4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, JULY 11, T0YS WITH ALL EUROPE Turkey’s Sultan Laughs at Threats of the Concert. ENOWS THEY WILL NOT BE EXECUTED. Confident of His Ability to Defy the Powers and Go Unpunished. GREECE POWERLESS SHOULD WAR B3I RESUMED. Its Half-Starved Army Has Lost A!l of I's Disc'pline and Patriotism, [Copyrighted 1897 by the New York Sun.] LONDON, . July 10. — A week ago ill-informed persons were talking as though a treaty peace between Turkey and Greece was as good as signed, sealed and delivered. Some newspapers depicted the Suitan with a pair of wings and a balo round his head sailing heaven- ward to his well-earned reward. But events have more than justified the Sun’s pessimism. Europe realizes that the job of turning or persusding ihe Turks out of Thessaly, which was to have been accomplished with neatness and dis- patch. kas baely commenced, even’ theoretically. At least a month ago in this correspondence the case for Turkey was set forth argumentively and in de- tail, and this week by a remarkable coinci- dence the Constautinople correspondent of the Standard, who is in closest touch with the British embassy there, has made public a recent conversation with the Suitan in which his Majcs y took almost exacily the same attitude. If the situation has altered in the past week it has not been for the better. Turkisk diplomacy bas been for a moment as conspicnously successful in Constanti- nople as Turkish arms have in Thessaly. The embassadors have been beaten all along the tine, because they used a threat which they knew tuey were not in a posi- tion to promptly carry out, and they knew the Sultan knew it. United rope has the weight and might of a colossal steam- hammer, and the Itan is as well aware of the fact as the Embassadors are. it e also knows itisa part cularly ponder- ous bit of machinery. He has had his hand between ttie hammer and the anvil more than once, and bas seen it descend as though to crush him, yet it has stopped short within an inch of his fingers. If thie hammer shounld ultimately mean busi- ness the Sultan is confident his eye and hand are quick enough to get out of dan- gerat the last moment; and that isthe situation. Other delusions appear to bs cherished in certain quariers. “I cannot understand,” =aid Conduri- otis, the Greek M:nister at Rome, yes ter- aay, “how Europe has forgotten s) easily Turkish methods and habits. 1f Turkey is able to put her fing er to her nose and defy Europe in the matter of reforms without being a bit the worse for her con- tumacy and impudence, do you suppose she will now clear out of Thessaly unles a atrong foot kicks her ont? The powers have so far done notking, and I do not be- lieve they will do more in the future. The so-called perfect accord of the powers does not ex st. If it had there wou!d have been no war. 8o far Conduri s showed himself to be well informed, but it became apparent | that even so sirewd a man and a dip- lomatist cherished the delusions referred to. Hespoke, for instance, of the Greek army as though it exists as a competent fighting force. ““‘Our army,” he proudly declared, *‘was never thoroughly beaten, despite all said | ) | | | | ] MRS.

Threatening Note Frowm the Powers the Turkish Dictator. CONSTANTINOPLE, 1urkEY,July 10.— | The collective note of the powersdemand- | ing a cessation of the obstruction of the | peace negotiations, which was presented | by the Embassadors to the Turkish Gov- ernment, is couched in most severe terms It insists that the frontier bstween Gr eece ard Turkey be as traced by the miiitary | attaches of the embassies of the powers, and emphasizes the unanimous determi- | naticn of the powers 10 secure a prompt conclusion of peace. however, ihis note does not fix a within which a settlement of tne and to ate q testions in dispute must be tinished, as it does not mention the step- it 1s pro- posed 10 takein the event of Turkey not vielding to the wishes of the powers, there | is great doubt @s to whether or not tne note will have the desired « ffect. — Sranee Heplies to the Sultan. PARIS, Fraxce, July 10.—The Cabinet to-day framed a reply to the letter ad- dressed to Faure by the Sultan, asking him to n<e the influence of France io ob- | tain for Turkey a seitlement of the Graeco- Turkish fronter, extending Tnurkish pos- | sessions. The reply was strongly worded | the negative. PRINCE FERDINAKD IN ROME. As the Gues' of Kin; Humbert He Incurs the Grave Displeasur: of the P.pe. ROME, Itavny, Juiy 10.—Prince Ferdi- | nand of Bulgaria has arrived in Rome, | despite the protests of the Fope, and is at the Quirinal, much to the delight of the | anti-clericals. This is the first time since the Italian troops entered the Kternal | City that a reigning Catho'ic Prince has been a guest of the King of Italy in his { capital. | There must be serious motives underly- | ing this visit, which, it is beiieved, is the | first of a series that Ferdinand is about to pay European courts, otherwise he would | not have risked incurring the Pope’s grave | d.spleasure by an apparently wanton dis- conrtesy. The ganeral impression is that Ferdi- nand is once more hankering after a crowa and hae reazon to believe that themoment is approaching when small people like himseif may pick up unconsidered trifles in the universal scramble. Certainly Bul- garia is every bit as worthy of being raised | to the rank of a kingdom as Servia, and it is only a question of time and opportunity | for obtaining her desire. Eopatgs o o CONTEST FOR JZSSE GRANT. Compl cations Over Guano Depisits Sold to His Company Referred to Presi- dent Dicz for Set!lement. HERMOSILLO, MExico, July 10.—Some time ago California capitalists purchased | 2,000,000 acres of land in Lower California. There are extensive guano deposits on the land. Recenily a representative of the syndicate visited the land and found that the property was claimed as being under the control of the Mexican Lana and Town Company, who are opera under a concession gran:el by the Mexi- can Government. | “Ttisreported that the concession recent- | ly granted to Jesss Grant and his asso- ciates, entitie them to the ¢uanoon the tand, The Mexican Land and TownC om- | pany has chartered a coast vessel to cruise | | near the Jand to prevent the other con- | testants from carryin: away any of the | guano.

