AUSTRO-SERVIAN CRISIS UPSETS EUROPE Greece Breaks With Bulgaria and Refuses to End the War Until Constantinople Falls MRS. BOWNE AND MOTT SEEK EDEN IN MIDDLE CHINA War Correspondent Who Chased Pair Nearly Around World Arrives Here RICH NEW YORKER STANDS BY ACTRESS Pursuit Which Began Last May Ends With Defi in Hongkong . After chasing an clopinp. Lawrence Mott Jr. of New Totk and Mrs. Hewitt Bowne, nearly all the way around the world as the apent of the senior Mott, and supposedly under a • r of f..',000, Hector Fuller, war < Trcspondent and soldier of fortune-, is in San Francisco from the orient, his mission a failure. Mott declared in Hongkong, where Fuller overtook the pair, that he would never leave Mrs. Bowne, a former actress, and they arc now living in a city in the Interior of China. The chase began last May. All possible aid was given Fuller in bis efforts to "recapture" young Mott by the United States department of restate. Consul Richard Spraguc at Gibraltar was the first to receive im perative orders to lend mm tot*nee in breaking up the affair. While the affinities were living an idyllic ex istence on hoard the .slow British cargo steamer, the Indradeo, Mv ...id Mrs. Jordan Lawrence Mott and their man at arms. Fuller, were raring across the Atlantic to Southampton aboard one or th< : greyhor: HJother Gives Up Chase The British boat, bound for the Phil ippine islands and China, stopped at Gibraltar to coal, and even as it tied up at the coal hulks Fuller and the frantic parents were racing southward on the continent. Mrs. Mott became exhausted before the party reached Alffeciras, and it was decided to send Fuller ahead. Consul Sprague had received cable orders to help Fuller In any way possible. The couple came ashore to explore the rock, and as they climbed into a gharry, the sole means of transportation at Gibral tar, the consul approached and asked for an interview. The pair were cheerful, admitted their identity, drove the nonplussed of ficial to Europa point, returned to their ship and bade him farewell. He tried to persuade them to remain until Fuller arrived, but they merely requested the skipper of the indradeo to hurry. Two hours after the steamer sailed Fuller crossed the bay from Algeciras to Gibraltar and spent an en tire day cursing his luck. Pair Missed Again He caught a Spanish mail boat a few days later and all but overtook the pair at Port Raid. Here ho was at a disadvantage, for he was unable to learn positively whether the Indradeo would stop at Adi n or continue to Sa bang, in the liutch Indies. The ship was not equipped with wireless and it was utterly impossible to communicate with the capt-fln, whose route would depend much on his coal supply. Mott was signed on the ship's articles as rurser and Mrs. Bowne was a steward < -•, as is customary where cargo boats are not chartered to carry passengers.

ARMISTICE PROTOCOL IS SIGNED BY ALL ALLIES BUT GREECE LONDON, Dec. 3.—The protocol arranging an armistice was signed late this evening by the Turkish and Bulgarian delegates, the latter representing also Servia and Montenegro. Prior to this there had been a long sitting of the Turkish council of ministers to con T. I. SIDETRACKED FOR GOOD, WORD IN WASHINGTON Congressmen From All Sec tions Agree Rough Rider Is Out of Race Entirely Speeltl Dlspatrh to Tbe Call WASHINGTON, !>ee. 3. —One of the interesting and surprising develop ments of meeting of congressmen from all parts of the country is the decidedly general conviction that Theodore Roosevelt will never again be a candi date fur president. Were this view confined to regular republicans there would be at feast a suspicion that the wish was father to the thought. But such is not the case It its difficult to lind a so-called pro gressive member of either house who does not entertain this view. There are, of course, a few who be lieve Koosevelt will be the nominee of the bull moose party in-1916 and that he will be elected on that ticket, but they are so few that they could be numbered on the lingers of one hand. Among the meu who confidently as- sert that Roosevelt will not again be a candidate -are some whose admiration for the sage of Oyster Bay knows no bounds, but who declare that he did not care this year to become president, that he became a candidate front a sense of duty, and that, having done this duty in launching the third party, will favor the nomination of a candi date who has fewer enemies four years hence. It Is Also surprising to find so many progressives predicting a coalition be tween the two wings of the republican party, the elimination of the third party and the nomination of a reason ably progressive candidate on the re publican ticket who will command the support of all republicans. This de velopment may follow the unifying effort of both minority parties. It is noteworthy, however, that pre dictions that the. two wings of the party will come together are made far more freely by the progressives than by the regular republicans.

