tells Of what occurred one night-the
night, in fact, prior to the execution
of Captain Wirz--which took place
November 10, 1865. He was resting
In his cell and had been asleep some

sound of talking in the corridor. He
heard the voices OF several men and
heard them enter Wirx's cell adjoin-

Mr.. Taft was obliged to deliver two

A new VIEW

THE POWERS TO CONSIDER
CRISIS IN NEAR EAST-SUDDEN
DECISION CAUSE OF SURPRISE

LONDON, Oct. l3.-M ISwolSky.
the Russian foreign minister. has sue
ceeded in impressing upon Sir Ed
ward Grey the British. secretary of
foreign affairs. the necessity that not
only should conference or the pow
ers, be held to settle the crisis in the
near east, but that this conference
should take under advisement other
questions besides those involved in
the annexation of Austria of Bosnia
and Herzegovina and the declaration
Of Bulgarian independence.
This. change of front on the part
of Great Britain which has caused
great surprise. was announced by the
foreign Office at the conclusion of a
long conference between Sir Edward
Grey and M. Iswolsky. after a meet
ing of the cabinet in the morning.
at which Sir Edward set forth the po-
sition he had taken and explained the
views of the Russian minister. Sir
Edwards secretary in making the an
nouncement said:
1T may be affirmed with certainty
that both minister's concur in the ne
cessityl for a conference. and that the
pourparlours, at the foreign Office,
following as they do upon the Franco
Russian negotiations on the subject.
have smoothed away, some of the dif-
fcult.es which were in the way. It Is
now regarded as probable that the lat
eat events in.the near east also neces-
state the enlarging- of the scope OF
the. questions Ito be discussed nj the
