ITALYS WAR
DECLARATION
The Evasive Reply OF Turkey

A VERY INClSIvE DOCUMENT

bassador in Rome and Demands
Same for Its Representative
in ConstantinopIe.

Constantinople.-Following is the
text Of the declaration which the ltal-
ian Charge handed to the Porte.
THE Italian Embassy, carrying out
the orders OF the King, has the honor
10 notify you that the delay accorded
by the Royal Government TO the
Porte, with a view TO the realization
OF certain necessary measures, has
expired without a satisfactory reply
reaching the Italian government. The
lack OF this reply only confirms the
bad will, or want of power, of which
the Turkish government and authori-
ties have given such frequent proof,
especially with regard to the rights
and interests of Italians in Tripoli
and Cyrenica.
The Royal Government conse-
Quently Is obliged itself to safeguard
it's rights and interests, as well as it's
honor and dignity, by all means at its
disposal. Events which will follow
can only be regarded as the necessary
consequences of conduct followed so
long by the Turkish authorities.
The relations of peace and friend.

tween the countries, Italy considers
herself from this moment In a state
OF war with Turkey. | have there

Your Highness that passports will be
placed at the disposal OF the Charge
d'Affalres at Rome, and | beg Your
Highness to hand passports to the
representative of the Royal Govern

reside in Italy without fear Of an at
tack upon their persons, property or
affairs"

The establishing OF an age limit for
operators OF automobiles is a perfectly
reasonable proposition. A powerful
machine, with all its possibilities of
speed. in streets used by men. women
and children. is entirely too danger

TRUST LAW Is TO BE
STRICTLY ENFORCED
President Taft crltlcises Argument
That Prosecutions Hurt
Business.

Waterloo, Iowa. President Taft
faced the middle West with an ap-
peal to check unjust prejudice against
the business enterprise OF the coun.
try.
The President, in his speech defin-
ing The Relation Of the Govern

the trust prosecutions begun by the
Department of Justice at Washing

cent criticism that business was be
Ing made TO suffer He served notice
that the big business interests" Of
the country must be brought within
the law, as have the railroads, and
declined TO admit there exists any
discretion which would enable the At
iorney General to stay the hands Of
the Government
AT the same time the President
made an earnest appeal for reasona-
ole consideration Of the railroads and
the big Industrial corporations on the
ground that their reformation was be
ing brought about steadily and salts
tactorily, and that nothing was TO be
gained by "vindictife hostility" He
bitterly denounced those politicians
who seek to arouse the prejudices of
the people and to array one section
of the country against another. Such
utterances, he said, were those of
"blindest OF men"

believed the business community was

cent decisions of the Supreme Court
and that large corporations were pre-
airing to square themselves with

the Progressives in Congress. Presi-
dent Taft said, ii is not a progressive
policy in any true sense to be hostile

GIRL Is HELD IN NEW
ORLEANS AS P0IS0NER
Accused Of Murder of Father, Mother
and Two Slsters-CIalmed In
surance on All.

New Orleans.-In the arrest here
of Annie Crawford, aged twenty-nine,
an alleged drug fiend, on the charge
OF poisoning her younger sister, Ell
sic, pretty stenographer, the police
took their first step in an avowed eff
fort to reveal the woman as a modern
Lucretia Borgia.
Three other members of the Craw-
ford family have died under mysteri-
Gus circumstances within the last
fifteen months, and Annie Crawford
was the beneficiary named in the in
surance policies on the life OF each.
The policies she held on all four
amounted TO only s1,750, and the po-
lice say the girl spent almost all the
money for clothes.
Elsie Crawford died suddenly and
under circumstances so suspicious
that the Coroner had the contents of
the stomach analyzed by an expert
chemist. The finding of traces Of
morphine was followed by the arrest
of the sister
Annie Crawford made a part con.
fession to the District Attorney. She
admitted, they say, that she admin
istered morphine by mistake to her
sister Elsie.
The first of the Crawford house.
hold to die was Mary Agnes, sister OF
the prisoner. Her death occurred
June 25, 1910, suddenly, supposedly OF
acute meningitis. Three weeks after,
July 10, 1910, her father died uraemic
poisoning being given as the cause.
After an interval OF two weeks, or on
July %, 1910, her mother died In
her case uraemic poisoning was also
given as the cause.
Annie Crawford, the police say,
held insurance policies on the lives
OF the deceased In the following
amounts:
Walter c. Crawford, father, $500:
Mrs. Crawford, mother, $40O Mary
Agnes Crawford, sister, $500; Elsie
Crawford. sister, $3.50. On the Mon
day morning following her sisters
death Annie made demand on the in
surance company for the money. She
also went TO the railroad office where
her sister had been employed as
stenographer and collected s45 due
the dead girl.
For several years Annie Crawford
had charge of the drug department OF
the Presbyterian Hospital She lost
her position there more than a year
ago. 1t is alleged, following the disap,
pearance of quantity Of drugs.

Whar a Husband Replied.

Among the bargains to be found
these days are womens hats, and q
fashionable young Philadelphia wife,
who has all the hats she can wear
without exciting suspicion, could not
resist the temptation to add lust one
more" to the collection. When she
reached home, she produced it for
hubbys admiration.
Howard, it's a poem!" she said.
"Yes, but 1t doesn't rhyme well
with my pocketbook at this time," he
commented.

POWERS AcQUIEScING,
May Not object to Seizure of TrlpoIl
by Italy.

London.-Italy is seizing Tripoli
with the acquiescence of the powers.
1t is understood that she would not
have sent her ultimatum to Turkey
II she had not previously informed the
powers OF her intention and received
an intimation that there would be no
Intervention.
Apprehensions prevail in some quar-
ters that Italian aggression may have
the effect OF overthrowing the Young
Turk regime in Constantinople and
provoking a general Mahometan up
rising, the consequences OF which to
the British Empire 1t is impossible to
exaggerate.
Constantinople.-Th Porte refused
to entertain Italy's latest ultimatum.
holding that IL is incompatible with
the honor Of the nation.
Turkey was prepared TO concede al
most every possible condition in order
to save her face and preserve her ter
ritorial integrity. but Italy's demands
were regarded as extreme.
That Turkey after a show OF TO
sistance will submit seems almost an
accomplished fact.
