LONDON-According to q Sofia tel
egram to the Times the Turkish re
pressive measures in Macedonia have
reached the utmost limits OF barbar
ism, and it is evident that it is the
intention to accomplish this by de-
grees the total extirpation of the Bull
garian population.
Within the last few days, says the
Times correspondent. twelve more
Christian villages have been handed
over to fire and sword and the women,
children and the aged have been mas
sacred indiscriminately Conveys OF
prisoners dispatched to Monastir have
been murdered by their escorts on the
way.
A private letter from foreign res.
ident in Monastir says even the local
TuRks are disgusted and mediate as
sassinating the consul in order to pro
woke European intervention.
The insurgents are doubtless taking
a terrible revenge and are executing
the revolutionary program to the let
ter. The reported concentration of
large Turkish forces in the Adrianople
district at MustafaPasha, Kisylagach
and other points on the Bulgarian
frontier is regarded with much appre-
hension in Sofia.
A special dispatch published this
morning gives a gloomy view of the
crisis in the Balkans. According to
reports from Constantinople a rumor
was current that war had already
been declared against Bulgaria II
was proved to be unfounded, but the
state of popular feeling is said to be
such that no other issue is regarded
as possible.
1t is further stated that although |
the Russian squadron was withdrawn
from India it continues to cruise near
the BOsphOrus.
1t is reported that several Italians |
have been murdeded by Turks in Is |
mid, a seaport in Asia Minor. fifty |

nople.

PRESIDENT is GRATlFIED.
Thankful That Consul MaeeIssen Es-

OYSTER BAY.-President Roose-
welt was notified Friday night by a
representative of the Associated Press
of the incOrrectness of the report that
Vice Consul William c. Magelssen at
Beyroot, Syria, had been assassinated
The president expressed gratifica-
ton that Consul Magelssen had es-
capped without injury from the assault
of the would-be murderer He an
nounced, however, that no change
would be made in the plans of this
government and that the European
squadron which he ordered to pro-
ceed Immediately to Beyroot, would
continue to its ordered destination.
1t can be said that the president
and Secretary of State Hay both re-
gard it advisable in view of the pres
ent state of unrest in Turkey, to
have American war vessels in Turk
ish waters
For several hours President Roose-
welt and Secretary of State Hay were
in confidence at Sycamore Hill. They
discussed every suggested phase of
the situation in Turkey. At the con-
clusion of the conference Secretary
Hay announced his intention of re-
turning Immediately to Washington,

Is Cancer Lncreasinn2

There is feeling of great uneasi-
ness in England over some statistics
that were recently published about the
increase Of cancer in Great Britain.
The death rate from that disease in
1890 was sIxty-eight persons in every
100000 inhabitants, but in 1900 it was
eighty-three in every 100000. Besides,
the ratio of deaths from cancer to
those from all other causes, among
persons over 80 years of age, was only
one out of twenty in 1890, but one out
o. twelve in 1900 These figures have
given rise to much alarm, but a con-
servative student of mortality says
that the increased rate is probably
due to the fact that vital statistics are
becoming more accurate every year
and are now gathered from places
from which no reports formerly came.

Minister Leishman Explains How
Error Came to Be Made-Correc

inston Officials Now Think DipIo

WASHINGTON.-A decidedly new
turn in the case of United States Vice
I Consul William Magelssen at Beyroot
Syria, who was reported to have been
assassinated last Sunday, developed
Friday night when it became known
! that the report was incorrect and that,
| although Mr.. Magelssen had been shot
| at, he had not been injured. This re-
port came to the State department in
dispatch from United States Minister
Leishman at Constantinople, who said
the mistake in making the original an
nouncement was due to a mistake in
translating the cipher message to the
minister. The dispatch from Mr..
Leishman followed closely on the same
subject which had been shown to the
prominent officials of the. government.
municated to the president at once at
Oyster Bay, but up to a late hour
nothing had been heard from him on
the subject at the State department.
Its contents were extremely crafty
ing to the officials of the government
here, as it relieved the situation of its
extreme tension. and leaves the way
open for an amicable and peaceful ad-
justment of the incident. Whether
or not orders will be given calling off
the proposed cruise of the European
squadron to Turkish waters is a mat
ter for future determination.
Acting Secretary Loomis declined to
make public the text of Minister Leish-
mans dispatch tonight, but he gave a
summary of its contents.
AS stated in the press dispatch it
showed that Mr. Magelssen had been
shot at by some person at the time I'M
known to the officials, but that he had
not been hit. The local Turkish Off
cials were prompt to express their re-
gret at the occurrence and were exert
ing themselves to apprehend the as
but thus far had been unsuc-
cessful ,
The minister's dispatch also said |
that Consul Ravendai had reported to !
him that some of the consuls located !
at Beyroot had reported to their gov
ernment that the situation at that |
place had become exceedingly unsafe:
that this condition of affairs had ex-
listed for some time and that some
thing ought to be done to relieve the
tension. The opinion was expressed
hat the attempted assassination of
Mr.. Magelssen would probably bring
matters to focus and some effort be
made to avoid further trouble.

NOTHING LATE FROM BEYROOT
Reports Not Confirmed Are That Min

WASHINGTON.-Other than the
adyices from Admiral Cotton announc
ing his departure with the cruisers
Brooklyn and San Francisco for Bey
root, there were no Developments in
the Turkish situation so far as Wash,
ington is concerned. No additional in
formation came from United States
Minister Leishman, Secretary Hay
saying he had not heard from our min
lister to Turkey Saturday
The orders to Admiral Cotton to
proceed to Beyroot will not be can
celed, it is authoritatively stated, un-
less the president so directs. Such
an order at this time, however, ap-
parenuy would not avail anything, as
the admiral is now on his way to
Turkey.
The Associated Press interview with
Chekib Bey, the Turkish minister, at
his summer home at Sayville, L. l.,
was topic Of almost general dis
cussion in official circles That the
minister is manifestly perturbed over
the situation of affairs in Turkey is
fully realized here.
His uneasiness over the presence of
an American fleet in Turkish waters,
lest it be taken by the revolutionists
as an evidence of the American gov
ernment's sympathy with their cause,
it is thought, will not be a strong
enough reason for its withdrawal.
The administration regards it as
sacred duty to see that adequate and
prompt assistance and protection
should be given American interests
I'm the disturbed districts and for this
reason feels justified in having the
warships sent to Turkey.
Contrary to expectation, Chekib
Bey had not arrived in Washington up
so o'clock Sunday night and inquiry
at the leading hotels failed to dis
close that he had telegraphed that
he was coming A number of dis
patches are awaiting his arrival here
some of the dispatches |
are from Constantinople and Secre- |
tary Hay will grant the minister an |
audience if he comes to the city.
With the departure of the cruisers

root. as announced by Admiral Cot
ton to the navy department, the en-
tire European squadron is now on it's
way to the Turkish seaport.
