President Clinton said Monday “we could have a bombing pause” in Yugoslavia if Slobodan Milosevic accepts NATO’s demands for the withdrawal of his troops, the re turn of refugees and the deployment of an inter national security force. Clinton said “there’s plenty to talk about” within the terms set by NATO, which require “at least the beginning of withdrawal of Serb forces.” After a news conference, Clinton conferred with Russian envoy Viktor Chernomyrdin who reported on his talks with Milosevic last Friday. U.S. officials said before the meet ing they had not heard anything from Milosevic that merits seri ous consideration. The president also was seeing the Rev. Jesse Jackson, home from a triumphant mission to Belgrade that won the release of three American servicemen held by Milosevic for more than a month. Jackson criticized NATO for continuing its attacks after the soldiers’ release. “1 read NATO’s response as the idolatry of might. I read it in some sense as the arrogance of power,” he said on ABC’s “Good Morning America.” Clinton spoke at a news conference with visiting Japanese Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi, whose country has contributed $200 million in assistance for Kosovo refugees. Obuchi said it was im portant for the international community to act in concert to find a political solution. Administration leaders hastened to say Clinton was not soft ening the conditions for ending the airstrikes against Yugoslavia, which in 41 days have failed to break Milosevic’s will.

The huge custom win dows at the Starbucks in the city’s Old Port section have been smashed four times in five weeks in what may be a protest against the corporate giant and its coast-to-coast uniformity. Now the windows are boarded up and surveillance cameras have been installed inside and out. “It looks like a war zone,” says Police Chief Michael Chitwood. “I can’t remem ber any time in recent histo ry where one location re ceived so much aggravated criminal vandalism.” Never before has the cof fee giant been treated so bad ly, not even when a grand opening was greeted by pro testers in Madison, Wis., and a petition drive was launched to shut down a shop in Larchmont, N.Y. WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court will try to decide whether people who run away after seeing a police officer can be chased, stopped and questioned. The justices agreed Monday to use a case from a Chicago high-crime neighborhood to clarify on-the-street police powers vs. individual rights. While many Americans might as sume police have the power to chase and question someone who flees at the sight of them, lower courts have been deeply divided on the issue. The justices’ decision, expected sometime in 2000, could resolve that split. At the heart of the dispute is the Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches and seizures.
