Bull Moose Mcclure
With Big Gun Awaits
Man Out to Kill Him

c. w. Mcclure, Progressive national
committeeman from Georgia and &C
tive in the affairs or the Bull Moose
organization, is sitting in his Office at
Hunter and South Broad streets to-
day with shotgun across his knees
awaiting the arrival of the writer of
a letter who has threatened to kill
him en- sight.
According to the letter writer, who
indicts his missive on Japan bond pa
per in pencil. Mcclure may have until
just Tuesday to live if he persists in
his advocacy of Roosevelt In Georgia.
However, the writer says he will shoot
Mcclure on sight and prefers to do the
job before the day ends He says he
expects to see and settle with the ma =
tional committeeman before Saturdays
sun Is set, which shows you that it Is
no laughing matter.
The letter, which was mailed at the
Atlanta postoffice yesterday afternoon
at 1870 O'Clock and received by Mcclure
early last night, is as follows:
&C. w. Mcclure: Sir-I want to tell
you that If you keep on with the Moose
club you viii be killed and that before
Tuesday. 1 will kill you The first time /
see you, and know that Will be by Sat
urday. You may treat this matter light
ly, but l will get you yet So good bye.
"a. Halter"
Cheerful friends of Mr.. Mcclure are
confident that the letter is perfectly
genuine in its intention. Mcclure is
not so sure, but is taking no chances,
and toted a double barreled shotgun to
his office and kept it handy during the
day

American women walk as though their

Hatred for Turks
Makes Fighting Fierce.

Continued Bulgarian success is par
TALLY accounted for by the instructive
hatred Of the Bulgars for the Turks.
One war correspondent at the front,
Lieutenant Wegener says;
Every man Of the Bulgarian infan-
try literally thirsts to get at the Turks
with his knife or bayonet. and the Of
fcers are powerless against this burn
ing frenzy. All attempts to hold the
troops in leash are fruitless.
"The same feeling fills the breast OF
the newly formed reserves OF the third
line who go into battle In civilian
clothes with cartridge belts girded about
them and Mannlicher rifles in their
hands"

TURKS Show
Extreme Cowardice.

After the defeat at Luleburgas,
thousands of the Redifs acted with
such arrant cowardice that the Turk
ish officers fired into the ranks Of their
own men killing many.
Troop trains were standing at the
station in Luleburgas to carry the non
combatants out of the danger zone
but the Redifs drove the defenseless
men, women and children from the
coaches and took their places. Even
the pilots Of the engines and roofs OF
the ears were crowded with soldiers
n it had not been for the experienced
veterans the whole Turkish army would
have been annihilated.
Thousands of reservists are leaving
daily to Join Car Ferdinands army at
the front Most Of them are attired as
civilians, but are accoutred as SOL
diers.
News of the wanton killing of 200
Pulgarians at Bunahannissar by Turk
ish soldiers before evacuating the town
was received here today. The Buiga-
rians were locked up in the barracks
and the building set afre The cap
tiyes were burned alive. Turkish
troops are massacreing Bulgarian res
idents in the Struma valley, infiicting
terrible tortues upon the helpless.

Says Wilson Never
Tried to Control Trusts.

The colonel quoted from speeches by
Governor Wilson to show that the lat
Ter stood by state control rather than
national control OF monopolies. He
added that Governor Wilson never tried
to get through the Legislature of New
Jersey measures TO solve the problem
If monopolstic control.
Even after members Of the legisla-
ture at Trenton endeavored TO secure
the necessary Legislation" declared
Colonel Roosevelt Governor Wilson
declined to give the legislature a lead
and declined to lift finger in their
aid"
The colonel then propounded four
questions to Governor Wilson. These
were:
1. Is it not a fact that the laws Of
a state under which a corporation is
organized prescribe its power?
2. Are not all the powers of the
Standard Oil and similar monopolies
conferred by the laws of New Jersey ?
3. Could not these powers have been
curtailed by amendments?
4. Why has not Mr. Wilson recon-
,,1ended such amendments?

