In Identical terms the opinion that the
pffertlve nppllcutlon of article 23 of the
Hcilln irratv Is urgent.
It hems to he assumed that the Pnw
piu will itral with Turl.c.v more mildly
than the allies would and the lattir will
receive a reiterated warning to beware
of the conseciuenies of forcing war
Turkey Is well aware that the Jealousies
nmoiic th" Powers themselves make It
Impossible for them to use force In her
case If she Ignores their udmonltlons.
and any nppeaiance of coercion would
only render the eatnsttophe certain. For
this reason It Is anticipated that the
diplomatists at Constantinople will don
the velvet clow whea approaching the
Porte.
In the mennwhll tin one Is Inclined
to lay bis odds na peai e All reports
Indlcnte that thi allies are sceptical
of Turkey's promise of reform, and
Incidents In hr past history are re
called to show that this sort of diver
sion 1? the favorite feature of Ottoman
policy in the face of a dilemma. Tur
key, tliev s.iv, wants time to complete
Iter mobilization, and the offer of le
fnrmsi which need not. necessarily, ma
terialize. Is to create a delay, enabling
Turkey to get her iirmy in trim.
Moreover. It Is feared that the war
like passions are too deeply stirred
alike in Turkey and In the countries
of the allies to permit the Governments
lo give way without danger to them
selves The Governments of the allies,
piinlculatly. may think the anger of the
Powers Is more easily faepd thnn thp
furious icyentmcnt of their subjects if
tboy fall to exact the reforms to en
fotce which they mobilized their armies.
Hu'saria especially Is committed to
the enforcement of reforms, and It Is
genriaii bei.eved that any backdraw-
ng now will i o.t King Ferdinand his
llirone and perhaps his life. It is nn-
luestlonable that the Hulgais are burn
ing to light the Turks and tho Turks
are burning to fight the Hulgars.
The Porto points out that Its decision
to institute reforms Is not a sudden re
solve, but Is the outcome of more than
f) month of deliberation, and the ques
tlon indeed has been considered much
longer than that. It remains to.be
proved whether If the decision of Tur
key Is carried out It will satisfy the al
lies, as the law of 1SS0 does not ap
proach autonomv for .Macedonia,
amount. ng merely to administrative de
centralization, which leaves the sov
ereignty of the Sultan unimpaired.
Conflrnf itlnn is still lacking of past
reports of lighting on the frontier. The
Dully Mm! to-day has a brief despatch
from Pelgraile dated, somewhat unin
telligibly. "Wednesday." which says that
a serious encounter hns occurred on the
Turkl3li-.Montenegrln frontier.
The Tlmrs'a correspondent at Pod
porltza. In -Montenegro on the Albanian
frontier, states that the Catholic Al
banians In Mallssla refuse the term
offered to the Moslem Albanians In Kos
kovo. Esad Pasha. In command of the
Turkish troops, therefore attacked the
Christian tribesmen and threatens to
annihilate the Mallssorl tribe. That
newspaper's correspondent ut Salonlca,
telegraphing under date of October 0.
states that lie has been Informed that
the danger of war between Oreece and
Turkey is considered obviated. Two
Greek steamers which were arrested by
Turkey were allowed to 'depart nt noon
on Sunday.
Hut In spite of all this optimism
war Is not by Any means out of tho ques
tion. The Targticht Umin'scha.u of Herlin
says, on what authority it is not known,
that Turkey will deliver an ultimatum
to the llalkan States this morning. This
will demand, sas the (Jerman paper,
that Ilulgarla send Imck her mobilized

Athens, Oct. 7 Turkey's promise of

received here with scepticism. Orek
public opinion demands guarantees, and
the Government has been urged to stand

