There Is strong objee- ton to the prices to be charged for horses and 1t was decided by a num- Der of men from this section not to use horses but to ride mules In the parade to show their feeling for the high prices that were fixed for horses. Mir. Douglas was chosen to go day or two ahead of the big delegation which leaves here In the morning and he has a commission to get busy iIn- rnedIately o arriving in Memphis and hire all the mules he can for the parades. The Birmingham veterans expect to make quite an interesting scene as they ride by the big throngs on mules.

NEW YORK HERALD's SCOOP
Had the Only Authorized Version Of
DR.. Cooks Discovery.

(
New York, Sept. 3.-The New York
Herald made the greatest scoop of re-
cent years when it published DR..
Frederick A. Cooks personal narrative
of his journey to the North pole. The
Herald had the only authorized YER
sion of the discovery, which was sent
to it by Dr. Cook himself The AS
ISOLATED Press and many other papers
used the story sent exclusively to the
Herald, but full credit is due to the
Herald only for its enterprise in OBJ
tanning the greatest newspaper scoop
in many years.
The thrilling story of DR.. Cook, so
simply and yet so graphically told, re-
vealing as it does the hardships en-
dured in the successful quest to solve
the fascinating mystery that for CEN
turtles has lured men to their deaths
in the vastness of the frozen North,
cost the New York Herald probably
$4,000. This may seem big price
to pay for story, but the reward of
the Herald's enterprise in obtaining
this article from DR.. Cook was that it
put that paper half day ahead of
. every other paper in all the world.

UNREST IN BALKANS
Situation Considered Grave by
Close Observers.

Constantinople, Sept. 4-The for
e1gn embassies regard the Balkan sit
uation as of the gravest character.
Unrest among the Albanians is rap
idly increasing and the appointment
of the Turkish special commission is
expected to cause another outbreak
against the Ottoman government that
will lead to bloody results. The in
habitants of Scutari in Albania, have
already defied the commission and it
is believed that if troops are sent
there to enforce its orders there will
be an armed outbreak
It is believed here that the Greek
government is rapidly collapsing and
that King George is afraid to sum-
mon the chamber of deputies. The
mutiny in the Greek army is again
manifest and it is said that several
garrisons are on the verge of declar-
ing for war with the Turks.
AS a result of this army unrest in
Greece the Turkish government is in
creasing all its garrisons along the
frontier.
The populace, incensed by the MUIR
der Of the Mussulmans in Crete, is
crying for war against Greece.
