BALKAN DANGER HAS NOT PASSED

Vienna, August -(SpeciaD--While
 the tension In the Balkans has been re- faxed somewhat the danger there has not passed by any means. The Albanian refugees are leaving Montenegro, but they are destitute and unless some steps are taken to put them on their feet again there Is little left but briganoage for them to turn their hands to.
 They have not and will not give up
 their arms, and they are very doubt ful of the intention of the Turks to keep their promises of reform.
 All the Malissor, irrespective of re- ligious tenets, now renew their demand
 for an international guarantee of the fulfllment of the promises of the Con-
 stantinople government as to the Reputable and honest collection of the land tax"
 Few know how close a general war
 in the Balkans was. King Nicholas of
 Montenegro, who fully determined to
 declare war against Turkey. Orders
 had been prepared for the mobilization of the entire Montenegro army. It was popular and every Montegrin fighting
 man was eager to join the colors. Had war been declared nothing could have prevented Greece and Bulgaria | joining in. Thousands of volunteers | would have flocked to the standard | from Italy, Hungary and the Austria's s

receive fair treatment did he reluct- antiy hold his hand. If these promises are not fulfilled, there Is bound to be a renewal of the trouble. It was the reactionary members of the Salonica committee who secured the appointment of Torgut Shevket Pasha to command Ottoman troops sent against the Al banian rebels. The moderates opposed his selection.
 When the atrocities perpetrated with his sanction began to horrify Europe, the moderates insisted upon his suppress sion. They argued that even if he put down the insurrection temporarily his career in Albania would furnish the British and American governments with budget of horrors such as Gladstone used effectively many years ago in his pamphlet on the Bulgarian Massacres."
 Abdallah Pashas appointment as Torguts successor put an end to reign of terror in South Albania, where Tor gut had been killing the off Mussul- man Malissori as freely as Catholic Malissori because the former joined the latter in refusing to attend meetings called by Torgut to denounce Albanian autonomy.

She came out of prison on July F. and immediately began her search for abiana- Her in- dustry was rewarded few evenings ego when she met Fabana and her lover in the Piazza Colonno. Compliments were exchanged and in the end Fabianis lover struck Nobili, who thereupon challenged her rival to a rustic duel" The ehal- lenge was accepted and the duel was arranged to take place at o'clock that evening.
 At the appointed hour the combatants and their respective suites were on the spot. They faced each other for mom- ent, holding stilettoes in their hands. A particularly gross insult from Fabiani stung Nobili to fury, and bounding for ward she plunged the weapon up to the handle in Fabianis body. In spite of the terrible wound inflicted Fabiani con- tinued to battle, and the two women slashed at each other. Meanwhile the seconds were becoming anxious to take part in the battle The friends of Nobili were armed with knives, those of Fabiani with cudgels. Soon the cudgels were whirling in the air, dealing blows on the backs. arms and legs, while the men with the knives sought in vain to get to close quarters with their opponents. Nobili clenched with Fabiani and bit her se- verely on the wrist. Then her cavak ITS finding that they could not overcome their adversaries, cudgels up the contest and rushed off along the Via Vineto. Fa- bianis supporters gave chase.
 While Nobili was washing her face at a fountain two agents came up and ar rested her. as well as her supporters, who had returned. Fabiani was taken in a desperate condition to hospital, where at first she refused to say how she had become wounded.
 When she at last told the story and the whole drama came to light, Fabianis 5 supporters were arrested also.

itself a long invited cholera scare, With
 the result that the press and public alike Iare in a state of great apprehension. Marseilles has become infected with the plague, other towns and seaports have reported suspicious cases, and strict quarantine seems only a matter of days. Yet amid all the excitement that these reports have engendered among the popu- lace the government itself seems to be lloath to admit the seriousness of the ru- mors and seems inclined to fight the threatened epidemic with equivocal secre- ey-a method that is far from popular with the frightened citizens, who believe lfrankness and efficience are synonomous.
 This official equivocation was rendered still more unpopular when 1t became known yesterday that the under secretary of state for the interior had called upon the Pasteur institute of Paris to furnish serum and representatives to combat the Marseilles outbreak, and when Parisian officials persisted in denying that there was cholera in Paris despite well known existence of suspicious cases.

 John the Baptist a short time ago.
 So anxious were the photographers to
 secure good copy for their respective sheets on this occasion that they literally
 mobbed the bridal party, tearing the veil i from the brides head, striking the bride

 the church, where they made such a
 scene that Mile. Steinhei fainted and the
 photographers had to be evicted with

Elephants Grow Bolder

Capetown, August 19.-(Spe pecial.)- Owing to the rapidly decreasing num- Der of licenses which are being taken out in Uganda and the consequent i'm munity of the elephants from attack. these animals. which have always been a source of danger to the inhabitants and of damage to crops. have become still more dangerous and destructive, and they are becoming bolder in ap- preaching inhabited areas. Reports are constantly coming in from admin istrative officers. telegraph officers and others of the destruction caused by their devastating habits It is possible that sooner or later elephants will have to be shot out, save in such portions of this protectorate as may be expressly set apart as reserves for them. Al present there is no doubt that much hardship is Inflicted on the natives; but the position will become more acute.

SCARE OVER CHOLERA
By GEO. DUFREsNE

Paris, August 9.-(SpeciaD, France torn by political dissention, governed by a chamber of deputies whose compl eXion lchanges with chameleon like rapidity and whose army is the creature of politi- cal exploitation, Is at last awakened to a realization of the danger that threatens her internal peace through the activities of her warning political parties and dplo- matic difficulties with her neighbors. She lis reaching coalition through fear, inter- nal friendship through danger and roliti- cal efficiency through the addition of each.
 Churchmen, royalists, socialists and laborites have awakened from their right mare of personal conflict. have refegated their differences to the limbo of forgotten grudges. and are joining hands in an al- Hance of friendship such as has not been evident for many decades. Instead of making the meetings of the chamber hideous with passionate Gallic denuncia- lions and advancing their own peculiar political creeds, the dissenting parties are | facing the diplomatic cruises that the war | in Morocco. internals troubles and unsta- ble government has thrust upon them.
 They are beginning a reform movement, the magnitude of which only future events can outline, and they are begin ming it with the most essential and most neglected part of the government ue- partment-the army.
 | For years ministers of war have come l and gone. and for years the appointment of a head of the French army in time or peace has been left for seemingly more l important matters, with the result that de1noralization of the military become complete. And with the result that that body of well trained, though politically maltreated men, has been left 10 take care of itself-a condition that has split | if into militantly hostile factions and has undermined its efficiency.
 To remedy this condition, to bring order from chaos and efficiency from turmoil, the new government has sanctioned the appointment of a definite head Of mill tarv affairs, whose duty it is to supervise the army with the same care that would | be exercised in times of war. This new commander-ifi- chief is General Joffe, soldier of known merit and impregnaole loyalty. whose duty it will be to keep the army in the high state of efficiency that French policy demands.
