Washington. January "a -RegarClng
the public demonstration in Constanti-

Pasha. the former War Minister and
commander of the Turkish army was
killed, the Turkish embassy to-day re-
ceived the following cablegram from the
Minister Of Foreign Affairs of Turkey
For some time past there has been
manifested a feeling of discomfort
among the people against the Cabinet
of KiamiI Pasha, who, foreseeIng
popular movement. thought 1t better
to take strong measures for REFRESHING
II. The debates in the Grand Council
and some rumors which were spread
afterwards caused this discomfort 20
turn into feeling of evaporation
In consequence a large crowd went yes
terday to the Sublime Porte in order
to manifest the feeling of the nation,
At the moment of entering the Sub
lime Porte an aide-de-camp of the ex-
Grand Vizier, prompted by an excess of
zeal or maybe by fear drew his revolver
and killed one of the crowd. which,
being up to that moment very peace
full. had to reply to this inspected
attack:
while this exchange of shots was
taking place, Nazim Pasha. hurriedly
coming out from the council to see
what was taking place, was struck By
sEot. which unfortunately. mortally
wounded him as well as a civilian who
remains unknown. on account OF these
facts. the Cabinet resigned. and His
Imperial Majesty. the Sultan. has

Views held in official circles with re-

as follows.
The Turkish government does not
desire a resumption of hostilities, but
the European powers are even less

owing to the danger of possible compli-
cations in Turkey. Turkey realizes
her condition of financial penury, but
this condition is chronic TO her. and

on the other hand. from military
standpoint. Turkey is in better con-
dition than ever to wage war With ad
vantage. especially as the government
believes the forces OF the allies are
near the point of exhaustion New
ertheless. the Porte would prefer to
avoid further bloodshed If this is hon
orably possible. and the Possession of
Adrianople by the allies Is not insisted
upon.
Official circles are confident that no
coercive pressure by the powers need
be apprehended. or threats of isolated
action by Russia taken very seriously,
owing to the possibility of such action

is felt here that the allies may come to
realize that Adrianople is not indispen-

The Spanish King insisted upon

He was particularly anxious TO find
out whether any III feeling remained in
America over the Spanish-A American
War. iCaptain Vicens assured him that
there was not the slightest luminosity.
On the contrary he found everywhere

After hearing Vicens's story King AL

Official Duties.

New York. January 2i.-To obtain
rest and diversion from the strain or
his official duties. President Elect VIII
son came to New York for the weekend
to-day. He went shopping with Mrs.
Wilson most of the afternoon, visiting
half a dozen stores without being gem
erally recognized. Tonight the GOV

theatre He had no political argu-
ments, he said
1t is very probable that the rresl-
dent-elect will visit the metropolis ev-
erv weekend before his Inaugural

the Governor had gone to Philadelphia
to visit a dentist. He left there for

his plans for the weekend In oetali
to the correspondents so as TO De ac-
oessible to them. he asked that informa.
ton as to his whereabouts be witnneio
from the public SO that he could De
free. from political burdens for awhile.
Although Governor and Mrs Wilson
escaped general recognition during
their shopping tour. an incident at the
very start indicated that their hopes
in this respect might not De realized.
The Governor had agreed to meet Mrs
Wilson on an upper floor or one OF the
big stores. and as he stepped out of the
elevator and walked TO the spot where
she was waiting. some one recognized

The Spanish government is now con
sidering a proposal which emanated
from the King himself. who has long

have been rejected by the government

Judiciary Committee Votes
Unanimously for Drastic
Measure.
Especial to The Times-Dispatch.)

Especial to The Times Dispatch.)
Raleigh, N C., January 24.-Judi-
ciary Committee No. ], voted unani-
mously TO report favorably the Justice
bill to declare Illegal mbinations in
restraint of trade. the drastic anti
trust bill introduced early in the
session. The bill applies the Sherman
antitrust act as State law; adds the
provisions OF the noted Reid bill of
the 1907 session, provides punishment
for agreements as well as conspiracy
in restraint of trade. and provides
machinery for the Attorney General
10 investigate and prosecute much as
the Federal act empowers the Attorney
General of the United States in this
respect. There seems TO be no opposi-
ton to the Justice bill. Indeed. many
who would ordinarily be considered to
oppose such legislation declare that
they are Indifferent because this issue
has distinctly passed into national
instead of State dimensions and the
State law can only be a sort of figure
head. It looks like easy sailing for the
bill through House and Senate.
After two days OF spirited debate
the Senate voted to-day TO limit
building and loan associations to
borrowing to the extent OF fifty in
stead of twenty-five per cent of paid
in assets as at present An amend
ment at the last minute by Senator
Jones to allow borrowing to the amount
of seventy-fve per cent of assets was
defeated The original bill was to
allow unlimited borrowing.
Duplicate bills were introduced in
the Senate and House for six months
minimum rural schools. through a
$3.50. 600 State appointment 20 assure
four months term and supplementary
scent State property tax. the pro-
ceeds of which can only go to salaries
of teachers for two additional months
of schools. Thorne. in the Senate. and
Masette. in the House. introduced these
bills for the joint committee and State
Department of Education.
The Justice resolution. declaring the
attitude OF the General Assem- bly, as
to freight rate Determinations. was
passed unanimously. Justice stated
that he had become convinced that II
was not necessary for him to make the
comprehensive speech in the freight
rate situation that he had intended to
make. as he had yet to hear of a sin
gle member OF the Legislature opposed
TO the passage Of the resolution. The
resolution carries 5000 appropria-
ton for the Governor 20 retain counsel
as does the Corporation Commission
to sue the railroads as to these dis
examinations. II goes TO the Senate
without engrossmert.
