the Austrian government to stop

tria has received the backing of
Kuropean allies who are Jealous of
the success of Servia, and they
want to prevent any acquisition of
territory by invading hosts of King
Peter I. of that progressive king
dom.

i It would give her an outlet to the
sea and consequently a power over

Constant inople. Nov. 13 'With
the Bulgarian army practically at
the doors of the city of Constantin
ople, and with no hope of relief
from Asiatic Turkey, the porte has
decided to make immediate appli
cation to the Bulgarians for an
armistice, consequently a request
has been forwarded to the front
asking for a meeting of the lead
ers for the purpose of securing
peace.

will not stop their prosecution of
the war except on terms that the
Turkish government could not con
sider with honor. The allied
armies in'end driving Turkey out
of Europe, and in this attempt they
;ire meeting with the assistance of
most Christian people.

Milwaukee. Nov. IS ? The court
has appointed five alienists to in
vestigate the mental condition of
John Schrank, the attempted assas
sin of Kx-President Roosevelt. There
is a Terv general opinion that the
man is not responsible for his mur
derous action and that the ends of
justice will be best served by in
carcerating him in an asylum until
such time as he is healed.
lnfirmation comes from bis form
er home in New York that he has
not been right for several years,
and the court considers it is best
to order the examination before
starting a criminal trial.
