The circumstance of the renewal of the driebund six months before the necessity arose to give notice of its renewal, or that it had expired, is con sidered to have special reference to the Balkan problem.

Unusual damage done by, waves during a storm was reported today by William Dahlgren, keeper of the Tillamock Rock lighthouse, south of the Colum bia River.

President T,aft has, it is understood here, practically decided upon mak ing a fifth trip of inspection to the Panama Canal zone.

President-elect Wilson has declined to" accept President Taft's offer to place at his disposal one of the navy's big battleships to make a trip to the Panama Canal Zone. It is under stood that Mr. Wilson, while express ing appreciation of the President's thoughtfulness wrote that, with the New Jersey legislature about to meet his duties as governor would make it impossible for him to leave the coun cil, the military authorities Id the Christian vujLager,s respon- sibls for the work, and ordered a de tachment of troops to punish the residents. He troops burned the houses, held many of the villagers for ran- try. day during stormy weather. A pis ton rod broke and was hurled from the cylinder to the top of the engine room. It did much damage, but no one was hurt.1 Repairs are expected to occupy two months. k conbequenre of the accident som, massacred those who refused to pity, assaulted the women, and carrfed on wholesale pillage. .
