TO COVER BURGLARS TRACKS.
Latest Theory Regarding Cause Of
Lenox, Mass, Fire.

LenoX, Mass, April 13.-A theory that
Clifford block, where the fatal fire OF last
Sunday started. may have been set afire
to cover the traces of burglars who had
rifed the klipp jewelry store on the
ground floor, was advanced today and an
investigation along that line was begun
by State Officer Thomas <. Bleigh and
State Fire Marshal James Anderson. The
principal basis for theory lies in the fact
that a woman or man disguised as a
woman, carrying a heavy satchel and a
bundle. was met by the firemen from Lee
or their way to TINS town to assist in
fighting the flames
This individual was met at point
about two miles from Lenox about three
1uarters of an hour after the fire was
discovered and when asked by the Lee
lremen where the fire was replied that it
vas in the Eddy building. The Eddy
building was one of those destroyed, ad-
Joining the Clifford block.
The authorities are making every effort
to find some further trace of this mys-
FERROUS individual. The workers in the
ruins today bent their energies toward
1islodging the Klipp safe from the debris
in order to determine whether it was ri
lied before the fire.
A thigh bone was found today near the
spot where the engagement ring of Miss
Mary F. Sparks was discovered yesterday
and it is believed the remainder of her
body was entirely consumed. The bod

The authorities have endeavored to find
out exactly how much dynamite and
powder was stored in the cellar of the
James Clifford Sons Co.. which was in
the building in which six persons lost
their lives. The company originally stat
d that they had nearly rs pounds of dy-
Mantle on hand. but today revised this
statement, bringing the amount down to
10 pounds.
The fund subscribed by summer resi-
dents tonight had reached $4,000 and it was
expected that this sum would be nearly
doubled by tomorrow's subscriptions.

Comes Out Victor in Test
Of the Scout Cruisers.
Outcome Regarded As Signal
Victory for Turbines.
The Birmingham Disabled and
Forced to Abandon Race.

New York, April 13-The scout
cruiser squadron, consisting of the
Chester, Salem and Birmingham,
anchored tonight off Tompkinsville, S.
l., the two former ships having COM
pleted a 24-hour full speed test in
which the Chester came out the victor
The Birmingham was forced to drop
out of the race last night because OF
a arrangement Of machinery. The ac-
cident was a blow to the adherents of
the reciprocating style of engine, with
which this vessel was fitted, while the
fact that the Chester and Salem COM
pleted the race is looked upon as a
signal victory for the advocates of tur-
bines which drive these cruisers
No details of the of the Chester's
victory could be obtained here, her
commanding officer declaring that he
would report officially to the naval
authorities at Newport. The Salem, it
was stated, also had trouble with her
engines. but it was not Of a sufficiently
serious nature to compel her to aban-
don the race.
From an unofficial source it was
learned tonight that steam pipe
elpOdiu tilS iCduih6 Iloiii
the boilers to the forward engine, blew
out late yesterday and five cylinders
were damaged. 1t was also evident
that the trouble extended to the for
ward battery of boilers, for almost as
soon as the cruiser anchored her crew
started to work unshipping the for
ward smokestack, which was discolor-
er from burns.
Capt. Howard of the Birmingham
said that he could not talk in detail OF
the mishap in advance of his report.
He said the trouble, briefly. was that
the forward engine was badly damag-
ed He made port under one engine.
He said that he could have kept at
sea for an indefinite time had it bean
necessary and that the cruiser was at
all times serviceable. Until survey
was completed Capt. Howard said he
could not tell how long his ship would
be laid up.
The Chester, it was ascertained tonight
steamed 601.92 nautical miles in the "A
hours while the Salem covered 5S912.
1t was profitable race for the crew
of the Chester. The jackies made up q
purse of $1,000 which was covered by the
Salem crew. while the engine force of the
Chester won $1,000.

began to be heard Late at night
sharp firing was resumed III the STAN
bOul, Ga!ata and Pera quarters, but
this appeared to be only a series of sa-
luteS in honor of the Sultan, who had
proclaimed pardon for the mutineers
COnStantinCple, April 13.-SeriouS dis
turbances of revolutionary character
have broken out here The situation
is grave.
Turkey is at the beginning of her first
serious attempt at popular govern
ment. A constitution was granted the
country July "a, 1908. by the Sultan
and under the terms of this instrument,
elections for a Parliament were held
In due course The new Legislature was
inaugurated Dec. II, since when the
empire has been under constitutional
administration.
The hand of the Sultan was forced
and he was obliged to give the country
a constitution by the Young Turks,
who had been particularly active I'M
der the leadership of the committee of
union and progress since 1905. The CO.
operation of the army was obtained
by means of a successful secret propa
ganda and had not the Sultan given
way when he did two army corps
would have marched on Constantine
pc.
The granting of the constitution was
followed by the dismissal or fight Of
various members of the hated palace
clique and the installation Of officials
dictated by the successful insurgents,
who still continued to operate through
the committee OF union and progress
Since the nrst days of it's success the
course of the committee had been die
tatorial and absolute, and the political
activities of the Young Turks, rartic-
ularly in the direction of administra-
ton control have aroused q counter
political sentiment which has brought
out and crystallized the opposition of
the Liberals.

Constantinople, April 13-The troops
of the garrison made violent demon
stratlon today before the Parliament
building against the Committee OF
Union and Progress and the govern
mcnt. They demanded the dismissal of
the grand viZier, Hilmi Pasha, the min
lister of war and the President of the
Chamber. The outbreak was caused by
an order issued to the troops to the eff
feet that they must obey their officers
under all circumstances, even if called
upon to shoot down their co-religion-
lists.
The mutiners in the first move seized
all the officers Of the Committee OF
Union and Progress and held them
prisoners only few of the troops re-
