TO MENACE TURK
Uncle Sam Sends European
Squadron to Smyrna,
PATIENCE is EXHAUSTED
The Demand That American Citizens
in suItan's Domain Be Accorded
Just Treatment Is
Ignored.

A Washington dispatch says: Inc
European squadron has been ordered
to Turkish waters.
The orders were cabled to Rear Ad'
miral Jewell, commander Of the squad
ron at Nice. His ships are the Olym-
pia, Baltimore and Cleveland. 1t is
understood that he will proceed to the
eastern Mediterranean somewhere
near the Black Sea.
The destination of the feet is Smyr'
ma. This place was selected because
it afforded direct cable communication
with Washington and is only aboat
800 miles distant from Constantine
pie.
The trip probably will be made in
three days, and when he arrives there
Admiral Jewell will Put himself III
communication with Minister Lelsh-
man and also report to Washington.

STOPS FLOW OF MONEY.
Gloomy Outlook Caused by Strike ..
Miners In Alabana-War to the
Death Against Unions.

The strike situation in the BirUinS.
ham, Ala, district is becoming painful
ly Ecnotc1ous, and an interview with
one of the most observant merchants
in Birmingham, wt1 has been through
four strikes in the district. gives q
gloomy outlook to the situation. Bus
mess is beginning to feel the effects of
it. Notwithstanding the roseate views
expressed by many that the strike
woud soon be over. This merchant is
not SO hopeful, and expressed the be-
lief that the end Of it would not be
seen before the end Of the year.
Eight thousand men in the district
are out of employment who have been
earning from 81 to SO per day, and
spending it in the city, he contends,
is bound to bring hard times to the
merchants Of the district. There are
now employed by the commercial coal
men about 1900 miners, whose output
is used for commercial purposes only,
not q pound of which can be used by
the furnace men, under the agreement.
Only two-thirds of the United Mine
Workers have employment, besides a
large number of helpers in and about
the mines, who are not members OF
the unicn. Birmingham is largely de-
pendent cn this trade of the miners.
There is very little agricultural trade
in the immediate section, and the good
crops of the country cannot be looked
to to fill up the vacancy in trade caused
by the strike.
That both sizes to the trouble are
determined to fight to finish there is
no doubt, AMI the question at issue is
whether un;onism will be rer~5nized
or disrupted. Both sides to the contro-
versy keep in good humor, apparently,
and no disturbance is expected.

BISHOP POTTER'S BREAK.
New Departure Of New York Preacher
in Defeating Saloon Raises
Storm Of Protest.

The Kansas City branch of the
American Young Peoples Christian
Temperance Union strongly disap.
proves of the ideas Of Bishop Potter,
OF New York, with regard to uplifting
the normal tone Of the saloon. At
meeting Of the union the matter was
discussed and letter was addressed
to the bishop which will be sent 20
him. A copy of the letter follows:
May God have mercy upon your
benighted idea of striking the key-
note Of attack upon the liquor situa-
ton You are rather indorsing key
that opens wide the doors to hell for
the army of 100000 souls who annual
ly leave the Kings highway and STUN
bic into drunkards' graves.
'The present situation across the
water of fifty-fve bishops in the
Church Of England as stockholders In
breweries and distilleries, with this
shameful farce of a bishop in the
great Episcopal church in our own
land, taking leading part in the open
ing eercises Of saloon, closing the
same by singing the doxology, should
make every professed Christian fol-
lower in this great Episcopal church
hang his head in very shame"
The following dispatch from New
York explains the casus belli:
The Rt. Rev. Henry C. Potter, D. d.
LID, bishop Of the Protestant Epis-
copal diocese Of New York, opened
the Subway Tavern" with prayer and
at the conclusion of the openeing exer-
cises the doxoiosy was sung.
The Subway Tavern is saloon,
fashioned and conducted after a new
idea, at the corner of Mulberry and
Bleecker streets, not far from the
Bowery. The bishop made speech
in the barroom, standing on a beer;
case, praised the new saloon and de-.
clared that it represented more prog.
ress toward temperance than the yef.
forts of temperance leaders for fifty
years.
The Subway Tavern has been fin.
anced by certain embers of the City
Club, who believe that, in addition To
the predicted per cent dividends, the
saloon will work a reform among
drinkers. Any man or woman can buy
anything from a glass Of soda water 70
a rye highball in the place so long as
he or she does not treat"

souT4ERNERs VISIT PARKER.
DELEGATION Of Prominent Democratic
Leaders at Esoous.

