A Number of Ottoman Subjects Have

Constantinople, Feb. 25-Advices
from Batoum say the prefect of police
and several leading merchants of that
city have been assaSsinated and that
numbers of Ottoman subjects have
been murdered by Georgian strikers.
The porte has drawn the attention
of the Russian embassy to the situa-
ton and the latter has promised the
necessary protection. Revolutionary
manifestos in favor of republic are
being circulated broadcast at Batoum.
The movement is not confined to the
city workers, but has many adherents
among the peasants and agricultural
classes who claim that the land own
ers are treating them as serfs. The
whole of the Caucasus is said to be
seething with disaffection. Armenians,
Jews and people of other nationalities

THREE PETITIONS ON

OWNERS DISAGREE;
APPEAL TO COUNCIL
Work on West Thirty-seventh Street
Done Under Werdn Administration
and Contract Has Never Been For-
maIly Accepted

Property owners on West Thirty
seventh street have gone to war over
the improvement of that thoroughfare
and promise to air their differences of
opinion in the city council next Mon
day.
Three petitions concerning this street
were filed yesterday with the city
clerk One petition asks that the pro-
ceedings for the proposed grading,
graveling and sidewalking of West
Thirty-seventh street, between Ray
mond and Western avenues, be aban-
doned. Another petition asks that the
request for abandoning proceedings be
denied and a third bears the names of
property owners who signed the pro-
test and ask that their names be
stricken out, declaring that they did
rot understand the Importance of the
work. Both sides are equally strong
and the contest promises to be inter-
esting.
The names of G. E. Anderson & Son
head the protest against having the
street improved and they give as their

French Senator Aroused by Number
of Accidents, Proposes to Seek
Preventive LEGISLATION

PARIS. Sept. 3O.-Automobile acci-
dents are to be made the subject Of a
parliamentary debate. M. Gomot,
senator for the department Of the Puy
de Dome, has decided to question the
government as to the measures 1t
proposes to take to prevent them.
NJ. Gomot disclaims the suggestion
that he is an autophobe. He declares
that grave automobile accidents have
become so numerous that public opin-
ion has been deeply moved, and that
in the towns and on country roads
there is no security for pedestrians and
vehicles.
This state of affairs, he says, calls
for prompt and efficacious remedial
measures. Everybody realizes that
the speed of automobiles is often ex-
cessive.

own water works and many old and
handsome trees. 1t has been known
for years as the old Crank place, hav-
ing been planted by ]. f. Crank, a
pioneer rancher.
