ANNUAL REPORTS OF
 TYPOS OFFICIALS

The annual reports of the interna- tional officers O. the Typographical Union have been mailed from head. quarters in Indianapolis to delegates to the international convention of the organization, which will be held in St. Joseph. Mo, August 9-14. The re ports were also mailed to the presi. dents and secretaries of the various local unions. This method is em- ployed instead of reading the reports at the convention of the organization.
 The report of the president, James M. Lynch, takes up in an interesting manner the more important happen ings of the year, and makes various recommendations for the future.
 Under the head of a brief sum- mary of ofice work Mir. Lynch shows that. during the last year, there were issued from the presidents depart ment 37,S96 ofhcial communications 24,437 circulars and 3,79s packages of printed matter relating to label ad vertising and organizing work. Con siderable space is devoted to the effi- cient work that has been done by the organization in it's health campaign, and the work it has accomplished in it's war against tuberculosis. Presi- dent Lynch says, as to unsaaitary workrooms: "Our unions will be jus tified in making particular scales for these exceptionally unhealthfuI com posing rooms, scales materially high CT than those that apply to the mod ern, healthful and up-to-date compos- ing room"
 The report of the secretarytreasur- CT. J. W. Hayes. goes into much de tail concerning the condition of the organization. both as to members and finances. It snov- that the to- tai expenditures turing the year end ing May 31s 1909. were S458,061. 7Z and that balance of s25s.72s.47 was left in the treasury. IL shows that the number of burial benefits pad during the year was 509. representing $38,175. This was a smaller number of burial benefits than for any pre- ceding year since 1903. and was twen- ty-nine less than in 1908. It shows that the average number of members in good standing during the year was 44,921, and the average membership for the last three months 47,174. In regard to the old age pension, the report shows total expenditures of $6s. .550.35. and a balance on hand in the fund. May 31, of s15s. .76717. The average earnings per year per member were $S97.

EVACUATION DAY
 F0R CRETE
International Troops to Leave Little Island Today After
 Three Years
MOSLEM AND CHRISTIAN
 WAGE BITTER STRIFE

LONDON July 26.-This week is to add another important chap ter to the turbulent history of Crete, the rugged little island in the eastern Mediterranean which, from the fact that it forms a natural link between Europe and Asia, has always been looked upon with more or less covetous eyes by the rival European powers. Tomorrow is the day fixed for the evacuation of the island by the international troops that for three years past have been maintain. ed there by Great Britain, France, Russia and Italy to preserve order.
 Though the various interested powers zHect to believe that no serious dis. turbances will follow the withdrawal of the troops. it is doubtful if any statesman in Europe views the situa' ton as other than one full of trouble and menace.
 The trouble in Crete arises from the fact that the island, though a Turkish possession, is inhabited chief ly by Christian Greeks, who have been long agitating for complete un' ion with Greece. When the with drawal of the international troops is accomplished the Turks fear that the Cretans, with Greek support. may at tempt to throw oil Turkish sovereign ty.
 To any such attempt the Young Turks, who are fearful of any fur ther loss of prestige and territory to the empire, will offer the strongest resistance, and advices recently re ceived from Salonica tell of warlike preparations being pushed on with feverish haste.
 Crete has been theatre of bloody
 strife since the days of Homer. Torn by civil dissensions. the island main tained its independence under the va
 rious Macedonian monarchs, but final
 ly became a Roman province. Subse quently it passed under Venetian rule
 It was not till 1645 that the Turks made a serious attempt to effect z
 conquest Then they landed with ar army of 5o.0OO men, reduced Canes
 and Retimo. and laid siege to Candid which capitulated after resistance of twenty years, the most protracteC siege on record. The fall of Candis meant the submission of the entire island
 From this time the island contin ued subject to Ottoman rule till the outbreak of the Greek revolution ir 1891. The struggle then was pro longed till in 1880 the allied powers France, Russia and. England-trans ferred the island to the government of Mehemet Ali, viceroy of Egypt.
Bisbee daily review., 1909-07-27