Almost all of Judge Parker's visitors
at Esopus, N. Y, Thursday, were from
south of Mason and Dixon's line. Uni
ted States Senator Joseph W. Bailey,
Of Texas, was one of the first to ar
rive. He was accompanied by Mrs
Bailey and their son, and left Rose
mount with expressions Of the most
cordial admiration for Judge Parker,
and Of hopefulness as to the outcome
of the campaign.
Governor A. J. Montague, of Vir-
ginia, came down from Lake George,
where for several days he has been
visiting George Foster Peabody. the

RUN ON CHICAGO BANK.

Strikers, Frightened Over False Ru'
NOR, Draw Out Their Little Funds.
The strike in the packing houses at
Chicago was practically lost sight OF
Friday in the excitement attending a
run on the Drover's Trust and Savings
bank, one of the stock yards institu-
tions.
The rush of the depositors to the
bank started early in the day, because
of an unfounded rumor that one of the
packers representatives had drawn his
money from the institution.
The officials of the bank, determined
to meet the emergency, called in ex.
ira tellers. and the place was kept
open until every depositor who pre-
sented himself at the window had been
satisfied.

Sultan Too Dilatcry.

Turkey has been dilly-dallying for
about two years with the United
States. At intervals during that time
Mr.. Leishman HIS requested the sui
tan to grant to American citizens in
Turkey the same rights and privileges
that citizens Of otter nations pos
sess, to abolish Determinations against
American educational religious instl-
tutiors in Turkey and to pay to natu-
ralized American citizens indemnity
for outrages suffered in the Ottoman
empire.
Time after time Mr.. Leishman asked
for a direct audience with the sultan
but was put off. Finally the sultan
agreed to see him, and on July 29th
granted him an audience. From tie
tone of the ministers cab!egram it
was inferred that he had been as
sured that his demands would meet
with favorable consideration.
Accordingly the North American
squadron, under Rear Admiral Bar
ker. which had been at Trieste, was
ordered home. It is now at Gibraltar.
OF course, the news that the Allan
tic squadron has been ordered to re-
turn to the United States was sent
from here to Gonstantinople, and the
shifty diplomats of the Turkish gov
ernment concluded that this govern
ment had left itself unprotected. But
the Turkish government overlooked
the European squadron. also in the
Mediterranean, and its appearance off
the Turkish coast is likely to cause
CONSERVATION.
The navy department announced that
the European squadron is considered
sufficiently strong to enforce a reply
to our demands on Turkey and that
the Atlantic squadron, after assem-
bling at Gibraltar. will proceed across
the ocean under the original instruc.
tions, arriving off this coast about
September 1. In the Olympia, which
was Admiral Dewey's flagship at Ma
Mia, the Cleveland and Baltimore, it
is considered that the United States.
has a force immeasurably superior to
anything that Turkey can muster.

SEVEN CIRLSDR0WN
Meet Tragic Death While
Bathing in River.
AN ACCIDENT MOST SAD
Victims Ranged in Age From Eight to
Fourteen Years-Father OF
One Also Went to
Watery Grave.

