conclusion rapidly forcing itself jpon

Whether the credit for the coup of
Abdul Hamid belongs to Berlin's sug
gestion or to London's advocacy of

lawless Macedonian bands, the pr)
dominant fact la that the "sick mao

which has attended their «gltation.

There are signs that they will re

But the salient feature of th e situa

hopes certain powers have cherished
of the collapse of the Ottoman em

All calculations as to the future of

BEST EXPRESS
GOMPAIY
NEW YORK - Following the arrest
of three men, charged with being
members of a gang who in the past
few months have robbed the Adams
Express company of trunks in which
were goods valued at SIOO,OOO or
more, the detectives of Brooklyn to
day said three more arrests would he
made, and the chances are that much
of the Btolen stuff will be recovered.
According to detectives the express
company has been robbed through a
system of bogus tags and cheeks
made by a Job printer in league with
the gang. When a trunk was given
to a driver at some of the express de
pots in Brooklyn, he would put on
the bogus tag and check and deliver
the trunk to the home; of an accom
plice.
So clever wi re the thlevey that thP
detectives and Pinkertons had diffi
culty in getting a real clue. Reports
came In daily of the loss of some valu
able trunk or parcel. Then It Was
discovered that a large part of the
stolen goods were being disposed of
In Brownsville, and the detectives ar
rested Fred Wilfert, John Cook and
Alfred Motile.

One of the strongest arguments put
forwartl by French suffragists is the
statement that Ihey are only claim
ing a right which their Hex exercised
In the past and which their training
and capacity lit them to exercise in
Ihi- future- In France an a matter of
fact women have not only had the
Vote but have stood for election as
candidates and in some cases have
