.BULGAR|ANS ARE
FACING CALAMITY
URGENT APPEAL MADE TO RED
CROSS SOCIETY OF AMERICA
FOR ASSISTANCE.

Washington, d. c., Sept. 1S.--As an
indirect appeal for funds for the relief
Of the suffering thousands in Bulgaria,
the Red Cross today made public a
letter it had received from Lieut. Gen
eral Nelson A. Miles in which the retir.
ed army officer portrays in graphic
language the horrors that have atten-
ded the war in the Balkans. .
Starvation, inadequate hospital SER
vice and absence of medical stores are
among the calamities the Bulgarian
people are facing. ...
In one field General Miles declared,
he saw four thousand wounded men
lying without shelter from the sun or
rain
mo more urgent cause was ever pre-.
scented than the present" says General
Miles, "and no more urgent appeal was
ever made to the generous human
spirit of America than the one now
made to send aid to the Red Cross at
Washington, to be forwarded to her
majesty, the Queen of Bulgaria, who is
at the head of the Red Cross Of that
country"
General Miles recommended that q
part of the funds, possibly one-fourth,
be sent to the Red Cross of Servia,
though their sufferings were not so
great and their means of relief more
ample"

THAW PATIENTLY
AWAITS A HEARING
EXPRESSES HOPE THAT COVER
NOR WILL REFUSE TO PERMIT
HIS EXTRACTION.

] Concord, N H. Sept 18.--Harry K
Thaw sat behind great heap of news
papers at the breakfast table this
morning reading Washington dis
patches, saying that If his case went
to the United States supreme court
years might roll by before decision
; was handed down.
1--WE can wait" said the fugitive
"but I hope Gov. Felker will decide
against my extradition at once, 80 that
it will not be necessary to press our
habeas corpus writ in the federal
courts"
Rain during the morning swept the
big elms in front of the state house
where the extradition hearing Is to be
held on Tuesday and Thaw expressed
a desire to walk through the grounds.
The sheriff said that later his wish
would be granted.
Ten law clerks retained by Thaw's
counsel, were busy today looking up
state and federal court rulings in the
matter of extraditing person charg.
ed with crime, yet held to be legally
insane. \\s.
$50 far we have been unable to find
any case where person in Thaw's
position was ever extradited," said one
of the lawyers.
The same statement in substance
was made by Federal Judge Aldrich at
Littleton on Tuesday in discussion
with William Travers Jerome.

CHICAGO POLICE CHIEF ORDERS
DETECTIVES TO "sHooT TO
KILL" IF NECESSARY.

Chicago, Sept. 1S.-Chief Of Police
McWeeney detailed yesterday twenty
six men to make war on holdup men

in Chicago each October for many
years. The chiefs instructions were:
Shoot to kill If necessary. There
never must be such another state Of
affairs as existed last winter and the
time to prevent 1t is before it starts"
, Chief McWeeny's action followed
the murder today by four masked men
Of Michael Waschuk, stableman, who
sought to prevent the robbery of a
delivery station of department store.
The robbers drove to the livery station
in an automobile and left the police
no trace.
Mrs. Francisco Alto, wife Of Vincen-
20 Alto, was shot in the back and prob
ably fatally wounded last night as she
and her husband were entering NOV

entana, both grocers, were fired on last
night. but neither was hit. Each had
received threatening letters.

were wounded, four killed and forty
five suspects arrested before the
bands were exterminated.
