Berlin, Dec. 20.—"Military says the Overseas News “estimate that 50,000 Ser- bians escaped the forces that were at- | tacking them. Of these, the Bulgar- * ians say, 30,000 attempted to reach Scutari, making the effort without cither artillery or baggage, at least one-third of them perishing. “The other 20,000 according to these estimates marched into Albania, where a large number of them were killed by the Albanians, “In their campaign the Bulgarians, it is asserted, took 45,000 railroad trucks loaded with muniti guns and various other supplie ARMENIAN GHURGH MEN IN NEAR RIOT (Continued From First Page.) circles list himself and could prove by it that 139 were entitled to a vote. Sargas Benjamin then interrupted to make | a hot speech in which he declared that Judge Hungerford or anyone else had no right to “but in” and interrupt | Their meeting and he would appeal to the bishop. The idea seemed a good one and Judge Hungerford said he would appeal to the bishop himself. Finally, the excitement being so in- tense and violence ever threatening, the police called the meeting off and ejected everybody from the hall. Not First Trouble. " This is not the first time that there | has been trouble among this group of | Afmenians. At a previous meeting held in Benz's hall some time ago it was necessary for the police to take a hand and clear out the angry mob. At the time of the Armenian tag day last fall it was feared for a time that trouble might result. Those of djfferent nationalities who had been asked to assist. stated at the time that hecause of the great jealousy existing between two factions of the Armenians they were afraid that trouble might result over the counting of the money. Accordingly, men who stood the high- est in the community and having no interest in either side, were selected to count the cash. Then it was sent t®a reliable house in New York, where it was again counted. But even then the jealousy was felt and one faction was continually afraid that the other might receive some little benefit that the other would not. In remarking on last night's affair, Captain Grace states that he ordered the hall cleared out not because he whnted to take sides with either fac- tion, but merely on grounds of public policy. He realized that if both parties ‘were not ejected serious trou- ble was sure to follow. UPHOLDS NEBRASKAN LAW.

Eigh- Fif- Bars Peeling of Chimes. Boston, Dec, 20.—By order of the Rev: Dr. William H. Van Allen, the chimes of the Church of the Advent Were n.. rung in honor of Presideat Wilson's marriage Saturday night. A squad of bell ringers had an- nounced that they would ring the “Grandshire Tr:sles” in honor of the wedding of the president, and a large crowd appeared at the church to hear the recital. They waited long in rain, but in vain. Dr. Van Allen said: “I decided thati the chimes shouid not be rung in honor of the presi- dent's wedding. The ringers came to me with the request, but I decided against them.” RED CROSS RELIEF_;VORK. Extent of Work to Be Carried on Here Will Be Decided. To what extent the local branch of the Red Cross society and especially the Woman’s War Relief committee will engage in foreign work during ar will be taken up at a joint mee in the historical room at the New Britain Institute at 4:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. At the meeting held two weeks ago some of the members of the relief committee expressed the belief that it would not be wise to enter as exten- sively into the work as last year unless there is a greater response to the ap- peal for funds and somebody can be found who is willing to take charge in case it should be decided to open rooms as last year. When the war broke out the Red Cross was the only relief society in a position to give active aid to war suf- ferers, but things have changed a lot since then and today there are many organized in various branches of for- eign relief with the result that there is perhaps less need for the Red Cross to undertake work on as large a scale as last year. All members of the local branch of the Red Cross who have renewed their membership are invited to attend the meeting tomorrow. HELD AS GERMAN SPY, Licut. Dyer of U. S.
