ATTEMPTED JAIL DELIVERY "A bold

ATTEMPTED JAIL DELIvERY.-A bold
attempt at Jail delivery was made at the
county Jail in Norfolk Wednesday night.
The ringleader Of the prisoners who tried
to free themselves was Willie Williams,
a negro who is awaiting examination on
several charges of car-breaking. Had
the attempt been successful, twenty-one
white prisoners, together with Williams
and another negro, would have escaped
from the prison. Williams had sue
ceeded in cutting small hole through
the brick wall opening on a small porch
in front of the Jail when he was dis
covered by Jailer Huybert. The instru-
ment which the negro used was an iron
bar, which had been broken from one Of
the cells, evidently with the aid of the
white prisoners, as it is not thought that
one man could pull the bar from its
fastenings. The plot was frustrated by
the vigilance of a trusty in the Jail.

DEEDS OF TURKISH SOLDIERS
A European merchant who IeIt MONA

1
A European merchant who left Mona
stir day or two ago has arrived at Sofia
and has given an account of the terrible
conditions prevailing FIN the vilayet OF
Monastir. He says Hilmi Pasha's adj
ministration has greatly disappointed the
Christians, who expected that he would
make an improvement in the situation.
Hilmi Pasha however, is following the
line of his predecessors, and the greatest
excesses that have ever been committed
have happened since his arrival. Through
out the vilayet of Monastir the Turkish
soldiers are daily perpetrating almost In
conceivable atrocities. They dishonor
the young girls in the presence Of their
parents and pillige and murder every
where. Even funeral professions are
halted and the corpses stripped of the
new clothes in which they are dressed,
according to the Macedonian burial GUS
tom. The priests yestments are seized,
and the soldiers sell all their plunder
openly, the officers apparently consent
ing. The Christian inhabitants are ter
ror-stricken, hourly fearing a general
massacre by the MussUlmans, whose
ranatical hatred of the Christians has
reached the highest point. The shops
are closed in Monastir, business is sus-
pended, and the streets are deserted.
Even the consuls do not dare to venture
outside their homes. The country peo-
pie are afraid to come to the city lest
they should be robbed and murdered on
the way. It is estimated there that are
over 10000 people in the fields without
shelter and starving.
The continuous reports of wholesale
massacres of the Bulgarian population
and the destruction of Bulgarian villages
in Macedonia are causing considerable
excitement in political and general cir
cles in Sofia. Premier Petroff is said to
have informed the representatives of the
powers in Sofia that neither the govern
ment nor the Bulgarian people can wit
ness with indifference the annihilatiOn
of the Bulgarian element in Macedonia
and the devastation of the. country, and
unless the powers can find some means
of restraining Turkey sterriblerepressive
measures Bulgaria will be forced to de-
part from her present attitude of strict
neutrality.
The dispatches received at the State
and Navy Departments yesterday f.om
Turkey show that the situation in Beirut
is improving and that the Turkish gov
ernment mas taken a vigorous hand in
queIling the present trouble, trying to
prevent a further outbreak. 1t was
urged by Minister Leishman that the
retention Of Reshid Pasha as vail or
governor of Beirut made the lives and
property of Americans there insecure.
Reshid Pasha has accordingly been dis
missed and Nazim Pasha appointed vail.
