MosLEMs ARE DENIED CLAIMS
FOR PLEBlsclTE IN
THRAcE.
.BULGARS DISTRUSTFUL
BULGARIAN DELEGATION IN
sISTS ON OUTLET TO
AEGEAN SEA.

Lausanne.-A review of the first
week of the Lausanne conference
shows that Turkey met signal defeat
in her first demand. namely. for n
plebiscite in western Thrace, which
she maintains is overwhelmingly Of
Turkish population. The Turks, how
ever, have placed on the diplomatic
board proposal which is affording
great embarrassment to all the powers !;
they want neutral belt marked out
along the entire European frontier
from the Black sea to the Aegean and
they want the powers to guarantee
that 1t shall be kept neutral.
This unquestionably is n move cal
culated to secure peace in the Balkans,
but Europe hesitates to take over d.
rect responsibility concerning Balkan
territory. where so many wars have
been fought and where the national
aspirations" are still u powerful fac
tor for dlscord.
Similarly Turkey asks that the
Aegean islands which lie near her
Anatolian coast be demilitarized and
an autonomous form of government
the sea of the neutral belt proposal,
suggested for the Balkans.
When 1t comes to settlement Of
the straits treaty, Turkey will un-
doubtedly demand additional strong
guarantees against aggressions by
Christian Europe. Ismet Pasha ap-
pears to be looking up us an astute
statesman.
The Bulgarians are angry over the
virtual decision to make Deaghatch
merely free port instead of a sover-
elgn Bulgarian commercial center. The
Bulgarian delegation has issued a
broadside to the press condemning
Greek objection as voiced by VeniZe-
los it insists that an outlet for Bull
garia to the Aegean sea would be eff
fective only If its access were assured
through territory either Bulgarian or
autonomous, and declares that any
other solution would be palliative. en-
failing dangerous consequences with
respect to Bulgarian trade. 1t con-
cludes:
Bulgaria, though defeated and hu-
inflated, has ut least the right to re-
fuse this gift, which reminds her too
much of the old tale of the Danaos,
so thoroughly in conformity with the
Hellenic traditions of the days of
Troy"
| In other words Dedeaghatch, with
out absolute possession, it is consid-
cred, would be left-handed present
| of doubtful value in the event of new
Balkan intrigues or conflicts.

The news already had spredu ny tho
time he reached there; news travels
fast in a small mining camp. Fair
child went to the hospital, and to the
side of the cot where Harry had been
taken. to find the doctor there before
him, already bandaglng the wound on
Harry's head and looking with con-
cern now and then Mt the pupils of
the unconscious mans eyes.
"Are you going to stay here with
hlm?" the physician asked.
"Yes." Fairchild said. In spite OF
aching fatigue and heavy eyes. The
doctor nodded.
"Good. / don't know whether he's
going TO pull through or not. or
course / can't say-but it looks to me
from his breathing and his heart nc
ton that he's not suffering as much
from this wound as he is from some
sort of poisoning.
We've given him apomovphine and
1t should begin to take effect soon.
We're using the batteries too. fou
say that you're going to be here?
That's help. They're shy nurse on
this floor tonight, and I'm having a
pretty busy time of 1t. I'm very much
afraid that poor old Judge Richmond's
going to lay down his cross before
morning"
Hes dying?" Fairchlld said 1t with
n clutching sensation ut his throat.
The physician nodded.
There's hardly chance for him"
The physician went, and Fairchild

between concern for his faithful part
ner and the girl who, some time In
the night, must say good-by forever 10
the father she loved.
Judge Richmond was dying. What
would that mean? What effect would
1t have upon the engagement of Anita
and the man Falrchild hoped that she
detested? What-then he turned at
the entrance of the inferno with the
batteries.
"If you're going to be here all
night" said the white-coated indi-
vidual, It'll help me out lot If you'll
use these batteries for me. Put them
on at their full force and apply them
to his cheeks, his hands, his wrists and
the soles of his feet alternately. From
the way he acts, there's some sort of
morphine poisoning. We can't tell
what 1t is-except that 1t acts like n
narcotic. And about the only way we
can pull him out is with these appli-
cations"
The interne turned over the bat
teries and went on about his work,
while Fairchild, hoping with his heart
that he had not placed an impedlment
in the way of Harry's recovery by not
telling what he knew of Crazy Laura
and her connections. began his task.
Midnight came and early morning.
With dawn, the figure on the bed
stirred slightly and groaned. Fair
child looked up. to see the doctor just
entering.

Fairchild watched him as he boiled

white pellet preparatory to sending
resuscitory fluid into Harry's arm.

he asked at last.
"Yes." Then the doctor stepped
close to the bed. i've lust closed his
eyes-forever."
Ten minutes later, after another ex-
animation of Harry's pupils, he was
gone, weary, tired figure, stumbling
home to his rest-rest that might be
disturbed at any moment-the reward
Of the physician. AS for FaIrchild, he
sat long time In thought, striving to
hnd some way to send consolation to
the girl who was grieving now, strus.

that he cared, that he was sorry. and
that his heart hurt too. But there
