 After Accident

New London, Conn.,, October 10.-Two hundred and fifty passengers on the Bay State Line steamer Tennessee were transferred at sea to the steamer Con- cord of the Colonial line early today after collision in Long Island sound between the Tennessee and the schoon- CT Samuel Thorp.

GERMAN MOVE IN BALKANS WEWEDAS
 VERY SIGNIFICANT
Vars Action Is To Be Transferred to New Thea tire by the TeutOns In
 Aggressive Move

Paris, October 10.--The view is enter tained in diplomatic and other official quarters that the operations in the Bal lsans have assumed new and important significance.
 Germany and Austria, according to this view, are compelled to seek new field for decisive results. It Is conceded that they have gained substantial successes and Poland. Nevertheless Europe, as a whole. is vast theatre of war, and the entente powers are now as one French observer expressed it today. maintaining effective resistance against further German advances through Rus sia to the east. Thus only one weak spot. 1t is pointed out here, Is left-to the southeast, in the Balkans.
 It. therefore. is maintained that the allies having demonstrated their power of resistance in all directions except in the southeast, Germany Is now massing her forces against the one remaining point where she may be able to break through the encircling wall. This is be- lieved to be one of the chief reasons for the extent of the Austro-German movement to force a way to Constanti- nople and the routes leading to the orient as well as for the counter move ment of the allies in landing sarge forces at Saloniki interposing a barrier across this place.
 The Figaro says that the outcome of the new operations in the Balkans com, pares in significance with the historic battle at <Saloniki in which Themistocles finally held back the Persians.

Robbins, gem eral counsel of the road, face trial this week on charge of conspiring to monopOlize the transportation traffic of New England.

Petrograd. October 10.-(Via London.) Telegrams from Sebastopol report that bases for German submarines have been established at Varna and Burgas. Bull garia's principal Black sea ports. It is assumed that it was from these ba ses that the German subma rines reported in yesterdays Russian war office report, approached the Crimean coast, from which they were driven by Russian de- stroyers.
 Many Austrian and German aeroplanes are said to have crossed Servian terri tory in the direction of Bulgaria.
 Six thousand men described as Bulga- rlan reservists from Germany have been held up at the Rounanian frontier on suspicion that they are Austrian and German engineers and officers. The Rou- manian government has demanded that these men be identified.

Bessemer Police Probe
 Will Resume Tonight

Bessemer. October D.--(special.) )--The now famous probe of the Bessemer police department before a citizens committee will reconvene tomorrow night at 7:S0 o'clock at the city courtroom in the Realty building, after a recess of week. The prosecution under the direction of Ben c. Perry, acting for Solicitor Black. will continue to present witnesses
 The reports published yesterday that the defense intended to present no witnesses is entirely erroneous, 1t is declared, but on the contrary witnesses will be present. ed which will bring out surprising infor- nation. In fact, if current report Is to be credited. neither side has really un- covered the heavy. artillery as yet. As is known. the prosecution has had no ln- ming whatever. save i'll the prosecution of witnesses, and what has been brought out by the prosecution has not fulfilled the expectations of those who from the grand jury and other reports had expect cd revelations revealing greater moral turpitude than has vel been brought out. z
 It is currently reported that the defense has a surprise in store for the prosecu- ton, and that at the proper time the citi- zens of Bessemer will be taken fully into the inside workings of the probe, and the object and manner of its beginning will be revealed. All this, however, is merely report and both sides are carefully covering their hole card.
 On the side of the defense there has been no statement made save the card of Mayor Lewis in regard to his alleged conversation as to an attempted burglary at the Frisco freight house. Mayor Lewis will take the stand and will ex- plain more fully than has yet been done the conversation alluded to. The mayor declares that only a part of the conver- sation was brought out on the witness stand, and that had the entire passage at words been quoted 1t would have put an

