Saturday, however, came the dispatch from M. Bapst, an- nouncing the issuance of the Sultan’s irade accepting the Lorando claim in its entirety, as France demanded. This dis- patch slightly modified the aspect of the situation, inasmuch as M. Delcasse came to the conclusion that the Sultan would now settle the money claims and would, within a few days, produce guarantees which France demanded for their pay- ment. Expect Sultan to Settle. “The necessity for seizing big customs, therefore, became less pressing, although the necessity for occupying Turkish ter- ritory, in order to exercise pressure and compel the Suitan to concede the demands | respecting Turkey’s disregard of French | treaty rights, still remained urgent. The | Government, ' therefore, decided that Ad-| miral Caillard should occupy a couple of | ports on the island of Mitylene, which is conveniently close to Smyrna. It is the | Government’s impression that the Sultan will satisfactorily settle the monetary | question should ~ the customs recipts | prove not sufficient to satisfy the French | demands, and Smyrna can yet be occupied | In the meantime the occupation of the | ports of the island of Mitylene is more | convenient from a military point of view as the French cannot easily be disturbed, whereas, Smyrna, being on the main land, its occupation might have more serious results than desired. The French | Government, however, trusts that the whole controversy will shortly be ar- ranged to its satisfaction, and hopes that the treaty stipulations will be carried out by the issue of irades, such as giving certain French schools permission to in- struct, which thus far has been withheld, and also by giving offici#l recognition throughout the Turkish empire to di- plomas isued by the French medical fac- ulty at Beirout, etc.” _ Admiral Caillard Reports. Following is the dispatch received from Admiral Caillard: “MITYLENE, Nov. 4, 11:40 a. m.—Ar- mored division arrived at Mitylene.” The dispatch does not mention any in- cident atending the landing, but it seems certain that the French commander car- ried out his instructions, which were to occupy three ports of the island and to seize the customs. One cruiser and three torpedo catchers got separated from the squadron, owing to the speed of the latter. The dispatch | boat, Mouette, which had joined the squadron, was sent to meet them and to accompany them to Mitylene. America Watches Events. WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.—The seizure of the Turkish island of Mitylene by France may result in the collection of customs from American ports in part satisfaction of the French claims. To what extent American commerce figures in the trade of Mitylene the State Department is not advised, but the fact that a consular agent is maintalned there is+an im- portant indication that American goods are imported into the island. While American interests are not immediately affected by the action of the French Gov- ernment, the dangerous complications which may arise have undoubtedly caused | the authorities to look into the future and consider what this Government shall do in _certain eventualities. Secretary Hay and Embassador Choate during their conferences to-day undoubt- | edly referred to the Franco-Turkish ques- tion. The time is not yet ripe for the United States to even formulate a policy of actlon. France, it is belleved, was moved to adopt her present belligerent at- titude because of the fact that gland’'s hands are tled in South Africa. Even should the Sultan appeal to Great Britain | to lend her assistance in the preservation | of his Asiatic territory, the London Gov- | ernment would prefer to rely upon diplo- matic protests rather than force. Ger- many’s interests in Northern Syria are such that she would object to Turkish | partition unless she received proper rec- ognition. The possibility of a European war is never lost sight of by the authori- ties and such an advent would naturally deeply affect American interests. For this | reason it is proposed to keep a sharp | watch on developments now that the French have gone so far as to selze ter- ritory. This Government has no desire to force itself into European affairs and for this reason the State Department has not asked the Navy Department to send a ship to the Eastern Mediterranean. kg SULTAN RECOGNIZES AN AMERICAN CONSUL Uncle Sam’s Representative at Har- advan- their | THE EMPORIUM. | RERRRRERRRRRER REERRRRR RRRERE RERRRERE RRE RER RRE RERRRRRE RRR RRRRRRRR RRR RRRRRRRR REERER RRRRRRRE RER RRRRRRRR RRD Buriap.

