Y Arrogance Cause of Hatred. BELGRADE, ervid, Aug. 10.—According to the latest reports received here regard- ibg the murder of the Russian consul at Monastir, M. Rostkovski abused the Turkish gendarme, who was doliig sentry duty for not saluting him and called him a “pig of & Turk.” Then, he struck the sentty with s whip, saying: ‘{Next time, perhaps, you will know me.” The gendarme, there- upon, fired on the consul. It is stated that M. Rostkovoski ~wal hated by the Turks on account of his in- M ostoveki had been in Macedonia for ill-success of the efforts ot Europe since the treaty of Berlin, but thought that the critics of Buropean diplomacy should not forget ~ the extraordinary complication. mortally | Thére were grave grievances arising from a deep-seated disease. He deplored the nonsuccess of their efforts to deal with the sftuation, but was still hopeful that the plan recently designed by Russia and Austria would prove the best way of set- tling it. It was, therefore, the duty of the rest of Europe to support them as long as their efforts’ were directad in no ambitious spirit to the amelioration of the lot of the population of Madcedonia. It must sorrowfully be admitted that the revolutionary bands themselves were one of the chief obstacles to the success of Burope's efforts. The lurid \picture drawn of the condition of Macedonia By his inter- rogator, Mr. Bryce, was not painted in colors any too dark. Between the out: rages “deliberately planned by the revold- tiontsts' and the license of Turkish troops the historical truth required him to say that the balance of criminality lay rather with the ‘revolutionists: than with the Turks. ' '+ A’ news ‘agency dispateh from Constanti- nople ‘says ‘the. Macedonian insurgents are concentrating between Philip and Dibra (for the purpose of Intercepting Turkish re- inforcements from old"fervia. Powers Exchange Views, ROME, Aug. 10.—It is said there has been an exchange of views between the powers regarding the situation in Macedonia and that apparently it has been decided to sup- port Austria and Russia in their efforts to re-establish peace. Reports previously recelved from Itallan consuls in the Balkans predicted the pres. ent revival of the insurrection. Sarafoff's plan, as understood here, is to bring about European intervention by pro- voking the Turks to a massacre, and the murdeg of the Russian consul at Monastir, M.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—(Special Tele- gram.)—The forty-ninth annual convention of the International Typographical union convened today with almost every union represented. Among the delegates present are: J. M. White, Herman Matthes, 1. J Copenharve, Omaha; J. W. Gorman, Coun- cil Bluffs; J. W. Warpel and E. O. Achley, Des Moines; Frederick Hunzer, Lincoln, and O. F. Grant of Lead, 8. D. The Wom- an's International auxillary, which was formed a year ago in Cincinnatl to ald the union in its work of promoting social in- tercourse and charity, 18 represented by the international president, Mrs. Frank A. Kennedy; Mrs. Herman Matthes ond Mrs. Effie L. Matthews of Omaha, anll Mrs. Fred Hunger of Lincoln, who are dele- gates to the second international conven- tion of the woman's auxillary. At the opening session of the main con- vention today a large majority of the 315 delegates was present. Chairman Whitehead of the local com- mittee on arrangements presided, while by his side sat Secretary Cortelyou of the Department of Commerce and Labor, Pub- lic Printer Palmer and a number of other prominent men. The services were opened with prayer by Rev. George R. Maydwell, pastor of Waugh Methodist Episcopal church, who was formerly a printer. He was followed by Commigsioner McFarland, who deliv- ered the address of welcome and he In turn by Willls Moore, chief of the weather bureau. Mr. Moore was at one time a printer and he spoke as one of the craft, congratulating the union upon its strength, upon the progress made and the influence exerted. He spoke, also, of the president of the United States as a friend of labor and congratulated the convention upon that fact. Y Welcomed by Local Union. Vice President Dan F. Vaughan of the local union also welcomed the visitors. President James M. Lynch responded to the welcoming addresses, He cxpressed the opinion that in a few years the union would number 100,000 members and closed by formally calling the meeting to order. The routine proceedings began with the reading of the list of delegates by the sec- retary, Included In the list was the name of Miss Carrie E. Cathcart of St. Joseph, Mo. The members then took the usual pledge not to become members of any organiza- tion inimical to the Interests of the typo- graphical union. Report of President Lynch. The report of President James M. Lynch was presented to the assembled delegates. He says the last year has been a notable one, not only for the International Typo- graphical union, but for organized labor in Beneral. The spirit of organization, he says, has prevailed In trades and callings hitherto almost unknown, while the older organiza- tions have made steady progress and gained in membership. Continuing, the report says that the fleld of the International Typographical union Is necessarily somewhat circumscribed and in