THAT PERUVIAN AFFAIR.
The State Department Has Received No Ad-
ditionai Particular.

The State Department Has Received No Ad-
ditionai Particular.
The Secretary of State has received no fur
ther information from Minister Hicks at Lima
in regard to the recent attack on a United
States consulate in Peru. Ii is therefore as
sumed that the trouble is over for the present,
in which event no further action will be taken
by the department until after the receipt of
the mail from Lima, giving full details Of the
occurrence.
There is but one consulate in Peru, that al
Caliao. In this position Mr.. Aquilla ]. Daugh-
erty of Illinois, appointed during Mr.. Harri-
sons administration, June 2. 1880, stands on
the record as consul There are under him six
consular agencies. the occupants of which po-
sitions are doubtless merchants of the country,
who are paid by fees, and these fees seem to be
very small, inasmuch az only two make any re-
turns at all 90 the department of fees collected
and those returns are under SIS year. Prob
ably mauv of them are native Peruvians,
though the names of some Of them indicate the
contrary.
These consular agents are as follows:
Cerro de Pasco-M. c. McNulty, appointed
September 20, 1892
ChicIayo-Alfred Solf, appointed January 8,
1889.
Mollendo-wm. R. Griffith, appointed March
80, 1889.
Paita-John F. Hopkins, jr., appointed July
80. 1891.
Piura-Emiio Clark, appointed October 20,
1884.
Truxiulo-Edward Gottfried, appointed July
2, 1885.

wAsHINGrON's BIRTHPLACE.
1t 10 to he Marked at wakensld and . wharf
Built There.

Col. J. N. Wilson, superintendent Of public
buildings and grounds, has been charged by
Gen. Casey. chief Of engineers, with the duty
Of executing the wishes OF Congress in the mat
ter Of marking the birthplace Of Washington at
Wakefield. Va, and Of providing proper means
OF access to II from the Potomac river. This
commission il in excellent hands and will un-
doubtedly be executed in an entirely satisfAc-
tory manner. As the work 10 to be performed
under the direction Of the Secretary Of State
for instructions.
There has already been considerable delay in
this matter, but tnat there will be no more is
assured now that Col Wilson has il in charge,
foi he is second to no officer in the service in
promptness and efficiency in the performance
Of duty.
An act Of Congress approved February &c.
1851. appropriated 5000 for the purpose of
marking the birthplace of Washington at Wake
field. Va. This was to purchase the old home
stead and to erect a suitable monument thereon.
DR.. st. Clair. the recently deposed chief o! the
consular bureau of the State Department. acted
as the representative Of the State Department
in this matter. He conducted all the arrange
ments for the transfer of the property to the
government and also obtained right of way for
u road to a suitable landing place on the river
In this work he had the able assistance Of Gen.
Casey, who had not then reached his present
position at the head of the engineer corps.
Secretary Eyarts was then at the head Of the
State Department. He was not favorably i'm
pressed with the idea of marking the spot with
monument and submitted instead a plan for
an edifice with four walls and a tower some
thing on the order of a mausoleum. Gen.
Casey did not endeavor TO interfere on this
point. He held that in the interests Of the
public generally a landing place from the river
was an absolute necessity. To provide for this
he submitted a plan for wharf to be con-
structed OF cast-iron screw piles with a timber
deck. This WAS in April, 1884. up to which
time nothing had been accomplished beyond
the purchase of the land and the right of way
TO the river.
And the situation still remains unchanged.
Congress at its last session approved Gen.
Casey's plan for the wharf and authorized the
expenditure of Sil ,l36 for its construction out
OF the original appropriation of $4,000. The
unexpended balance Of that appropriation ae-
cordipg to the records of the Treasury De-
partment is S24.7i2, so that deducting the
amount specifically allotted to the wharf there
remains the sum of Sl3.576 Tor use in marking
this sacred spot in q manner that will stand the
rsvages Of time well as the ll-advised de-
structiveness Of relic hunting vsndas.

The bank will not go into the hands Of . re-

The Outrages on American Citizens IN
Turkey.

-
Turkey.
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 the 10th of January last q number of Sc
the region Of Marsovan and Cesarea. in the
center Of Asia Minor. On account Of alleged
seditious movements existing among the Arme-
mans the Turkish authorities ascribed the
authorship of these placards to the students Of
Anatoba College. an American educational
institution at Msrsovan- On the night OF
the I'd Of February the girls seminary
Of this institution was fired and burned
to the ground. There WAS strong circumstantial
evidence to show that this was done with the
full knowledge il not by the direct act OF the
Turkish officials. The condition of the Ameri-
cans in that place became critical that
United States Consul Milo A. Jewett was dis
patched thither from Sivas and the Americans
in that district have been under his protection
ever since. Dispatches passing between Minis
ter Thompson and Consul Jewett at Marsovan
have been repeatedly violated and formal COM
plant of this fact has been made by the Ameri-
can minister to the sublime porte.
Demands for redress made to the Turkish
authorities were met by counter-demands on
their side that the alleged seditious movements
Of the American students should first be inyes-
tigated and determined upon before any efforts
were made to discover the perpetrators Of the
outrages complained of.
Secretary Gresham has cabled to Minister
Thompson at Constantinople q strong express
sion of the Presidents views on the outrage
and demanding not only prompt repatriation for
the burned seminary, but the punishment Of all
parties found guilty in the matter. Minister
Thompson is instructed that no alleged prior
acts Of students are to affect the rights of
this government in the premises. Minister
Thompson is charged to give renewed attention
to the matter and 70 dispatch . special messen-
ger II necessary to Consul Jewett and see 10 the
inviolability Of official correspondence. The
minister is to act promptly and advise the de-
partment by cable. No effort ID 10 be relaxed
In securing the legal rights Of our citizens ir
Turkey.
II is understood to bs the policy of the
United States to make this Marsovan incident .
test case in our relations with Turkey.
There are at the present time more than 200
American citizens residing in the Turkish en-
pire who have the management Of property TO
the value Of over e2.000, 900 Furthsr sdvicw
from Mr.. Thompson are looked for very
shortly.
