VALPARAISO MISSION
BUT HAS NOT LOST HOPE OF
ONE WITH LARGER SALARY.
DUG CARTER WANTS THE PLACE
Dudly After Newbern's Post Office--Senator
Harris Weaker Senator Butler Did
Not Vote on the Tariff Bill.

Washington, July 7.-(Special)-And
so the Rev. Ki Gudger declined the mis-
sion to Valparaiso. The distance wa
too far from home and the pay too smah.
but the Rev. Ki will get something just
as good. Senator Pritchard and Repre-
sentative Linney were out this morning
in the interests of the Rev. Ki. They
saw the President and Attorney General,
but with what result is not known. Now
that the Valparaiso mission has been de-
clined by one Tar Heel statesman, an
other is already hot for the job.
1t is Representative Pearson's candi-
date, Eugene Garter, better known as
Dug Carter, of Asheviir. Those who
know Dug say he will not decline the
job, but perhaps he won'c have the OPP
portunity.
Il. d. Dudley, who wants the Newbern
postoffice, is in the city. He was at the
White House to-day with Congressman
White. From what can be learned to-
night, Mr.. Dudley's chances are not the
most encourage.
Senator Harris is weaker tonight. His
intimate friends say it IS barliy :n.ssible
for him to last more than two or three
days.
Now that the tariff bill has passed the
Senate and will go to conference to-mor-
row, perhaps that wave of prosperity that
was promised by Hanna to follow the
nomination of Mckinley may put in an
appearance. Senator Butler, however,
does not take this view, and said so to-
night in explaining why he should with
hold his vote on the passage of the tariff
bill at this time.

There were seven prostrations, which
are likely to result fatally and twelve
not so serious. There were 125 deaths
in Chicago on July 9th, the largest num-

Will Fight if Peace IS Not Concluded
in Week.
London, July 7.-Greco-Turkish affairs
appear to be entering an interesting
stage.
To-day the Porte dispatched a cir
cular to its representatives abroad con-
tanning skillful defense of the Turk
ish case and declining to consider any
frontier line in Thessaly north of the riv-
er Peneois, which it regards as the nat,
ural boundary.
| 1t appears that the Sutton has con-
vinced himself that the powers will not
resort to coercion and has decided to test
the alleged concert of Europe to the ut
most. On Monday he summoned coun-
Gil of ministers for an extraordinary sit
ting to the Yildiz Kiosk, with the result
that, after heated discussion, a report
was drawn up in favor of resuming hos
tilities, if peace should not be concluded
within a week.
The Minister of War sent telegrams
to Edhem Pasha announcing the decision.
This accords with all the news re-
ceived for the last ten days. The Turks
are rapidly strengthening their posi-
tions in Thessaly, massing troops at Do
moko, fortifying Velestino and in other
ways intrenching themselves more firm
ly. The Thessalians harvest has already
been reaped by the Turkish soldiery. and
large quantities of grain have been stored
at ElassOna.

BREWERS PLANS.
More About the Concerted Move
to be Made Oh Kansas.

In another place in the Journal will be
found a lengthy article on the meeting of
brewers at Kansas City yesterday to in
fiuence the coming session of the legis-
Iature in regard to prohibition legislation.
The following special to the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat today throws further
light on the matter:
Kansas City, Mo, Nov. lot has been
decided that the brewers will make con-
certed effort this winter to effect the re-
peal of the prohibition law in Kansas.
Their object is not to create a demand
for more beer in the Sunfiower state, but
to free themselves from the burdens that
are now saddIed upon them in the way OF
contributing to campaign funds, to the
private benefit of Officeseekers and the
demand of officehoIders. All the Kansas
City breweries, with the exception of the
Muehlbach company, which does not do
a large business, were represented at a
meeting with Colonel Fred Pabst, Jr., of
Milwaukee, and Philip Stock of St Louis
in the Coates House today. They discuss
ed at much length the advisability OF
making fight on the prohibition law at
the session of the legislature which they
expect will be called in Kansas this win
ter.
you see, there is a great deal of talk
of a special session over in Kansas, said
one of the brewers this afternoon. Now
we want to see what we can do in the
way of getting the constitution of Kansas
amended or of having repealed by the
legislature the penalty for the violation
of the prohibition clause. If there is no
penalty. of course the law will be inop-
erative."
do YOU know that special session will
be called?'
well if we did not have a pretty good
idea to that effect We would not be here
today. We do a big business in Kansas,
but we want to do it open and above
board. We want the law to read that
way; but of course, the prohibttlonists
don't and there you are"
The brewers say that the method by
which business has to be done in Kansas
gives every offceholder and politician
chance at them. One brewer said that his
Kansas business had trebled since July.
1t is said that the prosperity that has
come to Kansas will make business good
there for two years at least The brew
ers desire TO do this business without be-
ing mulcted on every hand
For three years the brewing companies
have banded together. and have referred
all requests for aid from Kansas to one
man Before this arrangement was made
conditions were worse. Politicians seek
ing aid for a campaign fund would often
90 to a brewer and say they had recelV-
cd $500 from another. in order to swell
the brewers subscription, when in fact
they had been given perhaps $40 by the
first one. In this way they kept the
brewers guessing until the latter estab-
Hshed a common fund.
