THE CARTER CASE.
Defease Files Demurrers ReRarding
Securities Held Up.


SAVANNAH, Ca. Nov. BIN the
United States court here answers and
dcmurrers were filed by the defendants
In the ease of the United States versus
Oberlin NJ. Carter and others. This Is
the case in which the government has
proceeded to hold up certain securities
and other property held In the name Of
Oberlln NJ Carter or those closely assO-
ciated with him.
Ex Captain Carter. Lorenzo ID. Carter
and Stanton |. Carter filed demurrers
alike. The affidavit of ex-Captain Car.
ter is dated at Leavenwortli. Kan. Oct.
%. 1t Is cOntendetl that the govern
ment has made no case that entities 1t
to an equity or relief and that the bill
contains no matter Of equity whereon
the court Gun grant decree or give any
relief.
1t appears upon the face Of the bill,
says the answer. that there is another
suit pending for the same matter be-
tween the same parties. The discovery
sought in the bill is in aid OF Il criminal
suit and not In aid of suit of civil
nature There are several causes in the
bill, and II the complainant is entitled
to relief 1t should have sued at law up
on the several causes. The defendant,
therefore. demurs to the bill and asks
the judgment of the court whether he
shall be compelled to make further an
swer and prays to he dismissed with
his costs and charges most wrongfully
sustained.
The answer of the Edison Electric
Illuminating company shows that on
its books when it was the Brush Flee
tric Light company Oberlin NJ. Carter
appeared as the owner Of fifty shares
of its capital stock, six shares of which
were transferred to him June 8, 1895,
| six shares June D. 1896 fifteen shares
June ~, 1895, and twenty-three shares
, Oct. J, 1898. all of which were trans.
ferred by Carter JanN ~. 1899, since
which date no stock has been owned
by Carter to the defendants knowl-
edge: that, except rs stated, the de-
fendant Is a stranger to all the matters
and things In the plaintiffs bill. The
defendant denies all manner of unlaw-
full combinations and cOnfederacy
wherewith It Is by the bill Of the COM
plainant charged.
The answer Of the Savannah BreW-
ing company shows that on June l,
1894, there was issued to Carter certiti-
!
capital stock and June %, 1905, certifi-
cate. No. 467 was issued 10 him for thir.
teen shares The stock Is still in the
name of Oberlin NJ. Carter on the COM
pany's books. The rest of the answer
is similar to that Of the Edison Elec-
tric company.
All of the above answers and demur-
rers We're filed by Walter q. Charlton,
attorney for the defendants.

FRANCE AND TURKEY

In RumOred.

PARIS. Nov. 5--AftGx a speech de-
l!vered by the foreign minister. M.
Delcasse, the chambcr Of deputies h,ss
sustained by vote of 800 to II the
governments action toward Turkey
Though the government has not
given out the present destination OF tn"
French feet. ii is known that Admiral
Caillard is headed for some Greek Is
land, probably syria, one of the Cycla'
ds>.
Syra, which is 1900 miles from Tou-
lon, lies about POO miles from the ELL
trance to the Dardanellcs, leading 10
Constantinople. 1t Is 125 miles from
Mltylene. a rich Turkish island off the
coast Of Asia Minor 1t Is 100 miles
from Smyrna, the chief commercial
emporium of west Asia. which port, a
high French government official mas
hinted, the feet may seize for the pur-
pose of collecting the customs until the
French claims, indemnity and punitive
damages are collected. 1t is 2oO miles
from salonika. the most important port
Ill European lufkGN.
The sultnn evidently assumes that
the French have designs OH one or all
Of those points. so he has planted
mines in the Dardanelles, ordered
Mitylene, Smyrna and SalOnka pre-.
pared for defense and comma ndcd that
two army corps be modified.
Admiral Calllard left Toulon with
seven first class lighting ships and will
pick up several more on the way. He
will have at least ten and possibly
thirteen when he arrives at his desti-
nation.
He will have under his command
two huge battleships Of 1l.26O tons.
carrying four II inch guns besides
quick firing weapons; three armored
cruisers and several torpedo boat de-
stroyers and torpedo boats.
A report from Constantnople says
that the porte has demanded of Great
Britain that she fulfill the terms Of the
London convention of 1878 and protect
The sultans Asiatic possessions from
French attack.
The Paris correspondent Of The Daily
Mail snys he understands that dis
patches have been received at the
French capital announcing that Admi-
raj Caillard's division of the French
Mediterranean squadron has arrived at
Smyrna and seized the customs.

The officers of the company said yester-
day that they were firm in their deter

count of the shortage Of cores. and
there is fear that many Of the rnOlders

blast furnaces In the Pittsburg district
and the Mahoning and Shenango val

for want of coke. The car and motive
