Made by Balkan “TANGIBLE PROOF OF HER LOVE FOR PEACE” PRICE TWO CENTS Peace Delegates Explanation of Rechad Pasha in Offering Concessions After Balkan Delegates Had Rejected Proposition For Mediation by the Powers—Turk’s- Counter Proposal Creates Indignation—Status of Adrianople Unsettled. London, Jan. 1.—After their pro- wacted diplomatic skirmishing the Furks finally capitulated to a majority #f the demands of the Balkan allies at loday's session of the peace confer- Wmce in St. James' palace. Through Rechad Pasha they agreed to cede practically the whole of the Ottoman ympire's European dominions, except Adrianople and_the territory between % and Constantinople, to their victori- yus but traditfonally despised neigh- ors. Terms Proposed by Turks. The terms the Turkish delegates presented to the conference as 2 counter proposal to the demands of the allies were: First—The rectification of the Turko- Bulgarian frontier by making the boundary west of the line now occu- pied by the troops of the allies in the villayet of Adrianople. Second—The question of the status of Adrianople to be settled, by Turkey and Bulgaria direct. Third—The cession of the remainder of Buropean Turkey, including Janina and Scutari, to the allies. Fourth—The Albanian and Cretan questions to be solved by the powers. Fifth—The Aegean Islands to remain wurkish. Turks Provs Hard Losers. The announcement of these terms ‘was wrung from the Oitoman dele- gates with the oreatest dificulty. They oame only after Rechad Pasha had reiterated Turkey’s desire to shift the responsibility for adjudicating all the vital questions to the great powers and the representatives of the allies Bad registered their unchangeable ob- :’Qions to such a course and plainly given the Turks to understand that the failure of t+»~ Ottoman dele- ates to embark upon serious nego- ations would mean a resumption of Bostilitles in southeastern Europe. - Outburst of Indignation. ‘The sitting ‘~day was the most mo- entous and exciting since the begin- g of the conference. The Greek jer, M. Venizelos, presided and ediately after the opel of the ronference he invited Rechad Pasha to Tesent the Turkish counter proposais o the demands of the allies, as the Turks last Monday had agreed to do. Rechad said his interpretation of the badly transmitted telesrams of the ¥O0 FORCE WAY INTO THE ROCKEFELLER MANSION. Hergeant-atArms to Seek the Power of Attachment. New York. Jan. 1.—The.Pujo com- mitice investigating the so-called “money trust” will be asked tomorrow to consider the advisability of issulng Hn attachment empowring the deputy sergeant at arms of the house of rep- resentatives and private detectives in their employ to force their way into the Fifth avenue mansion of William Rockefeller and subpoena him to ap- ear as a witness before the commit- ee in Washington. This was the announcement made fate tonight by William Riddell, ser- geant at arms of the house, after fruit- less efforts by his force of deputies and detectives to find Mr, Rockefeller ana serve him with a subpoena. Mr. Riddell said that Jerry South, chief clerk of the house, left tonight for Washington to confer tomorrow With members of the Pujo committee. “I am not enough of a lawyer to know what the powers of the committee are,” said Mr. Riddell, “and I would not want to expréess an opinion as to the probable outcome of Mr. South’s visit.” “I expect something important to happen within 24 hours,” he added. “I hove to be able to announce within that time that Mr. Rockefeller has been subpoenaed.” The New Year's day siege of the ockefeller house passed with little cident. That there would be no ces- Bation of the strict guard about the dwelling_was asserted at a late hour by Mr. Riddell. “We will stay right Wrhere ‘we are,” h declared. WMES C;F NITRIC ACID KiLl. DEPUTY FIRE CHIEF. ‘wo Other Members of Portland De- partment in Serious Condition. Portland, Me., Jan, 1.—Deputy Chief William H. Steecle of the Portland fire department is dead and two other members of the department, Captain W. G. Parker and Giles Remond, are In a’ serious condition as a result of baving inhaled fumes of nitric acid from a broken carboy in the basement of a drug store today. Fearing that the acld would set fire to the building, the occupants notified the Central'fire station of the breaking of the carboy, and Deputy Chief Steele, Captain Parker and three firemen went into the basement and turned a stream from a chemical onto the fire. The dense fumes that arose drove them from their place and all were nearly overcome when they erached the open air. Chief Steele died from pneumonia to- night. TRIES FOR A RECORD. San Jose, Cal., Starts Prunes Shipment by Parcel Post. Ban Jose, Cal., Jan. 1.—Residents of San Jose are hopeful that for this day Jeast the city will hold the coun- ‘s record for the amount of matter ¢ by parcel post. Among other , two carloads at'.l’rntnl done packages, were sent ou earl trains to addresses In IK ‘parts of the country.

