YOUNG TURK ADHERENT
Consul General Member of
Victorious Party

NEW YORK, Aug. 1I.-Mundji 'Bey,
khe Turkish consul general at this port
and an ardent adherent of the Turkish
constitutional party known as the
Young Turks, this afternoon received
cablegram from the imperial gov
ernment at Constantinople informing
him that he had been appointed charge
d affaires at Washington The consul
general at once made arrangements to
depart for the capital tonight, in com
pany with Sidky Bey, second secretary
OF the Washington legation, who is now
IN this city. The charge stated. how
ever, that he would probably return to
New York tomorrow, as for the present
he is TO continue his duties as consul
general here
"As a matter OF fact, this post is
more important from practical point
Of view. at least during the summer
months, than Washington" he said
The charge said 1t was believed that
Izzet Pasha, former secretary to the
sultan, and alleged to be a fugitive in
this country. is now hiding at the
Turkish legation in Washington. If
Mundji were to find the missing pasha,

spEc1A1 p1spArcH 70 THE cALL


WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 11.-Con-
sui General George E. Anderson of Rio
de Janeiro advises that in the estab-
fishing of a round the world passenger
and freight service by a French line
of steamships a large passenger and
freight steamer is to start from San
Francisco down the west coast OF
South America, through the straits OF
Magellan and up the east coast OF
South America to Pernambuco, stopping
at the principal ports.
He adds: This steamer service will
be afforded once each six weeks for the
present, naturally being increased in
frequency as business justities. The
service is important to the Pacific coast
interests of the United States in sew
eral respects The dried fruit trade
for example, ought to be given good
opportunity to get into this market by
convenience of making direct ship
ments in a modern steamer, something
heretofore impossible.
There may. also be something of an
opportunity for lumber interests OF
the Pacific coast, for its mills. winery
and other interests. The service in no
way is to be compared with that for
similar goods from Europe at the pres
ent time, but offers an opening which
should be watched.
Some dried fruit from the United
States is sold here, but there has been
much complaint of packing and condi-
tion, and the freight after transcon-
tinental trip and transshipment is a
material item in the trade. The new
service may avoid all such troubles
Practically no American wine is now
sold here and direct shipment facilities
may afford the opportunity.
AT present the steamship service
referred to is all one way and direct
shipments from Rio de Janeiro to San
Francisco are not to be had by it."

TURKISH MINISTER
GETS HIS RECALL
Mehmed Ali Bey Is Succeeded
Temporarily by Man Who
Attacked His Father
Changed Conditions in Turkey
Responsible for Removal
of Diplomat

" ASdlNGTON, Aug. 11.-Mehmed
Al Bey. the Turkish minister to the
united states, today admitted that he
had received advices from his govern
ment recalling him from his post here.
bis recall did not come as a great
surprise TO the minister. as, in view Of
the changed conditions in Turkey, it
was 10 be expected. Persistent rumors
nave been rife to the effect that the
minister would be recalled, but it was
not until last night that a positive
statement regarding the matter was re-
celNed and this came in a cable dis
patch TO the Associated Press from
London Mehmed Ali Bey is sorry to
leave the United States because, he
says, he likes this country, but as he
has pointed out heretofore, his recall
Is after all comparatively small mat

1t is Significant that the recall of
Mehmed Ali Bey and the appointment
OF Mundu Bey as charge d'affaires fol-
lows closely upon the heels of an at
tack made upon IzZet Pasha, father of
the retiring minister. by the latter.
Mehmed Ali today authorized the As

OF these charges, laying particular
stress upon the accusation that he was
involved in the Armenian massacres.
Izzet Pasha was not the instigator
OF the Armenian massacres," he said
through his interpreter, and it is
notable that at the time OF the mass
acres he occupied no political position,
being president Of the Commercial
Tribune. an organization which inclnd-
ed in its membership both Europeans
and Turks. When 1zzet Pasha resigned
that position after six years, in order
20 enter the council of the sultan, his
retirement was hailed with regret by
the members OF the tribunal If he
had been a CRATER as is charged, he
would not have been held IN such high
iesteem"

MERCHANT ENTHUSIASTIC
OVER REBUILDING OF CITY
Ben Wood of s. N. Wood & Co.
Returns After Long ABB
Seuce in Fast