this on the ground that the military

Sercli for the 1300,000. which the Na
tional Hank of Cuba sent br registered
mail fo the National Park Bank on Sep
tember 27. but which never reached its
destination, centred yesterday on Havana,
the bank itself, tho post oftlceat the Cuban
capital and the steamship that carried
the mall from Havana to Key et
All the work of the New York post
office inspectors and secret service men
generally only tended to establish that
the registered pouch arrived intact on
October 1, that it. had not been tamperod
with, that a National Park Bank pack
age was in it. that It showed no signs
of having been opened, but that un
deniably the money wat- gone. It van
agreed that the entire affair constitutes
about the most baffling international
mail mystery the Department has dealt
with in many years. There was less
uneasiness also because it developed that
the entire sum was in $10,000 bills and a
German insurance company Is tho only
loser. Acting Chief Post Office Inspector
Harber said yesterday:
"Krery piece of mail put In tho reg
istered pouch at Havana for which re
ceipt was made out in duplicate has been
accounted for; it was all present in the
bag when it arrived at this office on Octo
ber 1 The package consigned to the
National Park Bank was duly delivered
and receipted for. What that package
contained or did not contain this office
does not know.
"I had not been Informed that $2 or
$:oo.nno woj in it. The package was de
livered and subsequently we were notified
that there should have been JIOO.ooo."
While Mr. Harber did not say so. it
became known that his service between
the time it received the first information
and yesterday had followed the registered
pouch in its course from the port of Ha
vana to New York. It had come across
to Key West and had been transhipped
with other registered pouches to a postal
car which was not opened until it oamo
Into the city. No one could have opened
the package on its entiro trip without
breaking tho lock or cutting the hag, and
noither had been done. As a matter of
fact the United States postal authorities
are not inclined to believe that the job
is up to them and they are waiting to
hear from their Cuban confreres,
Maurice K, Ewer, cashier of the Nation
Park Batik, reiterated what he said on
Sunday, that the bank had only the in
formation or advices it had received from
the National Hank of Cuba to go by. It
had compared the contents of the package
received with the advices and had discov
ered that the 1200,000 was missing, where
upon it had notified the Havana banking
institution.
Itepresentatives or the National Bank
of Cuba, which is regarded as a strong
institution with American backing, de
clared yesterday that they are not out a
cent by ihotriinsaction. Their shipments
outside and inside the bunk are insured
by the Mannhuim company, one of the
largest insurers of International currency
shipments in the world,
"Our bank is fully protected by this
insurance," said J. i . Monahati, manager
of the New York agency of the hank at 1
Wall street. Advices received assure us
that the money, which consisted of twenty
ItO.ODO bills, was duly committed to the
oare of the Havana ostal authorities. Our
financial roionsibll!ty ooosed tho mo
ment ihe money was thus dlsfiosed. When
we were informed that it hud not arrived
we notified the Mannheim company, which
riecessaiily told Ihe mstul authorities,
and, we assume, employed detectives,
Our bank Ih wholly protected."
Tho insurance company retained the
Hums agency to help out in thn search,
according to a notice sent broadcast yes
terday. It read as follows,
The ivon.ooo sent by Ihe National Hank of
Cuba to the National Park Hank of New
York, which disappeared sometime between

Any bankers, brokers or other persons
to whom anv of those bills may he tendered

William .1 Hums National Detective Agency
or snv of its branches.
Neither Ihe detectives nor the insurance
companies believe that any attempt will
lie mane to spenu tno nig dims, ii would
be impossible to do this anywhere In the
world, They do expect, however, that
within a reasonable time some person in
terested will receive a letter which will

I.os'ihi.s', Oct. 7. The House nf Com
mons assembled more or less resignedly
to-duy for the autumn session, which
has begun to be regarded as the In
evitable annual Infliction. It was evi
dent at the outset that the anxiety over
the Ilulkons overshadowed , domestic
matters, of which the report on thrTI
tunic disaster was placed as the first
business on the programme.
Premier Asipiltli wns absent, owing tn
a slight chill, and this lefl the temporary
leadership to Chantllor Lloyd George.
Hefore the House took up the Titanic
report several uuestlons were asked.
J Among other things the Unionists"
wanted to know whether Winston
Churchill's scheme for ten to twelve
separate local Parliaments for the
United Kingdom was sanctioned by the
Cabinet, Mr. Llody (leorge read Premier
Asqulth's written noncommittal answer
and he pointed out that Mr. Churchill,
when he announced the scheme at Dun
dee, said he spoke for himself only.
Further questions ns to whether Pre
mier Asnulth approved the plan only
drew Inarticulate smiles from both Mr.
Lloyd (Jcorge and Mr. Churchill.
Sir Kdward Orey's statement on the
Dnlkans was listened to with great Inter
est, but many of the members left after
the Foreign Minister had concluded and
the debate on the Titanic report began
with n smnll attendance. Leslie Fred
eric Scott, t'nlonlst member from the
Liverpool Exchange division, set forth
the views of the shipping Interests, stat
ing that the Hoard of Trade's rule call
ing for lifeboats for all the persons on a
vessel would compel many steamers tn
carry such n load of lifeboats that they
would be unseaworthy.
The debate turned mainly on tho
Hoard of Trade's proposals which are
bused on the Titanic catastrophe and
accusations of the board's negligence
toward general rules before the disas
ter. The night Hon. Sydney Huxton,
Presldeat of tho Hoard of Trade, de
fended the board and promised adequate
consideration of the suggestions made
by the various members during to-day's
discussion. The debate wos then ad
journed. In the course of the evening notice
wns given In regard to the Govern
ment's proposals for closure on the
home rule bill. These proposals pro
vide for twenty-five days discussion of
the bill during the committee stage, live
days for the report stage nnd two days
for the third reading or passage. The
Government's proposals will be discussed
by the House on Thursday.

