DEFENDS THE TURK
President Harper Says He Isn't Such a
Bad Fellow.

Bad Fellow.
6 Chicago, Sept. 21.-The unspeakable
Turk has many good and praiseworthy
traits has received unjust abuse and is
not such a bad citizen Of enlightened Eu-
rope after all.
q This Is what President William Harper
Of the University OF Chicago thinks.
President Harper returned to Chicago
after trip Of two months in Europe. The
university president and Major Henry

abuse" said DR.. Harper. in telling Of his
visit to the capital Of the Ottoman en-
Epire. "The Turk does not deserve en-
the opprobrium that has been heaped
upon him. The Turkish government is in
what we call very hard position. There
are a great many things which must be
taken into consideration bet17e passing

this country to think that Turkey has

we will see that the progress is some
thing amazing. For instance, Of all the
educational buildings l saw In Europe the

Chicago Federation OF Labor to Send Him
Letter on the Miller Case.
Chicago, Sept. 21.-The Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor has voted 5000 word let
ter Of advice to the president in which
fault Is found in his attitude on the ques-
ton Of open shops.
The letter was prompted by the Miller
case. ''Deliciously unaware of the hypoc-
risy Of the world of finance, honest and
humane, but uniformed were some Of the
clauses used to describe the president.
The opening paragraphs disclaim any
attack on Mr.. Roosevelt, the blame being
placed on "a coterie Of certain well-knowr
interests constantly on guard around the
White House."
The president Is told that he fell into
error because of that impetuosity fol-
which we love YOU
The reading Of the letter before the
federation meeting yesterday occupied
over an hour and excited applause from
the delegates.

Withdrawal of the American squadron
from Beirut, 1t was said, has not yet
been determined upon and no intimation
has been received from Oyster Bay as to
the presidents intentions In the matter.
Communications have reached the state
department urging this government to say
OF do something that will put q stop to
the massacres In Turkey. It Is said the
pressure does not emanate from the mis-
sionaries. Officials at the state depart
fnent are reticient about the probability Of
the United States giving expression to the
feeling with which the alleged atrocities
in Turkey are viewed by the people of this
country.
The state department still has under
consideration the matter of the appoint
ment of the rtiring vail Of Beirut to be
vail of Brusa. At present the officials
are disposed to regard the appointment in
the light of transfer rather than pro-
motion, but further inquiry into the
facts by Minister LeishInan may change
this view of the case.
1t was said at the state department to-
day that 1t was the original intention Of
the sultan to appoint the former vail Of
Beirut to be subsecretary Of the depart
ment Of the interior. and it is limited that
the strong representations against this
appointment made by Minister Leishman
were effective. In his cablegram to-day
Minister Leishman states that the Amer
lean claims against Turkey are not re-
ceiving satisfactory attention by the porte.
