Socialists to be Banished

SOCIALISTS to De BanlSned
and Declared 'Infamous."
Berlin, Oct. 21.-The new antt-so-
cialistic law is ready in, the kaiser
portfolio, but whether Chancellor
Count Won Buelow will allow himself
to be persuaded to lay it before the
reichstag this winter is yet undecided.
Won Buelow is trying to induce the
emperor not to add to the already
overwhelming majority the socialists
enjoy. He is pointing to Bismarck,
who at one time fought both the So
ciallsts and the Catholic church by
suecial laws, only to add to the
strength of one party and insure the
glorif1cation Of the other.
Kaisers Proposed Measure.-The
kaiser's special law intended to
eradicate socialism proposes: First,
radical abridgement of free speech by
word of mouth and in print; second,
Punishment of all socialistic politicians
'as public enemies; third, declaring
| ISOLATION with Christians and patriots.
Punishment to Siberta.-The kaiser
is making personal efforts to induce
the car to allow the German govern
ment to deport political riscreants to
Siberia, where they are to be treated
like Russians, supposedly in the same
! class. Nicholas is inclined to grant
the favor said the kaiser to one OF
his friends recently, land why not ?
He is as much interested in suppress
| ing socialists as I. We will fix mat
tiers up early in November when we
meet in Wiesbaden." There may
| even be treaty between the King OF
Prussia and the Gar of the Mosco-
vites to that effect, for up to the time
of the revolution, of 184S Prussian
subjects were sometimes banished tc
| Siberia by the kings orders, but
whether it was done under a private
understanding between the sovereigns
or according to treaty, is not now
known. Before 1848, the kings OF
Prussia were absolute monarchs like
those Of the Russian empire.

A FINE AUDITORIUM
What M. W. Savage Is Making Of
the Old Exposition
Hall.
Tt Will Be Artistically Finished
and Will Seat 5000 or
,2,700.

When L. A. McIvor, the decorator,
gets thru with the International aud
itorium, it will bear little resemblance
to the old exposition hall.
Certain plans are under way for the
transformation Of the interior which
will make 1t a gem of an auditorium
two auditoriums in fact-one large
and one small. In proportion as the
auditorium is patronized 1t will be
improved. M. w. Savage, the proprie-
tor, does not intend to make money
out Of the rentals, but will turn the
profits back in improvements. AS
much will be done this winter as the
proceeds will take care Of The pillars
will be removed, the floor: renewed
and the parquet floor inclined. Other
radical changes will be made next
summer If the returns this season
warrant.
In the first place the auditorium
has been made perfectly safe. At the
| direction Of KEGS & Colburn the
posts under the entire floor were ex-
amined. In some cases there were re-
placed, or where only slight damage
was evident the tops were sawed off
and replaced with iron caps. The
| building was new, because extra
braces which were left off for some
| unaccountahle reason when the struc-
! ture was built have been put in.
The contract has been let to make
| the glass ceiling absolutely water
! proof. The main exit has. been
| widened to eighteen feet. The Ort-
man street exit has been widened to
sixteen feet and made straight. Thus
two exits are provided, one on Bank
street and one1on Ortman. From the
galleries are built four wide stair.

King Alphonso's Cannibal
Subjects Conquered.


Madrid, Oct. 21.-Spain has just
emerged VIGOROUSLY out Of war. The
scene of hostilities was the island Of
Fernando Pc, Bay of CAMERON. The
latter belongs to Germany, and it APP
pears that one of Williams subjects
invaded the island without escort to
hunt elephants. The natives imme-
diately pounced upon the white man,
tortured him, cut him to pieces and
ate him up. To make the act the
more atrocious, the Prussian was OBJ
liged to look on while parts Of his
body were devoured, first the leg, then
an arm, and SO forth. The case being
reported, company of Spaniards set
out to punish the natives who re-
ceived the soldiery, while hiding be-
hind trees and shrubbery, with a rain
of arrows. However, the Spanish
Mausers cut thru the trees as If they
were butter and the blacks had to give
in. Their chiefs solennly asked the
Spanish government to excuse their
.unwarranted interference with his
German majesty's subject, and the
Span1ards, not to be outdone In gem
erosity, were content to burn "only''
five villages, including the old women
and men left there.

