THEIR FRIENDS SURPRISED.

The Conviction of the Native Professors in
Armenia Condemned.
New York, June 19.-At the American
board Of foreign missions in this city it is
learned that the outcome Of the trial con-
in Angora against the Armsnians
charged with rioting in Cesarea' and other
places last spring has greatly surprised the
board. Rev. DR.. 9. II. Daniels. the dis
trict secretary OF the board. said to-day:
"All the prisoners were natives. The two
professors who we're sentenced to death,
Thoumaian, senior professor of the college,
and Kay ayan. are innocent. They were
arr ested and imprisoned Jan. %. and every
request TO see them or give bail for them
was refused. Rev. DR.. G. @. Tracy. presi-
lent of the college, who has just arrived
here, stated hat there was no evidence
connecting them with the issuing OF the
seditious placards. Yet the two native pro-
fessors were not released. If they are now
being declared guilty, 1t must have been
done by the forgery OF the alleged docu-
ments and by petlured witnesses"
A Washington special says Secretary
Gresham was shown the cable dispatch
from C~onstantinople regarding the mntter.
"This is the first news l have received OF
the result of the ~trials,'' said the secretary.

During my recent stay in San FRANCISCO

match between himself and myself and that
the opinion that l was disinclinsd to engage

pressed among them. When this state OF

cluded to adhere to a general courss which

manager who is more distinguished iof
his matches which he does not MAKE
