As to Board's Attitude ._ i Special Dispatch to The Call WASHINGTON*, Nov. _l. —Representa- tives from San Francisco who are here In the Hetch Hetchy water supply con troversy are inclined to be appre hensive as to the final attitude of the advisory board of army engineers who ma.de an examination of the project last summer.

Frey Drops 800 Feet at Mili tary Practice; Laurent Dashed in Squall; Pas senger Escapes RHEIMS, France. Nov. 21.—Two aviators were killed today, one, An drew Frey, at Rheims and the other Sublieutenant Laurent, at Etampes. Frey was known well on both sides of the water. He finished third in the international aviation race in Chi cago In September. He was undergoing military train ing today and had just finished a reg ular practice flight. He stopped his engine at a height of 800 feet and planed down beautifully untH within 150 feet of the ground. Suddenly the right wing of the monoplane shot up and the machine dropped to earth. Frey was badly crushed. The cause of the accident is a mystery, as the aeroplane had been thoroughly tested and apparently was in perfect condi tion. Lieutenant Laurent and Sapper Chenu were making a flight near Etampes at a speed of 60 miles an hour when a squall caught the aero plane as the pilot attempted to make a sharp turn and dashed to the ground with terrific force. Laurent was killed, but Chenu escaped with slight in juries. MEN ON HILL SHOOT UP WEST VIRGINIA TOWN Houses f* Riddled In Bombardment Be lieved Prompted by Opening of New Mine CHARL.ESTOWN, W. Va..

WILSON MAY SET CALIFORNIA ON RECOUNT ORDER * _____ ' Appellate Court Sustains the Bourbons' Contentions; Orders New Canvass in Los Angeles LOS ANGELES, Nov. 21.—Unless some means can be devised to forestall that result. W'oodrow Wilson will carry California through failure of the super visors to certify the returns for Los Angeles county, which gave Roosevelt more than 20,000 plurality. Supervisor R. W. Pridham said to night that there was not enough time in which to make a recanvass of the returns of the 727 precincts in the county in accordance with the mandate of the appellate court issued late today; that there could be no certification of the count just made without disobeying the court's order, and tit at there was insufficient time in which to appeal to the state supreme court. Even should the new canvass be made, Wilson would have a plurality in the state, because the order of the appellate court operates to throw out the vote of two precincts in which the Roosevelt electors had a plurality of more than 200. The district court of appeal handed down a decision in the election contro versy late today which democratic lead ers declare will place California in the Wilson column. The decision was against the method of the board of .supervisors in canvass ing the returns of Los Angeles county. The court held that the tallies should be counted and not the certifications returned by the precinct officers. At least one precinct, Pasadena No. 4, will be virtually thrown out by the de cision, with a loss of 10S plurality for' all the Roosevelt candidates for elec tors except Wallace. Court Orders New Canvass A peremptory writ was issued direct ing the board of suporvisors to canvass the election returns in accordance with the conclusions set forth in tho opinion. The court sustained the democrats in all except ore point involved. That was an important point, however, in asmuch as a decision in favor of tho democratic contention would have as sured the election of t le entire 13 Wil son electors in the state. This point involved the returns of TA. precincts which the democrats petitioned to be rejected entirely because tiie sealed en- I velopes had bpo n opened, so that cor- i Continued on Pnite _*, Column 3 ' PRICE FIVE CENTS.

Nov. 21.— Always equal to the occasion of presenting the world with a surprise. Turkey sud denly has determined to make a fur ther fight for life. Tonight all the indications point to a continuance of the war in the Balkans. Is Turkey hoping for the expected diversion from Bosnia? Is it a fact that no less than 200,000 seasoned veterans are approaching the Bosporus from the posts in Asia Minor, equipped with the most up to date weapons in the possession of thr Ottoman empire—the garrisons sent by Turkey to guard her Asiatic pos sessions against the Italians and de layed by lack of transports, bad roads and other causes in getting sooner to the front? Must Be Honorable Peace These questions were asked when the news came from Constantinople today that the imperial Ottoman coun cil, after a long session, decided finally to instruct Nazim Pasha as to the kind of peace proposals which Turkey will he willing to concede. "More than ever are we anxious for peace," said Klam, the pasha; "but it must be an honorable peace. From the beginning the sublime porte has de plored most heartily this awful waste of life and suffering among brave men of many nations. All that possibly could be done to avert war was done by his imperial" majesty, the sultan. Even when our brave generals urged us that they should be permitted to turn tem porary reverses into great victories, In the interest of humanity we made an offer of peace. Now, we can not accept the harsh conditions suggested by the Bulgarian reply. So we have notified the minister of war and commander in chief. Nazim Pasha, that unless better k\ ii.
