THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER
TROUBLE BETWEEN
FRANCE tND TURKEY
Gaillard’s Squadron Proceeds
to Island of Mitylene.
ORDER TO SEIZE CUSTOMS
France Deems It Necessary to Occupy
Turkish Territory In Order to Com*
pel That Country to Respect Cer
tain French Treaty Rights, Etc.
Paris, Nov. s.—Admiral Gaillard’s
squadron arrived off the Island of Syria
(Grecian archipelago) yesterday and de
tached a dispatch boat, which entered
the port of Syria and received from the
telegraph station a batch of dispatches
containing definite instructions from
the French government regarding car
rying out the sealed orders which were
handed to the admiral previous to his
leaving Toulon.
These dispatches directed Admiral
Gaillard to proceed to the Island of
Mitylene, whence he will seize the cus
toms at Midilli, and at another port.
The squadron is now on its way to
Mitylene and will probably arrive at its
destination today. The foreign office
has not yet received the sultan’s reply
to the note presented by M. Baptiste,
counsellor of the French legation at
Constantinople, following out the in
structions of M. Delcasse. the foreign
minister, under date of Nov. 3. The
correspondent here of the Associated
Press is enabled to make the following
statement:
“When the French government de
cided to send a French squadron to Tur
key, it debated whether to seize the
customs at Salonica, Beirut or Smyrna,
as it was surmised that the receipts of
one of these big ports would be required
to produce a sufficient sum to pay off
the French claims without a long occu
pation, which was considered inadvisa
ble. The occupation of Salonica was at
once dismissed, because it might create
the false impression that France was
aiming to reopen the Macedonian ques
tion.
Choice Fell on Smyrna.
“The occupation of Beirut was also
set aside, owing to the French position
and interests in Syria, where the popu
lation looks upon France as its protec
tor. The occupation of Beirut, there
fore, was certain to create effervescence
and, perhaps, even rebellion. The choice
of M. Delcasse, consequently, fell on
Smyrna, which offers equal advantages
to the ocher ports, without having their
political drawbacks. Saturday, howev
er, came the dispatch from M. Batiste
announcing the issuing of the sultan’s
irade announcing the Lorando claim
settled in its entirety as France de
manded. This dispatch slightly modi
fied the aspect of the situation, as M.
Delcasse came to the conclusion that
the sultan would now settle the money
claims and would within a few days
produce the guarantees which France
demanded for their payment.
“The necessity for seizing big cus
toms, therefore, became less pressing,
although the necessity for occupation of
Turkish territory in order to exercise
pressure and compel the sultan to con
cede the demands respecting Turkey’s
disregard of French treaty rights still
remained urgent. The government,
therefore, decided that Admiral Gail
lard should occupy a couple of ports on
the Island of Mitylene, which is conve
niently close to Smyrna, so should the
government’s impression that the sul
tan will satisfactorily settle the mone
tary question without delay prove un
justified, and the customs receipts at
Mitylene be not sufficient to meet the
French claims, Smyrna can yet be oc
cupied.
Hopes For Early Adjustment.
“In the meanwhile the occupation of
the ports on the Island of Mitylene is
more convenient from a military point
of view, as the French cannot be easily
disturbed on that island, whereas
Smyrna, being on the mainland, its oc
cupation might have more serious devel
opments than is desired.
“The French government, however,
trusts that the whole difficulty will very
shortly be arranged 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 open, which, thus far, has
been withheld, and also by giving offi
cial recognition throughout the Turkish
empire to diplomas issued by the French
medical faculty at Beirut, etc., etc.”
Gaillard Seizes Three Ports.
London, Nov. 3.—Dispatches from
Paris to a news agency here aay that
the French squadron has arrived at
Smyrna and has seized three ports on
the Island of Mitylene. The British
foreign office has had no request from
Turkey, as announced by the Constanti
nople correspondent of the Echo de
Paris, to fulfil the terms of the conven
tion of 1876 by which the exchange for
the Island of Cyprus Great Britain
guaranteed the integrity of the sultan’s
possessions.
TWIN BROTHERS IN PRISON.
Longino Will Be Asked to Pardon the
Wallace Boys.
Jackson, Miss., Nov. 5. —A petition
will be presented to Governor Longino
within the next few days asking for the
pardon of Pearl and Horace Wallace,
twin brothers, who were sent up from
Franklin county last year for murder.
Both prisoners are somewhat cele
brated in the state’s criminal annals,
having narrowly escaped several lynch
ing bees arranged for their benefit, the
oounty authorities being finally com
pelled to bring them to Jackson for safe
keeping until their sentenoes were af
firmed by the supreme court.
The brothers were convicted of killing
a man in a quarrel resulting from a
horse trade. Horace Wallace was sent
to the penitentiary for life and Pearl
Wallace received a 20-year sentence for
manslaughter.
Lumberman Killed by C ars.
Tifton, Ga., Nov. 5. —J. L. Smith, a
well known lumberman connected with
Floyd & Sons at Lumberville, near Tif
ton, was killed while trying to jump
from the southbound passenger train on
the Georgia Southern and Florida road.
Smith had boarded the train to purchase
a paper and before he knew it the cars
were in motion. In jumping his feet
struck a stop post and he fell with his
head on the rail. One hand was cut off
and his head mangled. Death ensued
in a few minutes.
Major Dawes Dead.
San Francisco, Nov. s.—Major H. O.

