TAYLOR ALREADY AFTER
NEXT YEARS BUNTING

Boston, Oct. 8.-The baseball season
closed in Boston yesterday. Pres. John
I. Taylor saw the double-header at the
Huntington avenue grounds and after
the game said:
Our club was patronized in splendid
shape on the home grounds. while on
the road the team was general fav-
orite.
Il appreciate the support of the Bos-
ton lovers of the game.
Il think l have good reason to hope
that the Red Sox will cut an important
figure in the race next season, as our
boys are young and are bound to i'm
prove. In any event 1 will do my level
best to bring about such a result"
When asked if Fred Lake would be
retained as manager of the club for
next season, Pres Taylor smiled and
said: Mr. Lake has given entire sat
isfaction. Since he took the team it
has won % games and lost 10. which
certainly Is fine showing. With a
good start feel confident that Mr..
Lake will make one of the most sue
cessful managers in the business"
1t can be put down as a fact that the
native son manager will be given an
opportunity to train and pick out his
men for the hard work next season
Lake knows baseball. is a tireless
worker and is absolutely loyal to any
cause that he follows.

cident died before he could be convey
ed to Skinner village, but as there is
no telephone line between this place

TO SATISFY SELFISH INTERESTS.
Servian Government Says Annexation
Is One.sided Transaction.

Belgrade. Servia, Oct. S.-The Servian
government in its proclamation protesting
against the annexation by Aust!ia-Hun-
gary of Bosnia and Herzegovina ex-
presses the hope that the powers will re-
spond to the appeal addressed to them
for protection and justice. This new
and fragrant violation of the Berlin trea-
ty," the proclamation declares. has been
effected unlaterally by force mature to
satisfy selfish interests and without re-
gard to the grievous blow thus dealt to
the feelings, interests and rights of the
Servian people
"Seryia cannot in this present case OBJ
tain full satisfaction, other than by the
complete restoration of the situation with
regard to Bosnia and Herzegovina as es-
tablished by the treaty OF Berlin. If this
solution is regarded as absolutely i'm
possible the Ssrvian government. appeal
ing to the sense of equity Of the powers
demands corresponding compensation for
Scrvie. The guarantees indispensable to
her existence as an independent state
must be maintained, and the general con-
dition fexistence assured Servia by the
treaty Of Berlin must, AT least in a meas
ure, be restored"
The proclamation declares that the
rights accorded Servia under this treaty
are incomparably inferior to the sacri-
fees imposed upon her. Servia has
scrupulously observed the terms of the
treaty. No notifications to the advan-
tage of Servia have been made, whereas
there have been a number of moditica-
tons to the advantage of other powers.

TURKEYS DILEMMA.

Constantinople. Oct 8.-Second
thoughts have raised doubts in Con-
stantinople as to the advisability of
the proposed conference of the Power;
to discuss the occurrences of the pres
ent eventful week, and Great Brita in s
hint to the Ottoman government that
such a meeting might possibly only
add to the complications and result
further detriment to Turkey may in
duce the Porte to abandon it's demand
therefor. Many of the intelligent
Turks already openly express the opin-
ion that it would be safe to avoid such
a meeting. accept the accomplished
facts, and demand compensation from
the Powers in the shape of the execu-
ton of the articles of the Berlin treaty
favorable to Turkey, as well as none
tary compensation for the loss of the
Oriental Railroad in eastern Rumania
and the capitalization of the Rumanian
tribute.
The Porte will protest strongly to
the Powers regarding the Cretan dec
laration for union with Greece. but it
is expected to take the view that as
this island is under the protection Of
the Powers it is their duty to see that
the rights of Turkey are upheld
Greece has not yet given any sign
as to whether it intends to confirm the

NO MONEY FOR NAVAL AIRsHlp.
Secretary Metcalf Says It Will Likely
Not Be Attempted for Another Year.

Washington, Oct. SAN announce
noent that the navy department had au-
thorized bids for supplying aeropianes
for use OF the navy at sea was said by
Secretary Metcalf to be premature. The
bureau of equipment has been work
ing on specifications that would meet
the requirements Of the feet and plans
have been perfected that the bureau
thinks can be perfectly worked out. The
designer is Lieut.. Commander Sweet.
Nothing can be done, however, 10 en-
courage the building of the aeroplane
for the department without the au-
tlorization of Congress. The depart
ment has no money for the purpose,
and no funds may be diverted from the
specific purposes for which they We're
appropriated by Congress.
There is an indisposition in the navy
department to ask Congress for any
thing this winter beyond the MAIN
tenance of the service, and the naval
airship that is to rise from the water
or float on it or shoot up from the
deck of battleship and fly 200 miles
if necessary will likely not be attempt
ed for another year at least.

THE BULGARIAN KINGDOM.
Austria Arranging for Its Recognition
BY the Powers.

Budapest, Oct. S.-Austra already
has entered upon negotiations with the
various Powers for the recognition Of
the new kingdom of Bulgaria and the
establishment of peaceful relations be-
tween Turkey and Bulgaria. Baron
Won Aehrenthal, the foreign minister
made this announcement in his speech
at the opening sitting of the Common
Delegates today. The Austrian news
papers and politicians have steadfast-
ly denied that there was any under
standing between Austria and Bulgaria
in the recent double movement, but
Austria's adoption of a protecting role
toward Bulgaria indicates a strong
community Of interests.
In his address the Austro- Hungarian
minister said that Austria adopted a
generally sympathetic attitude toward
the new regime in Turkey.
This attitude he said, rs based
upon the definite hope that the new
era in Turkey will produce the re-
juvenation and inauguration of that
state. Austria Hungary, whose from
tiers march with Turkey and whose in
terests consequently are most affect
ed. desires this from selfish reasons
A Turkey with better government
and more stable conditions would be
a more comfortable neighbor than the
Turkey of yesterday. The leading ele-
ments in the new political era are
showing praiseworthy moderation and
prudence. This will profit the re-
juvenated kingdom all the more, since
even the new Turkey has to rely on
the benevOlence and friendly support
Of the Powers Such support she may
depend upon receiving from us with
more certainty the more she manifests
the friendly attitude toward us"

NEGOTIATIONS DELAYED
And Prospect Is Rather Poor for Early
Settlement Of Trouble.

London. Oct. S.-More pessimistic
feelings prevail here today with re-
gard to the possible early settlement
of the Near Eastern question. The
demands of the Cretans for annexation
to Greece and the protest of the Ser
Wan government against the annexa-
ten of Bosnia and Herzegovina have
introduced further difficulties. These
it is believed. will assuredly be finally
overcome by the British government
but they are delaying the negotiations
NJ Romanos. the Greek minister to
Great Britain, was officially informed
today that the people of Crete had re-
quested union with Greece. He said
his government would accept the
proclamation. 1t could not be sup
posed. he said, if the powers recogniz-
ed the independence OF Bulgaria, that
they would deny their support to the
aspirations of the people Of Crete.
