ATLANTIC CITY. N. J., Nov. B. “Rube” Marquard, star pitcher of the j New York Giants, figured in a sensa tional incident here early today when; he was caught in a beach front hotel; with Blossom Seeley, an actress, by the > woman's husband, Joseph Kane. While 1 Kane and two detectives were batter- ! | ing down the door of the room, Mar- I I quard and his companion fled down the I ! fire escape and escaped in an automo- I : bile. Marquard is charged in a warrant sworn out by Kane with "alienation of affections” and with being a fugitive from justice. Charges may be prefer red against Robert Delaney, proprie tor of *the hotel, and Frank Bowman, the night clerk, whom Kane alleges ■ helped Marquard and Mrs. Kane to es- , j cape. Papers were being prepared, it is i said, which will enable the police of any I state in the Union to arrest "Rube.” Kane, who is a New Yorker, booked • Marquard to appear with Ms. Kane, who is known as Blossom Seeley, on the stage in a vaudeville sketch based on Marquard's pitching record last season, wiien he won 19 straight games for the Giants. ”1 was tipped off by friends that it was not a business proposition that was keeping the pair so close together,” de clared Kane. "Later I found out that, my wife and Marquard were traveling; about the country, living as man and I wife.” RESULTS AT PIMLICO. First—Ambrose, 10, first; Cadeau. 4; I Robert Bradley, 4-5.

W WILL HOISBBMIT, BUT FIGHT TOLAST Turns Down Suggestion of Powers That She Treat With Allies for Peace. ; CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. B.—Tur key will continue the war. This deci sion was reached by the ministerial council today after a long meeting at which the future operations were thor oughly canvassed. "We will continue the war until out forces are annihilated,” was the state- Wendell, with Brick- by, form a • mart , ions ‘jroiiii<i-g;iin mg machine S and haw >■' tilblished the reputation of O I being the j greatest duo i Harvard ever 1 had in the i backfield. ment made after the meeting. A ma jority of the council was in favor of" continuing hostilities. Turkey thus rejects the mandate of the powers that she must seek peace directly from the Balkan allies. The Turkish government is willing to rest its fate with Europe, but it is not will ing to enter into humiliating negotia tions with the Balkan federation. Cholera Breaks Out Among Wounded. Cholera has broken out among the wounded Turkish soldiers brought here from the front. This has greatly increased the peril of the city for there is a woeful lack of medical supplies, nurses and doctors. The government may be compelled to resort to conscription to secure enough nurses to attend to the wounded. There are over 35,000 wounded Turk ish soldiers here and hundreds of others 'are arriving daily. All the wounded in the fighting around the Chatalja fort are being brought into the city as rapidly as the traffic facilities admit. Fleeing Turkish soldiers are reported to have burned the village of Siltvri, on the coast of the Sea of Marmora, after massacring all the inhabitants. The Turks are plundering the country, seiz ing all the food and live stock they can find and leaving a trail of complete desolation and death behind them. Assault Continues On Constantinople SOFIA, Nov. B.—Fighting is still go ing on at the gates of Constantinople. Bulgarian government officials an nounced that dispatches arriving from the front today stated that, the Turkish foits at Chatalja are being subjected to a heavy bombardment from the Bul garian batteries. A portion of them are reported to have been captured. The Bulgarian army south of Adri anople has been reinforced by 10,000 eservists, who left Stara Zagora on | Tuesday. General Petroff, commander of the j Bulgarian center, is on the firing line | and is personally directing the attack ! upon the Turkish forts. Czar Ferdi nand’s Bulgarian army has now occu pied practically all of the available heights north of Chatalja. All his heaviest artillery has been massed there, and concentrated between the batteries in the Hollows lies the old | guard of the Bulgarian army and the flower of the Bulgar troops. Considerable belief attached here to the rumor that Adrianople had fallen, but that the information had been kept secret to enable the Bulgars to move their siege guns and troops to the front without the knowledge of Turkey. An other reason expressed for Bulgaria's silence was that the Bulgar government wanted to enter Constantinople, out feared intervention before this should happen if the powers learned of the fall of Adrianople. The first Turkish army of Thrace, which Nardin Pasha, minister of war, commanded, has been all but annihi lated, it is said, and the brunt of the defense of Constantinople now rests upon the Asiatic troops and reservists.

