GENERAL DENIAL
MADE BY FOGEI
Full Statement Withheld Till
League Meeting

New York, Oct pa general denial
of charges brought by the National
League against Horace Fogel, presi-
dent of the leagues Philadelphia club
in this city on Oct. II, are contained in
letter received today by President
Thomas j. Lynch.
Mr.. Fogels letter expressed def
ance of the right of the National Lea

that further, it was fixed" for the

With the Split in Ranks Of
rhe 6. 0. P.

Harrisburg, Pa, Oct EFF 100000
Pennsylvania republicans vote for
/ President Taft, Governor Wilson will
carry this state. II fewer republicans
/ than that remain regular, the state
will be in serious doubt, with the race
between Wilson and Roosevelt, with
the odds on the former.
This much can be set down as reas-
onably certain after an investigation
of the condit ons in all of Pennsyl-
bania west of Philadelphia With the
reform spirit strong in that city and
with the d-line politicians fort fed
Tiers as nowhere else in the state
Philadelphia may in the end swing
violently one way or the other and
change all prediction calculations.
Should President Taft prove hope
lessly weak on election day and his
vote fall behind 250,O0O, Roosevelt
would undoubtedly lead. That is, he
would lead unless there were enough
dissatisfied republicans who would
support Governor wilson to offset the
big majority in the old party which
Roosevelt started the fight with.
That there is an enormous dissatis-
fed republ can vote in Pennsylvania
cannot be questioned The figures Of
the late primary show that. In that
primary total of 450,247 votes We're
cast. This was divided, 270,01O for
Roosevelt and $50, 1927 for Taft, Civ
ing the colonel majority of S9,773.
Normally, there are 100000 repub
lican voters in this state In other
words, fully 100000 party followers
refused to go to the polls at all and
comm t themselves to either Taft or
Roosevelt. That is substantial ly 40
/ per cent. of the whole party vote, and
it constitutes the balance of power in
this contest.
In 1908 Bryan polled 44S,778, Taft
40, ~, the GepuulICdu Cduu tdcttt lCd -
ing by a plurality of 279,0OO In 1904
Parkers vote dropped to 5,43O, as
against S40,949 for Roosevelt, the lat
ters plurality reaching the amazing
total of $4,000. Thta was the hgh
tide of republican control of Pennsyl-
vania, and it was the Penrose or
ganization, then supporting Roose-
welt, that made it possible.
The Bryan total more nearly repre-
sents the democratic strength of the
state. In 1908 the sentiment of the
party was wholly with the Com
moner, though the state organization
headed by Guffey, was aga INST him. In
1904 the organization was heart and
soul with Parker, but the sentiment
was against him.

THIS TURK BELIEVES
HIS Side WILL WIN
Says Present Fighting Mere
" SkirmisheS

Atlanta, Oct. 29.-Usurf Thasos, an
educated Turk who has been in bust
ness in Atlanta for years, gives out
an interview in which he voices a view
of the Turco-Balkan war entirely diff
ferent from that which has been most
heard in the newspapers.
To begin with, he declares that the
fighting up to date has been only pre-
liminary, and that the main struggle
will come when the allies encounter
Inc main corps of the Turkish regular
army which is protecting the line from
Adrianople to Constantinople
Most Of the fighting north of Adrian
ople, Thasos says, has been with tribes
men and irregu ars. The allies have
yet to encounter the main line equip
ped with modern rifles, commanded in
many instances by German and Eng
lish officers.
Thasos points out that Turkey has
1,683,000 trained soldiers available,
and a million more men who can serve
as reserves. Servia has only 352,922,
Romania 287,OOO, Bulgaria, Greece and
Montenegro less than 100000 all to-
sc her.
Thasos expresses the further belief
that Americans would not be so
strongly partisan against the Turks if
they understood the true situation. 1t
has been clouded, he says, by the fact
that hte Turks are Mohammedan ma
ton and that the Balkan allies have
tried to cover their real purpose by
making it a holy war" of Christians
against Mohammedans.
Thasos says the great European
powers appreciate better the pc itical
significance of the struggle, and real
lie that it is the Turks and not the
Balkan all es who ar estruggling to
defend their hearths and homes and
national integrity.
Thasos confidently predicts that
while the Turks may receive sharp
set-backs early in the stage of the
struggle, they viii eventually come out
V glorious. His views are particularly
interesting at this time because they
are the first which have been publish
ed in this part of the United States