candidates, but it will cause many special elections or the appointment of judges and chancellors by the gover nor.
 When the bill for the consolidation of State and federal elections was in- troduced in the Senate by Senator B. N. Greenhouse of Wheeler, the lep- islature was imbued with one idea economy. Of course, it is not to be thought or understood that this econ omy propaganda pertained to expen- ses of the legislature itself. But the legislature saw an opportunity to save the State the cost of general elecion every two years by consolidating the State and federal elections.
 The bill was referred to the Senate committee on elections. Senators Flu. trell, Going, Bush, Calvert, Daven- port, Jones. Kendall, Ruff and White constituted the committee, and nearly every member is an attorney. The pAii, CiSht udyS dlteT US lntfO1uCtlOn was returned 10 the Senate and pass- ed. The vote was r to ,2. It. then went to the House. Again it went 0 a committee on elections. Again it received favorable report. The House committee consisted of Repre- sentatives Gray, Caruth, Smith. Rob ertsoa, Davis, Hatley and nuble. It passed the House with comparatively little opposition.
 The day following it's passage in the House an effort was made by Repre- sentative J. T. Robertson of Lee coun- ty to have the House reconsider it's action. He asked for protection for the counties having a predominance of negro voters. The House however. with economy uppermost in its mind, promptly thwarted his efforts.
 Thus the legislature, oblivious of q glaring blunder in the measure, pass ed 1t because it had another feature that was meritorious. Thus the leg islature demonstrated the one-idea way of making laws.

DANGER IN FACE POWDER.

Some preparations of face-powder are the cause of inflammation of the eyes. This form of inflammation oc- curs-from the obvious reasons al most exclusively in women. They will complain that the vision is blurr- ed; that they cannot read or sew for any length of time; that the lids burn and itch, sometimes intolerably, and that rubbing the lids only aggravates the itching. The reason for this is that many of these toilet powders commonly known as "rice powder" or "Poudre de Rig" contain, in addition to the rice powder, other ingredients which irritate the delicate membranes of the eye Sixteen samples of so- called rice powders were recently ana lyzed, and of this number only two consisted entirely of rice; and only six contained any rice at all. Wo- men who are accustomed to using face powder should be careful to select only those preparations which are known to be pure, and free from harm full substitutes. In applying pow der to the face, 1t is much safer to use cloth and rub the powder on the skin rather than to apply it with a puff, as by the latter method the pow
 der is driven upward and lodges on the moist eye-ball The tears change

PLEA FOR THE CHILD.

From Address by FATHER PATRICK
 MURPHY of Texas)
 l contend tonight that there are helpless children whose little bodies are crying out for nourishment-the food they need-and yet the mother cannot cook it for them because that bunch got all the money first! The little child is crying. I'll tell you, and l am sure any doctors in the audi ence will bear me out, when a child Tn the poorer homes is not properly nourished, it's pain is not in the stom- ech alone; there is not blood cell in its little body that is not suffering.
 l maintain that you men who are going to vote wet should think of this: There Is not a blood cell in the child's body that is not crying out to your God against you.
 In your city there are little wasted hands raised up in pleading You will find them in the homes Of your drunk ards. You will see the faces of the little ones, thin, emaciated and telling pethet!cally of their hungry bodies. These little children are praying that you will decide a great question re- gardiess of what you seem to lose by 1t.

IN RUSSIA.
 From July to December there were recorded in Petrograd In 1913 ninety seven suicides, but in 1914 only four teen. The same phenomenon was ob- served in Warsaw, where during the first half of 1914 there were recorded 419 suicides, and during the second half only 205. The reduction of the number of small loans made by the pawnshops, and the increase of the deposits in the savings banks, were among the further gratifying results of temperance. For the first two months of 1915 the savings banks of Petrograd received deposits exceed ing the figures for the corresponding months of. 1914 by one and half milton rubles (f150.000), while throughout Russia the quantity of de- posits increased by hundred billion rubles 10.000O00).

 Why, he's been trying all the morning to prove that 1915 is an un- lucky year. He's manipulated the fig ures 1915 with addition, substrac- tion, multiplication, division and the rule of three"
 What has he found that seems un- lucky?"
 "Nothing, except that when he added 1-9-1-5 together and subtracted the total, 16 from 1915, it left 1S99."
