FEW GREETINGS.
And the Watch Meeting Monday
Niqht Was Declared Off.

Owing to an alleged statement of
the appearance here Of a dangerous
disease the watch meeting and other
exercises scheduled to occur at the
Methodist church on Monday even
ing, were indefinitely postponed.
This knocked out the fine program
prepared for that purpose, and also
prevented the readings of the greet
ings from crowned and other heads
of countries, and from the most
prominent people all over the world
Private watch parties were held
all over the city, however, and the
populace in very good proportions,
saw the death of the 10Th century
and the birth of the Goth century.
These watch parties, however, were
not organized. .-...
Only five Of these greetings we're
received by Mr.. Barackman in time
for the meeting, if the latter had
come off, and the minister is inclined
to think that there is something
wrong with the agency from which
these greetings we're secured. One
came from Marquis Ito of Japan,
who hoped that all people under the
sun would fully share in the Red
Cross benefits. Another came from
Prince Komatsu, honorary president
of the Red Cross society of Japan,
who said:
standing between two centuries
we bid adieu to the one without vain
regrets: we welcome the other with
out apprehension; conscious that
we are equal sharers in the world s
destiny of the coming era. believing
that the dawning era has in it's
keep for humanity still richer endow
ments than the unnumbered lega-
cies which the departing age has
left US.
Jim Wilson, secretary Of agricul-
ture, greeted the Red Gross with
a hope that it would in the centu-
ry bring us near to the Christ-like
ideal. President Diaz of Mexico. con
cluded his greeting in the following
paragraph:
Let us vow, since we are asked
by humanity, consecrated to miti-
gate the evils of war, that the 10th
century, happier in this regard than
the 18th, may succeed in seeing
these desires transformed into a
splendid reality
President Iglesias of Costa Rica
sent most enthusiastic and sincere
con gratulations for the benefits lay
Iished to this time on mankind by
the Red Cross society.

FRENCH PRESSURE WINS
Turkey Yields at Last to the De.
mands Upon Her.

Constantinople, Aug. 26. - The
Quays company question has been
settled, as expected, in accordance
with the desires of France.
An imperial trade has been issued,
ordering that the company shall be
allowed to exercise freely all the
rights granted by the concession.
Paris, Aug. 26.-Turkey has yield
ed to French pressure, as was newt
able, and a full rupture of the rela-
tions between the two countries has
been ayerted. The official commun-
ique announcing the granting of the
French demands issued this morn
ing follows: I'm consequence of the
declaration made to the porte by
the French ambassador that he acts
under instructions of the minister
of foreign affairs, an imperial trade
has been issued directing that no
obstacle shall be placed in the way
of the free exercise by the Quays
company of the rights of using their
concession"
A firman for the settlement of the
matters in question will, it is be-
lieved, be ssued shortly.
The foreign office officials do not
conceal their delight at the settle
ment of the Turkish difficulty. Dur
ing the last few days it was evident
that some anxiety was felt lest the
affair mar the festivities on the occa-
sion of the cars visit.
The correspondent of the Associ
ated Press learns that NJ. Constants
dispatch was very brief, but it leaves
no doubt that the sultan has yielded
all that was wanted in the matte
of the quays, by issuing an trade rec
ognizing the full rights, claimed by
the French company, to extend its
operations, buy land and start fer
ries. also removing the annoying re-
strictions hitherto imposed by the
custom and police officials. This not
only ended tine disputes. but ends
also all questions of the repurchase
of the company's concession by the
porte at the present time.
Regarding the other French claims
as their amount has been admitted
by Turkey, the negotiations only
turn the matter of payment. This
will be arranged quickly.

NEWS In GENERAL
SHERIFF WHIPS A MOB.
Alabama Oniciai with Little Band
Deputies Protects u Pills oner.

