TURKEY CALLED TO TINE
TIE OUTRAGE AT MARSOvAN NOT

Demand Reperation Without Ref
erence to the Counter Demand of
the Porte FOR an Investigation Into
the Charges Against the American

WASHINGTON, April Z. 49, The United
States has taken vigorous action in regard
to the outrages on American citizens at
Marsovan, in the Turkish dominions, and
the violation of the mails OF the United
States legation. The facts Of the case are
as follows: On Jan. 10 last, number of
seditious placards were distributed through
out the region of MarsOvan and Cazarea,
in the center of Asia Minor. On account
OF the alleged seditious movements existing
among the Americans the Turkish authUri-
ties hsoribed the authorship OF the pl0cards
to students of Anatoba college, an Ameri-
can educational institution at Marsovau.
On the night OF Feb 2 the girls seminary
Of this institution was fred and burned to
the ground. There was strong circum-
stantial evidence 70 show that this was done
with the full knowledge if not by direct
act OF the Turkish officials.
A CONSUL SENT TO THE sCENR.
The condition Of the Americans in that
place became so critical that tho United
States consul, Milo A. Jewett, was dis
patched thither from Sivas and the Ameri-
cans in that district have been under his
protection ever since. Dispatches passing
between Minister Thompson and Consul
Jewett at Marsovan have heen repeatedly
violated and formal complaint Of this fact
has been made by the American minister TO
the sublime porte.
The demands for redress made to the
Turkish authorities were met by counter
demands on their side that the alleged sedi-
tious movements Of the American students
should first be Investigated and determined
upon before any efforts were made to dis
cover the perpetrators Of the outrages com
planned or

son ID charged 20 give renewed attention to

are at the present time more than 200
American citizens residing in the Turkish
empire, who have the management of prop
erty to the value of over 81 900 900. Fur-

WASHINGTON, April 7 7.-Secretary Nor
ton has concluded that there are not only
some useless officials connected with the
agricultural department. but also whole div
s!oas that are no longer deemed important.
1t is understood that he will shortly issue an
order aDolishing the quarantine division of
the department, the chief of which
is Robert Blaine. brother Of the
deceased statesman. The secretary takes
this action on the ground that the work Of
the division is not sufficient to continue it
longer.
During the past year the importation of
cattle into the United States has greatly
decreased. The work of this division here.
aftoE will probably be assigned to the bureau
Of animal industry.

Three of them half concealed the loss
with artificial substitutes. They used to
get together in the cloakroom and tell
each other how much more comfortable
they felt, but they never convinced Sena-

Notwithstanding they have failed him
more than once and sent him headfore-
most down stairs almost to his death.
There are funny things about this one
legged business. Henderson of Iowa, the
Dubuque veteran, manages so well that
people form his acquaintance and see
him around for weeks without learning
that he is part cork. Once in awhile the
stump becomes sensitive, and Mr.. Hen
derson leaves the artificial leg at home
for few days to rest himself, while he
hobbies about the house of representa-
tives on crutches, to the amazement of
those who have not known him long. A
senator who manages an artificial leg
without awkwardness is Butler of South

with some deliberation, but not one per-

A few days ago Loreto Villa, in charge
of the cattle herds of the Allison broth
ers, along the Cocopah mountains, left
Black Butte for Campo, Cal. Later, his
mule returned to camp without him. A
search was instituted, which resulted in
the finding of his saddle hanging on a
bush about mile from camp. The Co
copah Indians followed the mules tracks
back to Desert Springs, about half way
between Signal mountains and Coyote
Wells, where Villas tracks showed that
he had got off his mule to water him at
the spring, when the mule, which was a
bad one, got away and ran home, dis
lance of 40 miles.
Villa tried to follow, and when he had
gone about half way wandered off into
the sand hills, where he threw away his
shoes and where his tracks were obliter-
ated by the winds. The tracks of two
other men were also found in the same
sand hills. They are supposed to be
those of two prospectors named Ross
and Williams. These add three more
names to the deserts dead, and these
persisted in sight of the spot where the
Breedlo Il re found dead more than
year ago atIl
