WORST REPORTS
 ARE CONFIRMED
Affair at Salonica May Neccssitate
 European Intervention.

London, May 4.-Except as to the number of killed, which is now said not to exceed 100, the latest telegraph and mail advices from SalOnica fully COZ firm the previous reports of the serious nature or the outbreak there. Advan- tage seems to have been taken or the fact that the Turks had relaxed their precautions and that the garrison was seriously depleted. amounting to only 400 soldiers. The first mine that was exploded cut the principal main and plunged the city into darkness. T1en the Ottoman bank and other buildings were attacked with bombs, as already described Soldiers were hurried up to the scene of the tToubie. They fired wild Volleys, but many of the attackers were killed or wounded by the eXplo- sion of their own bombs. All attempts at throwing bombs are now being dealt with summarily. At noon last Sunday a man disguised as Turkish priest tried to throw bomb into the telegraph office at Salonica.
 He was aIprehended and executed on the spot. The authorities continue to make arrests, and many Bulgarians disguised as Turkish officers are Delng seized. Among those arrested are professor in Bulgarian Scnool. Euedu Pasha, who arrived at Salonica last Sunday to carry out the decree or martial law, has issued a proclamation stating that the sultan has ordered him to deal severely with all persons guilty of outrages. At Uskub, European Turkey. the police have seized stores of dynamite in the house C. the Bull garian residents. The news that Ger many has ordered war ship to Salon ica has led the Austrian newspapers to discuss the probability of European in- tervention.
 In both Berlin and Vienna, however, semi-offlciaI statements have been is sued explaining that the object of the ships of war is solely the protection Of foreign subjects and that the vessels will be withdrawn as soon as the dan ger is over.

A, TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 5, 1903

The first speaker of the evening was George Purdy Bullard, who it was stated in the introduction would say something of what the democratic ad- ministration had done for Phoenix. Mr. Bullard pointed with pride to the new band stand, and left an inference that that ornate structure offset the difference of some s4O,O00 between the expenditures of the city this year and the last year of the republican admin istration. But that was not all MT. Bullard went so far as to say that on account of the excellence of the present health department, tuberculosis, the great white death, had been robbed of considerably more than half its terrors.
 Mir. Bullard was succeeded by Judge Baker, who seemed i'll at ease in ad- dressing a meeting engineered by the Young Mems Democratic club. His plea for the ticket was weaker than one by the same eminent criminal law yer would have been if he had been called upon to defend a penniless tramp on q contingent fee.

 President Roosevelt spoke briefly, acknowledging the debt of gratitude the country owes to the Grand Army and stated that the soldiers of the union must not serve as an example to use in time of war but also in time of peace. He spoke on good citizenship and placed the responsibility for the citizenship of the future on the parents of today.

SHOT IN THE BACK
 BY UNKNOWN ASSASSIN
Another Political Murder Added to
 Kentucky's Long List.

Lexington, Ky, May 4.-Just after he had finished filing the papers reopen ing the contested election cases of Breathitt county, James B. Marcum was shot and killed by an unknown as sasin. He fell in his tracks in the front entrance of the courthouse at Jackson. Ky, and never. spoke, death being all
 most instantaneous. He fell within a few yards of where Town Marshal
 James Cockrell was shot down in July.
 the assassin being stationed in the courthouse in each instance.
 Marcum was counsel for the fusion ists who are contesting for the offices of county judge. sheriff and other places now held by democrats. As a result of his efforts and his sympathy with the COckrell faction in the Hargis- Cockrell feud, he had for a year been generally
 regarded as a marked man." Various plots to assassinate him have been re- ported and sworr to in affidavits. For seventy-tw two days last fall he was
 prisoner in his own house, daring not even to go out on his porch. The bit
 terness of the feud abated somewhat however, and the election cases were allowed to sleep until Monday. Despite warnings, Marcum felt safe in resum- ing his interrupted practice some tine ago and felt secure in filing a motion to reopen the cases which had impariled
 his life months before.
 At s o'clock this morning he went to the courthouse at Jackson and the pa pers were filed. He walked from the clerks office to the front door of the courthouse and, facing the street, en- ga ged in conversation with Benjamin Ewing, q friend. The corridor at his
 back was full of men. Ewing was half leaning on Marcums shoulder. The men had been talking about three min
 utes, and it was S:30 o'clock when
 shot rang out in the rear of the corri- dor. Marcum staggered, and as he sank to the floor another shot was fired.
 The first bullet entered the back to the right of the spinal column, and after passing through the breast and body
 struck the door facing him. The next shot passed through the top of his head and was aimed as he r.eled. The shots appeared to come from a doorway or possibly from behind a door in the cor ridor, but as the place was quickly cleared amid great confusion no one seemed to be able to state accurately where the assassin was located. A
 telegram from County Judge Harrs
 received at S:9O o'clock tonight stated
 that the assassin is still unknown.