Fights have been common to-day between the two contin- gents and serious trouble is expected. The El1 Paso and Southwestern road is bullding from Bisbee, Ariz., parallel with the Southern Pacific across Arizona and New Mexico and its entrance to this city must be by the same entrance as the Southern Pacific.~¥ts route leads around the mountain side through a tunnel sev- eral hundred feet higher than the South- ern Pacific. Two thousand Southern Pacific work- men are now laying track in the valley and not a thousand feet away 600 El Paso and Southwestern men are tunneling through a mountain to enter the valley, where there are 500 guards stationed to enforce an injunction brought against the Southern Pacific. FUGITIVE PRESIDENT OF BANK SENDS OFFER Agrees to Return Misapplied Funds if Criminal Proceedings Be Dismissed. NEW WHATCOM, Wash., Nov. 5.—De- positors of the defunct Scandinavian- American Bank of this city have received an offer of settlement from its fugitive president, H. St. John, otherwise known as Dix, who last January absconded after looting it of every cent of deposits and taking a goodly share of the money paiu in for its capital stock, more than $25,000 all told. The offer came in a letter de- livered to-day to Receiver Muir by a man whose identity the receiver was pledged in advance not to disclose. The fugitive says that if the depositors will sign an agreement to dismiss all pending criminal and civil proceedings against himself and other officers and di- rectors of the looted institution he will make a cash payment of 25 per cent of their claims and payment of the remain- ing 75 per cent in quarterly payments, all to be paid within one year. The letter is believed to have come from South Africa. St. John says that Cashier Oleson and_a former attorney for the bank, S. M. Bruce, are with him. g put Has His Exequatur For- mally Conferred. ‘WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.—The State De- partment has been Informed that the Turkish Government has issued an ex- equatur to Dr. Thomas Herbert Norton, United States Consul at Harput, Turkey, who was aBpoimed to that position in June, 1900. Dr. Norton has been without the authority of the Porte to perform his functions for nearly a year and a half, However, through the energetic efforts of Lloyd Griscom, formerly United States Charge d'Affaires at Constantinople, he has been discharging informally for some months past his regular functions in lieu of the formal conferring of his exequatur. Turkey objected to the establishment of an American Consul at Harput on the ground that there was no commerce at that place, but a shor& time ago Turkey permitted the British Government to es- tablish a consulate at Harput and the United States renewed its efforts to se- cure Dr. Norton's exequatur. — ‘What Bargains Will Do, The fourth anniversary sale of furniture. at Pattoslen’s, corner Sixteenth and Mis. sion, has been the most successful in a seriés of successes of this popular houso: The bargains offered have crowded the big store.

NCCUSES HER OF MORE CRIME Massachusetts Chief of Police Tells of Top- pan Case. — Special Dispatch to The Call. BOSTON, Nov. 5—Chief Wade of the State Police sald to-day that Nurse Jane Toppan, now awaiting a hearing on a charging of poisoning Mrs. Mary D. Gibbs at Cataumet last August, had been un- der suspiclon before the four people com- prising the Davis household were taken ill. He added that while the newspapers had commenced with the deaths at Catau- met and traced Miss Toppan in Loweil and Cambridge, the authorities had their attention attracted to a case in Middle- sex County and after investigating the nurse’s life in that county they had been led to Cataumet shortly after the death of Mrs. Davis. Chief Wade sald that Detective Whit- ney commenced an inquiry during the early summer at the request of District Attorney Wel‘rd who had reason to belleve that one of Miss Toppan's patients had not died from natural lc):.usea. For weeks he followed the cases Miss Toppan had treated in Cambridge and Lowell and was accumulating a great deal of evidence cal- culated to confirm the belief that there was something wrong about the nurse’s methods. While Weir and Whitney were in the midst of their investigation in Middle- sex County Mrs. Davis died in Cambridge and Toppan went to Cataumet. Chief Wade then advised Whitney, who was the only officer familiar with what had been done, to go to the Cape and learn what he could find there about the nurse, at the same time keeping track of her movements. CHARLES COLLIER JR. WOULD GO TO CONGRESS Friends of the San Diegan Are Boom- ing Him for the Republican Nomination. SAN DIEGO, Nov. 5.—The announce- ment is made by an evening paper of the candidacy of Charles Colller Jr. of this city for the Republican nomination for Congress in-this district. Mr. Collier de- nies that he has ever said that he was a candidate, but will not speak so stoutly in reply to a question as to whether he ‘will be in the future. The district is unrepresented at present —that is, Congressman Needham, who re- ceived his support from most of the coun- tles of this district, does not now reside within its boundaries, his county having been joined with San Joaquin County in another district. This ground is therefore considered open to all candidates and Mr. Collier’s friends have been urging enter the lists. ———— Roanoke Rye, Honey and Horehound, Get it.