CARRILLO GAINING MEN AS HE ADVANCES. Responsible Spanish Generals All Decline to Succeed the Bu cher. WEYLER MAY LAY WOUNDED AT LAS VILLAS. Police of Havana Capture Muni- tlons of War Intended for the Cubans. HAVANA, Cusa, July 10,- The march of the army of Gomez westward is contin- uing with great success. General Carrillo, chief of Gomez's vanguard, was seen four days ago on the west side of Hanabana River with 15(0 men. To-day he is re- ported in Havana province with more than 5000 men. The news of Weyler’s recall, sent exclu- sively to THE CALL and the Sun, has cre- ated a sensation in the palace. According to instruc:ions from Madrid the captain- general is going to tender his resignation and await the arrival of his successor. The great difficulty of the Spanish Gov- ernment is to find a successor for Weyler, and this difficulty w:ll prolong Weyler's stay here. General Blanco has refused to come to Cuba. Late iniormation says that Po- lavieja has also declined, on the ground of ill health. General Martinez Campos ais0 refuses the piace. No generalinhizn standin: wishes 1o accept the responsi- bility of the situation Weyler has created. Weyler is accused here of having invented many reports of pacfication to prevent being supplanted by any telf-respecting general, who would naturally retuse to carry on a war in a country that had been officiully *pacifiea.” Wey.er is still in Las Villas, The re- port is current that the cause of his delay in returning to Havana ‘s that he was wounded at Estero del Incaro while land- ing there. At Tumibadero, Matanzas province, the barracks of the Civil guard was taken by the insurgents, who captured all the arms and ammunition. In Havana the Span- 1sh police have captured several hundred cases containing war supplies for the Cubans. A dispatch from Madrid says that Spain is making arrahigements for an increase of naval forces. Accordingtothereportofthe civil government of Pinar del Rio prov- ince, from January 5 to December 3, 1896, 71,000 deaths cccurred there. The inhabi- tants before the war numbered 240,000, s 4 eIrr, BATTLE-DHIP Cape Colony Yakes Enyland an Uicon- ditional Prasent of Une, LONDON, Exg., July 10.—At the ban- qust of 8t. George’s Club, the leading colo- nial club in London, to-n'ght, in honor of the visiting colonial Frime Ministers, Right Hon. Mr. Goschen, First Lord of the Ad miralty, announced that Cape Colony had unconditionally presented a first-class bittle-ship to Great Britain.

CCOL WAV: M _VING FROM THE FAVORED WEST. Light Ralns Fall In Some Sectlons, but It Is Still Torrid In the Eastern States. CHICAGO, Iin, July 10. — About & o’clock this ev ning lightning gave warn- ing of reireshing rain which followed. For a few minutes there was a copious downpour, and the terrific heat spe.l was broken. The maximum heat to-day was 83 degrees. Eight deaths and thirty-four prostrations were reported. The dead are: John Feinal, Justin Syke, Fred Bendep, Joseph Dvorak, Thomas Kirk, a child named Chawrausky, Michael McLaughlin and Thomas Walsh, the first three having been prostrated yes- terday. The humidity was not so great as yes- terday. The Health Office reporis that as aresult of the long-continued hot spell the death rate has increased tremendous- ly among children and sufferers from chronic diseases. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 10.—The intense haat of the pastten daysin the central valleys, due in peart to the stagna- tion of the atmosphere, has been broken by the forward movement of the trough of low pressure from Kinsas to the iake regions, and by the advance of the high pressure area from the North Pacific Coast to Colorado. A fall in tempera ture of 20 decrees in twenty-four hours has been reported from Sioux City and Con cordia. The area in- dicating the fall in temperature had ad- vanced to the eighteenth meridian, ard covers the whole country from that meridian to the Rocky Mountains, except Northern Louis iana, extreme Northeast- ern Texas, Georgia and South Carolina, where the temperature has risen. It is probable that this cooler tempera- ture will re: ch the lower lake region and the Atlantic States Sunday, giving cooler weather for several days. The streets below the weather bureau seem to be buge steamship stokenoles. Several deaths have been indirectlv attrib- uted to the heat here, but it is ditficult to really trace a fatal.ty 10 that cause alone. INDIANAPOLIS, Ixp, July 10.—While the temperature was lower by several de- grees at noon to-day than at any time for the past week, the humidity up to that hour was so great that but little relief was to be bad. Later tne sun disappeared, and intermittent showers accompanied by cooling breezes sent the mercury down 1o a comfortable point. Besides s2veral prostrations this morn- ing three deaths from the heat were re- ported. They are: Oscar Mahew, May Robinson and a man known as “Okla- homa Bill,”” who died shortly after his re- moval to the hospital. EVAN:VILLE, Ixp, July 10.—After an electric storm early this morning, which cooled the atmosphere somewhal, the i1 ermometer shot up to 95 by 11 a. M The sky is overcast, partialiy relieving the ictense heat. The thermometer has not Leen below 90 at miuday here for ten days. MILWAUKEE, Wis, July 10.—A ter- rific wint' and rain siorm siruck Oak Grove last night, leveling buildings and destroying crops. Beriin, Wis., reporled 105 degrees of heat. A cool wave has arrived in Mil- wankee. - PITTSBURG, Pa., July 0.—There were three deaths and several prostrations from heat to-day.
