 New York, Sept. 14-The grand jury to-day returned another indictment against Sam Parks. the walking dele gate, making the fifth indictment found against him. On one indictment Parks has been found guilty. The indictment to-day charged Parks with the extor- tion of $500 from the Tiffany Studios on Fourth avenue. , ..s ,s..&
 The indictment was found in affidayits made by Louis Sehmitt, the foreman of the studios, and other witnesses.
 Parks had been notified of the addi- tional indictment and before a warrant could be served upon him, accompanied by John J. Byrne, William s. Devery' s nephew, he went to the district attor- ney's office.
 On December 31, 1902, 1t is alleged, the men working on the buildings for the Tiffany concern stopped work and upon MT. Schmitt inquiring the cause he. swears he was told to Ego and see Parks" IA

TURKISH SUCCESSES.
Reported to state Department by sul-
 tnn,s Minister.

washington, Sept. 14.--Chekib Bey, the Turkish minister, called at the state department to-day and had an inter- view with Acting Secretary Adee. A cablegram received to-day from his government told of fierce encounter which took place yesterday near Kesrie between Turkish troops and Bulgarian brigands, in which over a hundred of the latter were killed and large num- Der taken prisoners. The dispatch also said that quantities of arms, ammuni- tion and dynamite bombs were captur- ed. The minister informed MT. Adee that the operations of the Turkish troops recently has led to the capture of a large number of Bulgarian bri- gands and that a state of panic exists among them in consequence of the de- termination of the sultan to suppress their lawless acts
 In the encounter yesterday many of the brigands escaped while others sur- rendered. The minister believes that yesterdays conflict will have the effect of restoring order in that section. He regards as significant the fact that the Bulgarian revolutionary society resid- ing in the Turkish province, which had been supplying the brigands with arms and ammunition, have applied to the sultan for a pardon. In the light of the gravity of the offenses. committed, the minister thinks that it is not probable that the request will be granted. He represented matters as Beirut as quiet.

It has been years since there was a situation so serious.
 The damage to crops has been enor- nous, some placing it in the millions.
 Beginning with the heavy rain Friday night and early Saturday morning, there has been an almost continuous downpour over Minnesota, Iowa and the Dakotas and sections of Nebraska. The widespread damage of the first storm has been followed by incessant washouts and in every direction tracks are in bad condition and the operation of trains requires, the utmost precau- ton. Operating officials believe the first storm would be followed by lull during which they could repair dam ages. There was no Hull. and wrecking crews, bridge and construction forces, track patrols and section employees have been constantly on duty since.
 Late to-day reports from the northern part of the state showed that rains were general Southwest of St. Paul worse conditions prevail and through most of Iowa Tn southern Minnesota and eastern Wisconsin it was raising. The violence of the first big storm was lacking hut the rain was even more dangerous than that of Friday night because it is steadily eating away road- beds and entertainments, undermining the tracks and swelling the rivers and streams Another sudden and heavy rain, conservative operating officials said, os itself would cause a loss of more than a million dollars.
