PEACE EFFORTS
IN FINAL STARE
Turk Ambassador to Germany
Recalled by Sultan to Take
Up Negotiations.
CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 29.—The
peace negotiations between the Bulga
rians and Turks at Bagehakeui, near
Chatalja, entered their final stage today
with the arrival of Osman Nizami Pa
sha, Turkish ambassador to Germany,
and the real leader of the Ottoman
peace commissioners. Osman Nizami
Pasha was recalled by his government
because he is regarded as the strongest
man in the empire for the leadership
( of the Turkish peace forces.
As usual, numerous reports were cir
culated throughout the day as to the
course of the parleys. One report, be
lieved to have been inspired by the Ot
toman government, was that the Turks
were to be allowed to retain ‘Salonika
and Adrianople and all of the southern
coast of Turkey In Europe.
Turkey’s democratic political situa
tion is becoming desperate. Seeing
their power waning, the members of
the committee of union and progress
are doing their utmost to stir up dis
cord by making the charge that ths
government Is preparing tn abrogate
the constitution. Dr. Nazim Bey,
founder of the committee, is a prison
er of war in Greece and many of its
Influential members are either refugees
abroad or under arrest here, but the
remaining members are making up in
energy what they lack In numbers.
They charge that enemies of liberty
hre plotting to restore Abdul Hamid to
the throne.
Dog Meat Luxury
In Adrianople
MUTAFA PASHA, TURKEY. Nov,
29. —Meat stripped from the bones of
Etray dogs In the streets of Adrianople
has become ft luxury in the besieged
city, where scores are dead and dying
from famine and hundreds of others
from disease.
A batch of refugees, who made their
■way through the lines at Adrianople at
night, arrived here today in custody of
Bulgarian soldiers with fresh details of
the terrible conditions In the be
leaguered city.
A large section of the city has been
destroyed by fire and In the conflagra
tion many men. women and children
perished. Hundreds of non-combatants,
made homeless by the flooded waters
of the Tunga. Arda and Marita rivers,
stormed the mosque of Sultan Sellin
and the old sultan's palace of Eski-
Serai, which had been converted by the
Turks into hospitals. Wounded sol
diers were thrown into the street by
the half-clad, starving civilians.
There are about 150,000 persons
cooped up in the city, Including the
populace of 80.000, 60,000 Turkish sol
diers and about 10.000 refugees who
hastened there whev. the Bulgarian
army moved southward. These include
Turks, Bulgarian Jews, Armenians,
Greeks and a scattering of Servian
merchants.
Turkish soldiers standing as guards
over the bazaars, the residences of the
governor of Vilayet and the bishops
have joined the rabble In plundering
for food.
Bulgarian shells have destroyed two
of the four lofty minerats of the mosque
of Sultan Selim, the most imposing
mosque outside of Constantinople, and
the rains have ruined much of the
gorgeous Interior decorations.
At the west end non-combatants. In
cluding many women and children,
have perished since the beginning of
the Investment of the city from fire,
famine, flood and Bulgarian shells.
Bulgars to
Modify Terms
PARIS, Nov. 29.—An important mod
ification and one which may be a pre
lude to others probabij’ will be made by
the Bulgarians in their peace terms, it
was stated today in a dispatch to The
Matin from its Belgrade correspondent.
According to this Intelligence, the
Bulgarians will not Insist upon the
Turks evacuating the Chatalja de
fenses of Constantinople, an original
condition to which the Turkish plenty
tentiarles strenuously objected.
Germany has made an Important
movement in the international situation
by opening negotiations with Servla ou
the question of Servla occupying a pot
on the Adriatic coast.

BUCHAREST, ROUMANIA. Nov 29
—Roumania, the only Balkan govern
ment which has remained neutral
throughout the Balkan war. has begun
to prepare for hostilities.
The government today commenced
active military preparations along th
northern frontier, where Russia was

Theater Manager Arrested as Fleeing Banker
LIBERTYHINGESONTEETH
Whether J. M. Long, a theater man
ager of West Point, Ga., is H. W. Par
ker, absconding bank official of Winne
bago, Minn., is being determined today
by an examination of the prisoner's
teeth. The Pinkerton detectives, who
have been searching for Parker for
months, have an accurate description of
every tilling, every bridge, every bit of
dental work done for Parker in recent
years, and if this work is shown in the
mouth of Long, the identification will
be complete. A report of the examina
tion will be received at the Atlanta of
fice of the Pinkertons later today.
Nearly a year ago Parker, then vice
president and cashier of the Bank of
Commerce. Winnebago, embezzled the
funds of the bank and disappeared. A
reward of $1,250 was offered for his
capture and the Pinkerton offices
throughout the country were put on his
trail and furnished photographs and de
scriptions. But Parker seemed to have
made his escape beyond danger of cap
ture.
Long Shadowed by Sleuths.
Early in the spring of this year, a
man giving his name as J. M. Long set
tled in West Point, made friends rap
idly and became manager and proprie
tor of the Grand theater. He soon en
gaged in other enterprises, and was
looked upon as a valuable citizen of
the little town. Yesterday he was ar
rested. under direction of Mayor John
son and private detectives, and locked
up in the station there. The detectives
announced their belief that Long really
was Parker, the absconding banker.
For a long time the Atlanta office of
the Pinkertons has been shadowing the

