LONDON, Aug. 15.—There is no reason to belleve that any of the powers, espe- olally Great Britafn, will raise any objec- I tion to the demands of Russia on Turkey or to the visit of its squadron in Turkish waters untll Its demands shall have been full; complied with.

This being o Cotholie hoilday it 1s impossible to procure an offi- cial statement, but among minor offclals and the public generally the opinion is ex- pressed that unless it develops that Aus. tria was cognizant of Russta's proposed ac- tion the Austro-Hungarian agreement may be vitally aftected, as the news would seem to indicate that Russia Intends to pursue & more Independent course than hereto- fore. OMAHA TO BE HEADQUARTERS Interantienal Brotherhood of Station- mry Firemen to Organise the West, ROCHESTER, N.

He believ the outbreak will be confined to the vill of Monastir, where the Turks will prob- ably succeed In suppressing the Insurrec- tion. ‘When interviewed today he discussed the condition of affairs frankly and at length. Regarding the reports that Bulgaria was | responsible for the outbreak he pointed out that the center of the disturbed area Is nearly 200 miles from the Bulgarian fron- tier and s separated from it by a country largely Inhabited by Turks. “Conse- quently,” he sald, “it is foolish to say that the movement is alded by bands from Bul- garla and it is equally unreasonable to suggest that the Insurgents' arms came trom Bulgaria." Rebel Guns Freach Made. He asserted that as a matter of fact the guns -used by the Insurrectionists are all of French manufacture and that most of them were bought from Turkish officers and men who, recelving no pay, had re- torted to the eale of thelr guns and am- munition to cbtain money. The insurrec- tion was entirely a national Macedonian movement organized by the Macedonian central committee, which in itselt was proof of the shocking condition of affairs due to excesses of Turkish soldiers, who on the pretext of searching for arms en- tered Macedonlan villages to plunder and dertroy. The situgtion in the unhappy villages had teen rendered more desperate by the refusal of the Turks to permit the upem- ployed to leave in order to secure work elsewhere. This goaded the population to the most desperate measures. Premier Petroff declared that the Bulga- rian government was dolng its utmost to maintain peace, ot anly 1s the frontier carefully guard- ed to prevent the crossing of Individual ald he, “but a rigid Inspection at Interfor points, and I am ab- solutely certain that no bands, large or #mall, are passing the frontier at this time, though a few Individuals may, of course, be crossing. Bulgaria is Quiescent. “Little excitement or enthusiasm is evi- dent In Bulgaria now, but should a mas- sacre of Bulgarians occur, or should the movement assume alarming proportions, the population of Bulgaria would naturally become greatly excited, and while the gov- |ernment s most anxious to maintain | peace, it would of course be forced to con- sider Bulgurian popular sentiment. Thus @ most critical situation might arise. 1t appears now, however, as if the movement would be confined, notwithstanding the re- poris of its extension.’ M. Petroff says the Turks are pouring overwhelming forces Into Monastir, suf- ficlent . not only. to suppress the present rising, but to destroy the entire revolution- ary movement, unless the powers inter- | vene to prevent Turkey from taking rigor- ous measures. Rebels to Declare Independence. LONDON, Aug. 15.—~The Morning Post | says the Macedonian committee is about to issue a manifesto proclaiming the inde- peadence of Macedonia and the establish- ment of a provisional government.

