I to to THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK, MONDAY, JANUARY 20, 1913. 5 ENVOYS TO RENEW FIGHT Bulgarian Allies Authorized to Declare Resumption of Hostilities If They See Fit. DECEIVED BY SHURKI PASHA. Adrianople Not in Bad Plight As Reported, Through Turkish Was Commander's Strategy.

London. January 20-Full power to declare the resumption of hostilities against Turkey telegraphed today to Daneff, leader of the Bulgarian delegation, and his colleagues by the Bulgarian Premier, J. S. Guechoff, who told them to exercise it whenever in their opinion further peace negotiations became useless. The representative of the Balkan allies will, therefore, directly notify General Savoff, the Bulgarian commander-in-chief, that the armistice has come to an end as soon as it becomes apparent that there is no hope of the peace plenipotentiaries reaching a mutually satisfactory arrangement.

Hostilities will then commence four, days Bulgarians afterward. have now discovered that they have been completely misled in regard to the conditions prevailing in the beleaguered Turkish fortress of Adrianople and have consequently decided that cu essary. prompt change in their policy is necTwo weeks ago they were informed that the fall of the fortress could be expected hourly, but a recent council of war held at Mustapha Pasha, under the presidency of King Ferdinand, came to the conclusion that Shukri Pasha, the Turkish com- mander in Adrianople, had been able to economize the supplies in the to such an extent that the fortresoul be able to resist perhaps for several months more. Shukri Pasha completed the work of deluding the Bulgarians by means of false reports spread by supposed deserters who reached the Bulgarian lines drawn around the city. The commanders of the Bulgaran forces now know the truth and Bulgaria has determined to force a speedy solution, either by concluding peace or resuming the war so as to put an end to the heavy expenditure and to permit the men under arms, who comprise virtually the whole of the able-bodied male population of Bulgaria, to return to agricultural work, otherwise it is thought the next harvest will be lost.

The next meeting of the ambassadors of the European Powers at the British Foreign Office has been postponed until Wednesday, owing to absence from town of two the ambassadors. The Servians have decided to present, tomorrow, to the Powers the memorandum which they have drafted, detailing their desires in regard to territorial changes arising out of the war. Servia will ask to be permitted to occupy permanently the eastern part of the district of Novipazar bordering on the Servian frontier, and also the entire region eastward from the River Drin to Lake Ochrida, as well as the fortress of Monastir, which the Servian troops captured from the Turks after a severe fight. Bulgaria, Servia and Montenegro today presented an ultimatum to Turkey, giving the Ottoman Government fourteen days in which to make a favorable reply to their demands, according to news agency dispatches from Constantinople. Athens, Greece, January 20-A Greek officer who part.eipated in the naval battle between Greek and Turkish fleets off the Dardanelles, on Saturday, and who closely followed all the incidents of the fight, says that during the pursuit of the Turkish war vessels by the Greeks, the battleships Kheyr-eol-Din Barbaressa and Torgut Rels slackened speed and showed a list to starboard.

MURPHY HITS AT CHANCE. Says Ball Players and Not a Manager Make a Successful Team. tion. C. 0.

S. CHARITY CONFERENCE. Chicago, January Chance was successful as a playing manager: I am not prepared to say that he will prove a wizard as a bench manager," says Charles W. Murphy, president of the National League Baseball Club of Chicago, in a signed statement made public here today. Continuing, Murphy declares that the popularity or unpopularity of a manager or owner does not figure in the success of a club; it is a winning aggregation that counts with followers of the game.

The local owner intimates that his club has been reorganized because some of the players were going stale with age. "The passing of Chance, Tinker, Brown, Hofman, Steinfeldt, Overall, Kling and Lundgren from the West Side is not pleasant for me to contemplate," pursued Murphy, "and naturally the fans yell their heads off. But that all comes with the fortunes of the great national game. I wish they could all retire on pensions like members of the police or fire departments, but that cannot be." Murphy says baseball clubs want fewer superintendents criticising from the bench and more enthusiastic, quickthinking players. He alludes to Chance when he says that the time to remove a player is before a game has been thrown away, and not after the game is over and lost.

McGraw, ha SAVA saved many a game by his quick wit in removing a weakening pitcher at the right moment. "My enthusiasm, however," continues the Chicago magnate, "is pretty much confined to those men who can play the game, and not to those who wish to draw pay for telling others how to do it." Murphy states that his 1913 club is good for a batting average of ,800, barring only the pitchers, and says that the lovers of the game who are now deploring the loss of old favorites will be the first to cheer the rejuvenated organiza- "The Evils of is the topic for the winter monthly conference of the Charity Organization Cociety, the Arst of which will be held tomorrow, at 11 a.m., at 105 East Twenty-second street, Manhattan.

OTHER OCCUPANTS UNHURT. Collision Occurred at Trotting Course Lane Crossing, Glendale, Where Seven Met Death. As the result of a collision between the automobile in which he was riding and a Long Island Railroad train at Trotting Course lane crossing in Glendale yesterday, Robert Woody, a wellknown Brooklyn lawyer, is today fined to his room at the Montauk Club with a sprained knee and an injury to his head, which has resulted in temporary ear trouble. Mr. Woody, with his brother, Charles L.

Woody, one of the counsel for the B. R. the latter's wife and two children, Miss Roma, aged 17, and Charles aged 8, narrowly escaped death, when the automobile of Charles L. Woody was glazed by a passing train. The Woodys were descending the hill toward the track.

The gates were up and Mr. Woody says the flagman motioned him that it was. safe to cross. His car was almost on the rails when he saw the train approaching. He jammed down his brakes, but not in time to prevent his car from skidding onto the tracks.

The locomotive crashed into the hood, carried away the front wheels and turned the car around sidewise. Robert Woody jumped as the engine struck the machine, but the others remained in the car and suffered only from shock and bruises. The machine was wrecked, and the Woody family returned home by trolley. They went immediately to the home of Charles L. Woody at 102 East Eighteenth street, where Dr.

E. W. Wilson was sum' moned to attend Robert Woody, the most seriously injured. None of the others was attended, and today it was said at the Woody home that Mrs. Woody was suffering only from bruises and shock, and that the daughter, Miss Roma, sustained a sprained neck, which kept her indoors today.

Master Woody was able to go to school and his father was at his office, apparently none the worse for his narrow escape from death. Robert Woody was unable to leave his club, the Montauk, and was attended again by his physician. in addition to his injured leg, trouble developed in his ear this morning, but it is not regarded as serious. Trotting Course lane crossing, where the accident occurred, already has a death record. On July 2, 1911, a wagon load of people was struck by a train othere.

Five were killed instantly and two others died later as the result of their injuries. According to the Woodys, the gates at the crossing were up, and as their machine approached the crossing the gateman motioned them to "come ahead." At the same time, the motorcyclists, coming in the opposite direction. were also advised to "come ahead." The cyclists got safely over, and when the Woody machine started to cross Its occupants were horrified to see train rounding a curve toward the west. Robert H. Woody, who was operating the car, shut off power, applied the brake and was about to use the reverse when the engine struck, the front of the car, demolishing it.

Robert Woody thrown out and landed on his knees, jus clear of the train. FOLLOWED AN ONION TRAIL. Detective Arrested Ministerial ing Man in a Synagogue.
