Determined to Resist the De-
mand to Allow Munitions
to Pass to Turkey
KING HAS CALLED
BALKAN CONFERENCE
Rumanian Troops Are Already Con-
centrated on Borders in Readiness
to Fight with Allies = Greece May
Remain Neutral.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-Italy's declara-
ton of war against Turkey is appar-
emily having an almost immediate eff |
feet on the Balkan states, which have
been debating which side they will take
in the conflict.
The relations between Italy and Ru-
mania have been very intimate forl
years, and the opinion is expressed
here that it is probable, especially inI
view of the threatening attitude of
the Germanic powers toward RumaniaI
because of her refusal to allow ammu-
milton to pass thIbugh her territory
that Rumania will join the quadrupleI
entente.
On this subject a Reuter- despatch
from Sofia says:
Private advices from Bucharest
state it is feared there that Germany
has sent an ultimatum to Rumania re-
garding the right to transport muni-
tions of war for Turkey through Ru-
manian territory. The Rumanian cab
met Is firmly resolved not to grant this
permission.
A large number Of ears laden with
war material have been held up at pre-
deal, village near the Tomos Pass,
| Gin the Transylvanian Alps, between
| Rumania and Hungary, where it is
reported Rumanian troops are conccn-
| trating. Troops also are massing at
| Jassv, about 200 miles northeast of
| Bucharest, and the petroleum regions
| have been heavily garriSOned.'
The Rumanian reception of the an
I nouncement of Italy's declaration of
war is thus described in a Bucharest
/ despatch to the Geneva Tribune:
| "News Of the italian declaration OF
war against Turkey reached here at s
o clock last night. There was much en-
| thusiasm throughout the city The
| king at once called 4 meeting of the
/ cabinet, and the Italian minister was
/ present.
"sThe king will hold conference

| Balkan states. Saturday he signed sew

! Bulgaria is still awaiting the reply
of Serbia to the suggestions of the en-
tente ministers that Serbia cedc Mace
| donna to Bulgaria, while Greece is like
lv to declare her future policy wher
| the chamber meets this week The
opinion is expressed in diplomatic cir
cles here that it is significant that NJ
| Nenizelos, who always has been friend
ly to the entente. has decided to as
sumo, in addition to the Greek premier
l'ship, the office of minister of foreign
affairs.
With the inclusion of italy anon,

states may consider that the time i

The continued retirement of the Rus
sian armies seems to have little,
any, influence on the situation. tn

critics that the victory of the entent

increasingly likely would more tina

Road Repairs and Maintenance

cost of such re-surfacing Is not yet
known.
Cost Of Repairs.
The average cost for repair and
maintenance Of 1900 miles of high
way in Connecticut, Massachusetts,
New York, New Jersey and Rhode
Island for the year 1912 was about
$500 per mile. A large part Of this
money was expended for bituminous
resurfacing and bituminous surface
treatment. There is some question
whether the expenditure correctly
measures the average cost of repair
ing and maintaining bituminous-
macadam roads.
In the State of New York, however,
for the years 1911 and 1912 the av-
erage cost for repair and mainte-
nance was 1924 per mile upon a total
average Of 1851 miles. The annual
cost Of repair and maintenance on
Massachusetts, State roads for the
years 1910, 1911 and 1912 was, re-
spectively, $642, SCAT and $676 per
mile for about $50 miles. For the
most part these figures for New York
and Massachusetts, represent the cost
per mile of resurfacing with bitumin-
Gus material and Of maintaining BIZ
tuminous-macadam and water-bound
macadam roads by surface treatment
with bituminous material.
1t is clear, therefore, that 500 per
mile Is not an excessive estimate at
present for the annual cost Of all re-
pair and maintenance Of bituminous-
macadam roads.

Kings and War.

A proud King dreamed in his gilded
chair;
He dreamed-and sighed, for the lands
were fair!
A King said Veal" 1t was but a
BREATH
And a million men marched toward the
gates Of death.
A million wives gasped as their hus-
bands sped;
A million babes starved as their
fathers bled.
A King sought gain In the north and
south
And a million men marched toward
the cannon's mouth.

