Confirmation of the rupture; of diplomatic relations with Turkey by ' both Bulgaria and Servia has bocn received In ParlB, ac cording to a news agency dispatch. The . Bulgarian torce is reported to have crossed the Turkish frontier and Klnir Ferdinand is said to be hurry ins southward to take command of the allied Balkan troops. News from Sofia, Bulgaria, says thut the rapidity of the concentration of the army has exceeded all expec tations, and developments will now be very rapid. The stock exchange was somewhat affected by the Balkan sit uation owing to the weakness of the contitental bourses. Athens, Oct 9. Representations on behalf of the powers of Europe were today - made to the Greek government hy Austrian and Russian ministers. The concerence was of a friendly na- ture, the Austrian and Russian minis-1 ters declaring It would be Imprudent1 lor the Balkan states to take action against Turkey. By so doing they would risk a great deal and never succeed in obtaining for the Chris tians in Macedonia any more than that which the powers have dcterm- ... Ined to get for them.

I should like to point out however, that the declaration of war by Montenegro was made contrary to the practice adopted by all civilized states. It went against the stlpula- tlon of The Hague convention. - No '... attempt was made to seek the good offices of a third party to find means of avoiding a conflict. The declara tion failed to set forth any real tang- ible cause ' for war.

There la only a faint hope now that representations of the powers will avert general hostilities. Montenegro's move Is considered In Paris to be a part of a prearranged affulr. It la assertod Greece was se lected by the Balkan confederation to force tht issue and Inaugurate the , war. This could easily have been done by Greece setting in the Greek parliament the deputies from Crete, which would have been a casus belli to Turkey, Oreece, however, declined to aeeot responsibility. Montenegro was then picked. She hail a long standing quarrel with Tur key over the boundary question and Turkey's refusal to grant satisfaction whs suited upon as Justification for Montenegro's resort to arms. A prom Inent diplomat said Inst night: "It looks as If our fine European diplomacy has been beaten by the cleverness of the Balkan states. These stales have grown wary of Ot toman promises. "Turkuy's recent declaration to In augurate 'reforms whleh were con sidered iinmtiji factory and the slow ness and hesitancy of certain powers t' Join In urgent Intervention has led the Balkan people to feel that tho bat tlefield whs the only sure means of cx H ting what they felt to be Justice."

Governor Woodrow Wilson, in his speeches at Topeka and here last night replied to Colonel Roosevelt's request at Al bany, N. Y., that the democratic nom inee "prove or retract the declaration that. the. United States Steel corpora tion la behind the third party pro gram for regulating trusts." The governor reiterated that the steel- corporation was "behind the third party program in thought," and added he knew nothing of any finan cial support The governor amplified his position and made a new attack on the tariff policies of both hia op ponents. "I understand from, newspapers," said Governor Wilson In his Topeka speech, "that Mr. Roosevelt was dis tressed by my suggestion the other day that the United States Steel cor poration was back of his plan for con trolling the trusts. "He Interpreted my ' remark to mean that they were supporting him with their money. I was not thinking about money. I do not know whether they are supporting him with their money or not; it does not make any difference. What 1 meant was they are supporting him with their thought and their thought Is not our thought. 1 meant and I say again, that the kind of control which he proposes Is the kind of control that the United States Steel corporation wants. "I am willing to admit that they think It is best for the country. My point. Is that thls Is a method con ceived from the point of view of the very men who are to be controlled." The governor charged that the Roosevelt program was not progres sive at all In its fundamentals and remrtrlwd that'' Elbert- It? Gary, Tiead of the steel corporation, and George W. Perkins, :a director, suggested the' plan of governmental control of trusts. ' . ' i - " .-, "And if Mr. Roosevelt," said the governor, Is willing to have Mr. Per kins suggest how the corporations ought to be reflated, why will he not be willing to take suggestions from the same quarter as to the de tail of the regulation? I have no quarrel with Mr. Perkins except with his Judgment. . GROSSES CONTINENT IOSH0OT Montreal Man Wounds Wo man and Kills Himself at Vancouver. Vancouver, B.

He declared . the olee" said: "What is this trouble I hear about Higgins? I hear he may be defeat- Can't the state committee supply the necessary funds?"" When Scott told the "voice" of the difficulties of getting funds the "voice" replied: "I would rather lose the election In the country than be defeated In my own state," and Scott said the "voice" added that "Harriman is coming to Bee me and I'll see If we can arrange to raise funds to help Hlgglns."

Taft md Horae Taft, , brothers of the resident, gave $175,000, The cam- polgn, ho declared, had cost live times what was anticipated.- "When we started out we expected to spend about $50,000," he told the committee. 1 The other chief contributors to the Taft fund with the respective amounts as given by McKiniey were: s John Hays Hammond, $25,000; An drew Carnegie, $25,000; E.

