vassed the wisdom of advising the sultan to address himself directly to the Balkan allies for peace terms, as the allies insist he must do before they will officially notice his admis- sion of Turkeys defeat The alterna. tive is joint action by the powers and then overcome the allies objections to outside interference by a resort to force. From the latter method the chancellories shrink.
 Russia, at the very outset, it was agreed by those who have taken part in the discussion here, has taken the allies side. Probably this would mean that the other powers would have to discipline the allies and Russia, too This is the sort of complication Euro. pean statesmen have feared all along, and are still desperately anxious to avoid.

Turkish Army Retreats,

London, Nov. 5.-The Turkish army is in full retreat on Constantinople and the Turkish government has asked the powers to intervene.
 An official bulletin was issued by the government at Constantinope ad hitting defeat at the hands of the Bulgarians in the great battle on the Thracean plains.
 The fight south of Lule Burgas was of the most murderous character. The Turks offered a splendid resistance but were finally overwhelmed by the Bulgarian artillery fire. This was ter rife, and compelled the Turks to withdraw to the last lines at Tent alja.
 Reports place the Turkish loss at more than 10000 killed or wounded

WILSON'S INJURY SLIGHT
GOVERNOR, HURT IN AUTO
 CRASH, FEELING FINE.
Scalp Wound Is Cemented Together and Reinforced With Absorbent
 Cotton by New Method.

Princeton, N. J., Nov. 5.-Gov. Woodrow Wilson, who was cut on the head when he was thrown against the top of limousine in which he was making the trip from Red Bank to this city, awoke after good nights rest and said he was feeling fine.
 A gash four inches long was cut on the top of his head, but physicians who dressed the wound declared it was not danger
 The physicians used the newest surgical method of drawing the wound together. Instead of taking stitches in the governors scalp, they first cleansed the wound thoroughly and then, after drawing the edges togeth. CT, cemented them with collodion, re- inforced by a firm bandage of ab- sorbent cotton.
 The accident occurred just as Gov. Wilson was passing through the square in the center of Hightown. h the square is fountain. Leading across the square and around the fountain is a crossing
 This crossing had been lately laid, leaving a high ridge across the street. In. the darkness Gov Wilson's chauf. feur did not see it.

POSSIBLE DEADLOCK BROKEN
Death of Congressman Utter Puts Rhode Island in Democratic Col
 umn in House of Representatives.

Westerly, R. l., Nov. 5.-Congress- man George Herbert Utter, former governor of Rhode Island, died at his home here after several weeks illness with stomach trouble.
 His death breaks the deadlock that would have existed in the House of Representatives in the event of the presidential election being thrown into that body.
 Congressman Utter was a Re pub lican, the only other representative from this state being George Francis O'Shaunessy, Democrat. Rhode Islands vote, should it fall to the house to name the president, will be Democratic, thus making the votes by states as follows: Democratic, 23; Re- publican, 22.
 The situation heretofore has been even with 23, with four states dead locked congressionally-Rh Island, Maine, Nebraska and New Mexico.

Will Deal Direct With Turkey.

Paris, Nov 5.-Fears that the Bal kan allies would reject mediation by the powers between the allies and Turkey were verified here. From Sofia, Belgrade. Cettinje and Athens came messages, not in official form, but on official authority. to the effect that the allied states will discuss peace only with the sultan.
 For this reason, it was pointed out, the porte's appeal to the powers em- bassies in Constantinople, and to the foreign offices at the various capitals, will not delay the war for a moment If Turkey addresses itself directly to the allies they will listen, not other wise.

Sunshine thought this was a good
plan, and let her sister help herself to
then next morning they ate from Sun
shines pail also, and when night came
they were still without a place to sleep
ana Sunshine's pail was empty.
Clouds sat. down to eat her supper.
but she did not offer her sister anything
TO eat, and when Sunshine asked her
Tor something, she replied: "If you
share do not think I am silly also,
shall keep this for myself"
sunshine cried herself to sleep that
night more because of her sisters un-
Kindness than because she was hungry,
and the next morning when she awoke
she found herself alone. Clouds had
gone away before she was awake.
Poor Sunshine walked all day and
asked at each Ioor for work, but none
could she find, and she was afraid to
sleep under tree alone, so she crawled
between two rocks and pulled the bushes
over her to hide herself from the ami
mails that lived in the wood.
When she awoke the moon was shin
Ing, and she heard voices, and looking
out from her hiding place, she saw some
the ground. They were the little brown
men, and they were talking OF the King
who lived in big castle not far away.
IT could tell him what would restore
what good would It do for me to go to
the castle, am so small that they
would not see me, and II they did do
not know what would happen. No, am
not going to take any such risk. but ]
will tell you what would cure her"
What Is it?' asked one.
"If the princess would get up early in
the morning and go into the woods
while the dew is still on the bushes and
get a cupful of the dew and then find
the we'll of fire that is on the top of the
mountain and set the dew to boil over
1t, and when It is cool drink it, that
would cure her."
Sunshine listened, and when the little
brown men went away she remembered
what she had heard, and the next
ed for the castle, where the blind prtn-
cess lived.

That l cannot tell to you," replied
Sunshine, but you must let me see him
or the little princess will always be
When the servant heard that he let
Sunshine in. for everyone loved the little
Princess.
When Sunshine told the King the cure
she had learned from the little brown
men he did not have much faith, but he
wished to try everything, and so one
morning the little Princess set out with
Sunshine and gathered the dew in a
cup.
All day they walked, for 1t was a long
way to the top of the mountain, and
just as the sun was going down they
came to the well of fire.
There was grating over the top, and
on this the little blind Princess guided
by Sunshine placed the cup, and as soon
as the dew boiled Sunshine took 1t OF
to cool.
Drink It now" she said when it was
The little Princess drank, and in
few minutes she said II see beautiful
bright light; what Is it?''
That is the sun setting" said Sun
shine. You can see now, and the world
will always look bright to you, for you
will no longer be blind
Sunshine took the little Princess back
ing, and when he knew that his daugh-
ter's sight had been restored he held a
feast and told everyone how Sunshine
had cured the Princess. and that in re-
turn for this he intended to make her
his daughter also
In the midst of the feast a servant
came to the King and said that a girl
had been found by the side of the castle
wall faint from the want of food, and
when they brought her in Sunshine saw
II was her sister Clouds. =
But she did not tell the King how
selfish Clouds had been to her, she only
said, she is my sister; we were lost in

When Clouds found how kind and un-
selfish her sister was she became
ashamed of herself and determined to
be like her, so for the sake Of Sunshine

they lived at the castle with the little
Princess and grew up to be good and

AT WORK In CHICAGO
Foes in Senate Determined Not
To Allow Case To
Go Over.

managing to transact considerable busi-
ness at his Chicago office are the topics
of gossip about the Senate end of the
Capitol in connection with the Lorimer
case.
1t was expected that Senator Lea
would ask yesterday that a day for
voting be fixed but the matter was
allowed to go over.
The anti-Lorimer Senator'S are de-
termined not to allow themselves to be
maneuvered into position where they
will eventually be forced to put the
