GREEKS CAPTURE:
TURKISH FORTRESS,

Men Surrenders After TWO-Days
Fierce BOmbardment=-T Greek

rendered to the Greek army, toda., af-
ter a defense which forms one of the
most brilliant episodes of the Balkan
war.
The surrender was preceded by a
fierce bombardment lasting without
cessation two days and two nights.
Every available gun. including a num-
Der of heavy howitzers lent by the
Servian artillery was brought to bear
by the Greeks upon the forts defend
ing tho beleaguered city.
No fewer than 10000 shells were
fired from the Greek guns during the
first days cannonade. Gradually the
Turkish batteries at Bzania, Manoli-
ara, Saknt and elsewhere were silenced
under the sustained rain of projectiles.
THE Crack commanders by feint
led the Turks to believe that their at
tack would be made from the right
and as soon as the attention of the
defenders had been distracted the
Greeks hurled large bodies of infantry
on to the Turkish left. The Ottoman
troops. utterly surprised. fell back in
disorder.
The batteries on the heights of
Bizani, which had been the mainstay
of the defence. were unable to stand
the storm of shells and had been put
out of action, by II o'clock, yester
day morning.
The Greeks pushed their forwar
movement, during the afternoon. and
occupied the Turkish batteries on the
Sakni and Elias hills. capturing all the
guns and Ito artillerymen. Then the

The new draft of the bill relative te

This is the first veto of this session
The Governors message, accompanying

purchasing public hut was denunciatory
of provisions subieeting the business
world to such hazard of criminal liabil-
ity for acts which the most honorable
and careful man might occasionally
commit without harm to anyone
lie declared himself to be firmly con-
WINGED that the bill enacted is too drastic
a departure from the usual type OF
criminal statutes against fraudulent
practice, in that neither fraudulent in
tent nor actual injury to anyone is re-
garded as an element of the crime which
is created.
Every statement of fact" avowed the
message, however innoeently made,

vincing reasons for believing it to be
true. if actually either untrue, 'decep-
tive or misleading is under the ban

The Governor continues with a dis
cussien OF the basic expressions of the
most trivial penal statutes against
fraud. none of which. he finds. are In
this act He pays tribute to the Ameri-
cans "pTe-eminent in their genius for
advertising and AYERS it natural in
stinet for all men having merchandise

light as possible. He believes that

purchaser might then declare himself
misled and that the advertiser would be
subjected to all kinds of spite prosecu-

Governor" tie object OF this statute Is
to punish fer fraud and deceit in the
selling of goods would recommend
that the statutes we already have upon
that subject be examined, and if not
sufficient to cover all contingencies
which may arise. that such amendment
be introduced as will meet all reasonable
demands of the community upon this
