Atlanta, Ca, Sept. 20.-A special to

planned by Knights Templar. with the
Balkans in place of Palestine as the

Prominent members of the order are
agitating the formation of league
that will send regiments of we'll drilled
fighters TO the aid of Bulgaria, and the
crusades Cf the twelfth century may
have their modern prototype in a move
ment of the templars against the troops
of the porte. The plan has received
consideration by the Chicago members

Among the 10000 Knights Te,nplars in
Chicago the outrages at Beirut and
Adrianople and Kastoria have revived
the spirit that led to the formation of
the order eight centuries ago. At the
convention at Peoria leading members
of the organization discussed seriously
the eXpediency of issuing a call for
volunteer regiments to be sent to the
scene of depradations, with the result
that one of the eleven local command
cries will be asked to take action to-
morrow night.
AS yet the scheme is not perfected.
but the general plan is to muster regi-
ments of Templars and send them to
enlist under the Bulgarian government.

GOVERNMENT WATCHING.

L
Denver, Colo, Sept 2O-The United
States government is keeping close
watch on the situation in the Cripple
Creek district The work is being done
by special secret service agents. said to
be stationed there now. who report di-
rectly to Washington. 1t is all indie
pendent of the military authority in the
department of the Colorado. The OBJ
ject is to protect in a way the property
rights of alien owners in that section
In a general way the responsibility of
the government for the protection of
alien holders is misunderstood. Off
cially the United States has no respon-
sibility in the matter. Those properties
in the Cripple Creek section owned by
foreigners or foreign corporations must
seek their redresses for any wrongs
done them or damage to their property
from the state of Colorado. The status
of the governments responsibility has
been fixed by several precedents.
The first international case arising in
the west of consequence was the killing
of some Cinnamon at Rock Springs,
Wyo Then followed the murder of
the Italians in New Orleans. In that
affair the government disciaimed any
responsibility and as a state Louisiana
paid no attention TO the demands of the
Italian government. 1t was finally set
tied by an appropriation of $4,000 by
congress through special legislation,
Other cases have established the re-
sponsibility of damage 10 property
along the same lines.
Our government" said a federal
office holder yesterday. has no possible
way of protecting itself against the acts
of 4 state. On one or two occasions, say
like the killing of Italians in Louisiana.
the neglect of acts nearly plunged the
country into war with a foreign power.
For many years it has been the inten-
ton of the national lawmakers to have
an amendment to the constitution COW
ering the contingencies of these mat
ters It has never been done for Cbvi-
Gus reasons. Fooling with the subject
of state rights brought on the civil war.
1t IS generally conceded now, however,
that perhaps the anti-bellum feeling
has died out enough to secure good laws
on the subject
Another point brought out by the
condition in Cripple Creek is the proba-
BILE action of the government to protect
by troops the properties of foreign
holders or foreign corporations.
The property owned by foreign cor
porations and capitalists" said AttOr-
ney General Miller yesterday lis en-
titled TO protection from the govern
merit. But when the state is doing all
in it's power to protect that property
there is no likelihood that the United
States government will step in and take
a hand in the proceedings"

BOGUS CONFED. NOTE
Plate Seized in Denver and an Old

Denver. Colo. Sept. 2O.-Special
Agent Walker OF the United States
secret service has seized a plate of a
facsimile of confederate note, which
had been the property of c. II. kelisy.
The latter. the government officer had
been informed, was about to print ad-
vertising on the back of facsimiles OF
the notes. Such printing is against the
law regulating the currency of the
country, as patries have been found to
have used the notes thus printed for
fraudulent purposes. Any one posses

it. but fac SMILES of the notes are pro-
hibited.

BLOODY PLANS OE /

BLOODY PLANS OF INSURGENTS.
London. Sept. 20.-The Daily Nails
correspondent at Sofia says: One of the
revolutionary chiefs informed ME that
the reVOlutionists are massing thou
sands of troops at various points on
the frontier and their laboratories are
working necessarily to replenish their
stock of bombs and explosives. They
do not count much on the war between
Turkey and Bulgaria, but on the day
they hear that the meeting between
the car of Russia and Emperor Fran
els Joseph has not had the desired re-
suit for Macedonia the world will see
the beginning of massacres. burnings
and destruction, compared with which
the Turkish astrocities will seem child's
play.
THE banner OF the revolution my
informant says, will be unfurled il
ali the border districts. Every city
and village, whether the inhabitants
are friends or foe. will be destroyed
and such a state of anarchy will be
caused that the Turks will step out
voluntarily and leave the country to
the Macedonian survivors. We have
selected the frontier districts for these
final operations SC that all Europe may
hear the despairing cries of the dying
nation which the Turks would stilte. -
