EUGENE DEBS
GN AT IT AGAIN

Chicago, Nov 26 (By the Associ.
ated Press).-Eugene Debs, leader oi
the Socialist party, made his first pbu.
tic speech since leaving Atlanta pen.
itentiary here today and was. given ar
ovation that delayed the start Of his
address for more than an hour.
Hundreds stood outside the hall TO,
bours after fire guards had limited the
audience to 1000 people.
Jean Longuet, French Socialist, in
whose honor the meeting was held
was overshadowe,i by the demonstra.
ton accorded Dcbs. Huge baskets OF
red roses tied with red ribbons were
given Debs by his admirers, and after
the meeting the Socialist national
committee was forced to conceal Debs
in a small committee room for nearly
an hour to keep the waiting crowd
from carrying him away. With tears
coursing down his cheeks, Debs beg
sed the committee to let him 60 out
and shake hands with the crowd and
once he forced his way to the plat
form despite the protests that his
strength was unequal to the strain.

Gypsy SMITH MEETINGS
CLOSED LAST NIGHT

Gypsy Smith preached his closing
sermon In the Tabernacle last night
to q packed house. There was a con-
gfegation numbering perhaps 1000
the tabernacle being filed to over
fiowing. The final sermon was one OF
the greatest he has preached In Union.
The text was chosen from the incident
OF the rich young man who came to
Jesus asking: "What must I do to
be savedi" The text was: "He went
AWAY" The speaker was at his best,
and drove home convincingly the great
lessons which he drew from the gospel
narrative. The young man had money,
ffiends, prestige he was moral, highly
cultivated, moved in the best circles.
But all these things did not satisfy.
He came to Jesus to find satisfaction,
but went away. He did not receive
the blessing he sought because he was
not willing to eIthrons Jesus Christ
In his heart. When the test was put
to him, "Go, sell all that thou hast.
and come and follow Me-" he could
not measure up to the conditions.
No went away. So far as we know, he
never came back. He r.sade his choice

ALLIES WILL
FOLLOW AMERICA

Laussne, Nov. &c (By the Associ
ated Press).--The position of the
United States on Turkish capitula
lions will probably be found to be not
essentially different from the French
and English positions, particularly the
French, when the time comes to dis
>uss that delicate topic. To avoid
wounding Turkish national pride a
movement is under way to abolish the
distasteful word "capitulat:ons" alto
gcther as applied to Turkey, which
dislikes anything that savors of a
public admission indicating surrender
Of national administrative rights.
All the great powers will undoubt-
rdly follow Americas lead in insist
ing that foreigners accused of crime
shall still come to trial before for.
e,gn courts in Turkey and that for
Ggn courts in Turkey and that for
c:Gn, or at least mixed tribunals, shall!
have jurisdiction in property disputes
involving foreigners.
1t seems likely that France will
propose the establishment of juurid-
cal guarantees as substitute for
capitulations touching on juridical
privileges enjoyed by foreign resi-
dents: France has large Moslem
population in her north Africa colo
MES, who were loyal to France in the
great war, and she has logical rea-
sons for insisting upon equitable
treatment for the Mohammedan popu.
iation at this moment when Turkeys
political status IN the world is being
definitely fixed at Lausanne.
Like the United States, however
France probably will rot submit *
having her citizens tried by Turkish
courts, which are essentially founded
nn Moslem laws.
When it comes to the taxation o.
foreign property and the fixing of Gus
toms tariff, France probably also will
be found ranged beside the American
position. France will undoubtedl.
propose some plan whereby foreig,
property in Turkey will be obliged t.
contribute some revenue to the Turk
ish state and an impartial interna
.ional examination of the Turkisl
customs tariff problem, like that &C
corded China as the outgrowth of tn,
Washington conference.
Paris, Nov. 81 (By the Associated
Press).-A separate treaty between
the United States and Turkey is being
considered at Lausanne says Temps

