Shukri Pasha, who has held out for manv months against the liun dreds of siege guns of tlio Bulgarians and Servians, is said to have informed the Porte in his message that Adrianople is practically at the end of its supplies of food and ammunition, while there is much sickness, especially scurvy and intestinal disorders, which are ravaging the defenders' ranks. The commander, who has offered such a long and gallant defense, urges either that peace negotiations be hastened, or that an immediate attempt to relieve the city be undertaken from the Tehatalja lines. The Turkish ministry is divided In opinion and will have ditliculty in reaching any solution of the problem raised by the commander of the bcseiged fortress. The ferment aroused by the murder of tlie late Nazim Pasha continues to threaten internal trouble in Turkey. At a service at Constantinople Wednesday in memory of Nazim, the officiating (Mussulman priest pronounced a malediction on his assassins and on "those who have deceived the Sultan of Turkey, the head of the Mussulman faith". ? ? SCORES THE JOB HUNTERS. Senator Tillman Disgusted by Them in WavShington. A Washington dispatch says Senator Tillman Tuesday evinced his displeasure at the persistency of hundreds of office seekers who have flocked to the Capital since the inauguration. With characteristic vigor the Senator condemned the scramble for jobs. He said the situation reminded him of a Bible text: "I have forgotten just where in Holy writ I read it," he said, "but it fits the case exactly and runs something as follows: 'The wild asses of the desert are athirst and hungry. Thev hnvft broken into the erreen corn.' The Senator recalled that the text contained a reference to the "wild asses" trampling down the corn, but he said he would leave that out. He added that he had full faith in President Wilson as a herdsman who would keep the wild beasts from doing any damage. there are that Saltillo and Guntown, in Leo County, 'Mississippi, were struck by a cyclone to-day.

WILL PROBABLY WIN senator tillman apt to get what^Be wants MARTAIN FIGHTING HIM Information from High Authority Puts th? Senior South Carolina Senator Chairman of the Senate's Second Most Powerful Committee, for which He Has Expressed Preference? A special dispatch to The News and Courier says Friday night the final decision of the Democratic steering committee of the Senate, with regard to the committee assignments of Senators, may be reached, though it will not be announced in all probability until Monday. The case which is stirring up the greatest amount of trouble at the last moment is that of Senator Tillman, who nersists in his determination to have the chairmanship of the big appropriations committee, of which he is the ranking Democratic member. It is understood that if Senator Tillman is not recommended by the steering committee for the chairmanship of appropriations, Senator Martin, of Virginia, will be designated for that important place and the South Carolina Senator put at the head of naval affairs. While Senator Martin and Senator Tillman have been friends, as a rule, for many years, the South Carolina Senator believes that the Virginia Senator is making a good fight to displace him as chairman of the appropriations committee. Senator Tillman said to-night: "I am not going to get out of the way. I am more of a progressive than Senator Martin ever dared to be, and last summer, when he was vigorously opposing President Wilson and doing all he could to keep him from being nominated at Baltimore, I was backing Wilson as staunchly as I could; in fact, I believe the attitude of the South Carolina delegation had a great deal to * ?11- 11 1- 1 A. ? i? V. 1 ~ I ao wmi me acmeveineiii ui mt> uui'jination." Senator Tillman is believed to have the warm support of Secretary of State Bryan in his fight to get the appropriations chairmanship. The steering committee is disturbed by the threat that the Pitchfork Senator will appeal to the Democratic caucus and invite it to revolt if the committee denies him what he regards as his right. Tie situation an ong the Senate Democrats 1s tense and dramatic, with pos3bililie3 of a tremendous explosion. Information late In the day indented also that Senator Tillman had won his personal fight to secure the chairmanship of the appropriations committee, the second most powerful committee of the Senate. Persistent efforts had been made for several days to induce the South Carolina Senator to surrender his priority right to Senator Martin, of Virginia, and to take the chairmanship of naval affairs. It was stated Friday night on high authority, aowever, that the place practically was assured to Senator Tillman. ? ELECTS DEMOCRAT SENATOR The Deadlock in New Hampshire Legislature Broken A dispatch from Concord, N. H., says Henry F. Hollis, Democrat, was elected United States Senator by the legislature Friday. Hollis received 189 votes, three more than the number required to elect. John H. Bartlett, (he new Republican caucus candidate, had 120. Representative Bass, Progressive, had 12. The deadlock which had continued since the daily balloting began January 1 4 was broken by three Democratic members from Manchester, who said they had hitherto "opposed the Hollis candidacy on principle," but now felt that it would be wrong to conMnue longer as obstructionists. Two Republican members and all but two Democrats supported the sue cessful candidate. The newly elected senator is a lawyer and a Harvard graduate He is 4 2 years old. He was an unsuccessful candidate for governor and for congress on several occasions. The election of Senator Hollis aroused great enthusiasm in Democratic circles in the United States Senate at Washington. The election of Senator Hollis makes the political complexion of the Senate at present as follows: Democrats 50, Republicans 4 2, Progressives 2. Two vacancies exists from the State of Illinois. Arrangements were made Friday by the Democratic steering comniittee to award the new Senator his quota of committee places. "Good," was President Wilson's exclamation when told of the election of Mr. Hollis. ? ? ? Gave Her Too Much.

The Washington correspondent of The News and Courier says Senatoff Tillman and Smith, of South Carolina, held a conference Wednesday afternoon. After it was over Senator Tillman announced that he had filed with Attorney General McReynolds his endorsement of Mr. James L. Sims, of Orangeburg, to be United States marshal for the district of South Carolina, In addition to that of Mr. J. Wm. Thurmond, to be district attorney, which was filed Monday. Further than this, the senior Senator would say nothing on the subject. Senator Smith made the statement that he had filed with the President and the Attorney General his endorsement of Francis H. Weston, of Columbia, to be district attorney. The Junior Senator refused to amplify this statement. Both of the South Carolina Senators saw President Wilson Wednesday. Senator Tillman presented for the President's consideration certain papers explaining his opposition to the nomination of Charles P. Neill, to be commissioner of labor statistics. It is believed here that there is a decided likelihood that Capt. W. E. Gonzales will bo appointed United States minister to Cuba. There is also an impression that the candidacy of Judge C. A. Woods, of Marion, for circuit Judgeship vacated by the election of Judge Goff to in? senate rrom went Virginia, has made very encouraging headway. Former Governor John Gary Evans had an audience with President Wilson Thursday. Governor Evans says that he himself Is not a candidate for any office. Both Senators Agree on Sims.
