BULGAR ATROCITIES RE-TOLD
GREEK KING DESCRIBES BAR.
BAROUS PRACTICES.
Flight Of Peasants Saved Coun.
try From Worse
SLAUGHTER.

New York, July liking Constan-
tine Of Greece, from his headquarters
at Hadji Beilik, near Sores, sends to
The Associated Press a detailed ac-
count Of the atrocities of the Bull
garians in Macedonia. He declares
that only the precipitate flight Of
the inhabitants of the villages and
towns prevented a still greater
slaughter.
The following is the kings mes
sage in part, through Colonel Dous-
mani, chief of the general staff Of
his majesty:
'The first city to be scourged was
pie who had remained 1t their homes
after the events occurring in the Pan
Sheon district were massacred by the
%retreating enemy. who did not fail to
light the path of their flight by the
flames of the city to which they had
applied the torch.
THE precipitate flight of the peas
ants in the surrounding villages is
the only reason why we have not a
greater number of victims to deplore.
On our left wing 700 Mussulmans Of
the Environment of Kilisseh, a nest
of Bulgarian comitadjis irregular
troOps) shared the same fate. Two
of our officers, who, in a bayonet as
sault, had been left lying wounded on
the field a few steps from the enemy's
trenches, were found, when the at
tack was renewed, to have had their
eyes gouged out.
"At Dorian, before their fight, the
enemy dragged the metropolitan and
80 OF the leading citizens from their
homes. They have never been seen
again.
"At Trumitza, fortunately, the
enemy had time to kill only two of
the persons imprisoned. But all these
things are as nothing compared with
what happened at Dimirhissar, Sores
and Doxato, where everything vas
sacked by fire and sword.
"DoXato is no longer anything but
a pool of blood. OF it's $500 inhabi-
tants, only $50 remain. A great num-
Der Of the little villages along the
route taken by the fleeing army were
the scenes of like atrocities"

NEW TARIFF GUT TO
Be Elsa PERI Gent.
FINANCE COMMITTEE SUBMITS
MEASURE TO THE SENATE
FOR DEBATE.
DISCUSSION WILL BE WARM
Fierce War Will Be Waged by Re.
publIcans as Present Rates
Under Payne-Aldrich Law
Are Slaughtered.

Washington, July 19.-An average
rates OF the existing Payne-Aldrich
tariff law is proposed by the demo
cratic Underwood-Si Simmons tariff bin
upon which the senate began general
debate yesterday, according to the re-
port of the finance committee major
ity, submitted by the chairman, Sen
ator +. NJ. Simmons.
The report also shows that the bill,
as reported to the senate, provides
rates APP per cen lower hal the Tn
derwood bill as it passed the house
and that from it, together with other
government receipts for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1914, there will be an
estimated surplus in the government
treasury of $1,000, 900.
A salient feature of his bill, it is
pointed out, is the large increase of
imports to be admitted free of duty.
Under the house bill the value of
free listed imports, on the basis of
1917 importations, was $103, 900, 900,
whereas the democrats of the senate
In caucus, by sweeping changes, pro-
pose to free-list imports valued at
$l47,367, 600, an increase in undutiable
imports over the house bill of SAB, 367,-
900.
Upon the basis of ten months for the
coming fiscal year, the report esti-
mates that the receipts from customs
alone under the new bill will be $685.
100000; from income tax for ten
months, 58,330,0G0; corporation tax,
$37 900, 900; internal revenue, includ-
ing tax on cotton futures of 5000, 900,
1907, 900 600; and hat the revenue
from all other sources will bring the
total for the fiscal year to 1896. $40, 900.
With disbursements, estimated for the
committee by treasury experts It
1894, 100, 600, a balance is shown in
favor of the government Of 81, 020, 900.
In %analyzing it's changes in the
house administrative features of the
bill, the committee deemed the
amendments of the house entirely too
drastic" particularly those authoriz-
ing examination of books of foreign
manufacturers, a 8 per cent tariff
discount OH imports in American ships
and other like features, which we're
stricken out. Particular attention is
called to the senate provision "desig-
mated to furnish the president with
power to impose tariff duties of a re-
%taliatory character upon all articles
comprised in a specified list" which
includes many agricultural products.
For some years." says the report,
in referring to this retaliatory provi-
sion, there has been a development
OF maximum and minimum tariffs
abroad, and in not a few instances the
government of the United States has
been compelled to see its citizens sub
jected to harsh and discriminating tar
III treatment abroad without being
able under the law to afford relief"

Washington, July Recommending
upon the announcement Wednesday
that Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson
had been summoned from Mexico City
to confer with President Wilson re-
garding the situation in Mexico, Sec
rotary Bryan said that this step had
been in contemplation for some time.
He refused to discuss a suggestion
that this statement indicated the am
~bassador's recall and that it was not
brought about by the action of the dip
lomatic body in Mexico City in formu.
lating a joint complaint against the
attitude of the United States toward
the Huerta government.
Makes No Admissions.
The secretary would not confirm O
deny the report of the meeting of for
elgn representatives in Mexico.
There is much speculation in official
circles regarding Ambassador Wilson's
future, for it is generally believed that
his return to the Mexican capital 10
by no mean certain.
If the president should conclude that
IT is lot necessary to return Mr.. Will
o to Mexico, the American embassy
there will be left in charge of Sec
rotary O'Shaughnessy. Thus it's status
woulI correspond to that Of the Mexi-
can embassy in Washington, which
Is under the care of Secretary Algara.
Recognition of tho Huerta regime
would be involved in the dispatch to
that country of a new ambassador.
Important Announcement Due.
II Is believed In official and diplo-
matte circles that an important an
nouncement of the attitude of the
United States in the pending situation
will follow the ambassadors confer
ence with the president and Secretary
Bryan. The presidents action follow
ing closely the unofficial
men that some of the foreign powers
which already have recognized the HUI
erta government were pressing for
some indication of this governments
attitude toward the continued disor-
ders In Mexico leads to that belief.
Petition Is Wired in.
Tucson, AriZ.-"We pray you not
10 permit the nations of Europe to
make of the United States the collec-
ton agency to collect money that they
have advanced or have agreed to ad-
for the support of the murder
Gus Huerta government"
This petition was wired to President
Wilson by lgnacio ~Pesquiera, the con-
stitutionalist governor OF Sonora.
The i%nsurgent governor of Sonora
further asserts that Hureta is back
of European powers in urging a de-
claration of the attitude of the United
States towards Mexican affairs.
The Message.
The message to President Wilson
continues
These nations have advanced their
money with full knowledge that it
was to a usurping government. Now,
when Hureta and his followers find
they are being crushed, he appeals
TO the powers which have advanced
money to him that they force the
United States to grant him ~recogni-
ton.

been fighting and winning battles to
test against this attempt to take from
them their hard won laurels. The

ways will protect American interests
