TRIPOLI ATTACK ON
Rome Officials Declare Powers
in Alliance Have Agreed to
Occupation.

Rome (via Frontier) Oct 4.-Of-
fcial circles ridicule reports of dis
sensions among the powers regarding
their attitude toward Italy. AS a
matter of fact, it is said, what is now
transpiring was arranged among the
states in triple alliance with the ad-
hesion of France and Great Britain,
who are bound by an agreement of
1901 to support Italy, or at least be
neutral whenever it decides to oc-
cupy Tripon.
IN NORTH AFRICA ALSO.
1t is even limited negotiations with
Austria and Germany which preced-
ed the present action of Italy led to
the basis for a renewal of the triple
alliance, which will expire 1914,
when to already existing clauses an
other will be added regarding the
protection of Italy in its position in
North Africa.
WILL PROTECT PRISONERS.
Military attaches at the embassies
here are following with interest
preparation for an Italian expedition
to TripoH. Italy purposes TO land
nearly forty thousand men within
week and begin operations immed-
lately. Turkish prisoners in Italy,
who already number more than five
hundred, will be assembled in the
large barracks near Caserta. All Will
be well treated.
NoN-CoMBATANTS SPARED.
Rear ADMIRAL Aubrey, in com
mand of the Italian fleet at TripoH,
reports that in bombarding the city
he spared all consulates, hospitals,
churches, monasteries and converts,
aiming only at fortifications. The
bombardment was protTacted because
of this extreme care to avoid useless
bloodshed and respect the homes of
non-combatannts and mosques. From
the battleship the officers could
plainly see the effect of their shots and
realized in a few hours all forts
might be dismantled and batteries
silenced.
FORTS IN RUINS.
London. Oct. "A news despatch
from Rome giving an account of the
bombardment of Tripon, says: THE
ing. 1t was heavier than yesterday.
The outer forts are reduced to ruins.
Soon after the first white flags began
TO appear The Italians are preparing
TO land 1000 men from the ships. The
fleet is unharmed."
REPORT PREVESA ATTACKED.
Berlin, Oct. 4.-The Lokal AnZieg-
er publishes a report the Italians
have bombarded Prevesa.
TURK BATTERIES INEFFECTIVE.
Rome. Oct An official message
from Vice Admiral Faravelli stated
the bombardment of the main batter
les at Tripoli commenced at 3 yes
terday afternoon and continued un-
til sunset The batteries replied 10
the Italian fire without effect. The
admiral intimates the bombardment
will be resumed today "Wednesday .
in order to completely destroy the
batteries. Care was taken by the
Italian gunners to avoid damaging
buildings in the town. Only light
house and one of the batteries was
destroyed.

PERKINS PLEADS
FOR CLUB HALT
Financier Points to Injury to
Business by Indiscrimin-
ate Attacks.
ASKS FOR SANE INQUIRY
Big Institutions Must Have Some As
SuranCe of Cease in Constant
Annoyance.

Detroit, Oct. 4.-George w. Perkins,
of New York, today addressed the De-
troit Board of Commerce on the topic,
1T is the function of law to define and
punish wrong-doing and not to throttle
business In part Mr. Perkins said:
Two of our large industrial compan-
les have gone before the supreme
court in suits under the Sherman act.
In rendering it's decision in these two
cases the supreme court pronounced
for a rule of reason. 1t has given
both companies six months to reorgan-
ize their affairs
UP IN THE AIR.
Meanwhile it is impossible for any
large interstate industrial company to
know definitely whether it's form of or
ganization is legal or illegal. And
there seems to be feeling on the part
of executives of the government that
they are in honor bound to go on and
apply the law, as they understand it,
to other large industrial companies.
ASKS FOR A HALT.
'In view of the opinions handed
down the supreme court and in view of
the fact that there already has been
introduced in the new democratic con-
gress a resolution to take this ques-
ton up and investigate it; in view of
the fact that the republican senate has
instructed the commerce committee to
sit this fall and take up the question
and investigate it: would it not seem
prudent and just to call halt in in
discriminate attacks on great inter
national agencies of industrial trade
until some one in authority can make
clear how we can legally carry on our
large successful international indus
trial business2"
REQUESTS A COMMISSION.
In conclusion Mr. Perkins spoke of
commissions already appointed to in
vestigate railroad, to prevent stock
watering postal rates and the tariff,
and asked that a commission "be ap-
pointed in the same way for the same
purpose in connection with the great
industrial agencies of trade"
