Turkey Defies italy And. Won't
 Give Up TripoII

The situation growing out of Italy's demands that Turkey surrender Fri poli to her was increasingly grave to- day. Turkey, speaking through her diplomatic representatives in the sew eral capitals, has defied Italy. She has declared she will surrender none of her territory without a fight and expressed the belief that, even though she is without a navy, she can defeat any force Italy may try to hurl into Tripoli or other Turkish territory.
 Official advices here say that Italy has, in course of preparation, an ulti- matum for Turkey. It will demand the cession of Tripoli within the briefts possible period and will state that, if this action is not taken, force will be resorted to.
 The entire Italian fleet is mobilized in Palermo harbor, waiting orders. All of the vessels are fully coaled and provisioned, their magazines are filled and the crews have been greatly aug mented. One report says that two Italian battleships are already cruis- ing off Tripoli. If this is true, 1t is certain that they are under orders to intercept vessels carrying the Turk ish army corps mobilized yesterday for service in Tripoli.
 In the hope of preventing war that might be only the commencement of hostilities involving many other coun- tries, most of the nations have advised

FISHERMEN RESCUED.
Discovered in Nick of Time by Boat
 men Off BranfOrdoPoint


 Branford, Sept. 26-What came very near being a serious drowning acci- dent happened yesterday afternoon just off Pawson Park about o'clock. Charles H. Page ST., and T. Lind berg had been fishing off the rocks between Branford Point and Pawson Park, and started to pull anchor pre- paratory to going home. While the anchor was coming up, the rope broke and the sudden relaxation capsized the boat, throwing both occupants into the water which is quite deep at this point. As both men were very large and not good swimmers things looked very serious for them at first, but for tunately George Marsh, accompanied by Stacey Ward, were coming into the river just at this time, in MT Marshs motor boat. Mr. Marsh hastened to their aid and after considerable diff ficulty the two men were finally pull ed into MT. Marsh's boat and brought home safely. MT. Page is a man well along in years.

He said thai only two persons, besides himself, In sterilized gowns were permitted in the laboratory, that the doors and win dows were closed to prevent contam- ination from dust particles, and that the tables and hands were steriliZed with bichloride of mercury solution. Nevertheless, he testified, he succeed ed in segregating 22 different organ isms which existed in the serum These he injected into eight dogs, 10 rabbits and 30 guinea pigs.

 Death resulted" he said, "in three dogs, five rabbits and twenty guinea pigs.
 Twenty eight deaths, then?''
 ''Yes, out of forty y-eight animals" '"
 What proportion of the 22 germs were mortal?"
 ''Fourteen of the twenty-two organ isms isolated were fatal to labora- tory animols."
 One dog, according to .Dr. Deason, died ten hours after it was inoculated, and another was killed on the sixth day because the experimenters did not wish to see the animal suffer further.

 St. Louis Post-Despatch, July 30, 1911..
 The above facts, brought out as sworn testimony, presents the claims of pro-vaccinists in very different light than was the case here, when the members of the medical profess sion tried to humbug our Board of Education into granting them the privilege of subjecting the children of Bridgeport to the chance of acquir- ing one or the other of the diseases which, these experts admit. is to be found in all the virus referred to.
 Perhaps the opinion of that re- doubtabl champion of the blood poi soning cult, Dr. C. N. Haskell, is much more reliabale than the scien- lists above referred to.
 This case is going to be the cele- brated case of the country, as the gentlemen prosecuting it are men of means and pluck, and intend to car ry it to the highest court of the coun- try It is to be hoped that it will be settled once for all that no set of ig- norant legislators have the right to rob their fellow citizens of their nat uraI right, to serve the interest of the most despicable set of grafters who ever cursed the human race. This is a strong indictment to bring against a. body of respectable men, but un- fortunately is one that can be proven.

reached the highway that connects
