American Lega-
ton to Be Made
an Embassy.
Special Dispatch to The CAN.

w 7 ASHINGTON, Sept. 11.-Now
NM that the United States has
been drawn into the vortex Of
the Turkish crisis 1t proposes to be able
to WELD as strong a hand in affairs at
the Sublime Porte as any European
power. The State Department is anxious
that the American legation at Constanti-
nOple be elevated to an embassy with a
corresponding advance of the Turkish le-
cation at Washington.
American diplomacy at the Porte suffers
materially, as Mr.Leishman is only a min
lister. He meets with vexatious delays in
seeing officials with whom he can confer
advantageously in delicate situation
such as now exists. Were ne an Embas-
sadOr, a personal representative of the
President of the United States, he would
be entitled to personal audiences with the
Sultan Such is the prestige now enjoyed
by the European powers.
President Roosevelt realizes the great
obstacle which lies in Leishman's low
rank. Several months ago after repeated
representations through the usual chan
nelS, President Roosevelt sent a letter to
the Sultan through Mr.. Leishman who
delivered it personally. The result was
a better agreement on the long pending
questions than the State Department had
expected to obtain
Leishman in a cable to the State Depart
ment to-day explained the error which
led to his notifying the department that
Vice-Consul Megelsson had been killed
Consul Ravndal fled to Leishman CT
pher message stating that Megelssen had
been shot at. When the message was
received at the American legation by
Leishman and translated it read that Mr.
Megelssen had been shot, assassinated." !"
The error is explained by the fact that
the cipher symbol for the word at is
with the exception Of a digit the same
as for "assassinated.'
The following bulletin was posted at
the Navy Department to-day:
Rear Admiral Cotton te1egraphs from
Beirut September 10, that the Governor
General of Damascus has been appointed
Acting Governor General at Beirut and
has expressed a desire TO settle the case
of the American Vice-COnsuI satisfactor-
lily to the United States. Beirut quiet
business improving, confidence increas-
ing"
A long cablegram reached the State De-
partment from Minister Leishman on the
general Turkish situation which has not
yet been made public. The prestige Of Mr.
Leishman at COnstantinople has greatly
increased since the appearance Of the Eu-
ropean squadron off Beirut. and the scope
of his representations to the Porte has
is understood that our Government will
push to an early conclusion all its pend
ing claims against Turkey.
Chekib Bey, the Turkish Minister, was
a caller at the State Department to-day,
bringing further reassuring advices that a
condition Of complete peace has been es-
tabIished at Beirut.

GAINS LIBERTY
WITH THOUSANDS
Large Sum Needed for
Release of Edwin
D. MOers.
Wealthy Young Californian
Bailed Out of New
York Jail.
Special Dispatch to The Can.

NEW YORK, Sept u.-Edwin d. Moers,
wealthy young Californian, was re-
leased from Ludlow street Jail tonight
after being in custody for three months
under a suit for divorce and alimony
brought by his wife. Dorothy B. Moers.
]. c. Robinson, a friend of Moer's fam
1ly' came from Los Angeles with $4,000,
which was deposited with local trust
company with an arrangement under
which any sums recovered by Mrs. MOers
are TO be paid TO her by the trust COM
pany.
Moers' adventures have few parallels
outside of fiction, and also the career
Of Mrs MOers. He was to sail for Eu-
rope on June II last with his mother.
On the preceding day he was arrested.
Previous to this MOers had come to New
York, concealed his identity and obtained
employment in the chorus of the Mock
ing Bird" Musical Comedy Company. He
was so extravagent that he was discharg-
ed on account Of the intense popularity
he attained in the chorus and among the
principals of the company.
Mrs. Moers soon after she had caused
her husbands arrest was herself arrest
ed on a warrant charging larceny OBJ
tanned by Mrs. Lena c. Hit of Mount
Vernon. The suit was settled.

LEADER OF THE MACEDON-
Ian REVOLUTIONS

Albania September 6. A strong band of
insurgents attacked the Turks who were
occupying the town. Reinforcements
were speedily sent to Klisura and the
insurgents were repulsed after a sharp
fight Both sides lost heavily.
A consular report from Salonica says
300 insurgents at Zelenitz, district of Kas-
toria. who surrendered after they had
been surrounded, were massacred by
Turkish soldiers
The Hamidich (Kurdish) cavalry regi-
rnent was called back as it was entrain-
ing for Adrianople. 1t is believed this
was due to a protest against the employ
ment of Asiatic troops, made by one of
the embassies.

