tonight Is bivouacking in the IN VII
lages surrounding Pharsalos. captured
from the Greeks. The battle sbcgan at
o'clock In the morning. After skir-
mishes between the advance posts Of
the opposing forces, the Greek artillery
opened fire with great precision. But
the Turks pushed forward. exposing
themselves to the enemy's fire with the
greatest sang froid. The Greeks then
made a fatal error In leaving the COM
manding positions which they occupied
and retiring upon the plan. which was
commanded on all points by four bat
teries. which were brought into action
as soon as the Greeks left the hills. The
scene which followed was both inter-
esting and cruel. The Greeks from all
parts OF the plain were converging to-
ward a stone bridge spanning the river
and which was the only means Of get
ting over. The mass OF humanity at
this point was constantly growing when
the roar Of the Turkish artillery began.
The Turks obtained the exact range of
the enemy. and shell after shell fell
and exploded In the midst of the fugi-
tives. The havoc created by the shrap-

part of the Greeks crossed the river.
The Turks. who were then covering the
plain like bees. made a strong resist

"A furious fire.
In the face of this the Turks ad-
vanced with marvellous temerity and
captured the village. Owing To- the fact
that IL was not designed to commence
the decisive engagement until to-mOr-
row, the Turkish division intending to
take the enemy In flank only arrived
half an hour before the close of the
combat to-day. having marched 30
miles. The Greek guns. while they
opened well. ended badly. while ours
we're served even better than usual.
The Turkish attack upon Vasili was
made without any previous plan. The
men were ordered To capture the place
and they advanced quietly. shooting a.

The Major Blessed by the Recognition
of His Dying Mother, Who Seemed to
Have Rallied For That Purpose-A
Ton, = ne Scene.

CANTON, Dec. 8.-The children of
Nancy Allison Mckinley are gathered
about her couch awaiting the end.
The president and Mrs Mckinley are
among the group. With the children
are Airs. Abigail Osborne, mother of
Consul William Osborne; Miss Sarah
Duncan, who came from Chicago, where
she is attending school; her brother,
Jack Duncan, who came from an east
ern school, and the other grandchildren
who have been summoned from their
studies aud their homes, together with
their resati es. making the immediate
family circle most complete.
In the midst of tie deep sorrow of
the family here is feeling of JOY that
the pre- idont was permitted to reach
his motHcf bedside before the newt
able uIsso,o ton came and that the
mother nflght again realize his presence
and he knew that he had been rocog-
diced. These hopes have been granted
them. and they now patiently and re-
signedly await the end.
The president and Mrs. Mckinley on
their arrival were taken to the home
steal as rapid Y as possible, and as they
entered the sics room the dying woman
rallied and for o moment plainly evil
denced her recognition of her son and
others about her
The eyes Of all present were filed
with tears as they witnessed the re-
markable and almost miraculous rally
of the presidents mother from the un-
conscious state into which she had
fallen early in the morning. AS her
distinguished son entered the room &C.
companied by his wife and his niece.
Miss Mabel Mckinley, the sister of the
president, Miss Helen, said: "Mother,
here are William and Ida. He knelt
by her bedside, kissed her tenderly and
as he did so she put her arm about his

She also recognized the presidents wife
and rea he'd her hand toward her. and

DIM an.
1t seemed to friends that she had
somehow or other been waiting for the
arrival of her son. Soon after she
lapsed into an uncons ious state and
the strength that had been husbanded
for probably the last meeting of son and
mother seemed to leave her and she fell
into sweet repose.