T. r. Raps Wilson
In Final Plea

NEW YORK, Nov 2.-ColoneI Tneo-
dore Roosevelt today fired his final big
gun at Governor Woodrow Wilson. He
bitterly assalled Governor Wilson's at
titude on the trust question, and ac-
cused the New Jersey candidate of
failing to act while he had the oppor-
tunity to amend the New Jersey trust
laws.
Swinging from his attack upon Gov
ernor Wilson, the colonel raped both
the Democrats and Republicans for
their tariff program and made a final
appeal to people Of all classes to sup
port the Progressive ticket at the polls
next Tuesday
The heaviest part Of the assault fell
upon Governor Wilson. After point
Ing that the governor had the New
Jersey legislature with him. the col
onel said:
"He Governor WILSON, has had am
pie opportunity and he himself has de-
clared it was his duty to proceed

rifle lighting, In which thousands fell
on both sides, the Bulgarian army
reached the last line of Turkish forts
defending Constantinople at ChatalJa
today.
Chatalja is only twelve miles from
Constantinople proper, and the forts
there are the main defensive works Of
the city. When they fall the Bulgar-
ians enter the city.
The Bulgarian battle line is eighteen
miles broad, being confined by the mar
rowness Of the peninsula through which
the troops moved. The Chatalja forts
are the strongest about Constantinople.
They were built in 1877 to keep back
the Russians.
It is believed that a grand assault
will be made upon the works after a
severe bombardment

Trained Soldiers
Alone Save Turks.

Two hundred thousand BuIgarians
and Turks engaged today in the life
and death struggle between Adrianople
and the Bosphorus, with CONSTANT
nople as the prize. Dispatches from
military headquarters state that the
Turks were driven back before the
steady advance of the Bulgarians, but
that fighting was continuous, for the
trained Turkish soldiers, who had been
employed to guard the rear, were bear
ing the brunt OF the Bulgars' onslaught
with courage, and stubbornly contest
ing every foot Of ground. In conse-
quence the Bulgarian advance was
slow.
Wounded soldiers taken to Stara Ia
CORA from the front tell graphic stories
of the battle south Of Adrianople. The
most Of the Redifs, they declared,
proved treacherous towards and fed
before the Bulgarian artillery fire,
without waiting for an attack by in
fantry or cavalry.
In their retreat southwark, the Turks
pillaged the country, leaving 1t a des-
dilute waste behind them. Villages were
burned, crops destroyed and property
looted. The populace is starving.

STADIUM. CAMBRIDGE, MASS,
Nov. Beneath a steel blue sky and
between billowing walls Of Crimson
and Orange and Black, Harvard and
Princeton FLASHED this afternoon in
their annual gridiron classic. Thirty
FIVE thousand football fans screamed
and waved flags and encouraged their
respective heroes as the rival elevens
went into action. Perfect football
weather prevailed. There was a ting
ling breeze which whipped the stream
ers and put the players on edge for the
struggle.
Harvard had been a slight favorite
in the betting. but the final wagering
saw many bets at even money. Har-
wards weight was offset by the feet
ness of the Tiger players.
This was the first time that the
Orange and Black had invaded Cam
bridge for sixteen years. and there was
a long string Of defeats in the past
which the Crimson sought to wipe out.
Both Teams in Condition.
Both teams were in perfect condi-
ton. Both had mastered the new reg
ulations Of the game and 1t was con
coded that the 1912 rules would get
their first real test
When the two teams trotted onto the
field at 2 o'clock the brass bands in

LOCAL OPTION DEBATE IN BAL
TIMORE.

Having discussed the legislative
record of one Democrat and one Re-
publican Senator the Anti-Saloon has
now challenged the entire opposition
to the local option bill in Baltimore
City to discuss the merits of the bill,
and has proposed, in order not t"
take any advantage of men not used
to debate, that the opponents may
get together and hire the best lawyer
they can find. The League serves
notice that unless this challenge is
accepted promptly it will periodically
single out men prominently identifi ct
with the opposition to the bill and
on them to make good or hire some
one to do it for them.
The propositions in brief are:
l.. That the proposed bill is fair
and reasonable.
2. That the ward feature is "a pro-
per unit.
3. That the people of Baltimore
want the bill.
4. That its passage will weaken
the power of the present corrupt city
liquor ring.
5. That the bill is actually state
wide.
6. That the counties have a lrgit-
innate interest in passing it for Balti-
morc's benefit.
1t is proposed that the discussion
be held in the Lyric, each side to pay
half of the expense and have tickets
for half the house.

evening, the Frederick Railroad team
from Frederick being matched against a
team of this place. Luck seemed to be
against the visitors. and at the end of the
first game the trolleyites were 95 poles
in the rear. Thurmont shut off the steam
to some extent in the second game, but
power at the substation was coming bad
and the rairoaders made little Roadway
being 66 points behind the locals. In
the third game, however, new boiler
was installed at the power house and the
visitors outdistanced the local 70 points.
