time to lower lifeboat. Later they
were picked up by a trawler and
brought into port.

LONDON. August 7-"Greece will not

made by Premier Gounaris to dele
cation Of Macedonian deputies who
| asked a statement relative to the pur-
| poses of the government" says a Reu-
ter dispatch from Athens.
In the negotiations which have been
conducted by the allies Of the quad
ruple entente with Bulgaria in an effort
to induce her to enter the war on their
side. she has insistently demanded that
she be ceded that part of Macedonia
which was awarded to Serbia at the
close of the Balkan wars. She also
has sought to obtain at least por-
tion of the Macedonian territory which
came under the Greek flag in the~same
way.
Was Turkish Province.
Macedonia was Turkish province un-
til the close of the Balkan war The
region embraces a medley of peoples,
the chief elements being Slavs, Os-
manlis and Greeks. The Slays are Bull
garians and Serbs.
The statement attributed to NJ. Gou-
naris is significant in view of the fact
that the British, French. Russian and
Italian ministers at Athens called upon
him Wednesday and made united rep
situation. Their purpose was to gain
the assistance Of Geeece.
Similar representations were made
yesterday by the representatives of the
same nations at Nish to the Serbian
premier. This was regarded as the
second step in the attempt to bring
about Balkan agreement SO that Bull
garia, Rumania and Greece may be
number among the allies.
Would Outweigh Warsaw's Loss.
The reconstruction of the Balkan
League, the key of which is Bulgaria,
and its cooperation with the allies
would far outweigh in Importance the
: loss of Warsaw and would materially
hasten the defeat of the Germanic DOW
ers, says the Daily News in an editorial
today.
The newspaper takes hope in the con-
ference at Nish between the ministers
of the quadruple entente powers and. the
Serbian premier in an endeavor to bring
about a Balkan agreement.
"Strat logically" says the Daily News
Bulgaria is in a commanding position
Her neutrality imposes like neutrality on
both Rumania and Greece, while her in

powers would lay Turkey at their mercy"
Urges Justice Of Demands.
The editorial urges the justice Of Bull
garia's demands for the territory inhabtt-
ed by her people. but which was ceded

MINISTER SOLON MENOS

More American Marines to Be Sent
to Island-Three Possible Can

Solon Menos, the Haitian minister,
called at the State Department today and
urged the necessity of giving some definite
assurance to the Haitian people that their
sovereignty would not be impaired perma-
nently by the American occupation.
While the minister declined to discuss
the purpose of his call, it is said he re-
ported that until the local officials are
cities there will be continued danger Of
outbreaks in the interior.
In addition to Dr. Bobo, it was learned
that NJ. Cauvin, former government
official and lawyer, and possibly Presi-
dent Dartiguenave of the senate will be
presidential asprants when parliament
meets tomorrow to elect an executive.
More Marines to Go.
An additional regiment of $50 marines
was ordered to Haiti yesterday to re-
inforce Rear Admiral Caperton's men
now maintaining order in Cape Haitien
and Port au Prince. They will sail
from Philadelphia next week on the
cruiser Tennessee, and Col. l.. W. Wal
Ter. L. S. NJ. c., commanding the ad-
vance base marine detachment, will be
placed in charge of opera tions ashore
in Haiti, under the direction of Ad

guns and four three-inch navy field

The following announcement was
made at the Navy Department last

"In order that the duty of the men in
Haiti may not prove too trying under
tropical conditions. it has been decided

will embark on the u. s. S. Tennessee

ton, commander of the cruiser squad

The Tennessee, recently returned from
duty in Europe, now is at New York load

To Elect President.
A meeting Of the Haitian parliament
will be held tomorrow in Port au Prince
to elect president. Resolve Bobo, leader
of the successful revolution in northern
Haiti. is thought to be en- route to the
capital with 500 soldiers. His represent
atives have promised Admiral Caperton
that the troops will disarm on their ar
rival. This Is taken to mean that Bobo
expects to be elected to the presidency
without further fighting, his chief op-
ponent, Gen. Blot, a supporter Of the
overthrown government, having left the
country.
A report last night from Admiral
Caperton said the Haitian gunboat Paci-
fque had arrived at Port au Prince and
had been boarded by American marines.
The dispatch, sent at II am. yesterday,
said order prevailed, and made no mention
of the seizure Of the office of the port
and national palace, which took place,
presumably, later in the day.

