Has . Right to Discharge Man With
out Giving the Cause.

Scranton, Pa. Sept. 9.-Carroll d.
Wright, the umpire to whom was re-
ferred the five disputes between the
operators and miners representatives
on the board of Cancellation appointed
under the provisions of the anthracite
mine strike commission, filed his find
ings yesterday with T. D. Nichols, sec
rotary of the board. In dealing with
the question Of the employers right to
discharge men for any cause other than
of connection with labor union, Um-
pire Wright agrees wholly with the
contention of the operators represent
atives and declares that the right of
an employer to discharge with out CIV
ing the cause Of the discharge is sus-
tanned by the award of the commission.
He says that the Lehigh Coal and Navi-
cation company and Coke Brothers &
Co. should take back old men instead
OF putting on new men in all cases
where the old men are competent and
have not been convicted or are not
awaiting trial for crime committed
during the strike. The umpire's find
ings covers 25 pages Of typewriting.

SITUATION IS APPALLING.
Between 10000 and 10000 Bulgarian
Inhabitants Said 60 Have Been Butch
cred By the Turks.

Sofia, Sept. 9.-The Macedonian in
terror organization estimates that 150-
GOO women, children and old men are
hiding In the mountains and forests
of Macedonia. The Turks are burning
the forests in the districts of Leron
and Kosbr and killing fugitives who
attempt to escape to the plains. The
Vlach village of Gopesh, three hours
distance from Monastir, has been
burned by the Turks who are reported
to have thrown several of the inhabit-
ants into the fire. The bashi-bazouks
have destroyed the village of Stoilovo
near Malketernovo.
All reports from the vilayet Of Mon
astir agree in describing the situation
as appalling. Between 10000 and 50,-
600 Bulgarian inhabitants are believed
to have been massacred by the Turks
and every Bulgarian village in the
vilayet has been destroyed. The refugees
in the mountains and forests are dying
of starvation by thousands. At pres
ent II is impossible to obtain precise
figures. The revolutionary head
quarters estimate that 10000 Bulgarian
men, women and children have been
killed. while at least the same number
Of refugees are slowly perishing OF
hunger. In official circles these figures
are regarded as an underestimate and
officials incline to the belief that the
humber Of massacred exceeds $4,000.
The Turks are apparently determined
to exterminate the entire Bulgarian
population of the vilayet. The actual
details Of the happenings outside the
town are not available. The foreign
representatives at Monastir are de-
pendent on information furnished to
them from Turkish official sources.
According to telegram from Con-
stantinople the porte has issued an un-
conditional order that all European
correspondents must leave Macedonia
because they are circulating false news.
The ambassadors have been notified OF
this decision.

Miss Zanetti, who is an inspector Of
the poor at Manchester, has been max
ing special study Of intemperance
among mothers and its effect on child
life. Police reports in Manchester for
1902, she says, showed that the great
est number Of women convicted for
drunkenness were of ages between 20
and so. Thus, during the most useful
periods of their lives thousands Of
women were not only destroying
their own constitutions, but probably
giving birth to neurotic, viscious chill
