ENGLAND TO HELP ARMENIANs.
Strong Representations Made to the
Turkish A m bassador.

A dispatch to the London Daily News
from Constantinople says that it is re-
ported that the Earl of Kimberly, the
British Foreign Minister, has made
strong representations to Rustem Pasha,
the Turkish Ambassador to Great Brit
ain, on the contents of the Porte's circu-
lar, and has insisted upon an honest in
quiry being made into the outrages and
the necessity of better government in
Armenia. His protests, coupled with
the actions of Sir Philip Currie, the Brit
ish Ambassador to Turkey have occasion
ed more anxiety and attracted more at
tention in the matter than anything yet
done

>o"EiSeSiohai Will has Again Re
sumed Operations at Washington.
Both Houses of Congress were called
to order at noon Monday for the regular
winter session. The Senate was ready
for business, but the House had no quo
rum. Interviews with a large number
of Senators and Representatives devel-
oped that the session would probably in
clude little or nothing beyond the regular
appropriation bills. Representatives and
Senators say that while nothing is in
sight on the tariff or the currency on
which the majority can agree something
must be done to provide work outside of
the appropriation bills. The Nicaragua
Canal will receive early attention, as well
as the bankruptcy and anti-opton bills,
besides which the free silver men will
have number of measures.

Dany Of New York and others 10 take the
entire issue at 117.O77. 1t is the expecta-
ton of the treasury officials that the de-
post of gold for the payment OF the bonds
will be made promptly, and. as the under
standing Is that none of the gold is to be
taken from the treasury, an early restora-
ton of the gold reserve to above the
500, OOO, 900 mark will be the result. The
bonds, including premium, will realize the
government about SOS, 100000.
The gold balance, which is now In round
numbers, S57 800, 900, will, If the expecta-
tons of the officials regarding the deposits
of the gold bonds are borne out be in
creased to about 81 10000, 900. Previously,
however, there had been $4,oJO,OOO in
gold drawn from the subtreasury at New
York, presumably to be used in the pay
ment of the bonds. Assistant Secretary
Curtis heard inofiicially over the long
distance telephone from New York that
$4,000, 900 in gold had been deposited in
the subtreasury there for bond payments
The bonds are deliverable as soon as the
gold is deposited, and as the bureau or
engraving and printing has been busy at
work preparing for the issue they will, It
Is expected soon be ready for distribu-
ton.
u
syndicate will take are as follows
Coupons: $50, $4,000; 500, $4,000;
81, 900, $34, $4,000. Registered: $1O.-
900, $15,0O0,00O.
The condition on which the bonds are
accepted is shown by the original propos-
al of the syndicate, which is in the follow
ing terms, minus the names of the COM
panies composing the trust and the de-
nominations wanted:
1--WE hereby propose, under the terms
of your circular of Nov. Is, 1894, To pur-
chase United States per cent. ten-year
bonds described in said circular of the
face value of $50,000,000, and we agree
to pay therefor at the rate of 117.O17 and
accrued interest per 500. This bid is
for the whole $50, 900, 0OO but not for any
lesser amount. We further agree, upon
due notice of the acceptance of this sub
scription, to deposit the amount thereof
in gold coin or gold certificates with
United States Assistant Treasurers at
either Boston, New York. Philadelphia,
Baltimore, Washington, Cincinnati. Chi
cago, st. Louis, New Orleans. San Fran
cisco, in accordance with the terms Of
said circular.
I'VE desire Registered or coupon bonds
in denominations as stated below, and we
wish them to be delivered To us as fol-
lows: S40000,000 at New York, $1,000
900 ut Boston, S3,0O0,000 at Philadelphia,
$2,0v0,O00 at Chicago, and $2.000.0J0 at
San Francisco, or other United States
treasures, as may be approved 10y the
Treasury Department"
The total sum that the Government will
receive for the issue will aggregate
about SIS, 100000, and as the understand
ing is that the syndicate will not take
gold out Of the treasury to pay for the
bonds, n healthy increase in the gold re-
serve will be the result. From the state
ments contained in the bid made by the
syndicate, treasury officials believe that
between $30,000,000 and $i0,000,000 Of
the gold will be paid in at the sub-treasury
at New York, and the remainder mt tho
in Boston, Philadelphia,
Chicago, and San Francisco.

The Life-savinp Service.


Washington dispatch: The cost of main
tenance of the life-saving service during
the fiscal year was 81 ,25S, 221. The mum
Der of disasters, 59i, was greater and
more destructive of vessel property than
in any previous year since the introduc-
ton of the present system. This fact is
due to the large number and extreme vio-
lence of the tempests which ravaged both
the sea and lake coasts. The following
is summary of the statistics of the SER
vice from the introductionof the present
system in 1871 to the close of the fiscal
year.

During last year the telephone lines of
the service have proved more emphatical-
ly than ever before their indispensable
value as an aid to prompt and efficient
lfe-saving operations, and the lines have
been extended and improved as much as
possible. The system continues to attract
foreign attention, and during the year
the details of its operation have been ex-
amined In person by the representatives
OF Royal Commission of Great Britain
who treats of it in his report with warm
commentator and recommends it's adop-
tion In his own country.