An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the
California Fig Syrup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

MURBER MYSTERY IN
THE CITY BF CHIGAGU
Ghastly Crime Discovered by
the Police.
WAS VENDETTA VICTIM!
Body of Autonio Napoli, With His.
Head A:most Severed and His Feet
Tied In a Gunny Sack, Found In an
Empty Fiour Barrel.
Chicago, Nov. s.— The body of a
man, whose head was almost severed
from his body, was discovered in a flour
barrel on a strip of prairie near Rice
street and Western avenue today. The
victim’s feet were securely bound in a
gunny sack and the body doubled, from
which it was apparent that his slayer or
slayers had experienced difficulty in
forcing the body into the receptacle. Be
side the wound in the neck there was a
deep gash on the man’s face.
The man is believed to be Antonio
Napoli, who, with 25 other Italian la
borers, reached Chicago last night from
lowa Center, la. The address, “Salva
dor and Luigi M. Nigro, 402)$ Clark
Street,” was found on a letter in the
dead man’s coat. On that firm’s books
was found the name of Antonio Napoli,
and his address was given as Box 943,
Livermore, la.
The man is about 30 years old, dark
hair and ootnplexion; red mustache,
and wore a clay worsted Cutaway suit,
celluloid collar, purple tie, dark brown
shoes. Chief of Police O’Neiil thinks
the man has been the victim of some
vendetta, as a dollar w r as found on the
body.
Later Rocco Cantre, a saloonkeeper,
identified the body as that of Antonio
Napoli. The place where the barrel was
found has been used for years as a
dumping ground.
PENALTY MUST BE PAID.
Georgia Will Send a Mississippi Fugi
tive to the Gallows.
Jackson, Miss., Nov. 5. —Governor
Longino has issued a requisition on the
governor of Georgia for Will Lanier,
one of Mississippi’s most desperate
criminals, who was captured a few days
since at Newnau, Ga, by the town au
thorities.
Lanier was to have been hanged at
Aberdeen on April IS last, but he broke
jail three days before the day of execu
tion and made his escape. Together
with his father and brother, George and
Jim Lanier, the trio murdered the Bid
dle brothers in Monroe county about
two years ago. Tne murder was utterly
without provocation, as the evidence
showed., „ Will Lanier killed the younger
brother, a lad barely 14 years of age,
because he was crying over the death of
his brother, who had been shot from his
horse a few moments before.
After Lanier is returned to Mississippi
it will be necessary for the supreme
court to set a new date for the execu
tion. The case was affirmed ,by the
court at the last session. Governor
Longino has refused to interfere with
the verdict of the court or to commute
the sentence to life imprisonment.
SOUTH AFRICAN WAR.
Lord Kiicheuer Gives Further Details
of Brakeulaagte Engagement.
London, Nov. o. —Lord Kitchener in
a dispatch to the war office, under date
of Nov. 4, giving further details of the
recent engagement near Brakeniaagte,
eastern Transvaal, between the Boers
and Colonel Benson’s column, says:
“The Boers were unable to remove
the guns they captured until a British
ambulance went out, when under cover
of the ambulance the burghers carried
them off. The Boer losses were un
doubtedly heavy, but no reliable report
is obtainable, Colonel Upperman was
killed and Chris Botha was wounded.
The Boers are reported to have behaved
badly to the British wounded.”
Lord Kitchener farther reports that
Cape Colony to the eastward of the
western railway is cleared of Boers,
with the exception of the Fouche-My
burg-Wessels command of 400 men with
which General French is dealing.
America Twenty Years Ahead.* '
New York, Nov. s.—Visitors to the
Shoe and Leather fair at London are

boot and shoe trade is largely dependent
upon American machinery, says the-
London correspondent. One British ex

ahead of us in machinery. Fortunately,
we in England can buy the same ma
chinery as the Americans are using, so
there is still hope for our trade ”

