In general, too, the whole country
has increased in wealth, and as this
has come about. and the intricacies Of
civilization have multiplied, room has
been made for more OF the professions

has the ministry. 1t seems in these
small places that as more money is
accumulated which ought to go to the
strugglings ministers already in the

collecting to the good OF those already
there, to build two or three more debt

President Was in Danger.

OAKLAND, May l5.-Extreme dill
gence exercised by the local police de-
partment in guarding President Roose-
velt during his journey through and
brief visit in Oakland, was a subject
of much comment yesterday and this
extraordinary precaution is now ex.
planned by the fact, not heretofore
known to the public, of inform alton
received by the authorities OF a plot,
which, if carried out, would have
meant the assassination Of President
Roosevelt in this city.

Attempted y Suicide.

TACOMA, May l6.-In fit of des.
pondency Emma Phillips attempted to
commit suicide at Everett last night
She shot herself in the left breast, the
ball passing through the lung just
under the heart and coming out under
the shoulder. She will recover unless
a hemorrhage sets in.
The woman was married eight years
ago in Portland to Henry Phillips,
who is said to be serving a twenty.
year sentence for forgery in the Mon.
tana penitentiary. She had brooded
over this fact, together with her in
ability to properly support her four
year-old child.

worry was caused by the discovery by

Mistaken for "A pOIccat.

MATTOON, ILL.,, May l7.-Newton
Moore, prominent farmer of Coles
county, was shot and severely wounded
in a peculiar way this morning. He
had discovered polecat under his
barn, and, with his son, was making
an effort to kill the animal. He left
the boy on one side OF the building
and went to the opposide side, in.
structiny the lad to shoot when he
caught sight of the animal. When the
boy saw Mr.. Moore's eyes on the op.
posite side, he mistook them for the
eyes of polecat and discharged the
shotgun. The charge entered Mr..
Moore's face, and it is thought the in.
juries will prove serious.

Bulgaria Protests.

LONDON, May l5.-The correspon-
dent of the Times at Sofia cables as
follows: Bulgaria has called the at
tention of the representatives here of
the powers to the seventies practiced
by the Turkish authorities in Mace
donia, the outrages committed by the
armed Mohammed population and to
the secretary Of the proceedings Of the
Salonica court martial, which pre-
cludes consular intervention.
Nothing is known here OF the al.
legged Bulg garian note to the powers,
but if serious complications are to be
avoided, these matters must receive
the serious attention of the powers.
A state of terror prevails in Djuma,
Raslog, Melnik and karatova dis
tricts. Many villages are block AIDED
by Turkish troops and some have been
bonn barded and burned. The Bashi-
baZouks are assisting in the work of
destruction. Villagers have been ar
rested and others are fleeing to the
mountains.

Turkey is Worried.

CoNsTANT1NopLE, May l6.-The
Turkish authorities are disquieted by
the recent appearance Of Armenian
bands of revolutionists, coming from
Russia, in the districts of Bay azid
and Sasum, Armenia, and are adopt
ing vigorous measures to guard the
frontier. The Armenians cross in
small parties in the neigh borhOod OF
Bayazid and thence make their way
to the Sasum mountains, where they
are safe from pursuit.
1t is alleged here that the Russian
authorities of Kars, Asiatic Russia,
are aware Of the movement Of Armen.
ian revolutionists, but that they dc
not intend to interfere.
IL is believed that the appearance OF
these bands indicates revival o1
activity on the part OF the old Armen'
ian committees, who are understood
to be anxious to be in a position to
take advantage of possible cOmplica
tions arising from the Macedonia
situ alton, in which case the claims OF
the Armcn ans will be revived and the
same advantages gained by the Mace
domains from European Intervention
will be demanded for Armenia.

On Trail Of Dynamiter.

CHICAGO, May l4.-The trunk which
is believed to have carried the infer
nal machine found on the mbria 3
dock and which was shipped FRONT his
city on April 25, is now thought to

can Storage company of this city. On

NEW YORK, May l4.-Sailing lists
of half dozen transatlantic steam
ship lines have been found by detect
ives in the room of G. Rosseau, who,
it is alleged, was the sender of the in
fernal machine found at the Cunard
company's docks recently.
The fact has given rise to a theory
that Rosseau sailed for Europe Satur'
day Immediately after mailing the
warning letter to Police Commis ioner
Greene. The sailing lists found in
Rosseau's room were all folded in a
way to suggest that Saturdays sail
ings had been studied.
No railroad time tables were found
in the room and those boarders in the
house who know Rosseau best are
strongly of the opinion that he is now
in mid-ocean, en- route for some foreign
port. They think it possible that he
sailed on the Umbra.
On cabled instructions from the DO.
lice here, each of the steamers which
sailed eastbound Saturday will be
searched on arrival for the dyna.

Liverpool reports gave warning that
the day would be a lively one, as
sales OF spot cotton there reached fully
dollar bale higher than yesterday.
Liverpool stocks are smaller than for
a great many years and the consump-

rush at this news from Liverpool, the
orders coming mainly from the COM
