RAPID|TY IF GREEK OFFENSIVE CONFUSES
 YOUNG TURK LEADERS
Republican A. p. Leased wIre1

ONSTANTINOPLE, June 29 - Mustapha Renal Pasha personally is in general command of the military movements against the Greeks. He is conferring at Baleikesri, which lies midway between Panderma, on the southern coast of the Sea of Marmora, and Soma, with the leaders who are opposing the Greek movement toward Panderma. Ismet Bey, the nationalist chief of staff and a bosom friend of Enver Pasha, is commanding the entire Smyrna front. The nationalists appar- ently have been much confused by the rapidity of the Greek attack.
 There are many indications that the nationalists are concentrating at Guieve, a short distance southeast of Ismid, preparatory to making a big stand there after getting the Greeks scattered over long lines of communi cation.
 The nationaIists are showing a less friendly attitude toward the American relief workers than formerly. Through the port of Mudania, lying on the Sea of Marmora, southwest of Ismid, the American commission for relief in the Near East had been able to keep up communication with many interior re- lief stations through cooperation of the nationalists. Since the British force landed there and has been en- gagged in skirmishes, it is clear that American ships are less welcome and there is danger that the nationalists will close all the Marmora and Black sea ports to American ships.
 All the American women relief work CTS have left Batum for Constantinople The British say they will avacuate Baum within a few days, but they have said this repeatedly during the last three months.

Operators Oppose Closed Shop Plank
 In Mine Contract
[RepubIlcan A. p. Leased wirel

SCRANTON, Pa. June 29.-Meet- ings of the anthracite coal commission this afternoon were adjourned until Wednesday morning of next week To- days session was largely given over to the presentation of final data on the cost of living and wages paid to miners in the anthracite mine region by w. Jett Lauck, consulting econo- mist of the United Mine Workers of America.
 At the afternoon session the pro- posed recognition of the union clause, which was contained in the demands of the mine workers, was discussed al length. The operators intimated that recognition of the union would be granted if the closed shop feature weer taken out of the clause.
 The miners representatives main- tain that because all miners are not connected with the union. differences of opinion arise between the union and non union men, with the result that trouble is experienced not only by the union officials, but the operators themselves. This, they claimed, would be obviated if the closed shop was in effect in the mines.

A HISTORY OF THE CHAU
TAUQUA MOVEMENT

Chautauqua means a lake TO a
few thousand people living in
southwestern New York. Out
side of that section, it means an
idea of tent, with music and
lectures, and fun, and informa-
ton, and study, and Inspiration,
and mental pep.
The Chautauqua idea was born
in the brain of John H, Vincent,
at that time prominent preacher
in the NJ. E. church, who after
wards became a Bishop, and died
a few days ago at an advanced
age, beloved and honored by the
thousands who knew him. Shortly
after he started the summer
school at Chautauqua Lake, New
York, he drew to him a man from
Meadville, Pa. in the parsonage
of DIR. 7. L. Flood. The two men
established large printing shop
for Chautauqua literature, propa-
ganda, and textbooks, known as
the Flood-Vincent Printing Comp
any at Meadville, Pa. DR.. Flood
was nominated for congress, but
was badly defeated by Joseph Sib-
ley, the kite-track man of Frank
lin, Pa.
For years the Chautauqua
press dourished there under the
ownership of Flood and Vincent,
but was finally sold out and the
Spirclla Corset Company started
and developed their business in
the same building. Three years
ago the Spirella people moved
their headquarters to Niagara
Falls. This company is still using
the old Chautauqua building at
Meadville as a branch office. This
little story is merely written for
two, reasons-one is that it comes
first handed, as Meadville was our
boyhood home; the other reason
lis that the coming Chautauqua to
be held July 2 to 5 here may mean
"a little more when our people
know the first days of the move
ment.