Children Used for Targets

OScu 1OI IdfSCtSs
Constantinople, Oct 21.-The sultan
ordered the arrest of the wife of lei
sula Bey, general of infantry, for
showing to friends a letter in which
her husband in the field in Macedonia
makes the following statements:
The cruelties and atrocities Of
which our men are guilty make me
ashamed of the uniform L wear.
Friends tell me that 1 have aged ten
years-no wonder, the women and chill
dren murdered by our soldiers in
droves, will not let me sleep at night.
My own corps 1 hold in subsection,
having threatened to shoot instanter
every man guilty of violating or hurt
ing women and children, but the ma
jority Of generals and captains are not
SO considerate. They allow their men
to do murder and worse, waging war
chiefly OH women and little ones, too
small to do harm even in their
thoughts. And nightly, as I seek rest,
the bodies of the murdered appear in
my dreams, crying for mercy and
cursing me for what our soldiers are
doing"
The Bey's wife was carried to the
palace and incarcerated in the
dungeons Of the police building there.
Out Of this building very few return on
foot More often their bodies are
found in the harbor, sewed up in
BACKS or coarse linen.
Atrocities Drive Bey Insane.-A
private letter received from Thessa-
loniki reports that Zeisula Bey has
gone mad on account Of the scenes of
slaughter he was forced to witness.
1t appears that the general, after
suffering a slight defeat at the hands
of the Macedonians, retreated to the
village of Aruency, where the avaunt
guard Of his troops had arrived be-
fore him. The general was Mortified,
upon turning into the main street, to
see a hundred or more children hang
ing on trees, telegraph poles and bal
comics, his soldiers shooting at them
and offering prizes to those Kidding a
body with bullets without killing the
child for certain number Of minutes,
while the parents of the little ones
bound and gagged, were forced to
witness this game Of war;
Coming suddenly uopn this awful
scene, made such an impression on
the hey, that he became a raving
maniac. Lashing his horse to a gal
1op, he tried to cut the ropes by
which the children were hung with
his sword but finding that the chill
dren were beyond saving, he dashed
into the rows Of soldiers and dealt
blows right and left. Before he
could be overpowered, he Drained six
men and wounded over fifty others.

$4,000 FlRSTDAY'S SALE
Public Sale Of Seats for PATHS New
York Concerts Follows the
'r Auction. ". :

An account of the auction sale of
boxes and choice seats for the two
concerts to be given by Nine. Patti in
New York city at Carnegie hall, next
week, was recently given in T h e
journal l. It will be recalled that
1915 was paid for the first choice of
a box and $1O5 for the first choice Of
a parquet seat. <.
The seats remaining when the auo-
ton sale was over and which amount
ed to about half the seating capacity
Of the hall, were put on sale a few
days later. In spite Of the fact that
so many desirable seats had been dis
posed of before the public sale opened.
long line of people began gathering
at the box office at Steinway's on
Forty sixth street long before the ma
jority Of New Workers had come down
to breakfast. When the box office
opened at 9 o'clock the line had ex-
tended way down the street and as far
as the crossing Of the New York Cen
trail railroad tracks. By 10 o'clock 1T
had gone around the corner Of Madi-
son avenue and considerably down
that thorofare.
It was gratifying evidence to Rob-
prise, that the popularity of the great
diva is as secure as ever in the hearts
Of the American public.
Two men were kept busy dealing out
tickets and they managed by 5 o'clock,
when the box office closed. to dispose
of about $4,000 worth and still a
couple Of hundred people were left un-
satisfied. The pleasant part of this is
that 1t assures two Of the biggest audi
ences that Nine. Patti has ever sung to
in New York. The ground floor was
entirely exhausted the first day and
most Of the boxes. as well as most of
the balcony and gallery. There is no
doubt that by the day of the first con-
cert, seats will be at a high premium.
| Spectators hung about the offices
all day devising means by which they
could get a. few seats for their own
use, but they were closely watched,
and if they secured any, the seats were
very few.
The boom with which the Patti sale
has gone off evidently assures for the
great singer the biggest season she
has ever known in her life, for if it is
| the biggest in America, Of course l. is
| the biggest anywhere.
No doubt the conviction that Patti
will never. be heard in America again is
Responsible for a large part of the in
terest displayed. Those who do not
hear her. upon her coming tour will
never listen to the most marvellous;
voice that has ever been put In hui
man throat. PATHS appearance In
Minneapolis is scheduled for the even;
ing Of Dec. 80 in the International
