No Intimation Given of the Method
to Be Pursued to Make
Turkey Act

CONSTANTINOPLE, July 12.-Fol-
lowing is the text of the collective note
of the powers to Turkey:
The great powers have adopted the
project Of strategical rectification as 1t
has been worked out by the military
attaches and communicated to the

of the ministry of commerce, who was
! recently appointed mutesarif of Urfa,
| refuses to go to Urfa until the arrears
of his salary shall have been paid. He
has fortified his house in Constantinople
| and surrounded it with armed men, to
| whom he has given orders to resist any
attempt to abduct him.
| Said Bey's appointment is tantamount
to sending him into exile and was made,
it is said, because he was suspected OF
affiliations with the young Turkey

ALL DROWNED
An Unknown Sloop Sunk Off Long
Beach

NEW YORK, July pa special to
the Herald from Long Beach, L. l., says:
A single-masted, sloop-rigged craft, on
which it is supposed there are several
persons, was caught in a terrific storm
off the coast and went down. Before the
disaster the craft had been rocking wild
ly in the storm, its sails torn away, and
about the last that witnesses on shore
saw was a signal of distress waving
from the boat. There is little doubt that
all on board pershed.
A -masted, full-rigged fishing
smack, whose captain discovered the
peril of the occupants of the sloop, put
out to the rescue, made a plucky effort
to get to the smaller craft, but the heavy
sea made it's efforts unavailing. When
the sloop was last seem she was about
seven miles away from the Rockaway
shore and several miles away from Long
Beach and Sandy Hook. The fishing
smack gave up the chase finally, hav-
ing been unable to get within mile of
the sloop. The smack headed towards
NortOn's landing.

American consumers are shut in the
home market to be preyed upon by com
binations and trusts without POSSIBLE
ity of relief from outside competition.
Such combinations, by joining to keep
up prices and to curtail production,
wage more merciless war against the
employment, the opportunities and the
compensation of American labor than
any possible competition from abroad
could do.
The falling off Of importations under
the present law dispels the illusion
that the American laborer is anywhere
deprived of employment by the impor-
tation of foreign products. The graf
flying increase in our exports of manu-
features is equally strong proof that
those laws are helping us to enter and
command new markets, which means
not only larger employment for our art
isans but more home consumers for
our farmers.
