a man thought to be soldier. Enver' S
own soldiers have been trying to kill
him since he returned from Gallipoli.
Rumors are current that Enver has
died from bis wounds, but they lack
confirmation.
A private telegram received in Con-
stantinople declares that Gallipoli has
fallen. There is no confirmation of the
report.
1t is also reported that two Turkish
transports heavily laden with rein
forcements have been sunk by Bull
garian mines off Rodosto.
The Turks lost 5000 wounded in the
recent battle near Bulair. The Turks
were surprised sand unprepared fer a
fight They had, it is reliably report
ed, only one cartridge apiece.

"PoET OF THE sIERRAs" DIES.
End Comes to Joaquin Miller in His
Cabin Near San Francisco

Cfio SOHlSS 10 oOdQuIn mtItCT IN tbs
Cabin Near San Francisco.
San Francisco, Feb. 19.-Joaquin
Miller in reality Cincinnatus Heine
Miller, the venerable poet of the
Sierras," Is dead. He passed away
on Monday in his one-room cabin,
''The Heights" which he built with his
own hands in the Piedmont hills, near
Oakland, many years ago.
His daughter, Juanita Miller, and
his wife were with him.
Joaquin Miller was born November
10, 1871, in Indiana, but as child
went with his parents to Oregon and
later to California He fought and was
twice wounded in the Indian wars,
was an editor and lawyer, serving as
Judge of Grant county California, trav-
eled extensively in Europe and the
Orient and in his sixtfeth year made
journey to wild sections Of Alaska,
bearing it's rigors unfiinchingly.
He was lionized in Europe, where
his Songs Of the Sierras" and Songs
of Sunland," and other volumes of
poems were acclaimed. He appeared
in drawing rooms, at the opera and
theaters in flannel shirts and trousers
tucked into homely boots, but his &c
centricity and his marvellous head of
flowing, wavy hair and luxuriant beard
only served to make him more of So
cial attraction. But he was also most
seriously and cordially received by the
most prominent literary men of the
time

New York, Nov. 6.-The Fusion vic
tory over 1ammany became even
more impressive when the vote was
corrected, on the recovery of missing
election districts. Mitchels plurality
is 1854, Prendergast for comptrol
Ter won by 1850 and McAneny got
plurality of 1873. The total vote for
mayor was 623,O29. The registration
was 669,152, so the vote shows the
usual loss. McCall's vote was 234,495,
as compared with 304,00 for Sulzer
year ago and 250,37S for Gaynor four
years ago. Mitchel's vote in Brooklyn,
where he got 29,939 more than Sui
zer's big vote a year ago, surprised
the politicians. Mccall lost Manhat-
tan, Tammany's stronghold, to Mitch
ell by 27191 The Socialist vote for
Russell for mayor was 32,065, a gain
of 5,783 over a year ago. Sulzer was
elected to the assembly without trou.

William Sulzer has been returned
to Albany as a member of the assem-

sis of the vote shows that the Sulzer
impeachment hurt the Democratic
ticket. The Fusionists have control of
the city and county government. The
Tammany rout is complete. Prender-

16 of the Democratic organization S
councilmen were elected out of 26. All

lots, but a slate was prepared by the
Democratic leaders in which a few
Republicans were included.
Returns at Columbus show that the

the protection of the West Side from
floods has been overwhelmingly de-
feated.
At Toledo, Keller received 10000
votes, or more than b8h his oppo-

1000. Keller carried with him the
entire Republican ticket with the ex-
ception of one councilman, John

in the neighborhood of 1000. There
Is considerable doubt as to the rest of
