GUILTY OF GROSS ATROCITIES
COMMISSION COMPLETES INQUI-
RY INTO THE BALKAN WAR.
Soldiers Tell of Horrible Crueities
That We're Perpetrated by Troops
of the Christian Allies.

PARIS.-Troops of the warning
RaIkan states committed gross atroc-
tiles, according to the evidence gain
cred by the international Carnegie
Commission in its searching inquiry
inst ended. The conclusions OF the
committee are to be published in
book form.
Ono of the noteworthy tasks was
the minute examination and Verlhca-
tion nv the commission of the famous
naczet of letters from Greek soldiers
cantured By the Bulgarians, contain
ing horrible descriptions OF how the
Greek soldiers avenged themselves
on Bulgarians who fell into theH
hands.
Other documents testify that the
Greeks occasionally made use OF the
forbidden dumdum bullet, and show
also the misdeeds of Bulgarians and
other beIIigerents. The inquiry dld
mot extend to the Roumanians.
Greeks Used Dumdum Bullet.
The commission collected material
from every available source. After
having seen the officials the commls-
sion went to the scenes of the alleged
atrocities and Intercepted at length
every class of witnesses, from SOL
diers who took part in the battles 10
women and children who were spec
tators and victims of the horrors.
Some of the most important evidence
taken by the commissioners came
from children.
Bulgars Greatest Offenders.
While it was found that the Bull
garians had committed the greatest
faults the soldiery Of other nations
taking part in the war also were
guilty of many hideous acts.
In Bulgaria, where the opinion is
that Bulgaria has been abominaDly
treated by the foreign press and
where the belligerents are scarcely
blamed for their misdeeds, the fullest
inquiry was invited and every possi-
BILE facility for Investigation was CIV
en- to the commission. The members
were permitted to question civilians
and soldiers at will.
Fury Uncomfortable.
The Bulgarians in their campaign
against the Turks behaved in an OK
emplary manner. 1t would appear
that the Bulgarians, who had borne
the brunt of the war against the
Turks, were exhausted at its end
and thought only of going to their
homes Immediately. They had been
promised this. When they were told
that their allies had acted in bad
faith and had betrayed them the Bull
garian fury burst forth uncontroll-
ably.

refund your money without question
if you are not thoroughly satisfied.

one that may stay in the system
and while seeming to benefit you
temporarily may do harm in the end
If you haven't felt these i'll effects

they are doing this, the people must
be kept in a condition of political
antagonism. The question OF tariff
reform must be urged through the
organization known as the Democrat
1c party And the question of pro-
lection, with reciprocity, must be
forced to public view through the Re-
publican party. By thus dividing
the voters we can get them to expend
their energies in fighting each other
over questions of no Importance to
us, except as tethers to lead the COM
mon heard.
"Thus by direct action we can Sc
cure all that has been so generously
planned, and thus for successfully
accomplished"
(Signed.) III. ZIMMERMAN, Sec'y.
Here are some of the fruits of
Democratic and Republican fusion.
They propose that the Farmers AL
lance and Knights of Labor be bro
ken up. They have succeeded. They
did not succeed in destroying the
Peoples party by the intro duction of
Gresham at Omaha, but four years
later, at st. Louis they did succeed
in introducing their "cat's paw
Bryan and accomplished their pur-
pose.
The Peoples party has taken on
new life, let all rally and defend it.
More Democrat and Republican Flu
sion.
We now invite your attention to
the election between Tilden and
Hayes, wherein all constitutional law
was over ruled, the government
usurped and an ELECTORAL commits
sion appointed and Hayes declared
president. At the same time a Dem
ocrat was elected governor of Louis
ana, but Republican, Kellogg was
inaugurated governor. Thus there
was Democrat and Republican fusion.
Law was ignored and government
usurped by Democrats and Republic
cans alike.
The history of the Democratic
party for the last hundred years has
been one of conspiracy and treason
against the liberties of the American
people.
Organism is the fad of an ignorant
and inexperienced Monte bank in
the hands of these conspirators.
This is no new role in the course
of human government. The question
now is, can the American people
combine. Has our American educa-
ton qualified the American people
for self government?

LIM0N BRANCH OF R. / LIKELY

An expenditure Of thousands OF dol
lars in improvements on the Rock
Island system in Colorado, with the
probable construction Of branch road
between Denver and Limon, which will
involve deal ammounting to several
millions Of dollars, is expected to follow
the election OF Thomas NJ. Schumacher
to the craftsmanship of the board of di
rectors Of the Rock Island Railroad.
Schumachers past policies in the di-
rection Of the FL Paso & Southwestern
and other lines has been that Of steady
development. The Rock leland at pres
ent has no line OF its own running into
Denver. the main line branches off at
Limon and runs to Colorado Springs.
Between Limon aud Denver the Rock
Island uses the Union Pacific road.
1t was announced authoritativly
yesterday that two surveys have been
made recently from points near Limon
to this city with view OF extending b
branch line to Denver.
One of the proposed routs, it is said,
begins at Stratton and follows to the
north Of the Union pacific line, enter
ing Denver by way of Scranton, the
terminus of the Colorado Eastern rail
road. The other route runs to the south
Of the Union Pacific road. extending
from Mattison on the Rock Island to
Denver.
1t is said that if the latter route is
chosen the branch will probably con
meet with the Colorado & Sor thern line
at Elizabeth.
1t is understood that the projection
OF either line will involve a deal am
mounting to several million dollars,
since it will necessitate the purchase Of
a part Of the Colorado & Southern track
Into Denver, or in the other case, the
purchase Of the Colorado Eastern.
