BRIEF ITEMS OF
 LOCAL INTEREST

The use 4o of boats by members of several East Side gangs in the raid- ing of orchards along the waterfront in that section of the city, committing of petty larceny and insulting of prop ertv owners, who object. has been complained of to the police and it is considered probable that several pow CT boats will be pressed into use by the authorities in an attempt to curb the activities of the gangsters. For mer Alderman George w King of 3S7 Stratford avenue, complained to the police today that there are. sew eral gangs using boats in crossing the channel during the early evening, the members stealing fruit and other small articles and making an easy escape by use of the boats. Several who have objected, among them several women, have been insulted.
 Much mystery is attached to the discovery of bon fire composed of women's wearing apparel discovered on Mill Hill avenue last night by at tacl1es of Bridgeport hospital. Police can Alexander CougtIin discovered that the fuel was five waists, several suits of underc1othing and a quan- tity of lace.
 Suspecting that many of the chicke en thefts being complained of to the po-
 
 several historic hangouts for tramps, the authorities are planning to make a trip. of investigation to their hang outs In the past there have been wis., its that have been productive of the rounding up of persons wanted by the police for other causes. At po- lice headquarters today it was report ed that the authorities of Fairfield l Stratford and Trumbul1 will likely be called upon to assist.

QUIZ OPPONENT
AS TO CRITICISM
MilIburn Township Committee
men Take Exception to
Leagues Circular.

Edwin d. Pannell, candidate for
township committeeman in Mlllburn,
who is also president of the Tax
payers League of that town, was
quizzed last night by members of the
Township Committee as to the au-
thorship of the circular which was
made public last week In Mr. Pam
nells behalf. The members of the
committee took exception to the
figures contained in the circular with
reference to the administration. Mr.
Pannell admitted he had helped to
prepare the circular, but had not
checked up the items.
Committeeman Byrd claimed that no
committee had prepared the table of
figures, but that 1t had been done by
one man, and that the committee was
anxious to learn who that man was,
as the figures were false and mis-
leading. He said 1t was the intention
of the Township Committee to have
those figures made straight and ex-
pose the man who was responsible for
them.
Mr.. Pannell was told that the COM
mittee did not object to honest criti-
cism. but did object to such false
statements.
Mr.. Pannell claimed that he was not
able to give the committee the in
formation they desired. The figures
complained of were published and dis
tributed late last week, too late to be
answered by the committee, it was
said.

Sussex FreehOlders Wait
for Stevens's Word on Road
Special to the Evening Star.

Special to the Evening star.
NEWTON, Nov. 3.-Answering a
delegation from FREEDOM Township
that appeared before them yesterday,
the Board of Freeholders told their
visitors that they would advise them
about improving a road from New
ton down through their district as
soon as they had talk with Colonel
r. A. Stevens relative to the State
road department taking over
macadam roads already constructed
or planned for Sussex county as
State "blue line" routes. The dele
cation, headed by Colonel w. +.
Whittemore, asked the board what
had become of the petition for the
road in FREEDOM. which had been filed
with the board in January, 1913. In
the petition the township had agreed
to pay 10 per cent. of the cost, The
board said that the petition was
still on file and that the reason that
no action had been taken was be-
cause the boards attention had been
taken up with the improvement of
routes from Newton to Ogdensburg,
from Newton to Branchville, and
from Newton to Sussex.
These routes the State Road COM
mission had promised the board
would become Incorporated into the
State blue line routes. and in the
future maintained solely by the
State.
A road through FREEDOM, the board
said, was in the proposed blue line
routes and just what route would be
adopted would depend on where the
Warren county improved road would
enter Sussex county.

HOW ENGLISH GOT CONTROL OF
EGYPT, TURKISH TRIBUTARY

Nominally tributary state of the
Turkish empire, with a ruler whose
power is only slightly less than regal.
actually Egypt has been absolutely di-
rected by Englishmen in government
affairs for more than forty years.
In 1859 Ismail Pacha, by dint of
heavy bribing, obtained from the
Turkish government the title of
Khedive The title is Persian in
origin and signifies king. The rights
enjoyed by Ismail Pacha, the first
Khedive, were virtually those of roy
atty, including that of primogeniture
In 1870 Ismail Pacha asked the help
of European powers in conquering
Central Africa. There followed years
of warfare with the tribes of the in
terror. in which Great Britain took an
active part. When peace was finally
assured Great Britain took an equally
active part in formulating scheme of
government. What at the time SEEM
ed to be but temporary occupation
necessitated by threatened turbulence.
became virtual protectorate. The
Khedive, Ismail Pacha, had bought in.
dependence from Turkey, but his de-
scendants deferred to Great Britain
Egypt still remains a tributary state
of Turkey, ruled by an hereditary
prince, but since the rebellion Of
Arab in 1882 no important decree has
been promulgated without the APP
prevail, previously obtained. of the
British minister plenipotentiary.
France lost her mold in Egypt, where
for a time she had dual control with
Great Britain, in 1882, following the
revolt of Arab. A massacre in Alex
andria and the subsequent reduction
of it's forts by British men-of- war
showed that military Intervention was
inevitable. Great Britain invited both
France and Italy to cooperate. The
invitation was refused.
The administrative government is in
the hands of ministers appointed by
| the Khedive, one of whom acts az
prime minister There is also a legis-
lative assembly and provincial coun.
ellis. The ministers of the various de-
partments frame such DEGREES as seem
to meet their needs and they are taken
up in council. If the ministerial coun-
| ell approves, the decree goes to the
Khedive for signature
A British financial adviser is a
member Of the council, ex-officio, but
has no vote. No DEGREES involving
the appropriation or payment of any
money or the adoption of any finan-
cial policy, however, can become law
| without his consent.

greet at the rupture of the good re-

ment that the sublime porte will not
fail to seek an opportune solution
TO this question and will take all
measures to prevent a repetition Of
such incidents.
"You can declare TO Sazonoff that the
Ottoman government has decided to
forbid the Turkish fleet entering the
Back sea- We hope in turn that the
Russian fleet will not cruise near our
littoral
In the interests of both countries
l firmly hope that the imperial Rus
sian government will show in this af
fair the same spirit of Cancellation"
Foreign Minister Sazonoff, in his
reply, formally denied that the Rus
sian fleet had been the first to under
take hostilities, and he expressed the
belief that it was now too late to
enter into pourparlers of any kind.
Sazonoff added that only If Turkey
had Immediately expelled all German
military and naval officers in Tur-
key, would it have been possible to
enter into negotia lions with view of
providing satisfaction for those who
had suffered by the treacherous acts
of aggression on the Russian coast.
As the declaration Of the Turkish
charge altered nothing in the exist
ing situation the Russian foreign
minister Informed him that he would

The weather was fine. The fact
that many voters took a long time
TO mark their ballots gave rise to
reports that much cutting was being
done, but the slowness of the voters
may be due in measure to the large
number Of candidates to be voted.