THEATRICAL SUIT PROOF AMUSES GIRL SPECTATORS Erlanger's Old Family Skele tons Bared in Edith St. Clair's Action Against Managers Special Dispatch tc Ths Call NEW YORK, Per. .",.—A large and enthusiastic audience, largely chorus girls and theatrical people, again was present in the supreme court today. where tbe suit of Edi-h St. Clair, the actress, against Marc Klaw of Klaw & Erlanger was in progress. Only a few of those who sought en trance could get Into the courtroom. but those who did were kept in a con stant titter by the testiirionv. First there was the testimony of Abraham £_ Erlanger,' against whom in reality the suit Is brought. In which he re newed the' attack lie made yesterday on Max D. Steur of counsel for Miss i St. Clair. He spoke of Steer frequent- Iv. interspersing hi*" testimony with the term "blackmailer."' The lawyer apparently was unmoved by the accu sations. Then came his partner, Marc Klaw. who testified rather reluctantly that he had signed a contract and issued a check for $2,500 as first payment under it to Miss St. Clair, and finally Miss St. Clair herself, who just before recess took the stand to tell of her accom plishment as an actress and how she had been employed by Klaw & Er langer for 15 years. Once the twelfth juror could not hear when Erlanger was testifying. "Your honor," cried the juror, "make him speak up. I can't hear a word ex cept when he calls somebody a liar or something like that." Lawyer Mooney, for the plaintiff, launched into an attack on. Erlanger, which resulted in the judge mi>- •—*•■-~ hhn to be more orderly. "All the News All the Time 9 ' sider fresh proposals submitted by the allies. Apparently the Greek delegates did not sign the protocol. At present nothing is known defi nitely on this point or of the terms of the armistice as revised today, The attitude of Greece indicates its intention to attack the Dardanelles. Heads of European governments that figure in the news concerning the vexed conditions in the old world. The crown prince of the buffer state of Roumania is consulting with the emperor of Germany; the Grecian king is angry at Bulgaria's czar for arrogating to himself all the glory of the triumph over the Turks, and the president of Switzerland has ordered that the little Swiss army he put on a war footing. There are two views showing the use of aeroplanes by Bulgarians in scouting operations. HEALDSBURG FRUIT EXPERT IS DEAD W. N. Clad den,. Formerly Asso ciate of President Harri son, Succumbs.

"BUNKIES" REST SIDE BY SIDE Double Funeral in Presidio Dis closes How Soldier Gave Up Life for Comrade in Arms A story of how one soldier met a tragic, death in the Philippines after his comrade virtually had given up his life in a pathetic effort to nurse him back to health was unfolded yesterday afternoon at the burial of Privates Lee G.

PRICE FIVE CENTS VIENNA DEMANDS ABJECT APOLOGY FROM SERB KING Belgrade Is Defiant Despite Fact That Emperor Franz Josef, Has Great Force Massed to Strike Little Kingdom Terrific Blow When Time Is Ripe for Action Regarding Adriatic SOFIA IS ANXIOUS TO FIGHT IT OUT Military Experts Believe a Clash Between the Balkan State and "Dual Mon archy" Would End in De feat for Latter—No Impor tance Attached to Helenic Withdrawal From League PAUL LAMBETH Special Cable to The Call LONDON, Dec. 3.—The proposed peace conference in London never m-v he held. Tonight Budapest, St. Petersburg, Sofia ant! Belgrade are in the throe? of fresh excitement. The clash between Austria and Servia may happen at any moment. If it occurs, there is small hope of averting a war in which the majority, if not all, the European powers will be involved. A Budapest telegram states that count yon Berchtold is about to de mand that King Peter of Servia shall present himself in full regalia at the Austrian consulate in Belgrade and publicly apologize for indignities which it is alleged the Serbs commit ted against the Austrian consular officials. Serbs White With Anger The Serbs are white with anger. War would be welcomed by the ex cited populace of Belgrade tonight, despite the statement that Austria has close upon 100,000 troops mobilized around Selim, just across the Nave river from the Servian capital, and 60,000 more in Scrajavo, close to the Servian border of Bosnia. The Serbs treat the military strength of Austria with undisguised contempt. They say that the only real fighters in the army of the dual monarchy are with them heart and soul; that the purely Austrian troops are "poltroons led by aged asses." Austria is ridiculed in the Belgrade newspapers. On the other hand, ap peals are made to the patriotism and friendliness of the Slav races in the southern and eastern provinces of Austro-Hungtary, "which German usurpers have tricked and attempted to enslave." Austrian Army Is Weak Servia is not alone in doubting the effectiveness of the Austrian army. Here it is predicted openly that if Aus tria provokes a war with the Balkan states it will be whipped badly. Little importance was attached to the pecu liar conduct of Greece. The experts all along have se-m small reason for glorifying the Greek deeds during the war.
