SCREWS ARE TURNED
ON SON.
In an Official Note the Sultan Is No
tified That He Cannot Adopt
Harsh Measures Because of
the Outrages at Sa-
lo nica.
Parts, May 11.—There was a simulta
neous publication this morning in Paris,
Vienna and St. Petersburg of the of
ficial view of the Bulgarian situation.
It appeared in The Figaro here. The
Neue Freie Presse, nt Vienna, and in
the official organ at St. Petersburg, and
carries out the idea previously cabled
to the Associated press that the powers
are satisfied with the correctness of Bul
garia's course and will not tolerate the
adoption by the sultan of Turkey of stern
measures against Bulgaria on account
of the Salonica outrages. It is pointed
out that the question is not one be
tween a suzerain and a vassal, but one
between Turkey and the powers signa
tory of the Berlin convention. The of
ficial communication sums up as fol
lows:
■Two important points mark the pres
ent status of the imbroglio: I-irst, tiio
Bulgarian government is not responsible
for the Macedonian violence; second,
neither St. Petersburg. $ ientta nor I axis
have the intention to permit Bulgaria to
be held responsible.'’
The communication closes with the
statement that the porte's first duty is
to carry out the general plan for the
Balkan reforms, repress tiie Albanian
agitators and punish lhe murderer of
the Russian consul, adding:
“If Turkey persists In diverting atten
tion by menacing Bulgaria the ambas
sadors of the powers may shortly remind
the porte of what the powers expect.

authoriibs are disquieted at the recent
appearance of band- of American revo

t'hat the Russian authorities of Kats,

TO REDUCE STRENGTH
OF SHIES,
Sir Charles Pilke Thinks Proposition
Should Be Made to France, Rus
sia and Germany Looking
to a Reduction of
Armaments.
London, May 14.—The question of tho
reduction of naval armaments came up
again today in tho house of commons
during a discussion of the estimates.
The speaker suggested that the govern
ment take the first step in proposing a
reduction to other powers.
Sir Charles Dilke. advanced radical,
said he thought this might be possible.
In view of the improved relations be
tween Great Britain and France, those
two nations might talk tho matter over
and subsequently approach Russia Even
if Germane did not agree to a reduction
the three powers might effect something.
I; was- not necessary for Great Brimin
to build against rhe Fritted Stites. it
would bo as great a mistake to count
upon the United States as an enemy,
as to count upon her as an active ally,
for the United State always had been
'.lie great defender of the rights of
neutrals.
Mr krnnld Forster, the admiralty soc
retarv, said all the groat p-wers wore
it . reusing their maritime . reparations,
mainlv Russia.
As-, ording to the available figures
France and Russia, together, wore now
building throe more battle ships than
Great Britain. As tho actual force in
sliips which could be array, d against
Groat Britain ought Io bo the guiding
principle, he denied that the admiralty's
ptoposals were in excess of tho require
ment of the country.

DARK WAR CLUUD IS
OVER ORIENT,
Japanese Arsenals Are Being Worked
Day and Night—Russian Troops
Are Being Massed on the
Banks of the Yalu
River.
Y’lctoria. B. C., May 13.—According to
advices received by the steamer Empress
of India, Japanese arsenals were being
worked day and night, provisions were
being concijjtrnted. coal stored on Tspima
island, and on all sides ft was evident that
Japan, doubting the extent, of Russia's
withdrawal from Manchuria, was prepar
ing for war.
The Hon. Sydney Fisher. Canadian min
ister of agriculture, who was one of tho
passengers by the steamer, and who bad
been in close touch with Japanese royalty
and officialdom, says the war feeling in
Japan is very strong, and warlike prepa
rations wore in view. Tho massing of
Russian troops on tiie ba.nks of the Yalu,
on the pretense that protection is being
acordr-d to timber concessionaires, is caus
ing a strong feeling in Japan, this being
regarded particularly as a menace to Ja
pan.
The destruction by fire of the powder
factory at Tokiofu has led to sinister ru
mors that Russian spies were connected
with the disaster.
Russia continues making extensive mil
itary preparations. T.h? North China
Daily News reports that there has been a
continuous flow of Russian troops travel
inb by train from Harbin to Port Arthur,
while other large bodies have teen mov
ing to the eastern borders of Manchuria,
camping in the vicinity of the Yalu rivet,
which divides that country from Korea.
Tiie warlike movements are causing great
alarm to Chinese officials and an unnamed
Chinese official is quoted as saying that
tiie Russians are preparing for the inevi
table struggle with J iptuh a day which
all Chinese, officials believe to be not far
distant.

