of the incorrectness Of the announced as:

Minister Leishman takes a serious view

In a state of unrest, and in some parts the

Apprehends Serious Trouble.
Minister Leishman apprehends serious
trouble. and indicates his belief that Ameri-

Mussulman population
The minister's report confirmed informa-
ton received by President Roosevelt and
Secretary Hay from unofficial sources. For
these reasons it was decided by the Presi-

proceed to Turkish waters in accordance
with his original orders notwithstanding
the inaccuracy of the report of the assault
on Consul Magelssen.

In any event that was regarded by this
government only as an incident. The fact
that the assault upon the consul was not

BAD BANK STATEMENT

NEW YORK. August 29.-Prices moved
In a sluggish and irregular manner on
small opening dealings. Advances of v in
Tennessee Coal and Republic Steel pre-
ferred we're the largest changes.
The demand for stocks was too scant
to support prices, and there was a slight
easing of all around Union Pacific, Atch-
ison and Amalgamated absorbed the most
of the limited dealings and also showed
the widest price movement.
There was light professional selling on
an early impression that the bank state
ment would not be as good as foretold and
slight hardening when this impression
was confirmed by the small cash increase
and the considerable loan increase shown
by the statement. Prices rose fractionally
over last night in some cases. Tennessee
Coal gained a point. The whole movement
was Insignificant. Among the specialties
Atchison preferred, Duluth. South Shore
and Atlantic preferred, Wheeling and Lake
Erie and Colorado Fuel rose point or
more. United States Rubber preferred 2,

Cotton Market.
NEW YORK, August 29.-The cotton
market opened firm at an advance of 6 to
10 points and during the early session ruled
very firm and fairly active, with prices soon
reaching a level net to ID points up on
the active months under aggressive bull
support and covering encouraged by the
higher Liverpool cables and the continued
slow movement
The weather map was generally favorable
again, and private crop accounts aside
from further reports Of damage as a result
of boil weevil and other insects, were of
satisfactory average, and this phase of the
situation encouraged some realizing on the
advance. Still the market yielded only
slightly, remaining steady to firm around
the higher level.
Estimated receipts of cotton at the ports:
Today. 800 bales. against last week and
1882 last year. For the week 5000 bales
against 1,4SS last week and 10S,960 last
year. Today's receipts at New Orleans
were 46 bales. against 2,54s last year, and
at Houston 119 bales. against 1923 last
year.

FURL BATTLE FLAGS
"FARCICAL AND EXPENSIVE
NAVAL GAMES DENOUNCED.
President Called Upon to Summon Q
Peace Conference Once In
Every Four Years

MYSTIC, Conn, August 29.-The Uni
versal Peace Union. at it's closing session
today. adopted a series OF resolutions of
convictions" The preamble says that
with all the encouragement on the demand
for peace I'VE are still confronted with OBJ
legations resting upon peace societies and
all advocates of peace to remove the causes
and abolish the custom of war"
The resolutions set forth that the duty of
the hour Is to overcome all conditions that
make war impossible by teaching the prin-
ciples Of peace and arbitration In schools
and universities. by practicing them in
every day life and by multiplying courts of
arbitration.
Build No Battle Ships.
The increase of the army and navy. the
building of battle ships for Turkey and
other foreign governments with all the
improvements of American genius, the far
cical and expensive playing of naval battles
on the coast of Maine and the unrestricted
sale of firearms. is viewed with alarm.
Lynchng is declared to be monstrous
peace breaker. and state and national legis-
lation looking to its suppression is de-
manded. Race hatred and pdejudice 10
pronounced a menace to peace.
IF there be uncomfortable passions in the
depraved intended victim of lynching," the
resolutions say, there is a remedy which
medical skill may well be called upon to
heal. as it would any other diseased con-
ditiOn; for the increase of sensual crmi-
nality affecting present morality and fu-
ture generation forces the suggestion that
this remedy, administered with wisdom and
the best surgical ability would be a pro-
lection to society and kindness and
mercy to the offender"
Hits the Newspapers, Too.
United plan and action to prevent the
petty jealousies and disagreements in gov
ernments from growing into national and
international contentious and wars should
be sought. and newspapers should not be
war makers by being sensational and I'M
warranted newsmongers. An international
relief fund to afford immediate relief of
suffering following disasters and corpora
tive feeling and concessions to avoid strikes
and lockouts are advocated.
A peace conference to be called by the
President every four years, looking to the
prevention of war, is favored The closing
conviction is that this country and Eng
land. (which by force of arms have con-
quered weaker nations. should make repar-
alton by the introduction of the best OF
their institutions and the gifts of liberty
and independence"

THE NUMBER SMALL.
But Few Applicants for Appointments
as Medical Inspectors.

The comparatively small number of APP
plicants for appointments as medical in
spectors of public schools is regarded at
the District building as somewhat surpris-
ing. These places will pay $500 per annum
and service will be required practically
only during the school year and on school
days. The daily work. too. it is expected,
will not occupy on an average more than
two and a half to three hours. In view
of these circumstances the fact that ap-
plicants must have had five years expe-
rience in the practice of medicine in the
District of Columbia and pass an examina-
ton to determine their fitness is not re-
garded as sufficient to deter physicians
generally from seeking appointments, and
the authorities are wondering where the
difficulty lies.

RAIN FOR FUTURITY
SIXTEENTH RACE STRONG IN
HEAVY GOING.
Hamburg Belle, Favorite, Has Been
Considered a Doubtful
Starter.

NEW YORK, August 29.-Two days Of
steady rain make the sixteenth .Futurity
today a race for two-year-olds strong in
heavy going. 50 o 10
This classic race will be run at Sleeps
head Bay. over a track so deep in mud
that it will take skilled eye to dlstin-
guish the soil-spattered silks Of the winner
of the six-furiong dash, which will claim
the attention of the racing world about 4
o'clock this afternoon.
At that hour the bugle will call to the
post nineteen Iwo-year-olds, all the best
that America can put forth. trained TO the
minute for the great event.
Several May Not Answer Call.
Several Of the nineteen will undoubtedly
not answer the call, their owners seeing
slight hope of the $4,000 prize and the
floral horseshoe at the end of that six
furlong stretch of mud.
Some may be drawn to save the $3.50 it
will cost to face the starter; others for fear
of injuring precious horsefesh over the
slippery course.
The stake, 1t is estimated will be worth
about 100000. of which nearly $780, 900 will
go to the winner, the rest being divided be-
tween the second and third horses.
Odds Were Uncertain.
The condition Of the track and doubt as
to the starting of some of the horses made
the odds very uncertain. Hamburg Belle,
the favorite. had been considered a doubt
full starter, but her trainer declared today
that she would positively not be scratched.
She carries only ia pounds, and should she
start her price will probably be to 1.
