The boundaries which those chronic
disturbers Of the peace. the Balkan
states, had before the recent world
war were established to them by the
treaty of Bucharest signed at the
Roumanian capital on August g, 1913,
by representatives of the said states
and Greece. That treaty closed two
wars, practically, one in which the Bal
kan states were united in fighting Tur-
key and one in which they were fight
ing among themselves. By 1910 the
Bulgar and Greek bands in Macedonia,
which had been quite as likely to mas
sacre each other as to massacre the
Turks, had got together for the pur-
pose Of devoting all their efforts
against the common enemy. Then
trouble broke out in Albania and the
Serbians sent their irregulars to help
the Albanians against the Turks.
1t was the same old story of the Bal
kans being "aflamle" again. In March
Of 1912 Greece, Bulgaria, Montenegro
and Serbia came to an understanding,
agreeing to bury their mutual animosi-
ties temporarily and combine against
the Turk. ROumania stood aloOf. The
Porte. alarmed promised reforms in Al
bania and Macedonia. Turkey also an
nounced that she would told army ma
neuvers near Adrianople.

The great powers began to "diplo-
matize," to prevent a war. Germany
and Austria declared that the status
quo in the Balkans must be main
tanned, and Austria mobilized her
army. But the wild nations Of the
Balkans had got out of hand, and
little Montenegro. on October 8, 1912.
declared war against Turkey. On Oc-
tober II Bulgaria, Greece and Serbia
issued a joint declaration to the same
effect. A Bulgarian army of 100000
men occupied Mustapha Pasha on Oc-
tober 10, Kirk-Kilisseh on the oath and
invested AdrianOple on the 9th. Two
days later was fought the sanguinary
battle Of Lule Burgas. the chief battle
Of the war, with front of % miles.
In this battle the Turks lost $4,000
killed and wounded and 5000 prison
ers, while the Bulgarians lost $1,000
killed and wounded. The Turks now
fell back upon the Tchatalja forts, the
last line Of defense for ConstantinOple.
Meantime the Serbians had swept
into Macedonia and were driving the
Turks before them with heavy losses,
while one part Of their army was sent
to join the Greeks at Saloniki and an
other detachment to help the Montene-

Drautzberg to him.
Jones had been q star trusty-he

Private Concerns Printed In Prison
Printing Office - Confession
Reveals Amazing Plot

Chicago.-An amazing story Of for
gerry and counterfeiting. carried on by
a band of 25 men in the federal prison
In this city through the arrest Of sew
eral Of the participants.
The arrests, which were made after
six weeks work by Peter Drautzberg
and w. G. Harper, assistants to Capt.
Thomas I. Porter, chief of the Chicago
district of the United States secret
service, turned up the entire conspir-
acy.
The forgery, from which perhaps
$1OO,OOO has been realized through the
use Of many names of prominence, in
volved the printing of 1000 subtreasury
checks, calling for 500 each, as well
as checks on private concerns. such
as the United Fruit company of New
Orleans. The printing Of these was
done in the prison printing office At
Fort Leavenworth.
Also Forged Letterheads.
In order to get paper on which to
print the private checks the prisoners
had to obtain supplies Of I'VE best bank
paper. So they wrote for samples to
the leading supply houses Of the coun-
try.
On a large number of the phony
checks the name &c. Shelton Williams"
was written. These checks passed
more readily than any, it being hastily
assumed by the recipient that it was
drawn at the instance Of John Shelton
Williams, high treasury official.
The denouement came through the
arrest of an innocent man, a former
soldier who had been a prisoner, but
who, it developed, had taken no part
in the swindle. This youth was seized
on the complaint of st. Louis busi-
