(By Associated Press.)

New York, Nov. 14.-Petks Karava-
leoff, prime minister of Bulgaria, has
just been interviewed by a Sofia CORE
spondent. Said the prime minister;
For humanitarian reasons the minis
ter of the interior has undertaken to
tolerate fresh intercourse between the
brigands and an American agent.
1t is bad precedent to recognize the
brigands. however indirectly. but We
wish to stretch q point for America and
the cause of humanity.
THE brigands, wherever they are, can
now treat unmolested with the American
representative, and safe conduct win be
given to any man or men recommended
by Mr.. Dickinson.
No Brigandage in Bulgaria.
There is no brigandage In Bulgaria.
Turkey is the cause Of the brigandage.
pillage, murder and massacre in Mace
donia. Conditions there are intolerable.
Europe has been in a vicious circle re.
garding Macedonia since the Berlin
treaty. All the powers agree that Mace
donia should have autonomy. but mono
are willing to move In the matter.
Count Andrasy of Austria was moro
to blame than Lord Beaconsfleld at the
Berlin conference for the present con-
dition of Macedonia, which Is crying to
heaven for vengeance.
France patches up her quarrel with
Turkey, oblivious of liberty, equality or
fraternity for Macedonia: Germany il
satisfied with all matters out with
Turkey. Europeans themselves may
break the vicious circle and break
Turkeys cruel boast, we took you by
the sword, and by the sword we shall
hold you. All we ask for Macedonia is
autonomy. We do not seek annexation.
Barbarities in Turkey.
"If the American people knew the kind
of hellish barbarities perpetrated by
Turkey in Macedonia, the voice of the
nation which freed Cuba and fought the
most chivalrous and unselfsh war Of
modern times would awaken the cabinets
Of Europe to a sense of their duty re-
garding Macedonia"
In conclusion the premier said that he
wished the United States would estab-
lish a consulate at Sofia, Verona and
Phillipipolis. particularly as Bulgaria -
entirely agricultural and needs Ameri-
can agricultural implements.

SHE WANTED HIM FREED.
Thought Talk Ought to Get a Man
Out OF Jail

Many people have queer notions about
the operation of legal machinery. To
their minds little talk ought to fix
anything, and, frequently, they send their
women do the talking.
a Swedish woman who possessed about
cents worth of English, a large, fine
physique and rudy cheeks and yellow
hair. burst in upon the occupants of the
county attorneys office today and de-
handed the release of the man who is
in Jail for stabbing another.
Il dank it best you let dot man CO."
she said.
Il dank not" deputy replied, and
then there was an argument.
Most of the woman's remarks passed
her listeners by, but occasionally bright
gem OF intelligence sparkled on the sur
face of her wonderful flow Of occult
speech, and it was learned that one rea-
son why the man should be freed was
because his wife had it her head to re-
turn to the old country.
The deputy explained that that was
no bar against a prosecution for assault.
Then it leaked out Of the lady's copious
declamations that the man was one
of her boarders and always paid his
bills also that he was her husbands
brother.
Il dank dot Is noting he do" the lady
declared.
But dank it is" the official insisted.
The lady then added that the stabbed
man had beaten the man in Jail in the
| face. Then the prosecutor rang in the
old saw about one wrong failing to right
! another, especially when it had been
slept on.
The lady disregarded this talk, and
said 1T 0aNk he was "a h,prt dot
| II dank that maybe so, but it doesn't
! cut the ice," the deputy returned.
The lady wanted to know then when
! the man would be turned loose, and when
she learned that her eloquence was all
lost and that the man would continue
to stay right where he was, she went
away very much dissatisfied.

ADVISES CITIZENS TO
ACT ON WATER QUESTION

Rock Island, April editor AR
GUs.-I read in the report of the do
ings of the city council that the So
inch intake pipe at a place near the
shore was cracked, making an open
ing large enough to admit a hand.
The health committee suggested that
the intake pipe be reIaid and the
inner wall at the waterworks be sur
rounded by another well to prevent
leakage.
The reports were received and re-
ferred to the waterworks committee
to report back to the council. 1t is
coldly asserted that this waterworks
committee has known for some time
that the intake pipe was broken. Can
we hope now that anything will be
done to stop the flood of sewage into
the water furnished the city?
Gross negligence has caused suffer-
ing on every side. Let the citizens
look the matter squarely in the face.
We have an affiicron here caused, as
all medical men everywhere say, by
poisoned water or food. We have
had the water examined and it is
found full of rottenness and poison.
The comm unity is advised to boil all
water used. Nothing is done to make
the water supply better When the
health commissioner advises action,
repairs, etc.. his resolutions are passed
up and down in the council to the
waterworks committee to be returned
to the council. Meanwhile splendid
young men and dear little children are
sickening and dying. 1t is time the
citizens of the town took this matter
up. Hold public meeting and urge
the city council to begin repairs OF
those broken pipes 'and wells-to do
what any sensible person would do if
the pipe supplying his house was tax
ing sewage. NJ. A. l..
The foregoing communication, re-
ceived today by THE ARGUS, contains
many truths and wise recommends
tions that the council may well heed.
But it is gratifying to state that
typhoid and other forms of disease
that have prevailed in Rock Island
during the winter are abating and
the city is again recovering it's
usual healthy condition. This is in a
measure due to the precautions that
have been strictly lived up to and
should be continued till all doubt as
to the purity of the water is removed.
