This incident was the result of Bull
garian aggression. which has become
very active during the past few
weeks. Bulgarian bands having many
times crossed the Greek frontier and
attacked the Greek villages. These
attacks had become so violent and
frequent that, in July, the Greek gov

the attention OF the powers to the
situation. and the Greek government
has also repeatedly protested directly
to Bulgaria.
In spite of these protests. the Bull
garian bands have continued their
violence, and Greeks residing in Bull
garia are continually prosecuted. An
official cable received today states
that all Greek houses in Bourgas.

Lawyer.

NEW YORK, August 5.-william
J. Fa!lon, the criminal lawyer on
trial in federal court on charge of
jury bribing, today continued to de-
velop defensive evidence which he
said would prove that he was a VIC
tim of conspiracy.
Aaron Lewis, a handwriting ex-
pert, was the first witness called. A
Photographic copy of a letter sup
posed to have been written by Ernest
Eidlitz, former employe of Fallon. to
Victor Watson, an editor of the New
York American, and containing
statements tending to show a con-
spiracy against Fallon, was identified
by the witness as having been
written by Eidlitz.
Earlier in the trial. Eidlitz. who
was government witness, denied
that he has ever written such state
ments. Watson, called yesterday by
the prosecution, also refused to ad-
NIT that the Photographic copy was
a true copy of the letter written to
him by Eidlitz. He said he was not
certain what became of the original
letter.
After examining the signature OF
the Photographic copy and Eidlitz' S
signature written in court. Lewis

PRIVILEGE PROTESTED
Colored Residents at Odds Over

The colored residents of the Dis

question of whether night bathing
should be permitted in the. municipal
swimming pool on Howard play
ground
Following receipt of petition from
number of colored organizations,
asking that the pool be opened in the
evening for adults, Commissioner
Oyster and Mrs. Susie Root Rhodes,
supervisor of recreation, decided to
give night bathing in the pool a
trial.
Now comes a letter of protest from
a committee representing the min

asking that the pool be kept closed
after dark. Commissioner oyster

Grain-GroWing States.
b. the Associated Press.


NEW YORK, August 5.-Chairman
William NJ. Butler of the Republican
national committee, after comforting
with party leaders here yesterday.
disputed La Follette's claim to the
Northwestern States
Il do not think there is going to be
any La Toilette sweep in the North
west he said. Il don't get it l was
out there for a week or 10 days, and
did not get any such IMPRESSION
Chairman Butler expressed conf
dence in the success of the Repub-
lican national ticket and said not
only the words of leaders, but the
comments of average citizens through
the country form the founda ton of
his belief
There is an honest desire to secure
place on the bandwagon." he add
ed, which is encouraging, to say the
least, for places on such a vehicle are
not generally sought unless the trav-
cling is good.
Our campaign at present may not
be quite spectacular. but I cannot
say that causes me any regret From
the beginning there has been a gem
eral harmony as to our campaign
and TO our platform. which has al
lowed Us, ! might say, a little more
time for the ordinary mechanics than
a campaign usually requires"
Wheat Price TO Aid.
Regarding the situation in the
Northwest Chairman Butler predicted
that the increased price of wheat
would have a great deal to do with
the success of the Republican party.
There has been marked change out
there" he said. "and the farmers are
looking forward with a hopeful attitude
toward the future"
When newspaper man reminded him
that during the Summer of 1895 the
Creasing, however. before the preSiden-
tial election, with the result that many
farmers voted the Republican ticket
Chairman Butler said:
oh, yes. l remember. and ii looks
like were going to do it again this
time"
Commenting on the American Fedora
tion of Labor's Endorsement of La Fol
lette's candidacy, he said:
Labor Endorsement Not Strong.
I have not got it into my mind that
there was anv direct Endorsement of La
Toilette by the Federation. But what
ever the Endorsement might have been,
Ine laDoT people VIII Continue 10 sep
arate and choose candidates as they
have always done"
During the day Chairman Butler an
nounced the appointment of Helen Farick
Boswell to assist Representative John
2Q. Tilson. who is chairman of the
speakers bureau of the eastern cam
pagn headquarters.
After a stay of about a week Chair
man Butler expects to go to Washing