Boston. May 17. ('Special.)- A syndicate
has been started, thr " agii a Boston friend
of Atlanta. Ga., university for a $250,000
subscription t" that institution. The orig
inal, or syndicate plans, sent a cheek for
$l5O to President Horace Bumstead, and

range for tiie making up of the syndi
cate. which shmild consist of ten men.
ea 'h giving $250 towards current expenses.
Wli,-n the syndicate is completed, the
original donors add a.nother $l5O.
President Bumstead has written an
open letter to this city, appealing for the
funds, saying that the debt, although
greatly reduced, is still too large and
the endownnent fund is inadequate. He
says the Institution needs slC>,i»)o within

Declares Negroes Will Never Become
Good Citizens.
New York, May 17. —(Special.)—The
Rev. Dr. Parkhurst, in an interview to
day. discussed the negro problem and
tiie national type of the American of the
future.
"Since my return from the south." ho
said. "I have been informed that some
of my critics have accused me of ex
pressing regrets that slavery days were
over. That is not true. I have merely
said that most, of the ‘niggers' are unlit
for the responsibilities of citizenship. I
call them 'niggers.' because that is what
they call themselves and because the
word has been accepted among educated
people in the south.
'"i'he 'niggers' will never be assimi
lated by the nation. They never will
contribute, in any part, toward forming
the Americans of the future. They grow
blacker and blacker every day. Their
color forms a physical barrier which
even time, the great leveler, cannot sweep
“"Persons who talk of asf, ‘? ,ilat^ n Tl m
connection with the race problem £<>
understand what they speak of. Future
generations of our race will be n ‘ t , lt
as we are. The I’hvsieal barrnr that
separates the blacks al high
day will be just as broad and high
throughout all the centuries to come.
FRIARS TO LEAVE PHILIPPINES.
Natives Petition Vatican To Prevent
Their Departure.
Rome, May 17,-There has been a
change In the Philippine islands in t.
friar situation, as there is now a mov
ment in Lite archipelago In favor of I!1 '
bers of the Spanish brotherhoods lhe
national pride of the Spanish ria .!*
brought them to the decision voluntaii .>■
to leave the islands. They felt them
selves. since tiie archipelago has been
administered by the I nitod States, to b
in a position of Inferiority, 'i'he Vatican
has just received several petitions from
the Filipinos asking it to prevent t be < <.•
parture of the friars. The apostolic ; 1 .le
gate in the Philippines. Monsignor . Gm lb
clearly demonstrated In his repol t
matters stand. He said that on one i'
there was the se'i.rm provoked 0J
"Bishop” Aglipay, which is supp"' ' )'■ ‘ >
only ft .irieeii priests, without reputa .
but which is spreading, especially in
country districts. This movement .
hclpe-l by tiie dominant politl al J>nrr.-
trying to persuade the population
bellion against Rome, and saving
the expulsion of the friars is indispens -
lie to independence, on the other side,
tiie de;i iritirr of the friars, wlto now num
ber about four hundred men. would me;'; 1
the leaving of six million t'.-itbilie 'lu

being nd clergy acquainted with the
lunguagf or habits of the natives. 1 lie
Filipino priests, who number 650, arc in
adequate to serve tho parishes and mis
sions, which reach a total of sixty-five.
Mot.signor Guidi. therefore, concludes his
rej ort in fnvor the frlnrs ro;u<i!.unx
until others have been substituted for
them. The subs!'tutlon, however, must oe
slow, as the Vatican wishes the new friars
and priests to be Americans, and tho sup
ply cf sucli men is limited.
Father Rodriguez, general of the Angtis
tinians, who went to tho United Stai' S
for the purpose of selecting Augustinian
friars to go to tiie islands, was able to
send out only two men, because through
out the entire United States the Augus
tinians number only about eight}'-
Negotiations between Monsignor Guidi
and Governor Taft for the purchase of
the friar lands in the islands wore begun,
but they had to be suspended because of
the enormous dlfferen'e in tiie estimates
of the value of the lands given by thj>
official experts and the friars.