KANSAS RIVER IS AGAIN HIGH r Between the Two Town -t the Mouth of the Stream is Again PAPILLION, Neb, Aug Telegram.)—A heavy rain, almost amount- 15, ~(Special ing to a cloudburst, passed through this section last night. The Paplo creek I8 very high and over its banks, flooding part of the lower portion of the town. The water is rising fast here and much trouble is anticipated, as a few residences will be in danger providing the water gets much higher. This flood will not interfere with the Modern Woodmen picnic of August 20, as it will be held on high ground. Water fs even higher at Portal and run- ning over the Missouri Pacific tracks at that place, while the entire low lands are covered with about four feet, which will ruin all crops. Several head of cattle and other stock are reported drowned. Debris Elevated Twenty Feet. FAIRBURY, Neb., Aug. 15.—Details have been recelved here of a cloudburst atong the Nebraska-Kansas line for about elght miles. Two clouds apparently met and for an hour the water fell In sheets. Esti- mates of the downpour are all the way from a foot to two feet. The water swept down Dry branch and Sliver creek, which are usually dry at this season of the year, taking every- thing before it. More than 1,000 trees were taken out by the roots and barns, corn oribe, grain and hay stacks, several droves of hogs and many horses and cattle were awept away. Not a bridge remains on Stlver creek and but one on Dry branch. The residences were all built on high ground, which accounts for the fact that no lives were lost, although there were several narrow escapes. Dead stock and farm Implements were found lodged In trees twenty feet from the ground. Rain Puts Ground in Condition. HUMBOLDT, Neb., Aug. 15.—(Special)— This section was visited by a soaking rain of about three inches, which, following upon one almost as heavy a few days ago, placed the ground in good condition. NEBRASKA CITY, Aug. 15.—(Special)— The heaviest rain of the year visited this county last night, accompanied by a heavy wind which did considerable damage to the corn. The corn crop has made but lit- tle progress this week owing to the con- tinued wet and cool weather. SCHUYLER, Neb., Aug. 15.—(Spectal)— The continued rainy and damp weather of the last week has had a disheartening ef- fect upon haymakers and farmers having srain in shock. But little threshing has been done. Much hay was cut early in the week, but did not get sufciently cured to stack. It will be but poor hay at best, even if mot spofled. Although much grain was lost last year by being left to thresh from shocks the same tinng was done this year with the same result. Yields of small grain still continue to be disappolnting. Yevere Wind in Iowa. SCRANTON, Ia., Aug. 15.—(SPecial Tele- gram.)—A terrific rain and haflstorm, ac- companied by a high wind, struck this city last n'ght. The large store bullding occu- pled by the Essex Buggy company was lifted from its foundation. The plate glass front iIn the Hall & Leases hardware store ‘was completely demolished by flying tim- bers, seyeral showcases also being broken. Beveral people In the storeroom were hurt by the fiying glass. Quinn's mussle factory was entirely destroyed. A large number of barns and outhouses were blown to pleces, and the streets are most all filled with broken trees and other debris. Corn and telephone poles In the track of the storm are blown down. Barns were blown down In the country, houses moved from thefr foundations, and fillly 1,000 acres of corn are ruined, and oats are badly threshed out.. All the orchards in the wake of the storm are ruined. More Trouble at Kansas Oity, KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 16.—Traffic be- tween the two Kansas Citys is practically suspended today, all the tethporary pile bridges erected after the great flood in June having been encangered hy a rise in the Kansas river. The river has been causing more or less trouble for the past two weeks, the result of continuous heavy rains west of Kansas City. Following Iast night's heavy rain- fali, the river rose a foot. It continues to rise rapldly today and it is predicted that it will go four feet higher before the waters fiuully spread out and the river begins to subside. 4 At Armourdale, which was literally wiped out In the June flood, the river Is four- teen fest above low water mark and seven teet hisher than the lowest mark recorded since June. It will have to go fifteen feet higher, however, to reach the town proper, and tho only damage possible is to the bridges. Karrow Escape from Drowning. The current is so swift that rowboats can hardly live In it, and there were sevecal narrow escapes from drowning today by men employed on the bridges to p the drift wood away. Last night's rainfall in Kansas was the heaviest since the flood, and it has sent the Kansas, the Smoky HIll, the Solomon and other streams up rapidly, at some points to the flood stage. At Abilene the water is two feet deep on Fourth and Fifth streets, and many cellars have been flooded. At Manhattan, backwater from the Blue s sending the Kansas up, and if this con- tinues the ferry service there must be abandoned. At Lawrence there was a slight rise in the Kaw, but no damage has been done 80 far. Water Is High at Topeka TOPEKA, Kan., Aug. 16.—A rainfall of tremendous proportions, amounting almost to a cloudburst; fell here from midnight of Friday ontll daylight of today. The Kaw river, which was stationary at noon of Fri- day, is again coming up rapidly, caused by local and western showers. Soft track at Bellevue on the Union Pacific, caused a freight wreck at ¢ o'clock this morning, blocking traffic and making the sending of their trains over the Rock Island in and out of Topeka a necessity. HARVARD, Neb., Aug. 15.—(8pecial)— Another_rain fell last night and will again delay siicking and threshing. Wheat is becoming badly bleached i shock and some growing, thereby reducing the price where sold from the machine. Heavy Rains in Colorado. PUEBLO, Colo., *Aug. 15.—A terrific thunderstorm, accompanied by heavy rain, broke over Pueblo last night. Considerable damage to rallroad tracks between here and the mountains occurred and the Ar- kansas river {s high. The rain sosked and spolled many tons of hay now being har- vested, injured a heavy third crop and a good winter range. Twe Inches of Rain in 1N ROCKFORD, 1ll, Aug. 15—Over two inches of water fell here last night, causing heavy damage by washouts to crops in the Jowlands. At the Chautauqua grounds 1,600 persons in tents were exposed 1o the fury of the .| 8. Robinson, storm, Many tents wers blown down, but there were no casualties, BRIDAL COUPLE STRANDED Cash Faills While Crossing Continent and They Are Forced to Walk to a Relative' HASTINGS, Neb, Aug. 15.—(Speclal)— A smartly dressed ane poilshed young couple stepped from a westbound train here this week and attracted considerable at- tention /by staying about the station all It was supposed that they were waiting to make connections with some road, but that solution played out when they passed the night in the building and the next day found them continuing the silent watch | about the station. Toward the middle of the second day they were questioned with regard to their home and destination and reluctantly gave the Information that they were a newly married couple from New York, enroute to Ban Francisco, and that while in Chi- cdgo they had spent their money more treely than prudently, with the result that they were about stranded at this point. They telegraphed to New York asking frelatives for assistance, but recelved no reply. Meanwhile it was learned that the young woman was quite well educated, an excellent musiclan and an altogether charming person. Abandoning the hope of recelving financial assistance from their relatives in the east, they vouchsafed the information that an uncle of the young man lives near Holdrege and to him they applied by telegraph for assistance, with results as futile as had been the applica- tion to New York. The passengers at the station meanwhile, entertaining a vein of sympathy toward the young woman In her predicament, rajsed a purse to pay her fare to Hol- drege, but their sympathy did not include the young husband, and his transportation was unprovided for. With tears in her eyes apd affection beaming through them, the woman refused the kindness her husband might not share. They started for Hol- drege afoot and penniless, but apparently with a wealth of conjugal affection. LIBEL SUITS COMING THICK All Are the Outgrowth of Congres- sio; Campaign in Third Distriet. SI0UX CITY, Ta., Aug. 15.—(Special Tele- gram.)—Three more libel sults growing out of the hot congressional campalgn of the fall of 1902 between J. J.