gests this as a possible subject to the

LAST OF GREEKS
QUIT ADRIANOPLE

Adrianople, Nov. 25 (By the Asso-
ciated Press) The last of the Greek
sendarines left Adrianople Tuesday.
9he town was left in the hands Of the
French. Immediately on the depar.
tnre of the Greeks the city became a
mass Of red with the flag of Turkey
predominating. The entire popula-
tion threw away their hats and re-
placed them with the fez. All the
Greek inscriptions on shop windows
in the streets were erased or smash
cd or thrown into the streets. The
new governor, Gen. Tapir Bey, en-
tered the city Friday at the head of
200 Turkish officials, three battalions
Of gendarmes and a squadron Of
cavalry. The populace thronged the
streets to welcome the Turks. There
were numerous arches erected 70:
then, to pass under. The troops pre-.
sented arms as Tapir passed.
! ESpir himself planted the Turkish
aill1t on thhses sgovsrafuent .buifdingT mid
was warmly acclaimed by the crowds.
AT the same time . large Turkish
flag was run up ON the minaret of the
celebrated mosque Of Sultan Selim.
Tapir passed in review before the
Tnrkish military detachments AMI
then proceeded to. the Sultan Selim
mosque followed by the crowds. There
a Turkish woman journalist delivered
a. a@patriotic speech to which the gov
Srnor responded.
Many portraits Of Mustapha Kemal
Pasha draped In red were to be seen
on the balconies. The whole serene
Of decoration was red and the cor
respondent Of the Associated Press
felt somewhat out Of style in his
black hat. N
The French commandant Of Adrian
ople, Colonel Uoar, accompanied by
hts officers, officially called on Tapir
and turned over to him the city and
also eastern Thrace. The day pass
ed quietly. Untoward events were
entirely lacking.

FIVE DEAD in
BURNED HOUSE

w. Smith, oO, grocer, his wife, the;l
two year old daughter, Ruby, AMI
their niece, Mrs. Define Burchfeld
and her son, Charles, 13, were found
dead here early this morning, the
house in which they lived burned
ovec their heads.
Ren Burchfield, al, husband of tn
dead woman, was arrested at Johnson
City this afternoon and is being held
in connection with the crime. He
protests his innocence but officers say
his shirt and trousers were covered
with blood when he was taken.
The crime was discovered about 4
o'clock this morning when the fire de-
partment was called to the combina-
ton residence and grocery store Of
Smith on State street. When the
flames had been extinguished the
charred bodies of the five were found
in the ruins of the structure. They
evidently had been beaten to death
with an axe or some other heavy i'm
plement and the house set afire to
hide any trace of the crime.
Burchfield and his wife had been
separated, and he is said to have
made threats against her. The po.
lice say he came to them and said his
wife was contemplating divorce an
he would rather see her dead than
to have any one else have her.
Burchfield was employed in res.
taurant here. He had been in Bristo
about 60 days, coming here from
North Carolina. The family previ
ously had lived at johnson City
Tenn, and in West Virginia.
Officers are investigating tonight
reports that Smith had yesterday sole
piece of property and was supposed
to have had large sum of money
on his person. This was not found
Burchfield had about $50 on him wher
arrested.
Mrs. Burchfield's son was by a pre-
vious marriage.
Local authorities announced to
night that Bur, htield would b.
brought here for hearing tomorrow
afternoon. He was brought here tn
afternoon to view the bodies in a L.
cal undertaking establishment.
The man showed no concern Will,
looking at the charred remains of hi.
wife. He calmly chewed gum through
the ordeal. From here Burchfeld
was taken to the Sullivan county
Jail at Blountville.
AS soon as the bodies were discoy
cred drag net was thrown about
the city. Every road was guarded
by police and deputy sheriffs.
When arrested Burchfield said that
he planned to go to West Virginia
and that he went to johnson City t.
see a sister before leaving this sec
ton. Police say his shirt and trous
ers were spotted with blood. Chief
of Police D. l.. Heaberlin said to
night that Burchfield when arreste
was wearing a pair of trousers be-
longing to Mr.. Smith. Other new
evidence is said to have been worked
up this evening by the police but was
not made public. Funeral services
for the five victims will be held to
morrow afternoon in a local under
taking parlor. The bodies have beer
claimed by relatives.
