PEACE OF EUROPE IS
HANGING By Thread
OUTBREAK AMONG THE POWERS
MAY COME ANY
TIME.

LONDON, Nov. 25.-The extrnlo
anxiety manifested by all the Euro.
pean governments to deny reports OF
war-llke preparations and to repre-
sent the situation as peaceful and sat
isfactory, in itself indicates on how
slender a thread the Issues of peace
and war in Europe now hang.
The danger arises not alone from
the conflicting interests of Austria,
Servia and the other powers, bnt
from the possibility that Turkey. fol-
lowing the traditional policy of profit
ing by the embodiment Of the grea :
powers, may adopt an irreconcilabla
attitude in the neace negotiations.
Beyond the fact that the plenipot-
entarles met todhy. nothing is
known yet whether an armistice has
been arranged There appears to a
discrimination of operations at tho
Thatalja lines, rather than by formal
agreement.

terested in the case and anxious
friends of the accused remained about
the court house until late hour but
their hopes for a reception of a Ver-
diet were unrewarded. Scores OF ru-
mors as to the nature of the finding
were circulated. These embraced
every possible form.
The case vas given to the jury after
Judge Quinn had delivered lengthy
charge in which he'gave the instruc-
tion that neither Ettor nor Glovan-
nittl could be found guilty of murder
in the first degree.
The evidence relating to these two
defendants" said the court, does not
warrant conviction for murder In the
first degree, because 1t is not contend
ed that either of them premeditated
the death Of any one"
For Caruso, however, the instruc-
ticns did not preclude the electric
chair. Should the jury find him
guilty of participation in the fatal
riot, the court charged, 1t might find
him guilty Of murder in the first or
second degree. A hopeful instruction
for this prisoner. however, was that
the Jury in order to adjudge him
guilty of first degree murder must be
satisfied that he or his confederates
acting with him, premeditated taking
a human life.
The instructions also eliminated the
possibility of verdict Of manslaugh-
ter against any Of the defendants. The
very nature of the indictments pre-
Guided such Il verdict. the court as
serted. Ettor and Giovannitti must
b. found guilty of murder in the sec
ond degree or acquitted.
Hundreds Of friends and sympathiz-
srs of the defendants We're in Salem
today, walking the streets near the
court house until long after dark. One
man, who refused to move from the
court house entrance when ordered
away by the police, was locked up on
the charge of obstructing the side
walk. His arrest did not appear to
anger the crowd, and there was no
demonstration when the man was taxi
en- away. Throughout the day and
night, however, the streets near the
court house were patrolled and re-
serve force was held on duty.
Squads Of mill workers walked back
and forth In front of the court house
for hours, watching the windows OF
an upper room where the jurors were
deliberating Frequently members of
tn, jury could be seen near the WIN
de- 5. Shortly before o'clock the
Jurors were marched under guard of
six deputies to their hotel. 1t was
said then that they were only going
to their supper, but the report spread
later that an agreement had been
reached.
The prisoners were taken from the
court house to the Jail as soon as the
jury retired. Gioyannitti. just before
he left, was handed a cablegram from

cheer and a mothers blessing. When
