TURKEY APPEALS TO
THE UNITED STATES
Italians Said to Be- Committing
Atrocities in TripOIi

Washington, Nov. VOC. -The So
called italian barbarities" in Tripoli
have been brought officially to the at
tention of the American government
in such form that some declaration of
the position of the state department in
the matter is now expected.
The subject was first preached in a
verbal statement by the Turkish am
bassador to Acting Secretary Adee,
and later in the day it came up in a
letter. In each case the ambassador,
who said he was acting by express in
structiOns cabled by his government,
described the acts attributed to the
Italian troops and protested in the
name of humanity against the atroci-
ties committed by them against help
less women and children and non
combatants.
By order of his government the am
bassador appealed to the United
States to exert itself to put stop to
the practices which, he declared,
were in plain violation of the rules
of warfare and in contravention of
The Hague convention to which the
United States and Italy are parties.
Adee promised to submit the protest
to Secretary Knox, who at present is
absent from Washington.

Bean was arrested. He was held in
the Guildhall jail for several weeks,
and short time after the prelim-
mary hearing, was examined by
allienists, the court granting a mo-
ton of the defence to that end.
From the time of the arrest he
steadily maintained that he did not
shoot his mother and sister. At the
inquest he assigned robbery as the
probable motive for killing but was
unable to explain the fact that moth
ing in the house was disturbed and
that sum of money on the mantle
piece was intact. Since the hearing,
Bean has refused to discuss the case
in any way.

There is no sense in getting eX-
cited over the governments attempt
to dissolve the big steel corporation.
1t is the duty of the executive de-
parment to enforce the law as it
stands interpreted by the courts, and
it is the duty of the department of
justice to interpret the interpreted
ton and act accordingly. In the
present instance, after due consider
alton, elaboration, and consulta-
ton with the President, the Attor-
ney-General concludes that the Steel
company, its creators, trustees, and
directors, have performed acts which
conflict with the defined meaning of
the famous statute of 1890. He
thereupon files a bill in the Circuit
court to compel the dissolution of
the corporation. The propriety of

Koyport, Aug. 1:-Keyport today
Is holding it's tenth carnival. 1t Is
safe to say that with n exception,
event has been greater than the one
before. There has been nothing that
has given the town more publicity
than these carnivals and they have
now cor 20 be looked upon as rivals
to the famous baby parades and car
nivals at Asbury Park ar = other
seaside resorts.
While this is the tenth event OF
this kind in the history of Keyport
1t does not mean that there has
been one held every year for tho
past ten years. There was n year,
1903, when it appeared that the peo-
pie had ,st interest in such events
and there was not enough enthu-
siasm to start the movement. The
carnival was revived the year fol-
lowing and has continued since In
Increasing %splendor.
At the beginning the Keyport car
nival was entirely on the water. The
beautiful harbor made an ideal place
for decorated boats and a display of
uTeWOTkS. Inc W~6dtnSTDudU has q
great deal to do with an event OF
this kind taking place or the water,
however, and one or two storms on
the night fixed for the event SO dis
couraged those who were backing
the carnival that the water was
abandoned and now the celebration
takes place entirely on land and is
-alescst wholly in the daytime. But
the change took place gradually,
so that the people hardly knew that
1t was being brought about Today
t%are are many who would like to
nArs water feature restored, be-
lieving thSt with the BABY parade
and professions during tho day and
the water features at Light the at
fair could be made mucn more at
tractive.
The first carnival in Keyport was
held on the water, July 81, 1901,
1t was under the auspices of the
Keyport band. The band was seated
on a large off Gross's bothing
houses, where it ~discoursed charm
ing music, while hundreds of people
gathered alor" the water front tc
listen. After a .nu tel program had
been rendered the launch, Flora
owned by Captain William E
Wooley took the GOV on which the
uand was seated In tow and, followed
by many decorated boats, swung
around in a large circle. While this
procession was goinl<an fireworks

The second carnival was held or
Friday, August %, 1902. With the
idea of making this more elaborate
than tho previous n the bands o.
Keyport, Matawan and Keansbure
united to furnish music. AS is Of
ten the case, however, this second at.
tempt was not as successful as the
first one. The people were &c
highly pleased with the carnival held
the year previous that their expccta'
tions had exceeded the ability to pro.
duce, and as a result there was
some disappointment. This carniva,

was no difficulty in picking her as a

consisted of hundreds OF japanese
lanterns, strung to represent a full
