BERLIN, 8ept. 10.—The Tageblatt says the German training ship Moltke, with 400 men on board, left Lisbon to-day for Greece, and adds that she will go from there to Beirut. L e e e ) GERMAN ARMY OFFICERS ABUSE PRIVATE SOLDIERS Eighty Sergeants Are Convicted and Punished and Other Courts- \ Martial Are Pending. BERLIN, Sept. 10.—Paragraphs similar to the following appear almost daily in the provincial press: Cologne—The court-martial of the Fifteenth Division has sentenced Sergeant Schott to & year in prison and degradation for flogging | privates &nd horsewhipping and kicking them. Twelve artillerymen were sentenced to short terms for assisting him. There have been eighty convictions of sergeants for abuse of privates during the last three months and about 20 courts- martial are pending. The administration of the army is mak- ing the most determined efforts to stop these brutalities, which Herr Bebel, the leader, detailed in_a feroclous three hours’ speech in the Relchstag in the spring. The weak reply of General von Gossler on the foliowing day probably cost him his place as Minister of War, It has long been the theory of military men that a little rough treatment was gdod for privates and cultivated manhood in them. The Emperor never shared these views nor countenanced the cruelties prac- ticed In nearly every regiment. He fs- sued an order most emphatically forbid- ding the {ll-treatment of privates and or- dering the prosecution and severe punish- ment of those guilty of such fli-treatment. B —— Burglars Rob Saloon. The saloon of Edward M. Davis at 400 McAllister street was entered by burglars some time after 2 o'clock on Thursday morning and $25 was taken out of the cash register. Davis closed up the place at 2 o'clock and when he came down sey- eral hours later he discovered his loss. It is supposed that the burglars hid them- selves in the rear of the place and then broke open the till as soon as Davis left. The police are working on the case, but have no clew to the burgars, ————— Charge Japanese With Murder.

William Steele, aged 30 years, a car- penter by occupation, committed suicide yesterday afternoon by cutting his throat with a razor in a vacant lot at the foot of Sixth street. He was discovered by a passerby, who rang for an ambulance. Bteele was taken to the Emergency Hos- pital, but he died on the operating table. The suicide had been out of employment for several months and this caused him to become despondent and led to the rash lact BELIEVES POPE DIED OF CANGER Dr. Cardereili Takes Is- WAR ra Turkey Heeds American Demand for the Removal of Vali of Beirut. — Continued From Page 1, Column 5. dren were brutally flogged by the soldiers latter said the situation there was quiet- er.

He fortifies his statement with arguments based on his own experience and that of authorities such as Trousseau, Frankel and Zagari, to show that all the symptoms of the illness of Pope Leo as stated in bulletins by Drs. Lappon! and Mazzoni lead to the conclusion that the late Pope was not affected by pleurisy or pleuro-pneufonta. Profesor Carderelli affirms that from the moment blood liquld appears in the pleura and through thoracentesis, especially when the fluid gathers deceitfully without pain or fever or manifest cause of pleurisy, the diagnosis of pleurisy must be exclyd- ed, and that when the liquid forms in the right pleura it usually indicates can- cer or hydrothorax in aged people. There are forms of senile pleurisy or pneumonia, he continues, in which fever, cough are lacking, but these are almost without exception of a tuberculous na- ture, The declaration that the post mor- tem examination confirmed the diagno- sis made by Drs. Lapponi and Mazzoni, the professor declares, is not sufficient, as only careful microscopic examination in these cases can establish the real af- fection of the pleura. The professor's statement consludes as follows; Hermatic serum gathered deceitfully with- out fever, pain or cough in an old man of 94, With diminishing strensth, should have made the doctors think of cancer of the pleura or tuberculous hydrothorax instead of ~pleurisy, pleuro-pneumonia_or senile pulmonary hepati- zation, but it is impossible to make a dlagno- sis without having seen the patient and with- out precise data on the chemical nature of the compo 1 d taken from the pleura.

This informant says the Christlan in- | habitants are terror-stricken, houfly fear- |ing a general massacre by the Mussul- | mans, whose fanatical hatred of the Christians has reached the highest point. The shops are closed in Monastir, business is suspended and the streets are deserted. Even the Consuls do not dare to venture outside their homes. The country people | are afraid to come to the city, lest they | be robbed and murdered on the way. | Europeans desiring to see the burned villages are prevented by the authorities | on various excuses. The British Consul of | ers sell their plunder openly, the officers | | ted an offense for which he was sentenced by the Consular court of the United | | States at Belrut to a term of six months | in the Syrian jail. In the early part of the current year he was arrested at Trip- | olf and condemned by the local court for | he same offense to three and a half years' imprisonment. Minister Leishman | probably would do the same. Lelshman has been vigorously urging the Sublime Porte to replace the Governor with some one more capable of preserving order and of giving more efficient protection to | American citizens and interests. In this | course he has the approval of the State Department. | The . Navy Department has recived a| cablegram from Rear Admiral Cotton, dated Belrut, yesterday, stating that the arrival of the Turkish Governor General from Damascus had restored confidence. | The Governor General has warned the lo- cal authorities that he will hold them re- sponsible for disturbances.
