AMBASSADORS FEAR SULTAN
Representative of Powers at Com
stantinOpIe win Not Discuss the
Macedonian situation.

CONSTANTINOPLE Nov. 4-(speclal
Cablegram to The Bee. THE Turks continue
TO show themselves recalcitrant regarding
the demands Of the powers but a more
optimistic feeling Is beginning to prevail
again after the pessimism of ths past week.
Il is believed that within the next few days
the Porte VIII begin to make concessions
which will be equivalent to acceptance in
principle and that the further negotiations
will be concerned chiefly with matters of
detail. II is. however, possible that the
wish may be father to the thought, for
there can be no doubt that the powers
would find themselves In grave difficulties
II the sultan were to persist in his present
attitude. The reluctance of the different
ambassadors to take upon themselves the
task Of coercing the Turkish government
is admirably illustrated by what took place
At the Selamlik recently. II was originally
proposed that the ambassadors should go
In body to the sultan and urge him to
give way, but the suggestion was dropped.
II was then thought that the Austrian am
bassador, the doyen. would be the fitting
person to make the representations, but to
this Baron Calice not unnaturafly demurred.
1t was finally left open to any ambassador
who wished 70 expostulate with his mai
esty on his own account. The result was
Iuat' altnougn three anlDaSsadors-tne AUS
trian, the German and the Itslian--had in
terviews with the sultan the demand for
financial control was not so much as men
toned
A confidential secretary Of the sultan paid
visit of two hours to Baron Marschall
Won Bieberstein to ask his advice as to the
course to be followed. The ambassa dor
strongly urged that the demands Of the
powers should be conceded. This visit is
copsidered as q hopeful sign. especially as
It follows upon vain attempts made by
Tewfik Pasha TO dntach the European
powers from the concert. This optimism,
however, is by no means universal and
many competent observers hold that the
unanimity OF the powers Will need to be
demonstrated more energetically before
even the principle OF financial control is ac-
cepted.

JEWISH COLONY IN ABYSSINlA
Two Negroes Holding Hebrew Faith
Make "a visit to French
Jews.

LONDON, Nov 4.-(Special Cablegram to
The Bee 1.-THE Jewish Chronicle prints a
letter which the remarkable set of Israeli
ties who have been settled in Abyssina
and are known as Falashas, have sent to
their coreligionsts in Europe and Palestine
by Jewish traveller NJ. Taitlovitch.
The letter, which is written in the Ethio-
plan dialect, states that while in the reigns
of the Emperors Theodore and John at
tempts were made forcibly to convert the
Falashas, the Emperor Menelik allows
them to remain true to the faith OF their
fathers OF their 200 synagogues. however,
only thirty remain, and all of their litera-
ture has been burned by the Dervishes. Dur
ing the time of the Dervishes they write, a
frightful number of people died from
famine Two young Falashas accompanied
the travellers 10 Paris and were the objects
of general curiosity in the principal French
synagogue on the day of Atonement as
French Israelties were generally unaware
Of the existence of negro Jews.

BRITISH WANT SQUARE DEAL" /"
Fruit Growers AlIege They Are Not
Given Fair Treatment by
Railroads.

LONDON, Nov. 4-(SpeclaI CabIegram to
The Bee.)-W. w. Berry of Faversham.
speaking at the final conference of the
British fruit growers, convened by the Ma
tional Fruit Growers federation, said that
during the last thirty years the acreage OF
orchards in the United Kingdom had grown
from 14s.0OO to $4,000 acres, which was an
increase Of 50 per cent.
Railway companies had repeatedly said
that as quantities Of goods carried increased
so the charges for carriage could be re.
duced. and on that showing fruit growers
had good claim for consideration.
Mr. Monro, president of the National
Federation OF Trade associations, said that
by unfair rates the railway companies were
Gripping a great industry. and il was time
the government took the matter up. Sir Al.
bert Rollit NJ. p, who presided. in closing
the discussion, said that he thought oc.
casion had arisen for further legislation
Five per cent would cover the risk TO the
railways. but they frequently charged so per
cent over the owners risk rate
He remembered once hearing a railway
manager define a reasonable rate as ''what
the trader would bear without breaking.
but he hoped tht the companies would rea,
lize that greater facilities and cheaper rate,
mean prosperity both for the railways anc
for the traders.

LIGHT LOCAL REGISTRATION
Total for the City Estimated at Some
where In NeighbOrhOOd of
Fifteen Thousand.

Rain and indifference on the part OF the
voters played hob with the plans OF the
party managers yesterday, and the returns
from the registration received by Secretary
Greevy of the republican county committee
last night indicated a very light attendance
al the booths.
Thirteen precincts had reported to Mr.
Greeyy at midnight. At that time he
figured that for Omaha the addition TO the
polling lists would be about 100 TO the pre-
cinct This on the basis of hfty-four
precincts. would bring the total OF the
day up TO something above 500. The total
for the first two days was little over
10000, indicating that the total registration
for the city will be in the neighborhood Of
1900. compared with a total OF q, 900 for
last falls election. The committee head
quarters will be kept open all day today
to tabulate the returns, which will be
brought in by the precinct committeeman.
The returns received by Mr.. Greevy last
night indicate that the republicans are
holding the customary advantage in point
of designated party afiliation. The secre-
tary expressed himself as very much en-
couraged on this point

BLAME LAID ON ARMENIANs
Masters and Men Both Held RE-
spOnsibIe for Trouble in
OIL Fields.

