BALKAN ECHOES
Of the Far Eastern Dis
turbance.

Constantinople, Feb. 14.--According
to reports here, the Balkan echoes of
the far eastern disturbances are
the latest being to the effect that
England has threatened to occupy
Lemnos, Tenedos and other islands in
the Aegean sea at the outlet OF the
Hellespont in order to preserve the
neutrality of the Dardanelles.
This would indicate that Great Bri-
tain expects Russia to ignore the
treaty Of Berlin and send her Black
sea fleet through the Dardanelles en-
route to the far east without Great
Britain's permission. Thus in case
of a conflict of arms, Great Britain
would be in the attitude of helping
Japan to fight her battles for Man
churian supremacy,
Besides this formidable opposition
Russia seems to be threatened secret
ly with that of Germany. This be,
came somewhat evident In the report
that Turkeys determination to occupy
Rumelia was prompted by Germany,
and that the threatening of the Bull
garian frontier with something like
100000 troops was decided upon with
the implied consent of Germany.
Both Great Britain and Germany
have, It is believed, agreed to the
policy set forth in Secretary Hays
note urging them to Join the United
States and all the other powers In an
effort to preserve the administrative
entity" Of China in the far east and
the developments in the Balkans are
looked upon here as move against
Russia's position in this part OF the
world.

HEROIC
METHODS EMPLOYED IN
SENATOR HANNA'S CASE.
PULLED FROM HIS BED
Artificial Respiration and
Hypnotic Suggestion.

Washington, Feb. 14.-Exactly
what methods we're employed by the
physicians on Friday to revive sena-
tor Hanna when 1t seemed as II life
had departed and his heart ceased to
beat are known to very few. It was
shortly before o'clock, and after the
sinking spell, which caused SO much
alarm that the three physicians in
attendance were doing everything in
their power to keep life in his body,
when the temperature, which was
then 1O4, and the respiration some
where In the twenties and the pulse
115, suddenly fell, the respiration ap-
parently ceased and the pulse be-
came nil.
In fact, the doctors thought the
heart had ceased to beast entirely and
that the patient was not breathing at
all. They knew that heroic measures
were necessary to revive him If he
was 10 i've.
The patient was pulled out of bed,
thrown upon the floor, the shock be-
Ing intended to cause a reaction. One
Of the physicians took both Of his
wrists in his hands, while another
rested his head upon the abdomen,
and the third placed his mouth at
the senator's ear. The doctor at the
arms began working them up and
down to create artificial respiration,
the physician shouted in his ear at
Ne proper moment: Now breathe"
The nurse meanwhile administering
the oxygen. Four times was this
action repeated, each time the doctor
using hypnotic suggestion, command
ing him to breathe deeper each time
and at the fourth movement Of the
arms and diaphram, the senator, yield.
Ing to the hypnotic command, drew
q long breath and lived again. AS the
respiration was restored, the doctors
carefully lifted the patient back into
bed.

Tuesday evening
At last the fire is under control and
no more danger is reared. But oh, the
awfulness of the scene. enclose a
map of Baltimore. 1t Will give you an
idea of the vast expanse burned over.
Yesterday l took everything in to the
right of Charles street and today went
all around the east. have often heard
of the slums, but never before realized
the awful, awful way in which people
live II is terrible. We got into a
section today where all the signs in
the windows were written either in
Greek or Hebrew.
The only thing | want to see now is
the ruins from the top of the court
house or postoffice. They were saved
by dynamiting the buildings across
the street from them. They are fine,
new buildings like our court house.
The Continental Trust building, l6 sto-
ries high. was built last year and now
Il is a mere shell. If the wind had
not been blowing such a gale there
would not have been SO much damage
done.

STATEMENT THAT THE

Operation.
REPORT MAY Be UNTRUE

London, Feb IA private tele-
gram received from Berlin, in Lon.

undergone an operation on his throat,

at the German embassy, said that he
had had no advices from Berlin in re.
gard to another operation on the
kaiser's throat.
