Twenty-three cases had occurred among the troops along the Tcvhatalja lines up to Wednesday. There are many more suspected cases among the wounded. A train load of wounded has just reached here, eight of the soldiers having died on the way, presumably from cholera. The disease is getting a firmer hold on account of the massing of troops, the lack of proper food and the com plete absence of sanitary arrange ments. The danger to, Constantino ple is great on account of the in flux of refugees. Already several suspected cases among the latter have heen reported. The authorities are preparing a spevial quarantine hos pital with 400 beds at Sirkeji. Salisbury Street Car People Put in "Pay as You Enter" Kind.

Providence, R. I., Nov. 11. In the trial of Henri Doslovers, which was begun in the superior court here to day, the authorities hope to solve the mystery of the "headless woman" murder which has remained unsolved for nearly six months. On June 25 last some workmen discovered the headless body of a woman tied with rope and weighted with rocks floating in the Blackstone river near Woon socket. Every effort to find the miss ing head, without which positive iden tification was almost impossible, prov ed futile. . Investigation led to the eonclusion that the body-was that of Angelo Delmarle, who had disappeared mys teriously shortly before the nude body was found floating in the river. As a result of those investigations the man Deslovers, a Franco-Belgian yarn spinner with whom the Delmarle woman lived, was taken into custody a few days after the finding of the body. He pleaded not guilty, but at a hearing on July 27, he was held without bail for trial. It was the supposition of the po lice that the murder of the woman had been committed somewhere in Woonsocket and the dismembered je mains Carried to the river and sunk. But t!,e mystery as to the place of the c ne remains as dark as that rre lating to the disposition of the wo man's head. So far as is known the only tangible evidence connecting Deslovers with the murder is that he was seen to be walking toward the river with the woman on the night that she is supposed to have met her death. Detectives specially employed by Governor Pothier to work on the case recently arrested Mr. and Mrs. De sire Capaert, who lived in the Des lover's.home at the time of the dis appearance of Mrs. Delmarle. Both protest their innocence, declaring that they know absolutely nothing of the circumstances surrounding the move ments of the victim of the murder be fore she left her home. Democratic Control of Upper House Positively Assured. Washington, Nov. 11. The positive announcement of the success of Har rv Lane, the Democratic candidate tor the senate in Oregon, assures Democratic control of the upper house of Congress and places both branches of the national legislature and the presidency in their hands for the first time in 18 years; The addition of Oregon to the Democratic list gives that party 49 senators, or a majori ty of two. In addition to the election of suc cessors to Democratic senators now sitting. Democrats will displace Re publican senators from Oregon, New3 Jersey, Kansas, Colorado, Montana, Delaware and Nevada, and will fill the vacancy in Nevada with a man of their choosing. The contests in Illinois, where two senators are to be chosen, and in Ten nessee and Michigan main to be der cided. The Democrats make positive claims concerning some of the states, but whatever, the result in any or all of them Democratic control of the senate is assured, and the Democrats will be able to shape legislation if harmony prevails among them.