Coon roads is what is needed to
build up the county town. No town
can be prosperous in business when
roads are so bad in winter that the
farmer cannot get to town. More
money is spent on the roads in the
different districts, each year, that is
worse than uselessly thrown away.
This money properly utilized would
pike and macadamize all the leading
roads in the county.
THE colored folks of Martinsburg,
were enjoying cake walk and hay
ing gorgeous time generally when
a lamp was upset. A quick "scat-
teration'' followed, the coons forget
ting the cake in the effort of each to
save his bacon. The affair was in
progress IN hall used by the Ma
tional Guard as an armory and there
were several hundred pounds of am
munition in the building. Had the
flames touched off these cartridges
there might have been a ghost dance
instead of cake walk.
WHILE the Bishop of Havana APP
peals for charitable contributions from
the United States for the relief of the
starving people Of Cuba, Captain Gen
eral Blanco is quoted as saying that
conditions have been very much i'm
proved under his management and
that such contributions are not
needed. People in this country will
have no difficulty in deciding between
these statements. The Bishop of
Havana has as good means of learning
the truth as the Captain General,
with none of the incentives of the lat
ter to tell what is not true. There
should be a hearty response to the
Bishops appeal His promise con-
corning distribution of supplies is suf-
ficient to assure would-be contribu-
tors, and surely there is enough pros
perity and charity here to relieve such
awful distress.

Three Thousand of Them Send One From
Dayton to Senator Hanna.
DAYTON, Dec ga petition signed
by 5000 veteran inmates of the Central
Branch National Military home, near
this city, has been mailed to Senator
Hanna in Washington to present to
congress. The petition is strong, and
in respectful terms sustains the PROPOSE
ton of General Breckenridge, inspector
general of the army, to change the
management of all soldiers homes so
that the secretary of war will have di-
rect control, the same as the regular
army home at Washington.
The veterans especially commend the
recommendation of General Breckin-
ridge providing for communication of
rations, s. or SO a month, while on
furlough or permanent leave from the
home. as this money in addition to
their pensions would enable them to
live comfortably with their families
away from the soldiers home. They
urge that room will thus be made in
the homes for destitute soldiers who
are now barred from the overcrowded
institutions.

diplomats In Washington Think Other

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-The German
advance in China is being watched
with keen interest in official and diplo-
matte circles here, owing to the latest
cable reports that Germany had fol-
lowed up her occupation of Kiao-Chou
bay and Notifications by sending an
armed force inland and occupying the
town OF kiao- Chou While it is said
that the United States has no direct
concern in the trouble, every develop
ment is being observed as part of the
process by which the larger nations of
Europe are seeking the dismember-
ment of the Chinese empire. AS one
diplomatic Official stated: 1T is the
all. vrptIon,of the Orient by the occi-
dent"
In such a movement it is understood
that the position of this government
would be that af disinterested OBJ
server, always active, however, to pro-
tect those American interests which
have been built up at the large treaty
ports. AT present there is no s1gges-
ton tina these may be affected. but the

HAITI FORCED TO YIELD.
German Warships Scared the Govern
ment of the Black Rep bile.

German Warships Scared the Govern
ment of the Black Rep bile.
PoRr Az PRINCE. Dec. SIT is
understood that the question of the in
demnity demanded by Germany for
the alleged illegal arrest and imprison-
ment of Herr Emil Lueders, German
subject, has been settled to the salts
faction of Germany and that all the
demands of that country have been
agreed to by the government OF Haiti
owing to the threat of bombaSdment
of the defensive works of the port By
two German warships unless these de-
mands were agreed to.
The first part OF the settlement took
place when the Haitian fleet formally
saluted the German flag FROM the flag
ship of the fleet OF Haiti, the Crete-a~
Pierrot, small vessel of $40 tons,
armed with few guns of light caliber~
While the flag of the republic was
being dipped on board the Crete-a-Pler-
rot to the standard of Germany, the
band of the haitian nava played the
German national anthem and the Hal
tian flagship fired u guns, which was
answered by the German flagship, the
Charlotte, which is used as a school
ship.
alThe second part of the settlement o;
the trouble between Germany and
Haiti took place when Count Won
Schwerin, the German minister to
Haiti, was formally and solemnly re-
ceived by the Haytian officials. The
latter, it is understood, have assured
the German authorities that summary
justice will be promptly melted out to
those of the officials of Haiti who
caused the estrangement between the
republic and Germany.
