PARRY REPLIES AT LENGTH.
Answers Questions Propounded by La
Dor OrGanization.

Indianapolis. Oct 26.-President ID
M. Parry of the National Manufac
turers' association has made public q
reply of 15,0 900 words to the questions
propounded to him several months age
by the Central Labor union of In
dianapolis bearing upon his attitude
toward organized labor and the rea
sons therefor. The reply is being
printed in pamphlet form. The labor
question is argued generally from the
standpoint of an employer. In open
ing Mr.. Parry says:
Under the American form of gov
ernment men have a perfect right to
quit their employment when they see
fit. But when they once quit they
have no right TO interfere in any man
ner whatever with their former en-
ployer or with the men hired to take
the places they have abandoned"
Mr.. Parry attacks the socialists in
the labor movement and also some of
the principles of unionism, which he
designates as being socialistic. In
speaking of the trusts Mr. Parry says
they may take advantage of lack of
law or poor law. but they are not to be
found carrying on business with revol-
vers pointed at the heads OF other
people

NEW SCHEME FOR REFORMS IN
MACEDONIA SUBMITTED TO
TURKISH RULER.
IMPORTANT CHANGES ARE SUGGESTED
AUSTRIA AND RUSSIA TO CON
TRoL DISTURBED DISTRICTS
FOR TWO YEARS.

Constantinople, Oct 26 - The
scheme of the powers for the ameliora
ton of affairs in Macedonia has been
submitted to the porte. 1t has for its
guiding principle control of and sur
veillance over ali branches or the ad-
mnistration of the disturbed prov
inces by Austria and Russia for q
period of two years. The proposals
include the appointment of one Aus
trian and one Russian assessor, to be
attached to the staff of Hilmi Pasha,
the inspector general, with a corps of
assistants, secretaries and inter-
prefers, whose duties will be to eXer-
else control over all the acts of the
provincial authorities A European
general in the Turkish service is to be
appointed to command the gen
darmerie and he will be assisted by
an adequate number of Russian and
Austrian officers acquainted with the
languages Of the country and, II nee
essary by Austrian and Russian non
commissioned officers. couple OF
Further Important Proposals,
which will be opposed by the sultan,
provide for the establishment of COM
munal autonomy and the rectification
OF the present communal boundaries,
with the view to the better distribu-
tion Of the various communities and
the creation Of spheres-Bulgarian
Albanian, Servian, etc.-that shall be
more homogeneous in nationality and
religion. Other points of the scheme
deal with the relief of refugees, the
rebuilding of villages, schools and
churches. the disbandment Of the ir
regular troops and the prohibition of
the employment of Bashi Bazouks.
Opposition to the whole scheme is eX-
pected on the part of the porte, but
the Austrian and Russian ambassa-
dors demand the adoption of the plan
with the least possible delay.
1t is thought that some of the other
P"~ars may object to the apnnint-
ment of exclusively Austrian and Rus
sian assessors and demand that the
commission Of control be given
more international character.

better success. He travelled under an
assumed name all the time. Since his
arrival here he tried to obtain work

the money he had left. he says. was
stolen from him. Brown desires to be
taken back to New Holland at once

UNDER ONE MANAGEMENT.
Methodist Educational Institutions to
Be Merged.

Chicago. Oct 26.--A plan whereby
all, or nearly ALL OF the Methodist
educational institutions in the coun-
try may be united under one general
supervising body of directors, with
Northwestern university as the head

dent Edmund James James of North
western AS evidence that the smaller
institutions are ready for such un-
ion President James declares that al
ready two colleges have asked to be
taken under the protection and man
agement of Northwestern university,
while the university has already an
nexed two preparatory schools-the
Elgin academy and the Grand Prairie
seminary of Onarga.
1T is a clearly manifested fact,
said President James. that ii denom-
national institutions are to do their
best work they must work in unity.
There must be harmony between the
different stitutions-harmony which
will permit one general management.

London, Oct. 26-The Associated
Press is able to announce the ap
pointment of Sir Henry Mortimer Du
rand. the British ambassador at Mad
rid, as British ambassador TO the
United States, to succeed the late Sil
Michael Herbert.
Official announcement of the ap
pointment, however, will not be made
for day or two, when the king viii

Sir Henry Durand left London Fri
day for Madrid, where at his own de
sire, he will personally announce his
promotion.
The selection of Sir Henry to sue
ceed Sir Michael Herbert was a sur
prise to most people here, chiefly be-
cause he has never had any official
connection with Washington.
The Associated Press learns that
Sir Henry has frequently expressed a
great liking for Americans and a de-
sire to go to the United States. His
promotion comes more or less in the
ordinary course of diplomatic changes,

Sir Henry Howard, the British min
lister at The Hague and Luxembourg.
and Sir Nicholas O'Connor, the British
ambassador at Constantinople. were
among others considered for the post.
but Sir Henry Durand was finally Sc
lected as the most suitable. While
British minister to Persia Sir Henry
was regarded in ST. Petersburg as be-
ing the most astute diplomat Great
Britain ever sent TO Teheran.
In addition to his diplomatic sue
cesses in Persia. Indian and Afghan
istan Sir Henry is an expert shot and
has had many adventures with big
game while hunting in India, where
he was closely connected with General
Lord Roberts. now field marshal. serv-
Ing as his political secretary during
the famous Cabul campaign.
In Spanish diplomatic circles sur
prise is expressed at Sir Henry's with
drawal from Madrid.
Lady Durand is not very strong, but

mate will benefit her health and en-

Russia Making Permanent improve
ments in Manchuria.

Berlin, Oct 26.-An American who
had spent some months at Dalny, the
new Russian seaport on the Laotung
peninsula, has arrived in Berlin. He
informed the correspondent of the AS
sociated Press that the Russian troops
are apparently arranging to stay in
Manchuria permanently. Russia has
200 900 troops there and barracks are
being erected at Dalny for two addi-
tional regiments. Russia is also
strengthening her position on the
west bank Of the Yalu river
Japan continues her policy of set
tling Korea. She is acquiring large
tracts of land and is building villages
having wholly Japanese administra-
ton
The informant of the correspondent
also said he did not believe war was
impending since Russia was satisfied
to remain in Manchuria, not caring TO
extend her authority into Korea"

NOT LIKELY TO BE APPROVED
Attitude of Other Powers Regarding
Proposed Reforms.

Paris. Oct. 2G-It is believed here
that in view of the fact that the terms
of the latest Russian-Austrian note to
Turkey provide that the proposed com
mission OF control which is to assist
Turkey in carrying ont the reforms in
Macedonia. is TO be composed of Aus
trian and Russian representatives,
without any representatives OF the
other powers, that the sultan may de-
fer accepting the plan until he has
ascertained the attitude OF Great Brit
ain, France and the other powers in
terested in the Orient and it is said
that these powers are not likely to
favor the reform plan unless they are
represented upon the commission.
