CHAT OF THE CORRIDORS.

The first proofs Of the Boring Sea correspond
ence were placed in the hands of the State De-
psrtment officials by the Public Printer early
last week for revision. a special detail of De-
psrtment clerks have been working extra
hours upon this correspondence for some weeks
past, in order to meet the requirements of the
convention between the United States and
Great Britain which provides that the printed
case Of the two parties 20 the controversy shall
be delivered in duplicate to the arbitrators
within period not TO exceed three months
from the date of the exchange of the ratifca-
ton Of the treaty. Just soon as Secretary
of State Foster is satisfied that the case of the
United States ia properly revised and printed
copies will be forwarded TO the Government Of
Great Britain, and IN return the United States
authorities viii receive the contentious of Mr.
Gladstone, who has succeeded Lord Salisbury
in the management of Great Britain's side of
the controversy. After this has been done,
three months are allowed each Nation to con-
slider the claims put forth by the other. and in
the same manner each Government will sub
nit counter case, with additional documents
and correspondence in reply TO the case pre-
scented by the other. 1t is understood that

POLITICAL NOTES.

In South Carolina, it is said, the colored
voters will cut an important figure in the State
primaries. When ex Congressman Miller was
in Washington recently be said that the fight
| between the Tillman and anti-Tillman factions
was becoming so intense that both sides would
be glad to get the assistance of the colored
voters on election day. Miller is one of the
most crafty colored politicians in the South,
and he was strong supporter of Harrison at
Minneapolis. He has a contested election case
pending before the present House of Represent
atiyes, and his theory is that if the coiored
voters once get their names on the registration
hooks there will be no difficulty in keeping
them there. He claims that the colored people
are not allowed to register under ordinary cir
cumstances, but the Alliance fight makes it
possible for thousands Of negro voters to get
their names On the poll books, providing the
necessary funds are furnished by the National
Republican Committee 10 efray the registra-

attainments died at his residence il Washing
ton Oh Friday morning, Aug. 49, after a brief
illness, aged 80 years. The funeral took place
from his late residence on Sunday, the inter
ment being made at Oak Hill Cemetery.
DR.. Dovilliers had a notable career. He was
native of France, coming from distinguished
family of that nation bearing the name De
Villiers, which he afterward modified. In his
youth he went to San Domingo with his family,
but they were obliged to leave at the breaking
out of the Instruction. Then DR.. p0viliiers
returned to Paris, where he pursued the study
of medicine. Finishing his medical studies he
came to America and settled in st. Louis
There he rose TO prominence in the practice of
his profession, and did admirable service dur
ing the cholera scourge.
A year before the outbreak Of the war he
took tho position of Professor OF French in
the Naval Academy at Annapolis. When the
war began he went into the battle Of Bull Run
with the Union troops, and performed admir-
able work in organizing and directing the
medical forces after that disastrous encounter
In recognition of his services the Government

TROUBLE WITH TURKEY.

Secretary of State John w. Foster On Fri
day received a cablegram from the United
States Charge d. Affairs at Constantinopie, in
forming him that the house Of DR.. Bartlett,
an American missionary at Bourdour, Province
of Konia, Asia Minor, had been burned, and
that the lives of the missionaries were in dan
ger. He believes that if prompt and vigorous
action is not at once taken the missionaries
will be in serious danger in other places.
The building of DR.. Bartletts residence,
which was burned, was originally stopped by
the local authorities. When application was
made for permission to complete the same it
was refused unless DIR. Bartlett would furnish
a bond guarantee to neither hold religious
worship nor instruct children on the prem. .scs.
The Withholding of the permit to complete thu
residence was claimed TO he under orders from
Constantinopie. The American Legation then
applied TO the Sublime Porte for such permits
sion, claiming that treaty rights Of Americans
extended not only to the purchase of land, but
to the enjoyment OF the same. The permit was
at last granted by the Sultan, and it seems that
Immediately after the receipt Of this permit by
the local authorities Of BOurdour, the house
was burned.
Secretary Foster promptly cabed the Charge
dAffares to make urgent demand for effective
protection, indemnity, punishment of the guilty
parties, and reprimand Of the authorities if
found remiss. The U. S. cruisers Newark and
Bennington, now Oh their way TO Genoa, will
be ordered to the vicinity of the outrage to
support the demand.
Secretary Foster stated that the complaints
of Infringement of treaty rights of American
missionaries in Turkey had been accumulating
since 1883, and in q notable instance that of
the outrage upon the Rev. Mr.. Knapp and DIR.
Reynolds by Moussa Boy in the same province
Of Asia Minor. 1t had taken seven years to
secure the punishment of the offender, and the
United States was now determined to see if
American citizens had any treaty rights which
the Turkish authorities were bound to respect.

According to the veracious Philadelphia
Chronicle, when President Harrison passed
through that city some time ago, the carriage
convey ing him to the ferry was temporarily
delayed at Ninth street. A small newsboy
standing on the curbstone called out to Gen.
Harrison: Mister, give rs rider" "Where
are you going?" asked the Chief Magistrate of
60 100000 of people. "To Camden" was the
reply of the newsboy. Jump in, then" said
Gen. Harrison, and the boy clambered eagerly
into the carriage, his stock of papers nnder his
arm "When the ferry WAS reached" says the
Chronicle man, 1.-THE newsboy presented the
distinguished grandson of his grandfather with
one of his papers as a mark of gratitude, the
gift being accepted with grateful acknowledge
