End of Turkish Crisis.

Paris, Dec. 6.-The Turkish crisis is
considered practically ended. The
second note sent by the Sultan yesterday
to ambassadors of the powers which have
been demanding international control OF
Mac edonia finances is understood to con-
tain suggestions whereby on entente can
be arranged along the lines of comprO-
mise formerly proposed under which the
powers make concessions in regard TO
the form 10 which their demand is word
ed while the Sultan really yields in fact
to all the demands made upon him. The
ambassadors are now preparing new
note expressing their original demands
in the form desired by the Sultan. This
note will be presented Immediately and
the Sultan's acceptance is assured in adj
vance. The plan Of compromise sug-
gested was that the representatives of
the powers who will take charge of the
finances of Macedonia shall be
called civil egents instead Of Fl
nancial controllers. The powers, how.
ever, will be as broad as originally de-
manded for them. BY having the rep
resentatives designated as civil agents,
instead of controllers, the Sultan is able
to save his dignity, while the powers
really gain all they have insisted upon.

Mrs. Rogers Nearing the Gallows.


Windsor, VT. Dec. 6.-Without hope,
but apparently Indifferent to her fate,
Mrs. Mary Rogers sits in her cell in
Windsor prison and awaits her execution
on Friday. Most of the time she is lost
10 thought, aud pays only the slightest
heed to the movements of the guard in
front of the cell door, The guards say
she appears more like some animal
caught and beaten into submission. Dull
and seemingly without human sensations,
she has become study for criminolo.
gists. She would never comprehend any
great happiness, and she could never
feel any great mental pain. One in
stinct, and that vicious and strong one,
which manifested itself when she was
girl of fourteen, dominated and controls
her whole being. 1t brought her to do
murder at nineteen, and within the year
it caused her 10 uniasten the lock OF the
inner door of her cell, with pair of
scissors that she might feel thecaresses of
prison trusty who had the freedom OF
the corridors.
Mary Rogers will not die an expectant
mother. Reports that stork was how
ering over the prison have proved to be
unfounded. DIR. Dean Richmond the
prison physician, has mad an iuvesti-
CATION, and it was made known this
morning that only one life would be
taken when Mary Rogers swings from
the gbbet. The real preparation for the
hanging will take place tomorrow, when
the scaffold will be erected, and the
rope tested. The deputy Sheriff's who
will carry out the actual work of the
hanging, will rehearse their duties
on the scaffold without the protagonist
of Friday. There will be the enveloplng
of dummy figure in the black sack,
which opens at the top and is gathered
at the neck with cord, and the rehear-
sal of signals and the springing of the
trap. These details will be gone over
with until the deputy Sheriffs who, from
their appearance would feel more COM

Chicago, Dec. 6-Another petition to
Gov. Bell of Vermont for executive
clemency for Mrs. Mary Rogers, was
unexpectedly presented while he was at
the speakers table of the dinner of the
New England Society of Chicago, last
evening. Mrs. Minona Fitch Jones,
member of the society, presented the
paper. Bell declared he would give no
more attention to it than to any other
communications received while here.

The Russian Revolution.

ST. Petersburg, Dec. 5.-A discovery
has recently been made which shows
how the revolutionary leaders through
out the country were enabled to keep in
close communication after the general
telegraph strike had been declared. Be-
fore the strike began telegraph em-
ployees connected many OF the revolt
tionary headquarters with the principal
wires and laid additional wires and all
necessary apparatus as though in the
ordinary course of their work. When
the strike was proclaimed and the opera
tors lett their keys, while official COM
munications were cut of, the revolution
lists were still able to communicate with
each other. The fact that such com.
munication had been established was
accidentally discovered in st. Petersburg
aud an investigation was made which
shovel that many of the headquarters
in other cities were thus fitted up with
instruments for receiving and trans
hitting messages. The troops have
been ordered to cut all the wires ope-
rated by re7olutionayies. but it is very
doubtful whether they were able to 10.
cate all the headquarters and it is proba-
BILE that the revolutiGnists are still work
ing some lines Undecided.

