He may do so tomorrow, but if he does it will be strong ly against the wishes of his friends who realize that the best thing the President can do is to let the matter die out. What caused the Presidents sudden change from a narrow court review to the broad est review possible is still a topic of ami mated discussion here. Among other causes advanced is one to the effect that the Standard oil company threatened to disclose the amount 1t contributed to the campaign fund unless its allies, the rail- reads secured the broad court review the@ were urging under the leadership of s ator Aldrich

British Ambassador Demands Complete
 Satisfaction.

Constantinople, May 13-rabah has been evacuated by the Turkish troops by order of the Sultan.
 The Porte's reply on Friday to the British note agreed to the evacuation of Tabah. and the appointment of a com misison for the delimination of the boun- dary. but it was couched in such terms as to make 1t not acceptable to Sir Nich- olas O'Connor. the British ambassador, and he has insisted on complete satisfac- ton being given before the expiration of the limit set by the British note.

BAPTIST CONVENTION.
Evangelical and Memorial Meetings
 Held Yesterday.

Chattanooga, May 13--A mass meeting of evangelism and a memorial meeting held at the Auditorium were the prin- cipa features of today's session of the Southern Baptist convention. Among the speakers at the former meeting were Dr. George W. Trewlitt of Texas, pr. F. A. Mcconnell of Kansas City, Dr. l.. c. Broughton of Atlanta, and J. B. Gambrell of Texas.

Today will be the tenth of the general and is therefore the last upon which new business can be introduced for consider alton. The remainder of the session will be devoted to clearing up the matters now on the calendar.
 Last night the most discussed subjects among the delegates were the number and probable, personnel of the new quota of bishops to be elected by the conference and the proposed plan to name a com mission looking to the revision and re- statement of the twenty-five articles of religion of the church.
 The latter proposition Is unfinished bus mess before the conference. and it is be- lleved that vote on the subject will be reached this morning inasmuch as some of the leaders have signified their will ingness to have the previous question called. This is one of the most important subjects that has ever come before a general conference, and sentiment last night among the delegates seemed to be to the effect that the opponents and ad
  apart as would seem to be indicated by the speeches made during the debates.
 Not Far Apart. ,sOne man expressedit 1t by saying that Bishop Wilson was willing to have com mission to make a digest of Wesley's ser mons in order to have the matter in them more convenient of access. and that Dean Tilet in his argument has simply used the word "restatement." He believes that they are not far apart, and that the two sides will have no trouble in getting together when a thorough understanding is reached.
 The election of bishops is. of course. a subject of continued discussion among the delegates. The episcopacy committee has recommended the election of three new bishops, and it is possible that the report will be reached on the calendar today. It is not regarded as likely that the actual election will be entered upon however, until tomorrow or Wednesday.
 Preach at Local Churches.
 Nearly all of the Protestant churches of the city and suburbs were again occu- pied by visiting cergymen yesterday morning and last night.
 Probably the largest crowd was that which gathered at the First M. E. church to hear Dinsdale T. Young. the fraternal delegate from Great Britain at the morn ing service. Standing room ceased to be available some time before the minister began his sermon. Among the bishops who preached were:
 Bishop c. B. Galloway, baccalaureate sermon to the graduating class of the High school at Wylam.
 Bishop E. F. Hoss at Fountain Heights church last night.
 Bishop H. c. Morrison at Wesley chapel Bishop J. s. Key at Twenty-frst ave- nue.
 Bishop w. A. Candler at Pratt City.
 Bishop F.. R. Hendrix at South High lands Presbyterian church.
 Among the other well-known ministers attending the conference who occupied pulpits were:
 Dr. w. F. McMurray at Fountain Heights. morning service.
 W. S. Mathews, fraternal delegate from the Northern M. F. church. at the First church, night service. Dr. w B. Murrah. Five Points.

PoRTE'S REPLY.
Promises Restoration of Status Quo on
 Sinia Peninsula.

London, May 13.-Accordng to special dispatches from Constantinople, printed in this mornings newspapers, the porte's re- ply to the British note promises to re- store the status quo on the Sinia penin- sula and the delimitatlon of the frontier by Turkish and Egyptian officials now on the spot.
 Sir Nicholas OConnor, the British am bassador to Turkey. insists on the delimi- tation by an Anglo-Turkish commission. This is the demand the sultan is trying to evade, as it would acknowledge Great Britains protectorate over Egypt. and the severance of Egypt from the Ottoman em- pire, while the sultan wishes to maintain before the world that Egypt still is portion of the Turkish empire.

