HIBERNIAN RIFLES
 TO HAVE FAIR TO
 GET NEW UNIFORMS

Members of Co. F. Hibernian Rifles, Pf which Capt. Richard Riley is con1fnanding officer. are planning for fair to be given at Eagles hall September 6 to 20 inclusive for the purpose of raising a fund for the purchase of new uniforms and equip ment.e The company has a member ship of about 40 young men who are enthusiastic in the performance of military drill and evo1utions, but have been hampered by lack of suita- bIe equipment and uniform. It is hoped that their friends will respond generously at the coming fair and a sufficient sum will be realized to ac- complish the object for which it is held.
 Plans call for an entertainment each evening during the continuance of the fair, some of the well known entertainers of the city having been secured, and there will be dancing each evening as well as other amuse- ment provided. A number of valua- b1e- articles will be disposed of during the four evenings the fair is to con tinue. A souvenir book will also be pany, pictures of the committees and officers, and other interesting matter as well as the program for each, even ing.
 Tickets for the event are already in the hands of the members and their friends and are meeting with ready sale. and the members of the company feel hopeful that sufficient money will be realized to allow for the purchase of the new equipment desired.

Men Who Elected Poincare President
 Receiving Medals

Paris, Aug. 27-The medals com memorating the parliamentary con gress that elected Monsieur Raymond Poincare president of the French Re public have only just been distributed to the deputies and senators who participated. Every deputy and sen ator gets one with his own name en- graved in relief along with that of Monsieur Poincare. There is no eff1gy of the president as republican tradi-r tfons oppose anything that might sug- gest accession or recall the times of kings and enperors. A curious cir cumstance is that the nanaes of the deputies and senators who were against the election of Poincare areI linked with that of the President in a. way to leave the inference to pos terity that they voted for Monsieur Poincare.

NATIONAL BANK HAS GREAT
 SUPPLY OF GOLD


 Berlin, Aug. 27-Dr. T. stoyanoff, director of the public debt admins tration of Bulgaria. who is now in Berlin and has arranged here for a. loan of $5o,eo0,o0O with German and Austrian banks. says that the Bull garian National Bank now has a. larger gold stock than ever before. It amounts to $12s00o,000 besides nearly $6,oOO,OOo in silver.
 The currency of the country, how ever, is at a discount of about 25 per cent. in trade with the outside world; but pr. Stoyanoff attributes this, not to any unsound financial or banking conditions. but to the fact that Bulgaria is now unable to find export markets It cannot sell its agricultural products abroad, ber cause the markets of Austria and Germany are closed through the Serbian blockade. of the Danube. in one directions while in the other, namely. by way of the Mediterranean, Bulgaria's only seaport, Dedeagatch, is closely blockaded by the English. From this years crops the country will have about SOO,o0e> tons of wheat and rye for export and about 200, ,000 tons of Indian corn. Dr. Stoyanoff evidently hopes that Aus tria and Germany will open up the Danube in order to get Bu1garia's surplus grain.

ment being carried prominently in every big newspaper, that, in addi- ton to President Wilson and Secre- tary Garrison, some scores of private citizens had been asked to go to the ~Plattsburg camp, where it was ex- pected that they would speak to the men. Among the names mentioned d in addition to my own were those of ex-President Taft, Mr. Gompers, and John Mitchell, which happen to re- member.
 It is, of course, impossible that Sec retary Garrison can have been ignor- ant that we were asked, and, if he de- sired General Wood to notify us in ad- vance what we were expected to say or leave unsaid, it was clearly his duty to direct the Gen accordingly. When the War Department, after three weeks public notice, made no objection to my coming, they estopped themselves from any right to criticise General Wood because I was coming or because I did not submit my speech in advance to the Administration for approvaT
 ''I am. of course, solely responsible for that speech, and until yesterday General Wood had no more idea than Secretary Garrison what I was going to say. In the speech not only did I never mention the President, but never mentioned the Administration l spoke purely of the nation, of the people of the United States
 "I spoke on the assumption that the men who pay their own expenses in order to go to this camp /are citi- zens deeply interested in the welfare of. their country. who know that the greatest value of this camp lies, not in the months training to each of 2,0O0 or 5000 college students and business men, but in the object lesson afforded in teaching our people what this na- ton should do for all her sons by teaching them in time of peace how to do their duty by the nation in time of war
 'If the Administration had dis played one-tenth the, spirit and en- ergy in holding Germany and Mexico to account for the murder of AIneri- can men, women and children that 1t is now displaying in the endeavor to prevent, our people from being taught the need of preparations to prevent the repetition of such murders in the future, it would be rendering a. service to the people of this country.
 General Wood issued orders that attendance upon my speech was not required of any man, that it was op- tiona1 to come or, not, orders which at once established the fact that he had no responsibility for the speech and that attendance upon it was pure ly optional. It was held outside the line of tents. and half the audience was made up of men and women from the surrPundtng country.

CONSTANTINOPLE
 HEARS SHEAF OF
 IDLE WAR RUMORS

ConstantinopIe, Aug 27-As in stances of some of the remarkable war rumors af1oat in the Turkish capital, the Associated Press corres- pondent found that the following had circulation and credence among large number of Greeks and Armen- Turks:
 That American engineers were en- gagged in digging a canal across the narrow part of the Gallipo1i Penip- sula; that the Ang1o-French allies had built and put into operation 8. railroad 25 kilometers long, and that the Allies were now busy rebuilding the Greek. towns along the Darda- neIIes and the Aegean Sea, which were destroyed during the various bombardments. Lastly, that the French and English would be mas ters of the Dardanelles, Sea of Mar mora and the Bosphorus within A days.
 There are, of course, no American canal builders anywhere near the Dardanelles;. there is no such rail- road as the Allies are said to have built; the Creek towns are in ruin as before; and the 14-day period a1- lowed for the penetration of the straits is recurrently prolonged.
 The rumors mentioned are not the most extravagant that one hears in. Constanf1nople; they Eare merely those heard most often and seem ing1y believed by a large number of the Greeks and Armenians
 Seeking enlightenment as to the reason for such an odd rumor as the presence of American canal diggers, Ire correspondent learned from a Greek resident that the Allies had engaged American engineers to dig
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1915-08-27

the supposed canal because they had such success in canal building at Panama, and that the object of the canal through the Gallipoi Penin- sula, was to afford a. channel for the Allied fleet to reach Constantinop1e without having to pass the Darda- nelles' forts,- whose strength, no one here, even Greeks and Armenians, longer doubt.
 The suggestion that such a canal would be the task of several years was altogether lost on the man who believed the rumor. -t
 The report that the Allies have built a, military railroad from Sid-e1- Bahr to a point 25 kilometers north is even more widely believed. The truth is that the Allies would have to run the railroad in circles in order to make it 25 ki1ometers in length unless it penetrated the Turkish lines.
 An attache of the. American Elm impressed with these reports of the railroad building, in fact, that even he besieged the Associated Press correspondent for the truth.
 The activity of persons who circu- late such rumors as are calculated to falsely impress the populace with thes success of the Allies gives the military authorities considerable trouble. The penalty for such an of fence may be as much six years Imprisonment and a fine that may mean the condscation of all the prop erty the offender has. But even this drastic measure does not make the rumor mongers more careful. Almost daily a dozen of such cases are dis posed of with varying results. A few nights ago a meteor fell near Con stantinople, the career of the ceIes- tia1 wanderer coming to an end with a vivid flash of light and a, sharp ex- p1osion. The next day-it was assert ed by rumor that a British aeroplane had thrown bombs upon the build ings of the Sublime Porte.