KANSAS STORMS.

The Probable Loss of Cattle From
 Shows.
 Sharon Springs. Kan, May 4.-Snow in the valleys yet tells of the severity of the past weeks storm in western Kansas. Farmers are coming with re ports of serious cattle losses. r. is probable that more cattle have been killed than in all other storms of the winter combined.
 In Wallace county alone the losses will amount to 800 head. Other coun- ties have equal losses. owing to the drifting of the stock against the harbed wire fences. and several thousand head will only approximate the losses m western Kansas and eastern Colorado.

Denver, Colo, May 4.-This is presi- dents day in Denver and President Roosevelt was given a true western welcome. From the moment he stepped off the train at the union depot to the time he waved farewell as the special started on it's southern journey through Colorado and New Mexico it was an ovation. At the capitol, where the president delivered an address, a dense mass of humanity endeavored to catch his words. There was wild enthusiasm and more at the City park, where the president greeted the school children Of the city. The entire entertainment of the distinguished visitor was carried nut without a hitch and there was not a second of delay. Thousands lined the beautifully decorated streets through which the president and party passed from the depot to the capitol and thence to the City park and back again to the station President Roosevelt won the hearts of his auditors at the capitol by his reference to his former western eX- periences. He mentioned that his visit to Denver was a renewal of old ac- quaintance and one he valued highly
 
 and the necessity for securing irriga- ton for the west. He was interrupted in his talk on the issues and problems of the day to give a little time to the children who crowded on the platform. It was a happy effect. The president spent Eearly- half aR-houF with the lit tie ones at the City park. He showed his appreciation of their attention and was greatly affected by the presenta- tion of a bouquet by a little girl on be- half of her assembled schoolmates-
 There were three attempts to get tO President Roosevelt during his stay here. In each case the alertness of the secret service men prevented the in truders from reaching the executive, although it is believed that no harm was intended by the men. The presi- dent was not worried by the incidents, though Governor Peabody, who with his staff and the citizens committee gave a welcome to the president, mo- ticeably paled when a man attempted to pass a package to the president at the capitol. The man was hustled out of the crowd by a Pinkerton agent and taken to a police station. Nothing de- veloped of the incident. The president after leaving Denver was the guest of Colorado Springs, Pueblo and Trinidad. reaching the latter place about mid night. He then continued his journey to New Mexico, with Santa Fe as his objective point.

A military es- cort accompanied the carriages to a decorated platform that had been built in front of the palace.
 Here the president spoke about if teen minutes to a large crowd. The weather was bright and delightful and excursionists had come from .long dis tances. MT. Roosevelt seemed to enjoy the scene and spoke with hearty enthu- siasm. The last part of the address was especially earnest, expressing his trust in the ability of the people of the republic to overcome the difficulties and problems that arise, not by genius or brilliance, but by the exercise of plain and practical common sense and an insistence upon genuine liberty and falr play for each individual On the way downtown the long procession paused at the beautifully decorated Centennial School building, where the president addressed several thousand pupils of the public schools. The rest of the way to the union depot was a mile of cheer ing crowds. At the depot the president and the officials with him reviewed the military portion of the parade. and then he boarded his train with smil- ing adieu and a hearty Good luck to you