CREATED SENSATION.

Atlanta. Ga, May 13.-(SpeciaD.- The Rev. C. B. Wilmer, rector of St. Luke's Episcopal church. ere ated something of sensation dur ing his sermon this morning by an- nouncing that he had received a letter from the promoters of the Torrey-Alexander revival now in progress here, asking him to ad- wise the parents of his congrega- tion to send their children to special meeting for children. Dr. Wilmer declared that while he re- gretted 1t. he could not conscien- tiously advise parents to send their children, as he objected to the in-
 fluences to which children were
 subjected in revival meetings.

SAY She is INSANE
Experts Tell Jury That Josephine Ter
ranova Was Not Responsible for
Murder of Uncle and Aunt.

New York, May 23.--Today's ses-
sion of the trial of Josephine Terra
nova, charged with the killing of her
uncle and aunt, Gaetano and Concetta
Riggio, in their home at Williams
bridge on the night of February id,
was devoted entirely to the examina-
tion of expert witnesses for the de-
fense who alleged that the experiences
of the girl at the hands of her uncle
had weakened her mentally so that
she was not responsible for her acts.
They testified that the girl was of
unsound mind and not responsible for
the murder of her unnatural rela-
tiyes. Their testimony, however, was
technical and failed to interest the
morbid crowd that filed the court
room which plainly showed that 1t
expected some sensational revelations
The case will go to the jury Friday.

paying the $1,000 tax for the privi-
lege of doing business. Saloonkeep-
ers, 1t is known, are expecting some
concessions on the part Of the manu-
facturers, and it is intimated that un-
less this action was taken voluntarily
by the brewer4es the saloonkeepers
would join in a concerted movement to
enfoce their demands.
"The retailers, many Of whom are
barely able to make living, and few
of whom ever become wealthy, declare
that the profits of the brewers are dis
proportionately large and that beer
which costs only S1.75 to manufacture
is sold to them for 81. They are ex-
pecting that the price will be reduced
to as low as $5. G. C. Born declared
last night that he knew nothing OF
any such proposed action on the part
of the brewers of the city. He further
said that the impression that it costs
only $1.75 to manufacture a barrel OF
beer is erroneous, and that the cost is
more nearly So or $780,"

though the cast is composed of all in
experienced people some remarkable
work is being accomplished. Mrs.
Deubel, who has handled considerable
work along this line, stated that the
young ladies are taking an exception
al interest and that there is no doubt
but what the results will be of the
very best. Some very pretty dances,
drills and groupings will be given
which will be very effective.
Mr.. Brown deserves much credit for
undertaking what has never before
been attempted in this city. The task
is an exceedingly large one and he is
well worth much praise for the sue
cess that he has already attained in
SO directing this large cast, as it not
only requires thorough musician but
it demands a conductor who is well
versed ON many minor details that en-.
ter into the work.

Only a few days remain in which
saloonkeepers have an opportunity to
settle with the county auditor by pay
ing $500, the sum required by the
state for saloonkeeper to continue in
business during the six months COM
mencing June 1. The $1,000 Akin law
is already in effect, but it does not
become operative to saloonkeepers
now in business until the expiration Of
the time for which the Dow tax was
paid In December. By June l the
$1,000 law will be in effect under all
circumstances in Ohio.
AS yet the number of saloonkeepers
to remain in business In Canton af-
ter June 1 is in doubt. There are
many considerations in the case OF
each saloonkeeper and the brewers are
also interested to large extent. The
entire matter is a business proposition
and the brewers are taking as much
interest in the workings of the new
law as they did under the old Dow
tax law. 1t Is certain that there will
be less saloons in Canton after June
1 than there are at present.
The impression seems to prevail that
there will be many retail dealers who
will pay the assessment for the first
six months who later will drop out of
business. A fair estimate of the num-
ber of saloons that will be in Canton
at the end of one year places the num-
ber at 125. There are now about 200
saloons in the city and just be-
yond the corporation lines
The report that the brewers intend
to reduce the price of beer comes from
Columbus. A dispatch from that city
is as follows: Columbus breweries
are thought to be 0ntemplating re-
ducing the price OF leer to retailers
in the hope of aiding the latter in
