Didn't Put All in Speech of
Acceptance
HE SAVES SOME TOPICS
For Campaign Ammunition - Discussed
Only the Heart of the Situation
Avoids Single Term Plank, Fears
1t Would Be Personal.

New York, Aug. 81 want to save
ammunition for the campaign" ex.
planned Governor Wilson yesterday when
speech of acceptance Wednesday to men
ton several planks in the Democratic
platform adopted at Baltimore, Il mere
~ took the heart of the platform" said
the governor, "and what seemed to me
to be the heart OF the situation through
out the country. | will discuss later in
dividual topics in particular localities
where they are most interesting to the
people"
As the governor rode over from Sea
Grit to New York yesterday to have his
portrait drawn, he informed the CORE.
spondents that he would discuss in detail
in future speeches many of the issues
not treated in Wednesdays speech. The
governor intimated that he would have a
good deal to say about the navy at a
future time, but did not wish to inter
ferc in the present "battleship tangle,'
as he phrased it, in the House.
The governors reason for ignoring the
single term plank of the Baltimore plat
form is known to close friends. It is
highly probable that the governor will
60 through the campaign without utter
ing single word on the subject. Though
aequiescing firmly with the platform and
all its planks, the governor, it is said,
does not feel that it would be dignifed
for him to discuss, the single-term plank
because of the possible personal applica-
ton of its meaning.
On the way from Sea iGrt, the govern.
or rode in day coach on the Jersey
Central to Atlantic Highlands, where he
took the regular steamer to New York
He was accompanied part way by Rep
resentatives William Hughes and Eugene
Kinkhead, both of New Jersey. They
occupied the captains cabin on the boat
and arrived in New York at noon. The
governor planned to spend most of the
day sitting for his portrait.

the national palace, where it was found
that the powder magazine had blown
up. few minutes afterwards the
palace itself which was built OF wood
and had been badly shattered by the
shock, caught fire and was destroyed
in less than hour.
During the fire great number of ex-
plosions followed one another by the
enormous quantity of munitions of war
which he'd been stored in the cellars be-
low the palace, and these prevented the
large force of firemen when had been

the explosion was such that it project

JOB HARTMAN
IS IMPLICATED
In the Mcnamara Plot. A Startling
Story, Credited to the Latter, Now
in Circulation in Los Angeles.

Los Angeles, Cal, Aug. 9.--The al
| legged connection between the men who
blew up the Times building in Los An
geles and Job Hartman, Socialist lead
er and labor attorney, overshadowed the
main issue involved when the bribery
| trial of Clarence S. barrow was re-
stunned yesterday.
Judge Hutton was ascked to rule to.
day on the admissability of the testi-
mony of Edward A. Cantrell, another
Socialist leader, which the prosecution
declared would serve the double our
pose of impeacheing Hartman and show
ing him as having had guilty knowledge
of the perpetrators of the Times exp!o-
sion.
Cantrell and Harrf1an broke up their
friendship some months ago.
The impeachment, which had been de-
MED by Hartman and which was ex-
pected to be answered in the affirma-
tive by Cantrell, contained in substance
the following allegations:
Louis Bispo, Ca: Cantrell,
the Times building has been dynami.
ted and something like 20 people killed. .
that Hartman had taken Cantrell to
his room in a hotel, locked the 1oor
and then burst into a fit of laughter.
Cantrell said what does it mean p
Hartman replied, it is alleged, 1T means
the boys are on the job" A few min
utes later, Hartman said: II have
known for some time that preparations
were being made to pull off the job"
and in the resulting conversation Iiar-
riman told Cantrell that he had been in
consultation with the plotters and had
begged them to postpone the matter
until after the state Socialist conven-
toin.
Cantrell at the time was Socialist
candidate for secretary of state and last
fall he ran for member of the boari
of education on the ticket which Har-
riman headed as candidate for mayor.
According to Hartman, Cantrell was
his ardent supporter and warm friend
until recent split among the Cali
fornia Socialists when he became a bit
ter enemy.
Judge Hutton to-day sustained the
objection of the defense to the question

impeach Hartman IN the bribery trial

ruled that the question relating to Hnr-

GRAVE CRISIS
IN TURKEY
Civil War, It Is Said, Cannot Be
Averted
YOUNG TURKS ASSEMBL ING
Abdul Hamid, the Report, Is to Be Re-
called--Martial Law in Adriano-
pie, Smyrna and
Salonica.

London, Aug. 9,--Near eastern af-
fairs are reaching grave crisis, accord
ing to reports from Constantinople, say
| ing that the committee of union and
! progress have resolved to summon the
dissolved Chamber of Deputies to reas-
semble at Adrianople, to which city the
leaders have already gone. The govern
ment has proclaimed martial law at Sa-
lonica, Adrianople and Smyrna. The
Daily Chronicles correspondent, who was
recently in Constantinople, considers
that civil war is inevitable and that it
is not unlikely that the committees
rival parliament will form a cabinet
and recall and proclaim the deposed Alb
dul Hamid as sultan. Added to the in
ternal troubles are difficulties with Mon
tenegro and Bulgaria.
A Vienna dispatch says that after the
kotsehana massacre the Turkish troops
proceeded to Sermenena, massacring the
people of two Bulgarian villages on the
way. The fighting at Sermenena lasted
five hours and the Bulgarians We're de-
feated. They fled, and the Turks then
butchered the aged men, women and chill
dren who We're left behind and set fire
to the town, many perishing in the
flames. This report has not yet been
confirmed.
Constantinople, Aug. "a state OF
siege has been proclaimed at Salonica.
1t is denied in official circles that the
negotiations of the peace mission with
the Albanian rebels have been broken
Off, and it is also declared that the Turk
ish minister at Cettinge has not been
authorized to quit his post. On the con-
trary the porte has ordered an inquiry
into the frontier fighting.
