Negro Convict Brought From the Farm Ye s

crazy negro created a great deal of
excitement at the station yesterday af
ternoon. He was a convict who had been
working on the State farms, near We'll
don, and became raving maniac. He
had to be tied to post under the shed
al the depot until carriage was secured.
His cries were pitiful and he appeared to
be suffering great pain. His mind seems
to be centered on being too hot and and
he would exclaim in loud tones of suffer-
ing from heat. 1t is probable he got over
heated while working on the farm and
this unbalanced his mind.

The Alaskan Boundary Case
(By the Associated Press.)


London, Sept 15.-The first day of the
oral arguments In the Alaskan boundary
question was taken up by Attorney Gen
eral Finlay who partially presented the
Canadian view of this important contro-
versy. When the tribunal adjourned at a
few mlputes after four O'Clock this af-
ternoon until tomorrow morning the
Canadians were gratified at scoring what
they believed to be the first good point
During the afternoon session the Attor-
ney General sought to establish the posi-
tlon of Portland Channel and fix the en-
trance thereto. He interpreted the words
"A la hauteur de- in the Russo British
correspondence leading to the signature
of the treaty of 1925, not as showing that
the boundary lies 'on the same parallel
as the lower end of Prince of Wales
Island, as claimed by the United States,
but ''off of asserted by Canada. The
effect of this would be to fix the line at
"a degrees, As minutes, as claimed by
Canada. Chief Justice Alverstpne agreed
with Attorney General Finlay.
When the American counsel have the
opportunity to speak they say they will
show that the Canadians themselves have
given various interpretations of the phrase
and they are inclined to minimize the
Importance of Lord Alverstone's state

Sofia, Sept 15.-Replying to notes of
the Turkish representative here, in which
it was alleged that the insurrection in
Macedonia was the work of Bulgarian
bands, who had crossed the frontier, the
Bulgarian government on Saturday last
replied refuted the accusation, reviewed
the history of the insurrection and claim
ed that the outbreak was the direct re-
suit of the existing form of government
in Macedonia, which had forced the youth
of the country to flee abroad and grad
ually organize the insurrection. Bulgaria
also declined all responsibility for the
events at Adrianople, which, it is de-
clared, are due to the persecution of tho
Bulgarian population. Finally Bulgaria
stated that the Turkish government was
prolonging situation filled with perils
to the principality and pointing out that
there was danger of a catastrophe disast-
rous to both countries.

Petroff Explains Bulgaria's Note.
(By the Associated Press

Sofia, Sept. 15.-Premier Petroff was
interviewed today by the correspondent
of the Associated Press here On the rea-
sons which induced the Bulgarian govern
ment to issue yesterdays note to the
powers. He said
1T has been from the first plainly evil
dent that the policy of Turkey was to
hinder the development of the Bulgarian
race in Macedonia which was the strong
est national element there. With this
end in view the Turks proceeded to de-
vastate the country and kill the Bulga-
rian Christians, driving the survivors into
the mountains and forests, where they
would either perish of hunger or else
cross the Bulgarian frontier and become
a burden to the Bulgarian nation. In the
meanwhile the powers paid not the
slightest attention to the Bulgarian note
of June 80 but rather encouraged the
Turks who adopted the most severe
measures to suppress the outbreak. The
Bulgarian government is now compelled
to protect not only Bulgaria itself but
also the Bulgarian element in Macedonia.
Turkey has now concentrated 100000
troops in Macedonia only about $4,000 of
whom are engaged in the suppression of
the revolt. 1neFe is no attempt 10 HSHt
the insurgents but the troops attack in
nocent women and children. The Bulga-
rian government is forced to perceive in
this excessive mobilization clear sign
of Turkeys desire. after she has sue
ceeded in suppressing the outbreak in
Macedonia to attack Bulgaria and ex-
terminate the Bulgarian race. All our
latest information from Macedonia and
Constantinople confirms this view
THE latest news from Constantinople
says the Porte is mobilizing the Mus
tahfuz or last line of reserves, including
men of about fifty years of age
Confronted by such conditions Bull
garia is forced to the conviction that
Turkey intends to attack her. and the
Sofia government has taken this last step
of asking the powers to intervene. Other
wise Bulgaria must take measures for
her own protection
