ANXIETY IN EUROPE No Re: zo—Conference of Six Great Powers Meets With the Favor of Thre ance to Occupancy of Duraz- London, Nov. 28—The Servians ig- noring the proclamation of Albanian independence, have occupied the port of Durazzo without resistance. This information comes in a direct despatch from that town tonight. Thus the con- flict is now raised in acute form be- fween Austria and Servia and it re- mains to be seen whether the Austrian government will take any direct ac- tion or will be content to leave the question for the after-the-war settle- ment. 5 Will Keep Europe Anxious. The Servian action, coupled with the eminently warlike feeling prevailing at Vienna, is likely to keep Europe in a continued state of anxiety. On the other hand ,the fact that the negotia- tions are in progress at Baghtche and that there {8 no sign of the resump- tion of operations on the Tchatalja lines, while the great powers are ex- changing proposals for the assembling of a Buropean conference, all make for a peaceful settlement. Effect of Proposed Conference. Should the proposed conference ma- terlalize—for apparently Austria has not yet consented to participate—it would be considered as preparatory to a later full conference which would in- clude the Balkan states and Turkey for a final settlement of all questions. Nothing has been decided as to where the conference will be held or precisely what questions will be dis- cussed. Secrecy Regarding Plenipotentiaries’ | Conference. The project appears to have arisen out of a general irritation at the ine- vitable delays necessitated by the con- stant telegraphic interchanges of views. Great secrecy is preserved regarding the conference at Baghtche and it is not known whether the plentipotenti- aries are discussing the terms of an armistice or besis for the conclusion of peace. 1t is reported from Rome that pro- visional Albanian government has been constituted at Valonia (Avlona) by | eighty Albanian delegates. CONFERENCE OF POWERS. Proposal That Representatives of the “Big Six” Get Togethe: London, Nov. 28—Sir Edward Grey's proposal that the ambassadors of the six great powers, Great Britain, Ger- many, France, Russia, Austria-Hun- gary and Italy, should assemble in one | of the capitals with the view of em- phasizing the points arising out of the Balkan war on which the nations are already in agreement, is understood to have the support of Germany, France and Russia. The idea 13 to endeavor to avert the disposition to drift into an alignment of the two groups of powers forming the triple alliance and the triple en- tente in opposite camps over isolated questions such as caused the tension which existed early this week. It is anticipated that without at- tempting to reach a detailed settle- ment of all the problems which will come up for arrangement at the end of the war, the ambassadors will be able to register an agresment in prin- ciple on such matters as the future of Albania, the disposition of the islands in the 'Aegean sea and fhe opening or closing of the Dardanelles, WAR STOPS BIBLE ADVANCE. Dr. Bowen Describes Religious Condi- tions\in Balkans. New York, Nov. 28—Rev. Dr. Mar- cellus Bowen, agent of the American Bible soclety for the Levant, with headquarters in Constantinople, de- scribed_yesterday religious conditions in the Balkans, with specfal reference to the work done by American men and money. He fears the work in many districts is at a standstill. He saig in part: “The interests of the American Bi- blo soclety, ifke those of the general missionary’ boards, are very seriously involved in the flerce Balkan struggle now in progress. Especially in Bul- garia the demand for the Scriptures has increased marvellously during the last five years, and to keep up with it has been no easy task for the soclety. From Sofia, the capital, came recentiy a most urgent petition for ten thou- sand New Testaments, which if sup- plied, could be profitably disposed of at once. Alas! the edition was practi- cally exhausted already, and multi- tudes, eager to secure copies, are obliged to walt until a new edition can be_produced. “This interesting and importuante cry for the Bible is doubtless due, among other causes, to the striking intellectual and moral development that has been in progress. The Bul- garians, out of a grossly ignorant and degraded status, have been undergoing in recent years a remarkable transfor. mation to the more Christian status of an intelligent reading and thinking people. But the country’s interest has centred in the war and it has contrib- uted to its prosecution the mass of its fighting population.” STABBING AFFRAY AT A TORRINGTON DANCE HALL — Knife Used on a Man Who Tried to Force an Entrance. Torrington, Conn,, Nov. 28.—Patrick Hogan, aged 21, is confined to his home with five stab wounds in his body as the result of a fight at an early hour this morning with two Hungarians.

My wife's money has all been spent,” said Gibson, “but I will not confess a crime I did not commit. I will fight.” Assistant District Attorney J.