BOOSTING FOR
ALPINE COUNTY

Grant Merrill was in Gardnerville
Monday on his return from a visit to
san Francisco and Sacramento and
while on the coast incidentally took
in the Exposition. However, the big
fair was a second consideration with
him. lie was working for the inter
est of his county and succeeded in
getting the Highway Department of
California TO purchase rock crusher
for use on the roads of Alpine. After
getting the crusher cinched, he went
back and applied for funds with
which to operate the crusher and got
a substantial allowance. He then
visited the California Fish and Game
commission and secured an increase
of 10000 trout fry for planting in Al
pine county, and the fish have already
been received and planted in the np-
per streams.
Mr.. Merrill also spent two days
at the headquarters of the California
Automobile Association in san Fran
cisco. assisting in giving information
TO tourists who are arranging to Yssit7
Lake Tahoe and this section. Many
of them are easterners and are in
search of interesting side trips.
While there Mr.. Merrill made ar
angements with the association FOR
the distribution OF several thousand
pamphlets dealing with the roads of
Alpine county. The little book con-
tains l6 pages and carries several
halftones of mountain scenery, togeth-
cr with a road map 10x12 inches.
These books We're printed and bound
in the RecodCourier job Office and
were prepared by Mr.. Merrill This
is the best kind OF advertising that
Alpine can get and her citizens are
TO be congratulated upon their efforts
10 attract auto tourists to their
mountain wonderland.

L|NEmAN HAS
CLOSE CALL

Monday forenoon while Guy Ander-
son was disconnecting power wires
that had been strung for the carnival
company. he came in contact with
wire carrying 40 volts. He was on
high pole in front of Howard Bros
store and hundred or more persons
witnessed the accident. Sitting on a
eross-arm, he lost his balance and to
prevent falling grabbed the first thing
in reach that being a wire carving
440 volt circuit. One arm caught
over dead wire and one leg was
over a cross-arm. As soon as the
juice struck him he yelled to shut off
the power and the next instant was
unconscious and was held in his
dangerous position by the grip of the
electric power. Mr. Anderson prob
ably owes his life to the thoughtfull-
ness of the carnival electrician, who
climed a high pole in another part of
town without linemen's climbers and
pulled the plugs on the transformer
Practically at the same moment, the
telephone office caught the power
station and the switch was thrown at
that place. In either instance their
work was quick enough to save the
young man from being electrocuted
rope was placed about Anderson s
body and Gene Phillips, manager of
the telephone company, placed the
young mans body on his arms and de-
scended the pole with the aid of his
climbers and the assistance of the
men with the ropes. Physicians were
on hand and Immediately dressed the
burns on Anderson's hands He was
also burnt under the arms.
This was the first accident of its
kind to occur here and when men and
women rushed into the street and
gazed on the withering body of Gny
Anderson high in the air and the
thought that they were powerless to
aid him. made ore than one person
sick and not feH had to walk away
to keep from fainting.
When the power was shut off and
the young man began to show signs
of life, tears of gladness stood in the
eyes of every person on the street
and Guy received the congratulation
of a great crowd at his miraculous
escape from what seemed would be
certain death.

black potted trout fry, for planting in
The streams of Alpine and Mono
counties. Eugene Hunt, special rep
resentative of the Fish Commission ae-
companied the shipment to Minden
and was assisted by three assistants.
VIM. Maule, Supervisor of the Moo
Forest, and Grant Merrill of Wood
lords, made arrangements for their
receival at Minden and had enlisted
the assistance of several auto owners
of this and Alpine county for tran
porting the fish to the mountain
streams. The greater portion of the
consignment went to Alpine and the
rest was planted In the West Walker
river.
For many years, practically no
effort was made to restock the streams
in this vicinity, but since the automo-
bile has become the mode of convey
ance, the number of campers who an
nually visit the mountain districts,
has been materially increased and il
