ONLY POOLING US
SAYS GERMAN PAPER
Turkey is Alleged TO Have Con-
ceded Nothing.
Withdrawal Of War Ships Was Pre-
mature-It Is only Turkeys
Way, Says the Paper.
SUBSEQUENT ACTION UNCERTAIN.

Berlin, August 1.-the Frank
furter Zetung asserts that the port
has only INDUCED in its characteristic
sharp practice in his dealings with
the United States in the matter OF the
latter's demands for proper treatment
of the American schools in Turkey.
Minister Leischman, the paper
says. thanked the Porte for satisfac-
tory settlement of differences and re-
ceived reply that he had misuuder-
stood the Turkish note, which did not
concede the American demands.
The paper adds: 1.-THE withdrawal
Of the American wsrship is thus
premature. Turkey is only fooling
the Americans. according to her tradi-
tionsl methods.

Tragic Feature of the Camp
Near Jackson, Tenn.
Prof. Schwalbe Killed and a Number Rem
dered Uneonscious-Lightning
Followed Wire.
NO OTHER INJURIES ARE FATAL.

Jackson, Tenn. Aug. ia shadow
fell upon the general joy at Harvey Han
nah Camp yesterday afternoon over
Gov. Frazier's visit. An electric storm
came up and bolt descending struck
one of the tents occupied by the band.
Prof VIM. NJ. Schwalbe, of Jackson, was
instantly killed and his wife was rem.
dered unconscious for some hours, final.
ly recovering. The lightning appears TO
have followed the electric wires with
which the tents are lighted and shock
ed different persons in about a dozen
tents Those most affected were Misses
Lille Pickett, of Memphis, slightly
shocked; Miss Mamie Baugh, of Frank
lin, in the officers tent, rendered uncon-
scious for a few moments; Capt. +. l.,
Beare, of Humboldt, unconscious several
moments; Lieut.. Wells, of Jackson, sew
erely shocked; Capt. Parham, of Mem
phis, unconscious. Others throughout
the camp received slight shocks. The
cause of the different shocks is believed
to have been the inferior insulation Of
the electric-light wire. Prof. Schwalbe
was a well-known musician who has
lived here some time. His son fill
ing a vacancy in the Industrial School
Band of Nashville and his parents were
visiting him.

MUCH TOBACCO Is
BURNED A? MURRAY
The g. w. Downs Plant Destroy
ed There Last Night.
Had the Finest Machinery Possible to
Buy-Mr. Downs Was In Paducah
at the Time.
LOSS WILL BE QUITE HEAVY.

The George w. Downs Rehandling
Plant, at Murray, Ky. one of the largest
tobacco concerns in this end of the
state, burned to the ground last night
between IL and u o'clock entailing a
loss of many thousand dollars the exact
loss being impossible to estimate UNI
til several days. The origin of the fire
is unknown, but it is supposed to have
caught in the fire department.
The owner of the plant, Mr.. Downs,
was in Paducah asleep and did not know
of the fire until this morning when he
was awakened in his room at the New
Richmond hotel by Col. Bud Dale, and
given the first news he had of it.
Mr.. Downs hastily donned his clothes
and caught the morning train TO Murray.

insurance and had between 10000 and
100000 pounds of fine tobacco in his
house, and also fine machinery. The
building he sold about one year ago and
the loss of this will not fall on his
shoulders.
"The Downs house was one Of the
finest plants | have ever been in" Col.
Dale declared this morning. 1T was
only three weeks ago that l went to
Murray and in person with Mr.. Downs,
who is an old friend of mine, inspected
the entire plant. The machinery was
the finest procurable and was practical
~ new. The loss will amount to many
thousand dollars"

Several Arrests in This Section
Of the State.
A MOonshine Battle-The New Ruling
at Frankfort Against the
State College.
INTERESTING STATE HAPPENINGS

Frankfort, KY, Aug. 10 State
Auditor Hager has addressed letter
to the attorney general asking his
opinion Of the constitutionality of an
act OF the last general assembly max
ing an appropriation annually Of s16,-
900, to the Agricultural and Meohan.
icsl College of Kentucky to liquideate
the present Indebtedness of the college
and to provide additional income for
meeting the annual expenditures.
The auditor doubts the legality of
the act, ss did Governor Beckham last
winter when he suffered it to become
law without his approval, because of
the earnest solicitation of the officers
Of the college, who thought the matter
oonstitutionslity should be left to the
courts.
This is the third annual appropria-
tion Of $4,000 which Auditor
Hsger has turned down because he
doubted their constitutionslity. the
other two cases being that of the Ken
lucky Childrens' Home Society and
the annual appropriation for the
Kentucky Breeders Association for
state fair.

VENEZUELAN TROUBLE.

Washington, Aug. l9.-The sd-
ministration is alarmed over the sem
sational turn Of affairs in Venezuela.
The reports that British subjects EN-
ployed by the New York and Bermu-
da asphalt company were forced by
government troops to remain at work
under President Oastro's receiver,
and that some Of them were badly
treated, coupled with the dispatch
Of the British cruiser Tribune TO Ls
Guarya, have changed the whole sit.
ustion and given it q more nervous
phase.
1t is considered certain that the
commander Of the Tribune will take
steps to secure full satisfaction. II
Castro does not take mp the question
quickly and properly, 1t is thought
that the British captain may land ma
rines ana march them to the asphalt
lakes to arrest and punish the
offenders. There would be no dispo-
sition in the state department to resent
such action, but ii would open up
possibilities which might force the ad.
ministration to assume firm ana de
cided stand toward Venezuela, there
fore the developments of the next few
days will be intently watched.
