company Of Turkish troops attached to

promptly put down this morning with a

for a few moments to result in serious
trouble, but hurry order was issued and
battalion from a regiment recently
brought in from Salonika was marched
to the scene and one volley sufficed to
cove the mutineers.
The rebellious troops were under
orders to leave for the provinces, but
they refused to depart, withdrew to q
field near the barracks and defied their
officers.
The battalion from Salopika, which
ives drafted into the capital especially
because the men who are staunch sup
porters Of the constitution was ordered

mutineers surrendered and were made
prisoners. Later they were drawn up
on the public square, tied together and
exhibited to the assembled troops as
rebels who had broken their military
oath.

When the applause occasioned by the
presentation to the audience of the
Democratic donkey and "Hot Times
played by the fife and drum corps from
the Soldiers home had subsided in the
Simpson auditorium last night, Stanley
B. Wilson, editor Of the Citizen, was in
troduced to the audience. Mr.. Wilson
spoke for an hour, receiving great ap-
plause. In part, he said:
up to the present time never have
voted anything but the Republican
ticket, but l am going to vote this
time for Bryan, because / know that
this DEMOCRATIC campaign is charac-
terized more by principle than policy.
A man came to me once and said, Mr..
Wilson, my daughter Is going to marry
a Democrat Think OF 1t. l told him
then that good Democrat was at least
as good as a bad Republican and be-
lieve now that he's vast deal su
perior.
'I have placed myself in line with
that great commoner, that man whose
hope and genius shall lead the nation
from trustism and corporationism into
fair government by and for the people,

way II was at San Diego, / couldn't

REALTY BOARD AGAINST
AMENDMENT NUMBER &c

At a meeting of the governing COM
mittee of the Lost Angeles realty board
held Saturday the following was passed:
Resolved, That whereas senate con-
stitutional amendment No. 26. repeating
the present constitutional provision that
a mortgage shall, for the purpose of
taxation, be treated as an interest In
the property affected thereby is to be
voted on November 8, 1908, this board
deems It to the best interest of the
lender and borrower, taxpayer and gen.
eral public, that said amendment be
defeated, for the reasons that it's adop-
tion would probably increase mortgage
interest rates, and that it wolAd work
a hardship on all borrowers on real
estate security; for if the mortgage is
assessed to the lender as a solvent
credit he would necessarily have to in
crease the interest rate to cover the
taxes. while the borrower would get no
corresponding deduction from his prop
erty tax"

Prince Won Buelow, the imperial chan.
cellor, today offered his resignation tC
Emperor William in consequence oi
the publication in London of the in.
terview with his majesty, for which
the prince took the responsibility.
The emperor would not accept the
chancellor's resignation, and at the
same time permitted Prince Won Buelow
to publish full explanation so ar to

have been made upon his mejesty.
It was announced conclusively at the
foreign office tonight that the chan
cellor would remain in office.
Prince Won Buelow's explanation In
the Nord Deutsch Aligmeine Zeitung
is as follows:
Won BueloW's Letter
"a great portion of the foreign and
international press publishes criticisms
directed against his majesty relative
to the articles in the London Daily

Of conversations between the emperor
and several English personalities held

The reason given for the request was

foreign office did not report anything

"When the chancellor as a result of
the publication in the Daily Telegraph
became aware Of the contents of this
he explained to the en-
peror that he personally had not read
1t and that had he done so he would
have hesitated and advised against
publication.
"He holds himself alone responsible
and he desires to protect the officials
under him. At the same time he Of
fered to resign, but the emperor would
not accept his resignation. On the

way. The $4,000 check deposited at
the time the bid was made Mr.. Drake
believed to be small In comparison
with the amount of the bond issue,
the practice of the supervisors being
to demand two per cent in large Is
sues, which naturally would require
the deposit of a check for $4,000. He
denied that the deposit of this check
could operate to the benefit of the Los
Angeles Trust company and the state
ment that 1t was to be furnished by
the First National bank, he said, was
not true.
The arrangement with the Jeffries
company to print the bondss he said,
was not made until after the sale was
agreed upon, and the fact that the JEFF
fries company was supposed to have
political influence had nothing to do
with the transaction.
The examination was taken up again
by Judge Works. In response to ques-
tlons, Mr.. Drake said he knew nothing
of any negotiations between Martin,
Jeffries and the "solid three"
Mr.. Drake said the same persons
were stockholders In the First National
bank and the Los Angeles Trust COM
pany, but that the two concerns tran
saeted business in the same manner
as II they were not connected In any
way.
Not Favored by Bank
Suppose you want a certified check
from the First National, can you get
1t without having a deposit there?"

The bank requires the same of US as
of any other financial institution"
Notwithstanding the fact that
lower bid was proposed at the secret
meeting than that offered by J. r.
H. H. ns-nl In
said he could not remember that any
suggestion had been made by Patter-
son, Wilson or Eldridge to adjourn.
Speaking of the reasons for the with
drawal of the bid for the bonds, Mr..
Drake said the Los Angeles Trust COM
pany was not desirous of being con-
nected with any transaction that was
the subject of criticism, and that 1t
took steps to withdraw as soon as a.
committee from the advisory board
waited on him.
In this connection Mr.. Drake said
he received a call from Cyrus e.
Peirce, representing N. w. Halsey &
Co., following the public clanor against
the private sale. Peirce, he said,
wanted to take over the interests of
the eastern correspondents in the tran
saction. Mr.. Peirce told me he was
very close to S. A. Butler, chairman
Of the advisory committee, and If a
combine could be arranged whereby
his company could receive part of the
bonds, public feeling would die down."
Mr.. Peirce is connected with the San |
Francisco branch of the Halsey firm.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. S1.-Francis

faulty in that it did not state that
Sohmitz was mayor Of the city, fact
which the supreme court could not go
outside of the indictment to take Ju-

Rivals in The final Sprint

BY the virtue OF their defeat OF
the st. Louis Browns yesterday,
the Chicago Whitesox step up into
second position, and must be re-
garded as the most dangerous riV-
ais Of the Tigers for today at
least.
The Sox are welcomed by the
TIGERS. for there is no team in
the league which Jennings men
fear less. Had II been the Maps
who had stepped into that second
place there would indeed be ap-
prehenson in Ti9ertown.
The Tigers themselves feel
greatly relieved over the first VIC
tory they have won in seven
Games and believe that IL pre-
saqes a run of better luck.
Wild Bill Donovan is the man
who gets the lions share Of the
credit and il is not the first time
that his timely pitching has en-
abIed the Tigers to pull up and
sand the slide. The Tigers al
ways play their best ball with Bill
on the slab and the opposing
pitcher usually gets we'll bumped.
