ANOTHER SENATOR
JOINS WILSON

Washington. u. c., March 2l-
Special United States SEN
ator today joined the already large list
of democrats in that body who favor
the nomination of Governor Woodrow
Wilson for the presidency. Senator
E. D. Smith, OF South Carolina, who
has been claimed by both the Clark
and Underwood forces, came out to-
day in favor OF the nomination of Gov
ernor Wilson. expressing the opinion
that the New Jersey executive is the
most formidable candidate the demoe-
racy can nominate for the presidency
In giving his reasons for favoring
the nomination OF Governor Wilson the
South Carolina senator said.
Il have heard Governor Wilson
speak on three spearate occasions. On
two of these occasions, it was when
others aspiring for the presidency also
spoke At the Jackson Day banquet,
held in the city of Washington, demo
Gratis aspiring for the presidential NOM
ination spoke together with him.
TN Philadelphia, at the Periodical
Publishers Association banquet,
heard Governor Wilson when aspirants
for the republican nomination also
spoke
"On both these occasions, as on the
occasion when he spoke alone, he inn
pressed me as being a profound stu
dent of the philosophy of government
l consider that his expressions as to
the theory of government, and the
comparison of this theory with that
now in practical existence, was by
odds the clearest and most convincing
of any expressed on these several oc-
casions. He, of course, as a student
a college president-would be consid
cred, and is considered by great num-
Der, a theorist, that is, an impractical
one. But his every utterance indicates
that he has a clear comprehension of
the fact that the so-called practical
politics. is but another name for the
corrupt and corrupting tendencies
that must sooner or later undermine
the very foundations of our republican
form of government, by increasing the
army of malcontents as well as the
unjustly protected number of those
specially favored.
81 believe that Governor Wilson is
the most available candidate that the
democrats have in the field for the
presidency. His work as governor of
New Jersey, in bringing into the fold
of democracy state otherwise hope
lessly republican; his elimination of
boss" rule and corruption in that
state illustrates his ability to put into
practice as national executive the
theory that he advocated
II am convinced in the light of his
political career in New Jersey, his pub
lie utterances as a candidate for the
presidency, and above all, the frenzied
opposition toward him of certain news
papers, periodicals and individuals,
that he is the most formidable candi-
date that the democrats can nominate
for the presidency and support against
any nominee of the republican party. >

DAY Of CRISES IN
BALKANS BR0|L
Anniversary of Bulgarian indie
pendence Expected to Bring
Declaration of War.

VIENNA, Oct. 5.--This is the day Of
crises in the Balkan situation. Aus
TRAN diplomats anXious,y awaited news
from Bulgaria that they predicted
would determine peace or war between
the allied Kingdoms and the Moslem
empire. The anniversary of Bulgarian
independence was celebrated at Sofia
today and fears were openly expressed
here that Car Ferdinand and his adj
visers would use the occasion TO pro-
claim war on Turkey, appealing to the
patriotic spirit of the Bulgarians
one diplomat thus summed up the
situation today:
IF actual war is not proclaimed by
night we can hope for the best. Even
If war is declared there Will stu be
chance. but a slight one. The powers
NAV have influence enough TO prevent
hostilities If they act in unison"

Turkish People
Clamor for w ar

CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 5-Prac-
ticaI confirmation Of the reports that
RuIgarian troops have crossed the
Turkish frontier were secured mere TO-
dav. The war ministry announced tha'
there had been skirmishes between Bui-
cars and Turks on Turkish territory
There was no information available,
however that the main Bulgarian army
had moved into Turkey.
Grand Vizier Ghazi Pacha declared
that the ottoman government would do
everything compatible with dignity to
avert war although he declared that
Turkish outposts had also reported the
invasion Of Turkish territory by Greek
and Servian troops, and that 1t would
be necessary for the government to
maintain It's prestige by force of arms
# these reports were true.
Although the grand vizier said that
conservatives in the government are
opposed to the Young Turks demand
for immediate declaration of war the
spirit Of the people must be reckoned
with and the popuace Is almost as a
unit in calling for war.
A remarkable feature OF the public
demonstrations here is the great num-
Der OF women who take part In them,
Hitherto women have remained in the
background when affairs Of moment
were in the balance in the Turkish cap
ital. but in this instance they arc
moved either by patriotism or the
twentieth century spirit of unrest.
The Turkish government Is declared
to be in position to carry on hostiIi-
ties on an extensive plane, The war
with Italy cost but a fraction Of the
money 1t has cost Italy because the
Turkish government was unable to ex-
pand its operations beyond Tripou
The Turkish war chest Is said to be SO
well filled that a loan is not needed

from Italy would be forthcoming with

the men proved efficient and ready for
real warfare at any time.
Men with drawn bayouets and loaded
guns guarded the cells in which the

SLAIN IN BAT TIE
Six Others Are Wounded in
Capture of Rebel Strong
hold in Nicaragua.

WASHINGTON, Oct 5.-That the
long expected battle between American
marines and Nicaraguan rebels was
fought yesterday at Barranca hill was
the information received at the state
department today in a cablegram from
Minister Wetzel at Managua
This stated that American marines
charged up Barranca hill and dislodged
the forces of General zeledon, the rebel
leader, which were intrenched at that
point.
The minister reported that several
American marines were killed and that
General Zeledon had been fatally
wounded. The battle lasted for 81
minutes and was fiercely fought.
An earlier dispatch received by Min
lister Castrilo, of Nicaragua, from the
minister of foreign affairs at Managua,
stated that four American marines had
been killed and six wounded in the
fighting.
Barranca hill is located near the
town of Coyotepa, which was afterward
occupied by the American forces
Rebels Ordered to Vacate.
Previous dispatches to the state de-
.partment said that the American COM
mander in Nicaragua Admiral South
erand, had given General Zeledon "a
hours notice to vacate Barranca hill
and allow the passage of the American
forces. The time limit of this ulti-
matum expired at 10 a IN. yesterday,
but nothing had been heard as to the
outcome until the receipt Of today's
dispatches.
later cablegram to the Nicaraguan
legation here says that 100 Nicaraguan
government troops were killed and 200
wounded.
General Ieledon was fatally wounded
and captured eight miles from Masaya
while retreating from Barranca hill
and died shortly afterWard.
Rapid Fire Guns Effective.
The use of rapid fire guns on both
sides of the hill is supposed to have
done fearful execution among the reb-
els at the top. According to the re-
ports received, the marines opened up
with their rapid fire guns for fifteen
minutes and during that time silenced
the fire of the rebels
Five hundred men were stationed on
one side and 400 opposite them. The
reports state that the marines soon got
the range of the intrenchments and
swept the hill with a terrific cross fire.
There was no opposition of serious
nature when the charge up the hill was
begun.
