She will appear before the body again tomorrow. Later it was said that the girl had finally yielded to the pleadings of her mother, Mrs. Cameron-Falconet of $Minneapolis, and consented to ‘return to her home, demouncing the pugilist. “PROGRESSIVE” WOMEN HAVE A NEW SCHEME Will Hold Meetings to Sell Badges, Buttons and Souvenirs. “As far as Connecticut is-concerned, our general incorfdrative laws are now very liberal and our savings banks have such an abundance of deposits that they are well able to meet all the financial needs of Connecticut agri- culture; nor do they ever charge above a very moderafe rate of interest.

For the first time since he was shot In Milwaukee, eight days ago, Colonel Roosevelt was unattended tonight by a physician. There was no one in the 1 house except the members of the fam- ily and servants, and the colonel spoke hopefully of being able, after one day more of rest, gradually to resume his work. Complete Rest Essential. Exeept for the fact that Colonel Roosevelt was in bed this evening, in- stead of at work in his library, there was nothing to suggest that anything out of the ordinary had occurred. Four physicians came with the col- onel on his arrival at Oyster Bay from Chicago this morning, and after they had dressed his wound they told him that the one essential was complete rest. If their Mirections are observed. it is believed that the ex-president’s complete recovery is probable, although it cannot yelt be said that he is entirely out of danger. i Wound Still Wide Open. Dr. Alexander Lambert and Dr. Scurry Terrell, who accompanied Col- onel Roosevelt from Chicago, were joined in New York by Dr. Joseph A. Blake and Dr. George Brewer. After examining the patient they said that the wound was still wide open, spoke of the possibility of infection and add- ed they were ugable to say whether, it would be possi for him to take up the work of the campaign again. Colonel Roosevelt, when his wound had been dressed, said there was no longer the need of constant supervision of physicians, because he was “all right.” Physicians Loath to Leave Him. The physicians were doubtful at first whether he should be left alone, and It was suggested that one of their num- ber remain at Sagamore Hill. But the colonel insisted that it was unnecessary, and the physicians con- cluded it would be wisest to accede to his wishes. Danger of a sudden change in his condition being remoce, it was thought that the colonel would make more rap- id progress toward recovery if he were left alone with his family, without sug- gastlon of anything other than the usual conditions which surround his life at Sagamore Hill. The physicians all went to New York and said ‘that they would not return until tomorrow afternoon. Has Colored Nurse. James Ames, or “Jim,” as tHe colonel calls ,his negro butler, is acting as nurse, under the direction of Mrs, Roosevelt. He has been with the onel so long that he is able to antici- pate his wants and care for him more satisfactorily .than almost anyone else except Mrs. Roosevelt herself. Colonel Roosevelt and “Jim” spent a contented evening together. The colonel, who had recovered from the weariness due to his long journey, dozed at intervals, then awoke and asked “Jim"” to read to him. Mrs. Roosevelt came in from time to time to her husband’s room. Mrs. Roosevelt Places Men on Guard. The parting injunction of the physi- cians was that Colonel Roosevelt must have absolute rest, and that he must see no one today or tomorrow. Mrs. Roosevelt agreed with them, and took hold of the situation as she did in Chi- cago. Her first move was to place men on guard at the gate, with strict or- ders that no one, whoever he might be, was to be admitted- to the grounds. Then she saw to it that perfect quiet was maintained in the house, and even the other members of the family were permitted to talk with the colonel for only a short time. Friends, political workers, newspaper reporters and pho- tographers flocled to the foot of Saga- more Hill during the day, but did not succeed in passing the men on guard. Tonight, after the rush was over, the guard was withdrawn. Colonel Resents a Personal Guard. Some of Colonel Roosevelt's friends were afraid of his safety and insisted that he must be protected against an- other attack, but the colonel would not hear of a personal guard and had only his family and the servants about the house around him. ° His physicians would make no prom- ises as to when the colonel would be able to be out. g 2 The colonel hopes to hold a short conference with Senator Dixon, George W. Perkins and a few other progres- sive leaders on Thursday. Doctors Bar Hotchkigs. Oyster Bay, N. Y. stance of the fidelity physiciang’ orders against visitors are being enforced was furnished when William B. Hotchkiss. chairman of the state progressive party, came to Oys- ter Bay to see the colonel. Mr. Hotch- kiss got by the guards, but was halted at the residence itself. Colonel Roose- velt sent out his regrets that he was unable to receive the state chairman and made an appointment for a con- ference on Thursday.

London, Oct. 22.—An almost infpene- trable veil conceals the most interest- ing operations of the war—those in the vicinity of Adriamople. No official ac- count of any kind bearing on these j operations has vet been issued. The i Sofla newspapers report heavy fighting !'around Adrianople and Kirk-Kilisseh, | to the east, and three forts in the vi- icinny of Adrianople captured. Ac- j cording to one rumer 2,000 Bulgarians were killed and 4,000 wounded in & desperate engagement outside of Kirk- Kilisseh. . It is quite clear, however, that aW reports of the fall of Kirk-Kilisseh and the cutting of communications with Constantinople are quite unfounded. Fighting Along Frontier. Fighting of a moré or less serious character continues at all points along the extensive frontiers, 3nd an Im- portant bauwid ig impending' in the Kumanova district between the Servi- ans and Zekki Pasha, who, according to a Cnstantinople report, which s probably exaggerated, has 100,000 men and strong artillery. A Ccenstintinople despatch, semi about midnight, gives a report that the battle -has begun practically all along the line from Adrianople to Kirk-Kilisseh, the Turkish troops ad- vancing and the Bulgarians falling back with heavy losses. Greeks Ready for Turkish Squadron. The Montenegrins apparently are making slow progress in the direction # of Scutarius. Podgoritza despatches say that the bombdrdment of Taia- bosch contigues, but although the forts were greatly damaged there is no sign of yielding. s In naval matters the honors are stil with the Greeks, who captured .Lem- neh, thus securing a base from which they ®an attack the Turkish squadron, should it ever emerge from the Darda- nelles. Seemingly, however, the Turks are not disposed to leave the Black sea and risk an encounter with the Greek fleet. Bulgarian Victories Reported. Sofia, Bulgaria, Oct. 22.—The news- papers report that the Bulgarians have captured several important positions around Adrianople and Djumbala, af- ter severe fighting, but official con- firmation is lacking.
