MARES WORLDS RECORD

Readvilie. Mass, Aug. A.-Lou Dillon. driven by Willard Sanders. today trotted a mile in two minutes, lowering by l-i seconds the worlds trotting record. held since 1901 by Cresceus. 2:02 l-<. The track was fast, the weather fine and the crowd large. Lou Dillon became the fastest mare trotter on July Il. 1908, when she trotted a mile in 2:os 1-2. She lowered this time to 2:02 3-A recently, reducing The Abbots selding record 3-4 of q second.
 For pacemakers there were two run. ming horses hitched to road carts. Peggy from Paris. driven by Doc Tanner, and Carrie Nation. driven by Scott Mccoy The first score was fruitless, Lou Dillon making q break just before reaching the wire. On the second attempt the word was given. Tenner kept Peggy from Paris directly in front of the chestnut trotter while Mccoy lay at her wheel In this way the trio went to the quarter pole in 0:3o 1-4. With never a skip Lou Dillon went so smooth-gaited down the back stretch as to lead those not timing the
 mile to believe that her speed was not aiarmingly fast. The half was clicked of in. loo s-4. Around the turn to the three-quarters pole the clip uuickened. the third quarter being in O:30 1-A, mak- ing that mark of her journey in 1:3i. Faster and faster came Tanner with the runner and right with him trotted the handsome California bred mare. Sanders was sitting perfectly stiil. but Mccoy was crying aloud to his runner to cheer on Lou Dillon
 To the amazement of all the quarter was driven in 0;2s, thus making the mile in two minutes.
 When Sanders logged the mare back to the wire. those who had witnessed the performance leaped to their feet and sent forth cheer after cheer. Lou Dillon ap- 'parently was as fresh as though she had only been out for jogging exercise.
 Sanders said he fully believed that be- fore the season closed he would drive the mare In f:5s or better.

SITUATION
 IS LIE ] zp Anarchy and P inc Re- ported in z dgaria. WAR IS THREATENED Rumors of Massacres at MOnaster Authenticated. Churches Were Demolished, Houses Sacked and Now the Town
 is . Mass of
 Ashes.

Sofia, Aug. 24-With the rumors of massacres and the murder of prisoners in Monastir now authenticated. the general situation is considered here as fast be- coming intolerable. Oficial and diplo- matic circles alike are concerned, having every reason to fear that only part of the horrors enacted in the interior of Macedonia have come to light as yet. The revolutionary committees are doing their utmost to force the hands of the Bull garian Government and the immediate outlook Is exceedingly serious.
 1t appears that the Turks have obtained the upper hand in, the vilayet of Monas- tir and the insurgents are planning to remove the center of their activity close to Bulgarian frontiers. Dispatches arr irving today from the disturbed area are exceedingly gloomy. From Adrianople comes the news of Turkish defeat and the extension of the revolutionary out breaks; from Monastir the news of Turk ish victories accompanied by barbarous excesses.
 While many of the reports remain with out confirmation. sufficient authentic de- tails are forthcoming to cause the su- thorities the gravest anxiety. According to The Sofia Dnevnih, the Turks commit ted unspeakable atrocities at Krushevo,
 The mutilated corpses of ninety women and children were found in one building; 0~SAA the street. Fifteen of the principal mer- chants of the town were killed and their heads exhibited on poles.
 At Monastir the churches were deuDol- lshed the houses sacked and the town is now in d heap of ashes. The populaee fled to the hills. where they are in a starving condition.
 The Dnevnik also asserts that a gem eral massacre has taken place in the whole vilayet of Monastir. Nearly all the villages have been destroyed. The treacherous murder of eighty iusurgent prisoners by their guards near Monastir here.
 Many rslrpors are current of msssacres fin the city of Adrlanopie, but connrniA- ton IS lacking The situation there, however, undoubtedly is serious. The population Is afraid to leave the houses. The prisons are full and the .vah has

Yesterday while playing with a %
calibre pistol, Bert, the young son
OF Mr. and Mrs. c. l.. Deadly. CT this
city, was accidentally shot. He and a
companion were handling the weapon
not believing that the gun was load
ed. and with the time honored result
that it went off. The Dall struck the
lad near .the eye and ranged down
ward. At first it was believed that
the wound was Of a dangerous nature
but last evening the attending phys-
clan stated that the 10y was doing
well as could be -<,ected and be-
ileved that he would recover. The
course of the bullet was traced in
several inches with probe. but was
not located, and it is now thought
that the ball found its way into the
mouth and may have been swallowed.
That the wound vas not fatal is
surprising. as it did everything but
find fatal spot. The boy stood the
shock we'll and last evening was con-
yersiag with all who called An en-
deavor will be made to locate the
bullet with the X-ray in the next