HOORAY! COUNTY JAIL FLOPS TO WILSON; IN “FOLD” TO STICK NOW Another Roosevelt precinct has flop ped over into the Wilson column —the Fulton county Tower. The. 35 moonshiners—north Georgia mountaineers—ln the jail, who, when a straw ballot was taken just prior to the election, voted solidly for Teddy and threw the jail to him by a majority of 18. today "reconsidered their action'' and revoted for Wilson. This switch takes the jail from Teddy and gives it to Wilson. After finding that Georgia had rolled up a majority of nearly 70,000 for the Democratic candidate, and that prac tically all of the north Georgia counties had gone for Wilson, the moonshiners called a meeting this morning on the “run-around” on the fifth floor, and, following several enthusiastic talks, cast a solid Wilson vote. A tall, lank, rugged mountaineer, acting as spokes man, then gave out a statement to the public, declaring the moonshiners were back in the Democratic fold to stay.

S. Brand and Train master J. S. Chapman, of the Georgia railroad, arrived In the city today to watch the result of the Georgia railroad strike arbitration which opens tomorrow morning in the Federal building. William L. Chambers, of Washington, named as the third arbitrator and umpire, will ar rive tomorrow morning in time, it Is thought, to begin the arbitration at 10 o’clock The other arbitrators are Chas. A. Wickersham, of the Atlanta and West Point railroad, representing the railroads, and F. A. Burgess, assistant grand chief of the Brotherhood of Locomotive En gineers, representing the labor unions. Mr. Chambers will hear the evidence as presented in weighty documents prepared by Mr. Wickersham and Mr. Burgess, then invite the arguments and decide tin- case. The arbitrators probably will take a day for the evidence and maybe the same length of time for debate. Railroad people and labor unions alike are watching the result of the conference with great interest, since It will go a long way toward setting a precedent in the discharge of employees by the roads. COUNTERFEITERS FOUND OPERATING IN SONORA NOGALES, Nov. 8. —Word was re ceived here of the capture of a gang of counterfeiters who have been making American money in the mountains .vest of Magdalena.

W Although Har- W ia rd verily has a ’ much better team than Vanderbilt, experts the coun try over predict a small score. Coach Heisman, of Tech, figures that Har vard will not win by over two touch downs. He bases his prediction on the fact that the Crimson coaches will hold back their star men for t h e Dartmouth and Yale games. Heisman also thinks it possible that Vanderbilt may score a touch down if they are successful in pull ing off one’ of two forward passes. EDITION * HEALTH BOARD DEFIES WOODWARD; ORDERS BBEMATOBYDESIRDTED Workmen Begin Tearing Down Huge Smokestack, Making Destruction of Plant Inevitable, While Opponents of Illegal Contract Rage. “Something Rotten,” Declares Van Dyke---Plan to Frustrate Mayor-Elect’s Investigation Charged While His Foes Declare Power Com pany Is Backing Fight. Evading the legal machinery of the city government, workmen prepared today to demolish the old crematory, under orders from the board of health. Before the sun sets it is expected that the garbage plant which James G. Woodward, mayoralty nominee, has done all in his power to save, will be a mass of ruins. Technically, the board of health has ordered the 175-foot steel ! smokestack torn down on account of the danger of its falling. City j Attorney -Tames L. Mayson has ruled that the board not only has the right to remove this stack, but that it is its duty. The stack weighs 83 tons, and when it falls all know that all that will be left of the crematory will be a. mass of scrap iron and rubbish. Ardent Woodward supporters are indignant at this turn of af fairs. By the motion of Alderman A. 11. Van Dyke, a contract to tear down the old crematory was held up for two weeks by the al dermanic board yesterday afternoon. They don’t know what to do now. “Something’s Rotten,” Says Van Dyke. Aiderman Van Dyke declared today that there was “something rotten” in that $276,000 contract with the Destructor Company, of New York, for a new garbage dis posal plant. Mr. Woodward at tacked the contract as illegal be cause it appropriates future in come. Aiderman Van Dyke added to this assertion by stating that the company would make SIOO,OOO too much profit on the plant. Frank Hammond, whom, it is gen erally conceded, Mr. Woodward will name as his executive secretary, as serted that the move to raze the old crematory "is merely to spite Mr. Wood ward." "He