the main les In the smgller citles and towns. The locality of any considerable im- portance without a typographical union is vare. The report dwells on the benefits ac- cruing from organization and Mr. Lynch urges the adoption of some plan whereby the fsolated printer working in localities supporting from one to six brother artisans, but not enough to make an organization, can be reached. To reach such cases he suggests that such men be attached to the parent body. During the Industrial crisis brought about by the vast increase In the number of trade adherents, Mr. Lynch s Typographical unfon has been fortunate in preserving its equilibrium and has pursued a calm and peaceful course. Tolerant Spirit Is Better. The report expresses regret at the tend- ency on the part of trade unionists fo make light of unions of employers and questions whether it would not be better to display a tolerant spirit toward them in the hope of establishing friendship. “Surely,” he says, “we cannot deny to others the right which we claim—the right to organize—and it is not aside from the probabliities that through this era of organization may come the era of peace.” Mr. Lynch observes that the work for the future lies in the extension of the work and scope of the International Typographical unfon by added benefits to its members in the way of financial rellef, the renewal of a demand for better sanitary conditions of the work room, insistence on'the proper instructions for apprentices and the ad- vancement of the union label. “Above all,” he sald, “there should be an effort to en- courage a system of education that would bring to our membership a knowledge of the conditions which surround,them and en- able them to defend thelr position as trade unionfsts and members of a great interna- tional organization. Disputes Generally Fairly Settled. The report refers to the arbitration agree- ment with the American Newspaper Pub- lishers' association, which has been in force for more than two years, and says that all but two disputes have been seitled in & fairly satistactory manner, and that th fs & much better general feeling existing between the two organizations. The Inter- naupnal Typographical union, he says, was the first to negotiate a general arbitration agreement, and he adds that thus far the union has carried it out faithtully and with an earnest desire to promote and make se- cure industrial peace Wwith nonupion em- ployers. “If, however,” the report says, “the arbitration agreement is juggled with by unscrupulous individuals and made the vehicle for unjust and questionable deci- slons, through the connivance of any in- terested party, then the cause of arbitration and necessarily the cause of industrial peace, will recelve a blow from which re- covery will not be possible for years." Report of Secretary-Treasurer. The report of J. M. Bramwood, secretary- treasurer, for the year ended May 31, 1008, shows ' that the receipts for the year, in- cluding the balance in the treasury July 1, 1902, of $38,072, \amounted to $223,26. The expenditures were $174,085, leaving a cash balance in the treasury on May 81, 1908, of $49,170, an increase during the fiscal year of $11,007. The report says that the growth in mem- bership has been in keeping with the ad- vances made in,other directions, the in- crease in the average paying membership during the last year being 4,072, the largest o the history of the organization.

Death benefits pald daring the year numbered 476, involving an expenditure of $30,940. " The receipts of the fund were $1,818 In excess of the expenditures, leav- ing a balance to the credit of the fund of 814,989, The amount of benefits pald has been in- creased from time to time, but, the report says, the receipts have always exceeded the expenditures, and the secretary be- lieves the international union is now In a position to raise the death benefit to $70 without {ncreasing the per capita tax Unton Printers’ The report says the Eum of 50,025 was transferred to the Union Printers’ home as its share of the per capita tax during the last fiscal year. ’ The secretary-treasurér expresses gratifi- cation at being ablg to show o balance in the general fund and a revenue which promises to meet the present demands on it. Under these circumstances, he says it is not belleved there is any further necessity for the transfer of money from the burial to the general fund, and he recommends that section 3 of article ix ‘of the constitu- tion be changed to read as it did prior to January 1, 1908. At 11 o'cloek the convention adjourned until tomorrow in order to permit - the members to accept the invitation of the local union to spend the remainder of the day in an éxcursion down the Potomac.

He maintained that the business was conducted in good faith and eald that public prejudice was aroused against the Humbert fam- fly and brought about the faflure of the concern. He emphatically denied the judge's statement that the rooms in the palatial residence of the Humberts in the Avenue de la Grande Arme were con- nected by a system of secret telephones. Mme, Therese here also exclaimed: “Lies, more Mes." Frederic Humbert sald he had devoted much of his time to art and poetry, leaving the entire financial operations to his wife.
