FINISH AR,MIsTICE, WAR
 RESUMPTION IS LIKELY
Turkeys Grand Vizier EOesn't Favor Renewing Possibilities.

The decision definitely to break up the peace conference in London simul- taneously with the presentation to the Turkish government of the note of the European powers was reached by the chiefs of the peace delegations of the Bankan allies The resolution of the representatives of Bulgaria, Montene- gro and Servia will be communicated to the porte in formal note.
 At the same time it was decided to instruct the commanders of the armed forces of the allies in the field to ter minate the armistice which has been in operation since Dec. 8.
 No word of the proceedings of the grand council called by Kiamil Pasha. the grand vizier of Turkey. was made public. but from a semiofficial source it was learned that the council probably would decide for war.
 The grand viZier. it is known. is not in favor of renewing hostilities. know ing that the Turks are not in much better condition than when the armis tice was signed. but the military party and the Young Turks. who are decided jingoes, are in control of the council.
 It is said that the grand vizier, even should he SO desire. could not surren der Adrianople to the allies. The mil itary party would immediately over throw the ministry and take the gov ernment into its own hands.

THREAT ALARMS RICH.
Charged, Ettor and Giovanitti Advised
 Striking Walters to Poison or Spoil Food.

The hotel and restaurant keepers of New York are thoroughly in earnest. they said. in their desire to have Jo seph J. Ettor and Arturo Giovanitti the Industrial Workers of the World agitators, held criminally responsible for their recent speeches to the strik- ing cooks and walters, in which it is claimed they advised and suggested the poisoning or spelling of food serv- ed to patrons of restaurants.
 Many rich men are financially inter ested in the large hotels. The alleged speech of Ettor suggesting poisoning the food of millionaires has been taken by them, apparently. as a personal menace. At their instigation and un- der their guarantee to pay all ueces- sary expenses, large detective ageb. cy has been retained to put all the agi tators under constant watch. as well as to see to 1t that any waiter under. taking to carry out the "Ettor- Giovan- nitti idea will be caught in the act.

PRc9ERS PLEASED
 BY BAKER'SSTORY
PujO Investigators Sure They
 Have Disclosed Monopoly.
PLAN TO RESTRICT TRUST

Control of Banks and Corporations by
 Few Men Has Gone Far Enough.
 Committee Decides, and Must Be
 Curbed by Lsw-Baker's Admission
 Is Illuminating.
 Attorney Samuel Untermyer and members of the Pujo money trust in veStigation committee are greatly pleased with the testimony given by George F. Baker. chairman of the board of the First National bank of New York city. They feel that MT Baker disclosed himself as one of the dominant factors in the American world of finance. though he modestly refrained from permitting himself t0 be so chara cterized. It is impossible to obtain from any member of the com mittee or it's counsel any statement for quotation on the subject. because they have a working agreement not to be quoted in advance of the preliminary report, which they will begin to pre- pare, after another week of testimony But it is known that they consider Mir Bakers testimony as being of supreme importance. us.. la
 Even without the climax of the last session, when the aged banker admit ted that there was peril to the nation in present financial concentration of capital, the committee members feel that they have proved what they set out to prove They have not taken the position that there is a money trust such as would be unlawful under the Sherman law. They have contended. however, that there was dangerous concentration of money and credits in the hands of few men of great power in the financial world, which. in fact. amounted to a trust or monopoly They point out that MT. Baker admit ted this concentration and said sober ly that it had gone quite far enough and would be very bad in the hands of bad or ambitious men.
 Just what would he sought by him was disclosed by Mir. Untermyer last January before the house rules com mittee. before he had been appointed counsel for the inquiry. He said:
 If you expect in the course of your in- vestigation to find the existence of what has been miscalled the money trust you will not find it. tt is if you mean by a money trust trust in the sense in which we use the word as applied to unlawful combinations There is, of course, no such thing. There is no definite, fixed agree ment or combination among. the money powers of the country that are concen- trated in New York that is in violation oi There QYf m Q among these men that is in violation of law. But the investigation will discover what Is to my mind very large and great danger. an insidious condition. and one the per11s of which it seems to me have been much underestimated.

 The Daring Little Running Bird.
 Courage has little or no relation to bodily size. The humming bird is the smallest of birds, but also one of the most fearless and pugnacious. He at- tack kingbirds and hawks, and those tyrannical creatures. though of mon strous size in comparison, seem not at all ashamed to fly from his onsets. The fights of humming birds among themselves are often fierce and pro- tracted.