Prominent in Public Life.

Senior Machado has been prominent
for years in the public life of Portugal,
having served his country as premier,
provisional minister of foreign affairs,
minister of the interior and minister to
Brazil. He has been considered the
foremost man in the republican party
and before the overthrow of the mon
archy was regarded as the logical
choice of that party for the presidency.
In January, 1908 he was accused of con-
spiracy against the crown, but the
charges were never proved.
When King Manuel II was dethroned
and the republic proclaimed October 5,
1910, after a short revolution, Senior
Machado was appointed minister of
foreign affairs In the abinet formed by
the provisional government. The fol-
lowing year he was a candidate for the
presidency, but notwithstanding his
prominence was defeated by DR.. Man.
uel Arriaga, whom he now will suc-'
ceed. Four months after his defeat he
was appointed minister to Brazil. In
February, 1914, he was asked to form
a new cabinet. and was successful in
his efforts, but he and his ministers re-
signed ten months later.
The new president, who is sixty-fve
years old, formerly was professor of
philosophy in Coimbre University, but
was ousted from his chair because he
joined the anti-clerical movement. He
is an excellent speaker, and during his
public career has been regarded as
strongly pro-British
Once Minister to United States.
One of the interesting stories re-
garding Senior Machado Is that he
served as Portuguese minister to Wash
ington in 1900 and 1901 under the name
of Marquis de Santo Thyrso, but was
recalled because he made a prema ature
announcement to his country of Presi-
dent McKinley's death, which resulted
in Lisbon sending messages of condo
lence four or five days before the Pres
ident died. After his recall, according
to the story. he dropped the title. which
was of papal origin. and resumed his
family name.
The President of the republic of Por
tugal is elected by Joint vote Of both

LOOKING TO PROTECTION
WHEN EUROPEAN WAR ENDS
Progressive and Republican Leaders
Agree on Need Of Tariff
Changes.

Retention of the organization Of the
was accomplished at a meeting Of bull
moose leaders in Albany yesterday
This was the work Of George w. Per-
kins, who set out upon the task imme-
diately when he heard of efforts to
swing the bull moosers as an organiza-
tion back into the republican ranks.
A significant paragraph in the dis
patch announcing the action Is this:
THE conference opposed return to
the republican party. but there were
no attacks on those progressives who
have dropped the bull moose party as a
lost cause and returned to the repub-
lican fold.''
Weapon Against Democrats.
Interpretation of this is that Mr.. Per-
kins simply was intent upon holding
the organization intact so as to pre-
vent. in event Of its disintegration. any
of its members going to the democrats
1t Is known in Washington that both
Mr.. Perkins and Col. Roosevelt desire
the defeat of the democrats in 1915, the
defeat to be accomplished by a repub-
lican party headed by men who will
not be Objectionable to the progress
sives.
Col. Roosevelt stated a few days ago
that he would remain technically a
progressive, but took pains to declare
| that he had no criticism to make Of
those progressives who returned to the
republican party. By the action of Mr..
Perkins and with the known attitude
of Col. Roosevelt. there is still retained
an organization which Is Of some con-
sequence in New York state and which,
1t is believed. will be used at the right
time pJ Its leaders as a weapon against
the democrats.
Looking to Wars End.
In his address to the conference, Mr.
Perkins pointed out the condition
| which is a subject Of deep concern to
all thinking men in New York, as was
described In recent dispatches to The
Star from New York; that is, what
shall be done to protect American
economic conditions when the European
war is over. ..
Mr.. Perkins said: I'VE have a large
amount of Europe's gold which Europe
must get back, and her easiest way
will be to put her soldiers to work
manufacturing goods which she can
sell to us. under the. present Wilson
tariff, cheaper than we can make them,
with our wage scale. She will get
back her gold" His remedy Ia read
justment Of the tariff through a tariff
commission.
Has G. o. P. sympathies.
The old-line republicans are in SYM
pathy with Mr.. Perkins' Views on the
dangers to confront this country after
the war is over.

is keenly alive to the prospective sit
! uation, announced in a speech in Phil
adelphia night before last that he will
advocate recession from some of the
