Galldudet from sister, Mrs. Lam- bro A, Caromilas, wife of the minis- ter of. forelgn affars and of finance, gives a stirring picture of present con- ditlons In Greece, The marriage of =Mrs., Ceromilas (Miss Anna Ewing Cockrell, daughter of United States Senator F. W. Cockerell of Missourl) took place at the home of Mrs. Galau- det July 6, 1910, when Mr. Caromilas ‘was representing his country in Amer- dca; so that the following extracts from her letter, dated 19 Rue Kiphissia,Ath- ens, Oct. 4th, are of local interest: ‘We are on the vorx‘:m of war. I& is that by the e you receive mflu be declared, and Oh, do that we may beavictorious. We ped until now that war could be averted, but I fear it is inevitable. Tur- ey becomes more outrageous day by day in her cruelty to the millions of Greeks and other Christians in Turkey and Macedonis, and particularly in the last named, life is no longer bearable. ‘Besides that, she has broken all trea- ties she has made, in the most inso- lent and cruel manner; landing troops on Greek islands (not under Greek rule, but governing themselves), where by treaty she*had promised never to send troops, and killing women and chilrren, not to speak of men. The barbarity of Turkey can never be un- derstood by those not living in such close relations as I am. She is too big, too wild; there is no way for their atrocities to become known, as there is practically no civilization in the whole country. I cam't explain to you the barbarity, the cruelty, the insolent domineering which makes life for all the other Balkin states—Greere, Bul- aria, Servia and Montenegro—almost ;npoum for Turkey with the slight- est movement can affect and ruin all the commerce and prosperity of these countries. Attitude of the Powers. At any rate, things have come to such & point that if Turkey does not sicoept the reforms demanded by the Balkan states it will mean Inevitable war, Of course, all the “great pow- ers"—England, France, Russia, Ger- many and Austria—are absolutely against us, imwisting that Turkey re- main “intacte,”, for their own inter- ests, as they all have their eyes and desires upon Turkey, and a dismem- ‘berment of that country would proba- bly mean an European war. as the question as to which power should have the biggest slice is one only to be answered and solved by war. Thus they consider that the interests of smaller countries should be sacrificed to the interests of the greater ones, which is quite comprehensible from their point of view. ‘Unbearable Cruelty. But to Greece, whose ambition is as great as the glory of her past, it is not to be expected that she sacrifice the interest ‘she has in all the islands ruled by Turkey and inhabited only by Greeks, all of whom long and struggle to join Greece. and the interest in Reublican Rally ~ 'TOWN HALL Tonightat 8 o'clock Hon.

One has to live in a the polgnant sadness of it, but at the same time the dignified and intense patrietism! I say dignified, for since Sunday last men have been pouring in- to Athens answering to the call to arms. There 18 no wild excitgment that one sees in countries whereffwar is not understood and where it seems more or less a game, but it is deep, earnest and intense patriotism of men who have known the horror of war, and the agony of defeat (it was only in 1897 that by overwhelming numbers Greece was crushed in her eqort to free Crete). Sacrifice Their All The peasants have left their farms in the midst of the wine-making (all will be lost), their horses and wagons have been taken for “service militaire,” all men between 21 and 40 hllve been call- ed. Business has been dropped and only the men above 40 and the women and children remain, and if there is war all men able wil be called. All of the young men here are in either the army or navy, and it is too tragic to see them all go. The Terrible Winter. I do not fear so mucifthe fire of battle as the weather, which in winter in Thessaly is awful. Cold rain and wind for three months steady and a country like this, where one part is cold and wet, has not adequate cloth- ing for all. Already the women are working. I joined a committee today for making flannel underwear and oth- et clothing for the sick and wounded, and my house is to be the rendezvous for the sewing. Most of the women in society who are “diplomed” nurses will go to the front to nurse, and we younger ones have to stay home and sew. There are no regular nurses or Red Cross nurses, only ', few in the each legation. hospitals here, and the others who have taken a course of training in case of war. I want to take a course and learn to bandage. Soldiers Quartered in Homes. Athens now 1is overflowing with sol- diers. They have alkhad to come here to be clothed and receive orders, but by Monday all will hdve left apd Ath- ens will be deserted. All of the big- gest private houses whose occupants are away in Europe have been “per- quise,” and are full of soldiers sleeping in the drawing roomis, dining room, ev- erywhere. A house, three'doors from me, belonging to 4 rich widow has 80 soldiers in it. But everyone of one ac-, cord offers their houses and everything they can. Our gardener has gone, our cook and our cocher are going, and even our horses have been taken and two small, half dead ones put in their place. All of the automobiles, private and public, have been taken and almost all the horses, that is those capable of service, So you can imagine the aspect of the city in a few days when all have gone. In the big shops one finds but ome or two or three employes, instead wof forty and fifty. Minister’'s Important Work. Lambro, as minister of foreign af- fairs, as you can imagine, is head over heels in work. For it is he who forms ‘the demands and does all the work be- ‘tween the different cointries. It is he who has made the “‘entente” between Grenec and the other Balkan states, and which makes victory for all possi- ble for even though the Turkish army is twice as large aé all put togther, it will be a stiff fight for her to be at- tacked simultaneously from all sides. Give us your prayers. We must win. It is the one and almost last hope of Greece to free herself absolutely from Turkey, and to build up a brilliant fu- ture, but If her frontier line is not changed this she cannot de, We sim- ply must win.

We keep most of it closed now, and we have our meals in my boudoir, a large, beautiful room with three French windows, giv- ing an enormous marble balcony. ‘We had planned to give dinners for the king, queen and all the princes, but with the war all thought of enter- taining is abandoned, although we will of course have to give a dinner for TEMPORARY RECEIVER. been appointed by the superior court temporary receiver of the Fennsylva- nia Oil company of New London, and is ordered to file a bond of $3,000.

THE MODERATE PRICES INDICATE THE ADVANTAGES OF PURCHASING HERE MRS. ISICKLES AGAIN SAVES THE GENERAL. Induces Sheriff to Delay Sale of Old Soldier's Personal Effects. New York, Oct. 24—A plea against the sale of the personal effects of Gen. Daniel E. Sickles. the aged war vet- eran, who was formerly ambassador to Spaln, was made today by his estranged wife to Sheriff Harburger, who agreed to a postponement of the threatened sale when Mrs, Sickles promised to pay, about Nov. 10, money necessary to satisfy a new judgment against her husband. This is the second time in a month that Mrs. Sickles has come to the vet- eran’s aid. On the other occasion she pawned jewelry that was her property when a belle at the court of Spaln ne for evidences of bubonic when General Sickles knew here there, | plague. This action led to a report that the couple would be reconciled, but al- though Mrs. Sickles paid the judgment their social relations remained as be- fore, each in a statement declaring their reunion was impossible.

Cambridge, 0., Oct. 24.—Declaring that we are today in the flood of an increasing and widening prosperity, Attorney General Wickersham deliver- ed an address here today. “Our mills are running with pros- perity,” ‘he sald, “and the demands for their product is exceeding their capaci- ty. No able bodied man who wants work need remain idle. Not only are the wages of the highest rate whica has hitherto prevalled, but this very day the newspapers have announced that an increase of 15 cents a day has been given the laborers in iron plants at Ironton.
