Allies Quit Fighting; Turkey
Gets Adrianople?Captain
Scott and Brave Companions
Perish
By JOHN J. BREEN.
TAT**- rumors of war, suffra
1/11 gette outrages, assassina*
, tions. aviation fatalities and
the deaths of Captain Scott
and four of his antarctic explorers
made up the burden of the dismal
news from abroad in the year that is
at an end. Among the more cheerful
tidings were the celebration of the
twenty-fifth anniversary of the accession
of Emperor William and thfc wedding
of Princess Victoria Louise of
-Prussia and Prince Ernst August of
Cumberland.
For months the fight, or, rather, series
of fights, between the allies and
Turkey occupied the attention of all
Europe, and for a time it was feared
that some of the great powers would
become involved. After they had
soundly trounced Turkey the allies fell
to quarreling among themselves. Fol*
lowing the signing of a peace pact in 1
London. Roumania Invaded Bulgaria,
and then the allies, like Kilkenny
cats, began to mix it up among themselves.
Turkey viewed with ill concealed
glee the fine old row that start
ed among her former foes. All during j
the war with the allies Turkey Insisted
that she be permitted to hold
Adrianople. Finally, when the allies
ceased quarreling among themselves,
Turkey gained her point and was
awarded Adrianople. While as yet no
final adjudication of the boundary lines
has been signed, there has for months
been a cessation of hostilities, and the
powers have breathed easier. At one
time the peace of entire Europe was
threatened by the pugnacious smaller
countries.
Early in the year the British house
af commons passed the home rule bill
for Ireland. This result was attended
by joyous outbursts in the south of
;he country and hostile demonstrations
jri the north. Some days later the
British house of lords rejected the bill
by a vote of 326 to 61). This result
bad been looked for. but it was said
that eventually Ireland would get home
rule.
Early in February were started the
events in Mexico which have caused
more than their share of woe in the
troubled republic and which threaten

the United States. A band of revolutionists,
beaded by Colonel Felix Diaz,
| besieged President Francisco I. Ma1
deru in his palace, and in a battle
which ensued General Bernardo Reyea
was killed. A few days later the
Mexican revolutionists and government
forces bombarded each other's
positions with heavy artillery. The
revolution gained fresh adherents, apd

Madero agreed to resign the presidency.
Madoro Shot to Death.
After Madero had been arrested by
General Blauquet one of his officers.
General Vietoriano Huerta. commander
of the nationalist army, assumed
the presidency Two days later Madero
and his vice president. Jose Pino
Suarez, were shot to death while being
conveyed from the national palace to
prison. Huerta and his followers at
once disclaimed any participation in
the assassinations.
Huerta's rule was not to t peaceful
long. He tried in vain to secure
recognition at the bands of the United
States. President Wilson refused
to recognize the government that he
set up. Henry Lane Wilson, ambassador
to the troubled republic, was
recalled and later tendered his resignation.
which immediately was accepted
by the president.
In the month of October relations
between Mexico and this country
became more strained. Provisional
rresiueiu auera ui aicaico assumeu
the powers of dictator and dissolved
congress. Fore'gn envoys in Mexico
asked their governments to send warships
to guard their legations. President
Wilson demanded that Huerta resign
and was met by a flat refusal.
Vera Cruz viewed with concern the
assembling of warships in her harbor.
Near the border were massed thousands
of United States troops.
Huerta was beset by enemies in bis
own land. Itebel forces won repeated
victories, and "here seemed to be foundation
for the report that Huerta could
expect no further financial support A
story to the effect that powerful English
interests were helping Huerta was
met by prompt denials. Apparently it
was the purpose of the administration
at Washington to let the rebels and
low funds take care of Huerta.

Although there were several unions
of royalty, the one that attracted the
most attention was the marriage of
Princess Louise, only daughter of the
German emperor, to Prince Ernst August
of Brunswick. The ceremony
took place in the royal castle In Berlin
and was attended in person or by
representatives by all the crowned
heads of Europe. Prince Ernst is a
son of the pretender to the throne of
Hanover, and his great-grandfather
was one of the sons of King George
III. of England.
Other unions of royal personages
were those of ex-King Manuel of Portugal
to Princess Augustine Victoria of
Hohenzollern and Prince Arthur of
connaugnt cousin or King (ieorge or
England, to the Duchess of Fife. On
the 15th day of June Berlin and all
the cities of Germany were in gala attire
to celebrate the twenty-fifth acession
to the throne of Emperor William.
On Aug. 18 the eighty-third birthday of
Emperor Franz Joseph was celebrated
throughout Austria and Hungary.
Suffragette Outrages.
England faced a serious situation in
the campaign waged by the militant
suffragettes. Railway stations were
fired, mall boxes destroyed and bombs
set off In many of the public squares.
Arrests were freely made, but there
didn't seem to be any letup in the
campaign of violence. Those who were
arrested began hunger strikes in Jail
and were hailed as martyrs. Mrs. Em- (
meline Pankburst was sentenced to a
three years' prison term, but later was
released. Then she came to the United
States. For a time she was held up as i
an undesirable at Ellis Island, but finally
was permitted to enter. Her reception
in this country wasn't as enthusiastic
as she had anticipated, and she
didn't stay here long.
