ALLIES GIVE THE TURKS
ONE DAY TO END WAR
UItimatum of TWeny-Four
Hours Is EdiCt of Balkans
on Subject of Peace
Csy Associated Press.)

LONDON, Dec 1S.-Peace plentipoten-
tiaries of the Balkan allies met inform
ally today to decide on their plan of &C
ton in the eventuality of Turkey de-
clining to raise her boycott of the Hell
lenic delegates unless Greece signs the
armistice.
The allies in the course of yesterday
meeting of the peace conference at st.
James palace made it quite clear that
they would not enter into negotiations
without Greece being allowed to partici-
pate, and DR.. s. Daneff, leader of the
Bulgarian delegation, is quoted as say
ing:
IF, on Thursday, the reply Of the Otto
man delegates is not satisfactory, we
will break off negotiations and meeI
again at the Tchatalja lines. That will
be the end of Turkey in Europe"
The consensus of opinion here, how
ever, is that the present obstacle will
be surmounted by the delegates and that
the real danger will be over the future
possession of the fortress of Adrianople
AS far as can be seen at present only
mediation by an outside power can solve
this problem.
Incidentally under the alphabetical ar
rangement of the presiding officer of the
peace conference, tomorrow's chairman
should be the leader of the Greek mis-
sion. 1t is assumed that a substitute
will be chosen pending the settlement OF
the controversy.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.-THE log
Of the liner Korea, which arrived yes
terday from the Orient, reads like the
table of contents of dime novel One
day out from San Francisco, a Chinese
passenger jumped overheard and was
drowned
Another Chinese passenger was claim
ed as the victim of Tong war before
the ship reached Honolulu. He had
sought to save his life by fight from
San Francisco's China town, but a gun
man from the enemys ranks sailed with
him on the Korea, and found an oppor-
tunity to fire the fatal bullet. The slayer
is held by the federal authorities at
Honolulu.
Before the liner left that port another
Chinese made an unsuccessful attempt
to commit suicide and day later still
another Chinese jumped overheard to his
death.
At Yokohama, on the homeward voy-
age, a Japanese peddler plunged a knife
into the back Of Andrew Benussi, a
Waterman on the ship. The peddler fed,
but was captured on another ship in the
harbor. Benussi recovered.
On December E. c. Miller, a cabin
passenger from Manila, was giving his
two-year-old son a bath when he acct
dentalIy turned on the hot water. The
child was scalded so badly that it died
an hour later.

PAROLE HIS REWARD FOR
SAVING WARDEN'S LIFE
Governor Pardons Negro Who
Was Serving Life Sentence
in Sumter

AS reward for his having saved the
life of Warden John Christian. a year or
so ago, when there was mutiny among
the convicts in the Sumter county camp,
Mitt Hammond. a negro life termer. was
Wednesday put on parole by Governor
Brown.
The mutiny in the Sumter county
camp was a part of general plan of a
number of desperate negro c0nvicts to
make their escape. Warden Christian
was set upon one day when he went
into the stockade, and would doubtless
have been killed had it not been for
Hammond, who sprang to his aid and
by engaging in a fierce hand-to-hand
fight with the convicts, afforded time
for the warden to draw his pistol, thus
saving his life and preventing the es-
cape of the negroes.
A number Of prominent Sumter coun-
ty citizens, feeling that Hammond
bravery and heroism, were entitled to
reward, petitioned for a parole for him.
The prison commission recommended
the parole and the governor granted it..
Hammond was convicted in Decatur
county in 1898 for the murder of anoth-
er negro and given a life sentence.
