PLAN TO
CURB TALK OF WAR
Threats to Resume Balkan Hos
tiIities Arouses Ambas-
sailors to Action.

LONDON. Jan. 15.-Today's meeting
OF the ambassadors of the powers was
devoted chiefly to a discussion of the
gneans of putting a brake on the
threatened resumption of the war in
the Balkans. Breathing time was
given for efforts in this direction by
the decision of the Balkan pienipo-
tsntiarles today TO delay further ac-
tion until the Turkish government
has had full opportunity for the dis
cussicn Of the ambassadors note
which will be presented this week.
It is quite evident that both sides
would welcome the discovery of an
acceptable way to avoid further hght-
ing. The Turkish delegates argue that
but for the fact that the European
powers have shown bias in favor Of
the claims put forward by the allies
they would have been able to compro-
mise with their adversaries long ago.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 15.--The fate
of General cipriano castro's attempt
to enter the United States is now
largely IN the hands OF Secretary
Negel, who today received report
from the special board of inquiry at

the admissib.lity of Castro, but sub
mitted the record for Secretary
Nagers perusal before determining
whether Castro should be deported or
admitted.
The board must make the decision,
and If it authorized Castro's admis-
sion Il would be beyond the power of
Secretary Nagel to. consider the case,
unless some member of the board Of
inquiry should appeal to him.

court in Part L. QUARTER Sessions. to-
day, Judge william P. Martin presid-
ing. Vito Mecca, of AZ Garside street,

cinct, during a riot at Seventh and
Clifton avenues on May 10 last.
Owens and several other officers
were sent from the Second precinct
to put a stop to meeting in
Branch Brook Park. The striking la
borers left the park, but outside be-
came ugly and refused to dispense.
Several arrests were made when, ac-
cording to Owens's story Mecca sud-
denly leaped from the sidewalk to the
roadway and stabbed. him in. the right
leg. Owens placed Mecca under ar

defense will be that he did not do
the stabbing and that Owens grabbed

Left Newark for Grand Jury
Room, Then the operat-
ing Table.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1o.--lt is ex-
oected that the Indictment of PATROL
nan Eugene Fox, found by the ex-

was operated on for the removal of a
tumor from his stomach. He is al
his home, Sc West 130th street, and
is expected to recover. He is in
fair condition despite his rough han
ding when he reached New York
from Newark.
District Attorney William A. Whit
man expects to drag into his net one
police inspector and captain, three
inspectors and a high man in Tam
many Hall. This is all on the evil
dence which Sipp has given and in
tends to give.
The last thing Sipp said before
going on the operating table was that
he intended to carry out his agree
ment with District Attorney Whit
man. who had played square" with
him, and, tell all he knew regardless
of consequences.
Sipp at the same time repeated
story he told to the grand jury to
the effect that lie understood large
sum had been raised to keep him out
of the State. and that he had ae-
cepted 800 OF the money while In
Newark. The reports of the amount
vary from $1,000 to 5000. Edward
j. Newell, Sipp's lawyer, and the law
yers for Fox deny the story. Sipp
said Newell knew about the transac-
ton. which Newell fatty denies.

Helps Lumber Trade.

Hot Springs.-A revival of activity
in the lumber business throughout the
Black Hills which will be helpful to
all lines of trade and business is soon
to result through the action of con
gress in removing the embargo that
has existed on the governments tim
Der reserves IN the Black Hills. Here
tofore this timber could not be ship
ped from the state and there has been
no great demand for lumber of this
grade at home. The passage of this act,
which is Immediately affective, allows
q, 0 900 feet of green mature timber
to be shipped annually. The opportu-
mites are attracting capital. One con
Germ, which has an idle mile at Rapid
City. is investing an additional half
million dollars, and other sawmills are
preparing for a busy season. The gov
eminent will receive additional reve-
nues from the sale of mature green
timber without in any way injuring
the reserves, while the advantage to
local business interests OF the Black
Hills cannot be measured, as 1t estab-
fishes an additional all-year-round in
dustry for the Black Hills.

Beat Experts at Finance.
Mr.. Morgan was born at Hartford.
Conn, April IL. 1887. His early
schooling opportunities were the best.
He graduated from the Boston high
school and was a student in the Uni
vers'ty Of Gottingen. Germany. His
father vas a financier of prominence
and II vas not difficult for young Nor
gan to get a start in the business
world. His first experience was in the
London house of Morgan & Peabody.
Going to New York at the age OF
%. he fought both Gould and Fisk for
the possession OF the Albany & Sus-
quehanna railroad and beat those old
Napoleons Of finance at their own
game. In 1871 he became a member
OF the banking firm of Drexel. Morgan
& Co., which later became ]. P. Nor
gan & Co., tho largest private finan-
ciai institution in the world.
The history 81 the Morgan banking
house reads almrst like a fairy tale. so
wonderful have been its achievements.
In 1871 Mr.. Morgan created a market
In Europe for SIS. 0So. 900 Of New York
Central stock and sold It there at a
profit which amazed old Commodore
Vanderbilt. In 1877 he handled an
issue of $3.50. 900. 200 OF government
bonds in preparation for putting the
national currency on a gold basis.
In 1880 he provided $40. 900 900 for

Mt the expiration of its franchise, May

pany would first put up a fight before
being forced to vacate. The announce

pany had taken the initiative in the
fight that is to come when it secured
an injunction in federal court restrain
Ing the city from removing the wires
and poles Of the company. The in

charity, but nothing perturbed him
more than to have it mentioned to him.
He was a devout Christian and vestry-
man of st. Georges Episcopal church,
where he could be seen every Sunday
morning when at home, passing the
silver salver for the collection.
He took an active interest in the
Metropolitan Museum of Art, and pos
sessed one of the most magnificent
private galleries in the world. A deep
student of medieval history, he col
lected many relics of the past. includ-
ing a Bible for which he paid many
thousand dollars, while at one time
he bought a cope which was stolen
from Italy and when the news of the
theft leaked out showed his magi
nanmity by returning it to the origi-
nal owners free Of cost.
Fortune Estimated at $780, 900, 600.
During all his years Mr.. Morgan en-
joyed life to the utmost. He was
fond Of dogs, and his kennels at Crags-
ton were the wonder Of breeders the
world over. He rode and shot and
angled enthusiastically and was fond
Of yachting. His yacht Corsair was
one of his favorite societies and clubs
in the United States and Europe.
1t is impossible to estimate with
any degree OF accuracy the size of the
Morgan fortune. 1t has been various
ly estimated in recent years at from
SIS. 000. 900 TO 5000. 000. 1000. II it is
anywhere lear the latter figure. it is
equally true that he made as much
for others.
In 1861 Mr.. Morgan married Miss
Amelia Sturges. who died the follow
ing year. In 1865 he married Frances
Louise Tracy. by whom he had one
son and three daughters. The son,
J p. Morgan. Jr, is now a man Of
middle life. and for a number of years
has been the active head of the Nor.
