MONTENEGRINS REPULSED
IN FIRST BALKAN BATTLE
Porte Views Engagement as
Practical Beginning Of
Hostilities.

Constantinople, Oct. 5.-An engage
ment has occurred at Berana. near the
Montenegrin frontier between the
Turks and the Montenegrins. The
Montenegrins were repulsed. according
to advices received here. The Turkish
government, 1t is understood, views
this affray as practically the begin
ming OF hostilities.
Assim Bey, ex-Ministcr OF Foreign
Affairs, has gone to Rumania TO seek
the support of that state against the
Balkan allies.
The following circular note has
been addressed 20 the powers:
. AS the Ottoman government antici-
lated. the verbal representations made
by the powers to the Balkan states az
though vigorous. did not have tne de-
sired effect There Is even reason TO be.
lieve that II certain states were inclined
10 conform to the recommendations OF
the powers the fear OF appearing 10 nave
violated the agreement reached among
them has prevented them from ioio"-
ing their inclinationS.
On the other hand, the popular excite
ment which appears 20 be carrying away
these countries can In our opinion onIy
be subdued by threatening action on the
part of the powers. This agitation
naturally had reaction on the Ottoman
Empire. the Inhabitants and army OF
which were already exasperateo by tne
criminal and bloody vaccinations wh,rn sc
have been proceeding for years past en-
couraged by neighboring states.
The Ottoman people a,s, thsrsfors csa,IsnSs Ss1ns
throyn down to Il, Is prepared to repel
any attack on the security and dignity OF
the empire.
The situation Is therefore extremely
grave. and II the powers take too long
to agree upon the forctbie measures
which the circumstances dictate HOSTILE
ties may be precipitated before interven-
ton can be effected.

urge the necessity Of meeting II without
a moments delay. II is only because VIC
desire TO adhere to the pacific attitude OF
which we have given proof on several oc-
casions that we consider It our duty 70

we are that whatever happens no respon-
ribility whateoever can accrue to the Ot-
tornan government.

Slayer Uses Police Weapon.

According 10 the police, the revolver
with which the shooting was done was
formerly owned by q member of the
Police Department. This was proved
1t is said, by the make of the weapon,
the caiibre. and the fact that it bore
serial number of the maker which
definitely identified II as department
arm. Just who the man In the depart
ment is who owned the revolver or
whether he Is now a member Of the
force, could not be learned at a la:s
hour last night.
Following the announcement regard
ing the revolver, the rumor spread
about Headquarters that Zelig's death
was the direct outcome OF the Rosen-
thai murder. 1t was pointed out, fur
ther, that big Jack" was one of the
men upon whom District Attorney
Whitman relied to give evidence OF a
most damaging character against Lieu
tenant Becker, now in the Tombs
awaiting trial for the murder Of Ro-
senthal
This rumor grew into fact when-Mr.
Whitman himself, who had hurried
down to Headquarters at the first re-
ports Of Zelig's death, announced to the
Newspaper men that Bald Jack" Rose.
one Of the gamblers who will testify
against Becker, had made a startling
prophecy regarding Zelig's danger from
gangs
Mr.. Whitman said he had been talk
ing with Rose at the West Side iail
last evening. when the report OF Zeligs
death was borne to him. The District
Attorney had been discussing Roses
evidence against Lieutenant Becker,
and Rose remarked:
"'Big Jack will be the next man to
get his There are a number Of
gangmen down on the East Side who
are looking for his scalp. and he will
never testify against Becker"
News Of Murder Follows Prophecy.
Within q few minutes after he had
made this statement message an
nouncing the death Of Big jack ar
rived. Rose nodded his head in
knowing way and shrugged his shoul-
ders.
Mr.. whitman appeared intensely in
terested In last nights developments
of the Rosenthal case. He said Zelis
was to have been one Of his strongest
witnesses against Detectives White and
Steiner In the Rosenthal trial. but now
that the gang leader had been done
away with. his case would be ma
terially weakened.
While Mr.. whitman was still closeted
with the prisoner and the witnesses

London. Oct. 5.-The war peril is If
ANYTHING worse to-day. The persistent
,ock Of news all day from the Balkans
IS significant and the carefully worded
reference to the crisis made by Pre-
mier Asquith in addressing his constit-
usnts this afternoon shows that Europe
Is possibly within hairs breadth OF
general conflagration.
The speeches from the throne at the
opening Of the extraordinary sessions
of the servian and Bulgarian parlia-
ments show there has been no cessa-
tion In the preparations for war.
The Servian army, II is expected, VIII
be fully mobilized to-day, while those
of Bulgaria. Greece and Montenegro
will reach a similar state of readiness
within day 'r two.
Turkey by means of strict cen
sorship has kept her preparations
quite secret
The powers have induced the Balkan
states not 10 recall their ministers from
Constantinople for the present, which
IS regarded as one point in favor of
peace.

responsible for some Of the most horri-
bic outrages during the Macedonian
atrocities, when thousands were muir

have committed more than three hun

The European steam roller is moving

OF definite agreement among the pow
ers with regard to joint action. Mr..
AsQuith says the powers are working

The habeas corpus proceeding. with
It's dramatic ending. was one OF the
most unusual that has come before the
Supreme Court In many years. Mrs.
Berkowitz left her husband and went
to live with the family Of Greiner. Her
husband is suing her for divorce,
naming Greiner as correspondent. Grein-

Mrs. Berkowitz obtained the writ OF

Greiner at st. Marks Hospital, where
he called to see his mother, who is a