This caused an outburst of indignation which M. Venizelos was hardly able to put down. Several of the delegates shouted that it was not dignified to turn such vital matters into a joke, while others observed that they had not come all the way to London and remained here for three weeks to hear a proposition advamted which might have been made at the time the armis- tice was signed. Refused to Acce~t Mediation. When relative calm was restored, M. Venizelos, Dr. S. Danef® the leader of the Bulgarian delegation, M. Novako- vitch, Serviad, and M. Miyuskovitch, Montenegrin, each for their respective countries, declared that they would not accept the prorosed mediation by the powers and insisted that the Turk- ish delegates present a practical and defined nroposal and on it they would be ready to negotiate. Turks Make Further Concessions. Rechad then announced that his in- structions contained another alterni- tive and requested few minutes’ time to formulate it. After a short recess, during which he had absented himself from the chamber, Rechad re- entered the conference room and M. Venizelos again took the chair. Rechad said that Turkey, desiring to give tan gible proof of her love for peace and in deference to advice recefved from the powers, was ready to make the maximum of possible concessions to the allles by granting a rectification of the frontiers, ceding the territories westward of the line occupied by the allies in the vilavet of Adrianople to them. Buigaria Won’t Renounce Adriancple. M. Daneff here rose and said it would be impossible for Bulgaria to renounce her claim to the possession of Adrianople and that he could not accept such an indefinije offer. M. Venizelos said that the proposal of Turkey must declare explicitly-that the question of Adrianople must be settled independently later. He added that the proposed compromise ~hould even in- clude territory mot yet occunied by the allies, citing as an instance Janina. M. Miyuskovitch made a similar claim on behalf of Montenegro concerning Scutari. 1 NEW YORK STRIKERS MAKE NO TROUBLE. New Year’s Day Decidedly Peaceful Despite Labor Troubles. New York, Jan. 1.—The new indus- trial year in this city began with near- Iy 90,000 garment workers continuing their sirike in a peaceful manner, and with a strike of hotel waiters and cooks a matter of doubtful existence. “Never in the history of organized labor has there heen conducted such a peaceful strike,” declared Benjamin Schweitzer of the executive committee of the United Male Garment Workers, discussing the troubles the clothing manufacturers have on their hands. Because it is a hollday the shops-wers closed, and both sides in the dispute marked time. No conference looking toward mediation were held, and mass meetings of the strikers were not call- ed. No_hotel proprietor or labor official was found who would be quoted as ac- knowledging that waiters or cooks were not working as usual. To all ap- pearances this strike di»d with the old year. Cooks who walked out yesterday in an_effort to cripple the New York New Year's eve restaurant business found their places filled today. PUTS SOME GINGER IN HOME RULE DEBATE. Member from Ulster Proposes That Northern Ireland Be Excluded. London, Jan. 1.—An attempt was made this afternoon to infuse some vigor into the home rule debate in the house of commons. The members from Ulster proposed the exclusion of the northern province of Ireland from the operations of the measure. Sir Edward Carson in moving an amendment to that effect nleaded for seriqus consideration of the guestion, which might, he said, be vital to_the success of the bill and to the whole constitution of the United Kingdom. It was, he-said, a question whether the house of commons had made up its mind to drive Ulster from the con- stitution under which it desired to re- main. Never, he concluded, without the use of force, could the Ulster people be compelled to submit to the degrada- tion of a parliament in Dublin, which was abhorrent to them. FOOTBALL REFEREE A ATTACKED BY MOB Trouble at Paris After Scotch Team Defeated French Team. Paris, Jan. 1—For the first time in France a football riot occurred to- day. It was at the Parc des Princes, Paris, after a Scottish Rugby team had defeated a Frdnch team by a score of 21 to 8. The mob broke down the barriers and assailed the referee, J. W.

