minister. Mr.. Leger, has called at the
state department and made some repre-
sensations touching the case of the
American engineer, Campbell, whose
claim for an indemnity formed the
subject of resolution of inquiry which
has been presented in the United States
senate.
About 1888, according to the minis
ter's representations, Campbell made a
contract. OF with Haitian, but with
Mr.. Compton, an American citizen,
to go to Haiti to serve as an engineer.
When he reached the country he re-
fused TO serve. An effort made to
oblige him to AIRY out his contract
failed. Nine years later Campbell sued
Co pton in New York for breach of
contract and, getting a verdict, fled
claim for indemnity with the state de-
partment against the government of
Haiti for the sum of 100000. That
claim is still pending.
The minister took occasion to assure
Secretary Sherman of the warm feel
ing of regard felt by his government
and people towards the United States.

And these poor people will serve to
point another moral, to the effect that
abuse is not argument, for they were

their beliefs down in the swamps of

not break bones, but it does not heal
resentments: ranking sores bleed on

Finally, know what you do know;

Republican and Northern Democratic
Hoos. Members Favor 1t.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The house
has entered upon the consideration of
the pension appropriation bill and
stirred up debate that promises to
continue for several days. Several of
the southern Democrats offered criti-
cisms of various classes of pensioners
and Private John Allen miss. J, who
led the assault in a speech replete with
his characteristic humor, presented a
series of amendments designed as he
said. to correct some of the most glar-
ing evils. They prohibit the granting Of
pensions to widows whose applications
were not filed during their widowhood,
and the granting of pensions to widows
whose applications were based on mar
riages contracted after the passage of
this act, and to permanently insane or
idiotic minors who had reached their
majority.
The northern Democrats, however,
vie with the Republicans in their pro-
LESSONS of friendship for the soldiers,
and one of them, Mr.. Norton (O.), de-
clared that the Republicans could not
make the bill too large for him. 1t
was admitted on both sides of the
house during the discussion that the
$40, 600, 900 carried by the bill for pen
sions would not cover the expenditures,
but as congress would be in session,
Mr.. Cannon said it would be easy to
make good any deficiency that might
