BALKANS DEFy|NC
SIX GREAT POWERS
Will Not Muzzle Their Guns
Until Turkey Accepts
Their Terms.
CLING TO DETERMINATION
TO EXACT INDEMNITY
London Believes It Entirely Possible
That Allies May March Into
Constantinople.

LONDON, March %. = Although the
great powers have commanded that the
Balkan war cease. the fighting continues.
The allies, taking heart by success, re-
ceive the ultimatums politely. and reply
that they agree with these in principle.
but cannot accept all the details.
The spectacle of the six great powers
working in harmony on the dreaded east
ern question is matched by the equally
strange spectacle of the Balkan states
defying them. Meanwhile the concert of
the powers remains as strong only as its
weakest link, and since Russia cannot
be expected to use her army and navy
against her Slav brethren to loosen their
grip on the Turk, the proceedings have
been reduced to diplomatic debate
Must Have Indemnity.
The allies have accepted the powers
peace terms rs "a basis of negotiations -
but cling to their determination to exact
an indemnity and refuse to muzzle
their guns until the Turks accept their
terms Their experience Of the last arm
isttce. they declare. was that Turkey
used it merely to gain time.
The Bulgarian army. therefore, con-
tinues to batter at the Tchatalja lines
and, according to the last reports, stands
just where it did when the armistice
was arranged December 3. last. 1t is
entirely possible that the allies may
march into Constantinople before peace
Is signed.
Montenegrins Protesting.
The Montenegrins are protesting
through the diplomats and the press and
by every means against the powers de-
cision to include Scutari in the new state
of Albania. Their argument is: why
should Europe deprive Montenegro of a
city necessary for it's prosperity, to
create new and artificial slater

every part of the flooded west side of

were lodged in the temporary morgues.
and most of them were identified.
Practically all of those marooned In the
portunity to reach ground by boat, or by
transfer wagons Many chose to remain
In their flooded homes.
Dayton Refugees Arrive.
approximately 1000 persons, refu-
gees from the Dayton flood. arrived in
Columbus today. most of them having
made their way by automobile and
trains. AS If pursued by tragedy. it
fell to them that their landing place
in this city should be within the radius
of the recently flooded hilltop district
OF the west side. The arrival OF the
refugees here was unexpected and no
arrangements had been made to care
for them.
Acting Adjt. Gen. John C. Speaks
was notified and said that the state
would do the best that could be done to
provide them with food and shelter. Gen
Speaks said that the local relief COM
mittees were being sorely taxed, but that
he had been advised by the Columbus
all possible assistance in housing and
feeding the Dayton arrivals.

me rush of mud-stained water from the
upper Potomac continues and late last
night the current showed with undi-
mlnlshed force. Navigation by sailing
craft, even when assisted by a power
equipped yawl. Is an mpossibilitv from
about Indian Head to this city and the
tugboats have a hard time TO make head
way against it.
Capt. Henry Davis. master of the tug
Camilla, which arrived here yesterday
morning towing tank barge No. 80 of the
standard Oil Company feet laden with
Oil. reports having found it extremely
difficult to bring the barge up the river
and at times between this city and Alex
andr7a 1t was all the powerful towboat
could do to drag the vessel through the
Whirling waters. The barge was to have
gone up to Georgetown to unload part of
cargo. but 1t was deemed wiser not to
attempt to take 1t through the bridges in
the prevailing current, and she DISCHARGED
all her cargo at the Eastern branch sta
ton.
The Camilla was five hours coming
from Fort Washington to this city, a
distance she would ordinarily make in
halr that time. The tug and barge left
out and had no trouble going down the
river. the current taking them along al
most without the use of steam.
Tug Kenmore's Experience.
The tug Kenmoe of the Southern Trans
portation Company fleet started up the riv-
er with three barger. two laden and one
light. for this city. At Fort Washing
ton she had to anchor the bargest bearing
cargoes while she came on with the light
one. She had hard fight against the
current in going to Georgetown, but she
made it, and later went back to the
anchored barges and brought them up
one at time.
The tugs of the sand companies, which
daily take lignters laden with sand to
Georgetown. have been forced to cut out
their trips until the current loses some
Of it's strength
While the added volume of water will
not cause any serious trouble at this
city. it has given the peelers of the
lighthouses at Georgetown plenty of work
to do in protecting the floats and beats
from logs that have been brought down.
An eddy at Georgetown seems to set
most of the debris in toward the boat
houses and as some of the logs that
came down were of good size and were
carried by tn erapidly moving waters at
a speed of five or six miles an hour. they
had to be kept away from the stages and
boats to prevent damage. This is hard
work and the boathouse people will be
more than glad when the current stops
running.
May Interfere With Fishing.
Some fear is expressed by the fisher
men that the great quantity of muddy
water coming down the river will have a
bad effect on the springs fishing season.
and will delay the catch of shad and
herring by the big seines at the shores
a short distance below Alexandria. 1t is
stated that fish do not like muddy water,
and if they come into the river before
it has chance to settle. they may
turn back. and in that case may not
come up to the upper river to spawn.