BELGRADE. Nov. 29.—The Servian

man known as I.ong. A. S. White and
F. C. Mclntyre, two operatives of the
agency, had lived with Long in Car
tersville. before he moved to West
Point, and had kept their eyes on him
ever since. His general description, cou
pled with certain actions and a long
chain of circumstances, gave the Pink
ertons belief that he was the man they
wanted, and his arrest was decided
upon yesterday.
In his cell in West Point, Long stead
ily refused to discuss the case, except to
deny that he was Parker of had ever
been in Winnebago. He expressed con
fidence. th’at he soon would be released.
Friends crowded to the station to as
sure him of sympathy and confidence.
Married Ohio Girl Recently.
Long had married a short time ago,
his bride being a Cincinnati girl, it is
said, though their marriage took place
in Atlanta. Mrs. Long refused to dis
cuss the case with newspaper men, and
would give no details of her past life, or
even her maiden name.
The prisoner will bo photographed
today, and a careful comparison of this ]
picture and that of Parker will be made.
Complete Bertillon measurements will
be taken, and every effort made to
identify him as the absconding cashier.
But more than all else the detectives
rely on the dental examination. If the
prisoner has the same gold crowns, the
same fillings, the same irregularities in
teeth as those described by the den
tist who had done Parker’s work, there
can be little doubt that Long is Parker.
It Is possible for a fugitive, however, to
have his dental work so altered that it
no longer will serve as an identification.

PATRICK PLANS
HIS VINDICATION
Will Not Make Fight For Mil
lions of Slain Man Un
til Clear.
NEW YORK, Nov. 29.—Albert T,
Patrick, who left Sing Sing prison yes
terday on a pardon from Governor Dix
after a ten-year fight for his freedom,
during which he was thrice within the
shadow of the death chair, held a con
ference today with ills attorney, ex-
Judge William W. Olcott, to discuss
plans for his future.
Patrick will not make any fight for
the millions of William Marsh Rice, for
whose murder he was convicted and
sent to prison, until he has vindicated
himself and cleared his name of the
charge of forgery which still hangs over
hie head. Patrick spent the greater
part of the day answering hundreds of
congratulatory messages from all parts
of the country.
Patrick and his wife, who married
him in the Tombs prison after his con
viction in 1902, both beamed with pleas
ure over the sympathetic words which
poured in upon them froip friends and
even strangers.
In his conference with his lawyer,
Patrick discussed various phases of his
plans to refute the murder and forgery
charges which still, in the eyes of the
law, stand against him. During the
years of ills confinement in Sing Sing
the convicted man made plans for his
fight for vindication and these were
explained to Mr. Olcott for his ap
proval.
It was a missing letter from a check
for s2f>,ooo, made payable to Patrick,
which led to the discovery of the Rice
murder tn September, 1900, in this city
and the subsequent conviction of the
lawyer. The forgery charge was
brought against him first, but later a
murder charge was substituted, al
though, according to records in the dis
trict attorney’s office, the forgery in
dictment was never dismissed.
It was alleged that this check, bear
ing the signature of Rice, had been il
legally uttered by Patrick in order to
obtain part of Rice’s fortune.

Writes on
Curing the
Smoke Evil in
Atlanta
(Ireat Losses Are Sus

in the Escape of Val
uab 1 e Heat-P ro -

Smoke.
Written for The Atlanta Georgian
By Paul McMichael
City Smoke Inspector.
article 1.
Smoke is the exhalation, visible
vapor, or material that escapes or
is expelled from a burning sub
stance during combustion. The
word smoke is used Especially to
designate the volative matter given
off when coal or wood is burned,
together with the solid matter car
ried off in suspension therein.
It has been conservatively esti
mated that over 500,000 short tons
or 1,000,000,000 pounds of coal are
used in Atlanta each year. Os this
great tonnage the amount of hard
coal (anthracite) is so inconsider
able as to be almost negligible. Any
solution of the smoke nuisance in
Atlanta which contemplates the
general substitution of bituminous
coal by anthracite, coke, oil or any
other fuel is impractical. The sup
ply of anthracite is limited, and the
mines far distant, with consequent
high freight rates; so that this coal
costs approximately three times as
much per ton delivered as our best
soft coals. Coke is more readily
obtainable than anthracite and is
cheaper, but the market for this
product in the South is practically
controlled by one company, which,
it is reasonable to assume, would
boost the price for all the traffic
would bear as soon as we placed
ourselves where were depend
ent upon coke.
Must Depend on Soft Coal.
The geographical location of At
lanta is such that for fuel supplies
we must depend upon the bitumi
nous coal fields of Alabama, Ten
nessee and West Virginia. In fact,
our accessibility to this great area
of soft coal deposits is one of the
chief factors that has built up At
lanta manufactures.
There may be a few instances in
which no other solution of the
smoke problem is possible except
the change in fuel, but these are
comparatively few in number and
will become proportionately fewer
as all new plants will be properly
designed before installation so as
to use bintuminous coal without
emitting dense smoke.
No hysterical outcry concerning
damage to property or person by
soft coal smoke should ever cause
us to lose sight of the fact that soft
coal is essential to Atlanta’s com
mercial prosperity and any course
of action looking to the abatement
of the smoke nuisance must be
predicated upon the continued use
of bituminous coal in ever-increas
ing quantities.
Fortunately for our hopes of a
clean Atlanta, it has been shown
already by experiment and practl-
