SPEECH OF THE CANDIDATE
FIRST BRIDGE TO BE CROSSED
IN NOVEMBER.

Danville, ILL.,. Aug. 16.-The conven-
tior of the Eighteenth Illinois congress
sional district was called at l o'clock
and renominated Joseph G. Cannon for
the eighteenth consecutive time, being
the seventeenth nOminatiOl by acCl2-
nation.
There was the greatest enthusiasm,
especially over the prospective candi-
dacy Of Mr. Cannon for president. Mr.,
Cannon had not intended to launch a
boom for president at This convention,
but the pressure of his supporters was
so great as to sweep away his wishes
i'm this matter.
Mr.. CannOn's supporters IN his own
district will likely urge the state con-
vention to make similar endorsements.
There seems to be little doubt that this
will be done.

BALKAN TROUBLE
AGAIN MENACING
Old Question of Domination
Between Greeks and Bull
garianS Revived.
REGARDED AS SERIOUS
POWERS INTERESTED IN STOP
PING THE FIGHT.

Sofia, Bulgaria. Aug. 16.-The anti
Greek movement I'm Roumania, and es-
pecially in Bulgaria, is daily assuming
greater proportions and threatens to
become a serious danger TO peace. The
Bulgarian government it appears will
be forced to take exceptional measures
to terminate the disturbances which
are due to anti-Greek feeling, with
which the entire population of the prin-
cipality is imbued.
The cause OF this feeling is the his
torical competition between Greece and
Bulgaria for domination in the Bal
kans. which was recently rewakened
and stimulated by their rivalry i'm Ma
cedonia-rivalry which il is alleged has
been artificially encoura ged by the
Turkish authorities-and particularly
by the atrocities of the Greek bands.
Church Is Blamed.
It is asserted that the patriarchal
church at Constantinople has acted as
an accomplice of these bands, with the
object of forcing the peaceful popula-
ton OF Bulgaria to join the patriarchal
church. and that the propaganda has
been carried out in Bulgaria by the or
gans of the patriarchal church, which
openly raised SUBSCRIPTIONS Tor the pen
eft OF the Greek patriotic societies, and
also sought TO infame the Bulgarian
national spirit. The patriarch of Con-
stantinople nominated the Greek bishop
at Varna in a manner which was re-
garded by Bulgarians as insulting and
humiliating, and the Bulgarian author
tiles refused to permit the bishop 20
occupy the see without the approval
OF the Bulgarian government.
Resented by PopuIace.
The incident aroused intense public
feeling and resulted i'm attacks on the
Greek church, school and monastery.
which were followed by scenes of dis
order in every district possessing patri-
archal religious establishments. Tn ;
trouble at Anchralos arose from a
meeting called to protest against the
action of the Greek bands I'm Macedo-
mia. The Greeks armed themselves I'M
der the leadership OF the bishop and at
tackled the peasants coming in to attend
a meeting. lie peasants burned most
Of the town. and numbers were killed
and wounded in the fighting which en-
sued. It is feared that there will be a
renewal OF the outbreak at Philippopo-
lis on Sunday next. Aug. 10. for which
date another anti-Greek meeting has
been called.

st. Petersburg, Aug. 16.-The war of ter

of the Social Revoluuonists declared i'm

From all parts of the empire the tele-
graph brings the same story of attacks

for the moment the campaign of the ter

SHIPPERS TEMPT
THE RAILROADS
Melville {. ingalls, Discusses
the Rate Bill in a Speech
to Bankers.
LITTLE GOOD IS EXPECTED
PEOPLE WARNED AGAINST Elk
TRAVAGANCE.

Putin Bay, O., Aug. 16.-M. f. In
gals of Cincinnati delivered the prin-
cipal address at tOdays session of the
Ohio Bankers association.
Mr.. Ingalls, is president of the Mer
chants National hank of Cincinnati,
and chairman of the Big Four railroad,
and created something of a stir by de-
claring that the greatest menace to
American business and banking inter
ests today is the various trade laws
which have been passed, particularly
the Hepburn and the Sherman acts. The
United States, he said, had just started
in it's development and this develop
ment depends upon wise and generous
encouragement. Yet, under the con-
structiOn placed upon the Sherman act
by the courts, a business man who
comes to any agreement with competi-
tors is guilty of an act in restraint of
trade and is liable to Imprisonment.
Tempted by Shippers.
Mr. ingalls, believed that the common
people would suffer more from such a
suppression Of business as a result of
this law than any one else. Mr.. Ingalls,,
describing the new Hepburn bill, said
it was the shippers who tempted the
railroads He thought the laws re-
Gently passed by congress and numer-
Gus state legislatures ought 10 be en-
titled laws in restraint of the COM
merce of the country"
Mr.. Ingalls, predicted that within two
years the halls of congress would be
filled with shippers demanding a
change in the recently enacted stat
utes.
Warning Against Extravaganza.
The speaker also touched upon the
banking situation and said he was con-
WINGED that the United States had the
! best currency system in the world, but
! that some changes were needed.
Prosperity in America, he said was
now at great height. He sounded
not of warning against the growing
/ tendency of extravaganza among the
I American people. AS an illustration lie
pointed to the fact that 100000, 900 had
| been spent for automobiles in the last
three or four years and this was but
one item.

the belief being that the Bulgarian
government Is making every effort TO
prevent clashes, though thus far with
out success How TO bring about per-
manent peace i'm the Balkans is one of
the subjects Great Britain has not lost
sight Of despite the rebuffs received IN
the past
There is but one thing to stop these
excuses said an official of the for
eign office today, land that is a final
settlement Of the whole Macedonian
question. on which Great Britain is
working necessarily. The prospects of
success are now brighter than ever, as
the powers are beginning to see that
Great Britain's proposal for financial
reforms are the only solution of the
question.
Other Powers Interested.
Great Britain has been receiving the
support of France and Italy for some
time, and Russia may now be added TO
the group OF reformers. Foreign Sec
retary Grey has just sent note to the
porte stating that the latter's last two
notes with reference to the 2 per cent
increase in the customs duties were not
eccepL<-e. and adding that Great Brit
ain was discussing the question with
other powers. What Great Britain sug-
Rests is that before the powers agree
fo an increase i'm the customs they get
assurance that Turkey Will devote the
revenue obtained from the increase to
reforms in Macedonia"
The official further explained that the
recent attacks on Greeks in Bulgaria
were reprisals for attacks upon Bul-
garians by Greek bands in Macedonia
and that until order is restored there
the disturbances will continue through
out the Balkans.
