Reports of Excesses by Moslems Lead to Active Inquiry by the Powers. CONSTANTINOPLE, Turkey, June 9. — The foreign diplomats have decided that the amount of indemniiy to be paid by Greece shall be sdjudged by a com- mission of experts. It is expected that strong pressure will be needed to over- come the resistance of the Turkish Gov- ernment o the retrocession of Thessaly. Reports that Great Britain is opposing on religious grounds Turkey’s retention of Thessaly are being circulated here with the view of exciting Mussulman fanaticism. Toe powers contend that as thev guarantee the integrity of Turkey, the latter must respect the integrity of others. In a memorandum submitted to the Turkish Government the powers propose that the crests of the mountains on the reek frontier be occupiea by Turkisn in- stead of Greek troops, and also tbat the demnity be in proportion to the re- sources of Greece. It is further proposed to modify the capitulations or special priv- ileges enjoyed by Greek successes in Tur- key with a view of abolishing certain abuses which bave been the subject of complaint upon the part of the Turks. The two latter questions will be entrust- ed to a commission of experts, and the de- limiting of the frontier will be executed by an international military commission. It now rests with the Turkish Government as to whether peace will be concluded speedily or not, and it is believed thut the Sultzn wili resist as long as possible. The dispatch of attaches of the British, Russian and lialian embassies to Thes- saly with instructions to report upon the situation there is aue to the reports in cir- culation that the Turkish irregulars have committed excesses many villages are said to have been de- stroyed by them. gl o ANGELL'S €Ast UNSETILED.

These also were said to have been satisfactorily ex- plained, and Angell made arrangements to sail to-morrow in the belief that he was persona grata to Turkey. Nothing has been heard, however, from the Porte as to whether it is satisfied with the answer to its inquiries, and the State Department does not want Angell to leave until assur- ances are received that he will be accept- able.

JAPANESE IN SPANISH DUNGEONS. Mikade's Government Will Demand an“ Apology for a Causeless Outrage. TACOMA, Wasw., June 9.—For hoist. | ing a paper Svanish flag when no better could be procured, Japanese subjects in the island of Ladrone have been secretly transported and held in prison. The news | had just reached Japan when the North- | ern Pacific steamship Pathan sailed, but | it created a furor in official circles. According 1o the Z>kai-No-Nihon, a Japanese company, the Nonaka South Pa- citic Traging Company, had been doing | business on Ladrons for some years in | copra ana other products. Ten Japanese live on the 1sland. On New Year's 4 they met in a house with the intention of drinking the bealth of the Emberor of Japan and the King of Spain. As they had no Spanish flag they man- ufactured what was meant to be one out of sirips of paper, and, crossing it with their own national flag, placed both over the door. A Spanish officer, noticing the apoloxy for his own flag, ordered both to be huuled down. This the Japanese re- fused to do, and after some talk the cfficer went away. _Tue Javanese were feeling secure, be- lieving that their arology hud been sui- ficient; butsuddenly the Spanish reap- peared and seized” Mr. Miyasaki, the manager of the company, and the others and took them to Guam, where they are | now being held for insulting the dignity of Spain in hoisting such & travesty on a flag. No trial was accorded them, but they were thrust hastily into a foul- smelling and ill-ventilated prison, and are kept from their friends. Japan is pre- Paring a vigorous protest. - SCORES PERISH IN FLAMES. Fire Breaks Qut in a Chinese Temple at Tientsin, Whero the Populace Is Feasting. TACOMA, Wasi., June 9.—The North- ern Pacific steamship Pathan, which ar- rived here to-day‘from the Orient, brings news of a holocaust at Tientsin, where 100 | or more people lost their lives before they | could escape from a burning building. | In all its details the calamity so closely resembles the Paris fire as to be startling. A feast was in progress in 1 temple dedicated to the Queen of Heaven. The | building had been constructed in a man- ner that gave every opportunity for a | disastrous fire. Inflammable materials | were used and matawnings were stretched | all around the building. Thousands at- tended the celebration, women and chil- dren being in the majority. Suddenly a tire broke out and a panic | followed. “The strons trampled the weak under foot; many who were near the door were hurlea back by others who had for- gotten everything in their anxiety to es- | cape. Mothers neglected their children | and families became separated. The ex- act number of killed will never be known, but it is variously estimated at from to 200. More were trampled under foot than were burned to death. | T BRI RECOMMITMENT OF IHEEL'ILES.‘ Judge Dougherty of Santa Rosa Hendersi an Op nion on the New Enact- | men’. SANTA ROSA, Car., June 9.—Superior Judge Dougherty of Sonoma County has written a letter to Dr. A. E. Osborne, the physician in charee of the Home for Feeble-minded at Glen Ellen, containing | an opinion of much importance to this and othercounties. Judge Dougherty had | been requested to recommit all of the children sent by him to the Glen Ellen institution, thereby making this county linble for $10 a month for each under the act of March 21, 1597, Judge Dougherty holds that the act has no application to cnildren sent to the home because they were fesble minded or_imbeciles, but is limited to an enuirely | different class. The act authorizes the | admission of new classes designated as idiots, epileptics and mentally enfeebled paralytics, irrespective of age, and for this class $10 a month must be paid. 1he con- clusion of Judge Dougherty’s letter is as follows: My construction of section 5 is that the words all other casex” 1s meant for all other cases of idiots, epileptics and feeble- minded paralytics who are not under life tenure, self-supporting, or those who have al- ready paid for their support. If any such have been commitied by me I will take steps lo recommit them; yet I have no recollection of committing any belonging to the new cla: This view of the case, if carried out, will save this county fully $300 a month. FIRES AROUKD DUNSHUIR. Dwellings on the East Bank of the Sac- rcmento River Barely Escape Destruction. REDDING, CaL., June 9.—Dunsmuir has | to-day been anything but a summer re- sort. The heatand smoke from the forest | fires have made it extremely warm and unpleasant. Last night the dwellings on the east side of the river were saved only | by the versistent labor of every able- | bodied mar in town. To-day the forest was burning to the west of Dunsmuir, and the flames are approaching the town. A system of back-firing has placed the town out of danger. | Altday long the Sacramento Valley to the north of this place has been clouded in smoke, The fires near Redding have been stopped by the river. The grain fields of the large Reid ranch had a close call, A gang of men was kept at work all night and barely saved them. NEW TO-DAY! is the world’s only perfect and Non-Intoxicating Mait Extract.
