in Tolls in Iowa.

Fremont. Neb., Nov. 81. G.. Greg
DRY, alleged ex-convict, charged with
having stolen team of horses from a
Colome, S. D., man named Brinkman,
was arrested at Council Bluffs, accord

Sheriff Bauman, who tipped the Iowa
officers to the fact that Gregory was
in Council Bluffs.

team from a farmers barn near Co
lone, Oct. 3, and drove down through
Kansas by roundabout way to Coun-
Gil Bluffs. The authorities say he
sold one of the horses on the way

wounded Deputy Sheriff Moss at
Council Bluffs twenty years ago and
then made the wounded mans son
take him in a buggy the first lap OF
his flight. The gun man served a
twenty-year sentence from which he

Chang Sha, Province Of Human.
China, Nov Via Shanghai, Nov. 9.
"A condition bordering on anarchy
exists here owing to the desperate RI
valry of the revolutionary leaders who
took possession of the city few days
ago. The two most prominent repub-
lican chieftains, Generals Chiao and
Tseng, were both murdered by SOL
diers today. They had been very jeal-
Gus of each others positions, and
their quarrels had been taken up by
their followers.
In an effort to control the situation
Tan Tuanan, the republican governor,
has been proclaimed dictator. But he
is q scholar and not a leader, and Is
reported as anxious to avoid the re-

Chang Sha, and some of the members
OF the provincial cabinet, including
the head of the customs and the for

indiscriminate fighting are feared, and

Conference OF Church Dignitaries
Fails to Iron Out Trouble.
Topeka, Kan, Nov. 9.-The contro-
versy between Bishop David H. Moore
of Cincinnati, bishop of the Methodist
Episcopal church, and Mrs. Carrie E.
Cope, of Topeka, growing out of the
formation by Mrs. Cope of an auxil-
larry of the national branch of the
Women's Home Missionary society of
the Methodist Episcopal church,
reached a crisis yesterday afternoon
when suit for $4,000 damages against
the bishop was filed by Mrs. Cope.
The suit follows recent charges
made against Bishop Moore to the
Cope, alleging that Bishop Moore had
libelled her in a letter he had writ
ten on the subject of bequest OF
$4,000 left to the Women's Home
Mission society by Mrs. Fannie Muir
ray, of Atchison county, Kan.
This suit was filed after a confer
ence of the four Methodist Episcopal
bishops-Charles w. Smith, Portland.
Ore; James F. Berry, Buffalo, N. Y;
John j. Nuelsen, Omaha, and David
II. Moore, Cincinnati, held here in
the hope that the trouble between
Mrs. Cope and Bishop Moore could be
ironed out without creating further
controversy in the church. The meet
ing was behind closed doors and
many witnesses were heard, but nc
agreement was reached. The four
church dignitaries left for Denver to
look after church matters there.

UNCLE SAM HAS
NO CHIPS IN CAME
HE WILL NOT TAKE ANY STEPS
TOWARD TURCo-iTALIAN
INTERVENTION.

Washington, Nov. 9.-Report Of an
appeal made by Turkey to the Amer
lean government for Intervention at
Tripoli resulted in the issuing Of a
statement by Youssouf Zia Pasha, the
Turkish ambassador, declaring that
Turkey had no wish that the United
States should act as mediator to end
the Turco.Italian war.
THE call which the embassy made
on the Washington government Nov.
had for its object to request the
state department to intervene to bring
about cessation Of the atrocities com
mitted by the enemy against women
children and the defenseless popula
ton of Tripoli," said the ambassador
This appeal did not imply in any
form whatever a request for media
| ton, as has been reported in some
quarters"
Further official denials from the
! Italian government of the rumorec
atrocities by Italian troops at Tripod
were given out during the day through
the Italian embassy. Three cable
grams from the minister of foreign af
fairs, San Giuliano, were made public
by Marquis Cusani Confaloneri, tn,
ambassador The first of these said
81 beg your excellency to deny il
the most absolute and emphatic form
the alleged Italian cruelties. TIL
Arabs are the ones who are guilty o
atrocities against our soldiers"
Another of the dispatches denie
che statements heretofore made tina
Gen. Caneva had authorized the troop
to shoot all Arabs suspected Of hay
ing borne arms against the Italians
1t was stated that many of the Arab
actually found with arms in their pos
session were deported instead Of BIZ
ing shot
Apparently the state department
has decided to take no action upon tn
protest of the Turkish government
contenting itself with bare acknow
edgment of the receipt of the protes
and more closely watching develol
ments. The department officials ar
firm in their conviction that the issu
between Turkey and Italy is one thu
concerns European powers alone.
