MINIS Err TERV6LL STILL SILENT

Armenian Massacre are Exaggerated

WASHINGTON, Nov. T.-The Depart
ment of State is still without information
OF the alleged Armenian massacres In
Turkey, and in the absence OF dispatches
on the subject from Minister Terrell, Is
disposed to consider the accounts re-
ceiyed by Armenians in this country as
highly exaggerated. Minister Terrell has
always proved an exceptionally active
diplomatic officer, and it is regarded as
improbable that he should neglect 10
inform the department of such wholesale
slaughter of Christians as has been re
ported Besides, two American consular
officers of long experience and demon
strated reliability are near the scene OF
the alleged outrages. Officials of the de-
partment. while conceding that there
may have been atrocities on a much
smaller scale than represented, are con
fident that no American interests have
been jeopardized, and, that being the
case, this Government, they consider, Is
not called upon as yet 10 take eny ac-
tive interest In the matter.