TIFLIs Nov. A-(special Csblegram TO
The Bee)-The attitude of the foreign Oil
producers at Baku during the recent trou-
bles is variously explained. The oil in
dustry had for the last two years suffered
considerably from a succession of strike
which have been due to the incres'
influence of the revolutionary parties
cially OF the social democrats among e
workmen. The armed labor is almost alto
gether in the hands Of the Armcnians and
Russians, while the unskiIled, or black
labor, is performed by Tartars and Per-
SLAMS The latter, the Mahomedans, have
taken comparatively little part in the strike,
for they are mentally little developed and
are slower to grasp the meaning Of such
movements. The strikes then have been
due 10 the Russians and Armenians. The
Armenans themselves have I'm some cases
admitted that the most turbulent element
IS their fellow countrymen In addition TO
the losses produced by the strikes the
foreign oil producers have TO encounter the
commercial rivalry of the Armenians. The
latter form the most compact group on
the fields and although they command only
about % per cent of the total production,
they have succeeded in securing pre-
dominating influence in tho Soviet Seza.
AS owners their interests are identical with
tha foreigners, but as Armenlans they
hold together against the foreigners. Thus
tho Armenians are not only a commercial
rival. but a turbulent element among the
workmen. At a time like the present.
when Armenian property has suffered
enormously and the lives of Armenian
workmen have been sacrificed in large num-
bers national feeling naturally obliterates
the antagonism between masters and men
and the Armenians form a single group.
As IT happened, the determination of the
socialist revolutionaries coincided with the
interests Of the Armenian oil producers
who were unable to begin work owing to
! the hostility of the Tartars, and were
| therefore not ill-plessed to see their rivals
in the same position. 1t is moreover quite
| possible that the Armenian element among
/ the socialist revolutionaries may have been
| mainly instrumental in inducing the group
| to forbid work. and they cannot have been
unconscious of the fact that such pro-
| hibiton would not be unwelcome to their
! fellow countrymen.

DIR. M'LEOD OUT ON BOND
warrant Issued for Arrest of Mrs.
Mary 5. Dean, Nurse at the
ROxbury House.

BOSTON, Nov. 4.-Except for the arraign-
ment Of DR.. Percy d. Mcleod, his release
later on very heavy bail and the granting
of a warrant for the arrest Of Mrs, Mary s.
Dean, the missing nurse of the ROxbury
house, comparatively few additional facts
developed today regarding the death of
Miss Susanna Geary as the result of an H.
legal operation at private hospital and the
finding of portions of her dismembered body
in two dress suitcases in the haTbor.
The police made a fruitless search for
Mrs. Dean. Three business men furnished
$50 900 bail for DR. Mcleod and the harbor
police dragged all day In vain for the
satchel which, it is said, contains the head
OF the unfortunate girl, the only portion OF
her body that has not been recovered.

RIPoN TALKS OF POLITICS
Says He Does Not See Conditions
FOretOId Two Years Ago by
Cham berlniu.

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 4.-(special Cablegram
to The Bee.)--Interviewed here regarding
the political situation Lord Ripon said that
the policy of the government and its friends
at the present moment was rather of a
singular kind. Two years ago they were
right in the midst of raging agitation;
Mr.. Chamberlain was going about the coun-
try explaining that the country was ruined
entirely, and that they must turn TO him
for protection and salvation. He did not
observe that the people were turning in
that direction ut the present time.
Regarding the calling of the colonial con-
ference he said that If It was called to-
gether at the present time and under pres
ent circumstances a would be a seandalous
proeeedioE. becaIlst ~ seoytidlae an attempt
to use the representatives Of the colonies
and the colonial ministers for electioneerins
purposes. He had a great interest in
colonial questions and he denounced as
powerfully as he could any attempt to
bring questions of colonial interest within
the sphere of party politics. 1t had been
hinted to him that perhaps after all II
would be just as we'll for the conference tc
meet, since one of the first questions that
would naturally arise at such a conference
especially so far as the Australian colonies
were concerned was the Introduction OF
Chinese labor He would. therefore, be
curious to see whether the colonial confer
ence after all ever came off

LION AND BEAR AT PEACE
Great Britain and Russia Reaching an
Agreement in Eard'to
Asia.

ST. PETERSBURG, Nov. 4.-(Specal Ca
blegram to The Bee.)-It is understood on
authority on which every dependence may
be placed that the negotiations which have
/ been in progress between Russia and Great
Britain with view to the final settlement
of outstanding questions between the Two
countries have made such favorable prog
ress that agreement is already In sight.
Roughly speaking. the basis of the agree
ment is an undertaking on the part of
Great Britain to meet on certain conditions
tho desire of Russia to, establish a port in
the Persian gulf
The bulk of the trade routes through
Persia are almost entirely in Russian hands
and further developments are being entered
upon with the tacit acquiescence of the
British government. One or these develop
| ments includes the establishment of large
number of additional branches of the Rus
I so-Persian bank, whose agents are now To-
| Gated in every trade center in the shah 5
| dominion.
| The acquiescence of Great Britain in these
| developments and in their sequel on the
| Persian seaboard has been secured by an
undertaking on the part of Russia not to
proceed with its forward movement on the
Turkestan border.
| In this movement is bound up the crux of
the Central Asian problem, and the removal
| Of the tension that has existed so long in
that region will mark the beginning of a
new and happier era in Aslatic politics
! The understanding which is on the eve of
completion is in its broad general outlines
in harmony with the entente suggested oy
the late Lord Salisbury some ten years
ago. Expressed in sentence.1 it means
peace in Asia.
In Persia 1t means commercial freedom
for Russia and political freedom for Great
Britain. Neither will interfere with the
other nor will Afghanistan be any longer
a bone of contention between the two DOW.
