that woman who guarded her drove

The girl was kicked and beaten un-
til her body bore many bruises.
She lived in terror Of the threat
that an attempt to flee would be pun

Mother Collapses.
Mrs. Henry Thorn, the girls moth
er, was so shocked by the first few
minutes of the recital that she could
not bear to listen further and was
assisted from the court room. The
girls father listened in silence. Once
he whispered that he would give his
life to kill the men who had kidnap-

Anna Carlo, the persons arrested in

DEMOCRATS MAY
LOSE IN SOUTH
Resentment Against Bryan's
Domination Becomes Bitter
=, Among Party Leaders

Washington, Oct 6.-Nowhere in
the country are political Conditions
more interesting. more involved than
section of the United States lying
sectto nof the United States lying
south of Mason and Dixon's line,
which Is generally counted safely
democratic, is badly torn up this year.
There is not the slightest doubt that
there is a strong inclination on the
part of many conservative southern
ers to break away from what is
known as the Democratic party. There
is chance for Taft In one or two
southern states besides Maryland,
while the south's Republican member
ship in the house is expected to be
increased materially.
There is that in the makeup of the
great Ohioan that makes southern
people like him. His earnestness of
purpose, his high sense of honor, his
well-established reputation for fair
dealing and his unsullied record as a
public official are we'll known to
southern men. Many of them have
come in personal contact with him
during the past five or six years and
he enjoys great popularity throughout
the south.
With the exception of Texas and
Arkansas, there was hardly a south
ern state whose leaders wanted Bry-
an to be nominated in the Denver con-
vention. They fought hard against it
and, could the supporters of Judge
Gray of Delaware, and Governor John
son OF Minnesota. have been brought
together, the Nebraskan never would
have received the nomination. At a
conference held In Washington in
March. which was attended by the
leaders of the Gray and johnson sup
porters, and number of southern
senators and representatives, it was
conclusively shown that Bryan could
be defeated at Denver If the two
forces would combine against him.
But neither would give way to the
other and SO the matter was dropped.
The southern men gave up in disgust
and many of them, elected as dele
gates to the Denver convention, stay
ed away and sent alternates.
Leaders Lukewarm.
This was particularly true of Lou
isiana, only few of whose leaders
appeared at Denver. In Alabama half
the leaders were already committed
to johnson, but ill-advised managers
of the Minnesotans campaign, whose
zeal outran their discretion, gave pub
licly to the fact too soon, and the
.Bryanites were able to head of the de-
lection before the state convention
was held. Still, most Of the Alabam-
ians are but lukewarm in their sup

EUROPE AG|TATEO over THE ACTION 0F
BULGARIA IN DECLARING INDEPENDENCE
Turkey Demands that the Powers Protect their Rights and Garry
Out the Provisions Of the Treaty Of Berin..Not Much
Danger Of War Change is One of Paper Only.

Constantinople, Oct 6.-The council
OF ministers held long session this
morning to consider the action Of
Bulgaria in declaring her independ-
ence of Turkey at Tirnovo yesterday.
It was decided that 1t was impossible
to accept any proceedings that violat-
ed the existing treaty and that Tur-
key should address a circular note to
the powers pointing out the necessity
OF taking measures to enforce re-
spect for the treaty Of Berlin. Reply
Ing to telegram sent to the Turkish
government by Prince Ferdinand in
which he said that in declaring the in
dependence of Bulgaria he had been
compelled to respect the voice of the
nation and expressed the hope that
friendly relations between the two
countries would continue, Turkey
says she has invited the powers to
confer on the situation and as her
rights are guaranteed by the powers
she will look to them for their de-
fense.
The Yenai Gazette, the organ Of the
grand vizier, says today: F"We are
ready to defend our rights with all
our strength. AS the action of Bull
garia is not only directed against us,
but against all the powers, we should
ask the powers to defend their inter-
ests and protect the provisions of the
treaty Of Berlin"
According to this same journal,
Austria-Hungary has informed the
powers of her intention Of withdraw
ing her troops from sanjak and No
vipazar.

