Resolutions were adopted with
hurrah severely denouncing Governor
Wilson for his free trade views, his
weak administration, his continued
absence from official duties and his
violation OF the spirit OF the corrupt
practices act The resolutions con-
cluded as follows:
"His pandering to the railroad inter
ests in vetoing the grade crossing bill
which was designated TO lessen the
awful and unnecessary slaughter OF
human life at grade crossings through
out the state, and his hypocrisy in
denouncing some Of the leaders of his
party, when such denunciation seem
cd popular and his subserviency to
others when theis services were need
ed by him in building up his personal
political machine, demonstrates his
utter incapacity for the duties and
responsibilities of the great Office OF
president"
Former Governor Stokes, who was
a Roosevelt supporter in the primary
fight, swore new allegiance to the Re
publican party and was greeted with
a storm of applause when he declar-
ed: Those who desire good times

experience of Plevna. The works in the
Dardanelles are probably strong enough
to prevent any Italian cooperation with
the Bulgarian army. Horribly in lois
thought it an almost desperate undertake
ing to move a British squadron up these
against the opposition of the Turks. In
these days of long-range torpedoeS and
mechanical mines the risk for an adj
mirai has certainly been increased More
over. during the past six months the ar
mament of the Dardanelles forts has
been strengthened with modern guns of
the most powerful type.
Thus, all things considered, the pros
poets of the Balkan League do not ap-
pear particularly roseate. The killing of
the "sick man" will almost certainly prove
much more difficult business than
sanguine Servians or Bulgarians have
calculated. The Turks may be expected
to offer the most desperate resistance,
and at any moment the sultan may pro-
claim a holy war. The attitude of GER
tain powers which may play great
part in any struggle is still uncertain.
Roumanta. with an army as powerful
and as we'll organized as the Bulgarian,
has not as yet shown her hand. Aus
tria, with such overwhelming strength
and Montenegro, is not anxious to see
the Slav peoples of the Balkans in con-
troll OF Salonfki. Russia, despite her SYM
pathy with her co-religionists. would not
look with more favor upon the presence
Of Bulgaria at or near Constantinople.
If, as Marshal Won der Goltz has sug-
gested. the Turkish government can con-
clude peace with Italy and concentrate
all Its attention upon Bulgaria, the
Balkan peoples may have reason bitterly
to repent of their conduct. They will be
hard put to 1t to hold their own.

ELOPERS FROM VIENNA
MEET LUCK IN AMERICA
Parents of Girl Missing for Two
Years Now Extend
Forgiveness.
'oreign Correspondence Of The Star.

VIENNA, October 10, 1872.
A romantic story has been unfolded
here. Two years ago a wealthy mer-
chant informed the police that his daugh-
ter Henriette had suddenly disappeared.
The girl was engaged to a manufacturer
and on the eve of the wedding declared
that she was going out to make pur-
chases. She did not return.
A search was made for her, the in
quiries lasting months. Then the rela-
tives began to entertain the idea that the
girl might have committed suicide.
A short time ago the parents received
q letter from their missing daughter in
which she begged their forgiveness. She
declared that she had fallen in love with
a young man who was beneath her in
station. and that she preferred to marry
him rather than the wealthy manufac-
turer to whom she was engaged. She fled
with her lover to America, where the
marriage took place.
Her husband found work in a factory in
st. Joseph, and by his industry won the
sympathy of the proprietor, an old man.
When the latter died his will revealed
that he had left his factory to the young
emigrant.
When the good fortune came the fugi-
tive ventured to reveal her whereabouts
to her parents and to ask their pardon.
At first the parents did not believe the
story, but when the statements in the
letter were confirmed by detectives they
telegraphed their pardon and an invita-
ton for her to come home.

'reign Correspondence Of The Star.

