TELL. A TALE OF HORROR.
Unconfirmed Reports of Massacres
in City of Monastir.
Urgent Demands Made for Reinforce
ments at AdrianOple-Insurr
tien Spreading Eastward.

Sofia, Aug. 24.-Unconfirmed but per-
sistent rumors are circulating of alarm
ing massacres at Monastir.
Constantinople, Aug. 24.-The insur-
rection in the vilayet of Adrianople,
which started in the subdivision of Kirk
Kilisseh, 90 miles from Adrianople, is
spreading eastward. Several villages
have been burned by insurgents in the
neighborhood of Iniadi, off which place
the Russian squadron is anchored, and
urgent demands have been sent to Adri-
anople for reenforcements.
The proposal to send the Austrian and
Russian military attaches to Monastir
to gather facts about the instruction
has been dropped for the present, as the
proposed visit is not considered op-
perfume.

The quartermaster, Charles Burrows,
said in his report:
A proposition to admit sons of vet
Grams into the grand army posts was
strongly supported, but after an extend

jority. The encampment adopted a res
olution requesting congress to pass a
bill pensioning all veterans who have
reached the age of 81 years.
Business Is Completed.
The Grand Army veterans and the la
dies of the auxiliary bodies completed
their business Friday, and the remain
der of their time in this state was de-
voted to sightseeing. The national
encampment met in executive session to
receive the reports of the committee on
resolutions and to transact final bust
ness. The Women's Relief Corps and the
Ladies of the Grand Army proceeded
with the election of officers, also in Sc
cret session. Several thousand visit
ors crossed the bay at Oakland, where
they were entertained on the shores OF
Lake Merritt. At night there was a big
camp fire at the Mechanics Pavilion.

COMMENT on THE RACE.
London Press Believe Shamrock I'LL
Incapable of Capturing
Americas Cup.

London, Aug. 22.-All the press COM
Torrance evidences the growing convic-
ton that she is incapable of recapturing
the Americas cup under any weather
conditions. The afternoon papers
claim that Thursdays abortive race
showed nothing of the respective merits
of the two boats, but they admit that
the performance of the challenger did
not fulfill the expectations of her be-
havior in light wind and say that Capt.
Barr seems to have shown smarter sea-
manship.
The suggestion is made that, in view
of the repeated wind disappointments of
Sandy Hook, the New York Yacht club
might try to find a more satisfactory
course.
New York, Aug. 22.-The Reliance
Friday cast loose from her moorings,
set her jib and staysail and stood out
into the bay for sail. Shortly AFTER
ward Shamrock III. hoisted her MAIN
sail with the apparent intention of 60
ing out for sail stretching. Reliance.
| after several short bitches and maneu-
vers in Sandy Hook bay, returned to
her moorings. The challenger left her
anchorage, set jib and staysail and on
the starboard tack headed out to the
| point.
The Shamrock III. had been out less
than half an hour when she returned to
her moorings.

THE. RULE APPLIES TO ALL.
President Enunciates Policy as to-
Government Employees.
No Discrimina alton Because of Men,

Labor ORGANIZATION.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug 22-President
Roosevelt has made applicable to all
departments of the government service
the principle he enunciated at the time
he reinstated William A. Miller to the
position in the government printing Of
flee from which Miller had been dis
missed because of a disagreement with
the Bookbinders' union. The presi-
dent has plainly stated to the members
OF his cabinet that that principle is to
indicate the policy of the president" in
similar cases. The president has au-
thorized the publication of a letter
which was sent to each member of his
cabinet on the 22d of July. The letter
was signed by Mr.. Barnes, the acting
secretary to the president, and is as fol-
lows:
my dear sir: The president directs
me to send you herewith for your in
formation, copies of two letters sent to
Secretary Cortelyou with reference to
the government printing Office, which
define the attitude of the administration
in connection with the subject dis
cussed. They are sent to you for your
information and guidance, as they indi-
cate the policy of the president in this
NATTER
The letters to Secretary Cortelyou
were written on July 13 and H. The SAIL
ent sentence of the first letter was:1
There is no objection to the employees
OF the government printing Office consti-
tuting themselves into union if they
so desire, but no rules or resolutions
OF that union can be permitted to over
ride the laws of the United States, which
it is my sworn duty to enforce
In the letter of the 18th the president
quoted the finding of the anthracite
strike commission regarding the en-
ployment of labor as follows: 1T is adj
judged and awarded that no person shall
be refused employment or in any way
| Disseminated against on account Of
membership in any labor organization,
and that there shall be no discrimina-
ton or interference with any employe
who is not member of any labor Or
ganization by members of such organi-
| Zation'
Concerning the principle the presi-
| dent wrote: 1T is, of course, mere ele-
mentary decency to require that all the
government departments shall be
handled in accordance with the princi-
pie thus clearly and fearlessly enunci-
ated."

TRIAL NEARING CLOSE.
Public Interest in Humbert Case at
Paris Is Intense-Labori Con- =
tinues Address,.

Paris, Aug. 22.-Public interest is
growing more intense as the Humbert
trial is nearing it's close and the crowds
at the palace Of justice were much aug
mented Thursday. Although the gen.
eral expectation is that verdict will be
reached by night, the court officials be-
lieved that the advocate general will
reply to Maitre Labori, leading counsel
for the defense, thus pOstponing the
verdict until Saturday. Among those
who have reserved places near the
Judges was Sonora Castro, wife of the
president of Venezuela, who was &C.
companied by the Venezuelan minister.
Maitre Labori continued his address for
the defense, urging that the larger
creditors had acted through attorneys,
who should be held responsible, while
the small creditors would have been
paid if the Rente Viagere had not been
wrecked through the premature prose-
cution of the Humberts.
Maitre Labor caused considerable
sensation by bitter denunciation of M.
Cattaui, the money-lendeB, for prose-
cutting the Humberts, and, incidentally,
mentioning NJ Waldeck- Rousseau's and
M. Valle's part in the prosecution, he de-
clared the political parties leaders had
become degenerate. M. Vale, counsel
pointed out, first acted as attorney
against the Humberts, and afterwards
became minister of justice, supervising
their prosecution. M. Cattaui, he as
serted. belonged to that class which is
bringing dishonor on France and seek
ing to gain all through the use of money,
thus corrupting the public administra-
ton.
Advocate Clunot followed in defense OF
Emile Daurignac. The trial was then ad-
journed until Saturday.
