PARIS CONFIRMS BERLIN STORY
REVOLT IN EGYPT-TROOPS
AT DAMASCUS.

PARIS, Nov. 24.-The news receiv-
ed by wireless from German sources,
that the Khedive of Egypt had re-
volted against British control and
plans to return to Egypt with a Tur-
kish army, is confirmed by the Temps,
whose correspondent at Rhodes ca
bles:
1T is common knowledge that, fol
lowing England's refusal to allow
him to return to Egypt, the Khedive
became enamored of the prospect of
re-entering Cairo with a victorious
Ottoman army, which the Germans
and the young Turks held forth to
him. He has organized caravans,
with horses, tents and provisions for
a campaign.
THE Turkish army concentrated
in the vicinity of Damascus is est
mated at 100000 men, but | believe
only 10000 of them possess fighting
value. The Germans, therefore, in
duced the Khedive to march with
them, with the object of stirring the
Arab population to join the army"

BELIEVED MEMBER
GANG OF CROOKS
BETHEL TRAMMlLL OBTAINS
MONEY ON FORGED CHECKS
AT GAINESVILLE.

GAINESVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 25.-
Local authorities are delighted at the
result of Monday nights work, as a
result of which Bethel Trammill is
languishing in the county Jail.
Several days Trammill obtained SIS
from Frank MICRO, having forged the
name of W. d. Martin to a check.
Perhaps, thinking that he had got
ten away with this, Trammill then
got check cashed at NJ. A. STRAIT
tons for ST.. This check bore the
SIGNATURE of Walter Martin. Last
night Trammill got busy again and
passed a check on w. H. Turner for
SIS. To this check the name of G.
IA. Martin had been forged After
taking the check, Mr.. Turner became
suspicious and consulted F. T. Hodg-
son, of the First National Bank, and
he was informed that the signature
on the check was not that of Mr. Mar
tin Mr.. Turner lost no time in no
tifying the authorities, and soon a
net was spread for Trammill. He
was caught on an outbound freight
train by an officer of Guthrie. This
morning Sheriff Welker went to Ken,
lucky and brought him back for trial
| Trammill pleaded guilty to the
charge of forging and passing worth,
less checks in his preliminary hearing
before Squire Smith.