While Iathing in the mississippi riy-
er at Alton, ILL.,, Friday night, Michael
Riley, his daughter and six Of the lat
ter's little girl friends were drowned.
One child, who was in the party, was
rescued.
Riley lived near the river in the
southern part of the city and was &C.
customed to bathe on the beach IN
front of his home after his return from
work.
On this occasion his little daughter
begged to go with him and Riley took
her and seven of her little friends to
the beach with him. The children
ranged in age from to IA years.
When they entered the water Riley
bade the children JOIN hands and they
all waded into the water and walked
along the sandbar, which stretches out
into the stream at that point.
They had gone some distance from
the shore when suddenly the whole
party disappeared beneath the water,
having in the darkness stepped from
the sandcar into the deep channel.
Riley, who is said to have been a
good swimmer, is thought to have
been made helpless by the girls cling
ing to him and hampering his efforts
to save them.
The only one in the party to re-
gain the sandbar was Mary Timlny, 8
wears old. The child is unable to tell
how she saved herself beyond the
statement that 81 snatched my hand
loose from the grasp Of the little girl
rext to me, and sccn found that l
could stand up and that tee water
only came to my knees"
The beach where the accident occur
red is practically deserted after night
fall, and the screams of the little TIM
my girl failed to attract any one TO
the scene. The child ran from the
beach and reached her home scream
inc. It was some time after before
her parents could gather an account
of what had occurred.
Immediately Mr.. Timiny organized
a rescue party. Boats were hastily
secured and in a short time four OF
the bodies had been recovered.
According to the account of the acci-
dent given by the little 'Timiny girl
the drowning was caused by the ex-
citment incident to the passage of a
large river steamer.
Before entering the water Riley nao
instructed the little ones to maintain
tight grasp on each others hands, ne
taking a place in the center.
The wash from the steamer created
considerable confusion among the
girls. Mary explains, and in the dark
ness they lost their bearings and be-
fore they were aware Of their danger,
two or three of them had stepped on
the sand bar, into the channel, drag
ging the others with them.
Mary was at the end of the line
and when her companions dragged her
from the sand bar she was nearest to
shoal water, and to that fact she owes
her escape.

BRIDGE COLLAPSE
Fast Flyer Plunges into an
Immense Chasm of Roar
ing Waters Wreaking
Most Appalling Loss
of Life.

A special from Pueblo, COiOraQO,
says: One of the most terrible catas-
trophies of the Arkansas Valley hap
pened at an early hour Sunday night
when train No. II of the Missouri
Pacific, known as the Worlds Fair
Flyer" which runs over the Denver
and Rio Grande tracks between Pueb-
10 and Denver, crashed through a
bridge over an arroyo or dry creek,
near Eden, about eight miles from
Pueblo.
It is estimated that Of the 125 pas
sengers on board the Inflated train,
between so and 100 lost their lives.
either under the waters of the raging
torrent, or beneath the wrechage.
Upon the news reaching Pueblo, a
special train bearing ali the available
surgeons and the Rio Grande and Mis-
souri Pacific officials left for the
scene.
Horror Irdeseribacle.
The wreck proves TO have been one
of the greatest railroad disasters IN
the history of the country. Two
crowded passenger cars and a bag
gage car were engulfed in the torrent,
ard so far as known only three OF the
occupants Of these cars escaped ~ath.
Fortunately two sleeping cars and a
diner. completing the train, remain
~ "a
abyss, and none Of their occupants
were killed Or injured.
The exact number of victims proba-
bly, never will be definitely ascertain
ed, for the treacherous sands are drift
ing over the Scdies. Searching for
the dead was begun about midnight
On an extensive scale. All corpses
found were removed to Pueblo and
placed in four morgues.
At eight o'clock Monday night sew
enty-six bodies had been recovered,
and of these fifty had been identified.
During the day bodies were recovered
all the way along Fountain river Onto
which the waters Of Dry Creek enter
ed) from the scene OF the wreck to
Pueblo, more than eight miles from
the point where the disaster occurred,
and it is probable that some may be
recovered even further down stream.
How Cisaster Occurred.
Two carloads of human freight
plunged into the raging torrent that
destroyed the trest!e over the usually
dry arroyo. known as Steels Hollow.
Two sleeping cars and the dining car
stopped at the brink OF the hungry
chasm filed with q boiling, seething
current that quickly snuied out prob
ably 100 lives. So quietly had the Ca
tastrophe been enacted that the occu-
pants of the three cars remaining on
the track did not realize that an acci-
dent had occurred until they alightei
from the crai2.
Then they were utterly powerless
to render assistance to the victims
who had disappeared in the rushing
waters. On the lookout for danger.
warned by the squaliy clouds and
heavy rains to the north, Engineer
Charles Hindman was running, eau
tiously about Is miles an hour as he
approached the arroyo, which was
spanned by a bridge ninety-six feet in
length. The condition Of the bridge
was not known until the locomotive,
one of the monster passenger type,
had nearly crossed. Fireman Frank
Mayfeld. with torch that the engin-
eer and fireman had turning to ascer-
tain the condition Of the track, was
