 NEW YORK. Nov. 17.-President Taft entered into Q joyous mood last evening at the Lotus Club banquet and laughed heartily when the mem bers sang the Swan song.
 Afterwards he delivered a most re- marlkabIs speech in which he dealt humorously with his own fate and with the men who had defeated him. With e broad smile lighting up his face he recommended that law be passed making a presidents term of office six years and forbidding more than one term. The diners laughed heartily with him.
 His remarks about the plans of Woodrow Wilson were slightly sar- castle. He insinuated that every man before entering the White House is fully determined to be the greatest reformer and the wisest statesmen the world has ever produced. Later the president said. he learns the working of the machinery of the United States government and finds that he E only one part of complicated whole.
 In dealing with William Jennings Bryan the president described him Al ''ths near president" several times.

 CONSTANTINOPLE Nov. Is. War fiercer and more bloody than ever, re- opened today when the Turkish gov ernment spurned the conditions offered by the enemy and when the Turkish commander in chief hurled hls Iesions once again at the invaders.
 The negotiations for the armistice failed as many expected they would and hostiiities fiared up again at once,
 Battle opened when the Bulsariana advanced to the assault of the Tchat- alpa fortifications. They succeeded in entering them at several points. but in the face of such a resistance that thousands of the attackers were left on the field. The Turks still under the command of Maxim Pasha are fighting with the desperation born of despair. Last night the battle wss still raging and the result could hard ly be foretold. At ten ?. m. this city was raised to a pinnacle of joy whe, a message from Maxim from the front declared that his army was fighting nobly and that several serious losses had already been inflicted on the ene- my. The message in part was as fol- lows:
 "The battle commenced in the morn ing and lasted until an hour after sum set. The enemy advanced on cur right wing and center. but was repulsed all along the line. Three Bulgarian bat teries were totally destroyed"
 Frightful havoc is said to have been caused by a Turkish ship which lay at anchor in sthe sea of Marmora and shelled the Bulgarians during the bat tie. This attack from the flank aided not a little in bringing about the re- pulses reported by Maxim.
 The ambassadors of the powers have ordered the landing of the marines from the foreign warships and the first foreign force Is expected to come ashore at midnight.
 Should the Turks continue to re- pulse the Bulgarians for a time the

Wood Alcohol Taboo.

If the number of deaths from the ef-
fects of drinking wood alcohol IS rathef
smaller just now than it has peen at
some other times, one may easily pc at

is due to persistent legislation against
promiscuous sales of wood aIeohol, or
is merely a hull between storms. Certain
il Is that the frequency with which wood
alcohol has figured in fatalities mas
awakened ksoeiety to the Importance OF
safeguardihg itself, so far as may pe
against this poison. Various laws, more
or less drastic have been placed on the
statute books of some states, with TINS

any event that much might be accom-