' Mr. McKlnlcy's records wera read from small penciled memorandum which he dug out of a trousers pocket, lie told the committee they were all he had to show for the handling of the big fund except books kept In the headquarters that covered $134,000 spent directly for ordinary campaign purposes. Mr. McKiniey declared his memory was not good enough to recall all the purposes for which money went out Mr. McKlnley said he did not know the total amount that had been spent for President Taft In the entire cam paign. The amounts given by respective members' of the Taft family were not furnished by Mr. McKlnley nor did the committee ask for further partic ulars. Mr. McKlnley and Ormsby McHarg, the latter contst manager for Colonel Roosevelt in the primary fight held the witness stand throughout the af ternoon. McHarg accounted for the expenditure of $25,000 or $30,000 by the Roosevelt committee In the south ern states where contests were brought. He denied that any money had been spent to Influence delegates or that he knew of the use ot any money In this way either before or at the Chicago convention. Mr, McKin'iy 'admitted freely ihat thei Taft campaign committee hud paid, the cxpehtws of delegates to the Chicago convention, a procedure that both he and Mr. McHarg said ha -J acen a "long standing custom."

' ; , Insurance Commissioner Young was not surprised to learn that Judge Boyd, in Federal court at Greensboro, had thrown the Order of Owls out of court in their Injunction to restrain the insurance department and the chief of police of Charlotte from per mitting them to practice a form of Insurance that Is banned by the state laws. The North Carolina authorities were represented before Judge Boyd by Attorney General Blckett who de murred to the complaint of the Owls, the court properly agreeing with him. It was not expected that the Federal court would do otherwise in a state case. The case was decided against the Owls in the North Carolina courts.

The fight kept up for only a short time, however; as the revenue men were heavily armed with rifles and succeeded In a very short time In forcing the moonshin er to beat a retreat.

Mr. Tegethoff Insisted that more than half of the letters were missing. Including the original of the Harri man letters to Sidney Webster.. Senator Clapp's secretary then re- called that he had returned the cor' respondence to Cornelius N. Bliss, Jr., under registered letter postage and it occurred to him that he might have included by mistake some of the Har- rlman letters submitted to the com-i, mittee about the same time. wired to Mr. Bliss. A prompt reply came back that Mr. Bliss had a bunch of the Harriman letters and was wondering why he had them. T THE EDQY TBUST Holds, However, That New Trustees May Handle the $2,000,000 Estate.

Indianapolis, Oct. 9. Attorneys for tho dofense today continued to out line their defense in the trial of the "dynamite plotters." "These 45 men," asserted William N. Hardin, "were not dynamiters but were, as the evidence will disclose. lovers of peace and quiet" Mr. Harding said at the outset it would be shown that tho executive board of the international Association of Brfdge and Structural Iron Work ers never appropriated a dollar to be used for dynamiting. If any one con nected with the union diverted funds for any Illegal purpose, the guilty per sons, he said, It would be shown were not among the present defendants. "When you have heard all the tes. tlmony," said Mr. Harding, "we think you will have concluded that about three men were engaged In the ne farious work of dynamiting and that these three men already have pleaded guilty." Referring to letters written by Frank M. Ryan, president of the Iron workers union, to various business agents which the government quoted as showing that "Jobs" was the term used to designate explosions against employers of non-union labor, Mr. Harding said it would be shown that "Jobs" meant only now work which offered opportunity for union men to get employment He added, It would be upon the very letters which the government quoted in tshe Indictments that the defense expected to rest Its case. ? .

The scene of the struggle for the world's championship today shifted to Fenway park. There was a sharp note of autqmn air this morning and many fans who came early were equipped with furs and sweaters. Mm-t than 400 saw the sun rise, having waited all night to secure single admission to the bleachers. All were allowed them at a dollar each. Men who made up the line came from all parts of New England. A party -of fur-coated men came down frrun . Manchester, N. H., by automobile last night. Half a dozen from Worcester stood in line with a party of students ' from the University of Maine. The train on which the players came from New York arrived at 1 o'clock this morning, two hours late, having been delayed by a wreck. All breakfasted late and did not try to reach the park before noon. All the players reported to their respective managers in good shape. Wagner of the Sox was a happy captain. "We got the Jump of them and we can do it again," he said. "Tesreau, Mathew- . son or Marquard it will be all the same. Our boys can hit anybody Mc Graw sends along. Watch us today." Joe Wood merely said, "I'm glad we won," adding that he was ready to pitch again as soon as wanted. Moi Graw said, "The series Is far form de-. eided. Remember what Connie Mack said last year after we won the first " ' game"ttth k essjorjl thanwe- swrtl low to make a summer.'-' Mathew son Is expected to oppose Collins in the1 second game. The presence of a southpaw in the box for Boston Is likely to cause a change In the Giants' line-up, Becker taking Devore's place. Betting odds are practically uniform at 10 to 6 on the ,Sox. More demand for the short Giant end is developing, but the betting is light Speculators are asking $40 and $50 a pair for three game tickets In their posses sion. The game by Innings: FIRST INNING.
