GEN. CHASE MAY BE RECALLED
FROM CRIPPLE CREEK COMMAND

Denver. Oct. 5.-The Republican this
morning says:
Atter two conferences held yesterday
between Governor Peabody and Briga-
pier General John Chase,it seems to
pave been pretty definitely settled that
General Chase will not return to the
Cripple Creek district as general in
command OF the troops. Neither Cen
eral Chase nor Governor Peabody
would give any intimation yesterday
after the conference as to Just what
had been the outcome of the meeting.
But there is scarcely doubt that Gen.
efn Chase has been relieved of his
command in the district His probable
successor will be Colonel Verdeckberg.
Inc policy over which General
Chase and Governor Peabody do
not agree and which may cause the
formers permanent recall, is said to be
relative to the conduct of the supplies
and other things which come into the
camp.
The immediate cause of all this dis
turbance came up over the pay rolls
which are now being prepared by Col
onel Gross. According to military
rules and regulations the pay rolls
must pass through the hands of the
brigade commander. who is General
Chase Colonel Gross. the paymaster
general of the army. did not see fit to
allow the general to see the pay rolls.
The break occurred In Camp Goldfield.
General Chase sent word to Colonel
Gross that he wanted to see the pay
rolls. Word was sent back by the
colonel that he was busy with them
and could not. send them over.

TURKS OPEN WAR
ON BULGARIANS

Sofia. Bulgaria, Oct. 5.-Serious news
has been received here from the from
tier of fighting between the Turkish
and Bulgarian troops at Demir-Kapia,
both sides sustaining losses.
In official quarters all knowledge of
the affair is denied. but the circumstan-
tial details given seem to indicate that
there is some fOudation for the account
of the conflict
According to one report the Turks
attacked the Bulgarian frontier post.
Another version says that the Turks
pursued a number of refugees across
the frontier.
1t is asserted that the Turks have
frequently attempted to provoke host1l-
tiles, firing into Bulgarian territory,
and crossing the frontier to steal
horses and sheep. The war office here
is working at high pressure, and 24.OOO
recruits will be called three months be-
fore the usual time. Prince Ferdinand
has sanctioned numerous other meas
ures of a warlike nature. All the cav
alry. with the exception of a single
regiment, which is stationed at Soma,
has been sent into the frontier dis
tricts. where are strong forces OF artll-
lery.' Vigorous efforts are being made
to prevent bands from crossing into
Turkish territory. Two bands which
were sent back have reached Sofia
since yesterday.
Dispatches from the frontier re-
ceiyed at the revolutionary headquar-
ters report that the refugees in the
mountains are in terrible condition
through their pursuit by the Turks and
cold and hunger. Many are dying.

The commissioner of pensions. Mr..

THREE MORE SUITS
AGAINST STRATTON

Colorado Springs. Colorado. October
4.-Three additional damage suits, ag-
gregating $4,000. were instituted in
the District Court last night against /.
Harry Stratton, the summonses being
served while Stratton was attending
the night session of the trial Of j. b.
Donovan's suit for $35, 900 for alleged
breach of contract.
Mrs. Laura Williams demands $10.-
600, Henry Jenkins $1,000 and William
Farnsworth $1,000 from Young STRAIT
ton. All allege to have entered into
contracts with young Stratton for the
various amounts upon consideration of
their aid in interviewing and locating
important witnesses before the recent
will contest.
Attorney C. w. Waterman. repre-
senting young StrattOn. in his argu-
ments in the Donovan case last night,
branded Donovan and the three new
plaintiffs as band of conspirators.
and stated that he has no hesitancy in
declaring their testimony absolutely
false from beginning to end. He stat
ed that Donovan in his dealings with
young Stratton was "a pirate under u
flag of truce, as well as bandit on
the highway of justice"
Young Stratton commented bitterly
upon the various suits that have been
filed against him. and seems particu-
larly ircensed against Mrs. Williams.
who, he stated, had attempted to se-
cure $4,000 from him prior to his de-
parture after the settlement of the Will
contest.
After an hours argument by Attor-
ney Waterman for the defense and At
torneys Brooks and Wilcox for the
plaintiff. the Donovan case went to the
jury at 9:45 o'clock last night. Should
the jury agree. a sealed verdict will be
returned. to be read in court Monday
morning.
The four suits above mentioned. to-
gether with the $50.00O suit instituted
by the law firm of Spurgeon & Cassidy
