Eventually the steamship Martinique did not call at this port yesterday. Her draught is understood to have been more than to admit of entering this harbor.

A Man Overboard. The S. s. ‘‘Martinique’’ arrived here last evening at9 o’cloek being 3 hours behind th2 scheduled time. This delay was occasioned by the Bostswain of said ship falling overboard. It is said that whilst he was conducting some repairs to the gangway at the side of the ship, the skackles of the chains which support- ed the plank upon which he was working gave way causing him to fall in the water. The steamer was immeadiately reversed and the captain ordered a-search which lasted for fully three hours but without any success. The piec2 of gang- way that he was working on also th2 life buoys thrown to him at thz time of the incident were found. This unfortu- nate occurence occured while the ship was about 18 miles from St. Thomas.— West End News, Dec 7th. St. Thomas News The American -pleasure yscht ‘‘Poin- settia’” of Los Angelos, from Funchal, homeward boand, was compelled to take refuge at this port this morning owing to having experienced bad weather in the vicinity of Sombrero Island. The ‘Poinsettia’ got her boom damaged in the storm. A boy who was also injured by the falling boom, is now receiving aid at the Municipal Hospital. The vessel which is consigned to the Ship Brokers’ Association, will undergo repairs here prior to leaving for her des- tination via the Panama Canal. —S¢t. Tho- mas Maal Notes, Dec. 2. The Ladies’ Missionary Society of the Reformed Church held its annual Thanks- giving Offering on Wednesday. Each year on the day before the American Thanksgiving day, the ladies of this so- ciety receive gifts of food from those who wish to pass on some of their bless- ings to those who are in need. The food donated is divided into parcels and dis- tributed among the needy. About 150 large packages containing bread, sugar, tea, cocoa, were mad= up this year and we fez] that again suc22ss has crowaed our efforts. -~ : This good work ¢>ald not be carried on were it not for the croperation of the merchants, American officials, and towns- men who gave so generously.

The Bulletin, 4th Dec. TELEGRAMS. ST. CROIX STA 'IOON. Cork, Deec. sth. —An airplane for the first time has been brought into action against the Irregulars with disasticus resalts to sixty of them entienclied in ambush near Timoieague. A eall fer reinforcements from National trocps brought an airplane to the scene. Sighting the Irregulars, it bombarded them. They endeavoured to make their escape, some into a neighbouring wood, but the air- plane’ circled over thems and raked the fleeing men with machine-gun fire. It is believed that a great majority of the Jrregulars were killed or wounded. ' The Nationals had one man killed. Lausanne, Dee. sth.—Turkey and Eu- rope have apparently drifted so far apart on the great issues of the Near Eastern Conference, that the pessimists have a fruitful field for un:appy prognostica- tions of a complete collapse of the pourparlers ‘and the resumption of war in South Eastern Eurcpe. Such a cul- mination of the conference discus- sions could easily be argued as a strong ,pos:zibility, but any such argu- ment based on a reasonable hypothesis would leave out the fact that Europe needs peace and that Turkey has ¢on- stantly proclaimed her need for build- ing up international relations in acquir- ing capital to develop her immense re sources. The frenzied character of yesterday’s proceedings in which Rus- sia came to the front as the willing champion of Turkish antonomy is indi- cative of the extreme nervousness of Europe and the general unsettled condi- tion, hich provoked feelings of genuin=e dispair on the part of the conference leaders. So long as no actual break oc- curs,. there is hope tha: time will bring conciliatory views. That the worst is anticipated, however, is shown by the appearance here of,a suggestion that a general war could be launched against Turkey by the League of Nations. Sacha resort to force, it is suggested might take the form of a sort of erusade through the issuance of an appeal for the help of all nations so that the war couid end quickly. The Turks are insisting that the Buropean powers should be the first to set forth their desires in the Dar- danelles problems, because the Straits, after all, belong to Turkey and the Tu'k