Alabama Ofaciai with Little Band of
Deputies Protects n Prisoner.
Asheville. Ala, Aug. 24.-Sheriff
North, with a posse of twenty-seyen
men, fought and whipped mob OF
400 armed citizens who were deter
mined to lynch Jim Brown, a negro,
under sentence of death. In the bat
tie three members of the mob were
wounded, two of them fatally, and the
crowd dispersed, at least temporarily.
Brown, the negro, was convicted at
special term of court of an assault
upon white woman, and sentenced
10 hang September 90. The court di-
rected Sheriff North TO take the con-
demned man to Birmingham for safe
keeping until the date of his execu-
lion. When this became noised about
the neighbors of the woman, mostly
farmers and planters from SPRING
Vile, organized for the purpose of
taking the negro from the sheriff and
lynching him.
The court house was speedily sur
rounded and the leaders of the mob
demanded that the sheriff surrender
the negro. The plucky officer replied
that the prisoner had been committed
to his custody for safe-keeping and
that he would promptly shoot the
first man that set foot in the court
house. After a hasty consultation o
member of the mob dashed up the
court house steps, firing revolver.
A general fusilade followed, over
100 shots being fired. The sheriff $
force fired through the windows and
doors and the mob retreated, firing
back as it went. Walter Blankenship
was shot through the head with a
Winchester ball. Arthur Blankenship
was shot in the head and shoulders
with buckshot. Both will die. A boy
named Handy was shot in the head.
A heavy rain came up and the mob
sought shelter in the nearby stores.
The officers took advantage of this
lull and spirited the negro away in
charge of two special deputies. He
was gotten safely aboard freight
train for Birmingham.

FRANCE OUT WITH TURKEY
N. Constans. French Minister. says sultan
Broke His Promise.

Constantinople. Aug. 22.-The
French ambassador. NJ. Constans, has
notified the sultan's first secretary
that all diplomatic relations between
France and Turkey are broken off and
that the ambassador has informed his
government to this effect.
NJ. Constans communicated direct
with the sultan because the latest
negotiations were transacted with the
sultan personally. The ambassador
iustifies his action on the ground that
the sultan broke his direct, personal
promise, given to NJ. Constans at an
audience in the Yieliz palace Thurs
day, regarding the purchase of the
quays and the settlement of the dis
puted French claims. The foreign
minister also gave formal assurances
that the agreement would be carried
out, so in view of this double breach
NJ. Constans held that it is impossible
for France to continue diplomatic re-
lationS with Turkey.

ACCOUNTS ARE Perfect.


Des Moines, Aug. 22.-Philip IL.
Skinner and William ii. Hedges, the
expert accountants appointed by the
executive council, have practically
completed the examination of the ac-
counts in the board of control office.
Their report will be filed with the
council in a short time. 1t will show
the accounts of the board are in o
perfect condition.
The experts are greatly pleased at
the condition of things in the board
of control office. There are some
details of the system of accounting
said Mr.. Skinner, that might per-
haps be eliminated. but it is ques-
tionable whether they could be done
away with and at the same time the
same moral effect as now on the war
dens and superintendent could be
preserved.
THE system is perfect. / doubt if
three men could be found in the state
who would be more competen- and
would transact the affairs of the
board more tremendously than they.
There is absolutely no politics in it.
Part of the employees in the boards
office are democrats and part repub-
licans. They are selected solely with
regard to merit so far as l can ascer-
tain. The system of buying supplies
through bidding is a means of effect
ing a great saving to the state, and
at the same time the quality of the
food, particularly the meats, that is
provided for the inmates of the in
stitutions, is better than you or !
buy on the market for our own use.
| The board is in close touch from its
Office here with all the affairs of the
! institutions. If a dozen spools of
thread are bought for an institution,
| the board can tell from its Office here
just how many spools ought to be
on hand from the time of the pur-
chase until the goods are consumed.
The only thing needed to make the
board of control law perfect is to
have it extended so that all the in
sane and dependent now in the coun-
| ty institutions are cared for in state
institutions and under the board of
controls supervision. / doubt
whether there is state in the union
that has a system superior to the
| one in Iowa"
