MOORHEAD, Mimi, July 3.-The
city is all torn up tonight over the
way the Fourth of July celebration
has been conducted. Several saloons
that stood in with the administration
have run faro layouts, crap games,
hig six, wheels and other games wide
open. The visitors were played right
and left, and tonight John Haas, the
reputed manager of the syndicate, was
pulled on warrant sworn out by
City Attorney Peterson. 1t is under
stood that other arrests will follow.
Mayor Lewis is very much diSpleas ed
because Haas place was pulled, and
threatened vengeance on the city at
tCTney. The law has been so f1agrantly
violated that there is no question that
gambling will be stamped out and this
city rid of the games, tin horns and
crooks who have been attracted here
by the wide open policy of the admin
,istration.

Constantinople. April 1.-THE council
Of ministers. after = session at the pal
ace today, declared that war had broken
out on the frontier. owing to the incur
sion by the Greeks on Turkish terri
tory. and Edhem Pasha, the Turkish
military commander. was ordered 10
assume offensive.
The announcement of the actual e:,-
istence Of a state Of war on the frontier
was at first misunderstood, reports that
the council of ministers had declared
war upon Greece being widely circu-
lated
II was also reported that the council
of ministers had decided to recall As
sim Bey. the Turkish minister at Ath-
ems, and had given passports to Prince
MaurocorOtO, the Greek minister at
Constantinople.
These reports of the severance of all
diplomatic relations between Turkey
and Greece have been denied.
The situation is summed w in a
detailed circular sent this evening to
the Turkish representatives abroad.
This circular recalls the weeks in
Vasion of Turkish territory, and states
that The newest ircurSion was partici-
pated in by Greek troops, thereby es-
tablishing war. The circular expresses
the hope that the powers, in a spirit of
justice, will agree that the entire re-
sponsibility for the war fails on Greece.
Turkey has no idea of conquest, the
circular adds, and as a fresh proof of
pacific sentiments the sublime porte
offers to retire the Turkish troops on
the frontier if Greece will retire her
forces from the frontier and crom
Crete.

New York. April 1T.-Prince Carlo

Faustine. of Rome. and Miss Jane
Campbell of this city will not be mar
ried. Their engagement has been alb
ruptly terminated. The announcement
is made by a member of the family,
who received q cable message. This
news Will cause great surprise in So
ciety circles in New York. The most
astonished. however. will be the rela-
tives and friends of Miss Campbell
who have been sending wedding pres
ents across the water for some weeks
past. There are various reasons as
signed for the unexpected end of the
engagement One reason gives the i'll
health of the prince as the cause. An
other excuse is that Miss Campbell
decided that she would make a big
mistake in wedding the titled Italian.
1t is also limited that the young noble
man did not offer serious objections
to remaining a bachelor just at this
time. The engagement was only made
public about a month ago. The mar
riage ceremony was to have taken
place during the Easter holidays.

Greeks Were Defeated.

Larissa, Headquarters Greek Army,
April 7.-(Copyrighted by Associated
Press. "Details Of the fighting be
tween Greeks and Turks at Nezeros,
just within the Greek frontier line in
Thessaly and due south of Mount
Olympus, have been received here.
Fighting originated, according TO the
Greek reports. in an attempt upon the
part of the Turkish forces to occupy an
abandoned post of the Greeks. The
movement was opposed by the Greek
forces. whereupon the Turks opened
fire and a sharp engagement lasting
four hours ensued. The Greeks eventu-
ally retreated. Their losses are not
known. This engagement occurred yes
terday. AT o'clock this morning heavy
firing between the Turks and Greeks
near Nezeros was resumed. The Greeks
in the meantime had been reinforced
with artillery. which they brought into
play upon the Turkish position at kol-
roni. The latter was eventually de-
stroyed with dynamite. It Is reported
as this dispatch is sent that the Greeks
have occupied three Turkish stations

GOLD EXPORTS.
SAID TO BE A POSSIBILITY IN
THE NEAR FUTURE.
Some Interesting Figures Presented
by the New York Tribune's Fin
ancial Editor.

