London, Jan. 29,-The note drafted
by peace delegates of the allies was
delivered by Stojon Noyakovitch
head of the Servian delegation, TO
Rechad Pasha shortly after noon to-
day
The determining factor impelling
the allies to this course of action was
the receipt of reports during the
night and again this morning of great
ferment among the Turkish troops
stationed on the Tchatalja lines, a
large portion of whom appear to be
unwilling to follow the lead of the
young Turks.
1t is considered here that in
view of the internal complications in
Turkey Mahmoud Shefket Pasha, the
new grand vizier, may yield before
the energetic act of the allies.
The gravity of the situation at Con
s;antinople is shown by the large ma
vel forces concentrated by the Euro
rean powers at the entrance to the

which in the past, has refused to join

on the heels of his campaign for re-

throughout the counties of the Albany

his work as prosecuting attorney, and
the strain told on him severely. He was
under treatment of physicians for sew

most submerged in the pool, made by
removing clay for the old brickyard
nearby.
Mr.. Reese made haste to see the
sheriff and coroner and as he left the
spot he was met by Joseph and Louis

SUMTER FARMERS ARE
HOLDING THEIR COTTON
They Sell When Price is
High

Mr. JEFF d. Stewar. is one of Sum
ter's enterprising farmers who sells
his cotton when the price suits him,
instead of rushing it to market in Oc-
tober, when values generally are low.
Yesterday morning five spanking
teams from his farm near Americas
drew up at the Council warehouse
with twenty-five bales of cotton, the
last of Mr. Stewards crop of 1875 bales.
The ten good mules drawing the five
wagons attested the prosperity the
owner.
Mr.. Stewart operates ten plows and,
besides making an abundance of corn,
hay oats and other crops, produces
about 1875 bales of cotton year as Il
surplus crop" to be sold when prices

many of such farmers, a fact which
makes it the banner county of South