RUSSIA 5 PLANS

OptlmiStS Take Another

New Demands on China Com

LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE British For
eign Ofice has received official confrma-
ton OF the London Times dispatch from
Picking. published September 10. saying
that the Russian Minister al the Chinese
capital has added two fresh conditions to
those imposed on China as conditional
TO the evacuation Of the Manchurian
provinces October g.
This materially changes the optimistic
view taken Of the Far Eastern situation
which the japanese based upon the first
reports Of the Russian note. II is learned
that japan has advised all her represen-
tatives abroad OF the details of the Rus
sian demands, which she now evidently
c0nstrUes as a determination on the part
Of Russia 10 maintain her grasp on Man
Churia.
NiscOunt Hayashi. the japanese Min
lister here, has not been notified as to the
attitude which the authorities at Toxic
VIII adopt. II is said that Russia re-
Quires China 10 signify her acceptance Of
all her demands, as a condition TO the
evacuation Of Manchuria, and that she
has made no move 10 withdraw from
Manchuria, though she has pledged her
word 10 complete the evacuation by Octo-
ber s.

urgent representations TO induce the Rus
sian withdrawal without conditions.

then had the course Of the vessel altered.
As the schooner drew near he saw the
ship bottom up and the bleached arms Of
living persons clinging to the capsized
thing. He distinguished. moreover. the
dark hair Of a woman floating over the
seas as the waves ran and fell along the
bobbing keel
Two men and the woman caught a ilne

like 50 many fish. Captain King decided
from the weak and terribly emaciated
condition Of those whom he had rescued
that it would be too great a risk TO de-
The men would surely be drowned if they
released their hold upon the wreck. With
celerity the Fieldings crew unlashed a
boat and put II overheard and the cap

and carried them aboard ship.
The rescued persons were in a very
serious condition They had been without
food or water for four days and nights.

French w arships
Ordered to Be
Ready.

- ARIS, Sept. 1.-THE commander
- of the French Mediterranean
squadron at Toulon has received
orders to hold in readiness to leave for
the Levant naval division consisting of
the battIeship Bennus, the armored
cruiser Latouche TreviIle, the second
class cruiser Du Chayla and the third
class cruiser Linois, under the command
of Admiral Jaureguiberry.
Reports received by the Foreign Office
here from Constantinople say there is re-
newed agitation among the Mussulmans
within the city and fears are expressed of
a possible Mussulman attack on the
Christian population. This agitation fol-
lowed the appearance in the Turkish pa
pers of accounts of the Bulgarians dyna-
miting trains and blowing UP the steam
boat Vaskapu. The Government consid-
cred that official sanction of the publica-
tion of the news was the best means to
avoid exaggerated stories of the explo-
sions. AS the Government had vigorously
suppressed any mention of explosions
during the past twenty years the recent
publications caused widespread agitation.
The official report says the Mussulmans
are eager to avenge the outrages and
states that the feeling is so intense that
If the Bulgarians commit any further de-
struction the Mussulmans are likely to
take redress by attacking the Christian
population Earnest representations on
the subject have been made to the Porte,
which has given assurances that all pre-
cautions will be taken, and has reiterated
its confidence that it will be able to con-
troll the situation.

recaptured Vasiliko on Sunday last after
the insurgents occupying the place had
been attacked by 1000 Turkish troops with
two cannon.
The release of Abdul Kader, the natur-
allied citizen of the United States. from
Imprisonment at Tripoli, Syria, and the
dismissal Of Reshid Pasha, the vail of
Beirut, are taken to indicate that the
granting of the other demands of Minis
ter Leishmen will not be long DELAYED.
The American Consul at Beirut reports
that the situation there is improving,
thanks to the confidence inspired by
NaZim Pasha, who has succeeded Reshid
Pasha. Rumors of fresh outrages con
tinue to reach Constantinople, but these
reports are deliberately spread with the
object of creating the impression that the
present situation at Beirut was provoked
by the arrival there of the United States
warships.
AS a matter of fact a desperate state
of affairs is chronic at Beirut Insecur-
ity has prevailed there for months-prac-
tically throughout Reshid Pasha's ten
ure of Office. The present Grand Visier
six months ago asked the Sultan to re-
move Reshid Pasha. but the latters sup
porters at the palace were 100 powerless.
Reshid Pasha is alleged to have made a
large fortune by corrupt administration.
