Mrs. .Aldrich, Head of Chica- go Law & Order League, Cites Jack Johnson's
 Case As Evidence
Intermingling of Black and White Results in the De

Chicago, Oct 24@tsThe black man who becomes wealthy or influential is now doing what he can to reta1ate against the white race for the wrongs done his womank1nd under slavery
 This statement was made, today, by Mrs. Alice Phillips Aldrich, head of the Chicago Law & Order League, who has been interested in the ln- vestigation of the case of Jack John son, the negro pugilist who is charged with abduoting pretty Lucille Gamer on the Minneapolis white girl.
 Mrs AldriCh insisted that the free interrningIing of the black and white races could result only in the de- gradation of both races and that 1t will never result in the elevation Of s.Tfie problem of ter-rnarriage and nter-rafnglfng of the black and white Lrs person a,sr,sh is Sssioqs fsd one for sweethtarts is growing in every large city north of the Qhfo- A colony Of uneIges undep police @ protection @ Tn Chicago and several other large cities.

EVERETT WILL MAKE RAILROAD
 PROVE CHARGE
Former Section Foreman Hotly Denies Accusation Brought by fingered Rail road Officials.

George B. Everett of South Nor walk, who has played such a pronni- nent part in the inquiry that Coroner
 John gJ. sPhelan is conducting in the w Westport wreck, was seen by a. Far mer reporter today and declared th,at it was his intention to make the rail- road officials prove such allegations. as they have made against him. Ever cit just learned last night that an at te1npt had been made to introduce rec ords at the hearing; Monday which, 1t is alleged, would show that Everett was guilty of padding his payrolls and other irregularities in connection with his work as section foreman. Vice President E. e. BI1ckFand of the rail- road, offered to introduce such rec orcs and to sllbstantiate such a11sga- clined to allow such matter to go into the records, stating that he was con | cerned chiefly in the matter of ind l ing out the cause of the wreck and not the character, habits or wrong doings of any one who appears before l him to testify. -s
 1 Everett read about these allegations last night in a Norwalk paper and he became Indignant. 1 When seen in Saugatuck today he emphatieafly stated that he would l have satfs6artion for such islander and
 that he would make the railroad com pany prove it's ahegations. He was
 asked to explain how stories of ir- was: szstories of that kind were started the last year or so that I was i foreman by an ignorant element that worked for me At that time [ had money and was paying taxes on $80,- | 900 worth Of property. was also Lat one time postmaster. ofk Darien.

TURKS LOSE IN
 BIG BATTLE
tcontinusd from Page one1


 Vienna. Oct. 24.-The fiercest fight ing of the campaign marked the re- sumption, today, of the Turko-Bul- garian struggle before Kirk Kilissa, here from the front: This was the third day of the battle and the in crease in the fury of the Bulgarian were attributed to the developments of flanlzing movement by Czar. Ferdinand's forces, evidently design rear and to the reported reinforce ment of the Turks by the arrival of strong bodies of troops, withdrawn from the districts where the Servians and Greeks are operating, to oppose the more formidable Bulgarian ad- vance.
 Ferdinand's attempt to attack the Turkish flank and strike at Kirk Kilissa from the rear was being un- dertaken by the Bulgarian army re- ported earlier as marching southward as operating in the vicinity of Tirnovo and Visa. If successful, it will not only catch the Turks between two fires but will threaten their line of communications with Constantinople and place the Kirk Kilissa and Adrianople defenders in a desperate situation.
 It was to the summoning of every available Turk to resist the Bu1gar- ians that military experts, today, be- Iieved the weakness of the Turkish 
 forces was due.
 The belief grew among the best au- thorities, today. that Kirk Kilissa will prove to be a historical battle and that upon it's result the outcome of the present Balkan campaign will de- pend.
 So certain were the best authorities that the battle of Kirk Kilissa will decide the Balkan struggle that it was reliably reported, today, that the French foreign office has already be- framing peace DrOD0Sa1S for b. mission by the powers to the warning states
 TURKS CLAIM VICTORY. Constantinople, Oct. 24-The Turks I have routed the main Servian army | in Albania, it was officially announc- 1 Servians, says the official statem ent, numbered about 100000. The vicinity 1 of the town of Kunanovo, which the 1 Servians had previously claimed to have captured, was the scene of the l engagement. The fight was a bloody one, it was added. and after scatter ! fleeing enemy. The report it must be noted, comes from an official source which, instead of constituting g 8 guarantee of it's accuracy, casts a certain amount of suspicion upon it. It was implicitly accepted as true by the Turkish people, however, and l them. They interpreted it as marking the turning point of the campaign and initiating an uninterrupted series | of Turkish successes.
 we shall not be satisfied with merely driving the enemy from Tur- key, said Edhem Bey, chief of the foreign office, following issuance of l the latest official announcement. We | intend to go further. The Balkans | must be pacified, first by the sword 1 and afterward administratively.'

Common Insects Distributors
of lnfantiIe Paralysis, Ex-
periments Prove.

WASHINGTON. Nov. Ordinary
stable flies have been conclusively iden-
tilted as carriers Of infantile paralysis,
or poliomyelitis, according to a report
made to the public health service by
DR.. John f. Anderson, director of the
hygienic laboratory, and Passed As
sistant Surgeon Wade H. Frost.
The report gives the result Of expert
ments with three monkeys, which after
being exposed to the bites of flies which
at the same time were allowed daily to
bite two monkeys inoculated with virus
of the disease developed typical symp-
toms of poliomyelitis seven. eight and
nine days, respectively, from the date Of
their first exposure. In each case the
diagnosis was confirmed by an autopsy.
Further experiments will be neces
sary to determine whether this is the
only or usual method of transmission
of the malady.