A Statement From the Wife an Ex.
pose of Thaw's Schemes.
New York, Oct. 6.-Evelyn Nesbit
this signed statement today:
Contrary to the general opinion,
no sum of money has ever been set
tied on me, either by Mr.. Thaw or his
family, before or after the two trials.
Mrs. William Thaw wrote, signed and
put her seal to an agreement to this
effect:
THAT If l, through my counsel.
brought about annulment proceedings
lump sum would be given me and
an income per year for life.'"
"In this agreement Mrs. William
Thaw pledged her word that this
money would be paid upon the sign
ing of the annulment papers. No
sooner were the papers signed than
Mrs. Thaw conveniently forgot all
! about her word. Naturally my coun-
sci Immediately withdrew the suit.
! CAS- for the bankruptcy proceedings,
they are merely pretext to get Thaw
! out of New York state, and once he
manages to get into Pennsylvania,
other proceedings will be brought to
keep him there.
"On one Of my visits to Pough-
keepsie Mr.. Thaw informed me that
the influence of his counsel, Charles
Morschauser, was far reaching in
Westchester county and that If they
could manage to have the trial held in
that county the result would be fav-
orable. Thaw's present mental con-
dition is what 1t always has been and
always will be-.
For the last two months Thaw has
not supported me and pretends that
he has no money. Yet, at the same
time, he is able to engage numerous
lawyers, alienists and detectives. His
coke trust income alone is 100000 a
year and he had numerous other in
terests.
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw."
Evelyn Thaw explained that her on
ly desire in giving out the statement
was to "set the public right" concern
ing her none yaffairs. She said that
she had found 1t impossible to live on
nothing. Daniel O'Reilly said that he
did not believe that Evelyn Thaw
would be called in the hearing to in
quire into Thaw's mental condition.

Germany's Attitude.

UeFMdny>S ACtlCu0es
Berlin, Oct. 6.-The question wheth-
er there is to be peace or war in the
Balkans has not yet been decided in
Constantinople, according to official
dispatches received at the foreign Of
flee today. Ambassadors of the pow
ers at Constantinople find the situa-
ton difficult one because the control
of affairs does not rest altogether
with the cabinet of young Turks, but
partially with the powerful committee
of young Turks outside the cabinet.
The cabinet and the committee appear
to be diveded in their views. Official
opinion in Berlin leads to the belief
that there will be no war, inasmuch
as change in relations between Bull
garia and Turkey is merely paper
change. No material interests will be
involved, provided Bulgaria gives up
her control of the Oriental railroad
in Eastern Rumelia, as now seems
probable. Germany continues her at
titude of reserve. She would not op-
pose a conference OF the powers for
revision of the treaty of Berlin, II
such conference were desired by the
other powers.

Muskogee, Ok, Oct. 6.-After admit
ting that he killed a man and after
being In Jail two years without wit
ness against him, George Rolich, a
Montenegrin, is free man. But his
two years In Jail has worked a won
derful change In him. He went this
morning TO- 1.-The sheriff of Muskogee
county and asked to be allowed to re-
main In the Jail as a permanent home.
He promised to pay forty cents day,
which is the legal rate for keeping
prisoners. He says that the jail is
more like home to him than any other
place. He has $215 in money and
some other resources besides.

ferred to enjoy his freedom a few
weeks before he went to work again.
He is registered at the Jail as a spe-
ctal guest of Sheriff Ramsey. He will

fore came before the officials and
they were surprised into granting the
request when It was made.
Rolich killed a man named Bero-
witch, also an alien, and admits 1t. He
says that he killed him in helf defense
and that in Montenegro he would not
be punished for such an offense. He
was arrested and sent to Jail, and
there he remained two years while
the officers sought to find some one
who would appear against him as a
witness. Failing in this, Judge Car
ruthers ordered the man released
from custody. because he could not
go on the witness stand and testify
against himself.

ogee, can speak the Montenegrin
language, and he acted as Interpreter
for Rolich both In court and when he
made application to become regular
