ARE QUIET
IN BALKANS
POSITION BETWEEN TURKEY
AND THE ALLIES REMAINS
PRACTICALLY UNCHANGED.

London, Feb. 24.-The mission to
London of Haiku Pasha the Turkish
ex-grand v~izier, thus far has had no
definite result and the position be-
tween Turkey and the Balkan allies
mains unchanged.
Vague rumors are in circulation
here of an important Bulgarian vic
tory at Bulair, but Sofia is silent re-
garding it, and, according to an Of
fetal statement issued tonight in Con-
stantinople, nothing important has
happened eth at Bulair, Adrianople
or along the Tchatalja lines.
Bulgaria has refused to consent to
the formation of a neutral zone at
Adrianople. Therefore, the consuls
and foreigners must remain inside. the
city unless the porte recedes from its
refusal to permit them to pass the
Turkish lines.
An ncensored dispatch from Con-
! stantinoplc received here brings the
interesting news that the porte had
| abandoned the idea Of making an Of
fensive or thanking movement and
would confine the operations of it's
troops to defending the Tchatalja and
Bulair lines, hoping that time will OPP
crate in Turkeys favor either by
bringing about complications in Eu-
rope or the exhaustion of the allies.
At the same time, the dispatch says,
Turkey, by making small concessions
concerning Adrianople, Will endeavor
to persuade the powers II the allies
of the advantages of an early peace.
The porte asserts that Adrianople Will
be able to resist another three weeks.
The Daily Telegraph's correspond
cnt, who has just spent a week in the
Dardanelles district, telographs by
way Of Constantinople that there. has
been no fighting at Gallipoli.
He says the Turks hold the Bulail
lines in great strength and that, ac-
cording to most reliable information
the Bulgarians have entrenched them
selves in front of the Turks posi-
tons and appear to have no present
intention of taking the offensive.
According to the correspondent
nearly 10000 splendid Turkish troops
have been landed in the Dardanelles
region from Enver Bey's armada.

Baltimore, Md, Feb. Embarrassing

General Rosalic G.. Jones of the suf-
fragette army changed her mind twice
today and as a result the marchers
are encamped tonight in a hotel i'll
this city.
When II army left Belair shortly
after 8 O'Clock this morning, an over
night stop at Overlea, five miles from
Baltimore, was planned. There was
discussion along the way and the go
ing Wa so good that it was decided
to push on to Baltimore. Then when
five of the soldiers had gained a long
lead, those in the rear voted to ignore
OVerlea and take a short cut. Thus
it was hat the main army reached
here an hour ahead of the Would-bc
paccmakers, who went to Overlea.
Marshal tarnam and a squad of
Baltimore police met the main army at
Hamilton, just outside of Baltimore.
From that point until the suffragists
reached their destination the crowd OF
followers swellcd until it reached 5000,
General Jones had requested that
most of the plans for their entertain
ment acre be abandoned. The start
for Washington probably will be made
Wednesday.

Spokane, Feb. 23.-(SpeCial.)-Sincc
baseball magnatcs have their organi-

decided that the proletariat of the
game, that is, the fans themselves,
must be organized. SO they have
formed a baseball booster club, in
whose ranks are a mayor, a few
judges, several scores of lawyers and
as many doctors and business men; in
fact, fans of high and low degree, and
have started before the season opens
to bring the 1913 pennant of the North
western league to Recreation park in
Spokane. In return for the privilege
of being allowed to purchase a ticket
and to yell for the home team, each
member has paid % cents into the
clubs treasury. In addition, the club
will act as a clearing house for the
receipt of suggestions from the vast
| army of persons who profess to know
more about the way the team should
be run than do Owner Joseph Z. Cohn
and Manager Harry Ostdick. The

Bush is attracting his share of at

Campbell slips us a clipping from a
QuakertoWn paper which say nice
things about the young twirler. Under
a picture hat might be a likeness Of
Bush, if you said it fast, the Phila-
delphia Enquirer says:
Leslie Bush, the right-hand tWirler,
who joined the Athletics on their last
swing around the Western circuit last
season. Bush showed so much speed
in his workouts that "Stuffy' McInnes
declared: III that youngster ever
shows up in morning practice at Shibe
park, I'm going to get a cramp in my
tomac and miss a workout. He's
got the speed of a rifle"
Bush was born in Brainerd, row
county, Mimi, on November 27, 1898,
so that he is now only a little more
than 10 years of age. Bush began
playing with uniformed clubs while he
was still in short trousers. He first
joined the Brainerd City Baseball club
and after playing infield positions for
three years tried his hand at pitching
in 1911. He was so successful in the
latter department of the game that he
concluded to continue to fool the bats
men. Last spring Manager Blanken-
sup OF the MISSOURI cluD sent BUSH
a contract and he concluded to make
the national game his profession.
Bush's record with Missoula was "a
games won to 10 lost, and he had a
batting average of .3O2. Bush added
to his experience last fall by joining
the Athletics. He will greet Manager

Negroes Ordered to Move.

Coger, Ok, July 6.-Notice has
been given by mass meeting OF
white farmers to all negroes not land
owners to leave the vicinity of Coger,
in Caddo county, where Bonnie Sim
mons, an 18-year-old negro, was
lynched recently following the murder
of 16-year-old Susan Church, white
girl.
It was learned that negroes were
making threats because of the lynch
ing and the mass meeting was called.
Resolutions were adopted that GER
tain negroes were a menance to life
and property.
That the floating population OF the
negro element must leave at once;
that negroes who had rented land
would be permitted to make and
gather their corn, but then leave, and
that negroes who own their own
homes will be permitted to remain,
is the sense of the action.