DEL RIO ARRESTED.
Thought to Be In Collusion With the
Colombian Rebels.
New York. Nov. 5.—A Herald dis
patch from Panama says: General Al
ban, governor of Panama, has arrested
Caesar Fernandez Del Rio, a native of
Cuba and acting agent for the Pacific
Mail Steamship company.
General Alban bad learned, it is said,
that compromising letters had been
sent from points in Central America ad
dressed to Von Lindeman, cashier of
the company. He went to the office of
the company and made a demand for
the letters. It was found that they had
not been delivered, bat in a drawer in
Del Rio’s desk, according to the govern
ment, two-<%nvelopes were discovered,
which, when opened, were found to
contain other letters, one to Del Rio
from an insurgent mentioning former
correspondence, and another from Do
mingo Diaz, chief insurgent in the de
partment of Panama.
Del Rio was arrested by General Al
ban personally and placed with common
criminals in an underground celL He
applied, through United States Consul
Gudger, for release under guard until
the steamship company could get a man
here.
General Alban said he would consent
if a deposit of $4,000 in cash was made,
the sum to be forfeited if Del Rio com
municated with the Liberals. Del Rio
was later allowed to go to his office
with a policeman. The deposit, how
ever, was not made. General Alban has
invited Consul Gudger to be present at
the company’s office at the arrival of
the next steamer, to see the mail from
the same addresses opened. General
Alban says he has assurances that the
mail matter is on the way. He has given
the consul a copy of all the proceedings
in the case, including the testimony.
NEW RAILWAY PROJECT.
Surveys For Trans-Appalachian Hoad
Are Completed.
Charlotte, N. C., Nov. s.—Mr. H.
L. Millner of Morganton, a former resi
dent of New York city, is a visitor in
the city. Mr. Millner has in charge all
the preliminaries for laying the pro
posed Trans-Appalachian railway. He
says that surveying parties, which have
been in the field for a good many
months, have now established the route
of the line from Liucolnton to a connec
tion with the Virginia Southwestern
railway, near Butler, Tenn. The road
will run from Lincolnton to Morganton,
then up the valleys of the John’s river
and Wilson creek, crossing the Blue
Ridge at Coffee Gap, 5 miles from Blow
ing Rock.
Mr. Millner states that estimates have
been made for removing every cubic
foot of material along the line, which,
to all intents and purposes, is already
located. He says the railway will bring
coal to Charlotte with a haul of 100
fewer miles than by present transporta
tion and that it will reduce the cost of
coal from 50 cents to SI.OO on the ton.
Work on the road, he says, will be com
menced Inside of two or three months.

BOLD UNDERTAKING.
Two Men Making Voyage Around
World In Indian Dugout.
Apia, Nov. s.— Oaptain J. O. Voss and
A. K. Lnxton, the adventurous Cana
dians who sailed from Vancouver early
in July in an Indian dugout canoe for a
voyage around the world in her, arrived
here safe and sound Oot. 10, having
traveled in that time a distance of 6,400
miles.
After leaving Vancouver, B. 0., they
sailed for 56 days without seeing land
or sail of any description and on Aug.
81 they landed at Penrhyn island. From
there they crnised to Apia, arriving
Oct. 10.
The venturesome travelers remained
but a few hours in Apia—only long
enough to secure a supply of water and
provisions—and then set sail for Sydney
byway of Fiji. Both men were in good
health and expressed themselves as sat
isfied that they would be able to com

BOLD DIAMOND ROBBERY.
Clnciauati Burglars Smash Window
and Run With Tray of Gems.
Cincinnati, Nov. s.— Some time ear
ly this morning burglars broke the large
show window of the Duehme Jewelry
company’s store on Fourth street, be
tween Vine and Race streets, and stole
about $20,000 worth of diamonds.
In their flight they left a trail of dia
monds, indicating the direction they
took. The diamonds stolen were loose
in a tray and the burglars are supposed
to have taken advantage of the noise of
a passing wagon or car to break the
glass and seize the tray and run, as they
overlooked much valuable goods in the
same window.
Has Not Informed Triple Alliance.
New York, Nov. s.— lt is learned
from a reliable source that France has
not, up to the present, informed the
triple alliance of any contemplated na
val action in Turkey, says The Her

MYSTERIOUS MURDER.
No Clew to Slayers of R. A. Owen
at Columbus.
Columbus, Ga., Nov. s.—The coro
ner’s jury failed to solve the mystery of
the death of R. A. Owen, who was
found Sunday morning pushed under a .
negro house on Seventh strpefr-te"“a"a
dying condition from wounds about the *
head, and who died at the hospital sev
eral hours afterward.
The discovery of the mortally wound
ed man was made by a stream of blood
which trickled its way out upon the
sidewalk. Owen was pushed as far ap
under the honse as he could be placed,
being fairly wedged in between the sills
and the ground, aud great difflonlty
was had in getting him ont. His death
is an absolute mystery.
Before he died he mumbled something
about a car striking him, but there is no
record of any street car accident of any
sort. His friends are certain that there
was foul play, as the ground leading to
the house was torn up, as if he was be
ing dragged against his will, and several
of the palings were teg i from the fence, _
indicating a strugg. His skull "was
crushed and there was a deep gash be
hind his right ear. He had $lO on his
person when he met his death. There
is nothing to oonneot any one with the «
deed so far.
