Washington, June 20.-"Holed
through today"
This was the laconic message re-
layed by telephone from Qninton in
the Wasatch Mountains, Utah, and
flashed by wire today to the Reclama-
ton Service here. It marked the COM
pletion of the Strawberry Tunnel, one
of the largest and most difficult pieces
of engineering work the reclamation
service ever has been called upon to
undertake.
With one exception this under
ground waterway tunnel is the largest
in the world. Many hard engineer
ing problems had to be overcome in
planning It; and great physical en-
durance was required of the men who
carried out the work.
The tunnel pierces the solid rock
of one Of the highest peaks Of the

Apoplexy at Hotel Brevoort.

contractor of Chambersburg, Penn, died
suddenly last night at the Hotel Bre-

trustees OF the Delta Epsilon fraternity.
The meeting had been called pursuant 10
recently held at the University of Wis
consin. ard the first OF the questions as
to fraternity policy, which had been re-
ferred to the trustees, was being dis
cussed, when Mr. Buchanan was seen to
sway in his chair and then fall to the
floor.
DR.. j. Milton Mabbott of No. 10 Fifth
avenue, was sent for while the fraternity
men vainy endeavored to revive Mr..
Buchanan. They were still working over
the stricken man when the physician ar
rived Dr. Mabbott said death had been
almost instantaneous, and was probably
due to apoplexy.
After Mr.. Buchanan's body had been
removed the meeting was again called to

There are supposed to be about ten

Washington. Nov. 20.-Aithough without
confirmation OF the reported massacre Of
Christians in Jafa, the officials here
admit they have been apprchensiye Of
such troubles on the Syrian coast. where
the religious differences between the Ma
hometans and the Christians are more
pronounced than in any other part OF the
ottoman Empire.
American interests IN that quarter are
large, not only owing TO the extensive
fruit trade. but because of the presence
Of "A large number OF American mission

twenty miles Of Jaffa, which is the port
Of Jerusalem, are three important Amerl-
can missionary stations-Tavyibeh, Ra-

large Jewish population, but so far II Is
not known that they have been disturbed

TURKISH STATEMENT HOAX
Diplomats Don't Believe Recent
Arrests Were of Students.

London, Nov. 20.-Both ottoman and
foreign interest in Constantinople is great
ly concerned In the large number OF ar
rests Of politicians and writers belonging
to the party Of Union and Progress
According to special dispatch from
the Turkish capital, the ottoman govern
ment through a local press agency has
Issued a statement that only forty arrests
have been made, and that the sole reason
for these was the organization Of demon
stration by university students In front OF
the government offices on October Z.
At first the most remarkable stories
were circulated in explanation of the ar
rests. With a view Of influencing Mus
sulman opinion, it was explained that the
Unionists were plotting to establish a re-
public. An attempt was also made to
divert Christian and foreign sympathy
from the arrested men by the circulation
Of report that the object OF the organi-
zation was to arrange massacres and to
blow UP the foreign quarter at Pera.
These reports were so manifestly and
clumslly false that the Turkish govern
ment felt Itself constrained TO Issue to-
days statement regarding the students.
Diplomatic circles, however, attribute the
arrests TO a very different reason. They
believe they were due to the nomination
by the Sultan at the behest of the Union
lists OF MahmOud Shefket Pacha as In
spector- General of the army. This action
was intended to cause the fall OF the
Ottoman cabinet.
Neither the public nor counsel for the
defence was admitted to the courts mar
tial which tried the arrested Unionists.

1t is believed in we'll info

the fall of Monastir 10. the country OF
the Arnaut tribesmen, her relations
with Austria Hungary will, it is
thought, be further imperilled.
Meanwhile, however, the reports that
orders for the mobilization Of the
Austro- Hungarian army had been
issued are to-day officially declared I'M
true.
The more amenable attitude of Ser
via is doubtless partly due to the ac-
ton of the German and Italian govern
ments at Belgrade. Their interests also
are affected, as the Germans and Ital-
ians at Prisrend are under the protec-
ton Of the Austrian Consulate. The
two governments therefore warmly
supported the Austro-Hungarian rep
reservations.
Courts-martial at Constantinople are
busily engaged sentencing members
of the Young Turk party to terms OF
Imprisonment. Nineteen of them were
disposed of yesterday. Deputy Ca
rasso, Of Salonica, has been arrested.
A private letter received by a bust
ness firm from Constantinople and
dated November 10 says that under
martial law order is being better kept
than ever before in that city. 1t con-
cludes:
You can take this from an old bust

ways be left to Turkey and that trou-
BILE will never occur in the way people