Washington, April 1.-THE Tribune
this morning says: There is pros
poet of gold exports in the near future.
II will not be surprising if shipments
are made within the next ten days. Until
very recently it was thought that no
gold would go to Europe this year or at
any rate until very late in the year. The
outgo of gold which now seems inevitable
will be due not to the condition in this
country but to the situation in London,
or to be more exact. TO the position in
which the Bank of England finds itself.
The bank has recently sustained tremen-
douS losses of gold from its vaults,
chiefly by reason of Withdrawals Tor
transfer to Australia and Japan and
especially the latter country The loss
in gold bullion by the bank. in the last
week has been f1,99S, III. or practically
The Shipments for the week to Japan
and Austria were S5,OOOOOO. Sterling eX-
change in New York is almost up TO
the gold exporting point which is cal
culated to be Si.SS4 for demand ex-
change.
While the posted rate for demand was
unchanged yesterday the actual rate
was advanced one-eighth of a cent from
$4.S75s to $4-Sl2s.
The Bank of Englaud's charge for gold
bars is about one penny an ounce above
the normal figure. and any additional
measure which it may adopt to protect
its own supply of gold will almost surely
result in gold being drawn from America
For another thing. the stock of bills
of exchange in New York which two or
three months ago was large-approximat-
ing at one time 100000 900 counting the
bills hypothetical for loans. has been re-
duced to between S5O00.000 and $4,000 600.
This is the time of year when there is
large call for bills by commercial re-
mitters and the amount of new bills Of
fering is not enough for their require
ments.
1t is lille to attempt to say how much
gold Will leave this country between this
date and July 1. but whatever it may be
it can readily be spared. There is
very large accumulation of gold here. The
gold reserve in the United States treas
ury aggregates S154 100000. The assO-
ciated banks of New York hold SS5. 900. 900
of which little over So. 600 is de-
posted in the vaults of the clearing
house.
Even should the gold to be sent abroad
be taken from the treasury reserve the
loss of $40, 0000 900 or 81, O00.e00 would still
leave the government with an ample
store
While the orders for the gold will come
from London. the shipments will prob
ably be made to Japan and Austria di-
rect. Accordingly a large part of the
shipment may be made from San Fran
cisco. Japan and Austria are acquiring
gold to place themselves on a gold cur
rency basis

According TO the previous arrangement
a formal ballot was taken and one vote

1t is not believed here that the in

it will solidify his forces, and he will
stand like a stone wall against all OPP

more or less than political persecution.

War has not been officially declared
between Turkey and Greece, but it has
been declared officially to have broken
out" The Turkish cabinet, has decided
to sever Diplomatic relations with
Greece. and has ordered Edhem Pasha,
the commander of the Turkish forces,
to take the offensive. 1t is said in Lon
don that war between Turkey and
Greece has actually begun. the Turkish
declarations that war has broken out"
being merely for the purpose of diplo-
matically putting the onus of the war
upon the kingdom of Greece.

Omaha, April 1.-THE Missouri river
here is stationary. but the flood is still
running a great stream into Cutoff
lake, which has risen six inches since
last night. The thing most dreaded is
now at hand. The first dyke across
the lake gave way this morning and a
gap of so feet is letting the torrent
down in the basement below the second
dyke. The water is rising rapidly.
This dyke is crossed by the railway
track and train load after train load of
material has been dumped there this
morning to strengthen the threatened
embankment- 1t alone now stands be-
tween the huge flood of water in Cutoff
lake and the railroad yards and fac
tories below
Up 10 II o'clock tonight the river has
fallen six inches since noon The lower
dyke at Cutoff lake still holds and
with the work done on il today will
very likely withstand the strain. A fall
of a foot in the river will remove the
danger that has threatened all work.
