The Powers Tired OF the sultan's Idle
Prnmises.

LONDON. December st Is announc-
ed on excellent authority that the us-
spatch of the Turkish commission 10
inquire into the outrages IN Armenia
will probably not be considered suiilclent
to satisfy European powers. AdVlces re-
ceived here tend to show that more ener-
getc action will be necessary 10 secure
the enforcement of the Berlin treaty.
The Times to-day says II believes that
tho Earl of Kimberley, secretary of state
for foreign affairs, has made energetic
representations to the Porte 70 the e.
feet that the latter'S orders TO the TURK
ish commission to make searching IN
auiry into the Armenian massacFes was
not enough, as the report or putey

any public confidence. The Times ADDS
that the Sultan has now come TO recog-
nize the simple truth, and he Is reported
TO be ready TO admit an independent ele-
ment to form part OF the comisslon.
Continuing. the Times says: In The
interests Of truth and justice, we trust
that this report is well founded.
ATHENS. GREECE, December 5.--Ihe
the districts of Armenia where the mas
sacres had occurred, and whose terrible
experiences and tales OF Turkish aroc-
tiles were exclusively cabled TO the AS
ISOLATED Press yesterday, are now locat-

me refugees are fine, stalwart men,
who wandered separately to the mount

succeeded In reaching TrebizOnd and
others reached KerassOon, where they
embarked on board a Greek steamer.
when this vessel arrived at Constantine
pie and at Smyrna the kind-hearted cap
tain concealed them In the hold and
coal bunkers until all danger Of being
captured by the Turkish authorities were
passed.
II was expected that the steamer would
be searched at both these ports, as the
Turks are doing everything possible 10
prevent the escape Of Armenians who
may tell OF the atrocities perpetrated by
the Turkish sOldiery.
The refugees displayed the greatest
emotion and gratitude upon arriving in
Greek quarters. They are all agricultural
