CO[ON|ALS UNCHECKED
BY TURKS, SAY BRITISH
Tribute Is Paid to Great Bravery Of
Moslems Along the
Dardanelles.

LONDON, July "A further report rec
garding the Dardanelles operations
claims that the colonial troops have not
been checked in their efforts to advance.
but that they have been used merely to
keep the Turks on their front too busy
to send reserves to that portion Of the
line where the Angio-French troops made
an advance Of 1000 yards.
Battle Of Achi Baba.
The British press representative in
the Dardanelles sent a dispatch by way
of Alexandria. dated from the latter
place Friday. in which he describes the
battle of Achi Baba- This began with
an allied advance June 4, and the cor
respondent says still continues.
The correspondent again emphasizes
the difficulty of the allied advance
against IAN almost impregnable natural
fortress" and pays tribute to The
tenactiy and bravery of the Turks.
THE force drawn up against the
Turkish army. which. notwithstand-
ing casualties that must already
amount to 10000, is fighting valiantly
and desperately. realizing that when

Constantinople is at hand.
Difficulties Of Advance.

front the allies. gain Of twenty yards
in Gallipoli may fairly be likened to
gain of 500 yards in Flanders. and the
500 yards advance June was equal
in it's way to the battle of Neuve

The correspondent tells Of the British
attempts agains the Turkish limo June
21, when the Turkish casualties reach

lasted from dawn to dark on the long

some gains for the allies.

stones, sticks and fists. At the end of
the day some 600 yards Of Turkish
trenches had been taken. One trench

While no official confirmation can be

1t has been stated on reliable au-

1t is understood the Sayville plant is

Alleges Attempt to Becloud Issue.

The district attorney charged counsel
for the defense with "a logged and per-
sistent effort to becloud the issue" He
stated that the copy of the indictment
which former Justice Wright. in his ar
gument on behalf of the defendant. had
shown to the jury. and to which the
former justice referred as having been
loosely drawn. was a copy Of the origi-
nal. which had been furnished to coun-
sci for ths defendant for their conven-
fence. He said that the apparent
changes by scratching out certain
words in the Indictment used by the
former justice were clerical errors
made In copying the indictment for
the use of the defense.

Closing Arguments Made To-
day by United States
Attorney Laskey.
LOCAL BROKER ACCUSED
OF EMBEZZLING SAT, 900
Government Asks Conviction Under
Indictment Alleging Appropria-
ton of Mrs. Barklie's Checks.

The case of John William Henry,
former head Of the bankrupt firm OF
Lewis Johnson & Co., which has been
on trial since June s, before Justice
Siddons, in Criminal Division 2, was
submitted to the jury this afternoon.
following an exhaustive charge by JUS
tice Siddons. Mr.. Henry Is accused in
eight counts of an Indictment with
embezzling checks aggregating $4,000
sent to his firm by Mrs. Isabel A.
Barklie of Wayne, Pa, for stock specu-
lation.
The government. represented by
United States Attorney Laskey and AS
sistant United States Attorney Archer,
contended that the accused never .pur-
chased any stock as directed by Mrs.
BarkIie, but appropriated the checks
TO his own use. Former Judge Wright
and former Assistant United States At
torney wampler, for the defense.
claimed that the checks were no longer
the property of Mrs. Barklie after she
had sent them to Lewis Johnson & Co.,
and that Henry could not have en-
bezzled them. They also urged that
Henry executed the agency. if any ex-
isted when he purchased Mexican
petroleum stock as testified to by the
local representative of Hartman &
Co, following the receipt of the first
checks from Mrs. Barklie.

q. S. Attorney Ends Argument.

United States Attorney Laskey ended
this morning. the argument for the
prosecution. telling the jurors they
should have little difficulty in reaching
a verdict of guilty. For what else can
YOU say of man." said the prosecutor
who receives $4,000 in checks and
converts them to his own use at time
when the evidence shows he did not
have a single share of Mexican petro-
leum stock?'
While both attorneys for the defense
had cited the Bible to the jury, Mr..
Laskey was content to quote the home
ly philosophy of Abe Martin.
You are all acquainted with that
homely philosopher. Abe Martini" said
Mr.. Laskey, land 1 must tell you that
Abe says the old-ttme trust officer used
to skip out. but now he stays on the
job and calls it frame-up.'" The
prosecutor claimed the saying was ap-
propriate to the case on trial.
The United States attorney scored the
statement of Attorney Wright for the
defense that Mrs. Barklie was taking
a fier in stocks and was gambling"
II that were true. Mr.. Laskey said, then
Henry was not the high-class reputable
banker which the defense had attempt
ed to prove him by character witnesses,
but was a gambler. aiding and abet-
ting a woman in risking $4,000 on a
bucket-shop transaction" He ex-
pressed surprise that Attorney Wright
would make such a statement before a
jury, and remarked that a lowyer who
would present testimony of the high
character of his client and then show
that he was a gambler sis not entitled
TO hang tin can on the anatomy of
any one"