LONDON, October IL, 1912
The tragedy of a husbands revenge. As
grim as anything in the pages OF Guy de
Maupassant was revealed in a King.e
Cross crime.
Mrs. Ellen Coxon, aged forty-eigft.
was found early in the morning terribly
wounded at her home on Judd street A
taxicab driver saw her leaning against
the first-foor window Of a room over a
BARRIERS shop. There was no other oe-
cupant of the room, but chopper was
lying by the side of the window.
The woman must have been attacked
while lying in bed. and had tried to pro-
tect herself for the first finger OF her
right hand had been cut through to the
bone. Her head was badly injured.
Her assailant had then left the room,
and had locked the door behind him. It
was only the fact that the injured woua-
an had been able to struggle to the win
dow that led to the discovery. She was
taken to the Royal Free Hospital, where
her condition is regarded as hopeless.
Her husband, Edwin Coxon, had only
just been released from Pentenvtlle
prison. having completed a term OF SIX
months hard labor for attacking her
with hammer. She was a reluctant
witness against him.
Scotland Yard searched for the husband
all day, and last evening found his body
in the Regents canal or Portland
road. west. He had drowned himself
after escaping from the scene OF the
crime.

ROBBERS OF ART WORKS
GET MURDERERS' CELLS
Cae-Sixth of Period of Imprisonment
to Be in Solitary Con-

MILAN. October H. 1912.
Six sacrilegiOus Tuscan robbers. be-
longing to a secret gang engaged in
stealing and smuggling Florentine works
Of art out of Italy, received exemplary
punishment at the Florence assizes today
They were found guilty of the theft of
the famous Madonna della Seggiola from
the tabernacle of the parish Church Of
Rovazzano Uzere. They also on an
other occasion carried of a Della Rob-

angel Gabriel. The most important charge
against them. however. was that Of the
robbery of Luca Della Robbia's Madonna

tuary, after hard nights toll In cutting
through the metal lattice work.
The head of the gang. an artist named
Pinarolo. accompanied by two accom-
p:ices. took the picture to Vienna. where
he hoped he would be able to dispose of
IL to an antiquary, who. not long before
had greatly admired the work during a
tour In Tuscany, but he declined to give
their lowest price-$20, 900. Thereupon
the three smugglers ingeniously redis-
patched the stolen picture to Italy to a
small station near Mugello Itself
The disappointed bidders for the pic
ture betrayed them to the police who ar
rested the trio when they crossed the
Italian frontier. Three other members of

NEW REGIME SKILLFUL.
China Evades Foreign Entangle-

dependence of The Star.


PEKING. October 3, 1912
There is growing establishment in for
eign circles in Picking as time discloses
the fact that the new regime despite its
many faults, is most skillful in slipping
out of the vicious circle Of financial and
diplomatic arrangements inherited from
the Manchus and of destroying overnight
the scheming of years.
Thus the new Belgian railway conces-
sion, the details of which are still kept
strictly secret and are much disputed, is
manifestly the first of the so-called lati-
tudinal railways projected by DR.. Sun
Yat-Sen. with the object of linking up the
most inland dominions with the seaboard.
The Belgian line. If matured, will run to
a point north Of the Yangtze. with vast
sweep westward, assuring immense
profits to railway material manufacturers
and the employment of hundreds Of mill
lions Of dollars in capital. Other enor-
mous building concessions will be al
lotted in 1913.

PASSING OF THE M0N0CLE.
No Longer Is It the Sign of Facial
Smartness, Even in France.
foreign Correspondence of The Star.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.
LONDON, October II, 1912.
The existence of the monocle, long pre-
carious in England, is now threatened in
France, perhapsits last stronghold. Ten
years ago every one here who was any
one wore 1t. The Partisan dandy would
have felt himself hardly decent without
1t. Even for those who made fewer pre-
tensions to smartness it was the neces-
sary adjunct Of evening dress.
The broad black ribbon from which it
was depended was held with justice to
complete the color scheme of the white
waistcoat Then the ribbon went out of
fashion. and if you wished to be in the
swim you had to retain your monocle in
place by fierce fixed frown and an up
ward tension of the muscles Of the cheek.
A sudden release Of the strain jerked the
monOcle from its orbit. when 1t was re-
trieved by the wearer's hand.
This gesture had an excellent and ar
FESTIVE effect on bores and impertinent
persons. It is not too much to say that
the monocle in the eye of the French
exquisite was as formidable a weapon as
the fan fluttered by the early Victorian
belle.
Now, alas. the monocle is no longer the
sign Of facial srnartness. but the older
generation still clings to it.