has gone North to study garbage disposal systems, and requested, as a courtesy, that the city officials delay tearing down the old crematory until he returned.” he said. "His observa tions will determine his attitude to ward the new plant which is to be built on the site of the old plant It is an official insult to tear down this old plant, leaving the city absolutely with out any crematory, before he returns. "Dr. Gilbert stated in an elevator in the Atlanta National Bank building Monday that everything was fixed to ‘knife’ Mr. Woodward. "When they tear down this old plant and begin to dump all the, garbage around the city, I have Information that injunction suits will be filed against the city by many citizens." Plan To Rush Work On the New Plant. The board of health has an appro priation of SI,OOO to excavate for the new crematory. As soon as the old one is wrecked. Dr. W. L Gilbert said today that work would begin to build the new plant. But Mr. Woodward will have his in ning when he takes his seat as mayor. He has informed members of council that he would not sign the $75,000 check as a payment on the plant next year. Council has provided for a $50,000 pay ment this year. Woodward’s Foes Accuse Power Company. The Destructor Company Jias given a bond of $375,000 that it will carry out the contract. This also provides for a SIOO,OOO electric power plant In connec tion with the crematory If council cares to build this plant when the crematory is completed. It has been/kharged by Councilman Aldine Chambers and others that some of the opposition to the new crematory came from stockholders of the Geor gia Railway and Power Company, who did not want to see the city build an electric plant. Mr. Woodward declared that the bond of the Destructor Company was worth less because It was based on an illegal , contract. Mayson Brands Contract Illegal. City Attorney James 1,. Mayson has backed up Mr. Woodward's statement that the contract for the new plant is Illegal. In answer to a direct question at the meeting of the aldermanle board yesterday afternoon he said he had never advised that the council of one 2 CENTS EVERYWHERE £ A O V RE NO JOHNSON FACING TERM IN PRISON' Jack Johnson, Indicted in Chi cago foi White Slavery, Is Held in $30,000 Bond. , _ T CHICAGO, Nov. B.—Jack Johnson, negro fighter, accused of violation of the Mann act, appeared before Federal Judge K. M. Landis today prepared to give bond In the sum of $30,000. The sureties offered by black champion, however, were rejected by the court and late today It seemed likely that Johnson would spend the night in jail. Johnson, without his attorney, asked the judge to reduce the bond. Judge Landis eyed the negro sharply. "Where Is your attorney?” he asked. "I thought It was only a matter o$ bond and I would need no lawyer,’ 1 Jack replied. "I told you over the telephone last night that the hearing would be held today,” said Judge Landis. "Yes; but I didn't know there was any law tn the matter,” said the pugi list. "I dislike to refuse reduction of you* bond without your attorney present,” snapped the judge. Johnson telephoned for Attorney Ed ward S. Day, his counsel. District Attorney Wilkerson Insisted that the surety furnished be unincum bered property covering the sum ofi $30,000. He refused to accept cash bond, on the ground that it might be for feited. He added also that care would be taken to ward against indemnifying tho property owners against loss. Johnson was indicted on four counts by the grand jury yesterday and ar rested. The penalty for the offense with which he is charged is from one tu ten years in the penitentiary. year could legally appropriate the In come of another year. "You could not mandamus the may or and force him to sign a check in payment of an illegal contract," said Mr. Mayson. "What are we going to do next year with the old crematory torn down and Mr. Woodward refusing to sign tho cheek on payment for the new plant?” urged Aiderman John E. McClelland. “There will be such a nuisance from garbage dump piles that the people will rise up In arms against the city gov ernment.” Aiderman J. B. Everett was the third man. with Aidermen Van Dyke and Mc- Clelland, to comply with Mr. Wood ward’s request and vote to hold up the resolution of council authorizing the destruction of the old cremator)’ at the meeting of the board yesterday. 1 Dr. Gilbert and W. E. Dowd, agent of the Destructor Company, said the new plant would be In operation by June I of next year If the company could get to work at once. The contract allows '3lO workings days for the completioi of the plant
