LITTLE IS KNOWN DEFINITELY OF THE
 WAR SITUATION -.s.--~---- Impossible to Gather Truth From the Mass of Con
 flicting Reports TURKISH FLEET
 NOT DESTROYED Landing of Italians at Prevesa Is Deeply Resented by Austria and Germany, Which May Bring
 About Complications

London, October 1.--Out of d perfect maze of conflicting reports it is utterly impossible at the present stage to sift one grain Of truth concerning the open ing days of the Turco-Italian war. It appears even doubtful whether there has been any actual occupation of Tri- poll. and it is practically certain that there has been no bombardment by the Italian warships
 It sems equally certain that the de- struction of the Turkish fleet is false. In fact the only result of the first three days of hostilities which can be vouch- safed Is the destruction of the Turkish destroyers by the Duke D'Abruzzis ships off Prevesa. The Tripoli cable IS closely sealed so it is impossible 70 know what Is going on.
 The Ottoman government clearly is not giving out news and the most sig nificant happenings was the councils action looking to the powers and in the meantime suspending offensive meas ures. The new appeal had not reached the British government late tonight and there Is nothing to indicate any thing new has developed. One news paper declares the representations will meet with Italy's displeasure and says the negotiations will be followed in an other shape ''by humiliating tactics" According 10 information in diplo- matic sources the landing of the Ital- ians at Prevesa is greatly resented by Austria and Germany and had much to do with their reported attitude to- ward Italy.
 | Turkeys internatio policy ac- counts In large measure for her hes- tancy in taking the offensive. Said | Pasha the new grand vizier, continues | his efforts to form a coalition ministry, but finds the task one of almost in- | superable difficulty.

urer general OF Persia Russia

territory. Persia has backed
down, but Shuster hasn't. This
one American. citizen may cause-a
war just because he wont give in
to the car.
Shuster was employed by Per-
STA to- put the finances of that
disabled country on a firm foot
ing. President Taft recommended
him. Shuster went to Persia a
few months ago with four other
hustling Americans. F. S. Cairns
was made director of taxation;
Charles L. McCaskey- was made
inspector of provincial revenue;
Ralph w: Hills was made audit
ing chief; Bruce C.. Dickey was
made Inspector of taxation.
This was very displeasing to
Russia and England. These
powers don't, wish Persia's
finances to be on a good footing.
They desire the country to re-
main weak and helpless, so some
day they may come in and divide
it among themselves.
Shuster instituted reforms that
made the rock-ribbed grafters of
Persia howl. His honest methods
of business are a delightful mys-
terry of the Persians.
Russia has tried every plan and
;pretext to hinder Shuster's work.
1t has seized upon excuses to
bring troops across the frontier
and to demand that Shuster's
work be undone.. Shustet may

neglect of this territory by past con
 gressmen but it is only fair to say that while many things have been neglect cd few thoers have been generously dealt with. and on the whole the legis- lative branch of the government can not be accused of any lack of liberal ity towards this teriitroy It is a supriseingly common subject of re- mark that Alaska contributes much more 10 the federal treasury ill the way of taxes than is expended by the government in the Territory. No i'm pressiou could be farther from the truth. The fact is ct Congress has every year since ta Tc.itory was ac- quired expended moro rnhlic money in Alaska than has leea derived from Alaska, and for the last several years the expenditures have been from four to six times as much as the receipts from all sources in Alaska.

FROM THE GOVERNORS OFFICE

The annual estimates transmitted to congress this month by the Secretary of the Treasury of appropriations need ed for public objects in Alaska are larger by about S45,000 than those of last year. and probably larger than in any year in the history of the ter ritory except when the estimates were submitted for the construction of the Alaska telegraphie cable These esti- mates call for eleven direct appropria- tions for this territory, aggregating sS4S,430. as against sS05,5S0 last year. These appropriations, however, by no means include all those which will be applicable. in whole or in part. to Al aska. as many of the objects of ex- penditure in this territory are de- frayed from large general appropria- tions of congress which are intended to include federal projects all over the United States. Neither does the az gregate given above include the sal aries of any public officers except those employed under the Fisheries Service and the appropriations for game pro- tection and suppression of the liquor traffic. If all those parts of general appropriations applicable to Alaska werer added to the direct appropriat- ions for this Territory, the total would be in the neighborhood of two million dollars.
 The total revenues collected in Alas Ia, contrary to general belief, are not more than one fifth or one-fourth of the amount of public money which the government spends every year in the territory. The total revenues in Alas turin gthe last fiscal year. exclusive only of the local internal revenue re- ceipts, were only s396,135.
 This years estimates of direct, spe- eifie appropriations for Alaska, not including the salaries of any officers. the whole cost of the administration of justice (which alone is about s50o,- 000 year,) or any of the large, gen. eral appropriations which are appliea- ble, in part, to this territory, are as follows
