BRYAN ANSWERS QUESTION
Secretary Of State Says He Would
Not Advocate Suggested In
crease of His Salary.

Mountain Lake Park, Md. IF
an annual salary of $4,000 for
the secretary of state is not sufficient
to maintain him and his family in a
manner befitting the dignity Of the
high office would you advocate an in
crease in that salary?"
This question was asked Hon. Will
lam Jennings Bryan, secretary of
state, Thursday afternoon after he
had delivered chautauqua lecture
for which he received $3.50.
''No, I would not advocate the in
crease as suggested replied Mr..
Bryan, "for the salary Is sufficient to
meet the expenses of the secretary
of state when those expenses are con.
fined to his home and official life. This,
however, is not the case with me. The
fact ought not to be overlooked and II
ought not to be necessary for me to
mention that in my life are certain
fixed charges which must be met
These charges. with my living ex
penses and expenses incidental to my
position exceed my salary"

PLAN OF U.S.. IN LATIN LANDS
Administration Denies Report That
This Country Intends to Gobbie
Up Southern Republics.

Washington, D. C.-The proposal
of Secretary of State Bryan, backed
by the emphatic approval of President
Wilson, that with the consent of Mica
ragua the United States establish a
virtual protectorate over that country
has been eagerly seized upon as in
dicating the working out of an exten.
sive policy by this administration with
respect of the whole of Latin America
Reports that this administration
has ambitious plans to gobble up all
the Latin American republics in a
great campaign of territorial
| aggrandizement have been promptly
and emphatically denied by the high
est government officials.
In political and legislative circles
every effort was made to discover in
connection with the Nicaragua pro-
posal some vital intention on the part
of the Wilson administration with re-
spect to Mexico. AS a matter of fact
there is no connection. The Mica
ragua case is an isolated one which at
present has nothing to do with the
policy of the United States respecting
any other American nation.

MAN UH05ii:: ENGINE
KILLED BOY SUICIDE
Driven to Act by Relentless
Vengeance of Mother.
ATTEMPTS TO SLAY FAMILY
Woman Who Lost Son Sits at Fatal
Crossing and Silently Points Fin.
ger at Engineer Every Time
Locomotive Passes.

Philadelphia, Pa-The relentless
vengeance of Mrs. Ross Crovowiez,
whose six-year-old son was killed
on May last by n switching engine
run by Engineer Lewis S. Faber, is
assigned as the cause for the engi-
neers suicide Thursday following an
attempt to murder his wife and three
children.
Points Silent Finger.
On May z last the engine in charge
of Faber ran down and killed the
Crovowiez boy at street crossing
The accident unnerved Faber and he
took four days off after which he re-
turned to work.
Ever after that when his engine
passed the fatal crossing, the engi-
neer noticed woman sitting on the
track and. as his engine went by, she
silently pointed her finger at the en-
gineer and held her arm rigid so long
as his engine remained in sight, when
she ambled away from the track and
back to her home. The woman never
failed to be on hand night or day when
the engine passed.
Engineer Goes Insane.
Faber made an investigation and
found that the woman was the mother
of the 6-year-old boy his engine had
accidentally killed. He sent friends
to her to request her to keep away
from the track-to explain that the
killing of her son was an accident, She
refused to remain away.
Two weeks ago Faber told his wife
that the woman was driving him In
sane. Thursday he proved it by at,
tempting to kill his family and then
killing himself.

TURK TROOPS AGAIN
OCCUPY ADRIANOPLE
March Into City After Short
Conflict With BuIgars.
The Bashi Bazouks Begin an Orgy of
Burning and PiIIaging After They
Retake Place They vaIiantly
Defended Against Allies.

London, England.-The Turks have
reoccupied Adrianople which they so
valiantly defended against the Balkan
allies several months ago and, not
content with their entry into the city,
are pillaging and committing many
atrocities, according to a dispatch to
the Times from Sofia. The entry was
made early Sunday morning. There
was a short conflict with small force
of Bulgarians defending the city after
which the Turks swept into the city
unobstructed. The Bashi Bazouks
then began an orgy of burning and
pillaging and committing other atroci-
ties. This was proceeding at the time
the dispatch was sent from Sofia. The
Roumanian troops continue their ad-
vance in an easterly direction towards
Servian territory.
The Daily Telegraph's special cor
respondent at Demirhissar, describing
the Bulgarian massacres in that region
which have been heretofore reported
in these dispatches says:
"Serres, a town of some $4,000 in
habitants, and all the countryside for
miles around is reeking shambles.
1t is Nigrita multiplied a hundred fold
in every item of borrow. 1t is quite
impossible to exaggregate either the
number Of victims or the variety or
the barbarity of their deaths. Not
only was the town of Series devas-
tated and the inhabitants butchered,
but the countryside for score of
miles has been practically wiped out.
My inquiries in the villages of this
district lead me to believe that during
the past few months no less than
$4,000 human beings have been done
to DEATH"

sarian operation to save at least the
life of the child. During the progress
of the operation the mothers heart
stopped beating and she was pro-
nounced dead. The child was success
fully brought alive into the world and
the surgeons then began battle to
restore life to the mother.
Pressing upon the diaphragm
through the incision in the abdominal
cavity, the surgeons animated the
woman's heart. After three hours
desperate work the heart responded.
TRANSMISSION of saline solutions, arti-
fetal respiration and oxygen were
further employed to aid nature and
the surgeons.

set in both will live.

AIM TO PREVENT

Democrats Amend Owen
Glass Currency Bill.
.REDRAFT NOTE ISSUE SECTION
House Committee Emphasizes Fact
That the United States Govern

Strict Gold Basis.

Washington, D. C.-To prevent

Glass currency bill was increased by
amendment SO that 1t may order fed.
eral reserve banks to purchase or sell
approved rediscount securities in the
open market to protect its reserves.
What Amendment Means.
The bill as originally framed pro-
vided in section Is, that any federal
reserve bank may, under rules and
regulations prescribed by the federal
reserve bank board, purchase and sell
In the open market securities eligible
for rediscount" The amendment
adopted by the house banking commit
tee says that any reserve bank, Shall
when required by such board make
such purchases and sales.
The class of such rediscount securi-
ties enumerated are bankers bills,
cable transfers and bills of exchange
Of the kinds and maturities made
eligible for rediscount. Included in
the latter are bills of exchange issued
or drawn for agricultural, industrial
or commercial purposes or the pro-
ceeds of which have been used for
such purposes.
Federal reserve banks have secured
the enlargement of their field of in
vestments to include bonds issued by
states, counties or municipalities. The
original plan was to restrict reserve
bank investments to government bonds
and in short time United States obli-
cations or of it's dependencies or of
any state of foreign government. The
amendment cuts out investment in
foreign government bonds.
Strict Gold Basis.
Emphasizing the fact that this gov
ernment is to remain on a strict gold
basis, the Democrats of the house COM
mittee directed the redrafting Of the
note issues section of the bill so that
all reserve banks must carry gold re-
serve to meet the note issue. The bill
permitted the counting of lawful
money" against such treasury notes
as might be taken out by the member
banks from the reserve banks. It was
held that under this section the re-
serve banks could hold in their reserve
greenbacks, silver certificates and sill
yer dollars.
The gold reserve to be held by the
reserve banks shall be 331a per cent
Of the treasury notes issued, of which
gold percentage the federal reserve
board may require deposit of 5 per
cent in the United States treasury.
Through another change in the bill
it is required that every federal re-
serve bank shall have on hand in its
own vaults at all times in gold or gold
certificates not less than 1913 per cent
Of it's outstanding demand liabilities.
