Attorney General Knox was giving the

farm near Valley Forge, Pa, and in his
seclusion Is said to be working assiduously
on that and other cases. He is expected
in Washington within the next two weeks.
It Is conceded that If the government
wins in the Northern Securities case it
will proceed against a number of other
mergers that fall within the scope of the

confident that the government will win,
is believed to be preparing to follow up
the victory. A decision Is expected this

was given out, that If the supreme court
upheld the lower court the Pennsylvania s

kastora Disaster Less Important than
Supposed-other Atrocities.
London, Sept LIT Is not surprising
to find that cold water Is already thrown
on the story Of the massacre at Kastoria.
The Monastir correspondent of the Daily
Mail. who Is strongly opposed to the
Turks, and who was threatened with ex-
pulsion recently. telegraphs:
ut appears that the reported massacre
at Kastoria Is an old affair. 1t occurred
on Aug. 7, when seventy Christians were
murdered. All the villages in the district
have since been laid waste
The same correspondent, however, sends
q fresh list of barbarities, which. he says
are not in need Of exaggeratton, as he
claims they are thoroly authenticated.
Eighteen children he says, were burned
to death in a baking oven by the Turks
at Pisoder on Sept. IL, and 200 women
were massacred at Jervan. Fifty women
and children who fed to the mountains,
returned to their village under stress Of
starvation, and were murdered by the
soldiers. Fourteen old men who were
murdered by bashi- bazouks, and four VII
lages near Krushevo were destroyed and
many Of the inhabitants massacred.
Beirut Riot Prearranged.
A letter to the Daily Mall from Cairo
states that the riot at Beirut was care
fully planned a week beforehand and that
the Moslems distributed arms for use In
the trouble. Four hundred Mohamme g.
dams assisted the soldiers who attacked
the Christian quarter. They were met
with brave resistance by the Christians
and a heavy and continuous fusilade fol-
lowed. The Christians were finally over
como and fed. The attacking party then
plundered and massacred until the vail
interfered. A number Of old persons and
children were murdered in cold blood. In
addition to these, sixteen Mussulnnan civil
tans ten soldiers and nine Christians were
killed.

Constantinople, Sept. 19-Within the
last twenty-four hours a more quiet feel
ing has prevailed, due to assurances re-
ceived that the Bulgaria mobilization Is
only applied to few regiments and is
intended for the reinforcement Of the
frontier posts.
Further successes Of Turkish soldiers
are reported and the present forces m the
Rumelian svallayets are considered suf-
ficient to cope with the situation. For
these reasons it is declared that the ru-
mors Of the impending mobilization Of
the fourth and fifth Turkish army corps
have no foundation. %.
The appointment Of Reshid Pasha, the
former vail Of Beirut, as vail Of Brusa,
Asiatic Turkey, is unfavorably regarded in
diplomatic circles.

San Domingo, Sept. 19.-United States
Minister Powell has sent a strong protest
to the Dominican government based on
the following grounds:
That the action of the Dominican gov
eminent in sending to congress a project
for establishing the neutrality of Domint-
can waters and making certain ports free
would Gin view of the fact that San Do
mingo is neighboring state) not be ac-
cepted in a friendly spirit by the govern
ment Of the United States.
That the United States government
would not allow the establishment Of any
coaling ports in Santo Domingo or the
cession Of any portion of Santo Domingo
territory to any European power.
That the United States will not permit
any nation to make exclusive use of Do
minican waters in time of peace, much less
in time of war. Nor could the United
States allow any portion Of Dominican
territory to be classed as neutral nor
permit any section of the country to con-
f1ict with the concession granted to the
Clyde line. according to which all vessels
arriving from foreign ports are COM
PEELED to pay port dues, excepting the
Clyde steamers.