o'clock this morning that Patrick liz in

that he appears to feel certain that he

WHEN the insurance and other in
yestigatious were begun and when it was
shown that the rich corporations had
made big contributions to the republi-
can campaign fund which helped elect
Mr.. Roosevelt, thus proving the charges
made in this regard by Judge Parker in
1904, which charges were denied by the
President. the Gazette stated that up to
that time the apology due Judge Parker
by Mr.. Roosevelt had not been made.
Now the Philadelphia Record, in an
article headed "a Roosevelt OppOr-
tunity," says:
The allegation is now made that
eleven corporations in New York city
paid into the Roosevelt campaign fund
in 1904 1925, 000 From this statement
which in so far as the contributions OF
the great life insurance companies are
concerned is already matter OF proof
il would seem that Judge Alton b. Par
ker was right in denouncing the solicits-
ton and use Of corporation money in the
presidential campaign in aid of the re-
publican candidates, and that Theodore
Roosevelt was wrong in his impassionen
denial Mr.. Roosevelt may have been
misinformed but he can now readily as
certain the truth from Mr.. CortelyOu or
Chairman Bliss 1t is not too late tor
him to make acknowledgment of his
error and to bring his weight to bear in
putting an end to an admitted evil. The
corrupt use of money to determine the
result of elections is crime that strikes
at the very root of free government.

Accident 90 a Locomotive.

Plainfeld, N. j., Dec. 6.-Au unusual
accident occurred to the Baltimore and
Ohio Royal Blue Line express, west
bound, near this city this morning.
While travelling at the rate Of sixty miles
an hour the pin holding the driving rod
on the left side of the engine fell out,
causing the rod to drop off one of the
driving wheels, and revolve at enormous
speed. The cab on that side of the loco
motive was smashed, but fortunately the
fireman was not in his seat and thus
escaped injury if not death. One of the
massive driving wheels became wobbly
and was about to fall off when the engi-
neer brought the train to a stop within q
short distance of the station in this city.
Later another engine was secured and
after a delay ofabout half an hour the
train proceeded. The passengers were
not even shaken up and knew nothing
OF the accident until the train had stop

pprs,npvr RoosEyELr's last message

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT last message
10 Congress contains a number Of prac-
tieal and common-sense suggestions.
Among other things he said
This government stands for manhood
first and for business only as an adj
innct of manhood. In such republic
= ours the one thing that we cannot al
lord to neglect is the problem of turn
ing on. decent citizens. This govern
,aent is not and never shall be govern
"a by plutocracy. This government
not and never shall be governed by
q mob.
These propositions will naturally meet
with the approval of all who have the
interest of the country at heart. Man
hood should be the great Gesideratum I;
business secondary to it. But the pro-
blem of turning out decent citizens is one
which has perplexed every country on
the globe. In order to bring about such a
result it is not only necessary for those
in official positions to set the proper
example for the people they represent,
but it is equally incumbent upon the in
diyidual citizen to walk in the paths
of rectitude and vie with rulers
in bringing about proper conditions
amoLg the masses of the people. While
a man may repeat the exclamation OF
Cain to the effect that lie is not his
brothers. keeper, there is certain re-
sponsibiity which rests upon each and
every one in his conduct toward his
neighbor. The President says this cOun-
try must not be ruled by the opulent,
neither by mobs. 1t should certainly
not be placed under the control of either.
While but few believe that those pos
sessing riches are necessarily deDarred
from heaven, the fact is apparent that
wealth and the power it brings often
cause those having great means at their
disposal to misuse others who are forced
u battle EVERY day for a livelihood.
Such conduct every now and then brings
about mob rule, and a country is long
time recovering from such commissions
Il is incumbent upon rich and poor alike
80 be good citizens. Both classes are
but performing their duty when they
honestly strive to carry out the prlncl-
pies of the golden rule. The reverse
however, is too often in evidence. Many
of the opulent imagine that power must
be necessary adjunct to wealth,
and when they obtain it they fail to use
it wisely and for the public good; hence
the ugly spirit occasionally manifested
by those less favored by Providence.