GEN. TURB|DE DENIES
HE SUPPORTS HUERTA

Gen. Eduardo Iturbide, former gov
ernor Of the federal district Of Mexico,
in which the capital of Mexico City
lies. and who served under the Huerta
and Carbajal regime, has made public
a statement denying that he has sided
with Gen. Huerta in the present Mexi-
can complications. Gen. Iturbide's
statement Is as follows:
LAS Gen. Huerta said. have no con-
nection whatsoever with him, nor could
I have. because we follow very differ
ent roads. He believes in a dictatorial
government. imposing and sustaining
itself by force of bayonets. and which
would call for elections when peaceful
conditions permitted. In fact, we have
had his own sample of a dictator and
of what he understands by elections,
and / am dumfounded that he should
still insist and again complicate mat
tiers at the very moment when things
seemed to be shaping themselves to-
gether.
Thinks Dictators Bad.
81 do not believe in dictators. They
are bad, even at their best. A man with
all the indispensable qualities that
make a good dictator comes only once
in century. and when he does he ends
by refusing to turn over the govern
ment, thus starting trouble again.
"Of course. Mexico needs a strong
man, or rather strong government,
and plenty of bayonets, Just as a corn
field needs sharp tools to kill the weeds
and protect the crop. But to be really
and permanently strong it must SYM
bolize by its components and by its acts
the aspirations not only Of armed
groups but of the whole nation. 1t
must be representative and respectful
posing the nation, which in normal
times manifest themselves through the
vote.
But as we cannot have immediate,
nor much less effective. elections Under
present conditions, the only practical
way, If sufficient common sense and
patriotism prevail, is to bring out
trasitory government, pledged to the
land and other popular reforms, SUM-
GENTLY representative of all the social
forces to inspire confidence and obtain
the frank support of all honest Next
cans within and without the factions
that is to say, of fifteen millions instead
of only one hundred thousand Mexicans
And in order TO obtain success, even
with such a compromise government.
factional demarcations must disappear,
so that all true revolutionists from
every group. as well as other represent
new rallying point. leaving all factional
intrigues, personal compromises and
other burdens and entanglements be-
hind.
I'm other words. reorganize under the
banner OF reforms, with a clean slate,
in conjunction with representative Mex
leans from all sides.

in the private desk OF Henry in his
private ONCE. The prosecution declared
that the entries there made were for the

ton which Henry knew he would some
day be called to account for
Referring to the so-called fictitious"
account sent to Mrs. Barklie by Henry,
he called the attention of the jury to
it's purport. He declared 1t meant to
inform Mrs. Barkiie that Henry had
purchased stock for her. had kept it
ever since. had charged her interest on
the deferred payments and had credit
ed her with dividends received from
the investment. Mr.. Laskey asserted
that not a word of 1t was true, be-

that during a portion of the time. at
least covered by the account Henry
did not own single share of Mexican
petroleum stock. He had never even

ANTIQUITY OF
THE BAGPIPES

AS for the antiquity of the bag
pipes there can be no matter of oues-
ton. First there came the chanter,
later the bag; the two combined were
known in Europe and Asia at a very
early period. The Jews knew it, the
Greeks and Romans. The bagpipes
were played in Tarsus 200 years be-
lore Christ at least, and Tarsus is in
ASIA Minor. The instrument appears
on both Greek and Romans sculp-
lures. 1t appears on a coin of the
period of Nero, the last and the worst
or the Caesars. How long since it
was played in India and China can
not be told. Up to the beginning of
the fifteenth century, the Highland
clans were inspired in battle by the
songs of the bards; the pipes arrived
and the clansmen felt the magic OF
their Influence. The earliest exta11t
specimen of the. bagpipes in Scotland
dates from 1409. In 1886 they were
employed in the service of the Catho-
Tic church in Edinburgh. Their age.
