 cred Many Women.

creN many women.
 London, Sept 1S.-As result of the intervention of the British ambassador the decree of expulsion has not been enforced against the Daily Mails cor respondent at Monastir, who under the date September 1e telegraphed:
 A veritable reign of terror exists here. Suspected Christians vanish ut terly. presumably to prison. Spies abound on every hand. The following are some tales of atrocities which I have thoroughly authenticated:
 The Turks burned eighteen children to death in a baking oven at Pisoder, near Armensko, on September F. They massacred 200 women and children at Jervan in revenge for defeat at the hands of the insurgents. Fifty women and children. returning starved from the mountains to their devastated homes, were murdered by soldiers. Between September 10 and September 12 the Bashi-B -Bazouks destroyed four villages near Krushevo in the presence of the kaimakan {administrator) of Krushevo in person, massacreing and mutilatng the inhabitants"
 The Daily Mails Constantinople cor respondent says the porte is dissatisfied with Bulgarian assurances that the mo- obligation of the Bulgarian forces is only intended to prevent bands from passing the frontier, and a high mili- tary commission is now sitting at Yildiz Kiosk considering plan for the inva- ton of eastern Roumelia.

 Chicago. Sept. 1S.-A special to the Evening Post from Cleveland says that the big fleet of the United States Steel corporation, which has been tied up by. strike of the Masters and Pilots asso- tion. will be sent into winter quarters as fas. as the boats arrive at the lay ing up ports. This is the outcome of one of the most remarkable strikes in the history of the Great Lakes, strike in which all sorts of charges of conspir- acy and graft have been made.
 It is expected that large portion of the fleet will be tied by the first of next week, thereby throwing out of em- ployment 2,500 men directly and a vast army employed in the mines and steel mills. The steamer Clemson, which caused the complication, arrived at South Chicago to-day. Another, the John B. Trevor, reached Chicago to-day, and was promptly tied up by the mates strike.

 Paced by one runner. the quarter was made in thirty seconds and the half in :5sA. From there on he had the benefit of two runners and reached the three quarters in 1:29A. The record then seemed to be trembling, but on getting into the stretch a heavy bit of track was experienced. which tired the pacer. so much that he reached the wire in two minutes flat

SHUTDOWN OF OPERATIONS
CONSOLIDATED LAKE SUPERIOR
 COMPANY STOPS WORK.

biiities Until He Knows Where che
 Money to Meet Them |. Coming From
 -s,5Oo Men Throws Out of Work.
 sault Ste. Marie, Mich. Sept. ls.- Pending the outcome of the financial difficulties in which the Consolidated Lake Superior company is now involved President Shields has issued orders to temporarily close down all of the oper- ations of the company except the street railway system on both sides of the riv- CT, the ferry system and the Tagona Light and Power company of the can- adian Soo.
 This step is taken, it is announced. because the funds of the company are exhausted and Mir. Shields does not want to incur further liabilities until 1t is known where the money with which to met them is coming from. Inasmuch as the company's operations on the American side are confined to the street railway and the power house force. the order will not materially affect the American Soo. In the Canadian soos however, the effect on business will be very extensive. The total number of men thrown out of work is $500. Train service over the Algema Central rail- road, owing to the cessation of work in tne woods, will be reduced to one train per week. The Helen and Grace mines at Michipocoton will be shut down, as VIII the Gertrude nickel mine at Sud- bury. The general staff of the com- pany will be reduced from 90 to 15 men.
