The winter has set in and danger from revo- lutionary bands is over, yet the Turk ish authorities seem to think the time has come to act. In the face of prom ises of free pardon to those who re- turned to. their homes, the Christian villagers have been shockingiy tortured to make them betray alleged concealed depots of arms or give information re- sarding the working of the Macedonian committee.
 The bastinado has been frequently employed until the victims were crip- pied for life. their feet being beaten to a pulp by the Turkish soldiers. Peas ants were also hung by their heels to the ceiling and boiling hot eggs were putin their arm pits. Even the priests were not spared and the troops openly plundered the peasants who are being driven to despair.

St Louis, Mo. Novemb Der 2S.-CharleS F. Kelly. former speaker of the city council, known as the house of dele- gates, was the most badly wanted of the members of the coterie known as the combine" indicted on charges of bribery in connection with the passage of the general lighting bill. Kelly was wanted because it is charged he han dled the S47 800 bribe money, which ac- cording to the evidence had been distri- buted among the nineteen members of the combine.
 Where did this money come from ?' That was the question the grand jury wanted answered, and believing that Kelly could furnish the answer he was indicted on September Sth. He was Gt was made against him. A deputy sner- fir told him he was wanted. Kelly asked permission to run over to ths council chamber to attend to an inn portant matter, saying. If you need me before I get back telephone me at the house of delegates
 That was the last seen of him by any officers of the law until his arrest in Philadelphia today

London. November 23.-The associat- ed press learns that important steps were taken in London today with a view to satisfying ell the financial and diplomatic claims by foreign powers and bondholders against Venezuela. T. is maintained that if the contemplated action meets with approval Germany and Great Britain will have no cause to take the vigorous steps now con templated The details of the suggest ed settlement have not been cOmmuni- catad to the European governments aS yet. Their gist will be made known first to the United States. probably to- morrow. The medium of the cOmmunI- cation is one of the most important AnglO-American bankers.
 Venezuela's propositions were men toned to Ambassador Choate today. but pending the result of the direct representations at Washington no ac- ton will be taken by the embassy to- wards suggesting that Venezuela be given time to submit her proposals.
 The new developments in the crisis. which is regarded as hourly growing more serious, is due to the arrival In Europe of a secret delegation from the Venezuelan government empowered t0 deal with the outstanding liabilities If that republic.
 Until a suitable plan could be ar ranged it was thought advisable tl communicate with the foreign minis. ters at Caracas, with whom relations have become so strained. Sucn q plan has now. in the belief of the delcg Ition been arrived at, and through the Anglo

MISSING STEAMERS
 FATE IN DOUBT
The Bannockburn Supposed to Be
 Ashore North of Lake Superior.

Montreal. November 2S.-News from various sources received here today re- garding the missing steamer Bannocll- burn. has inspired the hope that her crew of twenty men may be safe ashore somewhere on the mainland north of Michipicoten Island While some doubt still exists, the company officials are confident that the crew es- caped. although the Bannockburn is believed here to be a wreck on the rocky north shore or Lake Superior.
 The first news came in the form of a telegram from Chicago stating that the BannoCkburn was asnore on the main- land, north of Michipicoten island. There was great rejoicing here at Kingston where most oi the crew halls from.
 A later dispatch from Sault Ste Marie cast some doubt on the news from Chicago. It was stated that the steamer Strathoona had passed within four miles of the island, but saw noth- Ing of the wreck.
 It was pointed out by the steamship officials. however. that while the 500" dispatch stated that the Bannockburn was not ashore on the island. the other adVlces were to the effect that the boat was on the mainland directly north Of the mainland. It would thus be impossible, they said for a vessel to pass to the south of the island with out sighting the wreck. A later mes sage from the Chicago agents of the company stated that the wreck had been sighted by the Canadian steamer Germanic.

the inability of shipyards to obtain a sufficient supply of skilled labor, and. in some cases, strikes. Other causes have contributed to the result The depart ment has recently taken steps to re- move, as far as practicable, any grounds of delay over which it can exercise control, and has notified con tractors that they will be held to ac- cOuntability for failure to push forward the work of construction with due dili- gence, if such failure shall occur. and particularly for any delays which may at any time be caused by preference being given to private over public work
 In the case of the torpedo boats and the destroyers, the contractors have assigned as an additional reason for delay that the contracts for their con struction were so eXacting that com pliance with them has been well nigh impossible.

American banker the attitude Of the United States will be asCe5jaIned, be- side the state department will be put in a position to be able to judge of the Venezuela's offer and her good faith in the matter.
 It is expected that President Castro has had an opportunity of taking up the question of national finances, but while he himself was engaged in sCp- pressing the revolution he sent to Eur ope the secret delegation referred 10 with a view of accomplishing what was regarded as impossible of execution at Caracas.
 The details are carefully guarded. but the associated press is in a position to announce that the main feature is . unifactiOn of all the outstanding gov ernment and government guaranteed loans on a basis of security much greater than has been hitherto offered.
 It Is strenuously denied that the present movement is due to any desire on the part of Venezuela to spar for time with Great Britain and Germany, and in proof of this it is pointed oU[ that the secret mission left Venezuela before her relations with Great Britain and Germany had assumed the present acute aspect.
 Should the United States governments give it's moral support the plan will be submitted to the American bankers. The Venezuelan delegation believes that it is not too late to secure the neceS- sary facilities from Europe to bring about Q settlement satisfactory to all parties concerned.

FENCES MUST COME DOWN.
Says Colonel Mosby, Speaking of the
 Preserves of Big Cattle Companies.


 Preserves of Big Cattle Companies. Omaha, Neb., November 2S-Colonel John s. Mosby, special land agent Of the government, who has been called here to testify before the federal grand jury now in session. says: There will be bloodshed out in Nebraska over that fence matter before it is done, but propose to have the fences torn down if l have to send a cavalry force there to do it.
 President Roosevelt" continued Col onel Mosby, has assured me that the fences would be removed. He said. This thing must stop or there will be bloOdshed over it, and the president knows just as much about this west ern land question as any one in the country, too. for he has lived in the west q umber of years.
 Just as soon as l get through this grand jury work here I will go out to Alliance and look after the Standard Cattle company. That firm probably has more land fenced in in Nebraska than any two people, and l must loox to it.

POOR COMFORT.
Cold Water Drinker Finds a Relief in
 POstUm Coffee.

Our American people. who are nerv- ous and overstrained, would never drink coffee if they knew how well and clear-headed they would be without it.
 When I was a little child" says Miss M. D'Alt of Topeka, Kan, "I com menced the drinking of coffee. Natur- ally nervous, it made me as the years went on, q most miserable wretch, all ways in an unnatural state of excite ment. l found, as l grew older, that I would at times stagGer as a drunken person. It was coffee, for l had no de- sire to drink anything in liquors.
 My health was very bad and my brother and I were talking O; quitting coffee, when I was stricken with ty- phoid fever. Upon my recovery, my brother wisely allowed me no coffee and said if I wished to be well again, must stop it's use.
 For a number of years, cold water was my only drink. but this was poor comfort until about three years ago a package of POstum Food Coffee was left at our house. We prepared it as directed and found a wholesome, deli cious drink; more than this, it has strengthened me without causing those terrible after effects formerly left upon me by coffee.
 I recommended Postum to all my friends and in my varied experience, find it a safe drink without effect or the nerves and the only one which witf me has filled a long felt want"
 Many people who have stopped drinking coffee because of it's effect or the nerves, will find the pure fOoC drink. Postum, a beverage that wheI | properly made touches the spot. please' ] eye and palate and fills the vacznc. as no other drink can.