to be disposed of at this session of the
House of Commons. These are Irish
home rule, the disestablishment of the
Church of Knglnnd In Wales and the
proposed election reform. The Liberal
Government supports all thesn meas
ures, The Conservatives came prepared to
fight tooth and nail against all three
measures. Already at the start they
had flf ty-fi pages of amendments to
the home rule bill on hand, simply to
delay It. The Liberals will resist de
lay. however, hy drastic application of
the "guillotine," or Parliamentary rules
which limit the time for debate, and
the "kangaroo," whereby the majority
disregards frivolous amendments.
As to the Welsh bill, the Church of
F.nglnnd is reckoned politically ns
a part of the aristocracy a "mn
chine" for retention of power,
and Hie proposal to rob the
Church of Its official standing in Wales
Is ns offensive to the Urltlsh "ruling
class" there as home rule Is to the
so-called "ruling clnss" In Ireland.
The election reform bill seeks to
abolish the system by which the aris
tocracy has multiplied tho number of
Its own votes about ten times and de
prived the working classes of approxi
mately 1,000,000 votes, as charged bv
the advocates of the changes now pro
posed. ,
The Liberal tenure of office, how
ever, Is precarious. Counting Its own
members of the House of Commons, as
well ns the forty-two Labor members
nnd the seventy-six Irish, the Govern
ment hns a majority of 110, but the
Labor men were ready to secede at
any time on slight provocation nnd the
Irish members were only Interested In
keeping the Administration In office un
til home rule should be finally as
sured. AMERICAN DIES ON LINER.

Indianapolis, Oct 7 A sensation sur
passing that caused hy the District. At
torney's denunciation of H. S. Hook in
on Saturday came to-day in the dyna
mite cases When tho District Attorney
announced at the opening of the court
that Kdward Clark, business agent of tho
Cincinnati local of the ironworkers,
wanted to change his plea or not guilty
to one of guilty, As the announcement
was mado every eye in the court room
was levelled upon Clark, who rose and
walked toward the Judge's stand.
"Do you plead guilty?" asked .lodge
Anderson.
"I plead guilty." said Clark.
The prisoner was separated from the
forty-five other defendants and taken
to Jail to await sentence.
('lark pleaded guilty to five counts
of conspiracy and fifty counts of being
a principal to the actual illegal interstate
shipment of dynamite and nitroglycerine
Clark was business agent and president
of Local Union 44 of the International
Association of Bridge and .Structural Iron
Workers from January, loos, to July, 1911.
His activities in promoting explosions,
Ut. Miller asserted, were carried on
through letters written hy Prank M.
Hysn, president of the union, und tho
McKamaraa. An Ivory handled umbrella
bearing the initials "K. C." which was
found in the wreckage of a dynamited
bridge at Dayton, Ohio, Mr. Millers aid,
led to the disclosure that Clark actually
had caused the explosion. He used Hie
umbrella to protect the dynamite from
tho rain and then left It behind. Clark'
was also charged with carrying out plots
against employers of non-union labor.
The District Attorney continued his
statement to the jury to-day nnd had not
completed it when court adjourned this
afternoon. Ho took up tho connection
of Philip A. Cooley or New Orleans with
thn dynamiting operations. Ho said that
Cooley was a member, of tho executive
board when 11,000 a month was set aside
for the use of J. J, MoNaniarn in paying
dynamiting expenses,
