Koy to the Situation Be Advoruing.
Greeks who are following instructions to
avoid display.
Take ltonndnbont Route.
In New York this order Is being car
ried out by a means of roundabout trans
portation to Liverpool and thence to the
Balkan states. As near as can be learne
at this time no more special steamers
bound direct for Periaa, Greece, near
Athens, are being chartered. By moving
to the front in circuitous routes and In
small bands the Greeks will excite less
attention and fool the Turks aa to their
number.
It Is said that Greece can put an army
of 300.000 men In the field within eight
weeks. Just as' soon as the men arrive
at Perlas they are being thoroughly
equipped and sent to the front. In this
detail of warfare Greece Is reported to be
especially well provided, not only in mu
nitions of war, but In money. Reports
received here are that preparations are
being made for a long strife.
DR. HALL MAY CONTEST
. FINDING OF CITY ATTORNEY
Dr. Staoy Hall, who was nominated by
the "progressives" for the Board of Ed
ucation from the Second ward, and whose
nomination the City legal department
held was too Irregular to Justify his
name going on the ballot, is undecided, it
he will test the decision in the courts.
"I have until next Wednesday," said
Dr. Hall, "and while I would personally
:ka to go into the case and show that I
was nominated In regular manner, the
office itself carries no salary and I am
not anxious for the Job, aa my practice
is large."
Dr. Hall said pressure was being
brought to force a contest In the case.
He has held conferences with leading
bull' moosers, but they have reached no
conclusion yet

Forces Are Weakening and Hav-
Ins Hard Time to Keep
Their Ground.
John Grant Pegg, leader of the colored
supporters of President Taft, is being
jwamped with letters from prominent col
oied men all over the country, saying
the support of the colored voters will be
4ven by a big majority to President Taft.
A card was received from the Rev. G.
VV. Prioleau. chapiain of the Ninth cav
tiry, supposed to be a Roosevelt strong
hold, dated at Douglas, Ariz., saying
could that regiment vote their support
.vould be given to President Taft.
Nick Charles, colored organiser of the
republicans of Kansas, has written Mr.
i tigg that the "outlook is good and Mr.
Taft has the support of the leading col
ored men everywhere."
Pegg, speaking of the local situation,
ays the Oboe-Bob Johnson-Slngleton-enton
Bell "machine" has weakened in
us essential parts and that it is "taking
.11 their ability to keep a stiff upper Hp."
While the Obee forces will cast a com
aratlvcly large vote November 5 It is
egg's belief that the negroes of the
lty will in the main stand by the man
whose administration, has been more
..rosperous than any preceding presi
dential administration.
Deb Kilpatrick is
Seeking for Men
Deb Kilpatrick of the contracting firm
it Kilpatrick Bros., who have a big
railroad Job at Gering, Neb., has made
a special trip to Omaha in search of
workmen. ,
k His firm Is experiencing much diffi
culty because a greater portion of the
help, being Greeks. Bulgarians and others
of the Balkan allies, has deserted the
allroad for the military camp.
He has telegraphed to all the labor
centers for men, and having received no
responses he has made a special trip to
Omaha to canvass the town personally.
On account of the shortage of men it is
not likely that he j will be successful.
Kilpatrick wants men in various lines
of railroad construction work, and he Is
offering good wages. .He even promises
to provide transportation.
