Rulers Assassinated
in Last Half Century

King George but none Of them very Sc
riously bothered the monarch. He de-
clared that he would not abdicate. They
could put him out on q pension. For
years he preferred the delights of Paris
and the baths of France to his own king
dom.
Constantine always acted as regent. He
administered with all the frmness that
an exceedingly Jealous kingdom would
permit. How jealous the Greeks may be
was shown in their attitude after the
Cretan flasco, when the present king was
accused Of involving his country unneces-
sarily.
There were just ~ bitter structures
after the previous war with Turkey In
Thessaly, where 1t was said that his con-
criticism was unjust has long since been
acknowledged. but at that time there
were loud demands that he resign the
succession.
Ambitions Have Been Large.
The change In public spirit has come
with the years during which Greece has
been reviying her military powers and
preparing for the contest In which she
has avenged herself against Turkey, her
ancient oppressor. A similarity OF names
and an ambition Of King Constantine
may have had something to do with 1t.

other Constantine who once ruled al
Constantinople. He also desired TO re-

St. Sophia, named after the wife of the

Another little chapter to the Maryland
senatorial fight developed today when
William Cabell Bruce, who is expected
to be a candidate for the short-term SEN

newspaper men-whether he had anything
worth talking about only the President
knows-but there was leak around the
White House to the effect that Mr. Bruce
suggested to the President that he keep
hands off as to the short-term fight be-
tween State Senator Blair Lee and him.

The President has never decided that he
has openly favored William l.. Marbury
for the long-term senatorship from that
state.
The only opposition Mr.. Marbury has is
from Senator Smith, who wants another
term. Mr. Bruce was one of the original
Wilson men in Maryland, and took just
as active a part in the fight for Wilson
before the convention as did Mr.. Mar
bury, who has fallen heir to the support
of the administration for the long term.
Mr.. Bruce does not wish White House
assistance, although knowing that the
President feels kindly to him, and he is
perfectly willing that he and Senator Lee
shall have the bout all by themselves
Mr. Bruce's wish will be granted, as the
President did not contemplate Interior

HEARING ON THE
 CURRENCY BILL
ENATORS RRlSTOW AND HITCH COCK INDICATE THEY WOULD
 GET AWAY FROM TT.
Sol Wexler, New Orleans Banker, De. clared it's Provisions Mean q
 Central Bank.

Washington. Sept. 6.-Questions propounded freely today during the hearing before the Senate Banking and Currency Comimttee by Senators Bristow and Hitchcock indicated the evident desire on their part to get away from the pending administration bill, if possible. They believe the Aldrich-Vreeland emergency law might be amended to fit the situation.
 Sol Wexler, the New Orleans bank CT; Professor o. H. Sprague, of liar yard University, and others, replying to the questions, admitted that an amendment to that law was feasible, but held that it inevitably led to a government owned bank and the gov ernment engaging in the general bank ing business. This, MT. Wexler said, had been abandoned long ago by ev- cry civilized nation in the world. It meant central bank, he said This the committee does not favor.
 During his statement this after noon, Mir. Wexler, said that if the banks go into the system proposed by the bill they would have to put up $1O5, ,0O0, ,00O of capital.
 "The capital" said MT. Wexler, would have to be derived by look ing over the various securities of the banks and selling bonds to raise the fund to create this capital"
 While Mir. Wexler did not say so, the inference was that unloading this amount of bonds would cause them to depreciate and create furry in the market.

SENATOR CLARKE
 MAKES HIS POINT Arkansas Senator Gets Flu ture Cotton Tax Amend
 ment Agreed to
WINDING UP TARIFF
Considerable Roadway Made By Sena- tOrs.-(lMrkp Bill Effective
 in 1914.

Washington. Sept. 6.--At 10:45 clock tonight the Tariff bill was finally concludede in committee of the whole and reported to the Senate. No amendments not approved by the financial committee were made. The last vote taken tonight was on Mr. PoindeXter's amendment for a Tariff Commission, which like that of Sena- for Cummns. was rejected by vote of 33 to 2l
 When the bill was reported out of committee by the vice president, Chairman Simmons asked for a re- print and announced that when the Senate met Monday morning at 10 o'clock he would ask 1t to remain in continuous session until the Tariff bill finally was passed.
 Senator Gallinger. Republican leader replied that he, too, hoped the bill would be disposed of on that day. This announcement was received with handclapping by the Democrats, i who were joined by the Democratic members of the House who were present to watch the last stages of the fight. The Senate then adourn- l ed.
 At o'clock the dutiable and free lists had been finally acted upon in the committee of the whole. From that time on the discussion was
 based upon various administrative
 features. All efforts to amend were futile and when the Senate finally did adjourn over Sunday, Chairman Simmons and his lieutenants were upheld on every point.
 Considerable headway was made on the bill at tonight's session. The Cummins amendment attacking the sale on exchanges of any commodity where the sellF does not own the article sold, was rejected by a vote of 8 to 16. MT. Cummins' proposi- tion to prohibit the railroads to charge more for the transportation of domestic products than on those | imported when considered through | was rejected by vote of B to "A. The income tax section as modi- fled with regard to the sure tax in causcus and the Clarke cotton futures amendment were agreed to without the roll call Finally HOke Smith spoke at length in general defense of the bill and in answer to Republican criticism. An amendment was agreed ] to postponing until September l. 1914, the time when the provision taxing all cotton futures shall take effect. Senator Poindexter followed Hoke Smith in set speech in advocacy of a Tariff Commission.

