London. April 29.-Up to a late
hour tonight the British foreign Of

tually taking separate action against
Montenegro. IL is understood Aus
tria Is waiting the result of the am
bassadorial conference Thursday and
employing the interval in an endeavor
to induce Italy to join her in military
action.
Meetings of the ambassadors in
London have shown almost conclu-
sNely that a majority of the powers
are not prepared to adopt warlike
measures against Montenegro. II is
thus practically certain that within
n few days. whether Italy consents or
not. Austria viii dispatch an ultima
tum to Cettinje demanding the i'm
mediate evacuation OF scntari.
Not another word of Essad Pasha's
doings In Albania has come through.
Ismael Kimial Bey. head OF the pro-
visional Albanian government, has ar
rived In London To enlist British sup
port He and other Albanians don't
regard Essad Pasha's coup very seri-
ously. but the opinion seems TO be
growing among diplomats here that
an administration under Essad Pasha
I'm Albania might not be such an i'm
possible solution of a difficult prob
lem.
It 10 considered that Essad Pasha Is
an influential Albanian with a strong
following and with the prestige of gal
liant defense OF Scutari, might be
more acceptable to Aibanians than a
foreign prince and that II allowed 10
retain his self chosen post. he might
be inclined TO make territorial con-
cessions which would compensate
Montenegro for the loss of Scutari
and satisfy European claims.
Vienna dispatch TO The Daily
Telegraph says the Austrian minister
at Cettinje visited King Nicholas Mon
day and demanded the immediate and
unconditional evacuation OK scutari
The king replied that he would
never surrender the town.
The Austrian government, accord.
ing to the same dispatch. is now en-
gagged IN drafting n r.anifesto to the
powers explaining It's policy and aims
with regard to Balkan affairs.
A special correspondent telegraph.
ing from Vienna puts the Austrian at.
titude in regard to Montenegro in
precise form as follows:
Austria Hungary, finding that the
ambassadorial conference in London
yesterday produced no results, has de-
cided 20 take matters into her own
hands and to carry out the decision
OF the powers regarding scutari."

WILSON STUDYING ALIEN LAW
President I'm Constant Communication
with Bryan.

Washington. April 29.--Practically
ali OF today was devoted by President
Wilson 10 consideration OF the situ-
alton arising from California's pro-
tected anti-alien land law. The Presi
dent was In frequent telegraphic COM
munication with Secretary Bryan at
sacramento and laio the entire sub
ject before the Cabinet at a two
hour meeting. He also conferred at
different times during the day with
John BasSstt Moore. acting Secretary
OF state. who in turn was visited by
Viscount Chlnda. the Japanese am
bassador.
No telegrams from or to Secretary
Bryan were made public at the White
House. Mr.. Moore declined to dis
cuss the negotiations and reticence
was maintained at the White House.
That the President was somewhat
worried about the outcome OF the situ-
alton was the only impression gained
from those who had talked with him
about the question today. AZ far az
could be learned today. the attitude
of the National Government stir is
one OF hope that " an anti-alien bill
In passed at all II will bo along the
lines OF laws existing In New York.

innocent women and children, the

and the events of his funeral and

ORDERS TO PREPARE MORE
FIRE ESCAPES FOR CON
NICTS AT STATE FARM.

Little Rock, July 25.-After the
burning of convict camp in Missis-
sippi in which a number of negro con-
avicts lost their lives, the members of
the Arkansas Board of Penitentiary
Commissioners made an inspection
tour of the camps on the state farm
to make sure there was no liability of
such loss of life at the Arkansas
prison. Orders We're given for the
cutting of additional doors in the
stockades, in order to insure a place
of escape for the convicts, no matter
in what part of the building a fire
might start.
The convicts at the farm are housed
in frame buildings, with bunk-line
cell house on the interior. There has
been but one entrance to this, but now
doors are to be cut in the sides and
ends. The cell house is constructed
of 2x4 timbers, set edgeways, with an
aisle all about for the guards to patrol

He falls asleep and dreams he is play

actors leave the theater he slips back
to the stage and plays Richeheu
grandeloquently and to his hearts
content. His ambition is realized; but
he silks back-dead. And thus the

that the appointment has been made
public, many believe that Mr.. Martin
was slated for the position several
months ago, when the late Jas. H.
Harrod's appointment was expected
daily, inasmuch as it was known that
he was President Wilson's choice for
the position.
Mr.. Harrod stated in the presence
of several gentlemen Sunday before
his death that he could not account
for the delay unless it was because
his Arkansas friends in Washington
were holding the matter up. Messrs.
Gray of Little Rock, Campbell of
Newport and CAN'T of Pine Bluff
were each strongly endorsed for the
position, and it was generally believ-
ed since the death of Mr.. Harrod,
that one of the gentlemen named
would receive the appointment. The
selection of Mr.. Martin, who is a clos
personal friend of Senator Jas. P.
Clarke, was no mistake, however, as
he is one of the strongest lawyers in
Arkansas and will doubtless prove a
successful and most vigorous prose
cutor.
