this confidential report that had been
offered by direction of Secretary Hitch

times, being hard pressed, written to
Benson for money. The latter inVaria-

Judge Campbell and the lawyers for
the defense are inclined to attach much
Importance to Harlan's testimony to-

committed no crime, as he could not
have bribed mere clerk, who, in fact,
had no official duties, possessed by a

culpable the Secretary Of the Interior
is equally so, as he entered into the

sented the savings of years, md was
earned by her taking in washing. Mar
tin went to Mexico, but few months
ago came to Los Angeles and opened A

Germany Regards
War in Balkans
as Certain.
Large Order for
Rifles Placed by
Bulgaria.

BERLIN, Feb. 23.-The conviction of
| the German Government that war be-
tween Bulgaria and Turkey is within
war in the Far East, it is asserted, has
changed the temper of the Turks from
acquiescence in the reform plans of the
powers in Macedonia to positive in
tractability. The Bulgarian Govern
! ment four days after the outbreak of
the war placed an order with Loewe &
Co., the Mauser rifle and cartridge
makers, of Berlin, which order was
doubled Friday last. Loewe & Co., as
usual with the German arms makers
notified the German Government.
The preparations for Emperor Will
liam's Mediterranean trip continue, and
it was said to-day that the Empress
was so much improved in health that
she probably would go with him. But
even now the threatening Balkan situ-
alton may require the sovereign's pres
ence in Berlin.
PARIS, Feb. 23.-As a result Of rep
resentations made to the Porte during
the past few days, it is asserted that
Turkey, as we'll as the Balkan States.
recognizes the Austro- Russian reforms
as being in force, and will aid in their
execution 1t is added thai Turkey
and the Balkan States expressed their
appreciation of the fact that the Far
Eastern war did not modify the Bal
kan situation with regard to the con-
cert of Europe. No friction exists, all
the powers being impressed with the
importance of acting together in order
to prevent war.
The Temps this afternoon publishes
a special dispatch from Belgrade,
which declares that the Albanian re-
volt has not been exaggerated and by
no means is suppressed.
According to a review of the situa-
ton made for the Temps by a corre-
spondent at Sofia, Bulgaria desires
peace, but is prepared for war, the
country having been turned into an
armed camp and warlike proclamations
having been issued to the army.
ROME, Feb. 23.-The situation in the
Balkans is considered here to have i'm
proved to-day from the fact, among
other things, that Turkey has ordered
seven torpedO-boat destroyers from
Italian shipbuilders. 1t is believed she
would not do this if she thought Sc
rious trouble in the Balkans to be i'm
minent
CONSTANTINOPLE, Feb. 2s-M.
Natchivech, the Bulgarian agent here,
who has returned to his post, brought
back the formal assurance to the Porte
that the Sofia Government intended to
maintain an absolutely correct attitude
with regard to Macedonian affairs. |
There is now more conciliatory ten
dency in the Turkish official world to-
ward the Bulgarian demands, and this |
creates the hope that the relations be- /
tween the two countries will be i'm
proved.
GENOA, Feb. 23.-The United States
cruiser Brooklyn, with Rear Admiral
Cotton on board, left here to-day, going
in an easterly direction. She leaves un-
der sealed orders, which are to be
opened only when she is at sea.

SOME STRONG POINTS

NEW YORK, Feb. 23.-At to-day's
hearing of the charge against Benson,
Harlan, clerk in the land division of
the Interior Department, under sharp
examination by Attorney ]. c..

Hitchcock, acting in conjunction with
Secret Service Agent Burns, to send

Ian admitted that he did not have such
a report. but merely followed the verbal
instructions of his superiors. He tes-
titled further that the work he per-
formed for Benson was done after Of

he was doing any wrong and that Ben
son at no time asked him to perform
any wrongful act.