San Francisco has weathered the
storm of financial depression better
than any other city in the country
and its volume of business through
panic times has been greater in COM
parison than that of New York or
any other eastern metropolis, accord
ing to Ben Wood of S. n. Wood & Co,
who has Just arrived in the city for
a visit of six weeks.
Ben Wood has charge of the eastern
affairs of the big local firm and gives
most of his attention to the manufac-
turing end of the business. The pres
ent visit is the first he has made to
San Francisco recently and he is en-
thusiastic over the manner in which
the city has rebuilt and the way in
which it met the financial panic.
Our big store in the Pacific building
is destined TO become one of the great
est houses Of its kind in the country, .
he said. 1T is a great concern now
but we intend TO install even more
improvements. and it will eventually
eclipse anything of the kind in the
west and will rank with any store
in the country"

Sue Last Chance
Mining Company
Contractors Ask ssCourt to
Enforce Payment of
Money Due Them

Thursday there was filed in the
district court an attachment suit,
wherein F. j. Mills, Ed. E.
Weston and Chas. Whaley
are plaintiffs and the Phoebe
Last Chance Mining Company
is defendant. The suit is
brought to recover the sum of
1924. 40, alleged to be due the
plaintiffs, for labor performed
forsthe defendantEc Corporation.
From what we can learn of
the particulars of the case, it
seems that Mills, Weston and
Whaley have performed consid-
cradle work for the Last Chance
Company, having upon a con-
tract, sunk a shaft some two or
three hundred feet. After the
completion of the work, owing
to the absence of Janey, the
general manager of the1 mine,
nothing definite could be ascer-
tanned by the plaintiff regard
ing the contract price, hence,
suit was brought to enforce such
payment.
1t is anticipated that a settle
ment will be made before actual
trial of the case is necessary.

Phoebe Team
Scores Victory
In An Interesting Game
Phoebe Carries off the
HOnOrs IL to 10.

In the baseball game played
Sunday last between Phoebe ant
Caliente, Phoebe came off victor
rious by a score of IL to 10.
This game was much more inter
esting from a spectators point
of view than the score would in
dictate. Both teams played good
ball, and some sensational indi-
vidual plays were features of the
game. Of the home team much
credit is due Ridd for the man.
ner in which he covered second
base, and also his batting. At
different periods he came to the
rescue of the home team by
driving out straight hits. In
the second inning with two men
out, he landed a three base hit
and brought in three men; and
again, in the last half of the
ninth inning he brought in the
run that saved the game for Pr
oche. Peek at first played a
consistent game, and stopped
every ball that came within range
of that base. Willis was good
in the field, and made a sensa-
tional throw from the field to
third, catching the runner.
Fitzpatrick in left field was also
good, and made a nice showing
at the bat. Fennel as catcher,
played a good game, making one
mistake in the beginning, throw
ing the ball entirely over the
second baseman's head. Bow
ling made good as pitcher, and
for the first five innings held the
opposing team well in hand.
Phoebe needs more pitchers; it is
too hard for most any amateur
to be required to pitch the full
nine innings. Bowling, however,
did this very well. In Mulhall,
Raymond and Harland, Phoebe
has good men, who were in the
game all the time.
Of the Caliente team Lloyd
Denton made the sensational
play of the entire game, catch
ing a difficult fly to first base
with one hand. Of the entire
Caliente team we will say that
they are a bunch of ball players
and thorough sportsmen, and
played a good game all the way
through.
Joe" Taylor acted as umpire,
and gave general satisfaction.
Joe" understands baseball, and
had his eye on every play. 1t is
impossible for anyone assuming
this position to please everyone,
every play, but Joe" can come
as near doing this as anyone we
have seen on the local diamond.
Quite an excursion was run.
from Caliente, which should
demonstrate to the Caliente team
that they have their home peo-
pie behind them. The support
given the local boys by the Pr
oche people was also good.
OF the entire game we will say
that it was creditable, and we
hope to see sufficient support
given the team in their respect
i've towns in order that many
games of the same order may be
played during the season.
Tomorrow the home team will
play with Caliente at that town,
Manager Henry Lee, together
with Agent Montgomery, have
arranged for a $3.50 fare for the

yards of ribbon, get the largest