1840 Crete was again taken from Me- hemet Ali and replaced under the do minion of the Turks. The Cretans' desire for freedom resulted in four successive reyolts. one in 1859, which was speedily repressed; another in 1886, which continued for some time, and two more. in 1887 and 1888.
 Following the revolt of 1888 Shakir Pasha was sent to the island by the Turks as military governor. and he proclaimed martial law. In 1889 he violated the provisions of the Halepa pact, which had been indorsed by the powers. Legislative representation was ignored and all the customs re- ceipts of the island were appropriat- ed by Turkey. The island was ruled despoticaIly. Christians refused to go to the polls and general troubles ez. isted Finally the European powers interfered, and in 1894 a Christian was made governor. The legislative assembly was once more established, but trouble at once arose over the question of finances. The revolt as sumed formidable proportinos and the efforts of the powers failed to stop it.
 Finally, fin 1897, Greece made an effort to take the island away from Turkish control, and out of this grew the war between Greece and Turkey. Greece sent troops to Crete. but Fur. key wns victorious in the war, and as a result the Greek troops were with. drawn and Turkish garrisons took thefr place. They indulged in re. newed outrages on the Christians and the old troubles broke out afresh.
 As a result of these new troubles the four powers-Great Britain, France, Russia and Italy-again inter. vened, and constituted the island, with the adjacent islets, an autono. nous state under a high commission. CT of the powers, subject to the suzerainty of the porte. Prince George of Greece was appointed high commissioner and it was thought for a time that the troubles of the island were at an end. Prince George made a wise use of his dictatorship, and the powers were well pleased with their choice. He was appointed for a term of three years, and in 1901 the appointment was renewed. But again the old antagonism between Moslem and Christian kindled the in. ternal fires and the result was that the powers were forced to station troops on the island to put down the disorders.

 MONEY FROM COUNTY.

At the rate that the various trap pers and hunters of Cochise county are shipping in wild animal hides to Clerk of the Board of Supervisors H. E. Berner, the animals will shortly all be killed of or the county win go bankrupt in paying the bounty on the same, say the Prospector. Many hundreds of hides have been received by the clerk since the first of the year and another shipment was received this morning from two of the coun- tvs well known trappers as follows:
 George E. Estes of Paradise, lobo, I; lion, 1; wild cat, l: coyotes, Is.
 Thomas Patterson of Whitewater, coyoes 15 and skunks 5. This makes a total of thirty-eight wild animal hides received today, which. goes to show that considerable money is paid out for bounties during each month.

AAN ONCE IN BUSINESS
 IN DOUGLAS CAPTURED.

Within the next few days, Sheriff Henry Thompson of Globe. who is bringing J. c. Phillipson, formerly of Douglas, from Edmonton, CanaHa, to face a charge of embezzlement, should arrive here with his prisoner. Over a week has elapsed since the sheriff left Edmonton and as no de. lays are expected, his arrival any day is not unlocked for.
 From letters which have been re ceived from Phillipson, he is appar. ently preparing to fight the charges which are standing against him.
 He secured his release from the Ed monton jail on $S000 bail before Sher. iii Thompson arrived and when the latter reached Edmonton, the prison. CT was waiting at the station to greet his captor.
 As Phfil:pson was able to secure his release from the Edmonton jan ou ball. he win likely give bond on ar. irving at Globe.

AGAINST
RAILROADS

Washington, May 3.-The comnod-
tiles clause of the Hepburn rate law
was before the supreme court of the
United States today, which revised
the decision of Judge George Gray, of
Delaware, in the U. S. Circuit court
and upheld the constitutionality of
the act.
The original action was begun by
the government against a number of
eastern railroads under the commodi-
ties clause of the rate act which for
bids railways from carrying timber,
coal or any other commodity which it
controls other than for the use of it's
own. The roads resisted and Judge
Gray held against the government, de-
Gliding that the law was unconstitu-
tional and worked practical confisca-
tion of property. This, the supreme
court reversed. The decision holds
that the clause is in regulation of com
merce, which congress has a right to
enact.
The court holds that the railways
are not restrained from holding stock
in corporations, the commodities of
which they carry, if they do not con-
troll a commodity and sell it before
shipment, they may carry it, if they,
in good faith, have parted with it be
fore engaging it for shipment.

Chicago, May 3.-"Some power
which the world must heed must take
the initiative in proposing peace to
the world" said Robert Treat Payne,
of Boston, in the opening address at
the Peace Congress today. 1--WE meet
here in Chicago in hopes that Chica-
go will move the United States to
take this initiative for which the
whole world waits. Action of this char
acter has in it little of the noble au-
dacity, which, when the world was
weary of the bloody fight between
Japan and Russia, at last America
made bold to intervene. Remember
how cordially THIS intervention was
sustained. For a long time the world
has condemned the policy of war.
Rare outbreaks OF actual war occur
until all peoples are coming to con-
denim the folly of constant prepara-
tion. The cost of the annual prepara-
tion for war is bankrupting nations
and the whole world refuses to long

power must take the initiative in pro-
posing a scheme which must Danish