Militia Arriving.

No sooner had the news gone forth that local residents would care for those destitute as result of the great fire of yesterday, the many of the survivors came to the Business Mems League, where the last mass meeting had been held, and were giv- en immediate assistance. Tonight there will be many, however, who will have to remain out of doors. Some of them will do so because they prefer to stand guard over what little prop erty they have been able to save, as the militia ordered here by Gov. Hays to prevent footing and to maintain perfect order, will not arrive until midnight. One company will get in then to be followed by another com pany Sunday morning.
 The coming of the soldiers Will be welcomed by the people of Hot Springs for among those who have suffered by reason of the fire are many ne- groes and it is anticipated that, haV- ing nothing and no place to go, they would start trouble. Thus far no life has been lost in connection with the big cOnflagration.

fund.
 The biggest meeting for the relief of Hot Springs will be held Sunday in Little Rock. Local residents appre- ciate more than words can adequately express the sympathy and offer of as sistance that have come from Mayor Taylor and residents of that city. l There has been no change in the list of buildings destroyed or the amount of property lost, and no attempt will be made to revise the first statement in this respect until it is done official ly by the committee appointed for this 1 purpose.
 Tonight the mayor, executive com mittee of the Business Mems League and members of the city council met and tomorrow the first active steps among the fire sufferers will be taken. South Hot Springs, which was threatened by the fire, sent the com mittee word that those who had no place to sleep could come there, all doors being thrown open for the suf- ferers.
 Started In Negro Shack.
 The fire started in negro shack at Gulpha and Pleasant streets, while the negro woman was out, and spread with alarming rapidity along Gulpha and Pleasant streets and into Malvern avenue, and before the first alarm had been hardly sounded a whole block was in flames.
 The frame buildings in the imme- diate vicinity furnished fuel for the flames and they jumped from roof to roof so quickly that an eye could hardly follow them in their mad rush.
 The small negro eating houses. ho- tels and saloons in Malvern avenue, were a mass of flames within few minutes after the flames burst forth and when the firemen started to throw water on the flames the heat was so terrific that the water turned to steam.
 Firemen Fought Desperately
 Every engine, hose wagon and piece of fire-fighting apparatus in the city had been rushed to the scene and the firemen started to make fight to hold the flames in Malvern avenue. The burning brands from the roofs of the various houses car ried some of them hundreds of feet high in the air, floated out over the city and landing on other buildings started new fires.
 The result was that the nremei faced flames on each side. The cal for help was sent to Little Rock, tht flames having leaped across Malverl avenue. The citizens joined with thu fire fighters to stop the flames, bu still they spread with alarming rapid ity and soon four square blocks O houses were burning.
 At Market and Central avenue, tn Hot Springs department made
 stand to keep the fire out Of tn heart of the North Central avenue ' business district. They succeeded : but in the meantime the flames na U jumped Central avenue at Olive al

 The officials of this road were un- tiring in their efforts, spending 8 great deal of money and time in ad- vertising and boosting the organiza- tion of the packing plant, now being completed in this city, several of those officials attended and made speeches at the cornerstone laying of this plant I last month.

Barely had the ruins stopped smoul- dering today when men began to clear up the debris. The excitement that prevailed last night was subsided and plans for rebuilding the demolished sections of the city are being made. A demand for laborers to assist in clearing up the ruins has been sent broadcast.
 The light and power plant late to- day provided emergency facilities for the newspapers and other industries. The city will be in darkness about a month. About six thousand feet of hose belonging to the fire department was burned Many of the local de- partment horses were also rendered unfit for further duty.

Mayor J. w. McCleadon, of Hot Springs, yesterday sent an appeal to the outside world for assistance to aid the fire sufferers in that city. The appeal was sent out after a mass meeting held by the citizens of that place to ascertain if it would be necessary to call for financial aid and after Investigating the awful con- ditions that exist there, it was deemed necessary to make the call general. It is not known whether the appeal will be made throughout l the country or within the borders of the state, but it is most likely that Americans eerywhere will respond liberally, as has been the commenda- ble custom in past years when cities are stricken. The mass meeting at Hot Springs yesterday was attended by Governor George w. Hays and a number of other Arkansas state and municipal officials. Mayor Simon Bloom. received a telegram from Mayor McClendon late yesterday afternoon, which read: Your cooperation for fire suf- ferers here is earnestly solicited" Another message was received from Hot Springs by c. H. Triplett, asking for aid. It came from his son-in-law, Sam Williamson, Jr owner of the Great Northern Hotel which had a narrow escape from the flames. MT. Williamson said:
 Great suffering here. Any doAa- tions from Pine Bluff will be ap- preciated. See N. J. Can't, Jr., and Simon Bloom. Inform them that M A. Elsie is treasurer of the distri- button committee
 Two messages that were sent from Hot Springs to Mayor Bloom Friday night during the conflagration, but which were not delivered here until 1 yesterday afternoon, came from May or McClendon and Walter M. Ebel, editor of the Hot Springs Daily 1 News. They were in answer to xfes- sages from Mayor Bloom offering as- sistance. Mayor McClendon wired: | Thank you for your kind message Fire under control. Will wire you if we need anything" The call for aid reached Mayor Bloom later.
 Mir. Ebel's message to Mayor Bloom read: Thousand thanks for your offer, but fire is burning towards
 limits of the city and unless wind changes, remainder of the city is O K Personally, lost everything
