King George. conversing with the
delegates regarding the danger of fresh
struggles among themselves. remark
ed that another war would be crime
against humanity.
While peace Is being celebrated in
London, the situation IN the Near East
is still threatening. The report comes
from Constantinople, but lacks official
confirmation. that the European pow
ers have decided to demand the de-
mobilization of the Turkish and the
Balkan armies in order to secure per-
manent peace. 1t is believed that the
initiative in this action was due in
great measure to Russia.
The Russian government is said to
hold the opinion that the Balkan gov
ernmcnts are acting under the pres
sure of military influence, and that
no sane course is possible to them un-
less at least wo-thirds of their armies
should be demobillZed. The position
of the Servlan Cabinet is said to b
unsafe. but the resignation of the
ministers had not been announced up
to noon to-day

STREET CAR STRIKE ON
Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. AFTER a
Halloween of froicking, most of the

their Offices and shops today as a re-
suit of the street car. mems strike
shortly before midnight, after repeat
ed refusaIs on the part of the trac-
ton company to arbitrate demands
for higher wages and better working
conditions.
A special train carrying Chicago
strikebreakers is expected here today
and a riot is feared because of the at
titude of the traction company. A
committee of car men who called on
President Todd to present the unions
grievances were discharged. Cover
nor Ralston and Mayor Shank had
been appealed to by the men to get
the company to arbitrate, but Pres.
Todd refused.
Rioting by Halloween merTymak-
ers caused more than a score Of ar
rests. Bricks were thrown through
windows of two cars in the heart of
the city, troIeys were pulled off in
many instances, and passengers de-
serted the cars generally for fear of
injury, but the union car crews
finished their runs before quitting
their places. R. H. Wade, striker,
was struck on the head by brick.
One car, which had been riddled by
bricks, ran wild around curve on
North Pennsylvania street and ended
up wreck on the Art Institute
grounds.
When the strikers reached the
barns with. their cars they were paid
off and told their services would be
no longer required.

How to Avoid Christmas Fires.

Jefferson City-State Superlntend-
ent OF Insurance Revelle issued gen.
eral warning against the dangers Of
fire incident to the celebration Of the.
Christmas holidays. He lays down
rules to be followed in decorating and
lighting Christmas trees. He says;
Il feel certain we will have fewer
fires II the following rules arc
adopted:
Don't decorate Christmas trees
with paper. cotton or other inflamma.
BILE material.
use only metallic tlnsel or other
non.inflammable material and set the
tree securely, so that children in
reaching for things cannot tip 1t over.
Don't use cotton to represent
snow. II you must have snow use
asbestos fiber.
Don't permit children to light or
reilsht candles when parents are not
present; they frequently set fire to
their clothing instead. The tree It.
seff will burn like oil when the
needles have become dry.
Keep matches out OF the reach Of
children at holiday time; they like to
experiment with them.
The light, inflammable decorations
In stores. churches and bazasrs make
fires easy to start and easy to spread.
A match, gas flame or any electrical
defect may do Il.
Watch gas jets.
Watch smokers.
Don't make the slightest change in
electric wiring without consulting the
electrical inspector.
Remember, q house OF merriment
Is better than house OF mourning
The necessity Of using extreme care
against fire during the Christmas sea-
son caused state authorities to issue
the warning.
