SOUTHAMPTON, N. Y. Oct. 14-Capt.
William Bennett of the Coast Guard sta
ton here sighted whale three miles at
sea early this morning. If the big fish
appears again tomorrow he intends to
recruit whaling crew and go out after
it. Peeping through his telescope from
the Coast Guard watch tower Capt. Ben

a hundred feet long
The stranger apparently moved out to
sea soon after being seen by Capt. Ben
nett, as he has not been observed since,
although Coast Guardsmen and volun-
teers kept sharp lookout all during the
afternoon. Capt. Bennett thinks the
whale may be the same one that caused
such a commotion here last winter when

bilious whaler into the water.

main loyal to the Greek army was
made to-day by Gen. Plastiras, just
returned from the armistice conference
at Mudania. II am not yet reconciled
to the abandonment Of Thrace," he de-
clared Greece won Thrace at a cost
of thousands of lives. She must not
abandon it lightly. Thrace Is the eye
of Greece. Shall the Greek people be
forced to pluck out their own eye? Our
army must remain to protect Christians
from the Moslem sword"
Gen. Nider, Commander in Chief OF
the Greek army, speaking to-day on the
evacuation OF eastern Thrace said:
1.-THE Greek army cannot afford to OPP
pose the allied troops who are due here
next week. but 1t is the sacred duty
of the soldiers to remain until every
refugee is safely across the new boun-
Diary line. l must bow to the will of
Nenizelos and the Allies. but 1t will be
a most painful duty to me to give the
order for retreat
Every available train is being used to
move refugees and civilian property
from Hodosto. Beginning Sunday the
army will commander all available
transportation for the evacuation Con-
siderable disorder is reported among
civilians and soldiers In the interior.
while from refugees come complaints Of
tobberies committed against them.

SAMARA, Russia, September g.
The writer has witnessed the some
what melancholy reduction OF Ameri-
can relief here. Following the de-
cision of the administration to cur
tail it's work. a drastic cut was made
in this district Recently the Ameri-
cans were feeding 100000 adults and
1000 children. Now the feeding of
adults has ceased entirely and the
number Of children given food has
been reduced to $4,000.
In many centers where the new
harvest makes the old scale of help
unnecessary the reduction was OBJ
viously advisable. but Samara is in
4 different position.
The province is threatened with a
famine next winter because the area
cultivated was small. owing to the
shortage of draft animals. and most
of the crop was ruined by drought
and locusts. The people are in a
more desperate position than they
were last year because all the re-
serves are now gone.
The city of Samara, normally one
of the most prosperous centers in
eastern Europe, looks today more
woebegone than any other city the
correspondent has seen. The people
are badly dressed and desperately
poor. Many of the stores are closed
and there seems little of anything
left. Great crowds of children. many
accompanied by their mothers. were

DEATH TO BONUS
APPEARS LIKELY
SENATE THREATENS COMPEN-

Of PRESIDENT TO GOVERN
COURSE IN UPPER HOUSE.
VETO WOULD KILL.

Washington, Aug. 20.-Despite
the appreciable number Of senators
who are moved by clamor and the
approach of the elections, the bonus
for former soldiers is in jeopardy.
A majority of the members of the
senate today voted to postpone the
consideration of the bonus bill un-
til Wensday. This was taken to
mean that if the issue was postpon-
ed until after the elections the
bonus bill would be beaten.
The debate OH the bonus bill will
be short or extensive according to
revelations from the White House
If the president promises to veto
the bill the vote may be had soon.
If he hesitates the vote will be
postponed. If he agrees to veto, the
indications are that it will be i'm
possible to pass the bill through the
senate despite the veto. In other
words, the situation from the stand
point of those clamoring for a
bonus as reward for vneir service
to the flag is precarious. This is the
general opinion following an un-
official canvass of the senate to-
night. In the direct vote, not more
than 80 senators will oppose the
bonus. But more than 80 will refuse
to support the bill over and against
the veto of the president.
According to the unofficial poll
some of the ablest Southern sena-
tors are against the bill. These i'll

QUALIFICATIONS FEDERAL
TROOPS TO BE PREPARED TO
AID IN TWO STRIKES IF MEG
ESSARY.

Washington, Aug. 2O.-In order
to be prepared for any emergency
that might be made upon it in the
present industrial situation, the war
department is rechecking the occupa-
tional qualifications of the enlisted
men of the army and compiling in
formation making quick action pos
sible in the event that federal troops
are called upon for duty in the coal
or rail strikes.
AS a part of the departments gen.
eral policy of preparedness, corps
commanders are understood to have
been requested to advise officials
here how many men under their COM
mand have had experience in rail-
road work and in what particular
branch of railroad service each is
most competent. Similar information
regarding other trades is understood
to have been gathered by the depart
ment in other cases in the past.
Thus far no requests for federal
troops have been received by
the department in connection with
either the coal or rail strike, but
Secretary Weeks and his advisers
have taken the position that should
a request come they should be pre-
pared Immediately to place all per-
tinent information before the presi-
dent. The order regarding qualifca-
tions of enlisted men in railroad work
was said to be based wholly upon
this desire for preparedness and to
indicate no change of policy on the
part of the federal government.
