those who propageated them, the Ger

Rome, Dec, 16.--The Turco- German
threat against Egypt is becoming mor'
grave daily in the belief Of military mef
here. The construction Of railway
line from Damascus to the Egyptian
frontier has been pushed with extraordi-
nary speed, it is stated, and it il
expected it viii be finished by February,
there being only 80 miles more Of track
to lay before the Sinai peninsula is
reached.
This railway, which has double tracks,
is considered by military men to permit
Of the concentration of 100000 men in
one month, together with the necessary
supplies and ammunition at the Egyp-
tian frontier. About 100000 Ottoman
troops, commanded and drilled by Ger
man officers, already have been coneen-
trated between Alexandretta, Alleppo
and Home. 1t is stated that army en-
gineers are laying miles Of tubes for
carrying drinking water across the des-
ert.

ers are going to allow themselves to be

Mrs. Kelleher discovered the fire, which
broke out in the woodshed of the Hills
studio on the second floor, being awak-
ened by her sleeping room becoming filled
with smoke. She hurried to the wood
shed, and, seeing the good-sized blaze
there, returned to her rooms and, donnng
an oyercoat over her night clothes, made
hasty exit from the building. She
succeeded in carrying some personal ef-
fects with her and her rooms were dam
aged only by smoke and water.
The alarm was rung in from box IS at

laid quickly, one being played from the