PRESIDENT TAFT'S LAST NEW YEAR’S RECEPTION Chief Magistrate Shakes Hands with Over 7,000 Persons. ‘Washington, Jan. 1.—President Taft's last New Year's reception at the White House attracted today ome of the greatest crowds that ever has gath- ereq at the executive mansion. Sur- rounded by his family, the members-of his cabinet and a 4 shed com- pany, the president received officials and cttizens of high and low degree, and when the last caller had been greeted Mr, Taft had shaken hands with more than 7,000 persons. The reception n_shortly before noon, members of _Wd.un belng recelved first. ere the justices of the United States supreme court and other fed- eral courts, United States ambassa- dors and ministers, senators and rep- resentatives, army and navy officers, a long line of other officials and mem- bers of milltary socletles and other organizations. Then came the public. he White House reception, always the New Year's day feature in the cap- ital, was followed by numerous other brilliant affairs. Secretary of State and Mrs. Knox -entertained fhe mem- bers of the diplomatic corps at break- fast at the Pan-American bullding, nearly every foreign nation with em b;flsy or legation here being represent- e S8ULZER WALKS TO CAPITOL AT ALBANY. All of the Usual Pomp and Display Eliminated. Albany, N. Y., Jan. 1.—Precedents of years' standing were ignored and oth- ers created today during the inaugura- tion of Willlam Sulzer of New York as democratic governor of the Empire State. All the pomp and display’ usually incident to such occasions were lack- ing: this at the governor's own re- quest. There was no military demon- stration, no governors salute of 19 guns, no parade of civic and political bodies: nothing, in fact, to feature the induction into office of the state’s chief executive except a notable gathering of prominent people and the carrying out of the procedure provided by the con- stitutione The new governor in his desire for simplicity insisted upon walking from the executive mantion to the capltol, refusing to ride in a carriage which had been provided. After the cere- monies he inaugurated a new feature by appearing upon the front steps of the capitol and addressing the thou- sands who were unable to witness the ceremonies inside. In accepting the reins of government the new executive pledged “ an honest and efficient and economic and busi- nesslike administration.’” BALLOT FOR GOVERNOR IS NOT YET REACHED. New Hampsh House is Deadlocked on the Speakership. Concord, N. H., Jan. 1.—A deadlock in the organization of the house of rep- resentatives today prevented the legis- lature from reaching a ballot for gov- ernor.

Balioy, Ansonia’s oldest Belisves Crowds Would Progress, So Will Ride Like Predecessors—Approves Sulzer’s Act. Impede His Princeton, N. J., Jan. 1.—Gov.Wood- Tow Wilson intimated tonight that if it were a possible thing he would like to go afoot between the White House and the capitol when he takes the oath of office as president of tie United States on March 4. He real- izes, however, that the crowds would make it impossible and that he prob- ably will have to ride in a parade, as have all recent presidents. Idea of Jeffersonian Simplicity. ~_Jeffersonian simplicity, the kind that the president-elect would like to em- ulate, however, he remarked, consist- ed not of a horseback ride, as some ‘historians have chronicled it, but was merely an unostentatious walk down Pennsylvania avenue in the company of a few citizens. Approved Sulzer’s Cours: “The story that Jefferson rode on horseback to the capitol and hitched his horse to a post while he went in to take the oath of office isn’t true,” said the governor. He was told that Governor Sulzer had walked to the capitol at Albany and had abolished the parade. Mr. Wilson spoke approv- ingly of this. He was asked if he had made any plans for his own inaugura- tion in this connection. Wants Simple Inaugural. “I hadn’t thought out the method at all,” he said. “I have simply satisfied myself with impressing the gentlemen at Washington on the inaugural com- mittee with my desire to have the in- auguration as simple as possible. T dare say the great crowds In the streets on that day would make walk- ing to the White House and capitol difficult.” The Extra Session.

Was Caught in Act of Breaking Into Grocery Store. Windeor, Conn,, Jan. 1.—There was an exciting but fruitless chase for a burglar here late tonight in which of- ficers fired five times with revolvers at an intruder who had broken into J. L. Besler's grocery store. Mr. Bezier was awakened by the sound of the burglar alarm going off in his home, and he notified Deputy Sheriff Walch and Constable Kennedy. As they en- tered the store the burglar made a hurried exit via the back window. The officers called upon him to stop, and when he did not, fired at his fleeing figure, but none of the five shots took effect. Some ladies living nearby, hearing the shots, cried “Murder!” which de- tracted attention from the burglar long enough to allow him to escape. Noth- ing of value was taken. An overcoat aid a pair of gloves were found under the back porch of the store. In the coat is the only clue, a slight one, a buttonhook bearing the name of a Chicopee Falls manufacturer. MINERS RESCUED AFTER FORTY HOURS. Eight of Nine Entombed Men Found Alive and Sent to Hospital. Tamaqua. Pa.

The other man, Joseph Walters, is missing, and is believed to have been killed. News that the rescue had been made brought joy to several thousands of persons who had gathered around the colliery, and when word was received that the men were in sight all physi- clans were requested to come to the colliery. Arrangements were also made to take the men to the hospital at Coaldale, Pa. The men were impris- oned nearly forty hours. TWO KILLED WHILE WALKING ON TRESTLE.
