RICHARDS TO FIGHT
MANNING IN SECOND

Laurens Aspirant-Smith Has
f2,3I2 Majority.

The Columbia State this morning
says that John G.. Richards of Ker-
shaw and Richard L. Manning of
Sumter will make the second race
for governor of South Carolina in the
second Democratic primary to be
held September 8. With all the boxes
counted for, most of the counties be-
ing officially tabulated, Mr., Richards
had lead of 1906 over Mr.. Man
ming, who in turn led Mr.. Cooper by
the scant margin of 900 votes. The
official tabulation by the State execu-
tive committee may bring some
changes, but il is extremely unlikely
that there can be enough errors and
miscounts to put Mr.. Cooper in the
second race.
The final vote for governor, with
all but five counties official, and
with all those complete, stood: John
G. Richards, 26,594; Richard l..
Manning, 25,2S9; Robert A. Cooper,

can of Richland county, 831; John B.

For the United States senate
Ellison Durant Smith, the incum-
bent, defeated Gov. Cole l.. Blease.
Mayor L. ID. Jennings OF Sumter and
w. p. Pollock of Cheraw by a clear
majority OF 1892. His plurality
over Governor Bleas, who ran sec
ond, was 1894. The vote stood
with all the counties complete and all
but six Official: Smith, 72,256;
Blease, 55,9OS; Jennings, 2,4OO;
Pollock. 1886.
The total vote ran to 132,2OO.
about 5000 less than the total vote
for governor in 1912.
In other state races than the CUB
ernatorial contest there were no
changes from the forecasts made
from earlier returns.
For lieutenant governor, A. J..
Bethea of Columbia and B. Frank
Kellep of Bishopville will make the
second race. Mr.. Bethea has a lead
of about 4,300 over Mr.. Kelley. The
vote for lieutenant governor: Bethea,
6O,25S; Kelley. $3.50; j. A. Hun
ter, 20.5O4; II. M. Hamer, 14,444.
In the race for comptroller gem
eral, A. w. Jones, the incumbent, has
won over James A. Summersett by
1925 to 46,03O.
For denomination as adjutant gem
eral w. w. Moore has won over M.
@. VILLAS by $4,000, the vote stand
ing: Moore 1896; Willis, 51,444.
Thomas H. Peoples has been re-
nominated for attorney general over
A. G. Brice by 5,729, the count be-
ing: Peoples, 67,750; Brice, 62,O21.
In the six cornered race for rail
road commissioner Frank w. Shealy
and G. ID. Fortner have emerged to
make a second race, the advantage so
far being with Mr.. Shealy, who is
about 1000 ahead of his rival. The
vote: Shealy, 32,1O1; Fortner, 28,-

TURKEY MAY JOIN
IN EUROPEAN WAR
Considers Declaration For Aus
tria Sand Germany.
CABINET is WAVERING.
England and Russia Are Endeavor-
ing to Keep the Unfortunate
Country Neutral.

Washington, Aug. 26.-Tension is
SO acute in Constantinople that dip
lomats there fear Turkey may at any
moment be drawn into the general
European war on the side of Ger
many and Austria.
A strict censorship has been placed
on newspapers in Turkey which are
now controlled by the military and
are being used, according to diplo-
matte dispatches here, to create a
strong pro-German feeling.
The Turkish cabinet is wayerIne
between a declaration of war and the
preservation of neutrality. Diolo-
matte representatives of the various
powers are in constant conference
with the government Officials, Eng
land and Russia endeavoring to keen
Turkey neutral. The German am
bassador it is understood. has init
mated that while Germany wishes
turkey to remain neutral he he
lieves the Ottaman empire should
mobilize to prevent an invasion bv
Russia.
Feeling is most acute over the en-
try into the Dardanc1les of the Ger
man cruisers. Goeben and BresIaut
Great Britain, Russia and France
ten days ago requested that If these
ships were purchased by Turkey the
crews should be sent to either Ger
many or Austria and promised them
safe conduct.
The British government is obsery-
ing these incidents, whit much dis
favor and the situation has been ag-
gravated by the inability of several
English merchant ships to pass
through the Dardanelles and return
after the grand vizier had given the
requisite permission. Subordinate
officials disobeyed the instructions in
way as yet unexplained.
Great Britain has let it be known
that If the Gocben and Breslau enter
the Mediterranean with German
crews aboard, they will be fred on bv
the English fleet.
Neither Great Britain nor Russia
has assumed a threatening attitude
automatically, hoping to persuade
Turkey to remain neutral A few
days ago the Russian ambassador
was requested to cease using the
wireless on Russian vessel in the
harbor. He acquiesced
Developments in Tukcy were gen
orally discussed today in official cir
cles. The Turkish ambassador here
had a long conference with Sectre-
tary Bryan, chiefly concerning an
alleged statement with which Amer
lean Ambassador Morganthau had
credited in some published reports.
Later Mr.. Bryan issued a statement
saying the story that Mr.. Morgan
thau had predicted a massacre of
Christians was untrue.
Mr. Morganthau's recent telegram
1T is understood, reported conditions
as much relieved, though a week ago
there was some apprehension over
the position in which Americans
might be placed if the war extended
to Turkey.
The cruiser North Carolina will go
to Constantinople with gold for
Americans. Many Jews in Palestine
are destitute and an appeal for funds
has been made to Jewish charities i'm
America. Temporary relief for
Americans has been provided per
sonally by Mr.. Morganthau. He has
raised $4,000 by subscription. but
has advised the state department ad-
ditional funds are necessary.
