I i V*. ULTIMATUM TO TURKEY Must Meet Terms to Avoid War. COMPLETE APOLOGY FOR ACTS COMMITTED Number of Other Requirements Included in Demands. London, Nov. 4.Turky ia making efforts through neutral powers to have the allies accept her apology and prevent war. Her latest attempt, however, will fail. The allied powers are absolutely convinced that Turkey must be scotched. To the overtures already made England, who by common con sent Is now acting as the spokesman, has responded that only complete compliance with the original ultima tum will prevent serious reprisals. This ultimatum included: "Dismissal of all Germans from the military and naval service. "Withdrawal of all Turkish war ships from the Black sea dismantling the cruisers Goeben and Breslau and their Internment until the end of the war. "Complete and public apology by the Turkish government for the hos tile acts of its warships promise of adequate indemnity and assurances that violations of neutrality hereto fore complained of would not be re peated in the future." Turkey's apology previously extend ed and declined represented the efforts of the peace party in the Turkish cab inet and the Turkish ambassadors at Bordeaux and Rome. Would Mean End of Turkey. The latter officials realize that the allies are determined if the war final ly ends with them victor that there shall be no more Turkey in Europe. While the decisive war measures wait on the further diplomatic chang es it is understood here that both Russia and England have already act ed to carry the fighting directly to the Turks. The Anglo-French fleet is patrolling the Turkish waters and will prevent the transport of troops. It will probably shell the forts of the Dardanelles and certain exposed Turkish positions. Meanwhile the Egyptian army, which is on a war strength, has moved to head off threatened invasion. Rus sia has sent troops to Caucasia, where they will be able to check any at tempt on the part of the Turks to Stir up trouble among the Moslem population there. There is much speculation here as to the intentions of Italy and the Bal kan states. It is understood that Greece is ready to strike at Turkey, but that she hopes to line up both Roumania and Bulgaria on her side. RUSSIANS REPULSE GERMAN ONSLAUGHTS London, Nov. 4.In the eastern arena of the European war the Rus sian right wing, which rests on the frontier of East Prussia, evidently has been sustaining determined attacks from the Germans. In the meantime the Austrians, hundreds of miles away, still threaten the Russian left wing. A Cracow (Austria) dispatch says events in Galicia are approaching a decisive point and adds that the Rus sians have been driven across the River San and also ejected from Le zaysk. The Austrians are reported as pursuing the Rusians over a fifteen mile front. Petrograd advices say cholera and typhus are raging at Przemysl. The Times correspondent at Petro grad says the number of women com ing back wounded from the front proves that the contingent of ad venturous females on the fighting line is considerable. The women gen erally cut their hair and disguise themselves in soldiers' uniforms. Austria reports further successes in Servia. The troops which crossed the Rivers Save and Drina have ad vanced into Servia over a wide front. British Take Arabian Town.

MAN EMPLOYES ISOLATED Hundreds of Men and a Large Num- ber of Cattle Owner* Obliged teRe- main in the Yards Until the Fed- eral Quarantine Is Lifted. Chicago, Nov. 4.A force of 1,000 men has begun disinfecting the Union stock yards, which had been placed under partial quarantine by federal authorities, to prevent the spread of 'foot and mouth" disease to live stock herds throughout the Middle West Although not a single case of the disease has been found at the Chicago yards several carloads of cattle from Michigan, believed to have been ex posed, have been received here and reshipped. As the disease is spread through contact every section of the yards, covering a district a mile square, is to be disinfected. Hundreds of the 65,000 employes at the yards have been isolated as a re sult of the1 quarantine. Three hun- dred stockmen, who recently arrived with cattle from the infected districts, will be obliged to remain at the yards until the quarantine is lifted. Two crews of inspectors are re quired for the work. The first makes a test for the disease, and -the second digs a deep pit, shoots the affected animals, and, after dumping them in, covers them with quick lime, which insures complete elimination of the disease. All the feed is burned. The cattle owner receives the actual meat value of the cattle and the market value of the feed. Officials of the department of ag riculture were notified that the foot and mouth disease in the Middle West had been discovered in the cattle herd of Notre Dame university. The entire herd of 300 blooded cattle will be de stroyed immediately. Half the ap praised value of the herd will be borne by the federal government and half by the state of Indiana.

That advertising is now a science is again demonstrated practically to the buying public of this section by the wonderful advertising system now employed by the most enterpris ing business house of Huffman & O'Leary, who are going to give away ABSOLUTELY FREE to some one of their customers on May 1, 1915, the beautiful PLAYER PARLOR PIANO which is now on exhibition at their store. The Player Piano sells for FOUR HUNDRED DOLLARS and is a HIGH CLASS instrument in every respect, GUARANTEED by the mak ers for TEN YEARS. JUST THINK OF IT! A Four Hundred Dollar Piano to be GIVEN AWAY! A few years ago, if a merchant was to do such a thing he would he considered a fit subject for an asylum, but con ditions have changed, yet in the face of the enormous sum spent in adver tising the fact of Huffman & O'Leary giving* away a $400.00 piano is a stupendous undertaking and it clear ly demonstrates their desire to be "always up to and a little ahead" of the spirit of the times. Every purchaser of $1.00 worth of goods from any department of their store will receive a coupon good for 100 votes on the piano. The person presenting the largest num ber of votes to them on May 1, 1915, will receive the piano absolutely free. No favors will be shown and every person will receive an equal chance. The reputation enjoyed by Huffman & O'Leary for "square dealing" in sures this fact. We think the buy ing people will appreciate this ex tremely liberal offer on the part of Huffman & O'Leary and we predict a lively scramble for votes.
