HEMPHiLL OPENS DEFENSE.
Accused Doctor Seeks to Justify Treat.
ment Of Miss Gleason.

Troy, Mo.-Attorneys for the
defense Thursday made opening
statements in the case against DR.. w.
A. Hemphill, who, with Rev. Clyde
Cow, is charged with causing the
death of Miss Elizabeth Gleason. The
state closed its case Wednesday aft
ernOon.
DR.. r. Mcconnell, bacteriologist for
the state board of health; DR.. Walter
B. Dorset, St. Louis; Dr.. Hugo Sum-
ma, DR.. l., Pendleton and DR.. w. P.
Smith of Troy, Mo-, all testified to the
girls condition following microscopic
examination. 1t was brought out that
Miss Gleason died of peritonitis.

Tense it was declared that the treat
ment given Miss Gleason by DR..
Hemphill was but a simple operation
for diseases other than that charged,
and that death was caused by portion
tits not due to the treatment given.
Rev. Clyde Cow, who is to be tried at
the close of the present case, was in
the courtroom and listened to the evil

SULTAN IS WARNED
KAISER SENDS NOTE DISCOURAGE
ING GERMAN ALLIANCE.
WOULD INVOLVE NATION IN REVOLT
Proposed Marriage of Turks Son to
Christian Woman Is Not
Countenanced.

Constantinople-With failing health,
internal disorders in his own
state, and political complications
abroad worrying him to distraction,
Sultan Abdul Hamid had his troubles
increased Friday by a warning from
his advisors that the contemplated
marriage of his son t O a Christian
princess will involve the nation in a
revolt.
The Sultan has heretofore refused
TO interfere in the matrimonial affairs
OF his son, whose heart has been cap
tured by a beautiful girl of opposite
religious faith. Now he learns that
the country will eve submit to such
a union, and he frankly confesses that
he does not know what to do.
The Sultan's latest political worry
is a note from Germany, discouraging
Turkeys o%vertures for an alliance
with Germany. The latter country
wants the friendship of Turkey, but
Emperor William is afraid of the eff
feet of an open alliance with 1.-THE
Bloody Turk" Abdul Hamid wants
some power to back him up in his OPP
position to Russia's increasing inter
ference in his affairs. Germany seems
the most available, and the note of re-
fusal has caused the keenest disap-
pointment.

the Monon railroad from issuing
passes in return for advertising.
